Revenues
Revenue increased by 31.0% (18.8% in USD) year-on-year to RUB 57.9 bln (USD 1.6 bln), driven by organic

2014.

increased shrinkage costs, and offset partially by better commercial terms from suppliers.
Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 20 basis points year-on-year to 66.5% of sales in the third
quarter of 2014, driven by better purchasing terms. Shrinkage costs, as a percentage of sales, increased by 70 basis
points year-on-year to 2.6% of sales in the third quarter of 2014, due mainly to growing share of fresh categories,
especially, fruits and vegetables, in DIXY stores revenue. Transportation costs, as a percentage of sales, remained

(USD 409.6 mln) in the third quarter of 2014.
SG&A expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 160 basis points year-on-year to 25.6%. The decrease was
driven mainly by the reduction of staff expenses and utilities, repair and maintenance expenses, as a percentage of

Staff expenses increased by 20.8% (9.5% in USD) year-on-year to RUB 6.9 bln (USD 191.6 mln) in the third quarter
of 2014, due primarily to organic growth of the business and wage indexations. Staff expenses, as a percentage of

and strong like-for-like stores performance.

lease expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased by 10 basis points year-on-year to 6.0% in the third quarter of
2014, mainly, because of growing share of rented space and larger number of newly opened stores in the first nine
months of 2014 compared to the same period last year.
Utilities, repair and maintenance expenses increased by 11.5% (1.1% in USD) year-on-year to RUB 1.2 bln (USD
33.9 mln) in the third quarter of 2014, due mainly to utilities tariffs indexation. Utilities, repair and maintenance
expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 40 basis points year-on-year to 2.1% in the third quarter of 2014,
due mainly to strong like-for-like stores performance.

Operating and Net Profits
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by 35.0% (22.4% in USD) year-on-year to RUB 1.7 bln (USD
