EP Group, a company controlled by Daniel Křetínský, has submitted to the Board of Directors of Fnac Darty a draft public tender offer for the outstanding shares and OCEANEs of Fnac Darty.
The activity observed in December in France is down, especially in stores. The figures published by the Banque de France last week confirm a particularly difficult context for the retail sector with strong pressure on consumption and household confidence. Fnac Darty continued to outperform the market, thanks to its omnichannel and service-oriented strategy. The rest of Europe recorded a very satisfactory performance.
The challenges encountered by Nature & Découvertes for several quarters have persisted despite the initiatives put in place to resume the activity. The Group has decided to launch an active process to search a partner that would be better able to support its development. The activity will be reclassified in the consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2025 in accordance with IFRS 5.
Group revenue at the end of 2025 is expected to be stable LFL1 to €10,330 million, impacted by France's underperformance in the fourth quarter.
The Group's current operating income at the end of 2025 is expected to increase slightly to €203.1 million. The ROC of the France zone is expected to decline, impacted by a weak fourth quarter, while that of the rest of Europe is expected to increase slightly, thanks in particular to Italy.
After considering the reclassification to IFRS 5 of Nature & Découvertes and the recognition of an amortization of assets resulting from the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) related to the acquisition of Unieuro, the current operating margin is expected to reach 2.0% at the end of December 2025, an increase of around 5 basis points1.
Supported by optimised management of working capital, Free Cash Flow would reach €145 million, in line with 2024 excluding asset disposals carried out in the 1st half of 2024.
The Group is confident in its ability to implement its strategic roadmap of the Beyond everyday plan presented on 11 June 2025. The objectives communicated for 2030 are confirmed.
The audited 2025 annual results will be published on February 25, 2026, after markets close.
