Aurélien Sonet, Chief Executive Officer of Pluxee,
commented:
“Pluxee continues to demonstrate strong business
momentum with high double-digit organic revenue growth in the third
quarter. As a result, we are pleased to be upgrading for the second
time our Fiscal 2024 Organic revenue growth objective. This
momentum is further amplified by the recent agreement to acquire
Cobee, an innovative Spanish digital player in Employee benefits,
in line with Pluxee’s targeted and disciplined M&A strategy. We
have also completed the strategic partnership with Santander,
enabling Pluxee to access over 1.4 million B2B clients from
Santander throughout Brazil, and will now accelerate on
integration. These achievements further reinforce our confidence in
our ability to meet both our near- and medium-term strategic and
financial objectives.”
Business update

first nine months of Fiscal 2024, including €13.8 billion in
Employee benefits of which €4.6 billion in the third quarter Fiscal
2024. It represents +11.6% organic growth over the first nine
months and +10.0% in the third quarter Fiscal 2024 in Employee
benefits business volumes.
This growth reflects the strong business momentum experienced by
the Group, driven by higher net retention, including a further
significant increase in average face value, as well as robust
business development fuelled by continuing new client gains.
Fiscal Q3 2024 revenue performance
Total Revenues reached
€297 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024, growing +17.9%

nine months of Fiscal 2024, showing a +21.8% organic growth. It
reflects Pluxee’s strong positive business momentum fuelled by a

Operating revenue reached €257 million in the
third quarter of Fiscal 2024, representing +9.1% total growth
including -2.4% currency translation effects. As expected,
operating revenue organic growth in the third quarter softened to
+11.4%. The strong business trajectory was partially balanced by
higher comparison basis.
Float revenue rose to €40 million in the third
quarter of Fiscal 2024, increasing +75.9% organically compared to
the same period the previous year. The increase was driven by the
continuous dynamic in business volumes issued expanding the Float
base year-on-year, coupled with the stabilization of interest rates
at a high level overall.

- In
Continental Europe, operating revenue reached €108
million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024, representing +5.3%
organic growth over the period. Positive business trend, especially
in Meal & Food in Belgium, France and Spain, was partially
offset by high comparison basis, notably in Eastern and Central
Europe.
- In
Latin America, operating revenue reached €102 million
in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024, growing +11.4% organically.
Double digit growth was delivered by almost all countries including
Brazil and Mexico, despite the more challenging comparison
levels.
- In Rest
of the world, operating revenue has increased
substantially up to €47 million in the third quarter of Fiscal
2024, showing a +25.3% organic growth. This results from the good
performance delivered across the region, especially in Türkiye,
India and Israel.

Employee Benefits generated operating revenue of
€220 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024, growing +15.0%
organically, driven by sustained growth in business volumes as a
result of high client net retention including incremental increase
in face values coupled with significant new client wins. Positive
business momentum was reinforced by an elevated take-up rate.
- Other
products & services generated operating revenue
of €37 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024, decreasing
-6.5% organically compared to Fiscal Q3 2023. Revenue growth in
Engagement solutions was offset by the discontinuation of a Public
benefit contract in Latin America.
M&A strategy execution
On June 12, 2024, Pluxee announced an
agreement to acquire 100% of Cobee, a fast-growing
digital Spanish employee benefits player that has expanded its
presence to Portugal and Mexico. With this acquisition, Pluxee will
strongly reinforce its leadership position in the Spanish market
while enhancing its existing offering and tech capabilities at
global scale. The transaction is subject to approval by Spanish
regulatory authorities.
Cobee serves more than 1,500 clients and 100,000 employee
consumers with a broad multi-benefit offering, which includes over
12 distinct products. With over 330,000 employee consumers, Pluxee
is a leading player in the Spanish employee benefits and engagement
market. The combination of Pluxee’s and Cobee’s talents and tech
assets will enable the roll-out of the most comprehensive and
attractive multi-benefits solution on the Spanish market.
Cobee is expected to deliver +100% year-on-year organic growth
in Fiscal 2024. The transaction should be neutral on Pluxee
Recurring EBITDA and Free cash flow in Fiscal 2025 and accretive to
Recurring EBITDA margin and Net income from Fiscal 2026, with rapid
margin improvement fuelled by strong revenue growth and operational
synergies. The transaction will be fully funded from existing
financial resources, with limited impact on leverage.
On July 3, 2024, Pluxee announced the
completion of its strategic partnership with
Santander, one of Brazil’s largest private banks.
Thanks to this 25-year exclusive distribution agreement, Pluxee
will accelerate growth in Meal & Food benefits and reinforce
its market leadership in Brazil, especially among SMEs.
Since the approval of the Brazilian authorities,
the integration of Santander’s employee benefits activity and the
distribution of Pluxee’s solutions in the Santander network, has
rapidly ramped up. The Group will leverage 4,000 Santander sales
managers, of which 2,500 are dedicated to SMEs, providing access to
more than 1.4 million Santander clients throughout Brazil.
As part of this partnership, Santander now retains 20% ownership
of Pluxee Brazil while the Group maintains an 80% controlling
interest in the combined business. The transaction will positively
contribute to Organic growth and Recurring EBITDA margin from
Fiscal 2025.
Outlook
During its Capital Markets Day, Pluxee
established financial objectives, at constant rates and scope,
focusing on delivering sustainable Organic revenue growth,
improving Recurring EBITDA margin and maintaining strong Cash
conversion rate. Following H1 Fiscal 2024 Results, Organic revenue
growth and Recurring EBITDA margin objectives were
upgraded.
In light of the growth achieved over the first nine months of
the fiscal year, Pluxee upgrades once again its organic
revenue growth objective for Fiscal 2024 to circa +18%,
from +15% to +17% previously. Fiscal 2024 Recurring EBITDA margin
objective of at least 35%, including standalone costs, is
confirmed.
Mid-term financial objectives are
reaffirmed, with the Group reiterating its ambition to
reach:
- low double digit Organic growth per year for
Fiscal 2025 and 2026
- c.37% Recurring EBITDA margin in Fiscal 2026;
and
- above 70% Recurring Cash conversion rate on
average over Fiscal 2024 to 2026.
