CEO Hermann Haraldsson says: "Momentum is strong in our business. We grew the business 26% in local currency and profitability was strong with a 7.4% adjusted EBIT margin in the seasonally weaker third quarter. Customers are happy and we continue to see a high growth of new Nordic customers. We now have more than 2 million active customers shopping at Boozt.com and Booztlet.com. Following the better than expected development we upgrade our full year outlook for adjusted EBIT margin to 5.5-6.5%."

"Internally the energy is high and while executing on the daily operation we have many exciting projects under development. Expanding into the Home category is one of these and we have high ambitions as we want to build the strongest home offering in the Nordics. In general, we see many attractive growth opportunities, both organic and acquisitive. To increase our flexibility to act on the strategic opportunities, we intent to raise capital via a dual listing in Denmark. This also serves the purpose of anchoring our position in our strongest performing market and as an Øresund's company we feel it is natural to be listed in both Sweden and Denmark."

CEO comment

We continue to see a positive momentum in our business. The many new customers we gained over the Spring/Summer are coming back in line with historic patterns boding well for making the 2020 cohort another strong and loyal cohort. Supporting this is the high customer satisfaction of existing and new customers. Also promising is the high average order value and the continued lower return rate driven by the changing product mix with strong growth in Men's as well as the categories Kids, Sport and Beauty.

Growth was during the quarter negatively impacted by lower stock availability. The final months of the Spring/Summer season was negatively impacted by the very strong sell-through in Q2. An unusually high level of campaign buys, which are items bought in-season at lower prices, partly compensated for this. The beginning of the Autumn/Winter season was also impacted by lower stock availability for our customers, this due to COVID-19 related delays in the supply chain.

Net revenue growth ended at 23% for the quarter supported by 15% growth for Boozt.com and 101% growth for Booztlet.com. Excluding the negative impact from currencies, the implementation of the "fair use" policy and the change to a consignment agreement with a large brand partner net revenue growth was around 29% in the third quarter.

The third quarter has always been a difficult quarter in terms of profitability, as it is heavily impacted by end-of-season sales. Making a solid profit in this quarter for the first time, is another testament to the profitability potential of our business model with a high average order value. The adjusted EBIT margin improved 11 percentage points to 7.4%. This was above our initial expectations of 5-6% as a consequence of a lower than anticipated return rate and a positive currency effect from the balance sheet month-end revaluation. The positive development was fueled by a 7 percentage points improvement in gross margin, driven by campaign goods representing an unusual high share of the inventory mix. Also, the significant operational improvements in our fulfilment setup continue to benefit positively.

Our Other segment consisting of the physical stores are for the first time showing a profit. Although the numbers are relatively small, it is a significant step for us to put the loss-making times of the Other segment behind us. It has been a significant drag on our profitability, and we are pleased that we have found a way to profitable navigate the offline landscape.

The free cash flow generation was strong at SEK 123 million. This was mainly due to the positive development in working capital and the improved operating profit. At the end of the quarter we had a cash position of SEK 1,058 million. SEK 200 million of those is from our revolving credit facility, which was repaid in October.

To facilitate the growth for 2021 we have built out the first part of the phase 4 automation expansion at our fulfilment centre. The process of taking over the staff from the current staff provider is running according to plan and we are ready to manage our own fulfilment staff operation from January 1, 2021.

During the fourth quarter we will launch our Home interior category with the ambition to build the strongest Home offering in the Nordics. Our ambition is to offer the Nordic customer the full range of the best and most relevant mid-to-premium priced Home brands, covering all rooms in the house. We have employed a strong team of experienced Home buyers and merchandisers who in combination with our platform, marketing and fulfilment expertise will create an outstanding customer experience for Home shopping. Our launch into the home category is a significant step towards creating the true department store experience online. Shopping for relevant and complementary branded products in a frictionless environment. This will further elevate the experience for our 2 million active Nordic customers, who over the last few years increasingly have shopped in the adjacent categories around the core fashion offering; Kids, Sport and Beauty.

We have recently announced that we are pursuing a dual listing in Copenhagen as well as a capital raise through a public offering. Despite already having a strong cash position we want to further improve our readiness to act on both the organic growth opportunities as well as potential attractive M&A opportunities. Our strategic priorities are clear. Organic growth is the main priority, but we are looking for attractive bolt-on acquisitions that could strengthen our category expertise, technology platform or Nordic presence. A listing in Copenhagen will further strengthen our position in our strongest performing market.

The supplier delivery of the Autumn/Winter goods has been behind last year due to COVID-19 related delays and cancellations in the supply chain as flagged in our trading update from October 6. Since then we have seen good traction on the ordered goods being delivered, which has further been complemented by a high level of campaign buys. Following this we see less uncertainty in the stock situation for the rest of the year. As a consequence of this together with a strong performance in the first part of the fourth quarter we upgrade our 2020 outlook for the adjusted EBIT margin to 5.5-6.5% and now expect to be in the upper end of the net revenue growth range of 20-25%.

Net revenue

Third quarter

Net revenue in the third quarter increased with 23.0% to SEK 940.1 million (764.1). Currency had a negative impact on net revenue growth in the quarter of around 3 percentage points and relates primarily to the weakening of NOK and DKK compared to SEK.

Net revenue growth was during the final months of the Spring/Summer season negatively impacted by lower stock availability due to the very strong sell-through in Q2. An unusually high level of campaign goods (items bought in-season at lower prices) partly compensated for this. The Autumn/Winter season had a good start, despite the COVID-19 related delays in the supply chain leading to a lower stock availability for our customers.

Positively affecting net revenue growth was lower returns due to a different sales mix with relatively stronger growth in Men, Kids, Sport and Beauty, which all have a lower return rate than Women's fashion. Other net revenue is revenue not directly linked to the product such as marketing income from Boozt Media Partnership, freight income and breakage from gift cards.

Year-to-date

For the first nine months of 2020 net revenue increased with 23.5% to SEK 2,934.3 million (2,375.2). Currency had a negative impact on net revenue growth of around 1.5 percentage points and relates to the weakening of NOK compared to SEK.

Excluding the change to a consignment-like agreement with a large brand partner effective from October 1, 2019 and the introduction of a 'fair use' policy in November 2019, combined with the impact from currency the net revenue growth would have been around 4 percentage points higher.

Other net revenue increased to SEK 40.5 million (29.7) in the first nine months driven by higher revenue share gained from Booztlet and also a slightly change in consumer behaviour, where more customers have chosen home delivery due to the coronavirus pandemic. Higher marketing income also contributed positively.

Gross profit

Third quarter

The gross profit increased with 47.5% to SEK 402.7 million (273.0) during the quarter. The gross margin increased to 42.8% (35.6%).

The increase was driven by a higher product margin supported by a high share of campaign stock and contractual improvements, including the change of agreement structure with a large brand. The higher share of campaign stock during the summer period has continued into the autumn in order to compensate for the COVID-19 related lower level of stock delivery from suppliers.

Year-to-date

For the first nine months the gross profit increased with 27.5% to SEK 1,156.3 million (907.0). The gross margin increased to 39.4% (38.2%).

The increase in the gross margin has been driven by a higher product margin supported by a high share of campaign stock and contractual improvements including the change of agreement structure with a large brand.

Operating costs

Third quarter

The fulfilment cost ratio decreased to 11.6% (14.4%). The decrease was driven by operational improvements and positive effects from our new internally developed robot management system. Further, a slight improvement in overall distribution costs from contractual improvements and optimized allocation between distributors impacted the fulfilment cost ratio positively. Also, lower returns had a positive impact on fulfilment costs.

The marketing cost ratio was unchanged at 11.4% (11.4%).

The admin & other cost ratio decreased to 11.5% (11.7%).

The adjusted admin & other cost ratio decreased to 9.1% (10.0%). The adjustment in the quarter consists of share-based payments related to the Group's LTI Programs of SEK -21.8 million (-13.2) related to social charges and IFRS 2 costs.

The decrease in the adjusted admin & other cost ratio was driven by leverage on staff costs as well as lower costs for the physical stores.

The depreciation cost ratio decreased to 3.3% (3.4%).

Year-to-date

For the first nine months the fulfilment cost ratio decreased to 11.9% (14.3%). The decrease was driven by operational improvements and positive effects from our new internally developed robot management system. Further, a slight improvement in overall distribution costs from contractual improvements and optimized allocation between distributors impacted the fulfilment cost ratio positively. Also, lower returns had a positive impact on fulfilment costs.

The marketing cost ratio decreased to 9.7% (10.0%). The decrease was driven by lower customer acquisition costs in the second quarter and general leverage on offline marketing spend.

The admin & other cost ratio decreased to 10.7% (11.1%) driven by general scale effects. It was negatively affected by changes in social charges and share-based compensation related to the Group's long-term incentive programs due to the appreciation of the share price.

The adjusted admin & other cost ratio decreased to 9.5% (10.4%). The adjustment for the period consists of share-based payments related to the Group's LTI Programs of SEK -34.3 million (-16.1) related to social charges and IFRS 2 costs.

The decrease in the adjusted admin & other cost ratio was driven by general scale effects as well as a lower loss in the physical stores following the relocation of the Beauty by Boozt store from Copenhagen to Malmö.

The depreciation cost ratio increased to 4.4% (3.3%). The increase is due to one-off costs including write-downs of SEK 34.2 million related to the closure of the Beauty by Boozt store in Copenhagen at the end of the first quarter, as well as a negative impact of SEK 5.5 million from the revaluation of the lease contract to include an 18-month penalty fee for using the exitclause.

The adjusted depreciation cost ratio was unchanged at 3.2% (3.2%), negatively impacted by the revaluation effect of SEK 5.5 million of the Beauty by Boozt store lease contract.

Adjusted EBIT

Third quarter

Adjusted EBIT amounted to SEK 69.7 million (-27.6) in the third quarter. The adjusted EBIT margin increased 11.0%- points to 7.4% (-3.6%) driven by the higher gross margin and the improved fulfilment cost ratio. Also, the improved adjusted admin & other cost ratio had a positive impact.

The adjustment in the quarter consists of share-based payments related to the Group's LTI Programs of SEK -21.8 million (-13.2) and constitute of social charges and IFRS 2 costs. Share-based payments fluctuates between periods since the probability of number of vested options under the program are changed, as well as the provision for social charges are determined by the company´s share price.

Year-to-date

Adjusted EBIT amounted to SEK 149.7 million (8.2) in the first nine months. The adjusted EBIT margin increased 4.8 percentage points to 5.1% (0.3%) driven by the higher gross margin as well as the improvement in all the operating cost ratios, especially the fulfilment cost ratio.

The adjustment in the first nine months consists of one-off costs of SEK 35.1 million related to the closing of the Beauty by Boozt store in Copenhagen. The one-off costs for closing the Beauty by Boozt store consist of a write-down of SEK 25.7 million related to the remaining right-of-use asset of the Beauty by Boozt store. The other part of the one-off costs relates to the closure of the store such as write-down of fixtures and inventory as well as terminated staff. The adjustment also consists of share-based payments related to the Group's LTI Programs of SEK -34.3 million (-16.1) and constitute of social charges and IFRS 2 costs.

For a reconciliation of adjusted EBIT, please see page 35.

EBIT

Third quarter

EBIT increased to SEK 47.9 million (-40.8) in the third quarter, while the EBIT margin increased 10.4 percentage points to 5.1% (-5.3%).

Negatively impacting EBIT compared to adjusted EBIT is a negative effect of SEK 21.8 million from share-based payments.

Year-to-date

EBIT increased to SEK 80.3 million (-12.8) in the first nine months, while the EBIT margin increased 3.3 percentage points to 2.7% (-0.5%).

Negatively impacting EBIT compared to adjusted EBIT are oneoff costs related to the closure of the Beauty by Boozt store in Copenhagen at the end of the first quarter of SEK 35.1 million, and a negative effect of SEK 34.3 million from share-based payments.

Financial items

Third quarter

The Group's financial costs amounted to SEK -3.7 million (-2.8) and financial income amounted to SEK 0.0 million (-0.0) in the quarter.

The financial items are attributable to interests on interest bearing loans and lease liabilities.

Year-to-date

The Group's financial costs amounted to SEK -8.9 million (-7.8) and financial income amounted to SEK 0.0 million (-0.0) in the first nine months.

Tax

Third quarter

Tax amounted to SEK -7.4 million compared to SEK 7.9 million in the third quarter last year. Tax for the period consisted of a decrease 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 effective tax rate for the period was 16.7 % (18.7 %), which was lower than the current tax rate for the parent company of 21.4 % and is mainly attributable to deductible temporary differences without corresponding capitalisation of deferred tax.

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

Year-to-date

Tax amounted to SEK -23.5 million compared to SEK -2.0 million in the first nine months last year. Year-to-date the effective tax rate was 33.0 % (9.9%), driven by the negative results made in the other segment for which no deferred tax asset is recognised. The group expect the effective tax rate to be around the local tax rate that applies for the parent company, given that the other segment perform around the break-even point.

The net result for the quarter totalled SEK 36.8 million (-35.6). Earnings per share before dilution amounted to SEK 0.64 (-0.62). Earnings per share after dilution amounted to SEK 0.61 (-0.62).

Year-to-date

The net result for the period totalled SEK 47.9 million (-22.7). Earnings per share before dilution amounted to SEK 0.83 (-0.40). Earnings per share after dilution amounted to SEK 0.81 (-0.40).

Working capital

The Group realised a net working capital of SEK 12.8 million (365.9) equivalent to 0.3% (11.2%) of the net revenue for the last twelve months. The decrease to 0.3% was primarily driven by higher accounts payable and a lower inventory level despite the growth. This is a consequence of the delays in delivery from suppliers as well as a higher share of campaign stock. As campaign stock are bought at high discount during the season, they have a positive impact on both inventory and accounts payables, due to the faster turnover for campaign stock. A lower return rate also has a positive impact as it decreases the inventory. Other liabilities had a positive timing effect of around SEK 60 million due to a postponed payment to a large payment provider.

The Group has accrued income of approximately SEK 28 million in reverse customs from returns in Norway. During the quarter SEK 9 million have been received.

Cash flow

Third quarter

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 160.2 million (-24.3) in the quarter. The improvement compared with last year was driven by improved operating profit and working capital. Cash flow from changes in working capital amounted to SEK 74.0 million (-18.8).

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -37.3 million (-73.0).

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 36.3 million (57.8) in the quarter and was attributable to a new financing agreement for the phase 4 automation expansion at the fulfilment centre as well as a share capital increase from exercise of the LTI Program 2015/2025.

Cash flow for the quarter amounted to SEK 159.1 million (-39.5). Cash and cash equivalents end of period amounted to SEK 1,058.5 million (296.0).

Year-to-date

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 647.0 million (20.6) in the first nine months. The improvement compared with last year was driven by improved profit and working capital. Cash flow from changes in working capital amounted to SEK 423.0 million (-53.0).

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -76.4 million (-113.4).

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 148.8 million (20.2) and was attributable to the new revolving credit facility agreement with Danske Bank, which has been repaid in October. This was partly offset by repayments related to the automation of the fulfilment centre.

Cash flow for the period amounted to SEK 719.5 million (-72.6).

Financial position

Total assets increased to SEK 2,992.4 million (2,440.3) driven by a higher cash position from the increased cash flow generation.

Fixed assets decreased to SEK 571.3 million (661.9). The decrease was driven by a lower right of use asset following the reassessment of the remaining lease period and future leasing costs of the Beauty by Boozt store in Copenhagen performed in the first quarter. This implied an adjustment of the right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability of approximately SEK 44.4 million. Following the revaluation of the contract an impairment test of the contract was performed leading to a write-down of the remaining value of the asset of SEK 25.7 million. The write-down of the right-of-use asset for the Beauty by Boozt store was partly offset by an increase in equipment from the phase 3 automation expansion in the fulfilment centre in the fourth quarter of 2019.

The Group's assets increased with SEK 9.9 million in goodwill from the acquisition of Touchlogic finalized in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Deferred tax assets decreased to SEK 23.4 million (71.4) and consist of capitalised tax losses carried forward.

Inventory decreased with 9% driven by a high sell-through of Spring/Summer 20 items and delays in the supplier delivery of Autumn/Winter 20 items.

Total equity and liabilities increased to SEK 2,992.4 million (2,440.3) driven primarily by the increase in current liabilities from higher account payables and access to the revolving credit facility of SEK 200 million. The revolving credit facility has been repaid in October.

Net revenue

Net revenue increased with 14.9% to SEK 793.9 million (691.2) in the quarter.

Net revenue growth was during the final months of the Spring/Summer season negatively impacted by lower stock availability due to the very strong sell-through in the second quarter. A very high level of campaign goods partly compensated for this. The Autumn/Winter season had a good start, despite the COVID-19 related delays in the supply chain leading to a lower stock availability for our customers.

Positively affecting net revenue growth was lower returns due to a different sales mix with relatively stronger growth in Men, Kids, Sport and Beauty, which all have a lower return rate than Women's fashion.

Customer satisfaction remained at a high level as shown by a Trustpilot score of 4.6 (4.6) and a Net Promoter Score of 72 (73).

For the first nine months net revenue increased with 15.8% to SEK 2,528.7 million (2,183.4).

Adjusted EBIT & EBIT

Adjusted EBIT increased to SEK 56.2 million (-32.0), while the adjusted EBIT margin increased to 7.1% (-4.6%).

The increase in adjusted EBIT was driven by a higher gross margin and lower operational costs.

The higher gross margin was driven by a higher product margin supported by a high share of campaign stock and contractual improvements including the change of agreement structure with a large brand. The higher share of campaign stock during the summer period has continued into autumn in order to compensate for the COVID-19 related lower level of stock delivery from suppliers.

Risks and uncertainties

Boozt has developed a risk management framework with the purpose to strengthen the structure of how risk management is carried out

throughout the Group. Identified risks are reviewed by the Board of Directors continuously. There is no recognisable risk for the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. All identified risks as well as the risk management process is described in the Group's Annual Report 2019 on pages 114-119.

As per September 30, 2020 the Group has evaluated the current risk picture with the following changes in the Group's top 20 risks compared to the Annual report 2019:

New risks

Acquisitions

Risk that an acquisition could lead to difficulties in integrating the acquired company which can disrupt the Group's current business activities and have a material negative effect on the Company's operations, operating profit, or financial position. The Group's assessment is that the probability of the risk occurring is 2, and that the negative impact of the risk, if it were to materialize, would be 3.

Expand the customer base and increase sales to existing customers

The expansion of customer base and increasing of sales to existing customers are dependent on several factors, such as customer behaviour, market demand, operational or business investment, increased investment in brand awareness and website traffic. Any failure in the efforts mentioned could be detrimental to the Group's ability to expand and might have an adverse impact of the Group's financial result. The Group's assessment is that the probability of the risk occurring is 2, and that the negative impact of the risk, if it were to materialize, would be 3.

Customer returns

Risk that a failure to meet customer expectations or a change in customer behaviour can lead to increased customer returns. This could decrease the Group's net sales, increase the Group's costs and result in a loss of existing or potential customers. The Group's assessment is that the probability of the risk occurring is 2, and that the negative impact of the risk, if it were to materialize, most likely would be 2.

Downgraded risks

The Group has downgraded the following risk from the top 20 risks that were included in the risk picture in the annual report 2019:

  • Vendor management risk of poor product quality
  • Flaws in pricing or other data elements of the web store risk of implementing wrong prices
  • Operational dependency on third party providers risk from dependency of third-party software's

Apart from the above new and downgraded risks, minor updates of the ratings of probability and impact has been made among the other risks.

Outlook for 2020

Net revenue growth is expected to be in the upper end of the 20- 25% range with an adjusted EBIT margin of 5.5-6.5%.

The outlook assumes constant currencies from the time of this announcement and for the remainder of the financial year.

Prior communication regarding outlook for 2020

The outlook for net revenue growth was upgraded to 20-25% on June 23. Following a better than expected development in the third quarter the outlook for adjusted EBIT margin was upgraded to 4.5- 5.5% on October 6.

In the trading update from October 6 a higher than normal uncertainty for the rest of the year was flagged because supplier delivery of Autumn/Winter goods was behind last year due to COVID-19 related delays and cancellations in the supply chain.

A high level of stock delivery combined with a high a level of inseason buying over the last month has reduced this uncertainty. As a result, the net revenue growth is now expected to be in the upper end of the 20-25% range. Consequently, and fuelled by current trading the adjusted EBIT margin is now expected to be in the range of 5.5-6.5% (previously 4.5-5.5%).

Medium-term financial ambitions through 2022

As the Group during 2020-2022 (3-5 years from IPO) is entering the medium term set out at the time of the listing of the Group in May 2017, the Board of Directors on February 21, 2020 adopted updated financial targets for the Group for the period up to and including 2022.

For more detailed information regarding medium-term financial ambitions through 2022, see the Q4 2019 report, published February 21, 2020 at www.booztgroup.com

Review Report

BOOZT AB (PUBL), CORP. ID: 556793-5183

Introduction

We have reviewed the interim report for Boozt AB (publ) for the period January 1 - September 30, 2020. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the 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 Information 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 has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Conclusion

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

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 has 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 depreciation cost ratio APM Depreciation cost less items affecting comparability 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, without the effect of
one-time events that affect the comparability.
Adjusted EBIT APM Profit/loss before interest, tax, share-based payments related
to employees and items affecting comparability, such as
restructuring costs in connection with the closures of the
Beauty by Boozt stores in Copenhagen, March 2020 and in
Roskilde, June 2019.
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,
return handling, indeliveries and all distribution costs

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

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.
Free Cash flow APM Cash flow from operating activities and Cash flow from
investing activities.
The aim is to show the cash flow generated in the Group
when excluding the cash flow impact from financing
activities.

return handling, in deliveries 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 revenue.
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 length 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

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.
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.
Explanation APM / IFRS Definition Rationale
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
behaviour 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 behaviour once they mature.
