About RH

About RH

RH operated 89 retail locations at the end of fiscal year 2025, including 75 RH-branded galleries spanning North America and six European markets — Paris, Munich, Düsseldorf, Brussels, Madrid, and the UK — plus 44 outlet stores. The RH Members Program drove approximately 97% of core RH business sales during fiscal 2025, with roughly 262,000 fee-paying members at year-end. Total selling square footage reached 1,690,000 square feet, up from 1,527,000 a year earlier.

RH generates revenue through company-operated galleries, websites, Sourcebooks, and channels including Trade (residential interior designers) and Contract (hospitality and commercial projects). The RH Members Program charges an annual fee in exchange for everyday product discounts and complimentary design services, with membership purchases excluded from Outlets, Trade, Contract, and Hospitality channels. Product development relies on a global network of artisan vendors sourced largely on an order-by-order basis with no long-term contracts; 69% of fiscal 2025 purchase volume came from Asia — including 39% from Vietnam, 13% from China, and the remainder predominantly from Indonesia and India — with 21% from North America. The home furnishings sector is highly competitive, with national and regional retailers, mail-order catalogs, and online-centric business models among the rivals.

Show full overview

RH targets high-end consumers whose purchasing behavior is disproportionately subject to stock market volatility, second-home transaction volumes, foreign-buyer activity in U.S. real estate markets, and changes to income tax deductions for mortgage interest and state and property taxes. The 10-K notes that demand for home furnishings declined after the pandemic as consumer spending shifted to travel and leisure, and that high mortgage rates and housing price levels may continue to weigh on results. The company plans to launch RH Estates in spring 2026, featuring RH Bespoke furniture and RH Couture upholstery, as its next product elevation step.
