Emova Group: Stable Business Volume at €133M, Fourth Quarter Down 1.2%
Emova Group published on November 12, 2026 a network sales volume of €133.0M for the 2025-2026 fiscal year ended September 30, up 0.3%. Its fourth quarter, however, fell 1.2% to €26.1M.
This non-IFRS, unaudited indicator aggregates sales of franchised stores and branches, as well as those of the École Florale, the Purchasing Center and e-commerce. Its annual growth was achieved with a smaller network: 284 stores as of September 30, 2026, compared with 291 a year earlier.
The group attributes the summer decline to two factors. The first is a high comparison base, as the fourth quarter of 2024-2025 had grown 5.9%. The second is the episodes of intense heat, which weighed on store traffic.
French Franchises Grow with Nine Fewer Stores
French franchises, representing €104.4M, grew 0.4% over the fiscal year, while the network has 9 fewer franchises than a year earlier (217 versus 226). The group sees in this “good performance of activity per point of sale.”
Chairwoman of the Management Board Saloua Maslaga cites an increase in average basket in the franchise network and higher offering in bouquets and flowers. She also mentions the arrival of Deliveroo alongside Uber Eats as a new sales channel. Active loyalty cardholders of Monceau Fleurs also grew by 10%.
Network restructuring accompanies this trend. Monceau Fleurs has 233 points of sale, 4 more over one year, and represents, according to the executive, 85% of the French franchise network. Cœur de Fleurs, engaged in a rationalization and banner-change trajectory, loses 9 stores, down to 20.
Au Nom de la Rose loses 4 stores, down to 17, while Happy Fleurs gains 2, up to 14. The network recorded a total of 17 opening or takeover operations over the fiscal year.
Branches Decline 4.9% Over the Fiscal Year
Branches amount to €17.0M, down 4.9%. The group cites their closure on May 1, the spring heatwaves in Île-de-France and the full-year effect of the network rationalization carried out in the previous fiscal year. The takeover of franchised stores partially offset this decline.
Services provided to the network provided the relay. The Purchasing and Referencing Center reached €4.7M, up 16.3%. Its €0.7M increase alone exceeds that of the total business volume, which amounts to €0.4M.
E-commerce grew 38.7% to €1.0M, supported by the extension of areas covered by same-day delivery. International franchises gained 1.0% to €5.2M, while the École Florale declined 6.0% to €0.7M.
French Franchises Slow in the Fourth Quarter, Branches Stabilize
In the fourth quarter alone, the decline comes from French franchises, down 1.6% to €20.6M. The group mainly attributes this to two heatwaves, from July 4 to 19 and from July 28 to August 19, the second matching the longest ever recorded in France according to Météo-France.
A new episode followed from September 3 to 8, and part of the network was directly penalized by the summer fires. Conversely, branches grew 0.6% over the quarter to €3.2M, after a 4.9% decline over the full fiscal year, and international franchises rose 10.0% to €1.1M.
Emova Group confirmed its strategic ambitions, articulated around six areas, including accelerating territorial development in franchises and branches and strengthening its economic model.
Over the fiscal year, the growth of French franchises with a smaller network and that of the Purchasing Center offset the decline in branches. The 2025-2026 annual results will be published on January 29, 2027 after market close.
