In this environment, we managed to improve revenue in all our major markets. This was achieved despite limited access to campaign buys, which was a strong contributor to the first quarter last year, and also the timing of Easter having a negative impact. Our Nordic Department store KPIs remain strong - the average order value continues to increase on both Boozt.com and Booztlet.com, while around 51% of our customers now buy from more than one product category.

Balance sheet items refer to the position at the end of the period and are compared with the corresponding year earlier end of period, meaning March 31, 2023. The first quarter refers to the period January - March 2024. Net revenue For the first quarter, net revenue increased 6% (also 6% in local currency) to SEK 1,614 million (1,525). Market conditions in the quarter remained difficult with continued low consumer confidence and a high promotional activity. This, combined with a limited access to campaign buys compared with Q1 2023 as well as Q4 2023, had a significant impact on growth for the quarter. Finally, the timing of Easter had a negative impact on revenue growth for the quarter of roughly 2 percentage points. This will have the reverse effect on revenue growth for Q2 2024. The Easter weekend is traditionally not a high selling period and in 2024, Easter was in Q1 as opposed to Q2 in 2023. The challenging environment mainly impacted January, with sales improving in February and March. The improvement over the quarter was achieved despite limited support from the weather, which, as in Q1 2023, has delayed sales of the Spring/ Summer collection. Growth was mainly driven by an increase in the average order value (AOV) on Boozt.com and Booztlet.com, which increased to SEK 964 (935) and SEK 979 (920), respectively, corresponding to increases of 3% and 6%. Additionally, Booztlet was supported by a significant increase in active customers in the quarter (+13%). The improvements in AOV was supported by an increase in customers putting more than one category in the basket further validating Boozt’s Nordic Department Store strategy. In Q1 2024, 51% of customers bought from more than one category compared with 50% in Q1 2023. Revenue growth in Q1 2024 was driven by both Boozt.com and Booztlet.com, which increased revenue with 4% and 13%, respectively. Other revenue Other revenue (included in revenue from Boozt.com and Booztlet.com) in the quarter was SEK 73 million (49), an increase of 49% compared with the same quarter last year. Growth was mainly driven by revenue from Boozt Media Partnership (BMP) as well as the newer division Boozt Data Intelligence (BDI), which was established in Q2 2023. BDI supports brand partners with valuable insights into customer behaviour and product performance. Other revenue includes revenue not directly related to product sales, such as income from Boozt Media Partnership, Boozt Data Intelligence, BooztPay and breakage from gift cards. Net revenue geographical split Revenue in the Nordics was SEK 1,429 million (1,396) in the quarter and increased 2% compared with the same quarter last year. Growth in the Nordics slowed down compared to previous quarters. This was driven by most markets in the region, which was impacted by the headwinds mentioned above. Revenue in the Rest of Europe was SEK 185 million (128) and increased 44% for the quarter. The increase was driven by a very strong performance in the region for both Boozt.com (+48%) and Booztlet.com (+36%), which was mainly driven by Germany. Denmark and Sweden remain Boozt’s largest markets and represented 35% and 34%, respectively, of net revenue in Q1 2024.

The gross margin was 38.9% (38.5%) and up +0.4pp compared with the same quarter last year. The increase was mainly driven by a higher share of revenue from Other revenue, which has a gross margin close to 100%. The improvement was partially offset by the conversion of a previous agent agreement into a wholesale agreement (done in Q2 2023), which had a negative impact of 0.9 percentage points in the quarter. The quarter remained high on promotional activity, mainly due to the January sale, however, the level of promotion was broadly in line with the same quarter last year. Operational costs Productivity improvements continue to support the fulfilment cost ratio and in Q1 2024 the ratio declined 0.5pp compared with Q1 2023 to 11.6% (12.1%). The improved ratio was driven by a highly competitive distribution setup with a more disciplined effort to guide customers to the optimal carrier from a cost and service perspective. Additionally, improvements continued to materialise at the fulfilment center driven by productivity gains supported by strong cost control. Finally, the fulfilment ratio continues to benefit from the increase in average order value. The marketing cost ratio for the quarter was on par with the same quarter last year at 10.0% (10.0%). Boozt continues to gain benefits from lower cost-per-click in the Nordic market. The company aims to continue a high marketing spend to attract new customers along with further efforts to build Boozt as a household brand in the Nordics via offline marketing efforts. The adjusted admin and other cost ratio increased with 0.8pp to 13.3% (12.5%). The increase was mainly due to an increase in white collar workers from around 580 FTEs at the end of Q1 2023 to around 650 FTEs at the end of Q1 2024. The number of total employees are sligthly down compared with last year. This was mainly driven by productivity gains in the fulfilment center, as well as a shift from part time to full time employees at the fulfilment center. The deprecation cost ratio for the quarter was in line with last year at 4.1% (4.0%). As per January 2023, the latest expansion of the automated warehouse capacity was taken into operation increasing depreciations and we expect to gradually grow into the current excess capacity over the next couple of years. Adjusted EBIT In Q1 2024, adjusted EBIT increased 17% compared with last year to SEK 20 million (17). The adjusted EBIT margin increased 0.1 percentage point to 1.2% (1.1%). The improvements in the gross margin and the fulfilment ratio were largely offset by the increase in the adjusted admin and other cost ratio. Total adjustments in the quarter amounted to SEK 23 million (19). The adjustments for the quarter was all related to share-based payments. Costs related to share-based payments fluctuate between periods as the probability of the number of performance shares under the programs are dynamic. Also, the provision for social charges are determined by the company's share price. For a reconciliation of adjusted EBIT, please visit the Group’s website www.booztgroup.com/reports-and-presentations, “Q1 Report 2024” – “Financial data”. EBIT EBIT declined 16% to SEK -3 million (-2) in Q1 2024 corresponding to an EBIT margin of -0.2% (-0.2%), unchanged compared with the same quarter last year. Financial items Net financial items for the quarter totalled SEK -5 million (-3). Financial income amounted to SEK 7 million (6) in Q1 2024, and was mainly related to positive interests on the company’s cash position. Financial expenses were SEK -11 million (-9) of which SEK -7 million (-7) were related to interest on loans for financing the expansion of AutoStore and SEK -5 million (-2) were related to interest on leasing contracts according to IFRS 16. Tax Tax for Q1 2024 had a net positive effect and amounted to SEK 10 million (1). The Group’s effective tax rate for the period was -131.3% (-15.2%). During the quarter, the Group reports a positive tax effect of SEK 9 million regarding previous years' taxation. The effect is related to a tax benefit, which relates to an investment grant received in 2021 during COVID. Profit for the period Profit for the first quarter totalled SEK 2 million (-5) resulting in earnings per share before dilution of SEK 0.04 (-0.08). Earnings per share after dilution amounted to SEK 0.04 (-0.07). Net Working capital Net working capital at the end of Q1 2024 was SEK 993 million (664) equivalent to 12.7% (9.7%) of net revenue for the last 12 months. The absolute increase was mainly due to an increase in inventory. The increase in net working capital as a percentage of revenue compared with Q1 2023 was mainly due to accounts payable. Inventory as a percentage of revenue was unchanged at 33.1% (33.0%) compared with Q1 2023, while inventory in absolute terms increased to SEK 2,597 million (2,260). The absolute increase was mainly related to the decision to expand and improve the offering on Booztlet.com during 2023. Finally, the aforementioned conversion of an agent agreement to a wholesale agreement during Q2 2023 increased inventory with roughly SEK 40 million. Accounts payable increased to SEK 1,397 million (1,302) at the end of Q1 2024. However, as a percentage of net revenue for the last 12 months it declined to 17.8% compared with 19.0% at the end of Q1 2023. Accounts receivable was SEK 55 million (33) at the end of the period corresponding to 0.7% (0.5%) of net revenue for the last 12 months.

The slight improvement was mainly due to cash flow from operations. Free cash flow also slightly improved for the quarter to SEK -685 million (-731). Cash flow from operations Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK -588 million (-697) in the quarter. The improvement compared with last year was due to less impact from changes in net working capital, mainly related to accounts payables. Cash flow from investments Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -97 million (-34). The increase was due to investments in fixed assets increasing to SEK -70 million (-10). The investments was mainly related to the fulfilment center in Ängelholm, where installation of transfer cells was initiated during the quarter. These will connect the three AutoStore installations and enable automation of consolidation of orders. The transfer cells will be fully operational from end of October this year and provide both cost savings and increased output capacity. Cash flow from investments in intangible assets was SEK -26 million (-24) and mainly related to investments in the IT infrastructure. Cash flow from financing Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -91 million compared with SEK -83 million in Q1 2023. Repayments of loans (mainly related to the AutoStore expansion in 2022) declined to SEK -24 million (-119). However, this was more than offset by repurchase of own shares as part of the ongoing share buyback program. During the first quarter, Boozt repurchased own shares to the value of SEK 98 million (0). Cash position At the end of Q1 2024, the Group had a net cash position of SEK 236 million compared with SEK 456 million at the end Q1 2023. The net debt / net cash excludes leasing liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents decreased to SEK 687 million (965), driven among other things by the repurchase own shares for SEK 187 million (0) in total during the last 12 months as part of the Company's share buyback program. HIGHLIGHTS BUSINESS REVIEW FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ===== SIDA 9 ===== B O O Z T G R O U PQ 1 2 0 2 4P A G E _9 Boozt.com Net revenue In Q1 2024, net revenue from Boozt.com was SEK 1,335 million (1,279), corresponding to an increase of 4% (also 4% in local currency). Revenue growth was mainly driven by a continued improvement of the average order value, which increased to SEK 964 (935), corresponding to an increase of 3%. The increase was mainly driven by an increase in customers shopping across more than one category. Number of active customers on Boozt.com, which is defined as customers shopping in the last 12 months, increased to 2.7 million compared with 2.5 million in the same period last year. However, the increase was mainly driven by the strong uptake of customers during the fourth quarter last year. The number of customers shopping at Boozt.com in Q1 2024 isolated was largely unchanged compared to the first quarter last year. Revenue in the Nordics increased 1%, while revenue from the Rest of Europe was up 48%. The increase in the Nordics was supported by a good development in Finland and Iceland, while revenue in Sweden slightly declined (-2%) impacted by the low consumer confidence in the country. In the Rest of Europe, the Baltics continues to perform well, driven by continuous focus on the three countries. Furthermore, the region was supported by an improvement in sales in Germany. Following several adjustments on Boozt.com in Germany, which has shown great results, including implementation of return fees, investments in the country have increased. True frequency was 6.9 (6.9) with cohorts displaying encouraging buying patterns despite the ongoing pressure on consumers' disposable income. Customer satisfaction remained at a high level as shown by a Trustpilot score of 4.5 (4.5) and a Net Promoter Score of 77 (75). Adjusted EBIT and EBIT Adjusted EBIT declined to SEK 13 million (22) in the quarter, while the adjusted EBIT margin decreased 0.8pp to 0.9% (1.7%). The margin decline was mainly due to the higher share of administrative costs mentioned on page 7. The adjustment in the quarter amounted to SEK 19 million (16) and consisted of costs related to share-based payments. EBIT for the quarter declined to SEK -6 million (6) corresponding to an EBIT margin of -0.5% (0.4%).

As was the case in H2 2023, Booztlet.com has continued to benefit from the changes made to the site in Q2 2023. As part of the updated strategy to refine the outlet to become more than mainly a clearance channel for the Group, the offering on Booztlet was expanded to include more categories (Sports, Beauty and Home) as well as more never-out-of-stock (NOOS) products. The improved results were achieved despite a continuous highly promotional market as well as the impression that the more price-conscious customer (targeted by Booztlet) has experienced a more notable relative decline in disposable income. The latter is evident from the increasing number of customers who have reduced their shopping frequency. Revenue from the Nordics was SEK 228 million (209) and increased 9% compared with Q1 2023, while the Rest of Europe experienced a growth of 36% to SEK 51 million (37) following increased focus on the region for Booztlet.com. The number of active customers on Booztlet.com increased 13% in Q1 2024, showing that the improvements done on Booztlet.com in the second quarter continues to attract new customers. The average order value for the quarter was SEK 979 (920) and increased 6% compared to the same quarter last year. The positive developments are mainly driven by an increased number of items per basket supported by the broader assortment on the site following the updated strategy. Finally, as a natural consequence of the new strategy for Booztlet, including a broader and deeper offering on the site, inventory has increased. This impacts the Group’s net working capital negatively but is a prerequisite to drive the higher growth rates for Booztlet. However, the majority of the investment in inventory relates to NOOS and campaign stock which has a lower inventory risk than in-season stock. Adjusted EBIT and EBIT Adjusted EBIT amounted to SEK 7 million (-5) in the quarter, and the adjusted EBIT margin increased to 2.6% (-2.0%). The increase in profitability was mainly driven by the higher revenue combined with the increase in average order value. The adjustment in the quarter amounted to SEK 4 million (3) and consisted fully of costs related to share-based payments. EBIT for the first quarter improved compared to last year to SEK 3 million (-8) corresponding to an EBIT margin of 1.1% (-3.3%).

In this pursuit, sustainability is a crucial building block for our long-term business success, ensuring that we meet the needs of our stakeholders. With the help of a clear vision and strategy, we intend to amplify our efforts and share best practices that can influence a more sustainable industry. Care-For strategy The sustainability Care-For strategy is the roadmap for how to become the leading e-commerce company in the Nordics. To cement our efforts across the relevant areas in alignment with our commitment to the ongoing B Corp certification, Boozt's efforts are focused on four dimensions: Environment, Employees, Community and Governance. Within each dimension, Boozt is working with three goal areas and has set targets to support the sustainability Care-For strategy. Progress on goal areas and targets can be found on page 12, ‘Development per goal area’. CSRD and ESRS Implementation Boozt is committed to continuous improvement in its sustainability practices. Over the past two years, Boozt has consistently reported on selected ESG KPIs and highlights on a quarterly basis. With the recent shift in the legislative landscape with the upcoming Corporate Reporting Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) regulation and its European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), Boozt is adapting to embrace stricter, unified standards that will ultimately drive meaningful change within the industry. While Boozt’s quarterly reporting undergoes changes to align with the upcoming CSRD and ESRS regulations, stakeholders will stay informed about Boozt's ongoing ESG initiatives and projects through the section ‘Development per goal area’. Boozt is actively preparing for the new CSRD and ESRS regulations. In terms of completed steps and milestones, Boozt initiated the implementation journey in 2023, by deciding to add the ESRS solution for enhanced management and reporting into the ESG software Position Green. Boozt completed the impact perspective as part of the Double-Materiality assessment. This step involved a comprehensive evaluation of Boozt's business context, value chain, and reporting scope, followed by stakeholder engagement and research to define material topics and data priorities. This step laid the groundwork for identifying and assessing Boozt’s material topics and reporting scope. Boozt conducted a gap analysis to identify material topics, and areas for improvement and define data collection priorities. The next step is to assess the financial perspective with key internal stakeholders. Currently, Boozt is setting up the data management system for ESRS. This involves incorporating the full ESRS framework, encompassing over 1,000 data points according to the material topics, allowing data collection testing. Boozt will continue to report on the progress of the CSRD implementation in the Q2 report.

HIGHLIGHTS BUSINESS REVIEW FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ===== SIDA 13 ===== B O O Z T G R O U PQ 1 2 0 2 4P A G E _1 3 Outlook Outlook 2024 The outlook for 2024 is unchanged. For the full year 2024, Boozt expects a net revenue growth in the range of 5-15% and an adjusted EBIT margin of 5.2-6.0%. Revenue growth for 2024 is expected to be supported by market share gains as well as an increase in online penetration across Boozt’s product categories. Boozt expects the market to continue to be volatile, however, the outlook assumes a stable to improving consumer confidence following two difficult years. Profitability is expected to continue to benefit from economies of scale as well as potential cost initiatives across the Group. CAPEX for 2024 is expected to be in the range of SEK 150-250 million. This will mainly be related to IT development costs as expansion of the Company’s fulfilment capacity is not expected to commence before 2025. The outlook for 2024 assumes that the exchange rates will remain at the current level. Assuming current exchange rates versus the Swedish Krona, the impact from currency on revenue growth is expected to be around -1%. Long-term growth and profitability ambitions In connection with the Capital Markets Day in March 2023, Boozt announced long-term ambitions for growth and profitability. Long-term growth and profitability ambitions: • Market share around 10% of the total fashion and lifestyle market in the Nordics • Adjusted EBIT margin exceeding 10% Boozt has successfully managed to grow net revenue significantly faster than the Nordic market since 2017. The market in the Nordics remains attractive and the company expects to continue the accelerated market share gains supported by the position as the leading Nordic Department Store. When the Company’s growth rate is in line with the Nordic online fashion and lifestyle market, Boozt believes that its business model with best-in-industry unit economics will result in double- digit margins and strong cash generation. However, the target to reach an adjusted EBIT margin of 10% is the ambition already in five years. Outlook 2024 As of 8 February, 2024 Reported, FY 2023 Revenue growth 5-15% 15% Adjusted EBIT margin 5.2-6.0% 5.2% The outlook assumes constant currencies from the time of this announcement and for the remainder of the financial year HIGHLIGHTS BUSINESS REVIEW FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ===== SIDA 14 ===== B O O Z T G R O U PQ 1 2 0 2 4P A G E _1 4 Other information Significant events during Q1 2024 No significant events occurred in the quarter.

Treasury shares In 2023, the Board of Directors launched Boozt’s first share buyback program, aimed at repurchasing company shares worth up to SEK 200 million. The program commenced on June 21, 2023, and was authorized until the Annual General Meeting on April 25, 2024. The program has now concluded, with a total expenditure of SEK 187 million, equivalent to the repurchase of 1,615,819 ordinary shares. As of the date of this report, the Company now holds 4.9% of the share capital in Boozt or a total of 3,360,686 treasury shares, of which 1,744,867 are classified as C-shares. The Board of Directors has determined that the shares acquired through the buyback program will be retained for the purpose of facilitating the delivery of performance shares to senior executives and key employees participating in the current and future Long-Term Incentive (LTI) programs approved by the Annual General Meeting.

Parent company Net revenue of the parent company amounted to SEK 24 million (17) In Q1 2024. The parent company has invoiced fees for management services in accordance with the Group’s intracompany agreements to other Group companies during the period. Costs for the period are mainly attributable to costs related to personnel costs for the Group Management and remuneration to the Board of Directors. Net profit for the quarter totalled SEK -22 million (-11). Seasonal variances Seasonal variances affect the Group since purchases are cyclical and inventories are built up before each season. However, each quarter is comparable between years. Traditionally the fourth quarter has the highest net revenue, whereas the first quarter has the lowest. Inventory levels in the industry can be affected by an early or late start to the season impacting the promotional activities needed to clear inventory.

Identified risks are reviewed by the Board of Directors continuously. No recognisable risk for the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern has been identified.
