Outlook
The Group remains confident in its fundamentals and is pursuing its reorganisation project and its programme of selling non-strategic assets. As part of the program, it finalised the sale of the VM Piégut (Dordogne) sales location on 30 September.
With the market outlook still uncertain, the Group is maintaining a disciplined management approach, strengthening its internal processes and developing its organisation and sales approach to win back market share in all its businesses.
