Bio-UV Group Reports a 9% Drop in Revenue in 2025
Bio-UV Group recorded a consolidated revenue of 35.9 million euros in 2025, a decrease of 9% compared to the previous year, according to the statement released on Wednesday. The group aims to return to growth in 2026 with a revenue target ranging between 38 and 42 million euros.
Uneven Performance Across Divisions
The fiscal year 2025 was marked by uneven performances across the group's three divisions. The Service Provision and After-Sales Market division grew by 17% to reach 13.3 million euros, benefiting from the expansion of the installed equipment base. The Products division, which includes sales of water disinfection equipment for recreational use, limited its decline to 3% at 11.8 million euros, hampered by a significant downturn in the pool market in 2025. Lastly, the Solutions division saw a decline of 33% to 10.8 million euros, affected by the end of the maritime retrofit market since September 2024 and the delay of projects in aquaculture due to particularly long sales cycles.
Expectations of Improved Gross Margin Despite Revenue Decline
Despite the decline in revenue, the group expects an improvement in its gross margin rate for the fiscal year 2025. This improvement would be driven by the significant increase in service provision and after-sales market, activities described as sources of more recurring and higher-margin revenues. The Products division continues to gain market share in France, particularly thanks to salt electrolysis technology and the new Akeron range developed by its subsidiary Corelec. Early signs of recovery for 2026 are visible according to the Federation of Pool and Spa Professionals, with a 7.5% increase in quotes established in just the third quarter of 2025.
2026 Revenue Targets Supported by Strategic Developments
For 2026, Bio-UV Group aims for a revenue between 38 and 42 million euros, supported by the continued development of service provisions, a return to normal activity levels in the pool market, and a rebound in the Solutions division. In December 2025, the group signed a major contract with a global fish production player for the supply of water treatment and disinfection solutions. This contract, which will be deployed in 2026, is presented as a strategic step for deployment in the aquaculture market. Furthermore, the company confirms its ambition to continue its financial de-leveraging and to reconnect with a policy of external growth to develop new services or conquer new territories.
