Third-quarter 2023 turnover amounted to €65.5 million, slightly down by 2.8%, factoring in changes in the scope of consolidation and currency effects. Turnover was up 5.7% at constant consolidation scope and exchange rates.
Bogart Fragrances & Cosmetics achieved turnover of €11.4 million in Q3 2023, from €12.8 million a year earlier (-10.9%). This decline reflects the shift to an indirect sales model in Spain, with the subsidiary now refocused on marketing and support functions. This new model will serve to limit the Group's fixed costs. At constant consolidation scope and exchange rates, turnover increased by 7.3%. At the end of the first nine months, turnover for this division totalled €39.2 million, up 5.7% (up 11.9% at constant consolidation scope and exchange rates).
Bogart Beauty Retail reported turnover of €54.1 million in Q3 2023, versus €54.6 million year-on-year, a slight decline of 0.9% given the changes in the scope of consolidation (closure of 26 stores in its network of stores in France and Belgium) and a currency effect, particularly in Israel. At constant consolidation scope and exchange rates, turnover increased by 5.4%. At the end of the first nine months, turnover for this division totalled €163.9 million, up 1.6% (up 6.1% at constant consolidation scope and exchange rates).
At end-September 2023, BOGART turnover amounted to €203.1 million compared to €198.4 million on 30 September 2022, an increase of 2.4% (up 7.2% at constant consolidation scope and exchange rates).
BOGART actively operates a network of 44 stores in Israel. To date, the Company's business activities have not been significantly disrupted in the region. Its stores reopened after a week-long closure when the conflict began. However, BOGART remains cautious and attentive to developments on the ground, prioritising the safety of its employees. As a reminder, in 2022, the region accounted for 14.0% of the Group's annual turnover (€291.2 million). BOGART will notify the markets of any material developments in its business.
The Group confirms its ambition for growth in annual turnover and a recovery in profitability.
The product launches scheduled for H2 2023 which feature the Group's flagship brands (Jacques Bogart (Silver Scent), Carven (Carven c'est Paris La Nuit) and Stendhal (Rosis Delicatea line) will bolster the Bogart Fragrances & Cosmetics business.
The Bogart Beauty Retail business should also achieve growth despite the changes in the scope of consolidation, considering the busier year-end holiday season period.
BOGART will publish its fourth-quarter turnover on Monday 5 February 2024 (after market closes)
