HOPSCOTCH GROUPE
Consolidated Turnover for 4th Quarter 2023
A New Year of High Growth

HOPSCOTCH (Euronext Growth FR0000065278), a communications consulting group and a major player in Digital Marketing & Communications, Public Relations, and Events, announces its consolidated turnover and gross margin to December 31, 2023.

(*) Unaudited data

        
Hopscotch’s consolidated turnover amounted to 271.9 million euros, and the consolidated gross margin reached 93.0 million euros for fiscal 2023, once again beating remarkable values, following the excellent performance of the previous year. Fiscal 2023 benefited from the continuous growth of the events business, mirroring last year’s successes. The group's core businesses continue their steady organic growth. Hopscotch consolidates a full year's worth of companies specializing in sports in its gross margin, compared to only half a year in 2022, with a favorable impact on gross margin of around 2 million euros.

With the finalized acquisition of Interface Tourism on January 31 last year, sales would have approached 300 million euros, and gross profit would have exceeded the symbolic threshold of 100 million euros. With an operating margin surpassing gross profit of 15%, Interface Tourism will be accretive in the consolidated financial statements in 2024. Numerous commercial, business, and geographic synergies will develop from the merger with Interface Tourism. Hopscotch will gain a foothold in Spain and the Netherlands and strengthen its position in Italy. 40 offices across the global now compose its network.

The acquisition, as recently published, is paid for half in cash, and half in newly-issued shares: the EGM of January 31, 2024 voted to create 236,279 new shares, bringing the total number of shares to 3,003,722 and the share capital to €2,252,791.50.

HOPSCOTCH will publish its consolidated annual results for 2023 on Tuesday April 2, 2024, before stock-markets open.
