Meeting on July 29, 2022, Bolloré’s Board of Directors approved the financial statements for first-half 2022.
Revenue amounted to €11,517 million, up 24% at constant scope and exchange rates:
- Transport and Logistics: €4,819 million, up 44%:
- Bolloré Logistics: +60%, driven by the increase in freight rates and air volumes in freight-forwarding;

- Bolloré Logistics: +60%, driven by the increase in freight rates and air volumes in freight-forwarding;
- Oil Logistics: €1,619 million, up 41%, mainly due to the sharp rise in oil prices linked to the international environment;
- Communications: €4,870 million, +5%, attributable mainly to the strong rebound at Havas (+11.8%) and the growth of Canal+ Group (+2.2%);
- Electricity Storage and Systems: €205 million, +21%, the result of growth in Systems business activities (dedicated terminals and Polyconseil) and activities in Brittany (plastic films and buses).
On a reported basis, revenue grew 29%, taking into account a positive change in scope of +€173 million (mainly the acquisition of Prisma Media in May 2021) and +€163 million in foreign exchange impacts (global depreciation of the euro, particularly against the dollar).
Adjusted operating income (EBITA (3)) came out at €1,006 million, for an increase of 48% at constant scope and exchange rates:
- Transport and Logistics: €483 million, up 49%, owing to the sharp increase in freight forwarding and, in Africa, the good performance of port terminals and the recovery in logistics;
- Oil Logistics: €76 million, up +226% as a result of the substantial increase in the prices of oil products;
- Communications: €531 million (4), +24%, underpinned by the good performances of Havas and Canal+ Group;
- Electricity Storage and Systems: -€60 million, down -€10 million on a reported basis compared with first-half 2021, owing in particular to the sharp rise in costs (resins, electricity) and the decline in battery activity.
Financial income amounted to €480 million, compared with -€30 million in first-half 2021. The total includes €526 million in capital gains on Banijay Holdings Group following Vivendi’s exchange of its 32.9% stake in Banijay for a 19.9% stake in FL Entertainment, listed since July 1, 2022.
Net income from equity-accounted non-operating companies was -€210 million, compared with -€25 million in first-half 2021. It mainly includes -€235 million of Telecom Italia’s share of net income.After taking into account a tax expense of -€231 million (compared with -€198 million in first-half 2021), consolidated net income totaled €931 million, against €628 million in first-half 2021.
Net income, Group share amounted to €301 million, compared with €100 million in first-half 2021.
Shareholder's equity stood at €30,671 million, compared with €31,336 million at December 31, 2021, a result of the decrease in share prices (-€1.5 billion).
Net debt was €4,682 million compared with €3,491 million at December 31, 2021, taking into account:
- The increase in Vivendi’s debt (+€1.1 billion) resulting from the acquisition of 12% of Lagardère and returns to shareholders (share buybacks and dividends).
- The increase in Compagnie de l'Odet’s debt excluding Vivendi (+€67 million).
In light of these factors, the gearing ratio was 15%, versus 11% at the end of 2021.
At end-June 2022, the Group had €6.6 billion in confirmed lines, including €3.8 billion for Compagnie de l’Odet including Bolloré.

Furthermore, it should be noted that other companies may define and calculate these indicators differently. It is therefore possible that the indicators used by Compagnie de l’Odet cannot be directly compared with those of other companies.
The percentages changes indicated in this document are calculated in relation to the same period of the preceding fiscal year, unless otherwise stated. Due to rounding in this presentation, the sum of some data may not correspond exactly to the calculated total and the percentage may not correspond to the calculated variation.
