Net income more than doubled to EUR 96m, while adjusted EBITDA rose 5% to EUR 691m.

Transdev Group reports a 4% increase in annual revenue to EUR 10.44bn for 2025, driven by rail market liberalisation in France and contract renewals in North America and Germany.

The fiscal year was marked by a shift in governance: on July 1, 2025, the Rethmann Group increased its stake to 66%, becoming the majority shareholder alongside Caisse des Dépôts (34%). This capital stabilisation followed a successful EUR 800m bond issuance in May 2025 used to refinance existing debt across three- and seven-year tranches.
