Annual Results 2019
SHARP IMPACT OF EXCEPTIONAL OPERATIONS ON STOCK (Large CLEARANCE AND DEPRECIATION)
La Plaine Saint Denis, 12 March 2020 - Showroomprivé, a leading European online retailer specialising in fashion for the Digital Woman, has published its annual results for revenues for the year ending 31 December 2019.
Annual results significantly impacted by non-recurring items
Revenues were down -8.4% (-8.0% for online activities) due to:
A sluggish economic environment throughout the year;
strategic decisions aimed at restoring profitability and reducing inventory risk:
a deliberately more limited offering (more selectiveness in purchases, fewer firm purchases);
geographical streamlining involving the closure of several sites worldwide;
a considerable reduction in marketing expenditure, down 28% over the year.
An EBITDA[1] loss of ?31.4 million, in line with December 2019 expectations, including:
Stock operations for ?34 million, integrating ?21 million of exceptional depreciationsand massive inventory clearance in H2 at knock-down prices of unsold online items and returns, in a challenging B2B market conditions (wholesale);
+ ?3.1 million due to application of IFRS 16 on 1 January 2019.
Net result of -?70.5 million, which included:
-?21.6 million of non-recurring expenses, including restructuring charges, the winding up of a logistics project that has ceased to be of strategic value, an complementary price relating to the acquisition of SaldiIPrivati,consultancy fees, provisions for risks and various other expenses mainly without cash flow impact;
-?1.3 million of tax.
Financial structure maintained
Shareholders' equity of ?152 million;
Value of stock almost halved to ?48 million at 31 December 2019;
Gross cash and cash equivalents of ?49.0 million;
Net financial debt of ?29.3 million (of which ?23.3 million due to impact of application of IFRS 16);
Reclassification of all non-IFRS financial debt to short term. Advanced discussions with banks for the renewal of financing lines.
Path to improved EBITDA margin underlined in H2, despite a downturn of activity in Q4
Strong reduction in EBITDA loss between the first and second semester (-8.3 million euros vs -23.2 million euros);
EBITDA for the second half of the year at equilibrium excluding exceptional depreciations of stocks;
First effects of the reduction in operating costs.
Outlook
Actions initiated concerning product offering, designed to improve the business trend;
Continuation of the plan with the aim of reducing operating costs with a strong focus on logistics and G&A expenses;
New growth drivers developed, especially in SRP Media.
Primary statements at 31 December 2019 have been approved by the Board of Directors, which convened that day. The certification report will be issued once the procedures for publishing the annual financial report have been finalised. The group's consolidated accountsfor the financial year ended 31 December 2019 will be settled and available on the Showroomprivé website (https://www.showroomprivegroup.com/) by 30April 2020 at the latest.

Showroomprivé co-founders and co-CEOs Thierry Petit and David Dayan, said:
"2019 has been a difficult year and an intense one too. It was instrumental in shaping our Group for the coming years. After several years of strong growth, we had to make significant changes to the way the Group works - especially its purchasing model - to adapt to market changes.
So, we restructured much of our business and made changes to our inventory, which had grown too large and consequently had a very bad knock-on effect on our figures.
At the same time, we sought to optimise all processes and reduce costs. These plans are all well underway today. They've even improved EBITDA, which is now almost at equilibrium when excluding non-recurring inventory impairment in the second half of 2019, marking a clear improvement compared to the first half.
Our priority in 2020 will be to continue on this path to improved profitability by pursuing our optimisation actions with considerable potential identified in logistics management and inventory-streamlining.
One of our challenges will also be to make our internet business more stable, though this online business will still be in decline in the first half of this year. The commercial team will be strengthened, actions taken in regard to brands and new offers, will help us reach this goal, especially given that our customer base again proved resilient in 2019.
This roadmap will be pursued with support from our financial partners, with whom we are currently discussing bank financing with an extended maturity adapted to our trajectory.
We'll share a new progress report with you at the end of the first half of 2020."

* Restated for closures of Polish, German and multi-currency sites
The Group's 2019 revenues were down 8.4% at ?615.6 million, after this trend accelerated at the end of the half-year. A sluggish economic environment all year long explains this downturn, as do certain strategic decisions:
greater focus on higher-margin business and a gradual shift from the firm purchase model (20.3% of sales in 2019, down 5.3 points) towards conditional purchases and sales by dropshipping[2] , reducing de facto the number of products on offer;
Streamlining of worldwide business, involving the closure of certain country branches and sites, combined with a significant reduction in marketing investments, leading to a drop in online platform traffic.
In retail, internet sales in France were at ?506.8 million, down 7.2% over the year. They were not only affected by the factors previously mentioned but also by the absence of any major operation from the entity SRP Media. SRP Media's 2019 revenues, restated with these sales, are growing.
Worldwide, revenues were down 11.9%. Excluding the impact of the Polish, German and multi-currency site closures, they were down 8.0%. Saldi Privati posted a slight decline in 2019 due to greater selectiveness of product offering.
Other revenues, including non-internet sales were down 28.8% over the year. This drop was mainly due to a pricing effect as the Group had decided to massively run-down surplus inventories online (stock left over from difficulties in the handling stocks and unsold internet items) at slashed prices in a fiercely competitive physical clearance market. This strategy aims to clear stock with the purpose of reducing the related logistical costs.

*** IFRS
The optimisation of marketing expenditure combined with the sluggish economic context led to a 9% fall in the number of buyers over the year, which brought about an almost automatic 11% fall in the number of orders.
Still, the concentration of marketing efforts on the base of repeat buyers helped consolidate this base at 2.4 million people, in line with measures aimed at boosting engagement, loyalty and brand preference. This base now represents 76% of the total number of buyers, up 6.2 points over the year, and generated 85.5% of the Group's revenues.
Furthermore, the brand's appeal is intact, which helped the Group carry on widening its base of first-time buyers, with 0.8 million new buyers on board in 2019, while keeping revenues stable at ?176 per buyer.

*In accordance with AMF recommendations, the amortisation of intangible assets recognised during a business combination is presented under "underlying EBIT", as marketing costs.
In 2019, the gross margin of ?187.5 million fell to 30.5% of revenues (down 5.8 points), including:
stock operations for ?34 million, integrating ?21 million of exceptional depreciations (of which ?8 million in the second semester) and massive inventory clearance in H2 at knock-down prices of unsold online items and internet returns, in a challenging BtoB market conditions, in order to drastically reduce stock volumes;
the absence of major operations with a customer for the entity SRP Média.
Restated for these elements, the 2019 gross margin was 36.5% of total revenues, up 0.2 points in relation to 2018, in line with the strategy of greater selectiveness, the effects of which were remarkably clear in H2.The H2 margin was 37.2%, restated for exceptional elements, versus 35.5% in H1, i.e. +2.2 points.
The impact of the fall in gross margin was mitigated by a ?15.1 million reduction in operating costs,of which ?3.1 million from the application of IFRS 16, brought about by H2 savings of around ?18.2 million that largely offset the increase of around ?3.1 million in H1. This performance was illustrated by:
the considerable reduction in marketing expenditure, down ?9.8 million (-28.5%) in one year, with ?8.6 million less in H2 2019 compared to H2 2018, this spending now being focused on the loyal customer base;
logistics costs down ?5.5 million compared with 2018, but the share of which in revenues was up by 1.3 points due to logistical shortcomings in H1 and adjustments required for launching dropshipping. Considerable efforts were made in H2 with a ?8.2 million reduction compared to H2 2018 and a ?2.4 million reduction compared to H1 2019;
the ?0.3 million increase in expenditure on general and administrative expenses related to Beauteprivee and non-cash items (increase in projects depreciation). Still, the measures introduced in 2018 to streamline staff began to bear fruit in H2 2019,with a ?3.4 million drop compared to H1 2019.
As a result, the Group's 2019 EBITDA was -?31.4 million, with -?23.2 million in H1 and -?8.3 million in H2. EBITDA marked a clear improvement in the second part of the year, and emerged over this period at the equilibrium, restated from exceptional depreciation of inventories
Operating income before the cost of payments in shares and other operating income and expenses was -?46.8 million, compared with -?5.7 million at 31 December 2018.

Shareholder equity amounted to ?152.2 million at 31 December 2019, incorporating the year's net income of -?70.5 million.
The group's net financial debt reached ?29.4 million (6.0 million euros without IFRS 16), including a gross financial debt of ?78.4 million(55.1 million euros without IFRS 16) and an available cash flow of ?49 million.
Given the losses posted, the Group anticipate anautomatic breach of its banking agreements, the consequence of which was an accounts reclassification of all non-IFRS financial debt to under a year, being specified that the banks declined making the debt during the time of the negotiations.
The Group is currently at an advanced stage of discussions with its banking partners to renew its lines of credit, including a pushed-back maturity date in line with its medium-term financing needs.
CONTINUING STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS
Group stock halved
Logistical malfunctions adversely affected the firm's inventory and the rate at which it was sold. Remaining stock, especially that from inefficient handling of returns, generated many additional logistical costs and led to considerable depreciations in value. The Group has also decided to accelerate sales of unsold stock and returned items at knock down prices, against the backdrop of a persistently depressed wholesale market. In this way, at 31 December 2019, the Group held stock and outstanding items at a value of ?48 million, compared with ?99 million at 31 December 2018, which is in line with current market conditions.
Shifting towards a model of conditional purchases
To reduce inventory risk, the Group has continued to shift its model towards conditional purchases and "dropshipping". The portion of firm sales therefore fell 5.3 points compared to 2018, at 20.3% of revenues, but was offset by a 5.6points growth in dropshipping, at 13.8%. This shifting created very few new stocks.
Logistical tool internalised
The opening of a newmechanized warehouse in the Group in Q4 2019 should help boost efficiency in logistical processes and improve control of logistical flows. Efficiency gains generated by the Group's extra internal capacity will help decrease the cost per order on around 20% of shipments by 2020 and will make savings in EBITDA of around ?4 million over a full year.
Updates to the online platform
Throughout the year, the Group continued to develop by enhancing the services and features of its online retail platform. In 2019, the home page was redesigned, a feature for geolocating offers was rolled out, a notification centre was set up, a new information system for managing the whole travel business line was implemented and a supplier portal designed for dropshipping was introduced.
OUTLOOK
The SRP Group will start 2020 with the ambition of continuing the gradual upward trend and increase its EBITDA margin.
SRP will be pursuing its strategy of selectiveness in purchases, focusing on the most profitable business, and will continue to favour conditional purchases and dropshipping over firm purchases. To offset the mechanical decline in revenues brought about by this strategy, the Group has been pursuing actions to strengthen its offering and widen its number of brand partners by using its positions of strength and its strike force of ten million buyers. The Group also plans to speed up development of SRP Media with new data offers.
This strategy should carry on having a favourable impact on the gross margin, which should no longer be impacted, like in 2019, by major non-recurring inventory transactions.
Regarding operating expenses, optimisation actions will be pursued. In 2020, the Group will enjoy the full-year effect of the reduction in general and administrative expenses. Emphasis in 2020 will mainly be on streamlining logistics and warehousing, with a gradual reduction in the number of sites and partners and the rise of the Group's new logistics warehouse.
Thus, the implementation of this strategy in 2020 should enable the next phase of Group's developmentfrom 2021 to be tackled from a sound basis.
Today, the Group's activity is not directly impacted by the various disturbances linked to the covid-19 epidemic, except for the "travel" activity, which however represents a small part of its turnover (2.4 % of turnover in 2019). However, the Group remains attentive to the evolution of the situation in Italy and the evolution of the situation of the storage / destocking strategy of partner brands, particularly in the fashion field, given the likely delay in delivering new collections to their stores.
