(BFM Stock Exchange) – The specialist in online sales of used cars notes a significant slowdown in its market due to the economic context. The group warns that its growth will be less strong than expected in the second half, and revises some of its annual objectives. The title falls on the stock market.

The results season will start around mid-July on the Paris Stock Exchange. But before, there is that of the warnings on results. Last week, the ADP airport group and the automaker Renault both warned that their profits from the first half would be sealed by exceptional elements.

Aramis in turn launched a warning at the market this Tuesday, July 8. This puts a pressure on the company which is subject to significant volatility on the stock market at each of its announcements.

The specialist in online sales of used cars thus drops 14%, around 12 noon after having warned to expect less strong growth than expected in the second half of his year ended in 2025.

Aramis Group says it is faced with a slow motion market environment for the used vehicle. The company adds that it has made strategic choices aimed at favoring unit profitability in certain countries in order to “continue the operational alignment of its entities on the group’s standards”. So many parameters that push Aramis Group to be less ambitious for its exercise 2024-2025 enclosed in September.

Annual objectives lowered

In detail, Aramis Group now targets organic growth in volumes of reconditioned vehicles, and volumes of total vehicles sold to individuals “Mid Single Digit”, that is to say an increase of 5%.

The company adjusts its objective of profitability more on the margins. It expects a gross operating profit (EBITDA) close to 65 million euros at the end of its offbeat financial year 2024-2025.

As a reminder, Aramis Group previously tapped on organic growth in “two-digit” vehicle volumes and organic growth in total vehicle volumes sold to individuals “high Digit”, that is to say increase between 7% and 9%. The company also provided that its EBITDA would exceed 65 million euros.

These objectives had been confirmed at the end of May, on the sidelines of the publication of the results of the first half. Aramis Group had recorded a clear improvement in its half-yearly accounts, which had allowed to reconnect with the profits by revealing a net profit of 6.4 million euros at the end of March 2025, after a net loss of 13.3 million euros in the first half of 2023-2024.
