The Group's annual financial statements confirm the strength of its model, built on two complementary B2B/B2C pillars, and a sound balance sheet position.
Reworld Media's strategy demonstrates its relevance in a dynamic and constantly evolving digital marketing market. In particular, the Group benefits from its benchmark positions on social networks and its recognized leadership in conversational environments (LLMs).
In this context, where artificial intelligence is overweighting major media brands and giving rise to GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation), Reworld Media is already the 1st media group consulted by LLMs (Large Language Models) in France2.
Consolidated revenue: €529.3m, with 60% generated by the BtoB division
Reworld Media posted stable annual consolidated revenue of €529.3m at 31 December 2025, (-1.0%
| -€5.5m), including a 2.7% decline in the first half and a 0.6% growth in the second half, with notable improvements across both operating divisions. The BtoB division delivered a 3.7% growth in the second half (H1: +0.9%) and the BtoC division a limited decline of 3.9% (H1: -7.4%).

The BtoB division generated annual revenue of €316.0m, up 2.4% (+€7.3m), and now accounts for 60% of the Group's consolidated revenue (2024: 58%). Made up of 85% digital activities, this division is developing in a communications market marked for the past 6 years by a shift in investments from traditional media towards digital (+12 pts)3, in direct response to the growing use of social platforms and conversational agents.
Its digital activities grew by 4.7%, driven by growth of over 25% in the social segment which now generates annual revenue of €37m. The Group is gradually reaping the benefits of investments made in recent years in social offerings (social content, social publisher, influencer marketing) and performance-based offerings (affiliate marketing, content-to-commerce, retail media).
- The BtoC division generated revenue of €213.3m (40% of consolidated revenue), down 5.7% (-€12.8m) in a consumer environment where price and volume management remains demanding. The share of revenue generated from subscription sales rose to 47% (+1 pt vs 2024), and the average subscription basket reached €5.78 excl. VAT, up 6.8% year on year.
The Group has 1.4 million paid subscriptions in France, 20% of which relate to diversified offers (paywalls, TV, services). It is continuing its loyalty initiatives and diversification strategy through the ongoing enrichment of content offerings (special issues, collections, mooks) and the roll-out of attractive services for its brands and audiences across all channels.
Consolidated EBITDA: €55.4m, up 3%
Reworld Media generated consolidated EBITDA of €55.4m at 31 December 2025, up 3.0% (+€1.6m), representing an EBITDA margin up to 10.5%, (+0.4 pt vs 2024). This operating performance reflects disciplined execution of a model that is evolving towards new balances between two BtoB/BtoC activity pillars.
The BtoB division reported EBITDA of €38.8m, up 10.7% (+€3.7m), and now contributes to 70% of the Group's total EBITDA. The division's EBITDA margin stood at 12.3%, up 0.9 pts compared with the previous year. The BtoC division reported EBITDA of €16.6m, down 11.3% (-€2.1m). Its EBITDA margin stood at 7.8%, a level comparable with the previous year (8.3%). With a strong focus on profitability, the BtoC division demonstrated resilience in print, notably through greater variability in operating costs (down 5.2% over the year). The Group's operating income (EBIT) reached €48.4m at 31 December 2025, up 3.6% (+€1.7m). The financial result amounted to -€9.5m, compared with -€8.8m in the previous financial year.2France Ahrefs 2026 study

Consolidated net income came to €19.9m, down 20.6% (-€5.2m), after exceptional items of -€15.5m (2024: -€9.0m), not altering the economic fundamentals. This increase results from the recognition of an exceptional provision related to the Bagneux lease (expiring in 2030), the premises of which are underutilized, as the Group has been seeking to divest itself of this lease for several years in order to reduce rental charges significantly and on a lasting basis.Strong balance sheet, ongoing debt reduction
On the balance sheet, Reworld Media reported consolidated equity up to €251.5m at 31 December 2025 and cash of €96.8m, in clear improvement (2024: €86.7m).
The business generated operating cash flow of €58m during the year (2024: €52.3m).
The Group continued along its debt reduction trajectory, reducing gross financial debt by €10.6m to
€177.8m at 31 December 2025. Net debt fell to €81m (2024: €101.7m), representing a net debt ratio
of 1.5x EBITDA in 2025 (2024: 1.9x).
« The results of the year illustrate the strength of Reworld Media's business model and the quality of its financial fundamentals. The BtoB division is stepping up with a profitability rate above 12%. And, we are maintaining satisfactory ratios in our BtoC activities.
Reworld Media has placed debt reduction and improving its operating cash-flow at the heart of its priorities for 2025, thereby strengthening its financial position.» - Anne-Cécile Balland, Chief Financial Officer & CSR.

Today we give priority to social and to the conversational-agent environment (LLMs), whose rise to power is evident in light of the rapid evolution of uses. Reworld Media is taking the lead in these high-potential markets by combining content, brands and proprietary technology. The Group is growing on the basis of a sound model, with agile teams and the same tech DNA that has driven its success. Strengthened by its recent deployments, it is in a position to accelerate» - Gautier Normand, Directeur général.
