Vinpai Announces Revenue of €2.3 Million for the First Quarter 2025

SAINT-DOLAY, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:

Vinpai (ISIN: FR001400AXT1; ticker: ALVIN), a specialist in the design, manufacture and marketing of algae- and plant-based functional ingredients for the food and cosmetics industries, today announces its revenue for the first quarter of 2025.

Philippe Le Ray, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder, states: “After a challenging environment in 2024, the beginning of 2025 is marked by strong demand, as reflected by our robust backlog, now approaching €6 million. This first quarter appears to confirm an upward trend, with a rebound in North America, sustained demand in North Africa, and positive momentum in Asia-Pacific. Our industrial facility is now fully optimized to support a monthly revenue of over €1 million. We continue to leverage our innovation portfolio by integrating technologies we consider to be strategic across each of our areas of activity."

First Quarter 2025 Activity

Revenue for the first quarter of 2025 amounted to €2,322k, representing a 9% decrease compared to the same period in 2024. Business momentum remains steady with the modest recovery observed in the final quarter of 2024 and despite an uncertain global context impacting two key markets for the Company: on the one hand Algeria, where the diplomatic crisis with France has raised concerns over the flow of goods and financial transactions between the two countries, and on the other hand Mexico, where new tariffs are affecting the export of end products by the Company’s clients to the United States. The decline of the revenue compared to Q1 2024, driven by these international factors, is not deemed material.

Commercial momentum has remained strong, with the backlog increasing to over €5.4 million as of March 31, 2025, compared to €5 million a year earlier and €3.8 million as of December 31, 2024.

Next financial announcement: 2025 first half revenue, on July 25, 2025, after markets close
