The French sporting goods retailer Decathlon Group published its annual results on Thursday. It announced a sales increase of four percent compared to the 2024 financial year. In addition, gross merchandise volume (GMV) grew by 7.1 percent at constant exchange rates. These figures are accompanied by strong operational profitability, with earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of 1.8 billion euros.
The sports chain is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The associated group achieved sales of 16.8 billion euros in 2025. This figure demonstrates the company’s resilience after a weak 2024 and a 15.5 percent decline in net profit.
In 2025, the French group’s EBITDA increased by 21 percent to 1.8 billion euros. Net profit showed growth of 16 percent to 910 million euros.
Decathlon explains these achievements with “the strength of Decathlon’s integrated model, combining design, production and distribution, and its ability to offer customers worldwide products with the best value for money.”
Today, French retailer Decathlon continues its retail expansion. The group plans to open ten new points of sale in Spain in the first half of 2026.
