2023 Annual Results

Thanks to the quality of its results in leisure vehicle activity - up by quite 30% compared to the previous financial year -, Trigano achieved a net profit of €308.3 million in 2022/23.

Consolidated current operating profit shows growth of 23.7% to €423.4M (12.2% of sales).

The improvement in profitability was driven by the dynamism of the leisure vehicle activity, whose current operating profit rose sharply to reach 12.7% of its sales.

Trigano was able to maintain a quality margin in a disrupted context, marked by shortages of components and rolling bases leading to occasional shutting of certain factories, and by the resurgence of inflationary surges affecting energy, personnel and raw materials costs as well as interest rates.

This performance was made possible by the accuracy of the sales price adaptation policy implemented last year and at the start of the financial year, and by the tight control over production costs and overheads.

Even though affected by the deterioration in the economic climate, results of the leisure equipment activity remained profitable.

Taking into account a financial result of -€11.0M, a corporate income tax charge of €105.7M and the positive contribution of equity affiliates (€2.3M), net consolidated profit reached €308.3M (€278.5M in 2021/2022).

These results allowed Trigano to strengthen once again its financial structure with consolidated shareholders' equity increasing to €1,605.4 million (€1,341.1M at 31 August 2022).

Production conditions in 2022/23, marked by non-optimal supply chain operation (shortages of rolling bases, occasional supply disruption of certain components), weighed on the industrial organisation of motorhome factories and generated stocks surplus at several sites, which are now in the process of being reduced.

Furthermore, Trigano maintained its investment effort for a total of €75.8M (including €18.6M under IFRS 16) over the 2022/23 financial year, and paid €67.6M in dividends to its shareholders.

Positive net cash position was €194.7M at 31 August 2023, with an increase of €69.0M compared to 31 August 2022.

Prospects

With a still disrupted economic environment, autumn trade shows and fairs results have confirmed the keen interest of consumers in purchasing Trigano motorhomes, with an increase in sales to non-renewing customers. The new product ranges, repositioned and introduced for the 2023/24 season, largely contributed to this outcome. The high level of order books and the confirmation of a marked improvement in rolling bases delivery by all suppliers mean that business is expected to grow well in 2023/24.

Beyond this horizon, Trigano is confident in the growth potential of its activity and in its ability to gain market share. Buoyed by the quality of its fundamentals in Europe, motorhomes will continue to attract customers who aspire to greater freedom, closer contact with nature and conviviality. The high inflation seen in 2022 strengthened Trigano's belief in the quality of its entry-level and mid-range product ranges positioning, enabling it to appeal to a budget-conscious clientele looking for an attractive equipment/price ratio.

With a solid financial structure and a positive net cash position, Trigano will continue to invest to adapt the company to coming challenges. In particular, projects designed to prepare for the future transition to the electrification of leisure vehicles will be intensified.

Finally, regarding the acquisition of the company BIO Habitat, the file is currently being studied by the French Competition Authority and should be completed by the end of the first half year.

Dividend

The Executive Board will propose to the General Meeting to be held on 9 January 2024 the payment of a gross dividend in the amount of €3.50 per share for the financial year ended 31 August 2023, namely a supplement of €1.75 to the interim dividend of €1.75 paid in May 2023.

2023/2024 First Quarter Sales will be released on 9 January 2024

Total Sales 3,480.2 3,177.2 2,933.6 +9.5% +3.4% -0.4% +6.5%

The Leisure Vehicle activity was marked at the start of the financial year by difficulties in supplying rolling bases for motorhomes, leading to the closure of several production units for several weeks. The significant improvement in motorhome deliveries in the second half of the year enabled the company to make up for most of the delay and to post an increase in sales of 11.2% at constant scope and exchange rates. Caravan sales (+5.6%) and mobile home sales (+7.5%) also remained well oriented while those of accessories for leisure vehicles (-5.9% at constant scope and exchange rates) were affected by distribution's destocking phenomena.

The leisure equipment activity was penalised by the poor economic climate in Europe and more particularly in France across all segments: camping equipment (-6.1%), garden equipment (-22.7%) and trailers (-22.8%).

Breakdown of sales by product category

(1) There have been two reclassifications with no impact on the leisure vehicles operating segment:

  • 2022: €12.2 M reclassified from motorhomes to accessories (€10.6M) and others (€1.6 M).

  • Scope effect: €1.2M in others and €0.7M in accessories were reclassified as motorhomes (€0.9M) and caravans (€1.0 M).

Glossary

Scope effect Restatement of perimeter effect of newly consolidated entities consists of:

- for entities entering the consolidation scope in the current year, subtracting the contribution of the acquisition from the aggregates of the current year;

- for entities entering the consolidation scope in the previous year, subtracting the contribution of the acquisition from September 1st of the current year, until the last day of the month of the current year when the acquisition was made the previous year.

The restatement of the scope of consolidation of entities leaving the current year consists of deducting the contribution of the divested entity from the previous year's aggregates.

Exchange rate effect

Restatement of the foreign exchange effect consists of calculating aggregates for the current year at the exchange rate of the previous year.
