MUNICH--(Business Wire / Korea Newswire)--MYT Netherlands Parent B.V. (NYSE: MYTE) (“Mytheresa” or the “Company”), the parent company of Mytheresa Group GmbH, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2022 ended June 30, 2022. The luxury multi-brand digital platform delivered strong results for the full fiscal year and another quarter of continued top-line growth with increased profitability. Mytheresa sees itself perfectly positioned to take advantage of the ongoing shift to online of luxury consumers, the continued consolidation in the digital luxury sector and the global market share expansion opportunities.

Michael Kliger, Chief Executive Officer of Mytheresa, said, “Our strong financial results for fiscal year 2022, as well as for the fourth quarter, put us at the very top of performance of digital platforms. The results prove the unique positioning and business model of Mytheresa. We showed strong growth and profitability against a backdrop of economic and geopolitical challenges. We remain very confident that the high-end digital luxury sector combined with our superior business model will provide excellent results for our investors in the years to come. We will, of course, remain very agile in reacting to external developments and their potential impact on our business.”

Kliger continued, “In the fourth quarter, our GMV growth accelerated from Q3, we saw above average GMV growth in the United States, where we strengthened our position as a top of mind shopping destination for luxury consumers. Customer engagement and retention continued to increase, which speaks to our unique positioning attracting a highly valuable multi-brand customer that appreciates our excellent service. We see ourselves as one of the few winners in the clearly consolidating luxury ecommerce space.”

ABOUT NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES AND OPERATING METRICS

We review a number of operating and financial metrics, including the following business and non-IFRS metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. We present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as well as Adjusted Operating Income Margin and Adjusted Net Income Margin because they are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Further, we believe these measures are helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results, because they exclude the impact of items that are outside the control of management or not reflective of our ongoing operations and performance. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income, and Adjusted Net Income have limitations, because they exclude certain types of expenses. We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income as well as Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Operating Income Margin and Adjusted Net Income Margin as supplemental information only. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons we consider it appropriate for supplemental analysis.

Our non-IFRS financial measures include:

· Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure that we calculate as net income before finance expense (net), taxes, and depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude IPO preparation and transaction costs, Other transaction-related, certain legal and other expenses and IPO-related share-based compensation expenses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-IFRS measure which is calculated in relation to net sales.

· Adjusted Operating Income is a non-IFRS financial measure that we calculate as operating income, adjusted to exclude IPO preparation and transaction costs, Other transaction-related, certain legal and other expenses and IPO-related share-based compensation expenses. Adjusted Operating Income Margin is a non-IFRS measure which is calculated in relation to net sales.

· Adjusted Net Income is a non-IFRS financial measure that we calculate as net income, adjusted to exclude finance expenses on our Shareholder Loans, IPO preparation and transaction costs, Other transaction-related, certain legal and other expenses, IPO-related share-based compensation expenses and related income tax effects. Adjusted Net Income Margin is a non-IFRS measure which is calculated in relation to net sales.

We are not able to forecast net income (loss) on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect net income (loss), including, but not limited to, Income taxes and Interest expense and, as a result, are unable to provide a reconciliation to forecasted Adjusted EBITDA.

Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) is an operative measure and means the total Euro value of orders processed. GMV is inclusive of merchandise value, shipping and duty. It is net of returns, value added taxes, applicable sales taxes and cancellations. GMV does not represent revenue earned by us. We use GMV as an indicator for the usage of our platform that is not influenced by the mix of direct sales and commission sales. The indicators we use to monitor usage of our platform include, among others, active customers, total orders shipped and GMV.
