Baltika auditeerimata majandustulemused, teine kvartal ja kuus kuud 2020

Message

Baltika  Grupp lõpetas teise kvartali  3 965 tuhande euro suuruse puhaskasumiga,
mis    sisaldab   4 620 tuhande   euro   ulatuses   19. juunil   2020 kinnitatud
saneerimiskavast  tulenevat  võlausaldajate  nõuete  ümberkujundamisest tekkinud
äritulu   ja  1 320 tuhande  euro  ulatuses  2019. a  lõpu  seisuga  moodustatud
tootmishoonete  rendilepingutest tuleneva vara kasutusõiguse allahindluse tagasi
keeramist. Eelmise  aasta  sama  perioodi  kahjum  oli  616 tuhat  eurot.  Teise
kvartali  regulaarsed  majandustulemused  on  tugevalt  mõjutatud  ülemaailmsest
COVID-19 pandeemiast.  Kõige teravamalt  avaldas COVID-19 teises  kvartalis mõju
Baltika  Grupi tegevusele  Eestis, kus  valitsuse otsusega  avati poed 11. mail,
Leedus  avati poed 25. aprillist  ja Lätis olid  kuni 11. maini kauplused avatud
lühendatud tööajaga nädala sees ja suletud nädalavahetusel.

Grupi  teise kvartali  müügitulu oli  3 707 tuhat eurot, vähenedes 65% võrreldes
eelmise  aasta sama  perioodiga. Väga  tugevat müügitulemust  näitas E-pood, kus
müügitulu  COVID-19 kriisi  tingimustes  kasvas  41% võrreldes  eelmise aastaga.
Kõige  tugevama tulemuse E-poes  tegid brändidest Monton  ja Ivo Nikkolo ja seda
just   maikuus,  kus  tehti  väga  mitmeid  erikampaaniaid  ja  -pakkumisi,  mis
meelitasid  kliente  ostma.  Teise  kvartali  jaeäri  müügitulu vähenes 68% ning
äriklientide  müük  langes  84%, mis  on  seotud  strateegilise otsusega väljuda
sellest müügikanalist.

Kvartali   brutokasum  oli  1 822 tuhat  eurot,  vähenedes  eelmise  aasta  sama
perioodiga  võrreldes 3 926 tuhande  euro võrra  (2 kv 2019: 5 748 tuhat eurot).
Ettevõtte   brutokasumi  marginaal  oli  teises  kvartalis  49,2%, mis  on  5,7
protsendipunkti  võrra madalam eelmise  aasta teise kvartali  marginaalist (2 kv
2019: 54,9%). Brutokasumi  vähenemine on tingitud järsust müügitulu vähenemisest
ning   brutomarginaali  kukkumine  on  seotud  COVID-19 ajal  tehtud  sügavatest
allahindluse pakkumistest.

Grupi  turustus-  ja  üldhalduskulud  olid  teises  kvartalis 3 524 tuhat eurot,
vähenedes  40% ehk 2 389 tuhat  eurot võrreldes  eelmise aasta  sama perioodiga.
Turustus-  ja  üldhalduskulude  järjepidev  ning  oluline vähendamine on üks osa
Baltika   Grupi  käimasolevast  restruktureerimisplaanist  ning  COVID-19 kriisi
jooksul   on   ettevõte   astunud   radikaalseid  samme,  et  võrreldes  esialgu
planeerituga   püsikulusid  kiirendatud  tempos  ja  proportsionaalselt  müükide
kaotusega vähendada.

Esimesel  poolaastal vähenes  Grupi müügitulu  50% võrreldes eelmise  aasta sama
perioodiga  ja  oli  9 844 tuhat  eurot.  Jaemüük  vähenes  52% ja  äriklientide
müügitulu  80%, samal ajal  e-poe müügitulu  kasvas 15%. Grupp lõpetas poolaasta
1 491 tuhande  euro  suuruse  puhaskasumiga,  mis  sisaldab  4 620 tuhande  euro
ulatuses  19. juunil  2020 kinnitatud  saneerimiskavast tulenevat võlausaldajate
nõuete  ümberkujundamisest  tekkinud  äritulu   ja  1 320 tuhande  euro ulatuses
2019. a  lõpu seisuga moodustatud  tootmishoonete rendilepingutest tuleneva vara
kasutusõiguse allahindluse tagasi keeramist. Eelmise aasta võrreldav tulemus oli
puhaskahjum  2 058 tuhat eurot.  Poolaasta nõrk  regulaarne äritulemus on seotud
ülemaailmse   COVID-19 pandeemia  välja  kuulutamisega  ning  sellest  tulenenud
poodide sulgemisega ligi kaheks kuuks.

Baltika  turustus- ja  üldhalduskulud olid  esimese poolaasta kokkuvõttes 8 516
tuhat eurot vähenedes 3 024 tuhat eurot võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga.
1 100 tuhat  eurot  ehk  36% kulude  vähenemisest  moodustas  Baltika peakontori
regulaarsete   püsikulude   vähendus.   Märtsis   2019 avalikustatud   ettevõtte
restruktureerimisplaani  üks eesmärke  oli vähendada  2020. aasta lõpuks Baltika
Grupi  püsikulusid 2 miljoni  euro võrra.  Restruktureerimistegevustega alustati
aprill-mai  ja  2019. aasta  lõpuks  oli  ca  50% eesmärgist  (900  tuhat eurot)
saavutatud  ning 2020. a  esimese poolaasta  lõpuks on  ülejäänud 50% eesmärgist
edukalt saavutatud.

Title

Baltika’s Unaudited Financial Results, Second Quarter and 6 Months of 2020

Message

Baltika  Group  ended  the  second  quarter  with a net profit of 3,965 thousand
euros,  which  includes  operating  income  in  amount  of  4,620 thousand euros
connected   with  restructuring  of  creditors'  claims  in  accordance  to  the
restructuring  plan approved on 19 June 2020 and  the reversal of the impairment
of  the right  to use  the property  arising from  the lease  agreements for the
production  buildings in the amount of 1,320 thousand euros, which was formed in
the  end of 2019. The loss for the same period last year was 616 thousand euros.
The  recurring  financial  results  of  the  second  quarter  have been strongly
affected  by the global  COVID-19 pandemic. In the  second quarter, COVID-19 had
the strongest impact on Baltika Group's operations in Estonia, where stores were
opened  by a government  decision on 11 May,  in Lithuania from  25 April and in
Latvia until 11 May stores were open part-time and closed during weekends.

The  Group's  sales  revenue  for  the  second quarter was 3,707 thousand euros,
decreasing  by 65% compared to  the same period  last year. The  E-shop showed a
very  strong sales  result, where  the sales  revenue in  the conditions  of the
COVID-19 crisis  increased by 41% compared  to the previous  year. The strongest
results  in the E-shop were  made by Monton and  Ivo Nikkolo, especially in May,
where  a  number  of  special  campaigns  and  offers were made, which attracted
customers  to buy. Retail sales revenue in  the second quarter decreased by 68%
and  sales  to  business  customers  decreased  by  84%, which is related to the
strategic decision to exit this sales channel.

The  gross profit for the quarter was 1,822 thousand euros, decreasing by 3,926
thousand euros compared to the same period of the previous year (Q2 2019: 5,748
thousand  euros).  The  company's  gross  profit  margin was 49.2% in the second
quarter,  which is  5.7 percentage points  lower than  the margin  of the second
quarter  of the previous year (Q2  2019: 54.9%). The decrease in gross profit is
driven  by the sharp decrease in sales  revenue and the decrease in gross margin
is related to the deep discount offers made during COVID-19 crises.

The  Group's distribution and administrative expenses in the second quarter were
3,524 thousand euros, decreasing by 40% i.e 2,389 thousand euros compared to the
same  period last year. Consistent and significant reduction in distribution and
administrative expenses is a part of Baltika Group's ongoing restructuring plan,
and  during the  COVID-19 crisis the  company has  taken radical steps to reduce
fixed costs at an accelerated tempo and in proportion with the lost sales.

In  the first  half of  the year,  the Group's  sales revenue  decreased by 50%
compared  to the  same period  last year  and amounted  to 9,844 thousand euros.
Retail  sales decreased by 52% and sales  revenue of business customers by 80%,
while  sales revenue of the e-store increased  by 15%. The Group ended the half-
year  with a net profit of 1,491 thousand euros, which includes operating income
in  amount of  4,620 thousand euros  connected with  restructuring of creditors'
claims  in accordance to the restructuring plan approved on 19 June 2020 and the
reversal  of the impairment  of the right  to use the  property arising from the
lease  agreements for the  production buildings in  the amount of 1,320 thousand
euros,  which  was  formed  in  the  end  of  2019. The comparable result of the
previous  year  was  a  net  loss  of  2,058 thousand  euros. The weak recurring
financial results for the first half of the year is related to the global COVID-
19 pandemic and the consequent closure of stores for almost two months.

Baltika's distribution and administrative expenses in the first half of the year
totalled  8,516 thousand euros,  decreasing by  3,024 thousand euros compared to
the  same period  last year.  1,100 thousand euros  i.e 36% of  the decrease was
driven by the decrease of recurring fixed costs of Baltika's head office. One of
the  goals of  the company's  restructuring plan  announced in March 2019 was to
reduce  Baltika Group's  fixed costs  by 2 million  euros by  the end  of 2020.
Restructuring  activities started in April-May and by the end of 2019 about 50%
of the target (900 thousand euros) was achieved and by the end of the first half
of 2020 the remaining 50% of the target has been successfully achieved.
