  • Disregarding the impact of business termination in Russia, East area would be increasing by 11.4% on the 4th quarter of 2014/2015, that confirms the trend observed at the beginning of the fiscal year.
  • Particularly impacted by a negative forex impact (-0.8%), North area recorded sales decrease by 1.3% on the $4th$ quarter of 2014/2015.
  • The activity of South area recorded a 4% growth on the fourth quarter (without Papeteries Pichon), mainly backed by good performance of Local Authorities. New information system deployment at Manutan France did not have a significant impact on fourth quarter activity.
  • Finally, West area maintains its growth trend (+8.5%) on fourth quarter thanks to good results on ironmongery and racking business.

Recent acquisition of Papeteries Pichon will make Manutan Group one of the main actors on Local Authorities business sector in France, after acquisitions of Camif Collectivités in 2009 and Casal Sport in 2012.

Strong with this new acquisition, the Group's financial position remains very solid. It is in this context that the Group will continue its efforts for the development of sales in the short and medium term and maintain its investments in information systems.
