  • First-quarter operating revenue of €519 million, up 21.8% as reported (+20.4% like-for-like) versus first-quarter 2022
  • Double-digit like-for-like revenue growth across all geographies and all business lines
  • Other revenue tripled year-on-year to €38 million from €13 million in first-quarter 2022, driven by both high business volumes and rising interest rates in all regions

  • Further strong business momentum, notably among SMEs, in markets that remain largely underpenetrated in the Group’s three business lines
  • Employee Benefits: increased attractiveness of Ticket Restaurant® and Beyond Food solutions (employee engagement, mobility) aimed at improving employees’ purchasing power
  • Fleet & Mobility: continued success of the Beyond Fuel offering, notably driven by the innovative and fully digital maintenance and toll management solutions
  • Complementary Solutions: extending Edenred CSI’s offer through the successful integration of IPS

Edenred confirms its targets for 2023: 

  • Like-for-like EBITDA growth >+12%
  • Free cash flow/EBITDA conversion rate >70%
