REVENUES UP +16,0% (+17,1% LIKE FOR LIKE)
ID Logistics posted revenues of EUR1,761.7 million in the first half of 2025, up 16.0%. Adjusted for an overall unfavorable currency effect, growth was 17.1% on a comparable basis compared with the first half of 2024.
During the first half of 2025, the following highlights were observed:
-- Very strong activity in France (27% of Group revenues) with growth of
+15.8%, continuing the strong rebound observed since the fourth quarter
of 2024;
-- Good revenue growth in Europe excluding France (47% of Group revenues)
of +11.8% like for like;
-- Very strong momentum in the United States (18% of Group revenues), with
revenues up +32.7% like for like;
-- A 22.6% increase on a comparable basis for Latin America and Asia (8%

During the first six months of 2025, the Group launched 14 new projects.
UNDERLYING OPERATING INCOME UP 12.9% TO EUR65.8 MILLION
Overall, the Group has successfully managed its strong growth and the associated start-up costs: recurring EBITDA rose by 13.8% to EUR267.0 million, representing a recurring EBITDA margin of 15.2% (-20 bps). Underlying operating income rose by +12.9% to EUR65.8 million, with an operating margin of 3.7% in the first half of 2025 (-10 bps).
GROUP SHARE OF NET INCOME UP 23.2% TO EUR22,4 MILLION
Group share of net income amounted to EUR22.4 million in the first half of 2025, up 23.2% compared to the first half of 2024. Net financing expenses amounted to EUR10.9 million, down EUR4.0 million compared to 2024. Other financial expenses correspond to the portion restated as financial expense (IFRS 16) of rent paid for warehouses and equipment leased and invoiced to customers in the amount of EUR21.2 million, an increase in line with the Group's strong growth.
GOOD INVESTMENT CAPACITY: PRE IFRS 16 DEBT LEVERAGE TO 0.9X OF EBITDA
During the first half of 2025, the Group's activities generated EUR155.9 million in cash flow, up EUR26.8 million compared to the first half of 2024 after taking into account operating investments. These operating investments, 80% of which were focused on the start-up of new sites, amounted to EUR79.2 million, an increase of EUR21.9 million compared to the first half of 2024.
Strong growth in activity and the corresponding cash requirements had little impact on the pre-IFRS 16 debt ratio as of June 30, 2025, which remains limited to 0.9x current EBITDA. The Group also has confirmed credit lines for an available amount of EUR199 million as of June 30, 2025. ID Logistics therefore has a good investment capacity to support its growth.
OUTLOOK
In the short term, the Group is focusing on increasing productivity at recently launched sites and ensuring the success of upcoming start-ups.
In particular, at the start of the second half of 2025, ID Logistics is launching its first operation in Canada, which becomes its 19(th) country. The Group is extending its partnership with one of its long-standing customers, a global leader in e-commerce, by opening a 70,000 m(2) site in the strategic Toronto region. This first operation enables the Group to complete its presence in North America by establishing a foothold in a market worth EUR6 billion and with 41 million consumers.
Finally, ID Logistics notes that its activities traditionally benefit from higher profitability and cash flow generation in the second half of the year.
Additional note: The Board of Directors approved the half-year financial statements on August 27, 2025, and the review procedures for the consolidated financial statements have been completed. The limited review report will be issued after the procedures required for the publication of the Half-Year Financial Report have been finalized.
