STRONG BUSINESS TRENDS IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2019
ID Logistics' organic growth continued into the first quarter of 2019, with its revenues growing to €358.1 million – an increase of 9.5% or 11.4% on a like-for-like basis. All its markets contributed to this highly positive performance, although trends in international markets were stronger than those in France.
In France, ID Logistics posted encouraging first-quarter revenues up 8.3% at €167.7 million. At this stage of the year, growth is mainly driven by contracts that started up in 2018.
In International markets, first-quarter revenues also posted a significant increase of 10.5% to €190.4 million, up 14.2% on a like-for-like basis. The contribution from the new contracts that started up in 2018 and 2019 and the broadly positive price and volume effects offset the vast majority of the currency headwinds. The performance in international market is mostly driven by Spain, Germany and Russia.
