Mahmud Kamani and Carol Kane, joint CEOs, commented:
"Our group results for the first half year show yet another strong performance, delivering record sales and profits. All of our brands performed extremely well across all territories as we continue to gain market share. We achieved market-leading growth in all markets, with Rest of Europe and the USA being particularly pleasing. Growth in the UK, our largest market, remains very strong.
We successfully executed a major relocation of the distribution centre for PrettyLittleThing, which represents a key milestone as we develop a distribution network capable of generating GBP3 billion of net sales globally, in line with our vision to lead the fashion eCommerce market. This relocation was carried out with a low level of disruption to the operations of PrettyLittleThing and is a credit to the project team. Our extended distribution centre in Burnley, which will have a significant element of automation to drive efficiency savings, is scheduled for operational use in 2019."

About boohoo group plc
"Leading the fashion eCommerce market"
Founded in Manchester in 2006, the group started life as boohoo.com, an inclusive and innovative brand targeting young, value-orientated customers. For over 10 years, boohoo has been pushing boundaries to bring its customers up-to-date and inspirational fashion, 24/7. boohoo has grown rapidly in the UK and internationally, expanding its offering with range extensions into menswear through boohooMAN.

United by a shared customer value proposition, our brands design, source, market and sell great quality clothes, shoes and accessories at unbeatable prices. This investment proposition has helped us grow from a single brand, into a major multi-brand online retailer, leading the fashion eCommerce market for 16 to 30-year-olds around the world. Today the boohoo group sells to over 11 million customer accounts across all its brands around the world.

Review of the business
Group overview
Group revenue for the half year increased by 50% (49% CER) on the first half of the previous year to GBP395.3 million (2018: GBP262.9 million). Revenue growth across all territories and brands was strong.
Adjusted EBITDA was GBP39.6 million (2018: GBP27.8 million), an increase of 43% on the first half of the previous year, with planned investments in the customer proposition and marketing across the group leading to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.0% (2018: 10.6%). Adjusted profit before tax was GBP35.8 million (2018: GBP25.1 million), an increase of 43%. Profit before tax was GBP24.7 million (2018: GBP20.3 million), an increase of 22%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was 1.99p, up 31% on the prior half year. Basic earnings per share rose to 1.42p, an increase of 14% (2018: 1.25p).
In the first half year, the group has again achieved outstanding growth with profitability in line with guidance. All of our brands have performed extremely well and the exceptional growth of PrettyLittleThing continues. The group has achieved gains in market share across its key focus territories and brand awareness has heightened through successful celebrity associations and influencer campaigns. The customer proposition has been refined, with faster delivery times, more delivery options, new payment methods and quicker refunds. Gross margin has improved as a result of stronger sell through, tighter control on stock cover and refinement of the customer proposition.
Cash flow generation was strong, with free cash flow up 93% to GBP24.5m. Capital expenditure was GBP31.2 million as we invest in our infrastructure ahead of our growth curve. Our net cash balance at the period end increased to GBP155.6 million (2018: GBP119.2 million).
Distribution centres
The construction of our latest distribution centre extension at Burnley is now complete and fit-out is underway with completion scheduled for 2019. Automation is a key component of the fit-out which will greatly improve picking efficiency. In addition to the new welfare facilities open to all employees, we now provide a bus service to the Burnley distribution centre from nearby towns. PrettyLittleThing's distribution centre relocation to Sheffield was completed successfully during July and August. Exceptional dual running expenses incurred during this period amounted to GBP6.4 million. The addition of the Sheffield facility greatly increases our sales capacity, will help underpin PLT's infrastructure needs and adds further operational flexibility for the group as we continue to invest in our future distribution network capable of generating GBP3 billion of net sales globally.
boohoo (including boohooMAN)
Performance
Revenue for the half year increased to GBP209.0 million, up 15% on the first half of the previous year, with growth in all our key focus markets.
International growth continues to be strong, especially in northern Europe, where we are rapidly gaining market share, whilst both UK and international growth accelerated in the second quarter alongside an improved gross margin performance. Gross margin increased by 110bps to 53.4%, driven by improved stock control and refinement of the customer proposition.
Product
New product introductions and comprehensive size range offerings have continued to drive growth. boohooMAN has performed strongly with an ever-extending product range and increasing customer reach. Our offering changes daily, with hundreds of new styles added and the very latest fashions appearing within days or weeks of trends being spotted by our fashion experts and offered to our customers at affordable prices. The breadth of the range makes boohoo a destination to which customers keep returning to find their desired items with ease.
Marketing
Marketing activity in the first half year included several high profile celebrity campaigns: Zendaya, Stefflon Don, French Montana, Dele Alli and Paris Hilton headed the cast and were instrumental in driving increased brand awareness. Other activities continued using a successful formula of a mix of media, including social media influencers, bloggers, TV, outdoor, email, student events and digital acquisition channels. Our social media presence continues to grow and we now have 5.0 million followers on Instagram, 2.9 million Facebook fans and 0.5 million followers on Twitter. We have opened marketing offices in Paris and Los Angeles, which will provide local knowledge and focal points for future campaigns and marketing initiatives as we continue to drive awareness of the boohoo brand worldwide.
Customer interaction
Active customer numbers over the last 12 months increased by 15% to 6.7 million. Conversion rate to sale decreased from 4.5% to 4.1% of sessions, when measured on website statistics alone. Order frequency increased 2%, with customers placing an order with us, on average, 2.15 times in 12 months, whilst the number of items per basket decreased 4% to 3.06.
We have continued to refine the customer proposition with free returns, next day delivery and collection points available in more overseas markets. In the UK, the cut-off time for next day delivery has been extended to 11pm and 12pm for next day evening delivery. SMS messaging has been introduced in the UK to keep customers informed of delivery status and we are trialling artificial intelligence in customer contact response. We have 17 country-specific websites and have plans to introduce more foreign language websites and more payment options in overseas markets during the year, in line with our aim to attain best-in-class customer service.
Technology
The principal technology projects completed in the first half year include new payment solutions and more country returns portals, which give more returns flexibility and enable us to refund customers immediately after the courier collects their parcel. We have also introduced social logins for UK customers. Projects underway include a new app with increased functionality and the warehouse automation project, which will drive significant efficiencies.
PrettyLittleThing
Performance
PrettyLittleThing ("PLT") again achieved outstanding revenue growth of 132% over the first half of the previous year, despite some disruption to sales during the warehouse relocation. Growth across all territories was strong. Increased costs of working were incurred whilst the warehouse was relocated, which have been classified as exceptional within distribution costs and administrative expenses, and amount to GBP6.4 million. These comprise the extra costs of operating two sites in the pre go-live and migration periods, dual shipping of customer orders, physically moving stock between the two sites and increased customer service costs to deal with queries during the migration period. Gross margin has increased to 57.3% (2018: 54.8%), with stronger sell-through and refinements to the customer proposition.
Product
PLT brings the latest and most relevant celebrity looks at affordable prices to our customers, with a choice of over 13,000 styles and new items available daily. Our product range has continued to expand during the first half of the year with strong growth being seen in the "shape" ranges including Petite, Curve and Plus. During the first half year we continued to bring the latest celebrity looks to customers including collaborations with UK Radio presenter, Maya Jama, and American Hip-Hop stylist, Karl Kani.
Marketing
We have continued to extend our social media reach by increasing the number of social media influencers, combined with celebrity campaigns and collaborations. These include Maya Jama, Karl Kani and the recently-announced collaboration with Ashley Graham, one of America's most successful models, all of which help the brand reach its target audience.
Customer interaction
We now support eight country-specific websites and have plans for further foreign language sites, following the success of the French language site, introduced in the previous financial year. For the UK market, we offer a wide range of free return options. We have also introduced new returns options in international markets, accelerating the point of refund to enhance the customer experience.
Active customer numbers over the last 12 months increased by 99% to 4.0 million. We have 1.4 million followers on Facebook (an increase of 40% in 12 months), 0.2 million followers on Twitter, 6.3 million Instagram followers (an increase of 200% in 12 months), as well as a presence on several other social media channels.
Technology
PLT operates iOS and android apps for the UK and US markets and the apps have been developed throughout the period to improve the customer experience and conversion rates. There have been continuous improvements to the performance and user experience of all customer-facing websites, with key highlights being the introduction of a new 'Contact Us' page to more effectively manage customer queries and enhance product information. We regularly review payment options offered to customers, adding new methods pertinent to each market.
Nasty Gal
Performance
Revenue growth across all territories has been very strong at 111%. The USA is the largest market for the brand and revenue growth there remains robust. The brand continues to see strong growth outside the US, albeit from a low base. Gross margin at 59.0% (2018: 63.8%) has remained at a pleasing level as the customer proposition is refined in each territory. Conversion and the number of items per basket have also risen.
Product
Our product range continues to broaden and targets price points higher than those of boohoo. The brand has its roots in Los Angeles and portrays a distinctive look for the confident girl who like to express her personality through the clothes she wears. Now, with over 6,000 styles in stock, the brand's appeal is rising and reaching a larger audience.
Marketing
The marketing strategy has focussed on building and extending the number of bloggers and influencers and staging key media events to re-engage customer interest and promote brand loyalty.
Customer interaction
Nasty Gal has six country and regional websites, developed since start-up in March 2017 and Android and iOS apps for the UK, US and the Australian markets.
On social media we have 2.8 million followers on Instagram, 1.2 million Facebook likes and 0.2 million followers on Twitter.

1 Accounting policies
General information
boohoo group plc is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in Jersey and listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange. Its registered office address is: 12 Castle Street, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3RT. The company was incorporated on 19 November 2013.
Basis of preparation
The interim condensed financial statements for the six months ended 31 August 2018 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the group's Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 28 February 2018, prepared and approved by the directors in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU ("Adopted IFRSs"), IFRIC Interpretations and the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS.
The interim condensed financial statements contained in this report are not audited and do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Companies (Jersey) Law 1991. The Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 28 February 2018 has been filed with the Jersey Companies Registry. The auditors' reports on those accounts was unqualified and did not include reference to any matters on which the auditors were required to report by exception under Companies (Jersey) Law 1991.
The group's business activities together with the factors that are likely to affect its future developments, performance and position are set out in the Business and Financial Reviews. The Financial Review describes the group's financial position, cash flows and bank facilities.
The interim financial statements are unaudited and were approved by the board of directors on 25 September 2018.
Going concern
The directors have reviewed the group's forecast and projections, including assumptions concerning capital expenditure and expenditure commitments and their impact on cash flows, and have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate financial resources to continue its operations for the foreseeable future. For this reason they have continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
In preparing the interim announcement, the directors have also made reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates and prepared the interim announcement on the going concern basis. The interim announcement and management report contained herein give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit and loss of the group.
Accounting policies
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the group's Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 28 February 2018. IFRS 9, "Financial instruments", is effective for the current accounting period, but will not have an effect on the accounts as foreign currency hedging contracts will continue to be accounted for as hedges under the standard. IFRS 15, "Revenue from contracts with customers", is effective for the current accounting period, but will not have an effect on the accounts, as revenue from online sales is already recognised when the customer is estimated to have received the goods and revenue from annual delivery service is already spread over the period of the service. IFRS 16, "Leases", is effective for accounting periods commencing 1 January 2019 and will have an effect in the accounts for the year ended 29 February 2020. Taking account of leases that exist at 31 August 2018, the effect is expected to be an increase in assets and liabilities of GBP5 million, additional depreciation charges and interest charges in the first year of application of the standard of GBP1 million and GBP0.1 million respectively per annum and a reduction on operating expenses of GBP1.1 million. The
accounting treatment for elements of the cost of third party logistics service for PLT is under review with respect to IFRS 16.
2 Principal risks and uncertainties
The board considers the principal risks and uncertainties which could impact the group over the remaining six months of the financial year to 28 February 2019 to be unchanged from those set out in the group's Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 28 February 2018, which in summary are: competition risk; fashion and consumer demands risk; systems and technical risk; supply chain risk; loss of key facilities; people risk; customer dissatisfaction; and financial risk. These are set out in detail on pages 22 to 24 of the group's Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 28 February 2018, a copy of which is available on the group's website, www.boohooplc.com. In addition, the group is closely monitoring the potential impacts of the UK's leaving the EU.

From time to time, the group can be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business which may include cases relating to the group's brands and trading names. All such cases brought against the group are robustly defended and a liability is recorded only when it is probable that the case will result in a future economic outflow and that the outflow can be reliably measured.
As at 31 August 2018, there are no pending claims or proceedings against the group which in the opinion of the directors are expected to have a material adverse effect on its liquidity or operations.
