Aramis Group [Ticker: ARAMI - ISIN: FR0014003U94], a European leader in the online sale of used cars to private individuals, which includes the Aramisauto, Cardoen, Clicars and CarSupermarket brands in France, Belgium, Spain and the United Kingdom respectively, today published its annual results for financial year ended 30 September 2021.
Nicolas Chartier and Guillaume Paoli, co-founders 3 of Aramis Group, say:
'In 2021, Aramis Group achieved an exceptional performance, despite the pandemic and the automotive market context, largely exceeding its growth objectives set at the time of the IPO. The Group has accelerated its investments to offer innovative, accessible and more virtuous mobility solutions to meet the expectations of its growing number of customers. The excellent performance of its refurbished used car business has enabled it to record strong growth in all its geographies. The Group's investments in marketing and in its technological platform have also paid off, with more than 73 million visits recorded this year on its websites. 2021 was also marked by the Group's continued European expansion with the acquisition in March of CarSupermarket in the United Kingdom. In an automotive market affected by significant pressure on new vehicles in Europe, the Group has demonstrated its agility in vehicles supply, which it has been able to increase and diversify in all its geographies. In 2022, this dynamic will accelerate further, driven by the development of refurbishment capacities with the planned opening of two new centres, in addition to the recent opening of the Antwerp centre. Aramis Group is therefore looking forward to 2022 with confidence, convinced that it is perfectly positioned to seize all growth opportunities and thus be the preferred platform for Europeans looking for a refurbished used vehicle.

The Group's pro forma revenue reached 1.361 billion euros in 2021, up by +279.7 million euros, or +25.9% compared to 2020. This solid performance is driven by very strong growth in the refurbished vehicles segment, in line with the Group's strategy.
Pro forma revenue in the refurbished cars segment is up +42.1% for the year ended 30 September 2021, to 712.7 million euros, representing 50,125 units delivered, up +37.4% versus 2020. This excellent performance is mainly driven by the marketing investments made in all geographies, the increase in the supply of vehicles coming from private individuals and the increase in capacity at the Group's refurbishment centres.
Throughout the year, and in order to cope with a constrained market context in terms of supply, the Group developed its vehicle trade-in business from private individuals in all its geographies. In Q4, on a pro forma basis, sales of refurbished cars from this supply channel thus increased by +42.6% compared to Q4 2020.
Revenue for the pre-registered car segment for the year ended September 30, 2021, amounts to 470.2 million euros, up +4.0% compared to 2020. This activity increase is achieved in a market context marked by a sharp decline in new car production.
Pro forma revenue for the B2C segment as a whole – corresponding to sales of refurbished and pre-registered cars – amounting to 1.183 billion euros in 2021, up +24.0% compared to 2020, representing 86.9% of Group revenue.
Pro forma revenue from S ervices rise by +49.7% in 2021, to 71.2 million euros, with an increase in the penetration rate of financing solutions in all geographies.
Pro forma revenue for the B2B segment amount to 107.0 million euros, or +33.7% compared to 2020. This strong growth reflects the increase in the sourcing of vehicles coming from private individuals, part of which is resold to professionals.
Further details, including a breakdown of 2021 revenue and volumes by geography, can be found in the Group's publication dated 9 November 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA
On a pro forma basis, gross margin reaches 185.3 million euros, up +20.1% compared to 2020, an increase of +31.1 million euros, to reach 13.5% of sales, compared to 14.2% in 2020.
Gross margin per vehicle sold is 2,292 euros on a pro forma basis, a high level and among the best in the market, comparable to the level achieved in 2020. In line with its growth strategy, the Group has significantly increased its marketing and sales expenses in all geographies, as well as its workforce.
As a result, SG&A expenses amount to 148.0 million euros in 2021 on a pro forma basis, an increase of +41.4 million euros compared to 2020. This investment has enabled the Group to consolidate awareness of its brands in Europe, particularly in Belgium and in France where brands reached levels of aided awareness of over 65%4.
As a result of these investments to accelerate growth, the Group has achieved an adjusted EBITDA on a pro forma basis of 37.2 million euros in 2021 compared to 47.6 million euros in 2020 and thus records an adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.7% in 2021, as anticipated and previously communicated.
Operating profit
On a pro forma basis, acquisition-related personnel expenses amount to 20.0 million euros in 2021, compared to 21.2 million euros in 2020.

Depreciation expenses amount to 17.5 million euros in 2021 on a pro forma basis, slightly higher than in 2020, in line with the Group's increased capital expenditure.
As a result, the Group's operating result for the year 2021 is -7.5 million euros on a pro forma basis.

| Stocks | 173.8 | 69.1 | +104.7 |
| Trade receivables | 23.7 | 21.9 | +1.8 |
| Trade payables | 46.6 | 22.8 | +23.8 |
Stocks amount to 173.8 million euros on 30 September 2021, including the impact of the integration of CarSupermarket in the perimeter on 1 March 2021 for an amount of 28.6 million euros. Excluding the scope effect, the increase in the stock level amounts to +76.1 million euros, reflecting the strong growth in business in 2021 within a more constrained supply environment. The level of operating working capital5 stood at 34 days, in line with the revised guidance communicated to the market in September 2021.
| In M€ | FY 2021 | FY 2020 |
| Change in WC | -54.6 | +16.4 |
| Capex | -12.2 | -7.4 |
| Acquisition of subsidiaries | -41.7 | - |
| Capital increase (net of expenses) | +235.1 | - |
| Net cash (or debt) position | +102.0 | -26.3 |
The change in working capital amounts to -54.6 million euros in the year ended 30 September 2021, mainly due to the increase in inventories, excluding the scope effect.
For the year ended 30 September 2020, the change in working capital amounted to +16.4 million euros due to the significantly lower inventory level than the normative levels, a consequence brought about by the start of the Covid-19 health crisis in fiscal year 2020.
The acquisitions of fixed assets represent 12.2 million euros in respect of the 2021 fiscal year, taking into account the Group's investments in its refurbishment capacity and in the development of its technological platform.
Acquisition-related cash outflows, net of cash acquired, amount to 41.7 million euros in the year ended 30 September 2021, and result from the acquisition of CarSupermarket.
In the context of the IPO on 18 June 2021, the Group carried out a capital increase of 235.1 million euros, net of transaction costs.
As of 30 September 2021, the Group benefits from a strong cash position and significant financial flexibility to support its accelerated growth. The Group shows a net cash position of 102 million euros as of 30 September 2021, compared to a net debt position6 of 26.3 million euros as of 30 September 2020. Furthermore, the Group has a significant financial flexibility with substantial credit facilities, in particular 200 million euros RCF put in place at the time of the IPO and undrawn to date, and credit facilities from its majority shareholder Stellantis and financial institutions. Only 4.5 million euros of the Group's credit facilities were drawn as of 30 September 2021.
OUTLOOK
In 2022, Aramis Group intends to pursue its growth strategy centred around the refurbished vehicle segment, which is experiencing excellent momentum. The pre-registered vehicle segment, on the other hand, is expected to remain significantly affected by the tensions in the new vehicle market.
The Group will continue to develop its offer in order to strengthen the customer experience which is at the heart of its strategy. The growth of the Group will also be fuelled by its marketing investments and by the sustained development of its refurbishment capacity with the opening and ramp-up of three refurbishment centres in 2022, including the one recently inaugurated in Antwerp, for which Aramis Group benefits from unique know-how and experience.
In addition, the Group will continue to strengthen its agile and multi-channel supply platform, both from private individuals and professionals as well as from Stellantis. Finally, the Group is actively working on pursuing its European expansion through acquisitions, taking advantage of its strong track-record in integrating new countries.
As a responsible and committed company, Aramis Group also intends to continue reducing its carbon footprint and reaffirms its objectives of reducing its CO2 emissions by -40% for scopes 1 and 2 by 2030. For the year 2021, CO2 emissions per vehicle sold are down by -8%7 on these scopes.
In addition, the refurbished vehicle segment, which is at the heart of the circular economy, is expected to account for more than 75% of the total number of cars sold to private customers by the Group by 2025.
In this context, the Group is upgrading its growth objectives for 2022 initially communicated at the time of the IPO in June 2021:
- Growth superior to +45% in refurbished car deliveries (vs. growth > +30% initially)
- Total Group revenue above 1.6 billion euros (vs. revenue >1.5 billion euros initially)
In addition, the Group has set an adjusted EBITDA margin objective of approximately 1.5% of revenue. As indicated at the time of the IPO, the adjusted EBITDA margin should continue to be impacted in 2022 by the significant investments made by the Group, particularly in marketing, in order to accelerate its growth. As part of its medium-term objectives, the Group reiterates that it is aiming at an adjusted EBITDA margin of above 3.0% in 2025.
These objectives are established on the basis of the Group's scope of activity on 30 September 2021 and do not take into consideration further deterioration of the sanitary context in the countries where the Group operates.
Status of audit procedures
At its meeting on 8 December 2021, the Board of Directors of Aramis Group approved the parent company and consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2021. With regard to the process of certification of the accounts, the statutory auditors have to date substantially completed the audit procedures.
