COGELEC reported revenue of €18.0m in Q4 2023, up 7.2% from Q4 2022. For full-year 2023, consolidated revenue amounted to €66.0m, up 10.5% compared with 2022.

In a generally tense market environment, COGELEC continues to benefit from the advantages of its subscription model, generating increasingly stronger recurring revenue. The Intratone offer posted new market share gains with nearly 286,000 additional dwellings subscribed in 2023. A total of 2,142,000 dwellings now use the COGELEC Group’s wireless intercom solution in France and Europe.

Subscription services accounted for 30.3% of revenue in 2023 for a total of €20.0m (€16.6m in 2022), up 20.4%.

In France, COGELEC generated revenue of €15.7m in Q4 2023, up 6.9% from Q4 2022 (€14.7m). For 2023 as a whole, revenue came out at €57.4m, for an increase of 10.4% compared with 2022 (€52.0m).

At the end of the year, the Group acquired a 35% minority stake in Portaconnect company, which has developed a connected remote monitoring solution for the operation of automatic doors and gates. COGELEC has exclusive marketing rights for this solution, which further diversifies its product range.

The first deliveries of the new version of the Kibolt key were also made in the last part of the year. Deliveries are being made gradually, with the pace set to accelerate in the coming months.

The COGELEC teams in Europe are continuing to make commercial headway on establishing the Intratone brand with customers on a lasting basis, by deploying an innovative and unparalleled solution for building complexes. Revenue totaled €2.2m in Q4 2023, up 9.1%. In 2023, revenue generated in Europe was €8.6m, compared with €7.7m in 2022 (up 11.1%).

COGELEC announces the appointment of Eric Nicole, Technical Director, to the Management Committee. Eric Nicole has solid experience in innovative project engineering, acquired at several international industrial groups, including Faurecia, or Valeo.
