Baron Discovery Fund stated the following regarding RH (NYSE:RH) in its first quarter 2024 investor letter:

“During the quarter, we added to our position in RH (NYSE:RH), a high-end retailer of home furnishings and furniture that has a unique vision to transform from a domestic furniture company to a global luxury brand. Shares were pressured in the earlier part of the quarter due to shorter-term concerns regarding demand amid a volatile macroeconomic environment. Despite these short-term pressures, we remain confident in RH’s ability to gain market share in the fragmented high-end furnishings market, and we see a multi-year growth pipeline driven by store expansion around the globe. We also believe that RH will see improvements in profitability as the brand returns to a fuller-priced sales environment, and as it begins to scale its early international investments.”
