FINANCIAL PRESS RELEASE
FIRST-HALF 2025 RESULTS
A performance that translates into a slight improvement in net income
Reims, September 11, 2025
The Board of Directors of Vranken-Pommery Monopole met on September 11, 2025 under the chairmanship of Mrs. Nathalie Vranken, and in the presence of the Statutory Auditors, to approve the Group's financial statements for the half year 2025.
The limited review procedures on the half-year financial statements have been performed by the Statutory Auditors, their report is being issued.
Commercial activity: stable in the first half of the year
The first half of 2025 posted stable sales in a Champagne market that was still slightly down (vs. June 30, 2024). Vranken-Pommery Monopole, with its strong links with global distribution, signed an encouraging end of year.
The Group is pursuing its strategy of developing its premium brands .
This strategy enabled the Group to reach 57% of international revenue in the first half of the year.
In France , Vranken-Pommery Monopole is consolidating its position as a major player in the Champagne industry thanks to an increase in its sales volumes, thus instilling a recovery momentum in a market that is still slightly declining.
Results: slight improvement in net income
The decrease in EBITDA of €1.9 million and the decrease in operating income of €1.1 million are mainly due to effects independent of economic activity. Subsidies received in the first half of 2025 are down compared to the first half of 2024, which also recorded the payment of an insurance indemnity (non-recurring by nature).
The decrease in operating income was offset by the reduction in financial expenses linked to the fall in interest rates.
The Group thus improved its net income by €0.5m , bringing it down to -€1.4m in the first half of 2025.
Stability of the financial structure
Shareholders ' equity amounted to €396.5 million and represented
30% of total balance sheet .
While net financial debt increased by €26.7 million, the increase should be put into perspective with the seasonality of sales. They are expected to rise sharply for the end of year and have thus led to a technical increase in the level of stocks as of June 30.
In addition, the Group secured its post-closing borrowings:
Debt reduction projects
A sustainable and differentiating CSR strategy: “La Vérité du Terroir”
Outlook
The harvest is coming to an end in all the Group's vineyards.
Vranken-Pommery Monopole confirms its ambitions for the second half of 2025 with a return to growth and an increase in results, in line with its development plan.
