Fielmann-Group: Half-year financial report as ofJune 30, 2025
The Fielmann Group continued its profitable growth trajectory in the first half of 2025 and is on course to achieving the goals of its Vision 2025. Despite the challenging economic environment, the Fielmann Group grew substantially with increases in unit sales, total consolidated sales, and profitability compared to the corresponding prior-year period. Our strong organic growth is driven by a strong performance across all major markets and product categories in our vision care and audiology businesses. Main drivers of the significantly improved Adjusted EBITDA margin remain a favorable sell-out structure, increased efficiency in our stores and stringent cost control. Additionally, our US business continued to deliver substantial profitability improvements compared to the prior-year period. Accordingly, we confirm our full-year outlook as published in our Annual Report.
The macroeconomic environment across Europe continued to be challenging. The outlook in Europe remained subdued, with growth expectations negatively impacted by ongoing geopolitical tensions and the ongoing trade conflicts with the United States.
In Germany, no clear sign of economic recovery emerged in the first half of 2025. The economy remained weak and at projected real GDP growth of 0.0% for 2025, the federal government projects stagnation for a third consecutive year. Countries such as Spain and Poland continued to show stronger momentum, with forecasted GDP growth of 2.6% and 3.3%.
In the United States, after a drop in consumer confidence in Q1 2025, sentiment shifted notably and showed a clear recovery, signaling renewed consumer optimism.
Thanks to the consistent execution of our Vision 2025, we feel well positioned to deliver on our targets in the current financial year (see section "Outlook"). Building on this momentum, we presented our Vision 2035 and targets for 2030 at our Annual Shareholder Meeting in July 2025. Staying true to our customer-centric philosophy, our family values, and our purpose to help everyone hear and see the beauty in the world, we have developed a new Vision 2035 statement: "As the most trusted partner for hearing and vision, we redefine comprehensive care globally." Over the decade to come, the Fielmann Group is going to evolve from a European optical and audiology retailer into a global provider of comprehensive vision and hearing care.
By 2030, we plan to achieve the following:
With our targets for 2030, we remain committed to a growth strategy, combining organic growth and acquisitions. Strengthened by the foundation laid over the past decades, our European core optometry business will be one of the key growth drivers (around +€500m). Since entering the US market in 2023, we have built a strong platform in our optometry business in the US and see significant potential to accelerate that market's growth (around +€700m). An enhanced focus on our fast-growing audiology business (around +€200m) and our innovations in adjacent healthcare services (around +€100m) complete our ambition for the next five years.
In the first half of the current financial year, the Fielmann Group's eyewear sales increased by +4.1% YoY to a total of 4.7m pairs of glasses. Hearing aids were up by 7.8% YoY to 69k (HY1/2024: 4.5m pairs of glasses; 64k hearing aids).
Fielmann Group's total consolidated sales increased by +12.3% YoY to €1.2bn in the first half of the year (HY1/2024: €1.1bn). Our organic growth remained within our target corridor at 4.4% despite a challenging environment. The consolidation of Shopko Optical in the first six months of 2025 contributed 7.9%. From the second half of 2025 onwards, topline development will normalize to organic growth, as the Shopko Optical acquisition consolidation effect year over year ended in June 2025. We successfully achieved organic growth across all reporting segments. In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, we increased sales between +5% and +6%. Furthermore, we delivered even stronger growth in markets like Spain (+8%) and Poland (+15%) over the same period last year. Our US business contributed \$156m to Group sales and is now our second-largest market. As of June 30, 2025, the Fielmann Group operated 1,251 stores (previous year: 1,085), of which 432 included hearing aid studios (previous year: 398).
The Fielmann Group continued its profitable growth trajectory and increased Adjusted EBITDA by 25.9% to €290m (HY1/2024: €230m). The Adjusted EBITDA margin for the Group improved substantially by +2.6%pt. to 23.7%. In Europe, the Adjusted EBITDA margin went up from 22.2% to 24.8%, achieving the target margin of around 25% in the reporting period.
In the US, we continued our positive trajectory and increased the Adjusted EBITDA margin to 14.9%, a significant improvement compared to 2.2% in the previous year.
This favorable development is mainly due to increased productivity in our stores globally. We achieved double-digit sales growth, with personnel expenses increasing disproportionally by only 5.6% YoY. As a result, the personnel cost ratio improved by 2.6%pt. to 40.6% (HY1/2024: 43.2%). Secondly, a favorable sell-out structure led to an uplift of the gross profit margin by 40bps. to 79.4% (HY1/2024: 79.0%). Higher marketing activities in the first half of 2025 led to a moderate increase in the cost ratio of 40bps.
Adjusted EBT also increased substantially by 28.9% to €158m (HY1/2024: €122m), resulting in an Adjusted EBT margin of 12.9% (+1.7%pt.).
The Fielmann Group introduced Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBT as key performance indicators in 2024. Extraordinary effects are eliminated from EBITDA and EBT in order to report the Group's sustainable profitability. The following tables provide reconciliations of the reported key figures.
| For the period from January 1 to June 30 | 2025 in € m |
2024 in € m |
|---|---|---|
| EBITDA | 283.9 | 230.1 |

| IV. Other non-recurring income/costs | - | -2.5 |
| Adjusted EBITDA | 289.7 | 230.0 |
| Adjusted EBITDA margin | 23.7% | 21.1% |
The adjustments in HY1/2025 and HY1/2024 relate to integration and restructuring expenses with respect to the acquisition of Shopko Optical. The current reporting period also includes expenses referring to the integration of our Spanish businesses.
There are no impairment charges in either period to adjust.
In both reporting periods, severance payments were recognized for the reorganization of the finance division.
There are no other non-recurring items in the reporting period to adjust. In the corresponding prior-year period, we considered the extraordinary income from the partial sale of our FittingBox S.A. investment.
The Adjusted EBT represents earnings before taxes, adjusted for the abovementioned extraordinary effects eliminated in the context of the Adjusted EBITDA, plus further one-off effects that only affect EBT.
| For the period from January 1 to June 30 | 2025 in € m |
2024 in € m |

No further items have been identified as extraordinary effects on EBT in the current financial year to date.
Investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are related to the constant expansion and improvement of our omnichannel offering and amounted to €37m in the first half of 2025 (previous year: €33m).
As reported in our interim statement as of March 31, 2025, Peter Lothes was appointed to the Management Board as Chief Operating Officer (COO), effective March 1, 2025.
In May 2025, the Fielmann Group successfully completed its inaugural €275m Schuldschein issuance to refinance the €305m bridge facility related to the acquisition of Shopko Optical. The Schuldschein placement was structured across three maturities of 3, 5, and 7 years, each comprising fixed and floating rate components with interest rates generally ranging between 3.3% and 4.0%. The order book was significantly oversubscribed, which underscores the market's confidence in the Fielmann Group's business model and strategic direction. By securing this flexible, long-term funding under favorable conditions, the Group has improved its balance sheet and reduced its overall cost of capital.
On July 10, 2025, the Annual General Meeting of Fielmann Group AG approved a dividend of €1.15 per share (previous year: €1.00). The dividend yield based on the 2024 year-end share price is 2.8%. The distribution amounted to €96.6m (previous year: €84.0m) and corresponded to a payout ratio of 64% (previous year: 67%) of the profits attributable to the shareholders of the parent company.
Earnings per share amount to €1.23 (previous year: €1.01). Events that could have led to a dilution of earnings per share occurred neither in the period under review nor in the comparison period.

The statements made in the 2024 Annual Financial Report regarding the opportunities and risks of the business model remain unchanged.
Considering the progress we made within the reporting period, the Management Board has a positive outlook for the full year. As we complete our Vision 2025 growth strategy, we expect customer satisfaction in 2025 to remain at a high level of around 90%. We anticipate unit sales growth to around 9.5m pairs of glasses and total consolidated sales of nearly €2.5bn. An improved sell-out structure, group-wide efficiency programs and stringent cost control are expected to contribute to further profitability improvements. The Fielmann Group estimates an Adjusted EBITDA margin of around 24% (excluding non-recurring effects), implying an Adjusted EBITDA in the range of around €580m. Despite the acquisition-related increases in financial expenses and non-cash, scheduled depreciation, the Adjusted EBT margin (excluding non-recurring effects) is expected to continue improving at a similar rate as in previous years.
1 Some previous year figures have been adjusted. For further information, see the section entitled "Adjustments to previous years' figures and changes to estimates" in our Annual Report 2024.
We affirm that to the best of our knowledge the interim consolidated accounts prepared in accordance with the applicable accounting regulations convey a view of the Fielmann Group's financial position, cash flows and financial performance that is true and fair and that business development including business results and the position of the Group are presented in the interim Management Report for the Group in such a way as to provide a true and fair view as well as to portray the opportunities and risks inherent in the future development of the Group accurately. There was no review or full audit of the interim report corresponding to the year-end audit.
