Groupe Seb results

Posted on by

Groupe Seb published its 2024 annual results, which demonstrate sustained commercial momentum and an improvement in its profitability in a still uncertain economic context. Its turnover reached โ‚ฌ8.266 billion and shows an increase of 3.2% in published data and 5% at constant exchange rates and scope.

This performance was mainly driven by the Consumer business , with organic growth of 6% (+9% excluding China). The Group thus returned to solid growth in Western Europe and North America, while Eastern Europe and South America continued their double-digit growth. For its part, the Professional business experienced a year of consolidation after strong performances in 2023. Although its sales fell by 4.5%, 2024 represents the second best year in history in terms of revenue for coffee. ”  2024 was also marked by major strategic advances: the launch of a hub in China for Professional Coffee and the strengthening of our expertise in Professional Culinary with the acquisition of the Sofilac Group ,” said Stanislas de Gramont , CEO.

At the same time, operating profit from activity (ROPA) increased by 10.5% to reach โ‚ฌ802 million. The operating margin thus improved to 9.7% of sales, compared to 9.1% in 2023. This increase is explained by a positive volume effect and a decrease in the cost of sales, which more than offset the commercial and marketing investments made to support growth.

Posted on by

Elica closes the third quarter with a contraction of ‘only’ 1.1% thanks to the excellent performance of the Engine Division (+9%) which gained market share in Europe. The bet on Cooking is slow to pay off: in the January-September period, despite the award-winning models of the Nikolatesla and Lhov lines, sales fell by 4% (very weak demand in Europe, improvements in the USA).

The balance of the very difficult first nine months of 2024 sees a drop of almost 5% in turnover, down to 342 million euros and margins in line with expectations. The Fabriano group does not give up and finances an intense promotional activity and investments in its own brand lines with careful cost control. The margin on revenues in the first nine months was 7.2% against 10.4% in 2023.
