Following the favorable evolution of the wildfire situation in Gironde region and the gradual lifting of the restrictions announced today by the authorities, Lectra has resumed operations at its Bordeaux-Cestas site, which had been temporarily closed since July 27, 2026. No damage has been identified at the Group’s facilities, and operations are resuming under normal operating conditions.
As part of the preventive evacuation measures decided by the Gironde authorities in response to the ongoing fires in southwestern France, Lectra announces the temporary closure of its Bordeaux-Cestas site.
At Lectra’s Combined Shareholders’ Meeting on April 29, 2026, two new Board members, Christophe Gégout and Fiorangelo Salvatorelli, were appointed for a four-year term.
Their appointments reflect the Group’s ambition to strengthen its governance to support the implementation of its 2026–2028 strategic roadmap. Both join Lectra’s Strategic Committee and AI Committee, recently created, bringing complementary expertise in investment, finance, strategy and new technologies to the Group. Christophe Gégout will also become a member of the Audit Committee.
In an environment marked by persistent geopolitical and trade tensions, Lectra recorded short-term cyclical impacts in the first quarter of 2026 that weighed on equipment revenues, while continuing to strengthen its business model driven by SaaS growth and disciplined cost control.
Lectra announces the appointment of John Brearley as President, Americas, effective October 1, 2025. He becomes a member of the Group's Executive Committee.
