Successful Integration of Key Strategic Acquisitions
Significant Increase in Business in the First Half of 2024
In the first half of 2024, Prodware generated an impressive revenue of €315.7 million, nearly tripling business from €108.3 million, during the same period in 2023. After accounting for divested activities and maintaining a constant perimeter, the company reported a 23.4% organic growth rate.
The split in revenue shows that 31% of the total revenue is generated from Business Applications, while Managed and Staffing Sourcing accounts for the remaining 69%.
On the international front, sales amounted to €284.3 million, making up a significant 90% of the overall revenue.
Growth in Operational Profitability Driven by Volume Increase
In the first half of 2024, EBITDA reached €47.3 million, marking an impressive increase of 78.8% compared to the same period in 2023. Consequently, this translates to an EBITDA margin of 15.0%.
Partially driven by a relatively stable level of depreciation and provisions, the Current Operating Income demonstrated impressive growth of 118.9%, reaching €36.5 million.
The financial result, reported at -€11.0 million, mainly reflects the expense associated with net financial debt, which increased by €4.1 million due to the combined impact of rising debt from external growth initiatives and higher interest rates.
After accounting for corporate tax, the Group's net profit stands at €25.2 million, nearly three times higher than the figure reported for the same period in the previous fiscal year.

Financial Strength
