TCM Group Management’s review

Interim report Q3 2020 (July 1 - September 30)

(All figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period in 2019)

Revenue growth of 4.2% in Q3 2020. Financial outlook reiterated.

CEO Torben Paulin:

"In the third quarter of 2020 TCM Group managed to grow revenue by 4.2% in a kitchen market influenced by the Covid-19 pandemic. In the quarter the main market for TCM Group, Denmark, has shown more resilience than the other Scandinavian markets.

At the moment we are in the midst of the second wave of the virus outbreak, and I am very proud of all of our employees and business partners. Due to them and their hard work we have been able to operate with a minimum of disruption in this extraordinary situation.

In the quarter we continued to support sales by increased promotional activities and sales campaigns. These efforts have strengthened revenue, but also had a diluting impact on our gross margin. In addition our cost base has been burdened by additional costs related to Covid-19 related precautions in the company. As a result EBIT in the third quarter stood at DKK 32 million, a decline of DKK 2 million compared to the same quarter last year, approximately on par with our expectations.

Based on an assumption that Denmark will not be subject to more drastic lockdown measures than the ones we have seen recently in Q4, we reiterate our full-year financial outlook: revenue in the range DKK 980-1,020 million and EBIT in a range of DKK 135-145 million."

Financial highlights Q3

  • Revenue DKK 247.4 million (DKK 237.5 million) corresponding to a revenue growth of 4.2%.
  • Adjusted EBITDA DKK 37.6 million (DKK 42.5 million). Adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.2% (17.9%). The decrease in adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily driven by a lower gross margin primarily impacted by sales campaigns and costs related to Covid-19 precautions.
  • EBIT down DKK 2.0 million to DKK 32.1 million (DKK 34.1 million), corresponding to an EBIT margin of 13.0% (14.4%).

  • Free cash flow was DKK 25.0 million (DKK 39.5 million).

TCM Group

Business review

In Q3 2020 revenue increased by 4.2% to DKK 247.4 million (DKK 237.5 million).

TCM Group’s primary market is Denmark which contributed with 94% of Group revenue in Q3 2020. The kitchen market in Denmark has up to this point shown robust resilience, and demand has kept up despite the increased macro economic uncertainty following the virus outbreak. Revenue in Denmark was up 5.6% driven by growth within the branded stores including Nettoline and our e-commerce platform kitchn.dk as well as a higher revenue from 3rd party products.

Our Norwegian business has been softer in the quarter due to a weaker market situation, however our long term potential is unchanged, and we remain committed to fully exploit the potential in the Norwegian market.

To stimulate demand, TCM Group temporarily initiated sales campaigns in the early stage of the virus outbreak and supported the store network to a greater extent than normal. The sales campaigns had a negative impact on margin in the quarter. Furthermore, additional costs related to Covid-19 precautions and a higher share of low margin revenue from 3rd party products had a negative impact on gross margin. As a result of the above, gross margin fell 2.3%-points, from 28.1% to 25.8%. Going forward the Covid-19 precautions will continue to impact, whereas the negative impact from the sales campaigns ended in Q3.

At the end of Q3 2020, the total number of Svane and Tvis branded stores was 68 (67). During Q3 the Tvis Køkkener store in Grenaa was closed, and staff and activities were relocated to the Tvis Køkkener store in Aarhus. We continue our focus to add new branded stores to our business primarily new Svane Køkkenet stores in Norway and new Tvis Køkkener and Nettoline stores in Denmark. Nettoline has converted most of its Danish dealers into the Nettoline store concept, and therefore we now consider these stores to be branded in line with the Svane and Tvis branded stores. At the end of Q3 2020, Nettoline had 20 branded stores in Denmark, bringing the total number of branded stores in TCM Group to 88.

Svane Køkkenet has a dedicated focus on innovation and is continuously introducing new products and designs. During September Svane Køkkenet launched the new S12 RAW Limited edition kitchen line. S12 RAW Limited edition is based on uncompromising design with fully veneered frame and wooden fronts with a raw and dark look.

Total number of employees at the end of Q3 2020 was 501 (505).

Forward looking statements

This interim report contains statements relating to the future, including statements regarding TCM Group’s future operating results, financial position, cash flows, business strategy and plans for the future. The statements are based on management’s reasonable expectations and forecasts at the time of the disclosure of the report.

Significant risks in the Group

TCM Group is exposed to strategic, operating and financial risks, which are described in the management review and note 2 of the 2019 Annual Report prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The Covid-19 situation and the possible risk of this leading to a macro economic recession is a significant risk to impact TCM Group’s financial results.

Revenue in Denmark in Q3 2020 was up 5.6% to DKK 232.2 million (DKK 219.8 million) driven by growth within the branded stores including Nettoline and our e-commerce platform kitchn.dk as well as a higher revenue from 3rd party products.

Operating expenses in Q3 2020 were DKK 31.9 million (DKK 29.7 million). Operating expenses represented 12.9% of revenue in Q3 2020 (12.5%).

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA in Q3 2020 was DKK 37.6 million (DKK 42.5 million), corresponding to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 15.2% (17.9%). The decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to the lower gross profit.

EBIT

TCM Group

EBIT for the first nine months of 2020 decreased to DKK 101.3 million (DKK 107.2 million). The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in EBITDA. Depreciations and amortizations increased by DKK 0.4 million compared to the first nine months of 2019.

Net profit

Net profit for the first nine months of 2020 decreased to DKK 77.1 million (DKK 81.5 million). The decrease was primarily due to an increase in EBIT. Change in the financial income and expenses had a positive impact on the net profit of DKK 0.3 million due to lower debt.

Free cash flow and cash conversion

Free cash flow in Q3 2020 was DKK 25.0 million (DKK 39.5 million). The decrease in cash flow in Q3 2020 compared to Q3 2019 was primarily due to change in net working capital of negative DKK 6.6 million (DKK 4.1 million).
