Bogart Group posted turnover of €28.5 million for the first quarter of 2017, up 15.4% on the same period one year earlier.
Revenue for the period increased 15.1% to €29.0 million (including licenses) and breaks down as follows:
- Distribution: €9.6 million as against €12.3 million for the first three months of 2016 when activity was boosted (+25.5%) by a number of product launches (Carven L'Absolu, Carven L'eau Intense and Silver Scent Pure by Jacques Bogart). Turnover for Group brands in Bogart's own network is restated under Boutiques.
- Boutiques: up 52.4% to €18.9 million, bolstered by the integration of HC Parfümerie Group (80 own-brand boutiques and 7 franchise stores) acquired in December 2016.
- Licenses: €0.5 million in licensing contracts granted for Group brands.
There were no significant changes to Bogart Group's financial position over the period.
A clear roadmap to underpin Group growth
Staying true to its business model of vertical integration (manufacturing – distribution) in Europe, Bogart Group intends to pursue its virtuous growth cycle in 2017.
The Group looks forward to robust activity for its Distribution business in 2017 as it continues with the international deployment of its Carven brand, and expansion into new markets in Europe (including Germany), the Middle East and Latin America and into Travel Retail. The second half of the year will also be marked by the launch of a new exclusive Carven collection and the rollout of the April cosmetics brand across the entire network.
The integration of HC Parfümerie is a natural springboard for the Boutiques business in 2017, and the Group will remain attentive to new opportunities for external growth that will allow it to continue to deploy its April brand.
