Feb 20 (Reuters) - Birkenstock ( BIRK ) beat Wall Street

expectations for first-quarter revenue on Thursday, as the

German footwear maker benefited from strong holiday-driven

demand for its expensive cork-based sandals and shoes.

The company reported quarterly revenue of 361.7 million

euros ($377.47 million), compared with analysts' average

estimate of 356.2 million euros, according to data compiled by

LSEG.
