Fiscal 2024 consolidated revenues reached 23.8 billion euros, up +5.1% year-on-year, including a negative currency impact of -1.8% resulting from the appreciation of the euro against most currencies and a net contribution from acquisitions and disposals of -1.0% mainly linked to the sale of the Homecare activities in October 2023. Consequently, Fiscal 2024 organic revenue growth was +7.9%, which was driven by effective inflation pass-through, accelerated net new contribution, some ongoing post-Covid recovery and a standout year at Sodexo Live!. This included both the Rugby World Cup and the Paris Olympics as well as multiple lounge openings especially in North America. The Olympic contract boosted Fourth quarter Fiscal 2024 revenue by 66 million euros, and together with the Rugby World Cup, accounted for +0.4% in full-year organic growth.

Food services were particularly strong with an organic growth of +9.3%, now representing 66% of Group revenues, increasing from 64% in Fiscal 2023, and back up to pre-Covid levels. FM services were up +5.5% organically.

The commercial momentum was strong in Fiscal 2024:

  • Net new signings during the year were 1.6%, a -60 bps drop compared to last year, but still a significant improvement compared to pre-Covid levels. This net new will contribute to Fiscal 2025 growth;
  • New sales development was 7.4%, well within the target range of 7-8%, and up +40 bps versus last year. Total new signings during the year, including cross-selling, were the highest ever at 1.9 billion euros compared to 1.7 billion euros in Fiscal 2023. The renewed pipeline of targeted contracts has helped boost the volume of signings and has also been accretive to the gross margin;
  • Client retention rate ended at 94.2%, -100 bps lower than the previous year. This drop is largely attributed to the loss of a large Global FM contract for 60 bps, as well as two losses in Energy & Resources in Latin America for 30 bps, due to a very competitive environment.
