The stock was up around 1.5 percent in early trading, among the biggest gains on Paris’ benchmark CAC-40 index. L’Oreal reported late on Tuesday higher-than-expected first-quarter sales growth. Across the group, sales rose 11.4 percent to 7.6 billion euros , and were up 7.7 percent on a like-for-like basis.
