M. Angel Benguigui, CEO of Econocom Group said: “2025 was an important year for Econocom in a challenging economic environment and a rapidly evolving Tech market. Our results confirm the relevance of our strategic plan and our model: revenue growth, operating margin increase, strengthened commercial organization, and more synergies within the group. In 2026, the group's priorities are: organic growth, margins improvement, investments in AI, and cash-flow generation. Thanks to the quality and commitment of our teams, I am confident in our ability to continue to progress on the qualitative execution of the ‘One Econocom' plan, while adjusting our quantitative targets horizon.”


Increasing operating margin

In 2025, Econocom posted revenue of €2,923m, up 4,3%1, of which 2,7% organic, compared to 2024. Over the period, trends in continuing operations were as follows:

  • Technology Management & Financing (TMF) reached revenue of €1,127m, benefitting from a growth of 4.7%¹, including the contribution of bb-net from January 2025. Thanks to the combination of this growth and operational efficiency improvements, the operating margin increased to €60m, compared to €47m in 2024.
  • Products & Solutions (P&S) returned to growth with revenue of €1,271m, driven by a dynamic second semester. Total growth reached 5.3%¹, supported by the audiovisual acquisitions (2.9% organic growth). The operating margin amounted to €34m, impacted by the competitive pressure in the distribution market the group is facing to maintain its position.
  • Services recorded revenue of €526m, with growth of 1.1%¹, related to its significant share of activity in France and Belgium. The operating margin remained stable at €25m.

These results confirm the relevance of the group's strategy in an uncertain macroeconomic environment. The group continues to progress on the execution of the One Econocom plan, notably through the following initiatives:

  • Strengthening the sales model: salesforce recruitment program and sequential structuring of the commercial organization around four strategic verticals: Workplace, Audiovisual, Infrastructure, and Financing Solutions.
  • Structuring Econocom Audiovisual Solutions: reinforced by the acquisitions of ICT, Avanzia, ISS AV, and Smartcomm assets, the group has consolidated its position as Europe's leading audiovisual integrator, now representing annual revenue exceeding €300 million and employing 750 experts.
  • Continuing the group's transformation: shaping the organization to improve operational leverage, in particular through the convergence of tools and AI investments.

After financial results and taxes, the net profit of continuing operations reached €53.2 million.

Econocom impaired the goodwill of Synertrade, a discontinued activity of the group, by €37 million (of which €27 million in the 2nd semester), as part of its sale process and Econocom's refocus on its core business.

The net profit for 2025 reached €6.4m.


Net financial debt reduction

As of December 2025, the group's net financial debt stood at €36 million, compared to €96 million as of December 2024. The free cash-flow over the last 12 months amounted to €142 million.

In the first half of 2025, Econocom reinforced its financial profile through a €225m Schuldschein private placement issuance, expanding the investor base and supporting the financing of the One Econocom strategic plan.


Confirmed strategic ambition and revised horizon

Despite the economic and geopolitical environment, as well as a Tech market under constraints, the group confirms its strategic ambition.

For 2026 to 2028, the group is revising its previous forecasts and now anticipates revenue growth of 2% to 3% per annum, in line with market expectations.

2026 priorities to further progress on the execution of the strategic plan One Econocom strategic plan:

  • Focus on organic growth, coupled with selective external growth.
  • Continued transformation: increase in technology investments, synergies and operational efficiencies focused on improving profitability.
  • Rigorous cash-flow management and a disciplined approach towards debt to maintain full strategic flexibility.

Its subsidiary Econocom Factory obtained an EcoVadis sustainability score of 83/100, placing it among the top 1% of the most performing companies globally and earning it the Platinum Medal. These results reflect concrete commitments, particularly in support of the circular economy.

In 2025, Econocom refurbished or recycled approximately 750,000 IT devices (laptops, monitors, servers, tablets and smartphones), thanks to the contribution of its EcoFactory and bb-net refurbishment plants, which actively contribute to reducing the environmental footprint of digital technologies.
