Financial expenses totaled euro 80 million in 2025, compared to euro 129 million the previous year. This change is mostly related to the decrease in the interest expenses related to the Groupe’s cash pool and intra-group loans.
As a result, the financial result is set at euro 1,029 million in 2025, down euro 850 million, compared to euro 1,879 million last year.
Pre-tax profit was a positive euro 1,034 million for 2025, compared to a euro 1,883 million profit in 2024.
There is no exceptional result in 2025. It amounted to euro 4 million in 2024.
After inclusion of a euro 12 million income tax credit (vs. euro 9 million in 2024), resulting from the French tax consolidation, the net income of Publicis Groupe SA, the Groupe’s parent company, was a euro 1,046 million profit as of December 31, 2025, compared with a euro 1,895 million profit as of December 31, 2024.
