• Q1 2025 revenues of 鈧�5,553 million, up +0.5% at current exchange rates and a decline limited to -0.4% at constant exchange rates[*]
• Bookings of 鈧�5,884 million representing a strong 1.06 book-to-bill for the period

Paris, April 29, 2025 鈥� The 乌鸦传媒 Group reported Q1 2025 revenues of 鈧� 5,553 million, up +0.5% at current exchange rates and a decline limited to -0.4% at constant exchange rates.

Aiman Ezzat, Chief Executive Officer of the 乌鸦传媒 Group, said: 鈥淲e delivered a Q1 slightly better than our expectations in a macro and geopolitical environment that remains challenging. Clients continue to focus on transformation programs aimed at improving the agility, cost and efficiency of their operations.

We are well positioned and are taking advantage of the growing appetite of our clients for generative AI and agentic AI which represented more than 6% of our bookings in Q1. We continue to invest in training and assets and to reinforce our ecosystem in this domain with new initiatives with Nvidia and Google Cloud.

We are focused on opportunities in the fields of defense, sovereignty and cyber in Europe while continuing to benefit from global growth in digital core and digital continuity.

Considering the current context on international trade and tariffs, we are confirming our financial objectives for 2025 and as such we retain the cautious stance adopted at the beginning of the year.鈥�

	Revenues (in millions of euros)			Change
	2024	2025		Reported	At constant exchange rates*
Q1	5,527	5,553		+0.5%	-0.4%

乌鸦传媒 revenues reached 鈧�5,553 million in Q1 2025, corresponding to a revenue decline limited to -0.4% at constant currency*. This represents a +0.7 points improvement on the year-on-year growth rate reported in Q4 2024, primarily driven by the North America and United Kingdom and Ireland regions.

In a more volatile economic environment due to rising geopolitical tensions, the Group has not seen at this stage a material impact on client decisions. Large companies and organizations remain decidedly focused on transformation programs aimed at improving the agility and efficiency of their operations, at the expense of growth-oriented projects.

In that context, 乌鸦传媒鈥檚 high value-added services around Cloud, Data & AI and digital continuity enjoyed robust growth in Q1.

OPERATIONS BY REGION

At constant exchange rates, revenues in North America (28% of 2024 Group revenues) were back to slight growth in Q1, up +0.8% year-on-year. This performance was mostly driven by the TMT (Telecoms, Media and Technology) and Financial Services sectors, and partly offset by a decline in the Manufacturing sector.

The United Kingdom and Ireland region (12% of 2024 Group revenues) accelerated further on Q4 2024 growth rate with revenues up +3.9% year-on-year. The Public Sector and Energy & Utilities sector contributed the most to this growth, and Financial Services remained dynamic.

Revenues in France (20% of 2024 Group revenues) declined by -4.9% year-on-year, most notably due to persisting weakness in the Manufacturing and Energy & Utilities sectors. 

In the Rest of Europe region (31% of 2024 Group revenues), revenues were down by -2.3% year-on-year, reflecting the decline in the Manufacturing sector whereas other sectors were broadly stable.

Finally, the Asia-Pacific and Latin America region (9% of 2024 Group revenues) enjoyed solid growth with revenues up +7.6% year-on-year. The Public Sector and TMT sector posted a strong growth, complemented by robust momentum in the Financial Services and Manufacturing sectors.

OPERATIONS BY BUSINESS

At constant exchange rates, total revenues* of Strategy & Transformation consulting services (9% of 2024 Group revenues) grew by +1.2% year-on-year in Q1.

Total revenues of Applications & Technology services (62% of 2024 Group revenues and 乌鸦传媒鈥檚 core business) were up +1.9% year-on-year.

Finally,total revenues of Operations & Engineering services (29% of 2024 Group revenues) declined by -2.6% year-on-year.

HEADCOUNT

At March 31, 2025, the Group鈥檚 total headcount stood at 342,700, up +1.6% year-on-year and +0.5% compared to the end of December 2024.

Onshore headcount decreased by -1.4% to 143,300, while offshore headcount was up +3.9% to 199,400, i.e., 58% of total employees.

BOOKINGS

Bookings totaled 鈧�5,884 million in Q1 2025, up +2.8% year-on-year at constant exchange rates. The book-to-bill ratio stands at 1.06, above the historical average for the period.

APPENDIX[2]

BUSINESS CLASSIFICATION

• Strategy & Transformation includes all strategy, innovation and transformation consulting services.
• Applications & Technology brings together 鈥淎pplication Services鈥� and related activities and notably local technology services.
• Operations & Engineering encompasses all other Group businesses. These comprise Business Services (including Business Process Outsourcing and transaction services), all Infrastructure and Cloud services, and R&D and Engineering services.

DEFINITIONS

Year-on-year revenue growth at constant exchange rates is calculated by comparing revenues for the reported period with those of the same period of the previous year restated with the exchange rates of the reported period.

Reconciliation of growth rates	Q1 2025
Growth at constant exchange rates	-0.4%
Exchange rate fluctuations	+0.9pts
Reported growth	+0.5%

When determining activity trends by business and in accordance with internal operating performance measures, growth at constant exchange rates is calculated based on total revenues, i.e., before elimination of inter-business billing. The Group considers this to be more representative of activity levels by business. As its businesses change, an increasing number of contracts require a range of business expertise for delivery, leading to a rise in inter-business flows.

Operating margin is one of the Group鈥檚 key performance indicators. It is defined as the difference between revenues and operating costs. It is calculated before 鈥淥ther operating income and expenses鈥� which include amortization of intangible assets recognized in business combinations, expenses relative to share-based compensation (including social security contributions and employer contributions) and employee share ownership plan, and non-recurring revenues and expenses, notably impairment of goodwill, negative goodwill, capital gains or losses on disposals of consolidated companies or businesses, restructuring costs incurred under a detailed formal plan approved by the Group鈥檚 management, the cost of acquiring and integrating companies acquired by the Group, including earn-outs comprising conditions of presence, and the effects of curtailments, settlements and transfers of defined benefit pension plans.

Normalized net profit is equal to profit for the year (Group share) adjusted for the impact of items recognized in 鈥淥ther operating income and expense鈥�, net of tax calculated using the effective tax rate. Normalized earnings per share is computed like basic earnings per share, i.e., excluding dilution.

Organic free cash flow is equal to cash flow from operations less acquisitions of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets (net of disposals) and repayments of lease liabilities, adjusted for cash out relating to the net interest cost.

Net debt (or net cash) comprises (i) cash and cash equivalents, as presented in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (consisting of short-term investments and cash at bank) less bank overdrafts, and also including (ii) cash management assets (assets presented separately in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position due to their characteristics), less (iii) short- and long-term borrowings. Account is also taken of (iv) the impact of hedging instruments when these relate to borrowings, intercompany loans, and own shares.
