Just on the fashionette platform, the number of new customers increased by +7.2%.

Daniel Raab, CEO of fashionette AG: “The first quarter started on a very high note and our performance was strong during the first two months of the quarter. After 24 February, we have witnessed a rapid change in consumer sentiment, which predominantly impacted our traffic and therefore our customer acquisition numbers. While both companies have been impacted by consequences of the current geopolitical climate, both delivered profitable growth and specifically, fashionette has been able to withstand the volatility of the macroeconomic environment. I am very proud of our teams for persistently pushing the boundaries in delivering great customer experience while mitigating the macroeconomic challenges. Our outlook for the year remains unchanged and although an increasingly challenging external environment introduces a greater degree of uncertainty than normally.”
