SYNERGIE confirms its excellent start for 2014, with a consolidated turnover for the first 6 months of €793.7 million, a 12.8% increase relative to 2013 (11.9% on a likefor-like basis).

The Group is therefore outperforming all of its markets, with continuing very high International growth (+19.2%) as well as in France (+8.1% in a market that has only increased by 0.4% according to Prisme data at the end of May).

With a turnover of €359.8 million, the International side now represents 45.3% of the business, with strong increases having been seen mainly in Europe where the Group has become a major player, most notably in Great Britain (+21.2% with constant currency), Germany (+13.1%), Belgium (+13.9%) and Italy (+8.9%), with these countries fully benefiting from their respective economic rebounds.

For example, after having successfully integrated the SOLEMPLEO network (€6.5 million over the half-year), SYNERGIE Spain posted 55.9% growth (+36.9% on a like-forlike basis), which should take it across the €100 million threshold in 2014.

These performances are indicative of the relevance of the strategic choices made by the General Management and of the significant efforts made in rapidly expanding sectors such as aeronautics, renewable energies and specialised tertiary business lines, all of which are building on highly innovative offers (OpenCenters, GlobalCross Sourcing …).

The Group should once again surpass its highest historical levels during the 3rd quarter, with the number of daily assigned personnel members having exceeded the 50,000 person threshold (FTP) in June.

Building on its performances and financial solidity, the Group is planning new acquisitions in order to accelerate its growth in France and on the International stage, while expecting a turnover up by 10% in 2014, in accordance with its objectives.
