 Vladimir Chirakhov, CEO of Detsky Mir Group said:

“Despite the challenging economic environment in Russia, 2015 was one of the most successful for Detsky Mir Group in terms of business growth and strengthening its leading position in the market for children's goods.

“Preliminary consolidated unaudited retail revenue increased by 32% to RUB 59.5bn. Strong revenue growth was a result of higher sales at comparable stores, with like-for-like (LFL) growth of 12.4% mainly on the back of an 8.4% increase in average check and a 3.7% rise in the number of purchases. Against the background of an expected decline of the children's goods market in volume terms, Detsky Mir Group's LFL growth of sales volume amounted to 6%.

“In 2015, Detsky Mir Group opened 104 new stores, a record for the Company. Detsky Mir grew fastest in the Moscow region (33 major new stores opened) and St. Petersburg and Leningrad region (13 major new stores opened). We continued to expand in Kazakhstan with the opening of a new store in Astana. In 2016, the retail chain will continue to grow.

“In line with our multi-channel sales strategy, E-commerce was the fastest growing segment of Detsky Mir Group. For the full year 2015, unaudited revenues of this segment increased by almost four times and amounted to RUB 1.3bn.[2]

“As a result of long-term strong performance of the Company, OJSC "Detsky Mir"’s main shareholder Sistema JSFC completed the sale of 23.1% of the Company to the Russia-China Investment Fund for a total consideration of RUB 9.75bn. The agreement was the first sizeable transaction in the children's goods market with the participation of foreign capital, confirming the high interest of Russian as well as international investors to such a high-performing asset as the Detsky Mir retail chain.”
