Business review by banner:
Monoprix net sales changed by -3.0% on a same-store basis over the quarter, affected by a soft market in Paris region. The trend has improved significantly over the last four weeks (up +2.6%). Food
e-commerce continues to enjoy vigorous growth, lifted by partnerships with Ocado, Amazon, Uber Eats and Deliveroo, as well as the ramp-up of the partnership with Gorillas, which is now supplied by Monoprix. During the quarter, the banner also continued to expand its store network, with 11 store openings (9 Monop' and 2 Naturalia stores).Franprix reported a change of -2.2% in same-store sales for the quarter, while its sales to franchisees grew by +6.1%. The banner is still affected by lower consumption in the Paris market, although the trend is positive in the Parisian suburbs and very positive outside the capital, areas where Franprix is focusing its expansion strategy. Same-store sales improved sharply over the last four weeks, with growth of +2.0%. Franprix opened 42 stores during the three months to 31 March. E-commerce delivered robust growth, driven by home delivery via the website and the app, as well as the roll-out of the Uber Eats and Deliveroo partnerships.
Convenience store net sales grew by +3.7% on a same-store basis, with a notable sequential improvement (down -1.3% in Q3 2021, down -0.7% in Q4 2021). Sales to franchisees rose by +10.5% over the period. E-commerce sales were boosted by the continued development of the partnerships with Uber Eats and Deliveroo and of the website, which now enables 1,380 Convenience stores to offer an
e-commerce solution. Expansion continued apace, with 142 new stores openings since the beginning of the year.Casino Supermarkets recorded a -2.5% change in same-store sales, representing a sequential improvement on Q3 2021 (-3.7%) and Q4 2021 (-3.5%). Following the conversion of 9 Géant hypermarkets into Casino Supermarkets in July 2021, the Group plans to convert a further 20 Géant hypermarkets into Casino Supermarkets in the second quarter, reallocating store space to food items.
Sales at Géant Hypermarkets were down -1.1% on a same-store basis, improving sequentially compared to Q3 2021 (-9.5%) and Q4 2021 (-4.9%). The shop-in-shop strategy continued with the roll-out of apparel (42 C&A corners) and urban mobility (53 Surpass corners) retail spaces.
GreenYellow
As of 31 March 2022, the outlook for GreenYellow remains excellent in the fast-growing photovoltaic and decentralised energy transition market, with a solar PV pipeline of 4.3 GW, including an advanced pipeline of 0.8 GW13 and a pipeline of additional opportunities of 3.5 GW14.
This first quarter underlines GreenYellow's ambition to deploy its platform on a very significant scale, particularly in Europe and Asia. This includes:
the launch or connection of more than 30 MW of solar installations in France, for self-supply or grid injection, notably via solar roofs for the Panhard group and car park canopies for Invesco Real Estate;
the opening of an office in Poland in March 2022 to drive a sharp acceleration of the business in high-potential Central European markets (Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania). GreenYellow is targeting nearly 100 MW in Central and Eastern Europe over the next two years;
the support for the Ricoh industrial group in Thailand, with the construction of a 4 MW rooftop solar plant that will enable the group to reduce its dependence on the electricity grid, significantly reduce its electricity costs and contribute to its objective of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.
GreenYellow was awarded the EcoVadis Gold Metal for its CSR performance, consolidating its position as a leader and pioneer in corporate social responsibility.
RelevanC
RelevanC maintained its growth momentum in Q1 2022, in particular:
expansion of the Everli partnership into Italy and Poland. Everli, the leading home shopping delivery service through personal shoppers, chose RelevanC technology to integrate into its own advertising solution to further personalise advertisements on its website and apps in Europe;
launch of the white label retail media solution with GPA in Brazil, marking the start of the international expansion of its solution for retailers and e-commerce operators.
Cdiscount15
In a market impacted by an unfavourable basis of comparison due to the Covid-19 curfew in Q1 2021, Cdiscount reported a -9% change in GMV. Compared to the pre-pandemic period (Q1 2019), Cdiscount has continued to develop its three strategic areas of focus:
Marketplace GMV increased by +22% versus 2019, while direct sales decreased by -24% in line with the strategy to improve the business mix. This drove an increase in the marketplace contribution of
+12 pts over the period to stand at 48% of GMV (+2 pts versus 2021);Digital marketing revenues doubled compared to 2019 (+15% year-on-year), driven by the CARS (Cdiscount Ads Retail Solution) digital marketing platform;
Octopia saw continued fast-paced expansion, signing five new major contracts during the quarter, bringing expected clients’ GMV backlog to more than €1bn on contracts duration.
The Cdiscount à Volonté loyalty programme now has 2.5 million members, an increase of +34% compared to 2019 (+8% versus 2021).

Latam Retail
The Group's net sales in Latin America (Assaí, GPA Brazil and Grupo Éxito) rose by +9.7% on a same-store basis and by +5.8% on an organic basis. The quarter was shaped by excellent performances from Assaí and Grupo Éxito.

GPA Brazil's net sales rose by +1.0%1 on a same-store basis and contracted -34% on an organic basis due to the hypermarket closures. Excluding the hypermarket closure effect, the year-on-year growth in online sales came out at +44%.

The Compre Bem and Mercado Extra banners delivered same-store growth of +0.6%1;
Pão de Açúcar (+0.1%1) enjoyed stable growth despite a decline in the premium store market according to Nielsen.
Grupo Éxito's net sales for the quarter rose by +20.8%1 on a same-store basis, with growth in all three of the Group's operating countries, mainly due to the increase in store traffic following the resumption in business and the recovery of tourism. Omni-channel sales accounted for 9.4% of the total for the quarter.
Colombia: strong same-store growth of +20.2%1, driven by the Carulla format with sharp omni-channel sales growth of +17%;
Uruguay: growth of +11.8%1 on a same-store basis, reflecting a marked improvement in the business environment due to the recovery in tourism since the end of 2021, more favourable consumer sentiment and lower inflation;
