DÉKUPLE REPORTS SUSTAINED GROWTH AND CONFIRMS THE STRENGTH OF ITS INTEGRATED MODEL OVER THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2025, DRIVEN BY DIGITAL MARKETING AND INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION
Bertrand Laurioz, Chairman and CEO, stated:
Over the first nine months of financial year 2025, the DÉKUPLE Group reported of €175.1m, up +12.7% year-on-year. Growth accelerated in the third quarter (+13.6%), confirming the Group’s positive momentum in a still-uneven economic environment.
The Group’s came to €130.9m, up +7.6%, driven by the strong performance of Digital Marketing, which posted a solid +11.4% growth in Q3.
The Group’s performance reflects a more balanced geographic footprint and strong international momentum.
In , net revenue totalled €114.1m, down -2.3% on a reported basis
(-4.1% organic). This includes a +€2.2m scope effect from the integration of Ereferer (June 2024), an innovative automated netlinking platform, and Coup de Poing (October 2024), a recognized B2B customer loyalty agency, as well as the deconsolidation of Grand Mercredi Group (April 2025).
net revenue grew sharply to €16.8m, up +241.1% (+2.2% organic), supported by a +€11.8m scope effect from strategic acquisitions: the communications agency GUD.Berlin (Germany, October 2024), the creative agency Selmore and the digital agency DotControl (Netherlands, December 2024), and the creative agency After (Spain, May 2025).
International operations now account for 13% of net revenue, versus 4% a year earlier - a major milestone in the Group’s expansion strategy.
Digital Marketing confirmed its role as the Group’s strategic growth engine, with net revenue of €78.5m (+19.5%), including €14.0m from acquisitions completed over the past 12 months. On a like-for-like basis, the -1.9% decline reflects the resilience of the model and the gradual recovery in consulting activity.
The Magazines business recorded net revenue of €46.7m (-6.5%) with a gross sales volume of €127.0m (-4.6%), in a market that remains under pressure. The open-ended active subscription portfolio stood at 1.742 million as of September 30, 2025. The Group continues to focus on the most profitable segments through targeted marketing campaigns and renewed partnerships, reinforcing recurring revenues and its position as a key partner for publishers.
The Insurance business generated net revenue of €5.7m (-5.4%), reflecting the seasonal nature of the activity with fewer campaigns in Q3. Innovative AI-enhanced programs, particularly in personal protection, continue to drive portfolio loyalty.

1 Net sales (determined in line with the French professional status for subscription sales) only include the amount of remuneration paid by magazine publishers; for subscription sales, net sales therefore correspond to a net revenue (formerly gross margin), deducting the cost of magazines sold from the amount of sales recorded. For acquisition and management commissions linked to sales of insurance policies, net sales comprise current and future commissions issued, acquired by the accounting reporting date, net of cancellations.
2 For the digital marketing business, the net revenue (formerly gross margin) represents the total amount of net sales (total invoices issued: fees, commissions and purchases charged back to customers) less the total amount of costs for external purchases made on behalf of customers. It is equal to net sales for the magazine and insurance business lines.
3 The scope effect is calculated (i) by eliminating the net revenue of companies acquired during the period or the comparable period and (ii) by eliminating the net revenue of companies sold during the period or the comparable period. As a result, the like-for-like business does not take into account this scope effect for the period concerned.
4 Gross sales volume represents the value of subscriptions sold.
