During the Period, CYBEX brand continued its strong revenue growth momentum, reaching a growth rate of 38.7% (27.4% on a constant currency basis) YoY. Its strong brand position and product portfolio (in both car seats and particularly wheeled goods), fortified global operations and the continuous launch of new products and categories of CYBEX contributed to the strong revenue growth across all key global markets, where the respective market shares also continued to expand.
gb brand revenue performance during the Period achieved positive results with a growth rate of 20.4% (10.7% on a constant currency basis) YoY overall and a growth rate of 30.2% (19.4% on a constant currency basis) in its key China market. This achievement was primarily driven by revenue growth realized from the recovery of its self-owned retail traffic and sales. gb continues to modernize and enhance its overall brand image and invest resources toward product development and innovation in both durable and non-durable products.
Evenflo brand revenue performance recovered and achieved 5.9% YoY growth (4.0% on a constant currency basis) during the Period, primarily driven by continued positive consumer reaction to new product launches and to the overall improvement of the macro environment with a stabilizing political situation and positive consumer behaviors due to the stimulus relief efforts.
Blue Chip business revenue was at approximately HK$265.5 million, representing an impressive revenue growth of 68.4% YoY (61.6% on a constant currency basis), primarily driven by increasing orders from its customers. The Group's Blue Chip business remains stable.
During the Period, the Group's revenue from other business, including the Group's tactical brands and retailer's private label business, was approximately HK$96.4 million, recorded an 27.2% YoY increase (20.2% on a constant currency basis), mainly driven by the recovery of business from the COVID-19 impacts and positive results of portfolio optimization.
With the gradual distribution of vaccines to combat COVID-19 and the preliminary signs of stabilization in both economic and political environments in the key markets, the Group is encouraged by its momentum. It remains confident in the focused strategy of the core Strategic brands of CYBEX, gb and Evenflo and the development of the Blue Chip business. Nevertheless, as the global economy recovers, the Group remains diligent to the ongoing headwinds in global supply and logistics chains and continues to implement proactive measures to minimize any remaining and unexpected impacts from COVID-19.
