Wall GmbH Reports Strong First-Half Financial Performance
Wall GmbH, a leading player in the Out-of-Home advertising industry, has announced its financial results for the first half of 2025. The company reported a robust performance, with key revenue streams showing steady growth.
The company's total revenue grew by 3.3% to 1,868.3 million euros, driven by a 4.3% organic growth in Street Furniture and a 3.2% organic growth in Transport Media. Digital revenues, which now account for approximately 40% of the group's revenue, grew by 12.2%.
The digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) revenues surged by 25.2%, with programmatic revenues increasing by the same percentage, now representing 10.1% of digital revenues. This growth underscores Wall GmbH's commitment to digital transformation and its success in capturing the growing digital advertising market.
The operating result stood at 17.6%, recording a significant increase of 17.6 million euros to 307.4 million euros. The Transport Media and Street Furniture divisions contributed to this growth, with operating results increasing by €26.1 million and €17.6 million respectively.
The EBIT before impairment expenses was 11.6% at 125.6 million euros, or 114.7% excluding one-time items. The group's net income after impairments decreased by 18.5 million euros to 75.9 million euros, compared to the same period in 2024. However, the company's equity investments share of net income saw an increase of 5.1 million euros to 19.0 million euros.
Operational cash flow was 10.7%, indicating a strong cash position for the company.
In terms of regional performance, North America and the Rest of the World were the fastest-growing regions, with the Asia-Pacific region also showing positive growth despite a mid-single-digit decline in China. The UK, however, saw a decline of -2.9% year-over-year, but recorded a substantial organic growth of +29.8% in the first half of 2024.
The company expects a negative organic revenue growth in the low single-digit range for the third quarter of 2025, taking into account a negative base effect of approximately 410 basis points due to the Olympic Games 2024 in Paris and the UEFA. However, high single-digit organic growth is expected compared to 2023 for the same quarter.
