OUR STRATEGIC PRINCIPLES

A High-Performance, Committed Management Organisation

At Sword, we embody a management style based on action and involvement.

Every manager, at every level, plays a dual role of, "doing " and "getting things done ", to boost efficiency and cohesion.

Long-term and Multidimensional Growth

Our balanced and ambitious growth strategy is built around three key areas for the next four years:

1. Double-digit organic growth,

2. Targeted micro-acquisitions,

3. Large-scale strategic acquisitions.

New Strategic Challenges

We have identiﬁed four major strategic areas for development over this period:

- Artiﬁcial Intelligence,

- Cybersecurity,

- Sustainability,

- Internal efficiency.

Governance and Financial Controls

With a view to strengthening governance, optimizing our strategic management and internalizing the CFO function, Sword has appointed a Group CFO, Philippe Blanche, currently CFO for the BeNeLux, Spain, Greece and EU division.

This change has several objectives:
- Strengthen strategic management at Group level,
- Increase responsiveness to economic and ﬁnancial challenges,
- Align the interests of all stakeholders,
- Optimise our mergers and acquisitions (M&A) strategy to ensure controlled, consistent growth.

Sword is committed to an ambitious and sustainable vision for 2028.
We have the teams and the strategy to succeed in this ambitious plan, while strengthening our position in the global market.
Together, we will transform challenges into opportunities and consolidate our future on solid, sustainable foundations.
