CEO Hermann Haraldsson says: "The first quarter developed roughly in line with our expectations with net revenue growth of 29%. Customer satisfaction remains high as well as the True Frequency continues to rise, which combined with a continued newcustomer-intake at a high level, confirms our strong momentum. The average order value was down driven by higher returns in the first quarter. However, gross average order value was unchanged compared to last year as lower pricing levels were offset by an increase in items per basket driven by strong growth in the newer categories. Over the last 12 months the average order value and the return rate has been at a stable level, but we will closely monitor the development of these in the coming period."

"The gross margin remained under pressure from the general industry trading of excess stock from the Autumn Winter 18 season. This spillover effect from last year could only be partly offset by our increased level of campaign stock resulting in a gross margin 1.3%-points lower than last year. The operating cost ratios were negatively impacted be the lower average order value, partly offset by lower customer acquisition costs leading to SEK 7 million lower adjusted EBIT compared to last year, half of which was related to our physical beauty store in Copenhagen.

"Our categories, especially Sport and Beauty, continue their strong growth, and I am very excited to see the development of our online outlet Booztlet.com. We are putting more resources into Booztlet.com, both personnel and marketing, and combined with the experience from building Boozt.com into a leading fashion destination we are starting to see the results. This is still early days for Booztlet.com, but we believe the potential is huge. Our flagship physical beauty store continues to be a drag on profitability but is showing progress. Furthermore, we have taken the decision to close our smaller physical beauty store in Roskilde to further limit the losses of the Other segment going forward. Well through the challenging first months of this year we maintain our guidance of above 27% net revenue growth and an improved adjusted EBIT margin compared to 2018."

Group development

Net revenue

Net revenue in the first quarter increased with 29.1% to SEK 712.4 million (551.9). Currency had a positive impact of around 1 percentage point on net revenue growth and relates primarily to the strengthening of DKK, EUR and NOK compared to SEK.

The net revenue increase was supported by 25.3% growth for Boozt.com and 104% growth for Booztlet.com. The structural growth towards online continued in the Nordics. The overall market environment for clothing in the first quarter was impacted by spillover effects from the challenging market conditions experienced in the last part of 2018. The long summer of 2018 combined with a warm fall meant less demand for autumn/winter styles and consequently a high inventory level in the industry. This led to more aggressive discounting during the traditional sales period in the first quarter.

Other net revenue decreased to SEK 9.6 million (10.9) in the first quarter. Higher marketing income was offset by lower revenue from breakage of gift cards. Breakage from gift cards was re-estimated in the first quarter of 2018 also taking into account breakage revenue from previous years.

Finland 61.4 49.7 23.6%
Rest of Europe 65.6 31.1 111%
TOTAL Net revenue 712.4 551.9 29.1%

Denmark and Sweden are the largest markets each representing 33% of net revenue (33% and 36% respectively). Denmark was the fastest growing of the Nordic countries with 31.1% growth. Trading conditions in Sweden remained impacted by consumers holding back on spending. The increase in Rest of Europe of 111% was driven by an increasing consumer appetite towards Nordic fashion brands and an increase in online marketing spending compared to the year-earlier period. There has been no change in the marketing strategy outside the Nordics, as it remains online marketing only.

Gross profit

The gross profit increased with 23.8% to SEK 269.7 million (217.9) during the quarter. The gross margin decreased to 37.9% (39.1%).

The decrease in gross margin was driven by elevated promotional activities to ensure a continuously healthy stock composition in a market affected by high inventory levels following the late start to the autumn/winter (AW18) season. This continued to impact the market throughout the winter months in the first quarter. An increased level of campaign stock, bought at high discounts from the brands in the latter part of the fourth quarter, helped mitigate some of the pressure on gross margin. Also, strong growth in the categories Sport, Beauty and Kids with lower gross margin than fashion, had a negative impact.

EBIT

EBIT decreased to SEK -21.0 million (-6.4) in the first the quarter, while the EBIT margin decreased 1.8 percentage points to -2.9% (-1.2%).

The decrease was driven by the decline in the gross margin and a lower average order value negatively impacting all operating cost ratios. The fulfilment cost ratio increased to 14.8% (13.5%) and the admin & other cost ratio increased to 12.3% (11.1%) while the marketing

Income statement and cash flow items are compared with the corresponding year-earlier period. Balance sheet items refer to the position at the end of the period and compared with the corresponding year-earlier period, meaning March 31, 2018. The first quarter refers to the period January – March 2019.

cost ratio decreased to 10.3% (13.7%) as the scale effects more than offset the negative impact from lower average order value.

Fulfilment costs increased more than net revenue growth compared to last year driven by higher distribution cost from increased returns, higher return handling costs and a slight inflation on overall distribution costs. Admin & other costs were negatively impacted by social charges related to the Group's warrant program 2015/2015 and higher personnel costs driven by a strengthening of the teams around the newer categories and Booztlet.com. Marketing costs were around the same level as last year demonstrating scale effects without jeopardizing new customer growth which was higher than the same period last year.

The loss in the physical stores of SEK -5.0 million (-1.7), which was driven by the Beauty by Boozt store in Copenhagen, had negative impact on EBIT compared to last year.

Adjusted EBIT

Adjusted EBIT amounted to SEK -11.3 million (-4.1) in the first quarter. The adjusted EBIT margin decreased to -1.6% (-0.7%). The adjustment consists of social charges related to the Group's warrant program 2015/2025 of SEK -9.4 million (-1.6). The reserve for social charges fluctuates between periods since it, among other things, is affected by the share price of the company and the probability of number of vested warrants. The adjustment also includes cost for share-based payments related to the warrant program of SEK -0.2 million (-0.2).

IFRS 16 implementation

Following implementation of IFRS 16 the operating cost and depreciation ratios are compiled differently from last year as leased assets are reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. More information can be found in the 2018 Annual Report (note 2).

The opening balance for the IFRS 16 implementation can be seen in note 1 on page 17.

Financial items

The Group's financial costs amounted to SEK -2.4 million (-7.3) and financial income amounted to SEK -0.0 million (0.0) in the quarter. The first quarter last year was impacted by a SEK -6.7 million from the Group's derivatives, while no derivatives are held this year.

The financial items are attributable to interests on interest bearing liabilities as well as changes in fair value of the Group's derivatives.

See note 3 for information on IFRS 16 impact on financial items.

Net financial items amounted to SEK -2.4 million (-7.3).

Tax

Tax amounted to a positive SEK 3.2 million compared to a positive SEK 2.5 million in the first quarter last year. During the quarter, the effective tax rate was 13.8%. Tax for the period consisted of an increase in the deferred tax asset related to tax losses carried forward. Deferred tax assets for tax losses carried forward are reported to the extent that it is likely they will be utilised.

The Group expects to utilise the deferred tax assets recognised within the coming 3 years. There is no time limitation for the deferred tax asset relating to tax losses carried forward.

Net profit

The net result for the quarter totaled SEK -20.2 million (-11.2). Earnings per share amounted to SEK -0.35 (-0.20). Earnings per share after dilution amounted to SEK -0.35 (-0.20).

Working capital

The Group realised a net working capital of SEK 380.2 million (213.7) equivalent to 12.9% (10.0%) of the net revenue for the last twelve months. The increase in net working capital is primarily from a higher inventory position driven by a large number of campaign buys and earlier in-deliveries of Spring/Summer 2019 goods compared to last year.

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK -55.0 million (-7.7). The decrease is driven by changes in working capital and lower operating profit. Cash flow from changes in working capital amounted to SEK -65.7 million (-13.4) impacted by higher inventories driven by a higher level of campaign stock (both AW18, SS18 and never-out-of-stock items) and lower account payables from earlier in-deliveries of Spring/Summer 2019.

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -12.7 million (-7.6).

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -27.9 million (-14.9) in the period and was attributable to loan repayments according to plan related to the previous automation expansion of the warehouse and a change in the lease liability from implementation of IFRS 16.

Cash flow for the quarter amounted to SEK -95.6 million (-30.3).

Financial position

Total assets increased to SEK 2,231.2 million (1,507.9) driven by higher fixed assets from implementation of IFRS 16 but also increased inventory volumes of 48%, which is related to a high number of campaign buys in the fourth quarter of 2018 and earlier in-deliveries of Spring/Summer 2019 goods.

Fixed assets increased to SEK 624.8 million (147.0). The increase was driven by the implementation of IFRS 16 resulting in a right of use asset of SEK 455.1 million (and corresponding lease liabilities). This was primarily made up of leasing contracts relating to the premises for the fulfilment centre in Ängelholm (equivalent to around 70% of the total lease liability), the headquarter in Hyllie and the physical retail stores. In addition, the Group has identified other essential lease agreements regarding cars, trucks and machines. Equipment increased compared to last year due to investments made for the Group's fulfilment center.

Deferred tax assets decreased to SEK 76.6 million (94.9) and consisted of capitalised tax losses carried forward.

Net revenue

Net revenue increased with 25.3% to SEK 660.6 million (527.0) in the quarter supported by a positive impact of around 1%-point from currency. The challenging market situation with high inventory levels required elevated promotional activities to secure the growth and maintain a healthy stock composition. Denmark was the strongest growth contributor as the leverage on the marketing spend is strongest in our most mature market. Overall the customer acquisition costs were lower than last year.

The new categories and especially Sport and Beauty showed very strong growth.

Average order value decreased to SEK 774 (824) for the quarter negatively impacting profitability. The decrease was primarily driven by higher returns. Gross average order value was unchanged compared to last year as the impact from lower price levels was offset by an increase in items per basket driven by strong growth in Sport and Beauty. Return rates increased to around 43% in the quarter, thus breaking the trend seen over the last 12 months with a return rate around 40%. The return patterns will be closely monitored over the coming period.

New customer intake was higher than last year despite not increasing the marketing spend in the quarter. True frequency developed positively with an increase from 7.2 to 7.8. Customer satisfaction continued at a high level as shown by a Trustpilot score of 9.2 (9.2) and an NPS score of 70 (68).

EBIT & Adjusted EBIT

EBIT decreased to SEK -19.5 million (-8.5) for the quarter, and the EBIT margin decreased 1.3 percentage points to -3.0% (-1.6%). The decrease was driven by a lower gross margin and higher operating cost ratios driven by the lower average order value. This was partly offset by a lower marketing cost ratio due to scale effects.

Adjusted EBIT decreased to SEK -10.4 million (-6.3), while the adjusted EBIT margin decreased 0.4 percentage point to -1.6% (-1.2%). The adjustment was related to social charges related to the Group's 2015/2015 warrant program.

Net revenue

Net revenue increased with 104% to SEK 45.5 million (22.3) in the quarter and was attributable to an increased focus on attracting new customers in the off-price segment (customers with a high interest in discounted goods) as well as providing incentives for active Booztlet.com customers to increase their buying frequency.

Denmark, Sweden and Finland all had strong growth and compared to last year Booztlet.com was also marketed outside the Nordics.

Average order value was down compared to the first quarter of 2018 due to overall lower price levels.

EBIT & Adjusted EBIT

EBIT decreased to SEK 3.6 million (3.8), while the EBIT margin decreased 9.4 percentage points to 7.9% (17.2%) for the quarter. The decrease was driven by higher marketing costs as the building of the Booztlet.com brand has been accelerated compared to the same period last year and lower gross margin.

Adjusted EBIT increased to SEK 4.2 million (3.9), while the adjusted EBIT margin decreased 8.5 percentage points to 9.1% (17.6%).

Net revenue

Net revenue increased with 145% to SEK 6.3 million (2.6) in the quarter. The increase is mainly attributable to the opening of the new offline Beauty by Boozt store in Copenhagen.

EBIT

EBIT decreased to SEK -5.0 million (-1.7) in the quarter. The negative development was driven by costs related to the new offline Beauty by Boozt store in Copenhagen, which continues to be under pressure from low revenue and high costs driven by rent and staff, although improving from the fourth quarter of 2018 . The offline Booztlet store, showed a small positive EBIT in the first quarter.

No adjustments to EBIT have been made for the segment Other.

Limiting exposure to physical retail

The first Beauty by Boozt store opened in Roskilde, Denmark in December 2016 and served the purpose of strengthening the relationship to the beauty brands helping build a strong offering online on Boozt.com. As the new larger store in Copenhagen can serve that purpose alone, the store in Roskilde will be closed end of the second quarter. This is expected to result in one-off costs of around SEK 5 million.

Note 1 - Accounting principles

The report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Information required by IAS 34 p.16 A is provided in notes and other sections in the interim report. The complete accounting principles will be disclosed in the annual report of 2019.

The accounting and measurement policies, as well as the assessment bases, applied in the 2018 Annual Report have also been applied in this quarterly report, with exception of what is described below

New or amended accounting standards that come into force in 2019 or later.

IFRS 16 Leasing replaced IAS 17 as of January 1, 2019. Under the new standard, the majority of leased assets are reported in the balance sheet. The only exceptions are short-term and low-value leases. For the Group the implementation of IFRS 16 affected the financial statements as all leases in the Group are capitalized, i.e. an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rent are recognised. This have an effect on the total balance sheet and key ratios such as solidity. The contracts that have the greatest impact are leasing contracts relating to the premises for the fulfilment centre in Ängelholm (approximately 70% of the Group's lease liability), the headquarter in Hyllie and the physical retail stores. In addition, the Group has identified smaller lease agreements with cars, trucks and minor machines which also are accounted under IFRS 16. For the first quarter in 2019, the value of the Group's "right use of asset" is SEK 455.1 Million.

Important estimates and assessments

For warrant program 2015/2025, a probability assessment of the proportion of warrant holders expected to fulfil the terms and conditions that gives them a right to exercise the issued warrants is performed at each reporting date. The assessment is thereby a factor in the calculation of the liability (social charges) and IFRS 2 cost for share based payments to employees for the period.

In IFRS 15 the accrual for customer returns is based on 90% of the realised returns (approximately 20 days into the month after closing) and an estimate to the last 10% of the total accrual.

The depreciation period for the automated warehouse system Autostore has been changed from January 1, 2019. The residual value as per January 1, 2019 will be linearly depreciated resulting in a total depreciation period of 10 years from the first day of capitalisation. Aluminum grid and boxes are depreciated over 10 years and the remaining components over 5 years. The operation of Autostore until today has shown that the durability and service life of aluminum grid and boxes is very good and exceeds the original assessment of 5 years. For robots and other components, the depreciation period of 5 years is retained.

Definitions and rationale for the use of certain Alternative Performance Measures (APM)

Explanation APM / IFRS Definition Rationale
Active customers APM Number of customers which made at least one order
during the last 12 months.
The measure is to display, together with historical figures,
how the number of active customers have developed in
absolute figures.
Adjusted Admin &
Other cost ratio
APM Total operating costs less items affecting comparability,
less share based compensations, less fulfilment
costs, less marketing costs, less goods for resale less
depreciation plus other operating income divided by
net revenue.
The aim of the figure is to demonstrate the development
of administation & other costs without the effect of one
time events, as well as costs linked to the share price
development of Boozt AB (publ).
Adjusted EBIT APM Profit/loss before interest, tax, share based payments
related to employees and items affecting comparability.
The aim of the figure is to display the operating profit
excluding
non-recurring items and share based
compensation related to employees and items affecting
comparability are excluded from this metric.
Adjusted EBIT margin APM Adjusted EBIT divided by net revenue. The aim of the figure is to display the Group's
effectiveness in profit creation excluding impact from
share price dependent costs.
Adjusted fulfilment
cost ratio
APM Fulfilment and distribution cost less items affecting
comparability divided by net revenue.
The aim is to group the costs which is related to pick,
pack, returnhandling, indeliveries and all distribution
costs associated with shipping parcels to and from
customers as well as business to business distribution
costs less any cost items, which might affect the trend
being one time by nature, and then evaluate these costs
against net revenue created.
Adjusted net debt/net cash APM Interest bearing liabilities excluding interest bearing
lease liabilities (IFRS 16) less cash and cash equivalents.
The aim is to display the cash and cash equivalent
available after having theoretical settled all interest
bearing liabilities be it current or non-current (excluding
interest bearing lease liabilities).
Admin & Other cost ratio APM Total operating costs less fulfilment costs, less marketing
costs, less goods for resale, less depreciation plus
other operating income divided by net revenue.
The aim of the figure is to demonstrate the development
of admin & other costs and then evaluate these costs
against net revenue created.
Average order value APM Transactional net revenue divided by no. of orders. The aim of the figure is to show the average consumer
monetary value per basket excluding VAT, which again
is very important to determine and understand the unit
economics of each basket of the Group's operation.
BFC APM Boozt Fulfilment Centre. The location of the Group's warehouse.
Conversion rate APM Total number of orders divided by total number of site
visits.
The aim is to understand how traffic sent to the Group's
websites are converting into monetary orders.
Depreciation cost ratio APM Depreciation and amortizations divided by net revenue. The aim of the figure is to track the development of
depreciation / amortization costs and then evaluate these
costs against net revenue created.
Earnings per share IFRS Profit/loss for the period divided by weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the period.
The aim is to distribute the company's profit to each
share.
Explanation APM / IFRS Definition Rationale
Earnings per share
after dilution
IFRS Profit/loss for the period divided by the diluted
weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the period. The number of ordinary shares
shall be the weighted average number of shares, used
when per share, plus the weighted average number
of shares that would be issued measuring basic
earnings on the conversion of all the dilutive potential
shares into ordinary shares. Potential ordinary shares
shall be treated as dilutive when, and only when,
their conversion to ordinary shares would decrease
earnings per share or increase loss per share.
The aim is to distribute the company's profit to each share
including the net non registered shares (i.e. warrants or
similar).
EBIT (Operating profit) IFRS Profit/loss before interest and tax. The aim of this figure is to display the profit/loss before
interests and tax
Equity / asset ratio APM Total equity divided by total assets. To what degree are the Group's assets funded by capital
ultimately owned by the Group's shareholders.
Fulfilment cost ratio APM Fulfilment and distribution cost divided by net revenue. The aim is to group the costs which is related to pick,
pack, returnhandling, indeliveries and all distribution
costs associated with shipping parcels to and from
customers as well as business to business distribution
costs and then evaluate these costs against net revenue
created.
Gross profit APM Net revenue decreased with cost of goods for resale. The aim is to show the contribution left after cost of
goods for resale, implying the amount of funds available
for the remaining costs and profit.
Gross margin APM Gross profit (excluding other operating income) as a
percentage of net revenue.
The aim is to analyse gross profit over time, expressed as
percent of net revneue.
Growth in local currency APM Growth in local currency weighted with the local
currency's share of net revenue in SEK in the reporting
quarter.
To illustrate the growth adjusted for the impact of
translating foreign currency to SEK.
Items affecting comparability APM Items that are not related with the operations and are
the type of items that are not expected to re-occur
often or regularly and that are items of significant value.
The aim is to isolate events, that cannot be characterised
as normal operational costs or non-recurring.
Lease liabilities IFRS The Group's lease liabilities taking into consideration
the Group's borrowing interest rate and lenght of lease
agreements, options etc.
The Group's lease liabilities considered as a loan with
amortizations and interest.
Marketing cost ratio APM Marketing cost divided by net revenue. The aim is to group the costs which is related to
production, media airtime, online exposures, analytics
concerning monitoring of sales, CRM activities and then
evaluate these costs against net revenue created.
Net working capital APM Current assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents,
less non-interest bearing current liabilities.
The purpose of displaying net working capital is to
display short-term financial health since the measure
indicate if the company has enough short-term assets to
cover its short-term debt. Net working capital can be put
in relation to net revenues to understand efficiency of net
working capital tied up in operations.
Net debt / net cash APM Interest bearing liabilities less cash and cash
equivalents.
The aim is to display the cash and cash equivalent
available after having theoretical settled all interest
bearing liabilities be it current or non-current.
Net revenue IFRS Transactional net revenue less fees paid to consignment
partners plus other revenue.
This is the IFRS net revenue measurement taking into
consideration that only the commission share of a
transaction can be recognised as revenue, and even to
include revenue which does not come from transactions
with customers.
No. of orders APM Number of orders placed by customers during the
period, irrespective of cancellations or returns
Number of orders is a parameter in measuring the
average order value.
Explanation APM / IFRS Definition Rationale
No. of orders per active
customer (order frequency)
APM Number of orders during the last 12 months divided by
the total number of active customers end of period.
This number illustrates the frequency for an isolated cohort
(active customers). It helps the reader in understanding
to what extend the customers are coming back and the
frequency at which they have shopped during the last 12
months, irrespective of whether they have been active
from the start of the 12 months or are new customers who
have been active in less than 12 months.
Right of use asset IFRS Present value of the Group's lease assets taking into
consideration the Group's borrowing interest rate.
To clarify the Group's contingent assets which will
have to be considered in combination with the Group's
contingent lease liabilities.
Site visits APM Number of visits to a site or group of sites, irrespective
of device used.
This number is relevant to understand the conversion
rate.
Share based payments APM Costs of the Group which are settled via issuing of
shares.
The aim is to isolate all costs associated with share based
payments be it IFRS 2 costs and taxes associated with
share based payments. Since these costs to a large
extend will fluctuate with the share price development or
employee turnover, it can assist the reader in evaluating
the Group's performance excluding these share based
payment costs.
Transactional net revenue APM Gross sales (incl. shipping and invoice income) less
discounts and returns, excl. VAT.
"The aim of the figure is to display the total consumer
value of the orders processed less returns and excluding
VAT. Transactional net revenue less fee to consignment
partners plus other revenue not related to consumer
orders equals net revenue. The transactional net revenue
can be calculated as average order value (AOV) multiplied
with no. of orders."
True frequency APM Order frequency for customers that have been with
Boozt.com during last 12 months, hence not impacted
by orders from new customers.
This figure isolates the co-hort which purchased with
the Group 12 months ago, and then looks at this co
hort's behavior for the proceeding 12 months in terms of
frequency (how many orders do they place on average).
This will give the reader an understanding about the co
horts frequency behavior once they mature.
