REVENUE FOR THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2023 AND 3^RD QUARTER

• Over the first nine months of the year, Showroomprivé recorded a 8.7% growth in GMV and 4.6% in net revenue.
• Continued strong momentum in the international segment, with a growth of 9.6% for the first 9 months and 6.2% over the 3^rd quarter compared to the same period last year.
• In Q3, weak household consumption led to a downturn in the core business, partially offset by the contribution of the Group's growth levers, already identified: Travel & Leisure segment, the Marketplace, SRP Media and the International segment.
• Good performance of the Travel & Leisure segment and the Marketplace, with GMV growing by 17% and 74% respectively in the first nine months of 2023, and 23% and 112% respectively in Q3 2023.
• The Bradery, the fashion site targeting millennials, confirms its potential, recording 84% growth in the first nine months of 2023.
• Launch of a major Ad campaign to recruit new members and foster members' commitment. 
• Ongoing work to optimize cost structure, with further profitability gains expected by year-end.

La Plaine Saint Denis, France, October 19, 2023 – Showroomprivé (SRP Groupe), a European group specializing in smart shopping, has published its sales for the first nine months of its financial year and its 3^rd quarter ending September 30, 2023.

 
4.6% GROWTH OVER THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF THE YEAR, DESPITE A PERSISTENTLY DIFFICULT ENVIRONMENT

In a gloomy economic climate with limited visibility, Showroomprivé managed to maintain its growth momentum, recording net revenue of €471.0m, up 4.6% compared to the same period in 2022. Continued high inflation weighed on online sales, particularly in apparel (-8% in H1 2023[1]). Its increase at the end of the period accelerated the trend, as materialized by total spending on clothing-textiles down -2.3% in August according to Insee. Against this backdrop, Showroomprivé capitalized on its well-positioned offering, low-price DNA, revenue diversification and internationalization to reinforce its position on each of its markets. The successful integration of The Bradery has also extended the Group's growth potential, and the fashion site, targeting millenials, recorded strong revenue growth over the first nine months of the year, at 84% year-on-year.

David Dayan, Chairman and CEO of Showroomprivé, comments: "As the first nine months of 2023 ended, Showroomprivé has reaffirmed the strong resilience of its business model in an environment where consumption remains impacted by multiple exogenous shocks. This ability is the fruit of the measures implemented in previous years, which have enabled us to premiumize our offering and multiply our growth levers. Showroomprivé's teams are fully mobilized to pursue this work, and to continue to successfully complete the transforming projects that will enable the Group to consolidate its resilience in the face of the current context, while continuing to effectively capture growth opportunities. As a result, the Group will continue to develop market-leading offerings and leverage its capacity for innovation to multiply the sources of value creation, guided by the objective of sustainable, profitable growth despite the ups and downs of the economic climate".

GMV reached €705.8m, up +8.7% in the first nine months of 2022. The number of cumulative buyers exceeds 12.4 million, up 6.1% compared to the same period in 2022. The repeat buyer rate stabilizes at a high level of 80%.

The average basket is up €2.2, illustrating the trend towards the premiumization of the offer and bringing revenue per buyer to €172.4.

In Q3, GMV remained stable compared with Q3 2022, at €208.1 million.

SOLID PERFORMANCE OF GROWTH LEVERS IN Q3, DESPITE THE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT OF THE ECONOMIC SITUATION ON THE CORE BUSINESS

 Quarterly sales

In the 3^rd quarter, traditionally the lowest contributor to full year revenue, the downturn in consumer spending worsened, adversely impacting flash sales, the Group's core business. Given the weight of this business, Group revenue was also down, from €144.7m to €139.6m. Showroomprivé has, however, managed to mitigate the impact of this downturn, thanks to the contribution of growth levers that are bringing additional growth and margins. These efforts were complemented by the expansion of the offering to include new references, notably in the sport lifestyle segment, with well-known brands that have been very well received by members.

• The Travel & Leisure segment continued its rebound since the end of the confinements, posting growth of almost 23% in Q3, benefiting, in addition to its intrinsic good momentum, from tour operators' decision to run aggressive promotions with last-minute prices during the summer period.

• The Marketplace continues to gain momentum, recording GMV growth of 112%.

• In a very demanding environment, SRP Media posted growth of 28%, driven by retail media, which continues to attract advertisers, and whose offering has recently been strengthened by the Unlimitail solution launched in partnership with Carrefour.

• International revenues once again made a positive contribution, continuing their steady rise in the business mix, with particularly strong momentum in strategic regions.

LAUNCH OF THE NEW AD CAMPAIGN

As announced, and in line with the ACE roadmap, Showroomprivé has launched a major targeted advertising campaign to raise its awareness in France and resonate with its brand throughout the country, and particularly in major cities. The campaign, conducted with a holistic ROI approach, also aims at supporting the re-engagement of the member base.

OUTLOOK

In the coming quarters, Showroomprivé anticipates a steadily adverse market environment in the final months of the 2023 financial year. Against this backdrop, the Group intends to pursue the implementation of its ACE roadmap, which will result in increased vigilance over inventory levels and a determination to capitalize on its low-price DNA and growth levers to ensure profitable growth. The Group will continue its efforts to control its cost structure and optimize its logistics network, while reallocating its resources to accelerate the development of its high-potential activities and the management of its offering, particularly during the year-end period. Showroomprivé is therefore concentrating its efforts on effectively implementing these strategic measures, in order to maximize their impact from the fourth quarter of this year.
