Fluidra Joins IBEX 35

Fluidra, a global leader in pool and wellness equipment, has been selected to be part of the prestigious IBEX 35 index, produced by BME. Fluidra is expected to become part of the index as of March 29.

The Technical Advisory Committee’s decision to include Fluidra is based on the entry capitalization criteria which states that entering members’ last six months average capitalization must be greater than 0.3% of the index. However, the most important factor for eligibility is liquidity, since the objective is to choose sizeable companies with the highest trading volume.

Fluidra currently has a market capitalization of more than 4.5 billion, which exceeds the size of eleven current constituents of the IBEX 35.

The company presented the best results in its history in 2020, with a cash net profit of 166 million euros and sales of 1,488 million euros. After a record 2020 in sales and profit, the first indicators point to a very positive 2021, with expected sales increase between 12% and 15%, driven by strong underlying growth on top of the recently announced CMP acquisition.

Eloi Planes, Executive Chairman of Fluidra states, “Entering the IBEX 35 increases the visibility of the company and its presence in passively managed and indexed funds. Accessing the IBEX 35 was not an objective in itself, but is a reflection of the work carried out during these past years by our great team with our customers and all stakeholders involved. Together we have achieved this milestone, and together we will continue working hard to deliver our mission, “a perfect pool and wellness experience” ”.

Technical Advisory Committee has selected the company to become part of the main index of the Spanish Stock Exchange, the IBEX 35.
This decision comes after a strong performance track record and very encouraging future prospects.
Fluidra’s market capitalization currently exceeds 4.5 billion, above the size of eleven other constituents of the IBEX 35.

Marquis Celebrates 25 Years of Make-A-Wish Partnership

LAS VEGAS, NV — December 3, 2025 — Marquis® Spas, a leader in luxury hot tubs and swim spas, is proud to celebrate the 25th anniversary of its partnership with Make-A-Wish®, a milestone that has transformed the lives of more than 1,250 children through the gift of hydrotherapy. Providing ongoing relief for symptoms attributable to many childhood illnesses and conditions.

The journey began in 2000, when Marquis granted its first wish for Andrea, a 15-year-old leukemia survivor. Today, Andrea is cancer-free and raising a family of her own. Her story illustrates the ongoing power of a hot tub to provide more than relaxation. It inspires healing, resilience, and family joy.

“For 25 years, our dealers have been at the heart of this program,” said Melinda Herber, Customer Experience Manager at Marquis, who manages program logistics. “Every wish is more than a hot tub delivery—it’s a beacon of renewed hope. This is about showing up for families when it matters most, and it’s part of what makes the Marquis retail network so special.”

While not the only hot tub manufacturer to partner with Make-A-Wish, the Marquis program stands out as a model for sustained commitment. Marquis dealers often develop long-term connections with wish families and fellow volunteers, while also benefiting from positive recognition and shared pride in making wishes come true.

As Marquis reflects on this 25-year legacy, the company continues to prioritize loyal partnerships, especially with retailers who share its values. “Joining the Marquis network means more than selling premium spas,” said Todd Shannon, Chief Revenue Officer. “It means being part of a brand that delivers lasting enjoyment, builds community trust, and demonstrates leadership through action.”

Josh Cowley, CEO of parent company May Manufacturing, is equally committed. “We believe that every wish granted reflects the heart of our company and our dealer network,” said Cowley. “We’re excited to continue this legacy and invite retailers who share our values to join Marquis in making an even broader impact in the years ahead.”
