During the course of the first six months of 2023, we have experienced a soft retail market, and we anticipate that the market will remain challenging for the remainder of 2023. In general, consumers are more cautious with their spending, while in recent months this impact has been most visible in Sweden.
That being said, we continue to actively counter these externally driven challenges. We have finalised favourable terms with several key suppliers, which will continue showing effects in the coming quarters. In parallel, we have optimised our inventory position to ensure a healthy and competitive product range as well as good availability.
We have also launched our new marketing campaign for the Komplett brand in Norway; a collection of advertisements across TV, billboards, and newspapers. This marketing campaign has increased the awareness of our high service levels and seamless deliveries, and assisted us in improving our market position. We are also working on plans to launch a new marketing concept for the NetOnNet brand in Norway and Sweden in the second half of this year.
In the quarter, we have continued to realise synergies across the group as we continue to use our benefits of scale as a leading Nordic player. We have come a long way in extracting supplier synergies and are on track to realise the full potential of the combination with NetOnNet.
Moving forward, part of our focus will be on prioritising plans to ensure successful roll-out of campaigns ahead of peak seasons, such as Back-to-School and Black Week. In parallel, we are mindful about maintaining close control of our cost base.
Last quarter, we also highlighted the potential of our private label products, which offer our customers a broader product assortment in selected categories. As an example, our private label TV range is very successful in Sweden and gaining share with a healthy margin. Private label continues to grow, and we see more potential in this segment, especially in Norway.
As of the 1st of May, our new top management team (KL) in Komplett Group is up and running, and from 1 June the Komplett Services management team in Sandefjord has been appointed and they are off to a good start. There is no question that we now have a solid team to steer the group in the right direction.
Although Komplett Group is facing a tough market in 2023, the group is well positioned for the medium to long term on several dimensions, which are not easy to replicate in the short term for competitors:

As we continue our journey into the next quarters and years, we will keep a close eye to these competitive advantages and utilise them commercially in all aspects to both deliver excellent customer experience and to drive profitable growth for our shareholders.
Yours sincerely
Jaan Ivar Semlitsch President & CEO

The overall market development from the first quarter continued into the second quarter, with a soft demand in retail and low consumer sentiment being observed in all key markets.
Despite market challenges, the group's operations in Norway made good progress, both in terms of revenue growth and improved profitability, supported by selective investments in both marketing and stock availability. Total revenue for the group amounted to NOK 3 634 million, compared with NOK 3 570 million in the same period in 2022. The industry continued to benefit from an improved pricing environment against last year, which supported Komplett Group in sustaining its positive trend in gross margins.
Operational efficiencies, cost savings and good cost control reduced the negative effects from continued high cost inflation and contributed to an adjusted EBIT result for the group of NOK 0 million, compared with a negative NOK 10 million in the prior-year period.
At the end of the first half-year, the company's inventory position is healthy, ensuring a good product availability while contributing to lower working capital.
NetOnNet was consolidated into Komplett's financial statements as of 1 April 2022 and has been reported as a part of the B2C segment as of Q2 2022. A specification of the financial impact from NetOnNet in Q1 2023 is provided in Appendix 1 to this report.

Total operating revenue increased by 1.8 per cent in the second quarter of 2023, from NOK 3 570 million to NOK 3 634 million. Sales were supported by increased marketing investments and an improved inventory position, with particularly favourable effect in Norway. The increase from last year was however to a large extent driven by price increases and positive currency translation effects, which more than offset a net sales volume decline in a soft and challenging market overall.
7 253 million, compared with NOK 6 177 million in the same period in 2022. NetOnNet is consolidated for the entire half-year period this year, while comparable figures from 2022 only include NetOnNet as from the second quarter.
Cost of goods sold was NOK 3 122 million in the second quarter, compared with NOK 3 129 million in the same period last year. The synergy program is well underway and, combined with strong supplier relations, contributes to mitigate many of the negative effects from higher input costs driven by cost inflation and adverse FX effects compared to last year.
For the half-year period, cost of goods sold was NOK 6 230 million, compared with NOK 5 427 million in the same period in 2022, with NetOnNet included from 1 April 2022.
Gross profit for the second quarter increased from NOK 441 million last year to NOK 512 million in 2023. The gross margin continued to improve and reached 14.1 per cent in the second quarter, corresponding to an increase of 1.7 percentage points from 12.4 per cent in the same period of 2022. Despite market headwinds, the group has maintained improved margins reflecting both the more stable pricing environment as well
For the first six months, revenue totalled NOK

as improved pricing strategies, in combination with sourcing measures. In addition, the industry as well as the group benefited from healthier inventory positions and hence less price pressure compared with the prior-year period.
For the first six months, gross profit amounted to NOK 1 023 million compared with NOK 750 million in the same period in 2022.
Operating expenses, excluding one-off costs, depreciation and amortisation, totalled NOK 426 million in the second quarter, compared with NOK 377 million in the same period of 2022. The increase was partly driven by currency translation effects from SEK to NOK. In addition, operating expenses were subject to the generally high cost inflation and increased marketing investments. Cost levels were also affected by certain project related costs in the quarter, and by some phasing effects from positive cost items booked in the second quarter of 2022.
Looking at the first half-year, operating expenses were NOK 847 million, compared with NOK 617 million in the same period in 2022, with NetOnNet consolidated as from the second quarter.
Depreciation and amortisation accounted for NOK 86 million, of which NOK 13 million were related to the amortisation of acquired customer value. In the same period last year, depreciation and amortisation expenses totalled NOK 75 million.
For the first half-year, depreciation and amortisation totalled NOK 167 million, compared with NOK 106 million in 2022.
Adjusted EBIT amounted to NOK 0 million in the
second quarter of 2023, compared with negative NOK 10 million in the second quarter of 2022. The improvement was driven by expanded gross margins and improved operational efficiencies, but was partly offset by cost inflation as well as timing of certain project related costs. This resulted in an adjusted EBIT margin of 0 per cent in the second quarter, compared with negative 0.3 per cent in the same quarter of last year.
For the first six months, adjusted EBIT was NOK 9 million, compared with NOK 27 million in the same period in 2022.
One-off costs totalled NOK 3 million in the quarter and were related to the refinancing process completed earlier this year.
The operating result (EBIT) for the second quarter amounted to negative NOK 3 million, compared with a loss of NOK 49 million in the same period of 2022.
Looking at the first half-year, the operating result (EBIT) was negative NOK 7 million, compared with a loss of NOK 29 million in the same period in 2022.
Net financial expenses in the second quarter totalled NOK 36 million, compared with NOK 25 million in the same period last year. Even though the group had overall lower debt, the net financial expenses increased from last year due to higher interest rates on existing debt facilities and to factoring expenses.
For the half-year period, net financial expenses were NOK 84 million, compared with NOK 34 million in the same period in 2022. In addition to higher interest costs and expenses related to factoring, the financial expenses in the first quarter also included non-recurring expenses related to the establishment of the new credit facility of approximately NOK 10 million.
Tax income was NOK 11 million in the second quarter, compared with a tax income of NOK 5 million in the same period last year.
Loss for the period came in at NOK 27 million, compared with a loss of NOK 69 million in the second quarter of last year.
Loss for the first half-year was NOK 70 million, compared with NOK 62 million in the same period in 2022.
Non-current assets amounted to NOK 4 665 million at the end of the second quarter of 2023, compared with NOK 4 580 million at 30 June 2022. The increase from the previous year was mainly related to an increase in other intangible assets of NOK 160 million, partly driven by software investments as well as currency translation effects.
Current assets amounted to NOK 3 023 million at the end of the second quarter of this year, compared with NOK 3 366 million in the same period last year. The group's inventory position is considered healthy, and at 30 June 2023, inventories represented NOK 1 897 million, compared with NOK 2 033 million one year earlier.

HIGHLIGHTS KEY FIGURES CEO COMMENTS FINANCIAL REVIEW SEGMENT REVIEW STATEMENT FROM THE BOARD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES APPENDIX
Cash and cash equivalents totalled NOK 341 million at the end of the quarter versus NOK 49 million at the end of June last year.
Equity amounted to NOK 3 595 million at the end of the second quarter of 2023, compared with NOK 2 547 million in the same period last year. The increase in equity was mainly driven by an increased share premium from the issuance of 35 242 424 new shares to SIBA Invest as part of the settlement of the acquisition of NetOnNet, and the issuance of 67 843 582 new shares in connection with the private placement in 2022 and subsequent offering in January 2023. Following the issuance of these shares, the company's share capital is NOK 70 136 464.40, divided into 175 341 161 shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.40.
This yields an equity ratio of 46.8 per cent at the end of the second quarter, compared with 32.1 per cent in the same period of 2022.
Total liabilities amounted to NOK 4 093 million at the end of the second quarter of 2023, compared with NOK 5 398 million in the same period last year. The reduction is related to repayment of debt and refinancing of the group's credit facilities. The Swedish subsidiaries have partly utilised the extension of the Swedish tax deferred payment rules with a total of NOK 433.6 million, which are shown as part of other current liabilities.
Total equity and liabilities amounted to NOK 7 688 million at the end of the second quarter, compared with NOK 7 946 million in the same period last year.
The group's total credit facilities include a revolving credit facility in the amount of NOK 1 300 million, a credit facility of SEK 100 million, and an overdraft facility in the amount of NOK 400 million. The latter is increased to NOK 500 million in the fourth quarter of each year.
At 30 June 2023, NOK 52 million of the credit facility and NOK 998 million of the revolving credit facility were utilised. Including available cash of NOK 341 million, the liquidity reserve was NOK 1 090 million at the end of the second quarter, compared with NOK 685 million one year earlier. The liquidity reserve was positively affected by net working capital levels, and hence both by operational reduction in inventories and the utilisation of the Swedish tax deferment scheme.
Net interest-bearing debt at 30 June was NOK 709 million, excluding IFRS 16, and NOK 1 269 million including IFRS 16. The leverage ratio, defined as NIBD / LTM EBITDA (pro forma and adjusted for certain exceptional items), was 3.2x at the close of the second quarter of 2023.
Operating activities generated a net cash flow of NOK 240 million in the second quarter, compared with NOK 321 million in the same period last year. Changes in the operating cash flow were driven by inventory reductions, which were partly offset by reduced trade payables. In addition, utilisation of the tax deferment scheme in the Swedish subsidiaries had a positive impact on net cash flow from operating activities.
For the first half-year, net cash flow from operating activities amounted to NOK 428 million, compared with NOK 163 million in the same period last year.
Cash flow used in investing activities was NOK 40 million, which were invested in property, plant and equipment, including ongoing improvements of the IT infrastructure. The comparable figure from last year was NOK 1 565 million and relates to the acquisition of NetOnNet.
For the first half-year, cash flow used in investing activities totalled NOK 85 million, compared with NOK 1 595 million in the same period last year.
Cash flow used in financing activities was NOK 344 million during the second quarter, compared with a cash inflow of NOK 1 269 million in the same quarter prior year. The changes from last year were primarily related to refinancing of the group's debt facilities.
For the first half-year cash flow used in financing activities was NOK 151 million, compared with a cash inflow of NOK 1 440 million in 2022.

Komplett Group is subject to several risks, including market and competition risks, operational and financial risks, such as currency, interest, credit, and liquidity risks, as well as IT security risks. The board and executive management are continuously monitoring the group's risk exposure, and the group strives to take an active approach to risk management and internal control processes. Below is a summary of the key risks for the group over the coming period.
There is a risk that consumer sentiment and spending expectations remain at submersed levels due to macroeconomic uncertainty, which in turn may impact demand for capital intensive goods, such as electronics.
Market headwinds may lead to inventory build-up, resulting in increased price pressure in the market. Temporary fluctuations in the long-term growth trajectory of online retail trade may impact the group's performance in the short term.
The group operates in an intensely competitive industry, and entry of new market players, regulatory changes or changes in market dynamics may impact its competitive position.
The current geopolitical situation may also impact the costs and availability of raw materials and other input factors. Due to its online first business model, the group is less exposed to cost inflation than many of its peers, but its cost base is nevertheless subject to market inflation and currency effects.
As the group operates online, it is vulnerable to hacking and cybercrimes on critical applications and its websites. Although the group has systems in place to identify and block external attacks, the group will likely be subject to new and smarter attempts at unauthorised access that expose a risk to the business.
The group's balance sheet carries a substantial amount of intangible assets, including goodwill, which are subject to risk of impairment and other factors that may contribute to a loss in value. Change in market circumstances may further alter the phasing of the expansion of supply chain facilities and IT systems, which potentially might require adjustments to the capitalised development costs of these initiatives.
Risks and uncertainties must be considered when looking at the outlook comments below. Reference is made to the prospectus from the subsequent offering dated 4 January 2023, section 2, and note 4 in the company's Annual and Sustainability Report for 2022 for additional explanations regarding risks and uncertainties.


HIGHLIGHTS KEY FIGURES CEO COMMENTS FINANCIAL REVIEW SEGMENT REVIEW STATEMENT FROM THE BOARD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES APPENDIX
As anticipated, the market environment remained challenging in the second quarter, and demand is expected to be soft for the remainder of 2023, with the timing of a market recovery still uncertain. However, Komplett Group continues to actively counter these externally driven challenges and is focused on implementing strategies to navigate through the difficult market conditions.
The company is pursuing carefully selected growth initiatives such as new or expanded outlets and brand investments. In the second quarter, a new marketing campaign was launched for the Komplett brand in Norway, resulting in increased awareness of Komplett's high service levels and seamless deliveries, as well as strong sales. Furthermore, a new marketing concept forthe NetOnNet brand is being planned in Norway and Sweden in the second half of this year. Successful roll-outs of campaigns ahead of peak seasons, such as Back-to-School and Black Week, will also be key priorities for the company.
The group has optimised its inventory position to ensure a healthy and competitive product range with good availability. These efforts have yielded a positive contribution in the still challenging market conditions.
Komplett Group has maintained a positive gross margin trend in the second quarter, and this trend is expected to continue in comparison to prior-year periods. Margin growth will be supported by improved supplier terms, which will continue showing effects in the coming quarters. Additionally, healthier inventory levels and an improved pricing environment, relative to the previous year when excess inventory led to high campaign activity and price pressure across the industry, will contribute to margin improvement.
While the group's cost base is subject to general market inflation, its online-first business model provides some insulation from cost inflation compared to its peers. Maintaining an industry-leading cost position, even in a cost-inflationary environment, is a key priority for Komplett Group.
Although Komplett Group is facing a tough market in 2023, the company remains optimistic about the future. Demand is expected to return to its attractive growth trajectory over time, and Komplett Group is well positioned to utilise its competitive advantages to deliver an excellent customer experience.

Operating revenue for the B2C segment increased to NOK 2 585 million, compared with NOK 2 504 million for the same period in 2022. The demand environment in consumer electronics continued to be challenging in all key markets, but the impact was most visible in the group's Swedish operations. In Norway, the group made good progress on the back of improved product availability compared to last year, recovered activity in the gaming segment as well as selective brand and demand investments. The revenues further benefited from a currency translation effect of ~5.2 per cent, corresponding to a decline of ~2.0 per cent year-over-year in constant currency terms for the quarter. The market environment remains associated with substantial uncertainty.
In local currency, the operations in Norway had a revenue growth of 19.3 per cent, and a decline of 7.6 per cent in Sweden. Denmark, which represents approximately 2.7 per cent of the B2C revenue, had an increase of 43.5 per cent.
The overall gross profit for the B2C segment amounted to NOK 406 million in the second

quarter, compared with NOK 343 million in the same quarter in 2022. The increase was driven by a healthier pricing environment compared with last year, combined with improved pricing strategies, a sound inventory and good supplier partnerships.
Gross margin ended at 15.7 per cent, compared with 13.7 per cent in the same quarter of 2022.
B2C operating expenses were NOK 397 million in the second quarter, compared with NOK 364 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was partly driven by currency translation effects from conversion of operating expenses from SEK to NOK.
Despite cost savings and good cost control, the operating cost percentage increased to 15.3 per cent, from 14.5 per cent in the same quarter of last year. The increase is a result of strategic marketing investments, year-over-year effects, as well as generally high overall cost inflation affecting the cost base.
EBIT in the second quarter amounted to NOK 9 million, compared with negative NOK 21 million in the second quarter of 2022. For the second quarter, the EBIT margin came in at 0.4 per cent compared with a margin of negative 0.8 per cent in the prior-year period.

X Improved gross profit offset by increased cost level
Operating revenue for the B2B segment in the second quarter amounted to NOK 352 million, compared with NOK 351 million for the same period in 2022. Revenue in the B2B segment was supported by higher service levels in several categories, but continues to be impacted by lower demand from smaller businesses in the SME segment.
In local currency, the operation in Norway delivered a decline of 1.3 per cent, while Sweden had a revenue increase of 6.5 per cent.
Gross profit was NOK 66 million in the second quarter, compared with NOK 58 million in the same quarter of 2022. The gross margin came in at 18.8 per cent, representing an improvement compared with 16.6 per cent in the prior year. Improved pricing conditions and an attractive inventory position positively impacted the gross margin.
Total operating expenses in the quarter were NOK 44 million, compared with NOK 37 million in the same quarter in 2022. Operating expenses

relative to the operating revenue increased to 12.6 per cent in the quarter compared with 10.5 per cent in the same quarter in 2022. The increase was driven by higher marketing investments, year-over-year effects and general cost inflation.
EBIT for the second quarter was NOK 22 million, on a par with NOK 22 million in the second quarter of 2022. This gave an EBIT margin for the quarter of 6.2 per cent, compared with 6.1 per cent in the same quarter of last year.

X Increased gross profit, despite weaker consumer sentiment
Revenues for the Distribution segment amounted to NOK 695 million in the second quarter, compared with NOK 713 million for the same period in 2022. The segment remains affected by an overall weaker consumer sentiment and shifts in deliveries.
In local currency, the operation in Norway delivered a decline of 2.4 per cent, and Sweden had a revenue decline of 8.5 per cent.
Gross profit was NOK 38 million in the second quarter, compared with NOK 37 million in the same quarter of 2022. The gross margin increased by 0.3 percentage points to 5.5 per cent. The gross margin progress reflects both improved sourcing terms, improved inventory quality, operational efficiencies as well as some negative product and client mix.
Operating expenses totalled NOK 27 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with NOK 24 million in the same period in 2022. Measured as a percentage of revenue, the operating expenses were 3.9 per cent in the second quarter, compared with 3.3 per cent in the same period last year. The increase was driven by the revenue decline combined with inflationary pressures.
The EBIT result for the quarter was NOK 11 million, compared with NOK 14 million in the second quarter of 2022. This gave an EBIT margin of 1.6 per cent, compared with 1.9 per cent for the same period in 2022.

"Other" represents group costs not allocated to the operating segments: B2C, B2B, and Distribution. This applies when costs are difficult to allocate fairly between the segments.
Typical cost elements under this segment include management costs and group strategic initiatives. The different effects of IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards), especially IFRS 16, are not part of the operational measures and are excluded from the operating segments. For additional explanation, please refer to note 3 – Segment Information in this report.
Other operating revenue is related to income from royalties and totalled NOK 2 million in the quarter. Income from royalties is expected to cease as from June 2023.
Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and one-off costs, totalled a net positive NOK 17 million, compared with positive NOK 26 million in Q2 2022.
Operating expenses comprise employee benefit expenses and other operating expenses of NOK 37 million, which also include certain project related costs in the quarter. These costs were offset by a reallocation of lease costs in accordance with IFRS 16 of NOK 52 million, yielding a net positive amount being reported.
Depreciation and amortisation amounted to NOK 61 million, of which NOK 13 million is related to amortisation of acquired customer value relating to the NetOnNet acquisition, and NOK 48 million to the IFRS 16 adjustments described above.
Total operating expenses, including depreciation and excluding one-off costs, amounted to NOK 44 million, compared with NOK 27 million in the prior-year period.
Adjusted EBIT amounted to negative NOK 42 million, compared with negative NOK 25 million in the prior-year period.
A total of NOK 3 million were booked as one-off costs in the quarter, related to the refinancing process completed earlier this year.
Net financial expenses were NOK 36 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared with NOK 25 million in the second quarter of 2022. Despite lower debt levels, net financial expenses increased from last year due to factoring expenses as well as higher interest rates on existing debt facilities.
