July 29th 2021
1H 2021 Highlights
Strong growth (+28,6%) of aggregated sales of licensees. € 14,5m EBITDA (€ 0,8m in 1H20). Almost stable NFP after dividends and shares buy-back.
1H aggregated sales amounted to € 443,1m (+20,5% compared to prior year), led by aggregated sales of licensees (ASL) up 28,6% YoY, while aggregated sales of sourcing centers (ASSC, +1% YoY) were still affected by delayed sea shipments.
Consolidated sales amounted to € 128,5m (+17,7% YoY), despite the extended closure of directly operated stores in several European countries due to anti-Covid measures. Kappa Europe overperformed (+36,5%) in spite of the critical market situation in UK.
EBITDA stood at € 14,5m (€ 0,8m in H1 2020) driven by higher volumes and higher margins in all geographies of direct operations.
Net Financial Position, at € 84,1m, was substantially stable vs 2020YE (€ 82,2m). Positive free cash flow (€ 4,7m) offset dividend payment and own shares buy back.

1H 2021 EBITDA Bridge
in € million
- Contribution margin: higher contribution margin mainly driven by sales in Italy (+12,3%), despite anti-Covid measures, and strong growth at Kappa Europe (+36,5%)
- Royalties and sourcing: positive contribution led by ASL (+€ 2,8m) and ASSC (+€ 0,7m) as well as by lower royalties paid to third parties
- Labour cost: slightly increased, mostly due to lower temporary layoffs vs last year
- Sponsorship and media: lower costs of sponsorship agreements (due to the impact of covid-19 on sports competitions) and lower marketing contributions to commercial licensees only partially offset by the costs of the new sponsorship agreements (mostly ACF Fiorentina from sport season 2020/21)
- Others: mainly re-negotiations of leases for shops closed during the period (+€ 0,5m)
