Unaudited figures

Commenting on the figures, Thierry Gadou, Chairman and CEO of VusionGroup, stated:

“The third quarter was in line with the trend of the first half of the year and consistent with our annual guidance for strong growth. During the quarter, revenue was increased by +59%, mainly driven by the United States but also by a return to slight growth in Europe. We also experienced strong growth in VAS revenue, thanks to the progress of all its software and service components. There was a significant increase in the VAS pipeline in recent months, with Computer Vision and Data solutions appearing increasingly attractive to retailers.

Our order entries in the third quarter reached a good absolute level but were still impacted by an unfavorable comparison effect due to strong order intakes in previous periods. This is a perfectly normal and anticipated factor, and on a 12-month trailing basis, our order intakes have increased significantly by +26%.

We are expecting the biggest quarter in our history in Q4 with revenue of around 500 million euros to reach our target of 1.5 billion euros for the entire year. Furthermore, the outlook and visibility for 2026 are excellent."

Strong growth in the first nine months of the year in line with expectations

The Group's revenue reached €355 million in the 3rd quarter on an adjusted basis1, up +59% compared to the 3rd quarter of 2024. For the first nine months of the year, the Group's IFRS revenue totaled €962 million, and €1,005 million on an adjusted basis1, representing a growth of +54% compared to the first nine months of 2024.

In terms of geography, growth was driven by North America. The breakdown of revenue in the first nine months of the year was:

  • 30% for the EMEA region, or €298 million on an adjusted basis1, down -11%. As expected, and previously mentioned, deliveries in EMEA are starting to benefit from contracts signed since the 4th quarter of 2024 and throughout the first half of 2025. As a result, the region posted a slight growth of +3% in the 3rd quarter of 2025, with a growing pipeline of business opportunities.
  • 70% for the Americas and Asia-Pacific, or €706 million on an adjusted basis1, up +122%, mainly driven by the United States. Growth is expected to continue there at a strong pace in the coming quarters. This excellent momentum is driven by the acceleration of deployment at Walmart.

 

Increasing order entries on a 12-month rolling basis

Global order entries grew by +12% to €1,292 million in the first nine months of the year. On a 12-month rolling basis, the level of orders reached €1,764 million, up +26%, at the end of Q3 2025. Order growth came from both Europe and the United States and reached a good level at this stage of the year.

 

Record VAS2 Sales

Revenue from software, services and non-ESL solutions reached €144 million in the first nine months of the year, up sharply by +115% compared to the first nine months of 2024. Recurring VAS revenue3 totaled €56 million, a +37% increase compared to the same period of 2024. Non-recurring VAS revenue4 strongly increased thanks to good momentum in software sales and services.

Our cloud installed base grew rapidly in the first nine months of the year, reaching some 314 million labels at the end of Q3 2025. This momentum is expected to continue in the coming quarters. As a reminder, the cloud installed base was about 135 million labels at the end of Q3 2024.

 

Outlook confirmed for 2025

With an excellent order book and despite a persistently challenging and uncertain tariff environment, VusionGroup continues to enjoy a strong level of visibility and confidence.

The Group confirms its revenue growth and profitability improvement targets, which have been revised upwards and announced during the publication of its 2025 half-year results.

Thus, the Group is targeting annual revenue of approximately €1.5 billion on an adjusted1 basis, representing a +50% growth over the year.

VusionGroup also expects to exceed its initial VAS revenue growth target of +80% for the entire year.

Finally, the Group also expects profitability improvement to continue, with adjusted1 EBITDA margin growing by +200 to +300 bps in 2025 vs 2024.

This increase in profitability should be accompanied by positive free cash flow generation.

VusionGroup's commercial momentum supports the outlook for solid growth in 2026.

Note on the IFRS Restatements related to the new Walmart contract

 

Two IFRS restatements related to the new Walmart contract impact 2025 financial disclosures:

  1. On June 2, 2023, at their Annual General Meeting, the Group's shareholders approved a grant to Walmart of 1,761,200 of stock warrants on the Group's shares. According to IFRS standards, the fair value of these warrants should be calculated. On June 2, 2023, the fair value of the warrants was established at €163m. A contract asset and a financial debt were thus recorded in the consolidated accounts for this amount.

    The contract asset, which is a fixed amount, is amortized in proportion to the forecast revenue generated by Walmart on the length of time that management estimated necessary for Walmart to spend $3 billion with the Group. The reduced revenue impact is customary as the warrants will only have a potential dilutive effect, which was modeled and communicated during the allocation of the warrants in early June 2023. This does not impact the actual sales invoiced to Walmart. This restatement has no impact on the Group's cash flow. It impacts revenue and all of the Group's income statement lines, in the same proportion. This negative impact to the Group's IFRS accounts will continue until Walmart has spent $3 billion with the Group, in direct proportion to the sales generated by this contract.

    The financial debt is subject to revaluation at each closing, depending on the number of exercisable warrants and the market price of VusionGroup shares. Any change is recorded as financial income in the Group's consolidated accounts. VusionGroup will continue to communicate at each closing the impact on revenue and net income of this IFRS restatement.
     
  2. The impact of future price reductions indexed to the volumes agreed upon with Walmart from the first deliveries of electronic shelf labels (ESLs): The cost of the Group's hardware solutions is a function of the volume manufactured. A significant increase in volume might thus lead to lower cost. Therefore, it has been agreed with this customer that they will be granted price reductions in relation to the future sales volume to which they contribute. The IFRS standard (IFRS 15) requires prices to be averaged over the life of the contract. The application of this restatement in 2023 impacts reported revenue (IFRS) compared to the revenue invoiced, even though price reductions will only be granted if and when volumes will have reached certain thresholds. The application of this standard has a negative impact on revenue and all income statement lines, down to net profit. Finally, it is important to note that cost reductions have already been negotiated with suppliers to guarantee at least the same level of margin on this contract in 2025.
