CEO's statement
Paul Fischbein, President and CEO comments: "CDON Group reports positive operating results in all four segments for the fourth quarter. Three of our four segments show sales growth, in particular Sports & Health which maintains a high growth rate of 36 per cent in the quarter, combined with stable margins.
The Group reported an operating profit, excluding non-recurring items, near breakeven for the full year. This was despite the weak start to the year, clearance of overstock at CDON.com during the second half of the year amounting to SEK 20 million, as well as extensive investments in organisational reinforcements. Improved cash flow and strongly reduced inventory levels are further recipes to our efforts. The strong financial position and healthy inventory ensures the Group's settings for an increased focus on growth-oriented initiatives and investments in 2014.
The Group will increase its investments in growth in 2014, mainly in the Fashion and Sport & Health segments. The initiatives, which are in line with the Group's long-term strategy, has already begun through the recently announced geographical expansion of Nelly.com.
The transformation of CDON.com continues according to plan, and in the fourth quarter, CDON.com Marketplace was launched. This was an important strategic step in the transformation of CDON.com to become a leading full-range e-commerce store."
Forward-looking statement
The Group's strategy for 2014 is to, in a balanced way, continue to deliver sales growth and increased market shares, especially in the segments Sports & Health and Fashion. Alongside continued sales growth, the Group will continue to focus on underlying earnings improvement.
CDON.com will during 2014 continue to invest in the transformation to become the leading full-range e-commerce store which gradually will offset the continued reduction of sales of media related products.
The goal for the Fashion segment in 2014 is continued growth, particularly through investments in geographical expansion, however in a balanced way.

Result summary
The Group's net sales, excluding divested operations, decreased by 4.6% in the fourth quarter but increased by 1.3% for the full year. Excluding currency effects and divested operations, sales decreased by 2.1% in the fourth quarter and increased by 2.9% for the full year. The Sports & Health segment continued to show strong sales growth in the fourth quarter and increased market shares. The Fashion and Home & Garden segments also reported growth in sales during the quarter. The Group's internet retailers attracted 73.8 (75.0) million visitors in the fourth quarter and generated 2.4 (2.5) million orders during the period. The Group's gross margin, excluding non-recurring items and divested operations, was 14.5% (12.9%) in the fourth quarter and 14.2% (14.0%) for the full year. The improved margin in the fourth quarter is primarily attributable to the Fashion segment and a significant boost in efficiency within logistics operations. The improvement was mainly offset by the dropping share of sales in CDON.com's media-related products and the completed clearance sale of computer products in the fourth quarter, with a negative impact on the result totalling approximately SEK 7 million.
The Group's operating profit, excluding divested operations and non-recurring items, amounted to SEK 26.6 (6.7) million for the quarter and SEK -1.8 (16.7) million for the full year. Including non-recurring items and divested operations, operating profit amounted to SEK 26.6 (-110.7) million for the quarter and SEK -48.0 (-173.9) million for the full year. The Group's financial net amounted to SEK -6.2 (-8.1) million for the quarter, which primarily reflected interest expenses relating to the Group's convertible bond and currency effects. For the full year, financial net totalled SEK -34.1 (-27.3) million, which also includes interest expenses relating to the credit facility and overdraft facility.
Group pre-tax income amounted to SEK 20.4 (-118.8) million in the fourth quarter and SEK -82.1 (-201.2) million for the full year. In the fourth quarter the Group reported a tax expense of SEK -4.7 (income 28.4) million and an income of SEK 14.8 (49.4) million for the full year, as a result of capitalised loss carry forwards.
The Group's net income therefore amounted to SEK 15.8 (-90.4) million in the fourth quarter and SEK -67.3 (-151.7) million for the full year.
Group earnings per share before and after dilution totalled SEK 0.15 (-1.17) in the fourth quarter and SEK -0.74 (-1.91) for the full year.
Cash flow and financial position
Consolidated cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 29.1 (-15.8) million in the fourth quarter and SEK -54.5 (-97.5) million for the full year. The cash flow impact of changes in working capital amounted to SEK 109.0 (149.2) million for the quarter and SEK -84.0 (-135.1) million for the full year. The change compared with the previous year is primarily attributable to lower cash flow from changes in operating liabilities, which was countered by positive cash flow from less working capital tied up in inventory, but also to a reduction in operating receivables. Group cash flow from operations therefore amounted to SEK 138.0 (133.4) million for the quarter and SEK -138.6 (-232.6) million for the full year.
Group cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -15.1 (-17.6) million in the fourth quarter and SEK -36.4 (-57.3) million for the full year. Investments in the business in the fourth quarter were largely attributable to the development of the Group's platforms and logistics operations.
Group cash flow to financing activities amounted to SEK 0.7 (0.0) million in the quarter and SEK 336.7 (0.0) million for the full year. The figure for the full year reflects the issue carried out in the second quarter and restructuring of the Group's non-current debt.
The Group's cash and cash equivalents increased by SEK 123.7 million in the fourth quarter. Including translation differences, cash and cash equivalents increased to SEK 288.9 (126.1) million from SEK 163.8 million at the beginning of the quarter. For the full year, cash and cash equivalents rose by SEK 161.8 (-289.9) million.
At the end of the period the Group had a net cash position of SEK 57.2 (net debt position 246.8) million compared with a net debt position of SEK 65.6 million in the third quarter. The reduction compared with the beginning of the year reflects the issue carried out in the second quarter and restructuring of the Group's noncurrent debt.
Group total assets on the reporting date grew by 5% to SEK 1,761.6 (1,682.8) million compared with the previous year. Inventory levels decreased by SEK 44 million during the quarter to SEK 525.2 (609.7) million. Capital employed amounted to SEK 633.7 million. The Group's rolling twelve month return on capital employed was negative, which is mainly due to non-recurring items arising in the second quarter.
Equity increased during the quarter to SEK 690.9 (266.4) million from SEK 673.3 million at the end of the third quarter. The increase in the fourth quarter is primarily attributable to earnings for the period. Equity increased compared with the start of the year primarily as a result of the rights issue carried out in the second quarter, which was partly offset by earnings for the year and the acquisition of the remaining minority stake in NLY Scandinavia AB.

* Excluding non-recurring items, which are detailed on page 5
The Entertainment segment comprises the online stores CDON.com and Lekmer.com. Segment sales decreased by 14% in the fourth quarter and by 10% for the full year. Sales excluding currency effects decreased by 11% in the fourth quarter and by 8% for the full year. The segment accounted for 53% (60%) of total Group sales in the fourth quarter and 49% (55%) of sales for the full year.
CDON.com is a leading Nordic online retailer with a strong market position. From initially only selling media products, the product offering has gradually been broadened and today includes a wide range, featuring everything from consumer electronics to sports & leisure, clothing & shoes and toys. During the fourth quarter, CDON.com took an important step in broadening its approach by becoming an online shopping mall via the launch of external stores on CDON.com. During the year, CDON.com Marketplace generated SEK 98 million in sales for sister companies and external stores. Sales of other products besides media comprised 51% of the segment's total sales in the fourth quarter.
Lekmer.com continued to show solid growth and capitalised on the ongoing transition from bricks-and-mortar retail to e-commerce within the children's goods and toy sector. Sales of children's clothing and prams/car seats displayed considerable growth in the fourth quarter, as did toys, which is the largest product category in the store.
Operating profit was affected by reduced volumes in the media-related product categories, which have a higher margin compared with the segment's other categories, and the completion of the previously announced clearance sale aimed at reducing working capital tied up in computers in inventory. The negative impact on the result from the clearance sale amounted to approximately SEK 7 million in the fourth quarter. The result was also affected by costs relating to the change in CEO for CDON.com, which took place during the quarter.

The return rate during the year was 33%. There was a slight negative impact on Nelly's sales at the beginning of the quarter as a result of the warm autumn, but sales recovered towards the end of the quarter as Nelly´s Gross sales grew with 16% in December compared with December last year.
In the fourth quarter, Nelly.com launched a French language version of Nelly.com and a global English language version, which exposed Nelly to an additional 60 markets, including the US and Australia. The fourth quarter also saw the launch of the shopping club Members.com in the Netherlands, which is the store's first market outside the Nordic countries.
During the year Nelly has focussed on strengthening its organisation and enhancing its processes, which has resulted in a considerable improvement in operating profit.

The segment accounted for 12% (8%) of total Group sales in the fourth quarter and 15% (11%) of sales for the full year.
Growth in sales continued during the fourth quarter. The segment's strategy of establishing a strong local presence with a locally adapted product range, services in local languages and local marketing activities has helped strengthen market positions on all markets.
The broadening of private label products continued in the period. Sales of private label products such as Star Nutrition, Chained Nutrition and SmartSupps accounted for 45% of total sales for the full year.
The segment's operating profit increased by 14% in the fourth quarter. The operating margin dropped slightly in the fourth quarter and for the full year as a result of continued investments in new markets and increased customer service levels.

The increase in sales in the segment was fuelled by growth within both the white goods store Tretti and interior design store Room21. Orders via CDON.com Marketplace also contributed to the higher sales figures.
The segment's operating profit grew in both periods compared with the previous year, mainly as a result of an improved gross margin.
