In the second quarter of 2022, Group sales came to €15.6m, up 50.6% on the second quarter of 2021, marking the eighth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. On a pro forma basis, as through the acquisition of Respondi AG had taken place on January 1, 2021, revenues were up by 10.2%.

International business (78% of total business) was once again at the heart of this positive momentum, with revenues of €12.1m, up +53.5%. The Group benefits from a strengthened presence in Europe, with the opening of a new office in the Netherlands[3] and increased visibility in Germany, where Bilendi is one of the key players in the largest market in continental Europe[4].

In France (22% of the activity), growth remained strong, with revenues of €3.4 million, up 41.2%.

For the first six months of the 2022 fiscal year, Bilendi recorded consolidated revenues of €29.0 million, up 51.2% (+11.4% on a pro forma basis). This growth is even more noteworthy as it is taking place in a generally uncertain economic context, demonstrating once again the resilience and robustness of Bilendi's model combining technology and data.

Since the acquisition of respondi AG on November 22, 2021, the integration has proceeded according to plan. The quality of the team, the database, and the customer portfolio from respondi are fully contributing to the development of the Group in Europe.

 

 

 

2026 objectives confirmed

The Group is reaffirming its aggressive growth strategy, combining organic development and targeted acquisitions, with the objective of reaching revenues of €100 million by 2026, and EBITDA of 20% to 25% of revenues, i.e. €20 to 25 million.
