With a particularly dynamic month of September for the textile market, Damart closed the first quarter with growth of +0.7% (+0.2% at like for like exchange rates). Over the period, the Xandres brand confirmed a solid performance with sales up +7.8% at real and like for like exchange rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Home &amp; Lifestyle<\/strong> division&#8217;s sales amounted to \u20ac19.3 Mn in<br>the first quarter, down -3.4% at actual exchange rates (-4.1% at like for like exchange rates). 3Pagen has been operating for several months in a market particularly impacted by the contraction of the German economy, and posted a decline in activity of -9.8% at real exchange rates. While Vitrine Magique ended the quarter slightly down -1.6% at real exchange rates, Coopers of Stortford reversed the trend of previous quarters with sales up +3.0% at real exchange rates (+1.3% at like for like exchange rates).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the <strong>Healthcare<\/strong> division recorded sales of \u20ac8.1 Mn in the quarter, up +0.3% at real and like for like exchange rates. The plan to stop the catalogue sales activity of home care accessories of the Almadia brand has been confirmed and will be effective at the end of the current half-year. This will enable the brand to concentrate its efforts on the pharmacy and service point channels. Restated for this activity, the division&#8217;s sales growth was driven by all brands. Sant\u00e9ol and MSant\u00e9 continued to perform well with sales growth of +10.4% and +4.4% respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prospects<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Group&#8217;s business momentum during the quarter, the result of meticulous and rigorous management work, confirms the relevance of the operational and structural choices made as part of its <strong><em>Dare.
