CEO statement
Paul Fischbein, President & CEO comments: “Qliro Group’s sales are continuing to
display strong momentum. All segments showed growth in the fourth quarter and
total sales in 2014 reached SEK 5 billion for the first time, while underlying
operating income for the full year before depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA)
amounted to SEK 49 million. The Group’s cash flow from operations, excluding
Qliro Financial Services’s loan book, was positive and amounted to SEK 75
million for the full year.

We have entered into an extremely exciting phase in the company’s history. In
the fourth quarter we changed the name of the Group to Qliro Group, and this
change marks the fact that we now rapidly form a new future for the business.
The launch of our payment solution Qliro is a good example of a key initiative
and it was introduced to the market in December, with considerable success. We
are therefore looking forward to the continued roll-out of the payment solution,
which is progressing at a high pace.

All our companies are showing strong growth and we are continuing to invest in
our businesses. In addition to the continued investment in the Qliro payment
solution, we will be relocating Lekmer’s warehouse operations to a new facility,
generating capacity for persistent high growth and improved efficiency. The
consolidation of CDON’s warehouse operations will continue in 2015 and we are
also working on improving Nelly’s and Tretti’s logistics operations through
continued investments in systems and equipment.

Nelly showed growth of 14% in the fourth quarter in a market that was sluggish
as a result of the warm weather, and the rapid strengthening of the US dollar
which had a negative impact of around SEK 4 million on the fourth quarter
earnings. However, underlying profit, excluding currency effects, on our home
market, Sweden, remained stable. Sales for Gymgrossisten rose by 14%, displaying
an EBIT margin of 7%.

The number of retailers affiliated to CDON Marketplace rose to 402, which boosts
the future growth potential for CDON Marketplace. CDON increased sales by 9% in
the quarter, and, despite major investments, succeeded in making a positive
underlying profit of almost SEK 6 million. The total business volume for CDON
including Marketplace rose by 12% in the fourth quarter.

The fourth quarter saw the completion of Qliro Group’s rights issue, raising SEK
647 million for the company before transaction costs, which both strengthens us
financially and creates new opportunities for the company. I would like to take
this opportunity to express my thanks to the shareholders for your confidence in
Qliro Group and our plans for the future.”
