NANTES – 27 January 2022, 07:00 CET – Maisons du Monde (Euronext Paris: MDM; ISIN: FR0013153541), the European leader in inspirational and affordable home & living, today announces its estimated, unaudited fourth quarter, second half and full year 2021 sales.
Julie Walbaum, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “I am delighted to share our 2021 sales performance, which exceeds the guidance we upgraded last October. Throughout the year, our teams’ talent and continued commitment enabled us to face the exceptional challenges stemming from the pandemic and the resulting supply chain imbalances. Our customers kept showing their attachment to our brand through the Christmas season, confirming Maisons du Monde’s brand recognition as the number one destination for stylish and affordable decoration and gifts. As 2022 unveils, I trust our continued ability to react swiftly and effectively to external circumstances while delivering our strategic agenda will allow us to pursue our ambitious growth plans.”
2021 Key points
The beginning of the year was impacted by government-mandated store closures, but store activity caught up from mid-May onwards. Driven by appealing collections, Maisons du Monde showed in 2021 consistent growth across the board, that is in all channels, geographies and categories.
With an active customer base reaching 7.5 million at end-2021, the number of new customers grew by 30% yoy, illustrating the strong traction around the brand. For the 5th year in a row, French customers ranked Maisons du Monde as their #2 favourite brand in home and living. Maisons du Monde also integrated the Top 10 of customers’ preferred brands in terms of sustainability across all consumer verticals (source: OC&C).
Full-year 2021 sales totalled EUR 1,306.8 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 15.1% (+13.4% LFL2), and +10.7% vs 2019. Second half sales reached EUR 672 million (+0.8% yoy, +5.6% vs. H2 2019) and Q4 sales amounted to EUR 369.0 million, up 3.3% yoy, + 1.1% vs Q4 2019.
As a reminder, the Group estimates that the total lost sales from Covid-19-related restriction measures in H1 2021 reached EUR 45 million (-EUR 60 million stores, + EUR 15 million online). In 2020, total lost sales from Covid-19-related restriction measures amounted to EUR 160 million (-EUR 190 million stores, + EUR 30 million online), of which EUR 110 million in H1 and EUR 50 million in Q4.
By category:
Decoration sales grew by 18.2% at EUR 766.1 million. Demand was strong on this category and Maisons du Monde performed well thanks to the rigorous yet agile management of sourcing all along the year, which enabled, among others, to secure the Christmas season.
Furniture sales reached 540.7 million, up 11.0%. Collections were strong, as demonstrated by the success of the products in inventory, but the category was penalised in the second half by limited availability and longer delivery times.
Overall, despite heavy freight disruptions and overall pressure on the supply chain, inventory levels at the end of the year improved vs. end-2020. However, they remain sub-optimal.
By channel:
Online sales increased by 13.1% to reach EUR 435.5 million, representing 33% of total sales. This performance is a strong achievement considering 2020 level was an exceptionally high point for online, as part of the store activity shifted to e-commerce during lockdowns. Over 2021, the share of new online customers increased by 30.0%. The ramp up of the marketplace sales continued at a high pace, and total GMV reached EUR 61 million. As of 31 December 2021, more than 300 vendors were onboarded, offering c. 95,000 SKUs, with a consistently high customer’s satisfaction rate, above 4 out of 5.
Store sales increased by 16.1% to EUR 871.3 million. The stores attracted an increasing number of new customers (+26% yoy). The share of omnichannel customers increased by 16% yoy.
In 2021, Maisons du Monde carried out 21 store openings and 16 closures, out of which:
- 3 store openings in France, 6 in Spain and 12 in the rest of Europe
- 12 store closures in France, 3 in Spain and 1 in Italy
At the end of December 2021, total store number reached 357, a level comparable to end-2020 (352) and end-2019 (358) with a total surface reaching 433,000sqm (+3% vs 2020 and +4% vs 2019).
By geography:
Sales in France reached EUR 701.8 million, up 11.8% vs 2020. Growth was driven by an acceleration of the online activity, supported by the fast development of the marketplace and a higher opening ratio vs 2020 (84% in 2021 vs 76% in 2020).
International sales totalled EUR 604.9 million, up 19.2%, and representing 46% of total sales. Activity was particularly strong in Spain and Italy in 2021, with growth rates close to 25% yoy. Year 2021 saw the opening of the first store in Austria and the ramp up of Portugal, with 2 store openings. At international level, stores were open 85% of the time vs. 78% in 2020, which also contributed to sales growth.
