Netherlands-based holding company Ingka Group, the owner of most IKEA stores, has reported total revenue of €42bn ($43.6bn) for fiscal 2022 (FY22).
The figure represents a 5.7% increase from €39.78bn in fiscal 2021 (FY21).
In the 12 months to 31 August, Ingka Group’s gross profit increased to €13.96bn from €12.87bn a year earlier, while its operating income for the year was €2.03bn.
The group posted income before minority interests and taxes of €833m in FY22, compared with €2.23bn in FY21.
Its net income fell to €300m due to the impact of interest rates on financial market investments and the geopolitical conflict in Russia and Ukraine.
Ingka Group closed the year with 52 new IKEA store locations. It also opened Ingka Centres Meeting Places in Toronto, Canada, and London, UK, during the year.
