Munich, November 20, 2018. Westwing continued its growth path in the third quarter of 2018. Revenue increased by 19.6% in the first nine months and by 15.0% in the third quarter of 2018 despite unusually warm weather in Europe affecting eCommerce in general. This positive development was led by the DACH segment, showing significant growth of 42.8% in the first nine months and 33.2% in the third quarter of 2018.
Based on its loyalty-driven business model Westwing further expanded its active customer base by 14.8% to 921 thousand active customers, at the same time increasing the number of total orders and share of wallet with its customers. In addition, in line with Westwing's strategy, the share of Private Label products increased strongly by 7 percentage points year on year to 18% of the Group's gross merchandise value (GMV) in the third quarter of 2018.
Stefan Smalla, Founder & CEO of Westwing, said: "We continue to drive profitable growth fuelled by our customer loyalty. In our DACH market and going forward increasingly in our international markets, we are inspiring our customers with our full offering across daily themes and permanent assortment, both supported by our own label and private label business. We plan to make our offering even more exciting and invest into technology and organic marketing, so we improve the overall experience for our customers."
Westwing is profitable at 0.7% Adj EBITDA margin in the first nine months of 2018 (first nine months of 2017: -5.0% Adj EBITDA margin). Strong unit economics, a highly efficient marketing model and a lean cost base paired with operating leverage supported the improvement of the Adj EBITDA margin.
Westwing will continue to invest into further growth and the roll-out of its complete business model across its markets. The company confirms its outlook for the full year of 2018 and expects revenue growth between 15% and 20% and an Adj EBITDA margin of 1-2%.
