Consolidated Net Working Capital
| € mln |
31 October '15 | 31 October '14 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Accounts Receivable | 103.1 | 80.3 | 22.8 |
| Inventory | 311.0 | 318.3 | (7.3) |
| Accounts Payable | (390.8) | (391.0) | 0.2 |
| Net Working Capital |
23.3 | 7.6 | 15.7 |
- The current working capital structure improved vs. October last year and is coherent with the seasonal trends of the business:
- Accounts receivables grew in connection with the growth of the franchise network (with new openings also requiring an initial investment in merchandise by the franchisees) and substantially stable DSO
- Inventory decreased notwithstanding the store expansion and the strengthening of USD (c. €10m upward impact on inventory valuation)
- Accounts payables were substantially stable with slight decline in DPO, mirroring inventory reduction.
6 Capex
- Capex (€50.8m in 9M15) include:
- new openings (c. 49% of total capex)
- refurbishment and maintenance of the existing network (c. 18%)
- IT and special projects (c.15%), mainly related to operational projects
- automated logistics equipment (c. 15%), mainly related to a planned project dedicated to support the replenishment activities (increasing speed, efficiency and capacity); the project will be completed in 2016 with further €4m capex
- Capex for the LED project (c. 3%) entirely managed through vendor financing
7 Consolidated Cash Flow Statement
| € mln |
9M15 | |
|---|---|---|
| EBITDA | 118.2 | |
| Change in Net Working Capital | (37.1) | |
| Change in other assets (liabilities) | 8.6 | |
| Capex | (50.8) | |
| Operating Cash Flow | 38.8 | |
| Financial Expenses | (17.3) | |
| TFR (Employees' leaving indemnity) | (2.0) | |
| Taxes | (17.9) | |

| Net Cash Flow (before MtM derivatives and amortized costs) |
341.2 | |
| Change in MtM derivatives and amortized cost | (21.3) | |
| Cumulated Net Cash Flow | 319.9 |
- Cash generation in line with the usual seasonality of the business, i.e. with cash flow break even achieved at the end of 3Q (excluding the impact of IPO, MtM derivative valuation and amortised cost accounting treatment)
- This result has been achieved notwithstanding i) higher receivables related to franchising new openings (franchising seasonality has a strong impact in this time of the year) and ii) "one-off" capex related to logistics
8 Net Debt and Leverage
| € mln |
31 October '15 | 31 January '15 |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| Net Debt | 304.5 | 624.4 | |
| EBITDA LTM | 173.5 | 157.1 | |
| Leverage on EBITDA | 1.8x | 4.0x | |
- During 2015 EBITDA leverage declined by 2.2x vs. 31 January 2015 mainly due to the proceeds from the IPO.
- Residual net debt post IPO has been entirely refinanced at more favorable interest rates:
- The average interest rate in 9M15 was 3.50% vs. 5.47% in 9M14
- 9M15 cost still does not reflect in full the benefit of the refinancing (only c.8 months experienced lower rates). The average interest rate in 3Q15 was 3.05%.
9 Outlook
- Revenues, EBITDA and EBIT continue growing in line with management expectations
- Positive results achieved in pilot projects regarding new product categories, in particular fitness and teenager segment, now to be extended to a broader portion of the network
- Further operational improvements expected in FY16 (i.e. further roll-out of post-distribution and implementation of planning by item/store/week starting from the A/W season 2016)
- Network expansion is progressing and well on track
- An additional 20 stores have opened since 31-Oct-2015, of which 7 were full format DOS
- Strong visibility on FY16 opening pipeline, with many contracts already identified
- Continued focus also on international expansion in selected markets, both via full format as well as via kids stores
- Purchases in USD for 2016 hedged at 1.14 vs. Euro
