GRENOBLE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:

Spartoo (ISIN: FR00140043Y1 – ticker: ALSPT), one of the leading online retailers of fashion items in Europe, today announced its half-year results for the period ended June 30, 2026, as approved by the Board of Directors on September 24, 2026. The half-year financial report will be published and made available to the public in October 2026.

In H1 2026, GMV amounted to €77.0 million, down 7.7% compared with H1 2025. Revenue reached €57.0 million, compared with €59.9 million a year earlier. Excluding exceptional inventory clearance sales, adjusted revenue stood at €56.8 million, down 4.6%.

Operating profitability declined during the period, with adjusted EBITDA of -€0.6 million. Nevertheless, the Company improved its free cash flow through a reduction in working capital requirements and controlled investments. Net debt remained stable compared with the end of December 2025, at €4.3 million.

Boris Saragaglia, co-founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Spartoo, stated: “The first half of 2026 was marked by a decline in our activity and gross margin, which weighed on our operating profitability. Rising oil prices and underlying inflation during the half-year put significant pressure on purchasing power. In this demanding environment, we maintained rigorous control over our inventory and investments. This discipline enabled us to generate positive free cash flow and reduce our net debt over the last 12 months. Our Third-Party Services continued to grow, while our physical retail network developed through store-in-store corners. Generating free cash flow remains our priority in an economic environment that is unfavorable to consumer spending.”

BtoC activity, online & offline

In 2026, Spartoo continued to offer a wide selection of footwear, clothing, bags and accessories, with more than 9,000 brands and more than 1.5 million items available in over 30 European countries.

In H1 2026, BtoC GMV amounted to €67.0 million, down 9.8% compared with H1 2025. International GMV reached €30.0 million, down 13.0%, and represented 44.8% of BtoC activity.

The average basket net of returns including VAT stood at €90, compared with €91 in H1 2025. The active customer base amounted to 1.3 million, and returning customers accounted for more than 42% of online GMV. The customer recommendation score rose to 90/100, compared with 89/100 a year earlier.

The physical retail network comprised 65 points of sale as of June 30, 2026, including 62 store-in-store corners in department stores and three affiliates. Offline activity grew on a like-for-like basis during the half-year. Spartoo continued to develop its asset-light omnichannel model, focused on corners and affiliates.

The inventory optimization policy resulted in a 9.4% decrease in consolidated gross inventory compared with December 31, 2025, to €46.2 million, a reduction of €4.8 million. Inventory allocated to online activities fell by 10.3% in gross value and 7.1% in volume over the same period. Consolidated net inventory stood at €42.3 million, compared with €45.8 million at the end of December 2025.

Financial results: decline in gross margin and operating profitability

Gross margin³ stood at €21.4 million, representing 37.7% of adjusted revenue, compared with €23.9 million and 40.2% in H1 2025.

Operating income (EBIT) stood at -€1.4 million, compared with +€0.1 million in H1 2025. It notably includes a €0.5 million charge related to an exceptional inventory clearance operation.
