Bolloré Group reported revenue of €815 million in the first quarter of 2026. This marks a 6.5% increase at constant scope and exchange rates and a 4.3% rise on a reported basis.
Bolloré Energy led the growth. Revenue reached €731 million, up 7.9%. Higher oil prices, linked to tensions in the Middle East, supported performance despite slightly lower volumes.
The Industry segment declined. Revenue stood at €74 million, down 3.2% organically. Lower sales of Bluebus vehicles and reduced activity in Specialized Terminals weighed on results. Growth in the Films business partly offset the drop.
Other activities generated €10 million, showing a sharp decrease compared to last year.
Bolloré also reported a negative scope effect of €16 million, mainly linked to changes involving Foresea Technologies.
The group announced an exceptional dividend proposal of €1.5 per share. This represents a total distribution of about €4.2 billion. Shareholders will vote on the proposal at the Annual General Meeting on May 27, 2026.
If approved, the dividend will be paid on June 25, 2026. It will be distributed alongside a final ordinary dividend of €0.06 per share.
Bolloré SE also sold 5 million Vivendi shares in early 2026. The transaction generated €11.6 million.
Compagnie de l’Odet increased its stake in Bolloré SE. It acquired 36.9 million shares, representing 1.31% of the capital, for €177 million.
At the same time, Compagnie de l’Étoile des Mers raised its stake in Havas to 22.6%, following new share purchases and the acquisition of YB6.
The results highlight steady growth, led by the energy business, while the group continues to reshape its portfolio and capital strategy.
