Mister Spex once again outperforms the market and reports its financial results for 2022
- Despite the negative consumer sentiment and declining revenues in the optical market, Mister Spex reached net sales of € 210 million in 2022 (8% growth year-on-year)
- Adjusted EBITA margin at -4%, reached upper end of guidance range (-6% to -3%)
- Seamless omnichannel model results in:
- Growth in all product categories (Prescription glasses: +5%, Sunglasses: +19%, Contact lenses: +5%)
- Growth in all segments (Germany: +11%, International: +1%)
- Growth in all non-financial metrics (Average Order Value: +5%, Number of orders: +5%, Active customers: +2%)
- Outlook for 2023
- Net revenue: mid to high single digit growth
- Adjusted EBITDA margin: positive low single-digit percentage margin
Mister Spex SE, the leading digitally driven omnichannel optician, today announced its financial results for the full year 2022. Revenue for the year increased by 8% to €210 million, up from €194 million in the previous year and well within guidance range (7% to 12% growth). The growth was driven by strong growth across all categories, with particularly strong development in sunglasses and prescription glasses. The core market, Germany has been the key driver behind strong revenue growth in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA margin reached the upper half of the adjusted outlook (-6% to -3%), with -4% or €-8.3 million in 2022.
The past year has been particularly dominated by Russia’s war in Ukraine and the resulting impacts on energy prices and rising costs of living. This had a negative impact on the business development, starting from second quarter of 2022. The evolving degree of uncertainty and rising raw material and energy prices also resulted in a decline in demand for eyewear and ophthalmic services. However, the customer-centric omnichannel model of Mister Spex has proven to be advantageous and led to a strong revenue growth and further market share gains in the core market Germany.
“Lean 4 Leverage” implementation supports sales growth and starts to benefit the adjusted EBITDA
At the beginning of September 2022, Mister Spex initiated the “Lean 4 Leverage” program to substantially increase profitability. One of the measures contained therein was the concentration on the core and this results in first successes. With a revenue of €153 million or 11% growth (2021: €138 million), Mister Spex was able to strongly expand its activities in its home country. Total growth was supported by strong like-for-like sales of 20% in 2022[a]and by 16 new store openings in Germany. Based on the GfK (“Growth from Knowledge”: Consumer Goods Research Company) sales value of the German independent optical market for spectacle frames declined by 5% in 2022. Dirk Graber, founder and Co-CEO of Mister Spex SE says: “The market environment last year was not easy, and I am therefore very happy that we have managed to grow further in Germany thanks to our attractive range of products and services. This is why we expect continuing revenue growth for the coming year too.”
The adjusted EBITDA in 2022 reached €-8.3 million or -4% adjusted EBITDA margin. As part of “Lean 4 Leverage”, marketing budget continues to be optimized with effects already visible in the 4th quarter and in full year.
19% growth in net revenue for sunglasses and 5% growth for prescription glasses
In 2022, all product categories have experienced positive revenue development. Sunglasses was the fastest growing product category with a 19% increase in revenue. The growth was supported by the recovery in the travel sector, growing assortment range and good weather. Prescription glasses increased by 5%, benefiting from accelerated growth of 9% in the second half of the year. Contact lens revenue increased by 5%, supported from stronger development in the first half of the year.
Outlook for 2023
For fiscal year 2023, management expects revenue growth in the mid to high single-digit percentage range. The expansion of the store network by around 10 stores, a slight increase in the number of orders, a slight increase in the average order value and a slight increase in active customers should contribute to revenue growth.
The Management Board expects a positive adjusted EBITDA margin in the low single-digit percentage range for the 2023 financial year compared to -4% in 2022. As a result of the “Lean 4 Leverage” efficiency program, which was launched in the second half of 2022, the Germany segment is expected to significantly contribute to the overall improvement in 2023. Under the program, the focus is on improving the contribution margin and increasing operational efficiency.
The annual report and further information for analysts and investors are available on the Mister Spex Investor Relations website. The results for the first quarter 2023 will be published on May 11th 2023.
