International activities recorded revenues of €14.0 million (77% of total revenues for the quarter), up 19.8% (-1% on a pro forma basis at constant exchange rates).

2022 : a record year with €61.5 million consolidated revenues, up 39.5%
For the full year 2022, Bilendi will post record consolidated revenues of €61.5 million, up 39.5% compared to 2021 (6.2% on a pro forma basis at constant exchange rates). This record comes after a highly remarkable 2021, which was characterised by 29% growth, including 21% in organic growth alone. In 3 years, since 2019, the company has thus almost doubled its revenues from €32.4M to €61.5M (x1.9), representing a compound average annual growth (CAGR) of 24%. Over a longer period, since 2014, the CAGR is 22%. Despite a challenging environment related to the war in Ukraine, general price inflation and a particularly tight labour market for companies, Bilendi once again demonstrates the strength and resilience of its model, generating further solid growth in its business over the full year. This performance is even more noteworthy as it was generated in parallel with the integration of Respondi on the organisational, HR, marketing, technical and financial levels in 3 countries, thanks to the involvement and mobilisation of all the teams.
Continuation of an anticipated growth trajectory in 2023 Since its inception, Bilendi has based its development on a proprietary panel model that ensures the highest quality data and processes in the market. Over the years, Bilendi has built or acquired panels to create a portfolio of 20 panels in Europe, representing more than 2.5 million active online panelists in 13 European countries, as well as panelists around the world through a network of trusted partners. Bilendi follows the recommendations of ESOMAR, among others, and the entire management of its panels is subject to numerous measures to ensure quality. Bilendi is also certified by the international standard ISO 20252: 2019, obtained after an audit process carried out by Austrian Standard plus GmbH. This certification assesses the robustness of processes and procedures in the provision of research, insights and data services (market research planning, execution, data collection...) and demonstrates the group's commitment to providing quality panels and services to ensure client satisfaction.
Continued growth trajectory anticipated in 2023 On the strength of a successful year in 2022 despite an uncertain environment, Bilendi remains confident to maintain a growth trajectory in 2023 by capitalising on its solid foundation, strengthened with the acquisition of Respondi AG:
Bilendi thus reaffirms its ambition to reach revenues of €100 million by 2026, and an EBITDA of 20 to 25% of revenues, i.e. €20 to 25 million, combining organic development and targeted acquisitions. Next publication: results for the 2022 financial year will be published on 4 April 2023 (after market close)
