Boozt AB's Half year report, January 1 - June 30 2023
Financial highligths
- Net revenue increased 11% to SEK 1,872 million (Q2 2023: 1,687), driven by both Boozt.com (+10%) and Booztlet.com (+13%). Active customers increased with 11% combined for the two sites
- Gross margin was 41.9%, down from 42.3% in Q2 2023
- Adjusted EBIT was SEK 92 million (86) corresponding to an adjusted EBIT margin of 4.9% (5.1%)
- EBIT was SEK 79 (66) corresponding to an EBIT margin of 4.2% (3.9%)
- Profit for the period was SEK 59 million (66)
- Free cash flow increased to SEK 90 million (-5)
- Boozt initiated share repurchase program with the intent to buy back own share for up to SEK 200 million
- The Norwegian Court of appeal ruled in favour of Boozt in dispute with the Norwegian Tax Administration. The verdict can be appealed
- Outlook for 2024 narrowed to reflect the year-to-date performance as well as the continuously challenging trading environment. Boozt now expects revenue growth in the range of 7-11% (previously 5-15%) and an adjusted EBIT margin of 5.2-5.7% (previously 5.2-6.0%).
Co-Founder & CEO Hermann Haraldsson says: “The market for Fashion and Lifestyle remains challenging, but we assess that we continued to take market shares in the quarter, as we stay focused and execute on our strategy to become the leading Nordic department store. As weather became better in the region, our growth in the second quarter improved and I am again pleased to see that we still attract a lot of new customers, despite a muted consumer environment. During the quarter, almost 300,000 new customers bought at our sites. Profitability remains solid, however, slightly down in the quarter compared with last year. Still, I believe that we are well on track to reach our target of an adjusted EBIT margin of 10% in five years' time.”
