Research Strategy:
Our research began by analyzing the company website and annual reports to obtain insights on the company. With this research strategy, we were able to find information for an overview of the brands. We then examined the annual reports to get the companies' structure, size, and key channel details and to acquire revenue details to get the market share. According to their annual filings with the SEC, Steve Madden and Johnston & Murphy are both public traded companies.
Key channel details were readily available in the annual reports for both the companies. For Steve Madden, we found the company size (i.e the employee count details) from its 2018 annual report. Johnston & Murphy is a subsidiary of Genesco, so the employee count was not accounted separately for them. Hence, we have taken the employee count details from the company profile on Zoom Info to estimate the company size.
To determine their market share as part of the total footwear market, we applied the following computations:
