Digital Marketing: Strategic growth engine (+19.5%)
Paris, December 1st, 2025 (8:00am) - The DÉKUPLE Group, a European leader in communication and data marketing, delivered solid performance over the first nine months of 2025, confirming the strength and relevance of its integrated growth model.
Bertrand Laurioz, Chairman and CEO, stated: “Over the first nine months of 2025, DÉKUPLE once again demonstrated the resilience of its multi-expert model and its ability to combine growth with profitability in a demanding environment.
Our net sales grew by +12.7%, fueled by the strong momentum of Digital Marketing and the acceleration of our international operations, which now represent 17% of total net sales, compared with 8% a year ago.
Digital Marketing, now at the core of our value creation and representing over 70% of consolidated net sales, continues to gain momentum thanks to the rebound in consulting, the integration of new agencies and technological solutions, the international expansion of our offerings, and our leadership in artificial intelligence applied to marketing. This momentum reflects the Group’s ability to bring together talent, enhance expertise, and create synergies across its businesses to drive client performance.
Our Magazines and Insurance activities continue to play a strategic role in our transformation, with a focus on personalization and customer value. In the press segment, despite a challenging consumption environment, we are strengthening recurring revenues through targeted acquisition campaigns and the launch of new offerings. In affinity insurance, our AI-enhanced programs are driving portfolio loyalty.
We continue to pursue our selective and profitable growth strategy, built on innovation, operational excellence, and successful international integration. The Ambition 2030 Plan, to be unveiled in early December, will structure our long-term vision and guide the next phase of our development, reinforcing our position as Europe’s creative and technological leader in data marketing.
I would like to thank our 1,200 employees for their commitment and innovative mindset - the driving forces behind DÉKUPLE’s continued success.”

DIGITAL MARKETING: CONSULTING REBOUND AND EXPANSION OF AGENCIES & SOLUTIONS

After the first half impacted by delayed client decisions, activity rebounded sharply in Q3 (+12.1%). With 450 consultants across Europe and North America, Converteo plays a major role in data, digital, and AI-driven transformation projects for major brands.
- Agences and Solutions: Net revenue reached €45.1m (+38.4%), including €14.0m from scope effects. On a like-for-like basis, the contained -4.9% decline reflects persistent caution in marketing spending in Europe, offset by the scaling of the Group’s technology solutions and international expansion.

1 Net sales (determined in line with the French professional status for subscription sales) only include the amount of remuneration paid by magazine publishers; for subscription sales, net sales therefore correspond to a net revenue (formerly gross margin), deducting the cost of magazines sold from the amount of sales recorded. For acquisition and management commissions linked to sales of insurance policies, net sales comprise current and future commissions issued, acquired by the accounting reporting date, net of cancellations.
2 For the digital marketing business, the net revenue (formerly gross margin) represents the total amount of net sales (total invoices issued: fees, commissions and purchases charged back to customers) less the total amount of costs for external purchases made on behalf of customers. It is equal to net sales for the magazine and insurance business lines.
3 The scope effect is calculated (i) by eliminating the net revenue of companies acquired during the period or the comparable period and (ii) by eliminating the net revenue of companies sold during the period or the comparable period. As a result, the like-for-like business does not take into account this scope effect for the period concerned.
4 Gross sales volume represents the value of subscriptions sold.
