Vladimir Sorokin,
Chief Executive Officer:
|
«Our business remains stable and flexible despite serious challenges in 2022 for both retail industry and the entire Russian economy. Throughout the year, the Lenta team focused on adapting to the new business environment. The measures we implemented drove solid performance and enabled us to maintain operational efficiency and, of course, to continue to meet the daily needs of our customers in terms of fresh products and quality essentials.
In 2022, Lenta’s retail sales grew by 11.4%. Our online business doubled last year, with revenue from online sales reaching 7.5% of Lenta’s total sales for the year. Despite the substantial transformation of our business, the development of our small-format stores and the growing share of our online business, we were able to improve our operational efficiency considerably in the fourth quarter. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue in the fourth quarter decreased by 61 basis points.
We completed the integration of Billa and Semya chains last year; all Billa stores are now operating under the Lenta brand. In addition, we fully integrated all acquired stores into the Company’s operating processes. One important focal point of our work last year was the establishment of a team devoted for the development of our small-format stores. We now have a Small-Format Division that is going to focus on improving our supermarkets and convenience stores and expanding in this segment. Moreover, we continued to develop our online business throughout 2022, which included efforts to amalgamate the operating models for Lenta Online and Utkonos. Thanks to the concerted efforts of our Lenta-U team, we were able to greatly improve the efficiency of our online business, and we plan to continue working on this going forward.
The year 2023 is an important one for us: it marks Lenta’s 30th anniversary, and we have big plans for the year. Despite turbulence in the business environment, we remain committed to Lenta’s key development priorities, including restoring LFL growth at hypermarkets, increasing margins, and expanding and developing new formats and our online business.
Instead of standing still, we are looking for new formats and approaches to doing business that will continue to meet the needs of our customers to the best of our ability. In February 2023, we launched a pilot project for a new hypereconomy format in St Petersburg, where we offer our customers better prices while providing the fairly broad product range found in our hypermarkets, which is especially important at a time when consumers are facing rising prices. We are testing a number of innovations in underperforming stores in order to find the best options for reducing operating costs and increasing sales density. The pilot project is our response to the needs of customers focused on savings and who want a choice of products in lower price segments.
This project, like our results for 2022 as a whole, would not have been possible without the dedicated and professional work of our team. I would like to thank all Lenta employees, and I am looking forward to seeing what we can accomplish together in 2023».

For the Q4 & FY 2022 cash flow statement prepared in accordance with IFRS 16, please refer to Appendix 1
Capital Expenditures in Q4 2022 amounted to RUB 2.0 billion, and decreased by 31.7% year-over-year. This decreased resulted from the fewer new store openings in Q4 2022 compared to Q4 2021.
The Company’s Profit before Income Tax for Q4 2022 was RUB 0.9 billion compared to RUB 5.7 billion in Q4 2021. The decrease in Profit before income tax was mainly the result of a 29.8% year-over-year decline in Operating Profit before Impairment and significant impairment primarily related to Utkonos assets compared to minor reversal of impairment in Q4 2021.
In Q4 2022, Net Cash generated from Operating Activities (pre–IFRS 16) amounted to RUB 18.9 billion, compared to RUB 19.3 billion in the previous year. These dynamics resulted from the decrease in Profit before income tax, which was offset by the higher positive movement of Working Capital, higher D&A and lower Net income tax paid.
Net Cash used in Investing Activities was 8.2 billion compared to 2.9 billion for the same period of the previous year.
In Q4 2022, Net Cash used in Financing Activities amounted to RUB 5.0 billion, compared to RUB 0.04 billion in Q4 2021.
Free Cash Flow for Q4 2022 was RUB 10.7 billion, which was RUB 5.7 billion lower than in Q4 2021, mainly due to higher Net Cash used in Investing Activities.
Capital Expenditures for FY 2022 amounted to RUB 11.0 billion, and increased by 17.8% year-over-year. FY 2022 Capital Expenditures were primarily related to new small-format store openings, integration of Billa, Semya and Unkonos, and IT-systems development.
Free Cash Flow for FY 2022 was RUB 2.9 billion, and increased by 5.3% year-over-year, mainly due to significant decrease of Net Cash used in Investing Activities which was partially offset by the decline in Net Cash generated from Operating Activities.
