Q1 2024 revenue growth:

2.6% including 2.4% organic growth

Revenue of €634 million, up¹ 2.6%, driven by the continued growth of the finance leasing business (TMF), a gradual recovery of the Products & Solutions business and solid performance by Services

During the first three months of 2024, the businesses reported the following performances:

• Technology Management & Financing (TMF) continued to perform well, posting revenue of €207 million, an increase¹ of 10.6%, 10.2% organically, amid a continually tight credit market. Thanks to its flexible, innovative offering that addresses clients' need for financing of digital or strategic assets, TMF maintains its positive trend after posting strong growth in 2023.
• Revenue for Products & Solutions (P&S) totalled €305 million, down¹ 2.5% (2.6% organic). Performance in the first quarter varied from country to country but overall posted a notable improvement on H2 2023. Furthermore, the organic decline in P&S during Q1 2024 is in line with trends in the European IT distribution market, which reported decreases of 2% for Workspace solutions and 7% for Infrastructures³.
• Services continued its recovery, reporting its fourth consecutive quarter of growth. Revenue for the first quarter was up (total¹ and organic²) 3.2%, standing at €122 million, driven mainly by Spain and France.

2024 revenue growth guidance confirmed

After an altogether positive first-quarter performance, the group confirms its annual revenue growth guidance of between 3 and 5%, profiting from an IT asset distribution market expected to grow³ in the second half of 2024.
