Crit shares retreat following annual earnings release
Groupe Crit is trading down 1.3% after reporting a group share of net income of 31.2 million euros for 2025, compared with 73 million euros in 2024. EBITDA came in at 145.3 million euros, down from 149.1 million euros a year earlier, resulting in an EBITDA margin contraction of 0.5 percentage points to 4.3%.
Revenue reached 3,372 million euros, up 7.9%, bolstered by an 8.4% scope effect following the integration of Openjobmetis in Italy. On an organic, working-day adjusted (WDA) basis, revenue remained stable compared to 2024.
The temporary staffing division (86.7% of total business) posted revenue of 2,924.3 million euros, up 8.6% (flat on an organic basis), while the airport services division (13.7% of total business) recorded revenue of 462.7 million euros, an increase of 4%.
For the past fiscal year, a dividend of 1.50 euros per share will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting on June 5, with payment scheduled for July 6, 2026.
Despite the caution necessitated by the geopolitical climate, Crit enters 2026 with confidence, noting that the recovery in demand across temporary labor markets in both Europe and the United States is being confirmed, while visibility remains strong in the aerospace sector.
