- Growth in KPI values
Tessi posted 2016 turnover of €404.0 million, up 39.3% including 10.2% like-for-like growth.
Following late 2015 and early 2016 acquisitions in Spain, Portugal, Latin America, Switzerland and Austria, turnover generated outside France increased sharply from €31.8 million in 2015 to €118.1 million.
Current operating income, up 16.5% to €48.7 million, increased less steeply than turnover, mainly due to the decline in CPoR Devises' operating margin and the lower operating margins of recent acquisitions.
Performance by division breaks down as follows:
- Tessi documents services posted turnover of €338.8 million and a current operating margin of 11.3% (13.1% in 2015).
- Tessi customer marketing posted turnover of €25.1 million with a current operating margin of 5.4% (0.4% in 2015).
- CPoR Devises posted turnover of €40.2 million and a current operating margin of 22.6% (29.6% in 2015).
Consolidated net income rose 31.5% to €30.2 million, after deduction of a net financial expense of €3.9 million (€0.4 million in 2015) and corporate income tax of €11.2 million (€10.7 million in 2015). 2015 net income was impacted by a €5 million share of losses of equity affiliates.
- Financial structure at 31 December

| Net cash excluding net cash dedicated to CPoR Devises | 15.0 | (0.2) |
