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

Group Development

The continued execution of our Nordic Department Store strategy enabled us to continue the strong growth trajectory.

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 are compared with the corresponding year earlier period, meaning March 31, 2021. The first quarter refers to the period January - March 2022.

Net revenue

Net revenue in the first quarter increased 25.2% to SEK 1,424.0 million (1,137.4). Currency had a positive impact on net revenue growth in the first quarter of around 3.0 percentage points and relates primarily to the strengthening of DKK and NOK compared to the first quarter last year.

The year got off to a solid start with strong growth in January, but was negatively affected by the increased inflation and Russian invasion of Ukraine which impacted consumer engagement meaningfully in late February. During March we saw a recovery in performance and customer engagement.

The continued execution of our Nordic Department Store strategy enabled us to continue the strong growth trajectory from the last two years and management assesses that Boozt has gained significant market share in the first quarter of the year. Also, the return rate was on level with last year positively impacted by the continued growth in our adjacent categories.

The net revenue increase was supported by 21.4% growth for Boozt.com and 42.8% for Booztlet.com.

Other revenue (included in net revenue) increased to SEK 51.6 million (13.6) in the first quarter, mainly driven by the continued development of Boozt Media Partnership. Other revenue is revenue not directly related to product sales, such as income from Boozt Media Partnership, BooztPay and breakage from gift cards.

Net revenue geographical split

Net revenue in the Nordics increased 23.4% with the strongest performance in Norway and Finland. The continued efforts to grow Boozts presence outside the Nordics resulted in growth of 47.0% in Rest of Europe.

Change
Nordics 1,297.2 1,051.2 23.4%
Rest of Europe 126.7 86.2 47.0%
Total net revenue 1,424.0 1,137.4 25.2%

Gross profit

The gross profit increased 22.2% to SEK 559.6 million (458.0) in the quarter. The gross margin decreased to 39.3% (40.3).

The decrease was expected and mainly relates to the lower availability of campaign goods impacting the inventory mix negatively compared to the first quarter last year.

Operational costs

The fulfilment cost ratio increased to 12.6% (11.1) negatively impacted by extraordinary costs in January and February due to a significantly higher sick leave as a consequence of COVID-19. In March sick leave was back to normal levels positively impacting the cost ratio. In addition, the sudden increase in fuel prices impacted distribution costs negatively in the last part of the quarter.

The marketing cost ratio increased slightly compared to last year at 11.0% (10.6) with a continued high marketing spend to attract new customers along with further efforts to build Boozt as a household brand in the Nordics via offline marketing efforts.

BOOZT GROUP

BOOZT GROUP

The admin & other cost ratio increased to 12.2% (10.1). The increased cost base was impacted by the planned investments into strengthening the organisational structure and capacity during 2021 to support present and future market share gains as well as further business development.

The adjusted admin & other cost ratio increased to 11.3% (9.2).

The deprecation cost ratio increased to 3.8% (3.3) in line with expectations and impacted by the significant investments in 2021 and 2022 to increase our automated fulfilment capacity to support the continued strong growth and delivering best in class lead time to customers.

Adjusted EBIT

Adjusted EBIT amounted to SEK 8.8 million (68.7) in the first quarter. The adjusted EBIT margin decreased with 5.4 percentage points to 0.6% (6.0). The decrease is related to the significant investments done throughout 2021 to further strengthen organisational capacity, fulfilment automation and additional investments in offline marketing to build a strong nordic household brand.

Total adjustments in the quarter amounted to SEK 13.6 million (10.4). Adjustments include share-based payments of SEK 8.5 million and an adjustment of SEK 5.0 million for non-recurring items related to the Rosemunde transaction and subsequent reorganisation of management.

Share-based payments fluctuate between periods since the probability of the number of vested options under the program is dynamic, as well as the provision for social charges are determined by the company's share price.

For a reconciliation of adjusted EBIT, please visit the Group's website www.booztgroup. com/reports-and-presentations, "Q1 Report 2022" – "Key financials".

EBIT

EBIT decreased to SEK -4.8 million (58.3) in the first quarter, while the EBIT margin decreased 5.5 percentage points to -0.3% (5.1).

Negatively impacting EBIT compared to adjusted EBIT in the period was a cost of SEK 8.5 million from share-based payments and SEK 5.0 million for non-recurring items related to the Rosemunde transaction and subsequent reorganisation of management.

Financial items

The Group's financial costs amounted to SEK -4.0 million (-3.5) and are mainly attributable to interests on loan and lease liabilities. Net financial items amounted to SEK -4.0 million (-3.5).

Tax

Tax for the period amounted to SEK 1.2 million (-11,9). The Group's effective tax for the period was 13.8% (21.7).

Earnings for the period

Earnings for the period totalled SEK -7.6 million (42.9). Earnings per share before dilution amounted to SEK -0.11 (0.67). Earnings per share after dilution amounted to SEK -0.11 (0.64).

Working capital

The Group realised a net working capital of SEK 471.7 million (370.5) equivalent to 7.7% (7.8) of the net revenue for the last twelve months. The inventory position has grown in line with the business and the delivery of the Spring/Summer 2022 season has proceeded according to plan providing us with a confident stock position going into the second quarter of 2022.

Net debt / net cash

The Group's net cash (-) decreased to SEK -197.7 million (-761.7). The decrease was driven by increased loans to financing the expansions of AutoStore and the acquisition of Rosemunde.

Cash position

Cash and cash equivalents decreased to SEK 1,118.9 million (1,422.2), driven by cash flow from investing activities.

Lease liabilities

Lease liabilities (current and non-current) were in line with last year and amounted to SEK 472.2 million (472.5). Repayment of lease liabilities has been offset by new contracts for expanding the warehouse and headquarter.

Interest-bearing liabilities

Interest-bearing liabilities (current and non-current) have increased to SEK 448.9 million (188). The increase was attributable to new loans for financing the expansion phases of AutoStore at the Fulfilment Centre.

Non-current assets

Non-current assets increased to SEK 1,654.1 million (882.3). The increase compared to last year was mainly driven by trademark and goodwill deriving from the acquisition of Rosemunde and new AutoStore expansions at the fulfilment centre, which has effectively increased our capacity by more than 40%.

Equity

Equity attributable to the shareholders of the parent company increased to SEK 2,266.1 (1,958.6) million. Since the Group utilised its option to acquire the remaining part of the shares in Everyday Luxury Feeling A/S (Rosemunde) during the quarter, the Group no longer recognised any non-controlling interest.

Cash flow

Cash flow for the period amounted to SEK -445.5 million (-292.6), driven by cash flow from investing activites.

Cash flow from operations

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK -141.9 million (-193.4) in the quarter. Compared to last year, the Group entered the period with a stronger and higher stock position, why the negative cash flow from changes in working capital was lower compared to last year.

Cash flow from investments

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -360.1 million (-42.5). During the quarter the Group has utilised its option to acquire the remaining shares from the minority in Rosemunde. The Group has also finalised the combined fifth/sixth expansion phase of AutoStore and invested further in the seventh expansion phase.

Cash flow from financing

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 56.5 million (-56.7). High upfront repayment on loans on finalised expansion phases has been offset by new loans for the seventh expansion phase of AutoStore.

Development in the quarter

Environmental

  • Boozt has confirmed to participate and answer the full CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) Questionnaire
  • Boozt has committed to set near- and long-term company-wide emission reductions in line with science-based net-zero with the SBTi*
  • We continue working with distributors to collect Scope 3 Downstream Transportation and Distribution emissions data on a quarterly basis, enabling us to calculate our CO 2e intensity per order. In 2022, we extended the measurement of the transportation emissions from deliveries and returns. The CO 2e intensity per order in Q1 21 refers to the Nordics while the CO 2e intensity per order in Q1 22 includes all shipping countries, covering 99% of the total order volume and increasing transparency. Considering only the CO 2e intensity per order in the Nordics representing 88% of volume handled, the impact has decreased to 0.27 kg in Q1 22 (compared to 0.29 kg in Q1 21).

Social

  • Increased communication of our Made With Care category as a response to growing consumer interest leading to a higher Share of Made With Care Orders
  • Development of Made With Care criteria for additional categories such as Footwear (published in Q2) and Home (published in Q3)

• As members of Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) Retailers Roundtable, Boozt together with About You, and Zalando, have joined efforts in the Higg BRM Collective Action to support their SAC and non-SAC brand-partners in completing the Higg Brand and Retail Module (BRM). The data will be used to understand where our industry's challenges are, measure brand performance and supply chain impacts, share trends, and collaborate with brand partners to drive significant improvements.

Governance

  • Focus on the Internal reporting process and external reporting with the first quarterly disclosure of ESG related KPIs
  • Reporting standards and transparency with GRI Index and UNGC and increased transparency by reporting to CDP, Nasdaq ESG Data Portal, and Higg BRM

*The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a global body enabling businesses to set ambitious emissions reductions targets in line with the latest climate science. It is focused on accelerating companies across the world to halve emissions before 2030 and achieve net-zero emissions before 2050.

Net revenue

Net revenue increased 21.4% to SEK 1,138.8 million (937.7) in the quarter. The net revenue growth was positively impacted by currency effects from the strengthening of DKK and NOK to SEK compared to the first quarter last year.

New customer intake continued at a high pace as an increasing number of people are shopping online which contributed to the strong growth. Positively affecting net revenue growth was the strong performance in Home, Beauty and Sport. The return rate developed positively in the quarter with the continued growth of the adjacent categories.

Average order value increased 2.9% to SEK 838 (815). The continued execution of the Nordic Department Store strategy resulted in a further diversification of sales benefiting the number of items per basket and a structurally lower return rate driven largely by continued efforts with the Fair Use initiative. True frequency developed positively to 6.9 (6.7) with cohorts displaying encouraging behaviour and similar buying patterns as our historic cohorts from before the COVID-19 pandemic. Customer satisfaction remained at a high level as shown by a Trustpilot score of 4.5 (4.6) and a Net Promoter Score of 74 (75).

Adjusted EBIT and EBIT

Adjusted EBIT decreased to SEK 15.7 million (53.6) in the quarter, while the adjusted EBIT margin decreased to 1.4% (5.7).

The decrease in adjusted EBIT margin is related to a normalisation of the product margin which was positively affected by high availability of campaign stock last year combined with higher promotional activity in the first quarter of 2022.

In addition, and due to the extraordinary growth in the last 24 months, planned investments in staff have been made to accommodate future growth and market share gains.

The adjustment in the quarter amounted to SEK 8.5 million (10.4) and consisted fully of share-based payments.

EBIT decreased to SEK 3.8 million (44.9) for the quarter.

Net revenue

Net revenue increased 42.8% to SEK 285.3 million (199.8) in the quarter. Booztlet continued to accelerate investments to further build the brand in Nordics, as well as outside Nordics and has increased offline marketing efforts compared to last year. On a two-year stack Booztlet grew 186% in the first quarter. Booztlet inventory continues to be impacted by the limited access to campaign goods in the market from the second half of 2021 to the beginning of 2022.

The market for a Nordic fashion outlet remains very attractive and the ambition for Booztlet is to continue the high growth trajectory. To support this development, Booztlet is building further organisational capabilities and capacity to have the right and enough resources to be able to secure and handle the stock and to further build the brand.

Growth in the Nordics amounted to 41.4% mainly driven by Finland and Norway. Rest of Europe experienced a growth of 53.5% to SEK 33.8 million. Average order value increased significantly during the first quarter and reached a record high SEK 810 (705) driven mainly by an increased number of items per basket.

Adjusted EBIT and EBIT

Adjusted EBIT decreased to SEK -6.9 million (15.1) in the quarter, while the adjusted EBIT margin decreased to -3,0% (7.6).

The decrease in adjusted EBIT margin is mainly related to the product margin which was negatively affected by low availability of campaign stock in the second half of 2021 and the beginning of 2022. Looking ahead in 2022 it is expected that the availability of campaign stock will increase.

Booztlet continued strengthening the organisation with additional people to secure new customer intake and realising future potential, resulting in a temporary lower profitability which is expected to improve in the coming quarters.

The adjustment in the quarter amounted to SEK 1.7 million (1.8) and consisted fully of share-based payments.

EBIT decreased to SEK -8.6 million (13.3) for the quarter and the EBIT margin decreased to -3.0% (6.7).

Significant events after the reporting date

Prolongation of revolving credit facility

The Group has prolonged its existing revolving credit facility agreement with Danske Bank for 1 year. The original agreement was made for 3 years and would have expired in February 2023. Due to the uncertainties on the global market, the Group recognised the need of having access to a long-term financing solution as a complement to its already strong cash position. The credit facility amounts to SEK 200 million and will expire in February 2024. In addition, the Group has access to overdraft facilities of around SEK 85 million.

Annual General Meeting 2022

The annual general meeting was held on April 27, 2022, by advance voting (postal vote). The Board of Directors proposes that no dividends are paid to the shareholders and that the Company's profit for 2021 are carried forward. The AGM will also decide on implementation of a new long-term incentive program (LTIP 2022).

BOOZT GROUP

INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT Q1 2022

Employees

Number of employees was 1,380 (864) at the end of the period equivalent to an increase of 59.7 % which is mainly due to further insourcing of warehouse staff decreasing the share of external consultants for the daily operations. In addition, the group continues to invest in further strengthening the organisation to continue the significant market share gains and have added staff accordingly. The average number of employees was 1,280 (853) for the quarter equivalent to an increase of 50%.

Seasonal variances

Seasonal variances affect the Group since purchases are cyclical and inventories are built up before each season. However, each quarter is comparable between years. Traditionally the fourth quarter has the highest net revenue, whereas the first quarter has the lowest. Inventory levels in the industry can be affected by an early or late start to the season impacting the promotional activities needed to clear inventory. To illustrate the long-term development trend the Group reports rolling twelve months' figures, where applicable.

Outlook for 2022

The Group expects a net revenue growth for 2022 in the range of 20-25% and an adjusted EBIT between SEK 365-420 million.

The net revenue growth is supported by market share gains, a continued high online penetration and an improvement of the historically low consumer sentiment during March and April 2022.

Outlook remains unchanged although an increasingly challenging external environment introduces a greater degree of risk and uncertainties than normal. The current market situation provides a higher likelihood of achieving the bottom end of the guidance in terms of net revenue growth and adjusted EBIT.

Medium-term financial targets through 2023

In connection with the financial report for Q4 2020, the Board of Directors adopted updated financial targets for the medium term.

NET REVENUE GROWTH The Group targets to outgrow the Nordic online
market significantly to expand market share
ADJUSTED EBIT MARGIN The Group targets an adjusted EBIT margin
between 5-7% during the period

The priority is a continued high investment in growth as well as a continued strengthening of the customer experience, while maintaining a solid adjusted EBIT margin driven by the high average order value and local scale leadership in the Nordics.

INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT Q1 2022

PAGE – 26

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

The quarterly report contains certain performance measures that are not defined in accordance with IFRS (alternative performance measures). The performance measures included are used by investors, securities analysts and other stakeholders as additional measures of performance and financial position. The Group's alternative performance measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measurements presented by other companies and have certain limitations as analytical tools. They should therefore not be considered separately from, or as a substitute for, the Group's financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Definitions, calculations, and rationale behind the use of included alternative performance measures are available on the Group's website www.booztgroup.com/reports-and-presentations, "Q1 Report 2022" – "Key financials".
