“This new semester of growth in asset management, combined with the return to positive value creation in our balance sheet portfolio, confirms the successful execution of our strategic plan. The profitability of our asset management business continues to improve, with double-digit growth in its EBITDA. At the same time, after several half‑years marked by valuation adjustments, our balance sheet portfolio is once again creating value, driven by the solid operating performance of our investments. This momentum is reflected in a clear improvement in our net income and allows us to continue, as announced, the acceleration of our return to shareholders. The trends observed in this first half-year reinforce our confidence in our long-term growth and value creation trajectory.”
