PRESS RELEASE
LANSON-BCC ANNOUNCES 2025 REVENUES AND FINALISES THE ACQUISITION OF HEIDSIECK & C° MONOPOLE
Reims, Thursday, January 29, 2026 - 5:45pm
Global Champagne wine market
In 2025, Champagne shipments amounted to 265.9 million bottles, down 2.2% compared with 2024, in a context marked by contrasting dynamics between France and international markets. The French market (42.9% of total shipments) recorded a decline of 3.7% in 2025, while export markets (57.1% of total volumes) showed a more limited decrease of 1.0% (CIVC estimate). These trends reflect a still challenging macroeconomic environment, characterized by a slight decline in consumption, persistent geopolitical uncertainties and trade tensions affecting the US market.
The overall revenue of the Champagne sector is estimated to be lower, at around €5.7 billion.
Our Maisons
In this environment, the LANSON-BCC Group recorded a decline in volumes in 2025. Consolidated revenues amounted to €233.3 million, down 8.7% compared with the previous financial year. The fourth quarter recorded a sharp decline, as our Maisons were faced with a particularly aggressive promotional environment.
In France (44.7% of volumes), revenues fell by 10.7% notably in mass retail channels. On the export markets (55.3% of volumes), revenues decreased by 6.7%, mainly due to lower shipments to the United Kingdom and the United States.
| Revenues (€m) | 2025 | 2024 | Change (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| H1 | 92.0 | 87.8 | +4.8% |
| H2 | 141.3 | 167.6 | -15.7% |
| Year to December 31 | 233.3 | 255.4 | -8.7% |
Finalization of the acquisition of Heidsieck & C° Monopole
The LANSON-BCC Group finalized, on 5 January 2026, the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Heidsieck & C° Monopole, in accordance with the acquisition agreement signed on October 1, 2025, with Maison Pommery et Associés. Founded in 1785, Heidsieck & C° Monopole is one of the oldest Champagne Maisons. It owns the eponymous brand, renowned for its historical heritage and international reputation.
The transaction was completed for a total amount of €50 million. It also includes the acquisition of the brand’s oenothèque, comprising historic vintages.
Operational integration has been effective since January 1, 2026. The Heidsieck & C° Monopole brand will be developed within Maison Burtin, which has the technical, oenological and commercial expertise required.
This acquisition is fully in line with the long-term strategy of the LANSON-BCC Group, aimed at strengthening its brand portfolio, optimizing synergies between its Maisons and pursuing sustainable value creation.
The acquisition of Heidsieck & C° Monopole will have no impact on the Group’s income statement for the 2025 financial year. However, in accordance with IFRS standards, the transaction will result, as at December 31, 2025, in the recognition of the brand’s value within the Group’s balance sheet as an intangible asset, offset by acquisition-related debt of €50 million.

Outlook
As a family-owned pure player in Champagne, LANSON-BCC is pursuing with determination a long-term value-driven development strategy, based on quality and the strengthening of its positioning in the high-end wines segment. This strategic focus is essential to address grape costs and the high level of inventory financing requirements. The contribution of the Heidsieck & C° Monopole brand and the relaunch of the Chanoine Heritage cuvée will enable the Group to respond to the promotional practices observed in the market.
2025 full-year earnings will be released on Wednesday, March 11, 2026 after market close.
