Verkkokauppa.com released its half-year report for January to June 2024, highlighting a challenging market environment with low consumer confidence and intense price competition, which weakened profitability. The company's revenue for the second quarter was EUR 105.5 million, a 6% decline from the previous year. The comparable operating result was EUR -1.7 million, impacted by low demand, price competition, and increased costs. The first half of 2024 saw a revenue decline of 9% to EUR 213.5 million, with a net loss of EUR 3.1 million. CEO Panu Porkka noted that while demand for discretionary products was weak, the company's strategic growth areas, such as online and own-brand sales, performed better than average. Despite the challenging conditions, Verkkokauppa.com continued to focus on operational efficiency and strategic growth projects, including expanding one-hour deliveries. The company updated its financial guidance for 2024, expecting lower revenue and operating results compared to 2023 unless there is a positive market turn in the latter half of the year. Key risks include changes in consumer behavior, supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical factors. Verkkokauppa.com also reported on its sustainability efforts, management changes, and shareholder information. The company held a Capital Markets Day in May and organized virtual news conferences for analysts and investors.

Verkkokauppa.com has revised its financial guidance for 2024, anticipating lower revenue and comparable operating results than in 2023, unless there is a positive market shift in the latter half of the year.

The new guidance contrasts with the earlier forecast, which expected revenue to remain at 2023 levels and an increase in comparable operating profit.
