Q1 2024 Results Presentation

Strategic and Financial Progress

Q1 2024

Strategic progress:

  • Expanded our eyewear frames portfolio with more brands and collaborations, available already online and in our stores
  • Introduced a broader range of lens options, complementing our already strong portfolio of beloved brands
  • Weak consumer sentiment in Germany continues to persist. In January and February, we once again outperformed the optical market in Germany, which increased by 3%1 in prescription glasses and sunglasses. Mister Spex grew by 4% in the same period

Financial progress:

  • A slow start in January was followed by acceleration in February. March was impacted by an earlier Easter, resulting in a net revenue growth of 2% (2M: 4% growth)
  • Improvement in cash flow of ~ €12 million was driven by better inventory management and a reduction in the number of store openings
