BUSINESS OUTLOOK
Verkkokauppa.com Oyj's business operations are estimated to develop positively within a medium-term time frame. The management believes that the company will succeed in further growing its market share in its chosen segments. The strong balance sheet enables the company to continue expanding its operations in accordance with its strategy. Nevertheless, the business outlook includes uncertainties, especially due to macroeconomic developments. The Finnish Ministry of Finance estimated on 22 December 2016 that the Finnish GDP will grow by 0.9% during 2017.
FINANCIAL GUIDANCE
In 2017, the company's revenue and comparable operating profit are expected to exceed the level of 2016.
CEO SAMULI SEPPÄLÄ'S REVIEW
Competition remained tough throughout Q4 and Verkkokauppa.com focused more on profitability during this important quarter, which typically contributes a significant part of the annual profit. In the reporting period, sales grew by +7%, with an even more significant EBITDA gain of +14%, while mostly maintaining product category market shares. In this hectic season, the company continued to provide quick deliveries from local warehouses and good customer experience. An estimated 1% of all retail business in Finland went online in 2016.
Verkkokauppa.com is seeking more aggressive growth in 2017, boosted by the launch of two new main categories, revised category strategies and major marketing campaigns. The DIY-category will be discontinued due to insufficient profitability and revenue contribution. The Finnish consumer electronics retail market will likely continue to consolidate in 2017, and we will continue to see major changes in the retail sector, as well.
During 2017, Pirkkala store will be relocated and expanded within the same shopping centre, and Oulu store will also be expanded. In addition, one or two completely new stores and a new logistics and distribution centre to support future growth are being planned.
Since its IPO, the company has paid a growing annual dividend. The Board has now decided on a policy of growing dividend and proposes to the Annual General Meeting to start paying a quarterly dividend. This proposed revision of dividend policy reflects Verkkokauppa.com's long-term growth strategy and determination to be an investor-friendly company. The investor website will be fully renewed in the first half of 2017.
The company will continue to invest in new categories and cost-saving technologies while retail continues going strongly online. Revenue is expected to continue to grow in 2017 and in the medium term, supported by positive retail market signals in Finland.

Verkkokauppa.com Oyj will change its reporting terminology in accordance with the guidelines issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) concerning Alternative Performance Measures. Verkkokauppa.com has replaced the previously used term "excluding non-recurring items" with the term "comparable".
Verkkokauppa.com presents Alternative Performance Measures to reflect the underlying business performance and to enhance comparability between financial periods. Comparable performance measures exclude the income statement impact of certain non-operational items affecting comparability. Items affecting comparability are presented in the financial table section.
An item affecting comparability is an income or expense arising from non-recurring or rare events. Items affecting comparability are recognised in the profit and loss statement within the corresponding income or expense group.
REVENUE AND PROFITABILITY DEVELOPMENT
October-December 2016
In October-December, Verkkokauppa.com Oyj's revenue grew by 7% year on year. Revenue grew by 7.7 million euros, totalling 115.3 million euros (107.6). Revenue increased particularly in televisions, small domestic appliances (SDA), gaming, toys and audio/hi-fi.
According to GfK, the demand for consumer electronics increased by 1.7% during October-December in Finland.
As in the previous quarter and in the comparison period, a part of the sales increase was due to large wholesale volumes to customers who export the goods, as well as B2B sales. This part of sales decreased year on year. The volume of these sales is typically difficult to estimate and their profitability is low. However, these sales contribute to the company's purchasing volumes and thus improve the company's position in relation to its suppliers.
Personnel costs decreased in October-December by 1.3% to 6.1 million euros (6.2), although opening hours expanded.
During the fourth quarter, other expenses increased by 0.7 million euros to 5.7 million euros (5.0). The increase came mainly from the utilization of an outsourced service warehouse.
Operating profit in October-December 2016 was 5.5 million euros (4.9) and net profit 4.4 million euros (4.2). The company has taken the preliminary ruling received from Finnish Tax administration regarding the Teosto compensation payment as fully deductible in its taxation during the comparison period. This lowers the taxes for the comparison period by 0.4 million euros. Sufficient prudence has been applied in recording the tax impact of the Teosto compensation in the interim report.
Earnings per share were 0.10 euros (0.08).
January-December 2016
In January-December, Verkkokauppa.com Oyj's revenue grew by 8.1% year on year. Revenue grew by 27.8 million euros, totalling 371 million euros (344). Revenue increased particularly in televisions, computers, computer peripherals and both small (SDA) and major (MDA) domestic appliances.
According to GfK, the demand for consumer electronics increased by 2.9% during January-December in Finland.
Personnel costs increased by 9.0% to 24.4 million euros (22.4). Personnel costs include a holiday pay compensation of 0.6 million euros affecting comparability, which resulted from the company's internal audit identifying technical errors in the company's holiday pay accounting. Comparable personnel costs grew by 6.3% to 23.8 million euros (22.4). The number of personnel grew at a slower rate than revenue.
During the reporting period, other expenses decreased, totalling 19.6 million euros (20.6). Comparable other expenses grew by 13.8% and were 19.6 million euros (17.2). Other expenses in the comparison period affecting comparability included a compensation of 3.4 million euros paid to Teosto.
Operating profit in January-December 2016 was 12.2 million euros (7.7) and net profit 9.8 million euros (5.4). Comparable operating profit in January-December 2016 was 12.8 million euros (11.1) and net profit 10.2 million euros (8.8).
Earnings per share were 0.22 euros (0.12).
The comparison period included items affecting comparability of 4.3 million euros related to a legal dispute lost against Teosto ry regarding levies for private copying. Of these items affecting comparability, 3.4 million euros is included in other expenses and the interest of 0.9 million euros in financing expenses.
Comparable earnings per share were 0.23 euros (0.20)
FINANCE AND INVESTMENTS
Operating cash flow was 18.6 million euros (5.1) in January-December 2016. In the reporting period, the improvement of the operating cash flow mainly resulted from the positive development of operations. In addition, the comparability in the cash flow of the comparison period was affected by items related to the Teosto legal dispute.
Ordinary seasonal fluctuations are reflected in cash and cash equivalents, cash flow and accounts payable, which usually reach the highest point at year-end and the lowest point at the end of the second quarter. Verkkokauppa.com has utilized the maximum amount of cash discounts.
During the reporting period the company invested in the development of new ERP features, which resulted in the capitalization of 0.6 million euros in the IT department's salary expenses and external technology consulting fees. The company also invested in ordinary store equipment and furniture. The net capital expenditures were 0.9 million euros (1.3) in January-December 2016.
The comparison period included financing expenses totalling 0.9 million euros of penalty interest affecting comparability relating to the Teosto legal dispute.
