Roularta A significant increase in EBITDA with stable sales

We saw € 159.5m 1H24 revenues (+0.1% y/y) and 1H24 EBITDA of € 11.4m (+36.5% y/y) so Roularta's continued investment in a multimedia market approach and the further expansion of the Dutch magazines ensured a significant increase in Roularta's EBITDA with stable sales.

The dividend stays flat pushing the pay-out ratio to 93.7% which we believe is too high. It is likely the largest part of interest rate increases is behind us as the EURIBOR 3m is at 2.52% and we assume the credit spread at 100 bps....
