The Casino Group's strategic and financial plan for 2030

The Casino Group has unveiled its "Renewal 2030" strategic plan and its project to strengthen its financial structure. Faced with maturing debt, the group aims for financial consolidation by 2026. The support of France Retail Holdings (FRH) is crucial, with a potential capital increase of €300 million.

The objectives include a net leverage ratio of less than 1.7x by 2029 and a significant debt reduction. By 2030, the group expects to reach €15.8 billion in revenue (including VAT) and an adjusted EBITDA after lease payments of €644 million.

Operationally, Monoprix, Franprix, Naturalia, and Cdiscount have plans for reinvention and expansion. 100% of Monoprix stores could be renovated, while Franprix plans to open 800 stores under the Oxygène concept. Cdiscount aims for 15% growth in its B2C customer base.
