Business model's flexibility softens the impact of the global pandemic on 1H results.
After a strong start to the year (January and February: + 15,3% YoY), 1H aggregated sales amounted to € 367,6m, with sales of licensees at € 259,6m and sales of sourcing centers of € 108,0m.
Consolidated sales amounted to € 109,1m: royalties income from ASL stood at € 19,5m, royalties income from ASSC at € 7,3m and direct sales at € 86,7m. Direct sales included a remarkable growth of the online channel (+87%). After reopening in mid May, sales from Plug@Sell shops performed better than expected, despite still lower YoY.
EBITDA was slightly positive, after including communication investments exceeding € 20m, with a slight increase YoY (expected to support 2H and future sales).
Net Financial Position stood at € 81,6m (€ 78,3m at YE 2019) after € 10,5m cash out to finalize the 2019 acquisition of BasicVillage Milano and € 2,9m CAPEX, through a careful management of trade working capital.

On January 30, 2020, BasicVillage S.p.A. completed the 2019 acquisition of 100% of Aprica Costruzioni S.r.l., that owns an industrial building of approximately 4.000 square meters in Milan, for an overall value of € 10,5 million.
Through this investment, BasicNet Group will gain a stable presence in Milan, acquiring suitable offices, showrooms and commercial spaces to present BasicNet's range, replicating the successful BasicVillage of Turin in a globally strategic location.
Following the acquisition of the BasicVillage in Milan, BasicNet Group has started the reorganization of its real estate activities within BasicVillage S.p.A. for efficiency purposes.
Under this plan, BasicVillage has incorporated Aprica Costruzioni and the real estate property of BasicItalia.
BasicNet has launched a corporate reorganization, with the goal of concentrating the ownership of its brands in BasicTrademark, which, as of today, directly owns the brands Kappa®, Robe di Kappa®, Superga®, Briko® and Jesus® Jeans, and -indirectly through Fashion S.r.l.- Sabelt®.
