Net retail sales grew by 40.0% y-o-y, driven by a combination of 19.5% selling space growth and 13.1% LFL sales growth. Net retail sales achieved by the stores under the Magnit brand accelerated to 20.7% from 18.8% in 1Q 2022 driven by LFL sales growth in the mature outlets and selling space growth. Customer environment normalized and shopping patterns returned to normal without stockpiling effect. Net retail sales growth continued to outpace selling space growth on further improvement of sales densities. Overall sales densities in 2Q 2022 (excluding stores under the Dixy brand) improved by 2.7% q-o-q and 8.1% y-o-y while across the Company's main convenience store format these improved by 2.8% q-o-q and 8.5% y-o-y. Net retail sales growth demonstrated strong monthly performance. Having peaked in March 2022 during stockpiling period, net retail sales growth normalized and demonstrated strong monthly dynamics in the reported quarter (+39.4% in April, +40.1% in May and +40.4% in June). Selling space increased by 19.5% y-o-y driven by organic expansion and the Dixy acquisition (2,477 Dixy stores added in 3Q 2021 but consolidated from July 22nd, 2021). Selling space growth adjusted for the Dixy acquisition decelerated from 10.5% in the previous quarter to 9.0%, reflecting 64% decrease y-o-y in the number of store openings per quarter (188 in 2Q 2022 compared to 519 in 2Q 2021 on gross basis). 19.5% selling space growth y-o-y LFL sales growth accelerated further from 12.0% in the previous quarter to 13.1% in 2Q 2022 driven by strong average ticket growth. 476 stores entered LFL panel in 2Q (including 279 convenience stores and 197 drogeries).

Thus, acceleration of LFL sales growth q-o-q was driven by solid performance of mature stores, but not the pace of store space addition. LFL sales growth in the reported quarter was driven by strong LFL average ticket growth of 15.0% predominantly due to y-o-y acceleration of inflation.

All regions showed robust LFL sales growth with North-West and Central regions delivering the strongest results. LFL sales growth in Moscow and St. Petersburg outpaced regions on positive LFL traffic dynamics, while in regions LFL traffic was negative mainly due to worse weather conditions and tourist season compared to May-June 2021. Revenue and LFL sales growth accelerated versus previous quarter despite lower level of promo in the reported quarter.
