For the first half of 2025, group sales reached €444.6 million, down 8.7% year-on-year at constant scope. Managing Director François-Melchior de Polignac said, "Our performance reflects a gradual improvement in a difficult consumer environment," highlighting better results in June and growth in customer satisfaction and brand awareness. He also noted that online sales recovered after a poor first quarter, aided by improved SEA and SEO traffic.
The group achieved €18 million in cost savings in H1, supporting a €110 million target over three years. Store numbers slightly decreased to 334 at the end of June from 338 in December 2024, with affiliated stores rising to 16. Additionally, Maisons du Monde completed the full acquisition of Rhinov, a French online interior design consultancy, in H1 2025.
