Louis Hachette Group S.A. is a French listed company created following the partial demerger of Vivendi SE and listed on Euronext Growth Paris on 16 December 2024. The group brings together high-quality assets in publishing, travel retail and media, operating as a listed holding company designed to give greater strategic autonomy to complementary businesses with strong brands and global reach. In 2024, Louis Hachette Group reported revenue of €9.235 billion, EBITA of €510 million and free cash flow of €421 million, demonstrating the resilience of its model from its first full financial reporting cycle.
The group’s roots are anchored in a long industrial and editorial history. Its annual report states that Lagardère traces back to the combination of Hachette, founded in 1826, and Matra, founded in 1945, while the holding-company structure dates to 1992. Louis Hachette Group itself was formed after the separation of Vivendi’s media and content businesses, with the stated objective of providing greater strategic agility and value-creation capacity for shareholders and stakeholders.
Louis Hachette Group is structured around three main business areas. Lagardère Publishing covers books in print, digital and audio formats, partworks, board games and premium stationery. Lagardère Travel Retail focuses on travel-related retail through Travel Essentials, Duty Free & Fashion and Dining concepts. Other activities include Lagardère News, Lagardère Radio, Lagardère Live Entertainment and Lagardère Paris Racing. In addition, Prisma Media is France’s leading magazine publisher and digital media player. The group therefore combines content creation, branded retail and media distribution in a diversified portfolio with international scale, supported by more than 34,000 employees across over 45 countries.
From a market-positioning perspective, Louis Hachette Group holds leading positions in several specialized segments, particularly in global publishing and travel retail. Its geographic footprint is broad, with a strong base in France, a significant presence across Europe and North America, and exposure to major airport and travel hubs worldwide. The company emphasizes a capital-allocation strategy built around disciplined investment, gradual deleveraging and regular shareholder returns. Notable facts include the launch of a liquidity agreement in early 2025 and the availability of an undrawn €75 million bank credit facility, both of which improve financial flexibility. Overall, Louis Hachette Group combines iconic heritage assets with a modern listed structure aimed at sustained international growth.
