Cegedim’s consolidated first-quarter 2025 revenues rose to €161.3 million, up 3.5% as reported and 4.5% like for like⁽¹⁾ compared with the same period in 2024.

Marketing, health insurance, HR, and cloud businesses delivered the most solid growth over the first quarter. The deconsolidation of INPS on December 10, 2024, following its voluntary placement in administration, weighed on reported growth at the Software & Services division and Group level.

Analysis of business trends by division 

• Software & Services

Software & Services	First quarter		Change Q1 2025 / 2024
in millions of euros	2025	2024	Reported	Like for like(1)
Cegedim Santé	18.9	18.1	+4.7%	(4.7)%
Insurance, HR, Pharmacies, and other services	44.1	42.7	+3.4%	+3.4%
International businesses	9.4	13.6	(31.1)%	(6.9)%
Software & Services	72.4	74.4	(2.6)%	(0.4%

Revenues at Cegedim Santé grew 4.7% as reported in the first quarter but fell 4.7% like for like. Reported growth got a boost from the consolidation over the full quarter of Visiodent, which was first consolidated on March 1, 2024. The Maiia suite of products and the Claude Bernard database are both doing well, but their momentum was obscured by the expiration of a contract to supply data. That contract is being renegotiated, but it did not generate any revenues in the first quarter.

Other French subsidiaries saw revenue growth of 3.4% both as reported and like for like. The division was propelled by growth at the insurance businesses, thanks to robust project-based sales and the start of the run phase of projects started in 2024. The HR business is still getting a boost from its client diversification strategy and strong growth in its core market. On the other hand, because it is between waves of Ségur public health investments, sales of products and services for pharmacies in France are experiencing a lacklustre business environment.

International businesses posted reported revenues down 31.1% owing to the deconsolidation of INPS from December 10, 2024, following its voluntary placement in administration. Like-for-like revenues declined 6.9% due to an unfavorable comparison in sales to pharmacies in the UK—which got a boost from the Pharmacy First program in Q1 2024—and because a client of Activus, a UK subsidiary selling software for health insurance and personal protection insurance for expats, went out of business at the end of 2024. Both businesses have clear prospects that will reverse the downward trend in the months ahead. Other international activities had a positive quarter and remain on track.

• Flow

Flow	First quarter		Change Q1 2025 / 2024
in millions of euros	2025	2024	Reported	Like for like(2)
e-business	16.9	15.4	+9.0%	+8.8%
Third-party payer	10.7	9.9	+8.7%	+8.7%
Flow	27.6	25.3	+8.9%	+8.8%

First-quarter growth in e-business, e-invoicing, and digitized data exchanges was 9.0% as reported and 8.8% like for like, and both business segments contributed to the gains. E-Invoicing & Procurement continues to expand in France and abroad, whereas the Healthcare Flow segment is still getting a boost from dynamic new offerings for hospitals that are designed to make their drug purchasing secure.

The Third-party payer business experienced 8.7% growth in Q1. It was boosted by strong growth in demand for its fraud and long-term illness detection offerings, a trend that began in H2 2024.

• Data & Marketing

Data & Marketing	First quarter		Change Q1 2025 / 2024
in millions of euros	2025	2024	Reported	Like for like(1)
Data	13.8	13.0	+5.9%	+5.9%
Marketing	16.1	14.0	+14.9%	+14.9%
Data & Marketing	29.9	27.0	+10.6%	+10.6%

Data businesses were up 5.9% in the first quarter on the back of a strong showing in France, where sales are stronger than they are abroad.

The Marketing segment posted robust growth of 14.9% owing to strong sales after new client wins and brisk business with existing clients.

• BPO

BPO	First quarter		Change Q1 2025 / 2024
in millions of euros	2025	2024	Reported	Like for like(1)
Insurance BPO	15.2	14.5	+4.7%	+4.7%
Business Services BPO	5.9	5.7	+3.4%	+3.4%
BPO	21.1	20.2	+4.3%	+4.3%

The Insurance BPO business grew by 4.7% over the quarter, chiefly owing to its overflow business, which has been flourishing lately because it serves a critical need for clients.

Business Services BPO (HR and digitalization) reported growth of 3.4% in the first quarter on the back of a popular compliance
offering.

• Cloud & Support

Cloud & Support	First quarter		Change Q1 2025 / 2024
in millions of euros	2025	2024	Reported	Like for like(1)
Cloud & Support	10.3	9.0	+14.8%	+14.8%

The Cloud & Support division continued to build on the momentum it generated in 2024, with growth of 14.8% in Q1 reflecting an expanded range of sovereign cloud-backed products and services.
