Quaterly Turnover section
HOPSCOTCH GROUPE
Continued growth in the first quarter:
+ 9,3% Gross Margin
HOPSCOTCH Groupe (Euronext FR0000065278), a communications consulting group and a major player in Digital, Public Relations, Influence and Events, today presented its turnover and gross margin, consolidated at 31 March 2023.
In millions of euros (*) | Q1 2023 | Q1 2022 | Variation |
Consolidated Turnover | 51.0 | 45.3 | +12,5% |
Gross Margin | 18.3 | 16.7 | +9,3% |
(*) Unaudited data
Revenues reached 51 million euro in the first quarter, up +12.5% compared to last year. Correspondingly, gross margin increased by +9.3% to 18.3 million euro.
As expected, organic growth, as measured by gross margin, and compared to a very good first quarter of 2022, is close to 3.5%. The remainder of the growth is due to the consolidation of Hopscotch Sport, which will enter the consolidation scope in the second half of 2022.
Numerous projects could support this trend in the coming quarters. In particular, the approach of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris will lead to a progressive dynamic in our activities.
The group plans to maintain its external growth strategy with several identified projects.
In particular, Hopscotch confirms the continuation of its talks with the Vero group, based in South East Asia, specialist and leader in PR and digital communication in the region.
The conclusion of these negotiations will be the subject of an ad-hoc communication. HOPSCOTCH Groupe continues its international development strategy.
HOPSCOTCH Groupe will publish its Q2 2023 revenues on August 3, 2023, after the market closes.
