The Rip Curl World Surf League (WSL) Finals

The all new E7 Heatseeker

For the first time in history, the WSL world title was decided in a one-day competition, with the top 5 men and women going head to head at Trestles, in surfing’s “Superbowl” sponsorship. It was broadcast live, replayed On Demand and showcased on linear TV networks like Foxsports and ABC in the USA. The Rip Curl WSL Finals included both Olympic Gold Medallists, and 7 out of 10 in the field competed at the Tokyo Games, taking the mainstream media momentum into the event

Combining the best of Rip Curl’s stretch and warmth technologies, this is the single best wetsuit Rip Curl has ever produced. The new “Imagined By The Best” campaign starring 3 X World Champion Mick Fanning and his Australian protégé Molly Picklum is set to launch the E7 Heatseeker across all digital, outdoor, retail and broadcast channels in the Northern Hemisphere this September

Sales

  • Outperforming acquisition expectations

  • Oboz sales above last year with a strong recovery from COVID closures. Also driven by successful product innovation strategy and diversification of customer base

  • Gross margin impacted by significant one-off air freight costs (c. $1.5m) to support key customer deliveries of winter seasonal styles in 1H FY21, plus increased ocean freight costs due to supply chain congestion in 2H FY21

  • Gross margin to normalise to historical levels when global supply chain congestion and related shipping rates come back into line

  • Forward order book at highest level ever, allowing investment to support future growth

Trading update and outlook

Trading update

  • Same store sales (incl. online) for the six full weeks to 12 September 2021 were significantly impacted by ongoing Australasian COVID lockdowns: • Rip Curl -12.8% overall, +3.6% adjusted for COVID lockdowns[1]

  • Kathmandu -19.9% overall, +18.3% adjusted for COVID lockdowns[1]

  • Online sales growth to date +25.9% (Rip Curl +16.8%, Kathmandu +33.7%)

  • Kathmandu sales strong in regions less affected by COVID restrictions

  • COVID restrictions impacting suppliers in Asia. The Group is actively managing supply chain to minimise impact where possible

  • Impact of freight costs on gross margin expected to be offset by improved foreign exchange rates

  • First half FY22 profit expected to be below first half FY21 due to ongoing COVID impacts

  • Both Rip Curl and Oboz wholesale order books are significantly above pre-COVID levels

Outlook

  • All brands are well positioned to capitalise on growing participation in outdoor, beach and surfing activities

  • Capitalise on opportunities from the global COVID vaccination rollout:

  • Easing COVID restrictions in key growth markets: Europe (Rip Curl and Kathmandu) and North America (Rip Curl and Oboz)

  • International travel restrictions expected to ease as FY22 progresses, benefiting the Kathmandu brand and emerging markets for Rip Curl
