The Technogym Board of Directors reviewed the consolidated revenues of the first quarter of 2022
TECHNOGYM: +17.8% IN THE FIRST QUARTER
- CONSOLIDATED REVENUE: Euro 151.6 million (+17.8% Y/Y)
- BtoB accelerates the growth at +38.8% Y/Y at Euro 107.4 million in Q1
- Double digit growth in almost all geographical areas
Nerio Alessandri, Technogym Chairman and CEO, commented:
"Technogym closes the first quarter of 2022 with a revenue growth of approximately 18% compared to last year and, above all, with a growth of over 15% compared to the first quarter of 2019.
This is the result of our long term strategic vision and continuous investments in innovation. Today, our connected ecosystem, unique in the industry, allows Technogym to offer the end users a personalized training experience everywhere at any time: at the gym, at home, when travelling, at work, at medical centres. Giving people the opportunity to stay active in every place represents not only an advantage for their health, but also an opportunity for our customers, fitness club operators, to increase members attraction and retention.
Our "wellness on the go" strategy has allowed us to support BtoB operators during the pandemic, and now allows us to benefit from the strong recovery of the commercial sector, while home fitness demand continues, even after the peak recorded during the lockdown, to stand above the levels of 2019.
Our business model focusing both on BtoB and BtoC allows the company to be flexible to the demand, as shown in the last two years. Despite the difficulties related to the international scenario, the results of the first quarter and the current order portfolio make us look forward to the rest of the year with confidence "
Cesena (Italy), May 11, 2022 – The Board of Directors of Technogym (MTA: TGYM), a globally leading company operating in the fitness equipment area and active in the broader wellness sector, has reviewed today the consolidated revenues of the first quarter of 2022.
Revenue trend as of March 31 , 2022
Consolidated results have been prepared in compliance with the International Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The results of the first quarter of the year benefit from the general improvement in epidemiological conditions from COVID-19 in most of the countries served by the Group, with a consequent restart of economic activities and a return to normal habits by the majority of consumers, albeit with greater awareness about adopting a hybrid (fitness club and home) approach to training as well.
In this scenario the company reported Q1 2022 consolidated revenues of €151.6 million, up 17.8% compared to the same period in 2021, and also up 15.3% compared to Q1 2019. At constant exchange rates, the Y/Y growth for Q1 2022 is 15.5%.
Here below we provide a short analysis of revenues broken down by:
- client category;
- geographical areas;
- distribution channels.
Revenue by client category
| (In thousands of Euro and percentage of total revenues) |
Q1 as of March 31 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 2021 | 2022 VS 2021 | % | ||
| BtoC | 44,195 | 51,343 | (7,148) | (13.9%) | |
| BtoB | 107,431 | 77,382 | 30,049 | 38.8% | |
| Total Revenue | 151,626 | 128,725 | 22,901 | 17.8% |
First-quarter revenue confirm the progressive recovery of the BtoB segment: thanks to double-digit growth in all sub-segments, with an important acceleration of the Club. In the first quarter of 2022 BtoB revenue stands at only few percentage points below 2019. The BtoC segment recorded a physiological slowdown in the period, due to the comparison with the result of Q1 2021, the quarter of last year which was most impacted by the international lockdowns, but stands firmly above 2019 level.
Revenue by geographic areas
| (In thousands of Euro and percentage of total revenues) |
Q1 as of March 31 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 2021 | 2022 vs 2021 | % | |
| Europe (ex Italy) | 71,835 | 62,000 | 9,835 | 15.9% |
| MEIA | 15,590 | 13,472 | 2,118 | 15.7% |
| APAC | 27,414 | 22,937 | 4,477 | 19.5% |
| Italy | 14,278 | 15,702 | (1,424) | (9.1%) |
| North America | 18,520 | 11,864 | 6,657 | 56.1% |
| LATAM | 3,989 | 2,750 | 1,239 | 45.0% |
| Total Revenue | 151,626 | 128,725 | 22,901 | 17.8% |
Technogym recorded double-digit sales growth in all the geographical areas, with the exception of Italy, whose performance is explained by the physiological contraction in BtoC during the first quarter. North America, in which the order intake recovery had initially been more cautious mainly due to the higher concentration of Key Accounts, recorded the best performance in the period, with the United States exceeding 2019 turnover. In Europe, the group's main geographical area, growth of 15.9% was recorded thanks to the excellent contribution of Spain and Benelux. Double-digit performance also in APAC, where China and Australia surpassed the Q1 2019 revenue level. Finally, robust growths are also recorded in the other emerging geographical areas for the Group, LATAM and MEIA.
Revenue by distribution channels
| (In thousands of Euro and percentage of total revenues) |
Q1 as of March 31 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 2021 | 2022 vs 2021 | % | |
| Field sales | 90,991 | 68,504 | 22,487 | 32.8% |
| Wholesale | 39,322 | 33,922 | 5,400 | 15.9% |
| Inside sales | 18,237 | 23,231 | (4,994) | -21.5% |

| Total Revenue | 151,626 | 128,725 | 22,901 | 17.8% |
Regarding the performance of turnover by sales channel, it's worth noting the strong performance generated by the channels most exposed to BtoB. In fact, Field Sales grew by 32.8%, driven by the progressive normalization of activities following the improvement of the pandemic situation in most geographical areas. The Wholesale channel also benefited from the general recovery in BtoB activities, with a 15.9% increase in the period. The Retail and Inside Sales channels, historically the most exposed to Home demand, recorded weaker performances in the period, but were both well above the level recorded in Q1 2019, thus confirming the structural higher demand for Home fitness.
