Patrice Etienne, Chairman-Chief Executive
Officer and founder of WINFARM, said: "Our results are on track
again in the third quarter. The quality of the solutions we provide
to farmers is a key asset underpinning the resilience of our model.
Our food supplement products for livestock in particular helped
farmers to deal with the drought during the summer, which reduced
the amount of fodder available. Today, the breadth of our ranges
and their availability in a context where most other players have
been faced with shortages are key factors in structuring a lasting
relationship with our customers.”
At 30 September 2022, consolidated revenue rose
by 19% to €95.4m, representing organic growth of 9% excluding the
integration of the Kabelis companies acquired in July 2022. This
level of activity at 30 September 2022 represents 88% of the
revenue generated in full-year 2021, confirming positive sales
momentum in the third quarter, after a successful first half of the
year.
Consolidated Q3 2022 revenue came to €33.9m, up
20% versus Q3 2021. In organic terms, revenue grew by a strong 13%.
WINFARM benefited over the quarter from strong momentum across the
board, with all of its businesses recording double-digit growth
over the period.
The Farming Supplies business (88% of
revenue for the quarter), whose products are marketed under the
Vital Concept brand, made revenue of €29.8m, up 19% compared with
Q3 2021 (+11% organic). This performance is all the more remarkable
given the demanding environment caused by persistent inflation in
raw material prices, even if it has eased in recent months. In
order to minimise the impact on its business, WINFARM anticipated
this price pressure at an early stage by building stocks in certain
items and successfully passing on purchase price increases over the
months without losing customers.
The Farming Nutrition business (10% of
revenue for the quarter), whose products are marketed under the
Alphatech brand, made revenue of €3.5m, representing sharp organic
growth of 29%. The performance of export solutions continued to
drive the Group's results.
ACQUISITION OF KABELIS IN FRANCE
During Q3, WINFARM announced the acquisition of
the KABELIS companies specialised in landscaping and green space
development, creating a French champion on this market and the
largest player in the Grand Ouest region.
Founded in 2007, KABELIS specialised in
fertilisers, seeds, services for local authorities, horticulture,
golf courses, sports grounds, etc. and became the leading French
player in landscaping and green space development.
This second acquisition since the IPO, after
that of BTN de Haas in the Netherlands in 2021, sees WINFARM forge
ahead with the implementation of the roadmap it announced during
its IPO at the end of 2020, combining organic growth and
acquisitions to become a key player in the upstream agriculture
sector in Europe.
CONTINUED GROWTH EXPECTED IN Q4 2022
Having demonstrated its ability to continue
generating strong business growth during the first nine months of
the year, despite a demanding environment, by offering customers
solutions that contribute to operational performance and
competitiveness, WINFARM is confident that it will continue to grow
in Q4 2022.
In the longer term, the Group reiterates its
revenue target for 2025 of around €200m and an EBITDA margin of
around 6.5%. It expects to achieve half of this acceleration in
growth through organic growth and half through external growth.
