2020 outlook

On February 26, 2020, Edenred published its 2019 annual results and stated its outlook for full-year 2020. This outlook has been updated due to the uncertainties linked to the Covid-19 epidemic.

This epidemic will have an impact on the Group’s business, the extent of which is not possible to estimate as at the date this Universal Registration Document was filed. The impact will depend, among other things, on the duration of the epidemic, the containment measures implemented by the various countries in which Edenred operates, and the use of short-time working by some of the Group’s clients.

Due to these uncertainties, the Group has suspended its targets for full-year 2020 until it has better visibility of the financial impacts of the epidemic.
 
The Group is taking appropriate measures to reduce the consequences of the epidemic on its business and earnings.
