Voyageurs du Monde Société Anonyme reported consolidated earnings results for the first half ended June 30, 2017. For the period, the company reported revenue of EUR 152.9 million compared to EUR 141.0 million a year ago. LBITDA was EUR 2.9 million compared to EUR 1.3 million a year ago.

Group net loss was EUR 2.5 million compared to EUR 1.9 million a year ago.

Given that the effects of the new hires will smooth out over the year as a whole and the full-year margin is expected to be ahead of its first-half 2017 level, the group's net income should post a very significant rise in the financial year to December 31, 2017 barring unforeseen events.
