Fnac Darty reported a 1.6% year-on-year increase in third-quarter sales for 2025, reaching €2.5 billion on a like-for-like basis—assuming Unieuro had already been part of the group in Q3 2024. The actual impact of Unieuro’s integration was far more dramatic, driving a 34.6% surge in total sales.

📈 Regional Highlights:
– France led the charge with a 1.7% uptick, reinforcing its role as the group’s growth engine.
– Rest of Europe saw more modest gains at 1.3%, reflecting mixed market dynamics.
– Spain emerged as a standout performer, posting a 3.9% increase in Q3 and a robust 6.2% rise over the first nine months.

📉 Italy’s Drag:
Despite Unieuro’s contribution to overall growth, Italy was the only market to contract, with turnover dipping 0.6% year-to-date. This suggests localized challenges that may require strategic recalibration.

Fnac Darty’s performance underscores the strategic value of its Unieuro acquisition while highlighting the need for targeted efforts in underperforming regions.
