BALTIKA AUDITEERIMATA MAJANDUSTULEMUSED, TEINE KVARTAL JA 6 KUUD 2021

Message

Baltika Grupp lõpetas teise kvartali 37 tuhande euro suuruse puhaskasumiga.
Eelmise aasta sama perioodi kasum oli 3 965 tuhat eurot, kuid see sisaldas
ühekordset saneerimise mõju summas 5 905 tuhat eurot. Seega tähendab tulemus
1 977 tuhande euro suurust paranemist võrreldes eelmise aasta tavapärase
äritulemusega.

Grupi  teise kvartali  müügitulu oli  3 207 tuhat eurot, vähenedes 13% võrreldes
eelmise  aasta sama perioodiga. Jaemüügi  vähenemise peamiseks põhjuseks oli 33
kahjumliku  kaupluse sulgemine  kogu Baltikumis  ning COVID-19 teise laine tõttu
kehtestatud piirangud, mis kehtisid peamiselt aprillis ja mais.

Teises kvartalis leevendati COVID-19 piiranguid. Eesti kauplused olid täielikult
avatud  alates 3. maist, Leedu kauplused alates  29. maist ja Läti kauplused 3.
juunist  2021. E-kaubanduse müügitulu vähenes 2021. aasta teises kvartalis 41%,
st. 270 tuhande euro võrra, mis tulenes peamiselt üleminekust tavapoodide suunas
seoses  piirangute leevendamisega  teise kvartali  teises pooles. Seega näitavad
tulemused   aasta   lõikes   endiselt   väga  tugevat  müügitulemust  (+16%)  ja
brutokasumit   (+32%)  vaatamata  ettevõtte  strateegilisele  otsusele  lõpetada
Montoni ja Baltmani kaubamärkide müük.

Kvartali  brutokasum  oli  1 656 tuhat  eurot,  vähenedes 166 tuhande euro võrra
võrreldes  eelmise aasta  sama perioodiga  (II kvartal 2020: 1 822 tuhat eurot),
mis  on kooskõlas  müügimahu vähenemisega.  Ettevõtte brutokasumi  marginaal oli
teises  kvartalis  51,6%, mis  on  2,4 protsendipunkti  kõrgem kui eelmise aasta
teise  kvartali marginaal (II  kvartal 2020: 49,2%). Brutokasumi marginaali kasv
on  tingitud Grupi  strateegilisest otsusest  keskenduda täishinnaga  müügile ja
anda vähem allahindlusi, et vastata enam uue kliendisegmendi ootustele.

Grupi  turustus-  ja  üldhalduskulud  olid  teises  kvartalis 2 036 tuhat eurot,
vähenedes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga võrreldes 42% ehk 1 489 tuhat eurot. Üle
60% kulude   langusest   on   seotud  jaemüügikulude  vähendamisega.  Peakontori
turustus-  ja üldhalduskulud  vähenesid eelmise  aasta sama perioodiga võrreldes
veel  310 tuhat  eurot,  kuna  peamised  muudatused  peakontoris toimusid pärast
2020. aasta teist kvartalit.

Esimesel  poolaastal  vähenes  grupi  müügitulu  võrreldes  eelmise  aasta  sama
perioodiga  46% ja ulatus 5 339 tuhande euroni. Jaemüügi müügitulu vähenes 54%,
samas kui e-poe müügitulu kasvas 16%. Grupp lõpetas poolaasta 1 618 tuhande euro
suuruse  puhaskahjumiga. Esimese poolaasta kahjum on  tingitud kõigist COVID-19
piirangutest  Balti riikides alates  1.jaanuarist 2021, lisaks sellele, et aasta
nõrgim  kvartal jaekaubanduses on alati esimene kvartal. Seetõttu kõigist COVID-
19 tingitud  raskustest, mis mõjutasid tugevalt kogu Balti jaemüügiäri, on grupp
näidanud  tugevat ja vastupidavat uut ärimudelit  ning oli teises kvartalis juba
kasumlik.

Teine  kvartal 2021. aastal  näitas Baltika  Grupi tegevuse ümberkorraldamist ja
loodetavasti ka COVID-19 piirangute lõppu. Baltika Grupi fookus teises kvartalis
2021. aastal  oli kogu kaupluste  kulude optimeerimine, sulgedes mittekasumlikud
poed  kogu Baltikumis ning hoides  sellega tegevuskulusid kontrolli all. Sellega
seoses  lõpetati lao rendileping ning  sõlmiti leping professionaalse laoteenuse
pakkujaga, mis toob kulude kokkuhoiu vastavalt mahtudele.

Kvartal  lõppes kasumiga  ja on  tugevas finantsseisundis  ning seega võib alata
järgmine  periood,  mil  keskendutakse  peamiselt  taaslansseeritava Ivo Nikkolo
kaubamärgile.

Title

Baltika’s Unaudited Financial Results, Second Quarter and 12 Months of 2021

Message

Baltika Group ended the second quarter with a net profit of 37 thousand euros.
The profit for the same period last year was 3,965 thousand euros but this
included one-off reorganisation impact in the amount 5 905 thousand euros.
Therefore the result signifies an improvement of 1,977 thousand euros compared
to last year's regular business result.

The  Group's  sales  revenue  for  the  second quarter was 3,207 thousand euros,
decreasing  by 13% compared to the  same period last year.  The main reasons for
the decrease in retail sales were represented by the closures of 33 unprofitable
stores all over the Baltics as well as by the negative impact of the second wave
of COVID-19 with all restrictions in place, particularly and mostly during April
and May.

The  precisely  second  wave  of  COVID-19 restrictions  was eased in the second
quarter  as  Estonian  stores  were  fully  open from 3(rd) May, Lithuanian from
29(th) May,  and  Latvian  stores  from  3(rd) June 2021. E-com sales revenue in
second quarter 2021 decreased by 41% for approximately 270 thousand euro, mostly
driven  by the logical  shift towards off-line  stores due to  the easing of all
restrictions  during 2(nd) half of second quarter.   However, results on year to
date are still showing a very strong performance +16% in sales and +32% in gross
profit,  despite the Company's  strategic decision of  discontinuing with Monton
and Baltman brands.

The  gross profit for  the quarter was  1,656 thousand euros, decreasing by 166
thousand euros compared to the same period of the previous year (Q2 2020: 1,822
thousand  euros) in  line with  the sales  decrease. The  company's gross profit
margin  was 51.6% in the  second quarter, which  is 2.4 percentage points higher
than the margin of the second quarter of the previous year (Q2 2020: 49.2%). The
increase  in  gross  profit  margin  is  a  consequence of the Group's strategic
decision  to be more focused on full price sales with a full review of the whole
product  offer (clothes  and accessories)  to be  more aligned with new customer
needs.

The  Group's distribution and administrative expenses in the second quarter were
2,036 thousand  euros, decreasing by 42% i.e.,  1,489 thousand euros compared to
the  same period  last year.  Over 60% of  the decrease  in expense relates to a
reduction  in a retail business. The head-office distribution and administrative
expense  decreased a further 310 thousand euros compared to the same period last
year as main changes in head-office took place after second quarter 2020.

In  the first  half of  the year,  the Group's  sales revenue  decreased by 46%
compared  to the  same period  last year  and amounted  to 5,339 thousand euros.
Retail  sales decreased by 54%, while sales  revenue of the e-store increased by
16%. The  Group ended the half-year with a net loss of 1,618 thousand euros. The
comparable result of the previous year was a net profit of 1,491 thousand euros,
including  the one-off positive  impact of the  reorganisation process of 5,905
thousand  euro. Group half year performance was  a loss mostly driven and caused
by  all  COVID-19 restrictions  in  all  Baltic  countries already in place from
1(st) of  January 2021 and also  due to the  fact that first  quarter has always
been  relatively  weak  in  a  retail  business. Despite all difficulties due to
COVID-19 restrictions  which  have  heavily  affected  the  whole  Baltic retail
business  during  the  second  quarter,  the  Group  has shown a very strong and
resilient  new business model capable to deliver  a profit already by the end of
second quarter.

Second  quarter of 2021 marks the end  of Baltika Group´s operational turnaround
and  hopefully also  of COVID-19 restrictions.  Balika Group's  focus during the
second  quarter of  2021 was the  one to  optimise even  further the whole store
network  with some important unprofitable store  closures across the Baltics and
to  keep under strict control all operating expenses. Meanwhile new contract for
a professional warehouse service provider correlating to volumes has been signed
during  April 2021 and this will give the chance  to Baltika Group to get a more
flexible  and  effective  logistic  cost  structure  in line with Group's buying
volumes.

The  quarter was finished with a profit and in a strong financial position to go
forward  to the next  period when all  the focus will  be mostly on  the new Ivo
Nikkolo brand launch.
