Rexel reported a 3.1% drop in Q3 sales, amounting to 4.7 billion euros ($4.97 billion). However, on a same-day basis, the company saw a sales increase of 2.6%, demonstrating some resilience amidst challenging market conditions.

The performance of non-wire products, a crucial factor for Rexel’s performance, was underwhelming with only a 1.3% rise in prices. This failed to meet Citi’s anticipated increase of between 2-3%, adding to market skepticism about the company’s performance.

Despite these setbacks and contrary to market expectations, Rexel maintained its full-year guidance. This move signals the company’s confidence in its business strategy and its ability to navigate through the current market headwinds.
