Ich würde sagen alles was in Russland liegt ist erstmal futsch weil man es nicht mehr ausser Landes schaffen kann. 90 Mio. Inventory + das Cash das man nicht explizit nennt. Also mind. mal 100 Mio. + x Sonderabschreibung.
Update on GFG's Operations in CIS
GFG has been operating in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine under the lamoda brand since 2011 and currently employs c.9,000 people across the region. In FY 2021, we served 3.6m active customers with 15.2m orders resulting in €862m of NMV.
Currently, our platform in Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus is operational and able to take orders, process payments and complete deliveries to customers. We have suspended deliveries to Ukraine and adjacent border areas for safety reasons and are not taking orders from customers in these locations. Our NMV in Ukraine was approximately €12m in 2021 and we employ c.1,000 people through our customer contact centre that supports CIS.
The CIS region operates both Retail and Marketplace business models which provide a mixture of local and international brands to customers. The great majority of products are imported either by GFG or the brands. Products representing c.80% of FY2021 NMV were sourced inside CIS for our Retail and Marketplace sales and c.20% was purchased in the EU and imported by GFG for our Retail model. Consequently, GFG is exposed to risks that restrict its, or its suppliers', ability to carry out and settle imports. In addition, CIS is exposed to the risk that international brands choose to stop supplying products for sale in the region.
We currently maintain a strong inventory position in our CIS fulfilment centre in Moscow. At the end of February, GFG had a Retail inventory balance of c.€85 million, primarily for the upcoming spring / summer season, and more than 5 million Marketplace items in our fulfilment centre.
GFG operates a centralised treasury from London with the great majority of its cash and short duration investments held in international banks and in funds with a strong credit rating. The Group has a strong liquidity position with pro-forma cash of €643 million at 31 December 2021. The regional businesses generally hold the cash floats required to settle their near-term payment obligations. The Russian subsidiary has a borrowing relationship with Alfa Bank JSC which is the subject of EU financial restrictions. We are keeping this position under review as the impact of the financial restrictions are clarified.
Our business in CIS is exposed to any potential second-order impact of sanctions and currency exchange rate changes on future demand from Russian customers and changes in the sanctions and regulation regimes. We are unable to provide certainty that continued developments will not have a material impact on our business. |
