Q2 2025 earnings summary8 Aug, 2025

Executive summary

  • Group operating income for Q2 2025 rose 10.5% year-over-year to €1,092.3m, driven by Staci consolidation and e-commerce logistics growth, offsetting mail and North America declines.

  • Transformation plan accelerated, with Staci acquisition and Radial US margin actions offsetting mail and Press revenue declines and North America pressures.

  • EBIT guidance for FY25 reaffirmed, now trending toward the high end of €150–180m, supported by productivity gains and cost control.

  • Net cash inflow for Q2 exceeded €480m, mainly from bond issuance; no dividend paid this year.

  • Net result for Q2 dropped to €1.3m from €31.7m year-over-year, mainly due to lower net financial result.

Financial highlights

  • Q2 operating income: €1,092.3m (+10.5% year-over-year); adjusted EBIT: €58.3m (5.3% margin); net profit: €8.9m (adjusted, -77.4% year-over-year).

  • 1H25 operating income: €2,211.3m (+11.6% year-over-year); adjusted EBIT: €99.9m (4.5% margin); net profit: €8.1m (adjusted, -90.9% year-over-year).

  • Free cash flow for Q2 improved to -€18.0m (adjusted), and €132.1m for 1H25.

  • Net debt rose to €1,796.9m at June 30, 2025, reflecting Staci acquisition and new bond issuance.

  • Capex for Q2 at €30.9m, up 21.3% year-over-year, focused on e-commerce logistics and parcel capacity.

Outlook and guidance

  • FY25 EBIT guidance reaffirmed at €150–180m, now expecting the high end, supported by Radial US real estate management and Last Mile reorganizations.

  • H2 expected to be seasonally weaker for Benelux Last Mile, with higher costs to handle peak volumes; 3PL Europe and Radial US to benefit from synergies and new client onboarding.

  • Parcel volume growth in Belgium expected to remain mid-single digit, with ongoing efforts to win back clients lost during strikes.

  • Continued vigilance on trade tariffs and macroeconomic uncertainty, especially for year-end peak season.

  • Positive drivers include FTE reductions and resumed Last Mile reorganizations.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
