Stable EBITDA and good free cash flow generation
Second quarter and first half 2023 results
Paris, 26 July 2023: The Supervisory Board of Tarkett (Euronext Paris: FR0004188670 TKTT), met today and reviewed the Group’s consolidated results for the half-year of 2023.
The Group uses alternative performance indicators (not defined under IFRS), described in detail in Appendix 1 on page 6 of this document:
In millions of euros | H1 2023 | H1 2022 | Change in % |
Revenue | 1,608.3 | 1,564.0 | +2.8% |

Net revenue in H1 2023 was €1,608 million, up by 2.8% compared to the first half of 2022. Organic growth reached 3.9%. The total effect of the selling price increases implemented in 2022 across all segments is +5.5% on average in 2023 compared to H1 2022. Over the period, volume fell by -2.1%. The strong Sport activity largely offsets the volume shrinkage in flooring, which is particularly pronounced in EMEA against a backdrop of weakness in the Residential segment. The currency effect contributed negatively, notably due to the depreciation of the Russan ruble, the Norwegian krone and the pound sterling in EMEA and the dollar.
Adjusted EBITDA amounted to €126.1 million, i.e., 7.8% of revenue, compared to €126.2 million in H1 2022, i.e., 8.1% of revenue.
The decrease in volumes sold contributed negatively to EBITDA. The combined effect of volume and product mix is -€45 million owing to the decrease in flooring, including more profitable products in the Commercial segment.
Raw material, energy and transport prices started to fall in the second quarter, with a positive net effect on the half-year of +€8 million compared to 2022, but wage inflation remains significant (-€16 million).
Selling price increases rolled out throughout the 2022 financial year led to a positive effect of +€85 million in H1 2023 compared to H1 2022 and is now starting to offset the additional costs linked to inflation of raw materials recorded since the second half of 2021.
SG&A are slightly up (€10 million) to support the growth of Sport and the launch of new flooring collections.
Foreign exchange had a negative -€15 million impact compared to the first half of 2022 due to the depreciation of the ruble and the weakening of the dollar.
The adjusted EBITDA margin for the first half of the year showed a slight decline (7.8% of sales compared to 8.1% in the first half of 2022).
EBIT amounted to €48.5 million in H1 2023 up from €44.2 million in 2022. EBIT adjustments (detailed in Appendix 1) amounted to €10.7 million in H1 2023 compared to €11.1 million in H1 2022. These include restructuring costs related to the Commercial, General and Administrative Expenses Savings Plan and the streamlining of the industrial organisation in Asia.
Financial expenses amounted to €33.9 million in H1 2023, compared to €14.4 million in H1 2022. This increase is mainly due to the rise in average gross debt over the half-year compared to H1 2022. The rise in interest rates is largely neutralised by hedging instruments implemented in 2021. The income tax expense amounted to €11.4 million in 2023, down compared to the previous year (€16.4 million) given the decrease in profit before tax.
Net profit in H1 2023 is €2.8 million, i.e., a diluted earnings per share of €0.04.
Revenue by segment
In millions of euros | H1 2023 | H1 2022 | Change | Of which organic growth | Of which organic growthOrganic growth(incl. CIS price changes)(1) |
EMEA | 443.1 | 487.0 | -9.0% | -7.2% | -7.2% |

TOTAL | 1,608.3 | 1,564.0 | +2.8% | +3.9% | +3.4% |
(1) Selling price adjustments in the CIS countries are historically intended to offset currency movements and are therefore excluded from the “organic growth” indicator (see Appendix 1). Significant price increases were implemented in 2021 and 2022 to offset the effects of inflation in purchasing costs, therefore the Group also measures the change in like-for-like sales including price adjustments in the CIS countries.

Comments by segment
The EMEA segment achieved a revenue of €443 million, down -9.0% compared to H1 2022. Volumes are down in the residential segment, where demand has slowed sharply due to the rise in interest rates and inflation which have slowed down the renovation and new construction market. The commercial segment is holding up better: our vinyl products for the healthcare and education and carpets for the office or hospitality experienced volumes of business close to 2022.
The segment’s adjusted EBITDA amounts to €37 million, i.e. 8.4% of sales, versus €54 million/11.1% of sales in H1 2022. This decline mainly reflects lower volumes, higher salary increases than in previous years, and a negative effect of exchange rates on European currencies against the euro. The effect of raw material purchase prices is still negative over the entire six-month period compared to the previous year, but it is fully offset by selling price increases.
The North America segment reported revenue of €458 million, up +1.6% compared to H1 2022, reflecting solid like-for-like growth of +0.7% at constant exchange rates and scope due to the selling price increase. The commercial segments (offices, healthcare and education) held up well and their volume of business was similar to last year over the six-month period. They benefited from a sequential improvement in accessories, carpet tiles and vinyl during the second quarter. The volume in residential remains very low against a backdrop marked by inflation and the rise in interest rates, which weighed on the renovation and construction of housing.
Adjusted EBITDA in the segment increased significantly to €41 million, i.e. 9% of sales, compared to €31 million/6.9% of sales in the first half of 2022, reflecting a favourable product mix effect, and a positive balance of inflation buoyed by the price increases deployed in 2022 and the start of the downturn in material costs compared to last year.
Sales in the CIS, APAC and Latin America segment amounted to €278 million, down -4.5% given the devaluation of the ruble against the euro. Sales at constant exchange rates and scope were slightly up +0.7%. They benefited from the improvement compared to the first half-year 2022 in volumes in Russia (+14%) and Ukraine (+89%) while the Group carried out a selective price drop to maintain the level of activity in a context that remains complex. In Asia, demand was quite low over the first half-year and the level of stock among distributors remains high. Selling price increases implemented in 2022 partially compensate for the lack of volume. The economic context also weighed on volumes in Latin America, but to a lesser extent.
Adjusted EBITDA for the CIS, APAC, Latin America segment fell to €37 million adjusted EBITDA, i.e., 13.2% of sales, versus €41 million/13.9% of sales in H1 2022, mainly due to the devaluation of the ruble. In the first half of the year, Russia accounted for less than 8% of Group sales and Ukraine less than 0.6%.
Revenue of Sport reached a new record and amounted to €429 million, a considerable increase of +28.1% compared to H1 2022. The level of activity remains particularly buoyant in a still dynamic market, particularly for artificial turf sports fields and athletics tracks in North America. Like-for-like growth at constant exchange rates and scope is +26.9%.
As a result of this very sustained activity, Sport posts a clear increase in adjusted EBITDA: €43 million /9.9% of sales compared to €28.4 million/8.5% of sales in the first half of 2022. This EBITDA growth results from the combination of the volume effect and an improvement in the margins of the main projects.
At the end of June 2023, working capital requirements fell by €10 million compared to the end of December 2022, despite strong seasonality, particularly in Sport. The Group implemented significant actions to reduce inventories, which now represent 70 days of activity compared to 110 days at the end of June 2022. In addition, annual negotiations with key suppliers have improved payment terms. Combined with the downside effect of purchase prices, these actions have led to a very significant reduction in working capital requirements: -€206 million compared to June 2022. Factoring programs represented a net financing of €182.6 million at the end of June 2023, up from the end of December 2022 (€174.2 million) and the end of June 2022 (€184.0 million).
Capital expenditures are under control and amount to €40.4 million given the capacity investment in Sport for yarn manufacturing and automation projects. In H1 2022, investments amounted to €46.4 million.
Despite the seasonality of its activities and thanks to inventory control, the Group generates a positive free cash flow in the first half-year of €27.3 million, while the first half-year is usually cash-consuming.
Net financial debt amounts to €649 million at the end of June 2023, versus €655 million at the end of December 2022 and €778 million at the end of June 2022. Compared to December 2022, debt is slightly down, and leverage remains the same at 2.8x the adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months.
At the end of June 2023, the Group had a high level of liquidity amounting to €552 million comprising the undrawn RCF in an amount of €251 million, other confirmed and unconfirmed credit lines in an amount of €78 million and €223 million in cash.
The macroeconomic environment will continue to weigh on the level of demand for our flooring products in the second half of the year, particularly in Europe. North America could benefit from a more favourable economic dynamic, with some activity indicators in the building sector now better oriented, especially in the residential sector.
Activity in Sport is still benefiting from a buoyant market and a solid order book that should allow for continued dynamic growth until the end of the 2023 season.
The purchase prices of most of the Group’s raw materials have decreased in the first half of the year and the Group does not anticipate any further increases for the time being. Wage inflation is higher than in previous years, and energy prices in Europe could rise again at the end of the year. At this stage, the Group maintains the selling price level reached at the end of 2022.
To compensate the low level of activity in Europe, the Group launched cost reduction actions and adapted its production plans in the factories to these downturned levels of activity.
Tarkett will continue to pay particular attention in the second half of the year to the control working capital and inventory levels in this weak business environment to maximise its cash generation and reduce its debt at the end of December.
