The market environment was significantly more challenging for home24 in the first quarter of financial year 2022 compared to a year before. This was caused in part by the discontinuation of the positive demand effects created by the temporary closure of offline retail in the previous year, and partly by the considerable deterioration in consumer demand triggered by rising inflation fears and the war in Ukraine. As a result, revenue fell by –12% (–14% at constant currency) y-o-y to EUR 140.2m. Nevertheless, this still represents growth of around +37% (+42% at constant currency) over two years compared to the first quarter of 2020.

Gross order value declined far more sharply, falling by –24% (–25% at constant currency). The positive trend in revenue compared with gross order value is attributable to the considerable acceleration in deliveries to end customers as a result of higher inventory levels compared to the previous year. The reduced gross order value was primarily driven by the lower number of active customers and orders placed, while the average order value increased. As of March 31, 2022, home24 had a total of 2.1m active customers, compared to 2.4m as of March 31, 2021. The number of orders placed during the first three months of 2022 decreased by –28% to 0.7m compared to the prior-year period. The average order value expanded by 6% to EUR 281 over the same period.

Revenue less cost of sales results in gross profit. In the first three months of 2022, the Group posted a gross profit of EUR 60.2m, down –17% from EUR 72.4m in the same period of 2021. The gross profit margin declined by two percentage points to 43% compared to March 31, 2021. This fall was mainly attributable to increased purchased prices and higher container import costs compared to the previous year. During the first quarter of 2022, the gross profit margin was also adversely impacted by a rise in write-downs on inventories, which in turn was driven by higher levels of inventory coverage and safety stock due to continuing uncertainty surrounding global supply chains and consumer demand. Despite these effects, the gross profit margin trend has been positive over the last few quarters, with this figure improving for the second successive quarter to slightly exceed the level recorded in the second quarter of 2021.

In the first three months of 2022, selling and distribution costs amounted to EUR 60.4m, down 10% compared to the prior-year period. The fulfillment expenses ratio remained unchanged at 16%, while the marketing expenses ratio improved by two percentage points y-o-y to 17% as a result of faster revenue recognition. The increase in other selling and distribution costs was mainly attributable to the additional depreciation of right-of-use assets and property and equipment in the LatAm segment.

Administrative expenses rose by 7% y-o-y to EUR 14.1m. The main drivers here were investments in additional employees, particularly in the IT and Commercial units, aimed at further strengthening home24's business model with regard to its product range, data analytics and shopping experience.

In the first three months of 2022, the adjusted EBITDA margin contracted by –4 percentage points y-o-y to –4%. The adjusted EBITDA decreased accordingly from EUR 0.6m to EUR –6.1m. As is usual for the Group, the first quarter generally is an investment quarter with lower profitability than the full year due to seasonally higher marketing costs. EBITDA was adjusted for share-based payment expenses as well as expenses arising within the scope of the acquisition of the Butlers Group.

In the first three months of 2022, revenue in the Europe segment amounted to EUR 113.5m, down –15% y-o-y, representing 81% of Group revenue. In the first three months of 2022, revenue in the LatAm segment came to EUR 26.7m, up +3% y-o-y, thus contributing 19% to Group revenue. Adjusted for foreign currency effects, revenue in the LatAm segment fell by –8% y-o-y. Both in Europe and in the LatAm segment, the decline in gross order value is linked to a decrease in the number of orders (–32% and –20%, respectively) and a lower number of active customers (–6% and –19%, respectively), while the average order value increased in both segments (+7% and +24%, respectively).

The Europe segment generated negative adjusted EBITDA of EUR –5.0m after EUR 0.5m in the prior-year period. The adjusted EBITDA margin came in at –4% compared to 0% in the previous year. The LatAm segment also posted negative adjusted EBITDA at EUR –1.1m after EUR 0.1m in the prior-year period. The adjusted EBITDA margin came in at –4% compared to 0% in the previous year.

The Group generated a negative cash flow from operating activities of EUR –23.8m in the first three months of 2022 (previous year: EUR –9.7m). The negative operativing cash flow was driven by the change in net working capital in particular. In addition to the usual seasonal effects associated with the transition from high to low season, factors affecting net working capital during the first quarter of the financial year included essentially the fall in trade payables as well as in the Europe segment the impact of higher levels of safety stock on inventories aimed at increasing home24's resilience in the face of supply chain uncertainty and inflationary trends.

Number of active customers

Cash outflows from investing activities largely related to investments in internally generated software as well as property and equipment. The Group also granted a loan of EUR 2.7m to Butlers GmbH & Co. KG in order to be able to have sufficient liquidity for higher inventories even before the takeover was finalized.

The cash flow from financing activities primarily resulted from principal payments on lease liabilities (EUR –3.3m).

Currency effects had a positive impact on cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period due to the strong appreciation of the Brazilian real in the first three months of the year. In total, the Group's cash and cash equivalents decreased by EUR 29.8m in the first three months of 2022 and totaled EUR 101.3m as of the reporting date.

Of the EUR 101.3m in cash and cash equivalents reported in the Group as of March 31, 2022, EUR 62.5m relates to the Europe segment and EUR 38.8m to the LatAm segment.

Compared with December 31, 2021, total assets and total equity and liabilities changed mainly as a result of the sharp rise in the Brazilian real in relation to the reporting currency of euros.

The increase in non-current assets was attributable to factors such as investments in property and equipment as well as intangible assets.

Current assets declined due in particular to the reduction in cash and cash equivalents. This contrasts with a further rise in inventories attributable to the Europe segment in particular. Changes in cash and cash equivalents are discussed in the "Cash Flows" section.

Equity increased by EUR 4.8m due in particular to currency translation effects relating to the Brazilian subsidiaries that impacted both the currency translation reserve and non-controlling interests in equity. By contrast, the net loss for the year reduced equity.

Non-current liabilities rose amongst others as a result of higher provisions.

Current liabilities fell primarily due to trade payables and similar payables, which decreased within the scope of ongoing business activities.

Overall, total assets decreased marginally by EUR 1.2m from EUR 390.2m to EUR 389.0m.

Overall Assessment

The Group performed well during the first quarter of financial year 2022 amid a challenging market environment. Given the uncertainty surrounding the development of consumer sentiment, we will primarily focus not only on integrating the Butlers Group and launching a marketplace in the Europe segment but also on enhancing our core profitability.
