ANALYSIS
The 2025 financial year concludes with results fully aligned with our commitments, driven by double‑digit growth and an EBITDA level in line with our objectives. This performance confirms the strength of our model and the consistency of our execution throughout the year.
In the fourth quarter, activity remained in line with the trends observed since the beginning of the year, maintaining a stable and well‑managed level of operations.
Several recent contract wins have contributed to increasing our backlog, particularly in the United Kingdom, the Benelux region, and Spain. The backlog now represents 21.7 months compared with the revenue of the 2026 budget.
These contributions strengthen our visibility over upcoming fiscal years.
OUTLOOK
The 2026 budget anticipates 12% organic growth.
The divestment of Tipik will need to be compensated through external growth operations.
AGENDA
The annual meeting to present the 2025 results and the 2026 outlook will be held on 12 March in Paris 👉 Register now

Appendix | Alternative Performance Measures (APMs)
In accordance with ESMA Guidelines (ESMA/2015/1415), the Group presents below the definitions, calculation methods, reconciliations with the financial statements, and the rationale for the usefulness of the main alternative performance measures used in this press release.
1. Consolidated Revenue
Definition: Revenue generated from the Group’s ordinary activities, as presented in the consolidated financial statements (IFRS).
Link: Consolidated income statement | line item “Revenue”.
Usefulness: Measures the overall volume of the Group’s business activity.
2. EBITDA
Definition: Recurring operating income before depreciation and excluding nonrecurring items. It corresponds to revenue minus purchases, staff costs, external charges, provisions, and other current operating expenses, plus reversals of provisions and current operating income.
Link: Presented in the consolidated income statement as “Earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation excluding non-recurring items.”
Usefulness: Assesses the Group’s medium-term operational performance and its selffinancing capacity.
3. EBITDA Margin
Definition: EBITDA / consolidated revenue.
Usefulness: Enables monitoring of operational profitability before depreciation.
4. Organic growth on a like-for-like basis
Definition: Revenue growth excluding scope effects. Revenue from acquired or divested entities is excluded.
Methodology: The reference scope is based on the Group structure as of 30 June 2024. Figures are restated to reflect this scope.
Usefulness: Provides a measure of the Group’s true organic growth, independently of external growth transactions.
5. Backlog (Order Book)
Definition: A measure of upcoming business activity, calculated by comparing orders received (confirmed or in progress) as of the reporting date with revenue. It includes: signed contracts (weighted at 100%), verbal commitments (weighted at 80%), and bids in final selection stage with a shortlist (weighted at 50%).
Usefulness: Provides a forward-looking view of the Group’s future business activity.
