This change is due to: A currency effect of -0.4 %; A volume effect of -3.0%, due mainly to a fall in volumes of modular structures, for which the end markets are declining; A favorable price-mix effect of +16.0%, driven by a confirmed recovery in activities that have traditionally been profitable for the Group, such as Solar Protection and the new Solutions business lines, as well as the impact of price increases introduced to mitigate the negative effect of high inflation on certain raw materials. H1 2025 activity The Group posted sales of €178.7 million in the first half of 2025, up by more than 10% on both current and constant scopes and exchange rates. Half-year sales trends by geographical region are as follows: Europe posted solid revenue growth of 6.7% on a current scope and exchange rate basis and 6.5% on a constant scope and exchange rate basis, with sales of almost €129 million over the period, thanks to historic markets that remain well oriented. After a difficult 2024 exercise in North American markets, sales in the Americas rebounded strongly in the first half. Growth accelerated sharply between the 1st and 2nd quarters, taking half-year sales up to €23.4 million, representing growth at constant scope and exchanges rates of +49%. Sales in the Asia-Africa-Pacific region were up 5.4% on H1 2024, both on a current and constant scope and exchange rates basis, due to good momentum in the various markets. Outlook Based on a seasonal history between the first (driven by solar protection activity and tense architecture) and the second half of the fiscal year, the group will focus (despite an uncertain context, particularly on the geopolitical level) on maintaining its trajectory initiated with Transform 2025 that aims at increasing its adaptability and profitability. Financier calendar Publication of first half 2025 results on September 10, 2025, after market close.

Tech's New Marketing Edge: Empowering Hispanic Voices In STEM
As the U.S. Hispanic segment continues its growth trajectory, there's an immense potential for industries looking to diversify their talent population, especially in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). According to a recent Pew Research Center study, a majority of Hispanic Americans believe that increased representation in STEM would inspire more young Hispanics to pursue careers in these fields. For brands and marketers, these findings can be considered a significant business opportunity, potentially influencing how they can play a role in increasing representation, building trust, and tapping into the influence of this important segment. As the demand for STEM talent increases, the underrepresentation of Hispanics in these fields remains a significant challenge—Hispanics make up nineteen percent of the U.S. population, but only eight percent of the STEM workforce. The study sheds light on how representation, role models, and targeted initiatives could help bridge this gap and build a more inclusive future. I discussed this topic with Lilli Gil Valletta, an industry leader, Co-Founder and CEO of Culture+ Group, who expressed that: 'The future of the American workforce is already here, and it is Hispanic. This is not about quotas or representation; it is about maintaining our competitiveness as a nation. Today, one in three public school students is from Hispanic origin, and in our largest states—California and Texas—this proportion is one in two. Yet only less than five percent of Silicon Valley's high-tech workforce shares that identity. At a time when Hispanics are driving seventy-eight percent of net U.S. labor force growth, our size and growth still far outpace our presence as creators and innovators in STEM. Bridging this gap isn't just about 'equity'—it's about unlocking America's full economic and innovative potential. There is simply no growing talent pipeline if we don't tap into the segment driving most of the workforce growth.' Below are some initial thoughts on how marketers can leverage some of the conclusions of this study in their day-to-day strategies. 1. The Need for Representation in STEM Seventy-seven percent of Hispanic adults believe that increased representation of Hispanics in STEM would encourage more young people from their community to pursue these careers. Brands in tech, science, and education have an opportunity to feature Hispanic professionals in their marketing campaigns. Showcasing Hispanic engineers, scientists, or tech leaders can inspire the next generation while positioning the brand as a champion of diversity. 2. Addressing Stereotypes and Barriers The study also highlights the persistence of stereotypes and systemic barriers that discourage Hispanic participation in STEM. Many respondents noted that cultural expectations, financial challenges, and a lack of mentorship often deter young Hispanics from pursuing STEM degrees or careers. Brands can use their platforms to tell authentic stories that counteract stereotypes and celebrate Hispanic contributions to STEM fields. Financial barriers remain a significant hurdle for many Hispanic students. Brands that provide scholarships, grants, or paid internships can make a tangible impact. 3. The Role of Media and Marketing in Shaping Perceptions The Pew study report underscores the power of media representation in shaping aspirations. When young Hispanics see themselves represented as innovators, leaders, and problem-solvers, it can spark a sense of possibility and belonging. Representation in advertising is key. Brands should feature Hispanics in STEM-related contexts, whether in commercials, digital ads, or social media campaigns. Partnering with Hispanic influencers who advocate for education and STEM can expand a brand's reach and credibility. 4. Building Trust with Hispanic Communities The report highlights the importance of trust in fostering relationships with Hispanic communities. Authenticity and long-term commitment are essential for brands looking to make a meaningful impact. Brands need to go beyond performative gestures and demonstrate genuine commitment to improving representation and access to STEM opportunities. Transparency is key to building trust. Brands should track the success of their STEM initiatives and share the results with their audiences. 5. The Business Case for Diversity in STEM Diversity is not just a social imperative—it's a business advantage. Research consistently shows that diverse teams drive innovation and improve problem-solving, making the case for greater Hispanic representation in STEM a strategic one. Companies that prioritize diversity in their STEM workforce will attract top Hispanic talent, who are increasingly seeking employers that align with their values. Hispanic consumers are more likely to support brands that demonstrate a commitment to their community. Investing in STEM initiatives is a powerful way to build long-term loyalty. The Pew Research Center study makes it clear that representation matters. For brands and marketers, the call to action is equally clear. By investing in initiatives that promote Hispanic representation in STEM, brands can inspire the next generation of innovators while building trust and loyalty within the Hispanic community. In a world increasingly driven by technology and innovation, the future belongs to those who understand how the demographic changes in America are shaping the labor and consumer markets.
