Artisan Small Cap Fund stated the following regarding SharkNinja, Inc. (NYSE:SN) in its Q3 2024 investor letter:

“Among our top Q3 contributors were Guidewire, Veracyte and SharkNinja, Inc. (NYSE:SN). SharkNinja is a leading household consumer products company. Its Shark brand focuses on the cleaning category (vacuums, mops, carpet cleaners, etc.) and, more recently, beauty (hair dryers, hair stylers, etc.). Its Ninja brand focuses on food preparation (blenders, food processors, ice cream makers, juicers, etc.) and cooking (indoor grills, ovens, toasters, cookers, air fryers, etc.). We believe a healthy combination of market share gains within existing categories, new category entries and international expansion will drive growth. Shares rallied after reporting strong earnings results, including 31% revenue growth and 600bps of gross margin expansion.”
