PARIS, June 2 (Reuters) - French luxury goods group Hermes (HRMS.PA) on Tuesday confirmed its target for more or less stable 2009 sales at constant currencies and said the impact of the economic crisis on purchasing power was still a factor.



Patrick Thomas, head of Hermes, told shareholders at the annual general meeting that it would be an "illusion" to think the group would be shielded from the effects of the crisis.
