imageDespite a challenging market, SYNERGIE continued to grow over the year, setting a new sales record at €3,184.9 million, up +2.5% on the 2023 financial year (+0.9% on a like-for-like basis). Synergie's performance in the face of a declining market confirms the strength of its business model, which is based on the strategic diversification of its portfolio of clients, sectors and geographical locations.

imageSYNERGIE's performance in France, with sales of €1,264.8 million (39.7% of the consolidated total), down -2.2%, should be seen in the context of the national market which is in sharp decline mainly due to political uncertainties and the economic difficulties of companies.

International sales (+5.8%), which account for 60.3% (€1,920.1 million) of the Group's business, were driven by an organic growth of +0.5% and the input of acquisitions which generated €44m over the year. Growth in Northern and Eastern Europe (+4.0%) remained positive despite the economic slowdown in these countries thanks to an outstanding performance of our Belgian subsidiary in a declining market. Southern Europe continued to grow with a remarkable commercial drive (+5.8%) of our Italian and Spanish operations.

SYNERGIE achieved in 2024 an EBITDA of €130.6 million (4.1% of revenue), versus €153.2 million in 2023. This decline in EBITDA is attributed to the decrease of the revenues in France, the financial and operational difficulties in Germany, the effects of regulatory changes in some countries and the Group's continued efforts to support its growth and digitalization.
