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 21 June 2017 that the Finnish GDP will grow by 2.4% 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
Verkkokauppa.com 's Q2 revenue grew by 24%, boosted by an updated, more aggressive growth strategy for 2017. Market share was taken in almost all categories, with most gains in categories with most aggressive pricing and marketing efforts. As Verkkokauppa.com only has a small assortment of seasonal products, bad weather or other seasonal effects have not affected revenue.
Competition in consumer electronics categories remained tough, which drove down the overall gross margin to 14.6%. Verkkokauppa.com continues to target a roughly one percent market share gain per category per year. This progress is tracked weekly or monthly. New consumer financing tool, Apuraha XXL was introduced, offering retail customers up to 60 months of payment time.
Search for new retail and logistics premises in Helsinki and Turku regions continues. These will need to be suitable for the company's low-cost online business model, and have flexible enough leasing terms, bearing in mind that more retail is going online in the future. There will be no new store openings during 2017.
Verkkokauppa.com's Board of Directors has decided that a quarterly dividend of 0.042 euros per share be paid for Q2, in line with the policy of growing dividends. New board members, Robert Burén and Panu Porkka have been familiarized with the company, its updated strategy and current projects.
The company will continue to invest in new online-suitable categories and cost-saving technologies. An estimated one per cent, or 400 million euros, of offline retail sales goes online every year in Finland, current level being approximately 10%. The company expects to continue revenue growth in 2017 and in the medium term, supported by positive retail market signals, GDP growth in Finland and the more aggressive growth strategy.

The company paid its pension costs for 2017 in advance, as interest is more attractive than with corresponding bank deposits.

1) Fixed costs = Personnel expenses + other operating expenses 2) Fixed costs, % = (Personnel expenses + other operating expenses) / Revenue x 100 3) Gross profit = Revenue - Cost of goods and services 4) Gross margin, % = (Revenue - Cost of goods and services) / Revenue x 100 5) EBITDA = Operating profit before depreciation 6) EBITDA, % = Operating profit before depreciation / Revenue x 100 7) Operating margin, % = Operating result / Revenue x 100 8) Comparable operating margin, % = Comparable operating result / Revenue x 100 9) Equity ratio = (Equity + depreciation difference x (1 - tax rate)) / (Total sum of the balance sheet - advances received) x 100 10) Return on capital employed (ROCE), rolling 12 months, % = (Net profit + financial expenses + taxes) / (Average equity + interest-bearing debt) x 100 11) Net gearing, % = (Interest-bearing debt - cash and cash equivalents - interest-bearing receivables) / Equity x 100 12) Earnings per share = Profit for the financial period / Monthly average number of shares adjusted by share issues 13) Comparable earnings per share = Comparable profit for the financial period / Monthly average number of shares adjusted by share issues 14) Earnings per share (diluted) = Profit for the financial period / Monthly average number of shares adjusted by share issues + number of shares according to subscription rights 15) Comparable earnings per share (diluted) = Comparable profit for the financial period / Monthly average number of shares adjusted by share issues + number of shares according to subscription rights 16) Average number of shares at end of the period revised by share split = Monthly average number of shares at the end of the period revised by share split 17) Number of employees at the end of the period = Average number of employees on the last week of the period
