Q1 2023 Financial Update

Q1 2023 financial update

1 Q1 2023 topline
Group GMV at EUR 118m at -8% yoy
in Q1 2023 impacted by baseline effects from

Westwing remains significantly larger compared to 2019:
Revenue is up by 67%

saving targets

Costs
are already down by EUR 29m
on an annualized basis versus the committed
EUR 30m of gross savings
(compared to Q1 2022 baseline)
3 Turnaround on
profitability and
Cash Flow

Strong margins and cost saving initiatives
result in EUR 5m Adj. EBITDA
at 4.9% Adj. EBITDA margin in Q1 2023 (EUR +7m vs Q1 2022)

EUR 10m positive Free Cash Flow –
an improvement of EUR +27m vs Q1 2022; return to
negative Net Working Capital at EUR -5m

growth) and
Adj. EBITDA of EUR +4 to +13m (+1% to +3% margin)

1 Westwing remains significantly larger compared to pre-pandemic FY 2019 baseline

Q1 2023 Group Revenue is up by +67% vs Q1 2019 1

Note: All figures unaudited.

2 We are delivering on our cost saving targets across G&A, Marketing, and CAPEX

We are on track to deliver our committed gross savings of EUR 30m vs Q1 2022 baseline

Marketing savings are mainly achieved through roughly equal parts of personnel cost savings and reduced performance marketing expenditures

G&A and CAPEX savings are mainly achieved through a reduction in headcount as well as operational efficiencies across the organization

3 We returned to negative net working capital per end of Q1 2023

EUR -30m Decisive Net Working Capital management

  • Continued reduction of inventory overstock at limited margin impact
  • Supplier negotiations and seasonal effects resulted in improved trade payables
  • Trade financing solution with an impact of EUR 7m in Q1 2023

Net Working Capital is expected to remain on healthy levels in FY 2023, yet there will be negative seasonal effects in Q2 and Q3 2023

Operating profit and successful net working capital management result in EUR 10m Free Cash Flow in Q1 2023, an improvement of EUR 27m vs Q1 2022

Note: Free Cash Flow is not part of capital market guidance for FY 2023. Figures in this section are presented on an adjusted basis. For details regarding the exact definition of the alternative performance Adjusted EBITDA, the company refers to the corresponding definitions in its Q1 2023 report.
