SUMMARY

The second quarter April - June 2020

  • Net sales amounted to SEK 287 M (289) a decrease of -1% or 0% adjusted for changes in exchange rates compared to the same period last year.
  • Gross profit was SEK 64 M (65), a decrease of -1% and -1% adjusted for changes in exchange rates. Gross margin was 22.4% (22.5).
  • Operating costs excluding depreciation and change related items were SEK 50M (56), a decrease of -11%.
  • EBITDA amounted to SEK 14 M (7). Adjusted for change related items, EBITDA was SEK 14 M (9).
  • Capitalised expenses for product development were SEK 6 M (5).
  • Cash flow from operating activities was SEK 30 M (16) and the sum of cash and interestbearing financial assets was SEK 49 M (39) at the end of the second quarter. Net cash in the second quarter increased by SEK 24 M to SEK -80 M.
  • Earnings per share, before and after dilution were SEK 0.13 (-0.16).
  • The outbreak of covid-19 has had a mixed impact on the results of the second quarter. Certain segments and markets have benefited from the situation while mainly the travel segment has declined sharply. Group management has taken an active role in controlling the company's costs as a response to the covid-19 crisis, which has led to improved profitability compared to last year.

The interim period January - June 2020

  • Net sales amounted to SEK 591 M (596) a decrease of -1% or -1% adjusted for changes in exchange rates compared to the same period last year.
  • Gross profit was SEK 127 M (131), a decrease of -3% or -4% adjusted for changes in exchange rates. Gross margin was 21.6% (22.0).
  • Operating costs excluding depreciation and change related items were SEK 99M (108), a decrease of -9%.
  • EBITDA amounted to SEK 29 M (20). Adjusted for change related items, EBITDA was SEK 29 M (23).
  • Capitalised expenses for product development were SEK 11 M (10).
  • Cash flow from operating activities was SEK 25 M (11) and the sum of cash and interestbearing financial assets was SEK 49 M (39) at the end of the interim period. Net cash in the interim period increased by SEK 6 M to SEK -80 M.
  • Earnings per share, before and after dilution were SEK 0.01 (-0.21).
  • The impact of the covid-19 crisis is hard to estimate going forward as most segments of the business are affected. The future short term earnings are very dependent on the macroeconomic circumstances which can change daily. Due to these circumstances Tradedoubler has increased its 'accounts receivable reserve' during the second quarter.

CEO COMMENTS

"Tradedoubler´s results in the second quarter 2020 have been largely impacted by the covid-19 crisis which has affected all business segments and markets.

The travel segment which normally stands for around 20% of Tradedoubler´s net sales has declined by around 80% while all retail related segments have increased due to a higher demand for online sales. Markets with a high share of travel clients like France, the Netherlands and the UK have lower results, while the other markets have benefited from the situation.

As a result of all these movements between segments and markets our revenue and gross profit have been stable compared to last year.

A close management of costs including governmental support in some markets has helped to manage the crisis and even improve profitability.

The crisis will continue to impact our business in the coming quarters, but it is uncertain to what extent as the affect will depend largely on macro-economic circumstances.

The good result in Q2 has only been possible with a very close collaboration between all our teams and our clients and partners and with the high commitment of all employees which I find remarkable and am thankful for.

Stockholm – 27 August 2020 Matthias Stadelmeyer

THE GROUP'S RESULTS

If not explicitly stated, the disclosed financial information refers to reported numbers that are not adjusted for change related items nor changes in exchange rates. For more information regarding change related items see page 11.

Consolidated net sales during the interim period were SEK 591 M (596), which was a decrease of 1 per cent. Adjusted for changes in exchange rates the decrease was also -1 per cent.

Consolidated net sales during the second quarter were SEK 287 M (289), which was a decrease of -1 per cent. Adjusted for changes in exchange rates the net sales was flat. The covid-19 crisis has severely impacted the net sales of travel clients which prior to the crisis has been a large part of the total business of Tradedoubler. This decrease has been covered to a large extent by other growing segments, such as the retail segment.

Gross profit during the interim period was SEK 127 M (131), which was a decrease of -3 per cent or a decrease of -4 per cent adjusted for changes in exchange rates.

Gross profit during the second quarter was SEK 64 M (65) which was a decrease of -1 per cent and the same adjusted for changes in exchange rates. The reduction in gross profit is mainly related to the reduction in the net sales in the travel segment.

Gross margin during the interim period was 21.6 per cent (22.0) and 22.4 per cent (22.5%) during the second quarter.

Operating costs, excluding depreciation, amounted to SEK 99 M (111) during the interim period. Operating costs, excluding change related items and depreciation, were SEK 99 M (108). This was a decrease of -9 per cent and -9 per cent adjusted for changes in exchange rates.

Operating costs, excluding depreciation, amounted to SEK 50 M (58) during the second quarter. Operating costs, excluding change related items and depreciation, were SEK 50 M (56). This was a decrease of 11 per cent or a change of 10 per cent adjusted for changes in exchange rates. The decreased costs are mainly related to fewer employees compared to last year. Other variable costs have been reduced as well as reaction to the covid-19 crisis.

Operating profit before depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) during the interim period was SEK 29 M (20). Adjusted for change related items, EBITDA was SEK 29 M (23). Depreciation and amortisation were SEK 20 M (18) and operating profit (EBIT) amounted to SEK 9 M (2).

THE GROUP'S RESULTS

Operating profit before depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) in the second quarter was SEK 14 M (7). Adjusted for change related items, EBITDA was SEK 14 M (9).

Depreciation and amortisation were SEK 11 M (9) and operating profit (EBIT) amounted to SEK 4 M (-2).

Net financial items during the interim period were SEK -6.4 M (-9.8) where of exchange rates effects were SEK -1.7 M (-1.6). Financial income and expenses amounted to SEK -4.8 M (-8.2).

Net financial items in the second quarter were SEK 2.9 M (-4.5) where of exchange rates effects were SEK 5.7 M (-0.4), the positive effect from exchanges rates are mainly related to having the loan denominated in EUR while the EUR/SEK rate has decreased, this effect is currently not hedged. Financial income and expenses amounted to SEK -2.8 M (-4.1). Financial income and expense are lower compared to last year due to better financing terms.

Profit after tax during the interim period amounted to SEK 0.4 M (-9.5), corporate income tax was SEK -1.7 M (-2.1). In the second quarter corporate income tax was SEK -0.6 M (-0.8) and profit after tax was SEK 6.1 M (-7.1).

If not explicitly stated, the disclosed financial information refers to reported numbers that are not adjusted for change related items nor changes in exchange rates. For more information regarding change related items see page 11.

Tradedoubler's operational segments are presented at a regional level where Tradedoubler's segments consists of DACH (Germany and Switzerland), France & Benelux (France and Netherlands), Nordics (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Poland), South (Italy and Spain) and UK & Ireland.

Net sales

Net sales during the interim period amounted to SEK 591 M (596), which was a decrease of 1 per cent and equally adjusted for changes in exchange rates. In certain markets Government support related to Covid-19 has been received, which has been recognized in net sales.

Net sales during the second quarter amounted to SEK 287 M (289), which was a decrease of -1 per cent or 0 per cent adjusted for changes in exchange rates. The net sales from travel clients dropped by 78% in the second quarter compared to the same period last year, which is directly related to the covid-19 crisis. Despite this decline in travel, DACH, Nordics and South are growing due to strong positions in retail segments. France & Benelux and UK & Ireland's net sales decreased due to their exposure to travel clients.

EBITDA

EBITDA for the operational segments have improved in all markets except for France & Benelux. In the second quarter we see improved EBITDA/Net sales margin in all segments compared to the same period last year. The main reason is lower salary costs due to fewer employees, an effect we already saw at the end of last quarter.

Costs for group management and support functions during the interim period amounted to SEK 24 M (25), a decrease of 6 per cent. Costs during the second quarter were SEK 12 M (13).

Seasonal Variations

Tradedoubler's operations, particularly within Performance Marketing, fluctuate with the development of e-commerce and online advertising. There are seasonal variations particularly within e-commerce. The highest level of activity is on "Black Friday" and before Christmas, which implies that the first and the fourth quarter of a year are normally the strongest for Tradedoubler.

The Parent Company

The parent company's net sales amounted to SEK 48 M (34) during the interim period and to SEK 25 M (19) during the second quarter. Revenue primarily consisted of internal licensing revenue to subsidiaries.

Operating profit (EBIT) was SEK 8 M (-8) during the interim period and SEK 5 M (-2) during the second quarter.

Risks and Uncertainty Factors

Critical Estimates and Judgements

Tradedoubler divides risks into market-related risks, operational risks, financial risks and legal risks. These risks are described in note C2 in the 2019 Annual Report. No significant risks and uncertainty factors have arisen in addition to those described in the 2019 annual report.

Transactions with Related Parties

Aside from transactions in the normal course of business or, to the board and senior executives the following third-party transactions have occurred during 2020. Tradedoubler's CTO, Francois Pacot, has during the year received payment of EUR 60 K related to his monthly fee as consultant and EUR 118 K related to other services through his fully owned companies. Reworld Media has, as a publisher in France received remuneration of EUR 19 K, EUR 24 K for provided HR-support and EUR 75 K in remuneration for rent, both related to Tradedoubler's French subsidiary. Reworld Media has during 2020 been invoiced for purchased services from Tradedoubler France of EUR 28 K in total.

In May 2018, Tradedoubler entered into a loan agreement with Reworld Media. This loan was renegotiated and increased in Q3 2019 so that the company could replace the loan from a Swedish credit institution. At the end of the quarter the loan amounted to SEK 137 M (EUR 12.84 M). The loan has an amortization structure and matures in 2026. The loan is subscribed on market terms and the interest expense during the interim period has amounted to SEK 2.1 M. The second and last payment amounting to EUR 312 K, related to the arrangement of the loan, was paid to Reworld Media in March 2020. The loan has as of the end of the period been amortized by SEK 6.4 M during 2020. The agreement contains a 'change of control'-clause, but no other covenants. The arm's length principle has been applied on all these transactions.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign exchange risk refers to the risk that changes in exchange rates may affect the consolidated income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement. Foreign exchange risk exists in the form of transaction risk and translation risk. Tradedoubler is exposed to foreign exchange risk in 14 countries involving eight different currencies, with Euro (EUR) and British pounds (GBP) representing the majority share. During the interim period 2020 approximately 49 (54) per cent of group sales were made in EUR and approximately 19 (19) per cent in GBP. Approximately 39 (40) per cent of the group's operational costs were in EUR and approximately 6 (13) per cent in GBP. Net investments in foreign currency or transaction risks are not currently hedged. Exposure attributable to exchange rate fluctuation in client and supplier invoices is limited since invoicing to customers and from suppliers largely occurs in local currency for all companies in the group.

Tradedoubler renegotiated the current loan deal with Reworld Media S.A. during the third quarter 2019. This facility is denominated in EUR and currently not hedged.

REVIEW REPORT

Tradedoubler AB (publ), corporate identity number 556575-7423

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Tradedoubler AB as at June 30, 2020 and for the six months period then ended. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Group, and in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Parent Company.
