Orgon, 17 March 2021 – 5:45 pm - CET: ID Logistics (ISIN: FR0010929125, Mnémo: IDL) one of the European leaders in contract logistics, announces its 2020 results with revenues up +7.1% to €1,642.8 million and underlying operating income of €60.5 million, up +12.0%.

Eric Hémar, Chairman and CEO of ID Logistics, commented: « We have achieved the three targets we had set at the beginning of the health crisis: we have been able to protect our teams and none of our 340 ID Logistics sites has been closed for health reasons; we have been able to support our customers and deploy e-commerce solutions in record time; and finally, thanks to strict financial management, we have emerged from this crisis stronger than ever and we can continue our ambitious development strategy. I would like to thank once again all our teams for their unfailing commitment and our customers for their trust and loyalty ».

A NEW YEAR OF SUSTAINED REVENUE GROWTH AT +7.1%

ID Logistics' 2020 revenues amounted to €1,642.8 million, up +7.1% and +4.9% on a like-for-like basis:

• In France, sales came to €721.0 million, up +0.9%. The temporary decline in the second quarter (-5.9%) in a context of strict lockdown, was offset by the good recovery in activity in the second half (+3.1%).
• International revenues reached €921.8 million, up sharply by +12.5%. This performance includes a currency effect that remains unfavorable overall, particularly in Latin America, and changes in the scope of consolidation (end of activities in South Africa in August 2019 and in China in June 2020, consolidation of Jagged Peak's activities in the United States since December 2019). Restated for these items, revenue growth was +8.7% for the year 2020.

In 2020, e-commerce was once again the most buoyant business sector for the Group. ID Logistics confirms its expertise in this segment, which now represents 25% of its revenues.

UNDERLYING OPERATING INCOME UP 12.0% TO €60.5M

Despite the Covid crisis and the cost of starting up the 18 new sites in 2020, the Group's operating profitability continued to improve, with underlying operating income up +12.0% to €60.5m from €54.0m in 2019 and the Group's recurring operating margin up 20 basis points to 3.7%:

• In France, 2020 underlying operating income was down to €26.6 million, or 3.7% of revenues, compared with €29.0 million and 4.1% in 2019. The increased productivity of recently started projects partially offset the additional direct and indirect costs related to the Covid-19 health crisis (masks, hydroalcoholic gel, social distancing, loss of productivity).
• Outside France, underlying operating income for 2020 rose sharply to €33.9 million, representing a margin of 3.7%, compared with €25.0 million and 3.1% in 2019. This improvement in profitability is the result of good control over the many site start-ups and specific actions taken on the least profitable operations. These initiatives largely offset the unfavorable effects of the Covid-19 crisis, which weighed on all the Group's countries.

NET INCOME UP 67% TO €28.2M

Consolidated net income is up 67% to €28.2 million in 2020 compared to €16.9 million in 2019. It includes in particular non-recurring expenses of €3.4 million in 2020 (mainly costs for the closure of activities in China and covid-related restructuring in Spain), compared with €7.3 million in 2019 (costs for the closure of South Africa and the acquisition of Jagged Peak in the USA).

GOOD CASH GENERATION AND CONTINUED STRONG INVESTMENT CAPACITY

In 2020, ID Logistics demonstrated good working capital management, while maintaining a sustained pace of operational investments to support its customers' development. Cash flow from operations thus came to €154.2 million after taking into account operating investments, up +27% compared to 2019.

Net financial debt excluding IFRS 16 amounted to €61.0 million at the end of 2020, compared to €89.2 million at the end of 2019. It represents 0.7x EBITDA excluding IFRS 16 (2.0x including IFRS 16), confirming ID Logistics' strong investment capacity.

OUTLOOK

Thanks to its good performance in 2020 and to the strengthening of its positioning in e-commerce, ID Logistics intends to continue its profitable development, while remaining cautious about the evolution of the Covid-19 crisis. The pandemic has already highlighted the decisive impact of customers' logistics organizations, when they are organized, flexible and global. ID Logistics plays an active role in these changes which will now be deployed on a larger scale.

At the same time, ID Logistics is pursuing an ambitious CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) approach in order to meet the challenges of its customers and in the social area for the Group.

Finally, ID Logistics remains attentive to external growth opportunities, particularly in Northern Europe and the United States.
