Optimist Fund stated the following regarding Revolve Group, Inc. (NYSE:RVLV) in its second quarter 2025 investor letter:

“Revolve Group, Inc. (NYSE:RVLV) was the only position in the portfolio that declined during the quarter, largely due to management’s comments about a slowdown to mid-single digit revenue growth in April—down from double digits the month prior—as well as initial guidance on tariff impacts. Since then, the company has indicated a return to double-digit growth and noted that cost headwinds are now more limited following a reduction in China-related tariffs. Despite this, the stock has remained under pressure. We’ve taken the opportunity to add to our position at what we believe are highly attractive valuations.”
