Fountaine Pajot has reported group net income of €29.9 million for its 2024-25 fiscal year (ending late August), down from €33.5 million previously, along with a 15% drop in EBITDA to €51 million, impacted by lower volumes.
The revenue of the pleasure boat manufacturer fell by 8.2% to €323.2 million, mainly reflecting a contraction in volumes sold in a market undergoing adjustment and amid an economic context of slowing demand.
"These results demonstrate the Group's ability to maintain a high level of profitability and protect its margins in a less buoyant market environment," the company stated, emphasizing "the robustness of its business model and its adaptability."
In a market environment with limited visibility, Fountaine Pajot anticipates the 2025-26 fiscal year will be "a transitional year" during which the company has chosen to anticipate and invest in order to be best positioned for the market recovery phase.
Fountaine Pajot is one of the first worldwide builders of cruise catamarans. The group's activity is organized into two sectors:
- sale of catamarans: sailing catamarans (Lucia 40, Helia 44, Saba 50, Ipanema 58 and Victoria 67 brands), and motorized catamarans (MY 37, Cumberland MY 47 LC and Queensland MY 55);
- services: primarily after sales services.
At the end of August 2025, the group had 2 production sites located in France.
