Spirits group Rémy Cointreau announced its results for the past financial year on Thursday, declaring that they had exceeded expectations.

 

Rémy Cointreau announced a 38.8% increase in net profit to 293.8 million euros for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023.

 

Profit from recurring operations (ROC) also grew by 28.5%, and by 16.2% on an organic basis, to 429.6 million euros. This performance translated into an operating margin before non-recurring items of 27.7%, compared with 25% the previous year. In the Group’s main branch, cognac, ROC rose by 14.7% on an organic basis to 405.2 million euros, with a margin of 36.8%, compared with 34.1% the previous year.

 

Rémy Cointreau had already announced its sales for fiscal 2022-2023, up 10.1% to 1.55 billion euros. At that time, the cognac maker confirmed its expectation of “significant organic growth” in profit from recurring operations for 2022-2023. According to analysts surveyed by FactSet, the average forecast for this ROC was €426 million for this fiscal year.

 

“Rémy Cointreau has had a record year, and is consolidating its lead on its 2030 strategic plan. In three years, Rémy Cointreau has changed dimension and category, with sales rising from 1 billion to 1.55 billion euros over the period, and an operating margin before non-recurring items up 5 points”, said Éric Vallat, the Group’s CEO.

 

First quarter down

 

The wine and spirits group has issued a warning that its sales are expected to fall by 30% to 40% in the first quarter of the current financial year. This decline is mainly attributed to a sharp drop in business in the United States. However, the Group expects a gradual recovery from the second half of the year onwards.
