SPIE 2025 Investor Day

Cergy, March 7^th 2025 – SPIE, the independent European leader in multi-technical services in the areas of energy and communications, is hosting its 2025 Investor Day today at 9 am CET. At this event, SPIE’s management team will provide an in-depth look at the Group’s strategy and value creation model.  Building on its unique positioning in markets that keep evolving and remain firmly driven by the energy transition and the digital transformation, SPIE is poised to deliver lasting growth. 

Gauthier Louette, Chairman and CEO of SPIE, declared: “Having already reached in 2024 the targets of our 2022-2025 plan, we are entering a new phase of growth and value creation. We are committed to consistently delivering on what makes our business model unique. Our strong positioning as an independent, pure-play leader in multi-technical services across Europe will enable us to capture the vast market opportunities offered by electrification and decarbonation, and deliver sustained high growth, driven by continued organic growth and our recurring, self-financed bolt-on acquisitions strategy. With an unwavering focus on operational excellence and strict financial discipline, we will keep expanding our margins and deliver best-in-class free cash flow. We place human capital and climate change mitigation at the very core of our model as we embark on a new and ambitious sustainability roadmap."

Opening a new chapter of value creation, with EBITA to exceed € 1bn by 2028

SPIE today announces its new 2025-2028 financial targets:

• Revenue is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 7% to 9%, including organic growth of 3% to 4% per year on average; 
  o    SPIE is well on track to reaching its full potential in Germany, set to be a very powerful growth engine for the Group in the years to come;
  o    In France, SPIE will capitalise on its strong positions and proven agility to seize long-term growth opportunities;
  o    In the Netherlands, now firmly established as the Group’s third pillar, SPIE has built rock-solid foundations for further expansion;
  o    The Group will leverage its strong cash-generative model to pursue its recurring, self-financed bolt-on M&A strategy, fuelled by sustained market consolidation momentum and a large spectrum of opportunities.  
• EBITA margin is expected to expand further and reach at least 7.7% by 2028, resulting in EBITA surpassing the € 1 billion mark by the end of the period;
