GOOD BUSINESS RECOVERY IN Q3 2020

After a resilient second quarter in 2020 (sales stable compared to the second quarter of 2019), ID Logistics recorded sustained growth in sales from the third quarter of 2020 to €412.1 million, up 7.3% compared to 2019 (+5.9% like-for-like).

  • In France, ID Logistics' sales increased by 2.1% to €183.8 million and the business is back on the growth track month after month.
  • International revenues for the third quarter of 2020 is up sharply, +11.8%, to €228.3 million, with a continued acceleration throughout the quarter. This performance includes a generally unfavorable exchange rate effect, particularly in Latin America, a change in the scope of consolidation due to the end of operations in South Africa in September 2019 and in China in June 2020 and the consolidation in December 2019 of the Jagged Peak activities in the United States. Excluding all of these items, net sales rose 9.5% during the past quarter.

/// PRESS RELEASE

The good business recovery in the third quarter of 2020 following the sustained growth in the first quarter of 2020 and the resilience shown in the second quarter of 2020 enabled ID Logistics to achieve sales of €1,188.7 million in the first nine months of 2020, up 5.3% (+3.4% like-for-like). During this period, the Group started up 15 new sites (5 in France and 10 outside France).

NEW CONTRACTS

Despite the health crisis context, the third quarter of 2020 was once again an opportunity for ID Logistics to pursue its commercial development, winning several calls for tenders. For example, the Group won or started the following new contracts:

  • In France, Leroy Merlin renews its confidence in ID Logistics to manage a new 24,000 m² warehouse that will distribute the 12 stores in the Lyon region from 2021.
  • The Nestlé group strengthens its partnership with ID Logistics in France with the creation of a warehouse in the Paris region that will group together the activities of the Nespresso and Dolce Gusto brands for multi-channel distribution.
  • In Brazil, ID Logistics reinforces its position as a specialist in logistics for consumer goods with a new 17,000 m² activity for Johnson & Johnson in the São Paulo region.
  • After Germany and France, ID Logistics continues its development with one of the world leaders in e-commerce in Poland with the opening in record time of a 42,000 m² site in the west of the country.

OUTLOOK

Thanks to a still very diversified customer portfolio (40% in food production and distribution and 20% in e- commerce) and a balanced geographical footprint, ID Logistics maintains a good level of activity despite the context of the health crisis. The pace of start-ups continues to be dynamic and the Group keeps receiving numerous calls for tender, particularly in the e-commerce sector.

ID Logistics therefore intends to continue its development over the end of 2020, while remaining very cautious about the evolution of the health crisis linked to Covid-19. In this context, the Group's priorities remain the protection of its employees, the support of its customers as close as possible to their needs and sound cash management. It remains attentive to external growth opportunities, particularly in Northern Europe and the United States.
