FDJ United (LFDJF) (H1 2025) Earnings Call Highlights: Strong Revenue Growth Amidst Challenges
Release Date: July 30, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points FDJ United (LFDJF) reported a 31% increase in revenues on a reported basis, reaching nearly 1.9 billion. The company aims for an average annual organic growth of around 5% from 2025 to 2028. FDJ United (LFDJF) targets a recurring EBITDA margin above 26% by 2028. The company is committed to increasing its dividend with a minimum payout ratio of 75% of adjusted net income. FDJ United (LFDJF) continues to excel in sustainability, aiming to grow its voluntary contribution to society and the environment from 2.7% of net income in 2024 to 5% by 2030. Negative Points Revenue was down 2% on a restated basis, considering the integration of Kindred. Recurring EBITDA decreased by 10%, with a margin of 23.6%, impacted by a one-off employee share ownership plan. Net financial income was negatively impacted by the Kindred acquisition financing, resulting in a net loss of 37 million. The effective tax rate increased to 40% due to a one-off additional income tax on large French companies. Retail sports betting revenue declined by 6%, mainly due to unfavorable sports results affecting the operator margin. Q & A Highlights Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Signs with LFDJF. Q: Can you provide more details on the top-line momentum in France, particularly regarding lottery growth and expectations for H2? Also, any updates on the regulatory environment in the Netherlands? A: In H2, we expect continued growth in lottery and retail sports betting, with lottery growth between 1% and 2% due to a tax rate increase in France. The Netherlands' regulatory environment remains stable, with no new changes expected. We are working on improving customer compliance with existing regulations. Q: Could you elaborate on the pipeline for lottery products, particularly the impact of new games like Crescendo? Also, any updates on the UK regulatory situation? A: Crescendo is a significant addition to our lottery offerings, launching in Q4, but its impact will be more pronounced in future years. Regarding the UK, we expect to align with the voluntary code by the end of Q3, which should stabilize the regulatory environment. Q: What is the outlook for cost evolution in OBG, and when will the impact of cost-saving initiatives be visible? A: Cost reductions in OBG will become more evident in 2026, driven by the merger of Uni and Sporting offers in France and the completion of the KSP rollout. These initiatives will significantly lower IT and external costs by 2027. Q: Can you provide more details on the deployment of KSP and which countries will migrate by the end of this year? A: We have not disclosed specific countries for competitive reasons, but several major markets will transition to KSP in early 2026. The rollout is progressing as planned, with some migrations expected in H2 2025 and others in H1 2026. Q: What is your perspective on the potential for online casino regulation in France? A: The likelihood of a public consultation on online casino regulation in France is low due to the current political environment. We do not anticipate any significant regulatory changes in the near term. For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript.

SEKISUI CHEMICAL Achieves Progress in Creating PFAS-Free Pipes for Ultrapure Process Applications in the Manufacturing of Advanced Semiconductors
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SEKISUI CHEMICAL CO., LTD. (TOKYO: 4204) (President: Keita Kato; hereinafter 'SEKISUI CHEMICAL') announced that, in response to the global trend of tighter regulations regarding perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and growing demand for reducing environmental impact, the Urban Infrastructure & Environmental Products Company (President: Yoshiyuki Hirai) had been developing a new technology for PFAS-free pipe materials for ultrapure process applications in the manufacturing of advanced semiconductors. As a certain level of progress has been established in the development of this technology, SEKISUI CHEMICAL will start to formally propose it to customers. 1. Background In the semiconductor and flat panel display (FPD) industries *, the ultrapure water being used needs to be supplied without lowering its water quality. The types of pipe materials for this purpose include those that use resin materials—hard polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and fluorocarbon resins (polyvinylidene fluoride or PVDF, polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE, and perfluoroalkoxy or PFA)—as well as those that use metallic materials in the form of metal pipes with special surface treatment. Today's advanced semiconductor industry, with the progress of ultra-miniaturization, requires pipe materials that can suppress the elution of inorganic and organic matter as far as possible. * The flat panel display (FPD) industry refers collectively to all industries related to the manufacture of flat panel displays, including liquid crystal displays, organic EL displays, and LED displays. 2. PFAS and Its Regulation PFAS refers to perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are difficult to break down in nature and may affect the human body or ecosystems. Among PFAS, the manufacture, import, and such of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) are already prohibited. As of now, PVDF, PTFE, and other materials used in fluorocarbon resin pipes and fittings for ultrapure process applications are not within the scope of regulation in Japan. However, in Europe and the United States, studies are being conducted to comprehensively subject PFAS to regulation. Together with other initiatives, there is a global trend of tighter regulations regarding PFAS. 3. Chronology of Development As a pioneer of plastic piping materials, SEKISUI CHEMICAL launched 'Eslon Clean Pipe'—a hard PVC pipe material for transporting ultrapure water—in 1984. Since then, supported by an impressive track record, the product has been used in a wide range of applications. This time, a special olefin resin pipe material has been developed as a new low-elution material replacing fluorocarbon resins from the perspective of PFAS. In November 2022, a demonstration using an actual ultrapure water manufacturing system was started jointly with Kurita Water Industries Ltd. Compared to existing fluorocarbon resin pipe materials, this special olefin resin pipe material can reduce CO 2 emissions during manufacturing by approximately 80%. Furthermore, in response to the global trend of PFAS regulation, SEKISUI CHEMICAL started working on developing PFAS-free pipes and fittings for ultrapure process applications. 4. Future Prospects With the establishment of this PFAS-free technology, SEKISUI CHEMICAL will start to formally propose it to customers and will aim for market launch within fiscal 2026. The company will also undertake development toward the early realization of creating valves, gaskets, and other pipe materials that are totally free from PFAS in the area of ultrapure process applications. SEKISUI CHEMICAL is accelerating the creation and market expansion of products—such as clean pipes—with high contribution to solving issues in the natural and social environments. For the realization of a sustainable society as well as sustainable growth as a company, the Products to Enhance Sustainability System is being promoted Group-wide to achieve ESG management at a higher level. SEKISUI CHEMICAL will seek to realize a sustainable society by 2030 through creating products that can contribute to solving issues in the natural and social environments when being manufactured as well as when customers use them.
