Q3 2021: Very strong business growth in France and around the world
In Q3 2021, the consolidated revenue of Freelance.com stood at EUR112.3m, representing organic growth of 32% vs Q3 2020, compared with overall growth of 60% (15% organic growth) in the first half of the year. Cumulatively, as at 30 September 2021, Freelance.com had achieved consolidated revenue of EUR324.3m, up 49% (15% organic growth).
This positive movement in Q3 2021 was seen across all of the group's activities in France and internationally and, for the first time, includes the full contribution of revenues achieved by Inop's, the company acquired at the end of June 2020. The strong performance achieved by Inop's in France confirms the quality of the merger and the relevance of the transaction.
In France, Freelance.com achieved total cumulative revenue of EUR280.8m over the first nine months of the year, up 57% compared with the same period in 2020 (EUR178.6m), representing 87% of the group's consolidated total. Growth was up 34% in the third quarter alone, with a total of EUR97.4m.
Internationally, total overall activity in the first nine months of the year was up 11% to EUR43.5m (13% of total revenue). The acceleration in the third quarter was more marked than at the start of the year, with an increase of 24% to EUR14.8m.
Change in pro forma revenue outlook for 2021
The level of activity to date reflects the Group's excellent operational performance and the successful integration of the various acquisitions carried out. It validates Freelance.com's strategy of offering its clients ever more complementarity and value-added services.
In this dynamic context, including the recent acquisition of Helvetic Payroll, the Group is raising its 2021 pro forma revenue outlook, which is now likely to exceed its previous estimate of EUR620m-EUR640m.
As a result of the transformation in the relationship with work, the search for greater autonomy and the need for expertise, the Group confirms its ambition to achieve a business volume of EUR1bn in the medium term.
