A SUCCESSFUL DIGITAL AND MARKETING TRANSFORMATION
As announced in its RIO 2016 project, the Group successfully operated its digital and marketing transformation. The sold logistics activities were offset with acquisitions. The Group has maintained its organic TU thanks to its digital and marketing innovations, despite the decline of historical customers' physical flows.
The Group continues to be impacted by lower flow of traditional markets (primarily consumer electronics goods).
Digital innovations, however, enable recruiting new customers and offer new value-added services to existing customers. The Group therefore expects a return to organic growth in 2016 with amplified synergies between the subsidiaries, notably 'highten', in which Custom Solutions has taken a 40% stake.
Although impacted by lower historical flows, the 2015 results will benefit from the Group's transformation to digital and marketing, as well as the output of logistics activities.
The financial result will exceptionally be negative due to the recognition of latent losses at September 30, 2015, despite a cash level that remains high.
Fears of a hard landing of the Chinese economy (end of August) and the Volkswagen scandal (end of September) contributed to the high volatility of financial markets, which, however, have rebounded since then.
Despite the negative financial result, the group expects a net income close to that of 2014.
'This is a successful digital and marketing transformation ! We announced it in 2013 and completed it before 2016: the current TU is 90% marketing and digital, against 60% only 2 years ago.
Five significant acquisitions or equity investments were made (Q3, Flexistart, Lojaali, Bilendi and highten). We managed to maintain the performance level of our organic sales despite strong decreases in non-digital flow and the decrease of our historical markets. The Group will now be able to continue its collected data development projects in order to recover the growth in sales. '
