GRENOBLE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--September 28, 2026-- 

Regulatory News:

Spartoo (ISIN: FR00140043Y1 -- ticker: ALSPT), one of the leading online retailers of fashion items in Europe, today announced its half-year results for the period ended June 30, 2026, as approved by the Board of Directors on September 24, 2026. The half-year financial report will be published and made available to the public in October 2026.

In H1 2026, GMV amounted to EUR77.0 million, down 7.7% compared with H1 2025. Revenue reached EUR57.0 million, compared with EUR59.9 million a year earlier. Excluding exceptional inventory clearance sales, adjusted revenue stood at EUR56.8 million, down 4.6%.

Operating profitability declined during the period, with adjusted EBITDA of -EUR0.6 million. Nevertheless, the Company improved its free cash flow through a reduction in working capital requirements and controlled investments. Net debt remained stable compared with the end of December 2025, at EUR4.3 million.

Boris Saragaglia, co-founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Spartoo, stated: "The first half of 2026 was marked by a decline in our activity and gross margin, which weighed on our operating profitability. Rising oil prices and underlying inflation during the half-year put significant pressure on purchasing power. In this demanding environment, we maintained rigorous control over our inventory and investments. This discipline enabled us to generate positive free cash flow and reduce our net debt over the last 12 months. Our Third-Party Services continued to grow, while our physical retail network developed through store-in-store corners. Generating free cash flow remains our priority in an economic environment that is unfavorable to consumer spending."

BtoC activity, online & offline

In 2026, Spartoo continued to offer a wide selection of footwear, clothing, bags and accessories, with more than 9,000 brands and more than 1.5 million items available in over 30 European countries.

In H1 2026, BtoC GMV amounted to EUR67.0 million, down 9.8% compared with H1 2025. International GMV reached EUR30.0 million, down 13.0%, and represented 44.8% of BtoC activity.

The average basket net of returns including VAT stood at EUR90, compared with EUR91 in H1 2025. The active customer base amounted to 1.3 million, and returning customers accounted for more than 42% of online GMV. The customer recommendation score rose to 90/100, compared with 89/100 a year earlier.

The physical retail network comprised 65 points of sale as of June 30, 2026, including 62 store-in-store corners in department stores and three affiliates. Offline activity grew on a like-for-like basis during the half-year. Spartoo continued to develop its asset-light omnichannel model, focused on corners and affiliates.

The inventory optimization policy resulted in a 9.4% decrease in consolidated gross inventory compared with December 31, 2025, to EUR46.2 million, a reduction of EUR4.8 million. Inventory allocated to online activities fell by 10.3% in gross value and 7.1% in volume over the same period. Consolidated net inventory stood at EUR42.3 million, compared with EUR45.8 million at the end of December 2025.

Third-Party Services

TooPost: activity continued to grow in H1 2026

Third-Party Services GMV reached EUR10.3 million, up 7.4% compared with H1 2025.

TooPost's freight forwarding activity welcomed 12 new clients during the period and had 134 clients as of June 30, 2026, compared with 141 at the end of December 2025.

Financial results: decline in gross margin and operating profitability

Gross margin(3) stood at EUR21.4 million, representing 37.7% of adjusted revenue, compared with EUR23.9 million and 40.2% in H1 2025.

Despite persistent cost pressures, the Group contained adjusted EBITDA at -EUR0.6 million, or -1% of revenue. This reflects its cost-control measures: allocating marketing investments selectively according to their profitability, optimizing logistics expenses, streamlining fixed costs and keeping the cost of acquiring new customers stable at EUR10.4.

Operating income (EBIT) stood at -EUR1.4 million, compared with +EUR0.1 million in H1 2025. It notably includes a EUR0.5 million charge related to an exceptional inventory clearance operation.

The financial result improved to -EUR0.1 million, compared with -EUR0.5 million in the comparative period. The consolidated net result stood at -EUR1.6 million, compared with -EUR0.9 million in H1 2025.
