Definitions of key performance indicators

  • 1) We define Site Visits as the number of series of page requests from the same device and source in the measurement period and include visits to our online magazine. A visit is considered ended when no requests have been recorded in more than 30 minutes. The number of site visits depends on a number of factors including the availability of the products we offer, the level and effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and the popularity of our online shops. Measured by Google Analytics.
  • 2) We define Mobile Visit Share (in % of Site Visits) as the number of visits via mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) to our mobile optimized websites divided by the total number of Site Visits in the measurement period. We have excluded visits to our online magazine. Until the end of 2016 we have also excluded visits from China because the most common online translation services on which most of our customers who ordered in our German shop for delivery to China relied to translate our website content were not able to do so from their mobile devices, and therefore very few of such customers ordered from their mobile devices. As we have started a customized website for our Chinese customers in December 2016 we include visits from China from Q1 2017 onwards. Measured by Google Analytics.
  • 3) We define Mobile Orders (in % of Number of Orders) as the number of orders via mobile devices to our mobile optimized websites divided by the total Number of Orders in the measurement period. From Q1 2017 onwards we include orders from China. Measured by Google Analytics.
  • 4) We define Active Customers as the number of unique customers placing at least one order in one of our shops in the 12 months preceding the end of the measurement period, irrespective of returns.
  • 5) We define Number of Orders as the number of customer orders placed in the measurement period irrespective of returns. An order is counted on the day the customer places the order. Orders placed and orders delivered may differ due to orders that are in transit at the end of the measurement period or have been cancelled. Every order which has been placed, but for which the products in the order have not been shipped (e.g., the products are not available or the customer cancels the order), is considered ''cancelled''. Cancelled orders are not included in the Number of Orders.
  • 6) We define Average Orders per Active Customer as Number of Orders in the last twelve months divided by the number of Active Customers.
  • 7) We define Orders from Repeat Customers as the number of orders from customers who have placed at least one previous order, irrespective of returns.
  • 8) We define Share of Repeat Customer Orders as the number of orders from Repeat Customers divided by the Number of Orders in the last twelve months.
  • 9) We define Gross Order Intake as the aggregate Euro amount of customer orders placed in the measurement period minus cancellations. The Euro amount includes value added tax and excludes marketing rebates.
  • 10) We define Average Order Value as Gross Order Intake divided by the Number of Orders in the measurement period.
  • 11) We define Returns (in % of Gross Revenues from Orders (until Q1 2017 in % of Net Merchandise Value)) as the returned amount in Euro divided by Gross Revenues from Orders in the measurement period. From Q2 2016 onwards including Bebitus and Feedo returns. Gross Revenues from Orders are defined as the total aggregated Euro amount spent by our customers minus cancellations but irrespective of returns. The Euro amount does not include value added tax. As the Gross Revenues from Orders do not exclude returns and include all marketing rebates it is more reasonable to use this KPI for the return rate calculation than the Net Merchandise Value. The change of the calculation logic has no material impact on the reported return rate. Therefore, the calculation has been changed accordingly from Q2 2017 onwards.
