Here is what Harding Polen Capital specifically said about Revolve Group, Inc. (NYSE:RVLV) in its Q2 2022 investor letter:

Revolve Group, Inc. (NYSE:RVLV) is an e-commerce fashion company we believe is executing well. The stock weakness during the period was more sentiment-driven as the market grew increasingly concerned about consumer spending a recession.

We acknowledge that there could be some softness in the company’s near-term results as consumers tighten their purse strings, but we believe there remains tremendous long-term potential for this business. We have also observed that Revolve’s management team is exceptional when it comes to navigating unprecedented challenges, as they did during the pandemic and have a long history of doing so since being founded in 2003 and bootstrapped by their founders. Management preparedness is an important marker we are looking for during this challenging time and Revolve’s management team unquestionably passes the test in this area. We added to our position on this weakness.”
