Group retail revenue rose by 7.2% YoY to RUB 185,172 mln in FY 2021 on the back of solid LFL performance of both O'KEY and DA!, supported by selling space expansion. Rental income rose by 20.1% YoY to RUB 1,925 mln in FY 2021. Total Group revenue increased by 7.3% YoY to RUB 187,097 mln.

 

Group Gross Profit
 

In FY 2021, Group gross profit rose by 7.2% YoY to RUB 42,119 mln, while gross margin stood flat YoY at 22.5%.
 

In FY 2021, logistics costs as a percentage of revenue increased by 0.4 pp YoY due to significant transportation tariffs inflation. However, the increase was fully offset by commercial margin improvement of 0.4 pp YoY in FY 2021. That was mainly led by ongoing assortment optimisation, as well as additional efficiencies in procurement and operational synergies between the formats.

 

Shrinkage costs as a percentage of revenue stood flat YoY thanks to the efficient supply chain and despite the substantial share of 'fresh' and 'ultra-fresh' products in the mix, which amounted to 52.1% of O'KEY's and over 60% of DA!'s net retail revenue in FY 2021.
