In a global Champagne wine market that grew 1.8% in 2015 (312.5 million bottles shipped - provisional source: CIVC), the LANSON-BCC Group maintained the price positioning of its Houses. As a result, and as announced previously, this did not enable the Group to make up for all the missing volumes from the first half of the year.

Consolidated revenues for the fourth quarter of 2015 represent 48% of full-year consolidated revenues for 2015. Considering the events seen in France at the end of the year, the upturn in business in the last quarter represents a satisfactory result.

2015 earnings will be released after close of trading on Thursday March 31, 2016.
