/ Key word(s): 9 Month figures/Quarter Results
GLOBAL FASHION GROUP REPORTS Q3 2025 RESULTS Luxembourg, 7 November 2025 - Global Fashion Group S.A. ("GFG" or "the Group"), the leading online fashion and lifestyle destination in ANZ, LATAM and SEA, delivered a strong Q3 Adjusted EBITDA improvement through Gross Margin expansion and cost discipline, keeping GFG on track to achieve full-year Adjusted EBITDA breakeven. Q3 2025 Highlights (growth rates at constant currency)
Christoph Barchewitz, CEO of GFG, said: "We have achieved a significant financial milestone with our Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months turning positive. Our profitability improvements this quarter are a result of continued Gross Margin expansion and cost discipline. We have also been encouraged by healthier customer indicators which are supporting our topline recovery. With our peak trading quarter underway, we are well positioned for our Q4 sales events to ensure a strong close to the year." In Q3 2025, GFG delivered €239 million of Net Merchandise Value ("NMV"), representing a 0.4% decline year-over-year ("yoy") on a constant currency basis. This stabilisation of NMV was supported by improving customer trends. The Active Customer decline slowed to a 2.3% decrease yoy and Order Frequency increased 0.4% yoy. All topline metrics - NMV, Revenue and Active Customers - increased in GFG's largest markets, ANZ and LATAM. Both regions continued to deliver quarterly NMV growth with ANZ up 4.9% and LATAM up 3.8% yoy on a constant currency basis. LATAM also achieved a return to customer growth with an Active Customers increase of 1.0% yoy. SEA remained challenged with a 15.0% NMV decline yoy. GFG continues to focus on stabilising and turning around SEA's performance. All regions contributed to the Group's Gross Margin expansion of 1.3ppt yoy to 46.1% primarily due to higher shares of Marketplace and Platform Services. The margin expansion combined with cost reductions contributed to Adjusted EBITDA margin improving 4.4ppt yoy to 0.6%. GFG's Adjusted EBITDA has improved by €20 million year-to-date and turned positive at €2.4 million for the last twelve months. Q3 Normalised Free Cash Flow ("NFCF")2 was a €15 million seasonal outflow, improving by €11 million compared to last year. NFCF benefitted from a €7 million improvement in Adjusted EBITDA and a €6 million capex reduction driven in part by the completion of the 2024 OWMS project investment. These benefits were partially offset by a less favourable working capital outflow, which was elevated yoy due to payables timing differences. GFG closed Q3 with €136 million Pro-Forma Cash and €85 million Pro-Forma Net Cash. Since the close, the Group has successfully repurchased €6.7 million of its outstanding convertible bond at a discount. GFG remains open to considering all opportunities to strengthen its liquidity, including potential debt financings and repurchases of the remaining €40.9 million of outstanding bonds. For full-year 2025, GFG narrows its NMV guidance expectations from (5)-5% to (2)-2% year-over-year on a constant current basis. This implies an expected NMV range of €1,010-1,060 million when accounting for year-to-date exchange rate movements. For Adjusted EBITDA, GFG expects to achieve its breakeven guidance and deliver a single-digit Euro million result for the full-year.
