Lancel ends fiscal year with 6.5% revenue growth
Lancel wrapped up its 2024–2025 fiscal year on a high note, reporting €68.8 million in revenue—a 6.5% year-on-year increase. The French leather goods house, owned by Italy's Piquadro Group since 2018, recorded growth across all distribution channels. Sales through Lancel's directly operated network—which spans around 80 boutiques, including more than 60 in France—rose by 8.7%. Like-for-like growth was even stronger, reaching 12.8%, while wholesale revenue posted a 2.8% uptick. Lancel's strong performance reflects the ongoing repositioning strategy it launched after Italy's Piquadro Group acquired the brand from Swiss luxury company evolution also includes a creative shift, marked by the appointment of Valeria Vigorelli—formerly of Chloé—as creative director at the end of 2023. 'In a challenging and unpredictable economic and geopolitical environment, the Piquadro Group has once again demonstrated resilience. We're pleased to end the 2024–2025 fiscal year with a 1.9% increase in revenue and a 10% rise in net profit. These results confirm the strength of our medium- and long-term strategy,' said Marco Palmieri, CEO and owner of the Italian leather goods group. 'We're especially proud of Lancel's performance, as the brand has returned to profitability for the first time—clear evidence of the success behind our repositioning and streamlining efforts,' Palmieri added. At the group level, including Piquadro and The Bridge, total revenue reached €183.6 million, marking a 1.9% year-on-year increase. EBITDA came in at €31.4 million, slightly below the €32 million reported as of March 31, 2024.

Le Coq Sportif: The bid backed by Xavier Niel and Teddy Riner 'hampered', according to their lawyers
The most likely bid is that of Franco-Swiss businessman Dan Mamane. Born in Toulon, the entrepreneur, as described in his profile in the Swiss media outlet Le Temps, moved to Switzerland at the age of 18 and graduated from HEC Lausanne. The Vaud-born entrepreneur built up his fortune in the electronics trade with the creation of his Powerdata group. He moved into retail in 2021, with the takeover and turnaround of Conforama Suisse, and earlier this year acquired the Ogier ski brand. At his side is former Fusalp CEO Alexandre Fauvet. Les Echos reports that Cédric Meston, head of Tupperware France, may also join the project. Although the details are not known, the fact that he would maintain jobs at the group's head office in Troyes would be a factor, as would the issue of receivables, which would limit the impact on local authority finances. The second offer came from a consortium comprising French billionaire Xavier Niel, judoka Teddy Riner, investment company Neopar, American group Iconix, as well as the current boss of Airesis, parent company of Le Coq Sportif, Marc-Henri Beausire, and the Camuset family, founders of the brand. In a five-page letter dated June 26 and addressed to the president of the court and the Paris public prosecutor - which AFP has obtained - the business law firm August Debouzy "requests the reopening of the debates within the framework of the examination of the draft recovery plans, in that the process followed to date has, in many respects, been vitiated by breaches of the fundamental principles governing collective proceedings." "It appears that the plan presented by the consortium made up of Iconix, Neopar, Airesis and their partners, despite having been duly submitted within the prescribed deadlines, has been deliberately hindered, weakened and then effectively ousted from the examination process," asserts the firm, which denounces a "methodical obstruction by the court-appointed administrators." According to August Debouzy, "the plan presented by the consortium was not rejected because of its economic or legal characteristics, but because the court-appointed administrators decided, from the very first weeks of the procedure, to make the plan supported by Mr. Mamane their own plan." According to the takeover plan made public in May, the consortium is 51% owned by Neopar, an investment company specializing in "company turnarounds" and owned by the Poitrinal family, 26.5% by investors, and 22.5% by the American group Iconix. The consortium had told AFP that it planned to contribute a total of 60 million euros, which would be "injected immediately" into the company. With AFP
