Today, Elior Group (Euronext Paris – ISIN: FR 0011950732), a world leader in catering and multiservices, is releasing its unaudited results for fiscal 2024-2025 (twelve months ended September 30, 2025).

The fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 was a turning point in the Group's transformation process. After several years of restructuring, we have returned to profit for the first time since 2019, clearly illustrating how our business model is back to its former strength, and demonstrating the effectiveness of the actions undertaken by Daniel Derichebourg since Elior joined forces with Derichebourg Multiservices. Earnings rose year on year, led by solid profitable growth and increasingly better operating performance.

This positive momentum comes with a reinstatement of dividend payments – a clear sign of the Group's restored confidence and stability.

- Consolidated revenue amounted to €6,150 million in fiscal 2024-2025, representing year-on-year organic growth of 1.3%, driven by a 2.0% organic rise for the Contract Catering business.

- Operating profitability increased year on year, with adjusted EBITA coming in at €202 million, up €35 million. Adjusted EBITA margin was 3.3%, up 50 basis points.

- Net profit surged to €87 million, versus a €41 million net loss in fiscal 2023-2024.

- The Group continued to deleverage, reducing its net debt by €144 million. Its leverage ratio decreased to 3.3x at end-September 2025 from 3.8x a year earlier.

Thanks to the recovery measures undertaken over the past few years, the Group is firmly back on track and is now well poised to achieve profitable, long-term growth, backed by a proactive capital spending strategy.

The coming fiscal year will mark a key milestone, with a return to profitability and performance higher than pre-Covid levels.

 

Outlook for fiscal 2025-2026

- Organic revenue growth, focused on profitability, ranging between 3% and 4%.

- Adjusted EBITA margin between 3.5% and 3.7%, representing an increase of between 20 bps and 40 bps.

- Further deleveraging, with a leverage ratio of around 3.0x at September 30, 2026.

 

Commenting on these results, Daniel Derichebourg, Elior Group’s Chair and CEO, said:

“These results prove how we've taken the right path – a path of robust recovery, disciplined growth and long-term ambition. Having successfully navigated our transformation period, we’ve delivered an outstanding performance, and are now reaping the rewards of our collective efforts with a return to profit. In parallel, the reinstatement of dividend payments reflects our restored strength and confidence in the future. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of our teams, whose engagement and dedication allow the Group to build on its strength and provide best-in-class services to our clients and guests every day.”
