APMs are used by Europris for annual and periodic financial reporting to provide a better understanding of the group's financial performance. APMs are considered as well-know and frequently used by users of the financial statements and are also applied in internal reporting and by management to measure operating performance.
Sales is the same as the IFRS definition of total operating income.
Gross profit is defined as Total operating income minus the cost of goods sold (COGS). The gross profit represents revenue that the group retains after incurring the direct costs associated with the purchase of the goods. Gross margin is defined as gross profit divided by total revenue and is useful for benchmarking direct costs associated with the purchase of the goods vs total revenues.
Operating expenses (Opex) is the sum of employee benefits expense and other operating expenses. It is useful to look at cost of these two components combined, as they compose a large part of the fixed operating costs. The Opexto-sales ratio divides the Opex by Total operating income and is useful for benchmarking this cost base vs the development in sales.
EBITDA is earnings before interests, tax, depreciation of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets and amortisation of other intangibles. EBITDA is a well-known and widely used term among users of the financial statements and is useful when evaluating operational efficiency on a more variable cost basis as they exclude amortisation and depreciation expense related to capital expenditure. EBITDA margin is EBITDA divided by Total operating income and is useful for benchmarking this profitability parameter vs the development in sales.
EBIT is earnings before interest and taxes and is the same as the IFRS definition of operating profit. EBIT is a wellknown and widely used term among the users of the financial statements and is useful when evaluating operational profitability. EBIT margin is EBIT divided by Total operating income, and thus the same as Operating profit divided by Total operating income.
Net change in working capital is the sum of change in inventories and trade receivables and change in other receivables less the sum of change in accounts payable and other current liabilities. Net change in working capital is a well-known and widely used term among the users of the financial statements and is useful for measuring the group's liquidity, operational efficiency and short-term financial conditions.
Capital expenditure (Capex) is the sum of purchases of fixed assets and intangible assets as used in the cash flow. Capex is a well-known and widely used term among the users of the financial statements and is a useful measure of investments made in the operations when evaluating the capital intensity.
Financial debt is the sum of borrowings and lease liabilities. Financial debt is useful to see total debt as defined by IFRS. Net debt is financial debt less cash.
Cash and liquidity reserves is defined as available cash plus available liquidity through overdraft and credit facilities. This measure is useful to see total funds available short term.
Total chain sales are sales from all chain stores, that is both directly operated and franchise stores. This KPI is an important measure of the performance of the total Europris chain and considered useful in order to understand the development of the entire chain, regardless of ownership structure of stores.
The Norway segment includes Europris and the pure play companies Lekekassen and Strikkemekka.
The Sweden segment includes the ÖoB chain.
Pure play includes the Lekekassen group and the Strikkemekka group.
Directly operated store means a store owned and directly operated by the group.
Franchise store means a store operated by a franchisee under a franchise agreement with the group.
Chain means the sum of all stores under the brand name Europris and ÖoB. Europris has both directly operated stores and franchise stores while ÖoB only has directly operated stores.
LFL growth is defined as the growth in total chain sales for stores that have been open for every month of both the previous and the current calendar year. LFL is calculated in constant currency.
Organic growth is defined as the growth excluding any significant structural changes (acquisitions or sale of companies).
Constant currency is the exchange rate which the group uses to eliminate the effect of exchange rates fluctuations when calculating financial performance numbers.
