Unaudited figures

In 2025, consolidated net sales amounted to €8,260m, up +0.5% LFL and down -2.5% in total, after taking into account a -0.3-pt calendar effect (leap year in 2024) and the roughly -2.7-pt effect of changes to the convenience brand network.

In Q4 2025, net sales amounted to €2,180m, up +0.5% on a LFL basis and down -1.6% in total, after taking into account a +0.3-pt calendar effect and the roughly -2.4-pt effect of changes to the convenience brand network.

  • Convenience brands (Monoprix, Franprix, Casino, Spar, Vival and Naturalia) reported broadly stable LFL net sales in Q4, in a market environment impacted by a decline in sales of festive products at the end of the year (-4,4% in value and -3,4% in volume recorded in the festive categories over the last 4 weeks of 2025 according to Circana data).
  • Cdiscount returned to growth in Q4 net sales for the first time since Q3 2021, at €335m for the quarter (+3.7%), reflecting the dynamism of activity on the cdiscount.com website, both in terms of direct sales and the Marketplace.

 Monoprix:

  • In 2025, Monoprix net sales rose by +0.6% LFL, supported by +0.4% growth in customer traffic. In Q4 2025, the LFL change was -0.5%, reflecting the decline in sales of festive products at the end of the year in a downward-oriented market, resulting in a slight decline in customer traffic over the quarter (-0.9%). Food sales were down by -1.5%, while non-food sales (+1.5%) were once again driven by the Fashion & Home segment (+3.6%), which continues to outperform the market. Growth in e-commerce (+0.7%) also supported the trend, partially offsetting the decline in Monoprix City (-0.6%) and Monop’ (-0.4%).
    Monoprix continued to develop its “La Cantine” food concept with 7 new roll-outs in Q4 2025. Originally launched in April, the new concept had been adopted by 13 stores at end-December 2025. The promising initial results have been confirmed, with an accretive effect on net sales in the pilot stores. Actions to streamline the Monoprix store network resulted in the closure of 4 stores and the transfer of 27 owned stores to franchises4 in Q4 2025 (20 closures and 30 transfers of owned stores to franchises in 2025). The brand also opened 7 new outlets during the quarter (26 since the beginning of the year).

Franprix:

  • Franprix recorded a -0.4% decline in LFL net sales in 2025, in a context where customer traffic nevertheless remained on a clear +3.8% upward trajectory. In Q4 2025, LFL net sales were down by -1.4%, although customer numbers remained buoyant (customer traffic up +2.5%). Over the quarter, the solid contribution of owned stores (+2.1%), which was driven by the streamlining of the store network, was not enough to offset the decline in performance of non-consolidated franchise stores (“independent”) (-2.3%) and master franchisees (-3.1%)5. Performance was also impacted by an unfavourable weather effect (-0.7 pts). The momentum of stores converted to the “Oxygène” concept was confirmed in Q4, sharply outperforming the rest of the store network (+5.0% vs. -1.4% for the network), which helped to sustain the trend (+0.5 pts). The concept was extended to an additional 33 stores over the quarter, bringing the number of stores converted to the new concept to 107 at end-December 2025. The streamlining of the Franprix store network continued during the quarter with 21 store closures and the transfer of 2 business leases to owned stores (85 closures and 3 transfers of owned stores to franchises or business leases in 2025). Over the quarter, the brand also opened 7 stores (29 in 2025).

Casino / Spar / Vival:

  • In 2025, net sales at the Casino, Spar and Vival brands rose by +0.6% on a LFL basis, with Q4 2025 marking a third consecutive quarter of growth (+0.3%). Over the quarter, seasonal stores once again drove the trend, with a good start to the winter season in the mountains for the Spar and Sherpa stores. Performance was also supported by supply chain efficiency, with an improvement in the service rate6 to over 96% in the quarter (+2.9 pts vs. Q4 2024).
    The roll-out of the “Coeur de Blé” quick meal solutions concept continued, with 26 new dedicated outlets opened this quarter (62 at end-December 2025) and around 60 planned for 2026. Similarly, the new Spar “Origines” concept was rolled out in 4 additional stores in Q4 (5 at end-December 2025) and the brand plans to accelerate the roll-out in 2026, with around 20 new stores. All the stores rolled out in 2025 confirm the net sales growth perspective. Over the year, the Casino, Spar and Vival brands reported a +0.9% increase in customer traffic7 on a LFL basis (including a +0.2% increase in Q4), while the overhaul of the “Coup de pouce” loyalty programme has boosted customer loyalty, with 128,000 cards created in 2025 (+48% vs. 2024) and a share increased to 15% of net sales in eligible stores in December. In terms of changes to the store network, the Casino, Spar and Vival brands reported 186 store exits, 50 store openings and 11 transfers of owned stores to franchises or business leases in Q4 2025 (1,052 store exits in 2025 due in particular to the departure of master franchisees Puig&Fils and Magne in H1 2025, as well as 151 store openings and 78 transfers of owned stores to franchises or business leases in 2025).

Naturalia:

  • Naturalia recorded LFL net sales growth of +8.3% in 2025, including +8.4% in Q4 2025. The solid performance over the quarter was driven by food sales (+9.0%), particularly of fresh products (+9.8%). The brand continued to benefit from solid growth in customer traffic (up +6.7% in Q4 and +8.2% over the year) and a loyal customer base (with 74% of net sales generated by loyalty card holders).
    In a continuing favourable trend observed in the organic market, Naturalia’s performance benefited from effective in-store initiatives and the “La Ferme” concept, which continues to demonstrate its success, with LFL net sales in stores already converted in 2024 up +17% over the quarter. Roll-out of the concept continues, with 13 new launches this quarter, bringing the total to 36 by the end of December 2025. The quick meal solutions offering is expanding, with 35 new stores switching to the organic snacking concept by the end of 2025 and initial results are encouraging. E-commerce sales also performed well in the quarter, with double-digit growth for the brand’s website (+25.0%), while the quick commerce partnership with Uber Eats continues to roll out, covering 72 stores at end-December 2025 (+25 in Q4 2025). Naturalia closed 4 stores in Q4 2025 (16 closures, 1 opening and 1 transfer from an owned store to a business lease in 2025).

Cdiscount:

  • Cdiscount confirmed the positive momentum seen throughout 2025, with an acceleration in business in Q4 2025. The brand recorded a +6% rise in overall GMV8 over the quarter (+3.5% in 2025), driven by a solid performance during Black Friday and the end-of-year holiday season. Marketplace GMV continues to support the trend, with +8.1% growth in the quarter (+7.7% in 2025), representing 65.4% of Product GMV8 in Q4 (+1.1 pts year on year), while direct sales GMV returned to growth over the quarter (+2.9% in Q4 vs. -1.1% in 2025), driven in particular by a solid performance of the video games category in November and December.
    The year 2025 also marked a turning point, with the active customer base returning to growth following the success of the marketing relaunch plan, which led to a significant acceleration in new customer acquisition to more than 2 million over the year, i.e. +41%, including +45% in Q4. Net sales rose by +3.7% in Q4 2025 (-0.7% in 2025), the first quarter to show an increase in over four years, reflecting the dynamism of activity on the cdiscount.com website, both in terms of direct sales and the Marketplace. This performance was also underpinned by the momentum of Cdiscount Advertising (revenues up +11% in Q4, +8% in 2025), driven by the solid performance of Retail Media and the success of the “sponsored brand videos” offering launched in Q3.
