According to SEB Group's announcement, SEB Group's revenue increased 2.3% year on year in the second quarter. Among them, professional coffee machine business revenue increased 4.9% year on year and consumer business increased 2.9% year on year. According to the LFL scale, the consumer business achieved positive growth of more than 5% for five consecutive quarters since 2023Q2. SEB Group's steady performance also built a solid foundation for the company's strong export sales business.
Domestic sales business is growing steadily. The company's domestic sales business achieved revenue of 7.509 billion yuan in the first half of the year, an increase of 0.10% over the previous year. Demand in the domestic small kitchen appliance industry was under pressure in the first half of the year. According to Aowei Cloud's omni-channel summary data, retail sales of small kitchen appliances rose slightly by 0.4% year on year in January-June, but retail sales fell 5.4% year on year due to falling average prices. The company's domestic sales business maintained a steady trend in the context of industry pressure, demonstrating the resilience of leading businesses.
Profit side. The company's gross margin fell 1.02 pct to 24.40% year on year in the first half of the year. Among them, the gross margin for single Q2 fell 1.24 pct year on year to 24.38%, mainly due to the structural impact of the share of revenue from export sales.
Looking at the breakdown, the gross margin of domestic and foreign sales of 2024H changed year-on-year by -0.37pct/ +0.08pct, respectively, and remained relatively stable. On the cost side, the cost rate for the Q2 Supor period was 13.17%, down 1.00pct year on year. Among them, sales/management/ R&D/finance cost ratios were -1.08pct/ -0.04pct/+0.16pct/ -0.03pct, respectively. The decline in sales expenses was mainly affected by the increase in the dilution effect brought about by the year-on-year increase in revenue. Taken together, the company's Q2 net margin fell slightly by 0.4 pct to 8.4% year over year. In terms of cash flow, Q2's net operating cash flow was -0.495 billion yuan, mainly affected by a 3.79% year-on-year decrease in cash received from sales of goods and services. We estimate that it is mainly due to the increase in average account period due to the rapid growth of Q2's export business, which is expected to gradually improve in the second half of the year.
