  • Increase in marketing % driven by investment (~$1.7m) in national TV campaign to drive brand awareness

  • Reduction in fixed cost % drove operating leverage. The full costs of people investments made in H1 (3D/AR/B2B/Tech) will be realised in H2 and this will be reflected in EBITDA % and $

  • Cash flow positive half $47.7m was driven by:

  • the positive EBITDA result

  • benefits from the group’s negative working capital model, offset by investment (~$13m) in private label inventory

  • • capital raise undertaken in early July (~$40m)

  • Inventory metrics (WOC/ageing profile) tracking better than target ranges

  • Flexible balance sheet position (no debt) to take advantage of organic and inorganic opportunities

Trading update & outlook

  • The second half has started strongly, with January’s revenue growth tracking in excess of 100%.

  • We continue to experience strong tailwinds, including:

  • the ongoing adoption of online shopping due to structural and demographic shifts

  • an acceleration of these trends due to COVID-19

  • an increase in discretionary income due to travel restrictions

  • the continued recovery of the housing market and unemployment levels

  • We will continue our reinvestment strategy, investing into growth areas of the business to cement our online market leadership and drive market share.

Revenue growth is based on checkout revenue which is pre accounting adjustments (deferred revenue, refund provision) and is pre-auditor review.
