Consolidated sales at 31 December 2024 were €665.8m, down 3.3% compared with 2023. This decline is due to the MAC division's business being hit by the contraction of the construction sector in Europe and unfavourable weather conditions for the solar protection business. However, the division held up better than its markets.

Despite this uncertain environment, cost control enabled us to maintain our gross margin, which rose by €1.5m in value terms, improving by more than 2 points.

Profit from recurring operations rose by 4.3% to €29.7m, compared with €28.5m in 2023. This represented 4.5% of Group sales.

In 2024, the Group wrote down assets by €10.4m and booked €1.1m in arbitration costs to review the acquisition price of the Wo&Wo Group. This arbitration did not reach a favourable outcome in the first quarter of 2025.

Sfpi Group's operating profit was €18.5m, increasing by €9,6m.

Net profit after tax was €14.7m, compared with €0.9m in 2023.

Dividends 2024: The Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General Meeting, to be held on 20 June 2025, the payment of a dividend of €0.08 per share, giving a yield in excess of 4%, for a total dividend payment of €7.5m.

Outlook: For fiscal year 2025, the Group expects annual revenues of around €668 million.

For Henri Morel, CEO and founder of Sfpi Group: "2024 confirms the solidity of the Group. Despite an uncertain environment, our gross margin is up, thanks to excellent cost control and a recovery plan for one division that is already producing results. Above all, Sfpi Group's financial structure has been further strengthened, with greater shareholders' equity and a net financial surplus up by almost 70%. Together, these factors mean that we can look to the period ahead with confidence and ambition, to become the European leader in industrial responsibility".
