In €mQ1 2020Q1 2021ChangeEBITDA172204+19%EBITDA after lease payments940+372% EBITDA was up +19% versus Q1 2020, in a context of lower net sales relative to the exceptionally high basis of comparison during the first lockdown. Retail banners: Further increase in profitability led by the cost saving and operational efficiency plans in place since second-half 2020;Net sales declined year-on-year, Q1 2020 having experienced exceptional demand relating to the first lockdown. Over two years, net sales were virtually stable on a same-store basis, with increases for the convenience banners and strong growth in E-commerce. The Group continued its development through its priority growth drivers: Very strong growth in food E-commerce (up +38% year-on-year and +97% versus Q1 2019), driven by exclusive partnerships in France with the industry's leading technology players: Success of the Ocado partnership: Monoprix Plus and Casino Plus deliveries from the O’logistique automated warehouse increased by +40% versus Q4 2020, and by +166% versus Q3 2020. The automated warehouse has already handled over €100m in home deliveries on an annualised basis;Further strengthening of Amazon partnership: the service covers 70% of the Île-de-France population, and Monoprix is now Amazon’s sole partner in express food delivery following the discontinuation of its own delivery service. Deployment of the expansion plan, with 115 convenience stores opened over the quarter, ahead of the target of 300 store openings by June, of which 100 in Q1 2021;These growth drivers, which strategically differentiate the Group, will continue to gain momentum in the upcoming quarters. Cdiscount: further profitable growth, with marketplace revenues rising +43% in Q1 to total €197m over 12 months:Marketplace GMV up +34% over the quarter, representing 46% of total GMV (+7 pts);Digital marketing up by a strong +43%;Accelerated expansion of the turnkey marketplace solution Octopia (+86%), a unique B2B offering which can provide 900,000 European merchant websites (€600bn in GMV) with top-class technology and logistics solutions, and a potential 100 million products and 13,000 vendors. GreenYellow: growth of the pipeline1, rising to 720 MWp including 200 MWp under construction (versus 565 MWp at end-2020), with an additional prospective pipeline of more than 2.5 GWp. RelevanC: growth in revenues, driven by a +50% increase in Retail Media business (activities with advertisers). In Q1 2021, RelevanC put in place drivers to accelerate its growth with (i) the partnership with the digital division of the TF1 group (26 million profiles), (ii) the acquisition of Inlead (a technology platform for local digital marketing that enables RelevanC to extend its offering), and (iii) the digital partnership with Intermarché. Financial structure: The Group successfully completed a €1.525bn refinancing transaction, extending the average maturity of its debt from 3.1 to 3.7 years while also reducing its average interest rate;The Group studies potential capital increases for GreenYellow and Cdiscount with the aim of accelerating their growth plans, potentially through market transactions. 1 Pipeline including GreenYellow’s joint ventures IN LATIN AMERICA Profitability up sharply with reported EBITDA up +32%2, from BRL 1.2bn to BRL 1.6bn. In Brazil, organic growth of +12.1% driven by Assaí (+21%1);The Group’s leading position in food E-commerce was strengthened, with GPA online sales up +137%2 in Brazil and Éxito Group online sales up +145%2.

O’logistique deliveries (Monoprix Plus and Casino Plus) increased by +40% versus Q4 2020, and by +166% versus Q3 2020. During the first quarter of 2021, the Géant Casino and Casino Supermarkets banners adopted a single website and a competitive, unified pricing policy9, setting up 400 pedestrian pick-up points in stores, with 290 of them also providing a home delivery service. The Group also signed a partnership agreement with Uber Eats, with services to be rolled out to around 500 stores by autumn 2021.The digitalisation of the customer experience continued over the quarter, with 558 stores now offering automated solutions (versus 533 at end-2020), enabling them to operate autonomously in the evening and on Sundays. 63% of payments at Géant hypermarkets and 53% at Casino Supermarkets were made by smartphone or automatic checkout (versus 61% and 48% at end-2020). CasinoMax app users accounted for 24% of sales in hypermarkets and supermarkets in the first quarter (versus 22% at end-2020). Business review by banner: Net sales at Monoprix were up slightly versus Q1 2019 (down -3.2% year-on-year) in a Parisian market in decline versus 2019 due to the temporary reduction in tourism and Parisians’ migration to other regions as health measures were tightened. E-commerce grew significantly in Q1 2021, driven by the ramp-up of Monoprix Plus via the O’logistique automated warehouse now offering more than 28,000 items (versus an average market offering of 15,000). In early April, the banner opened its first Cliquez&Retirez service (Monoprix Plus pedestrian Drive solution provided by O’logistique). After Paris, Nice, Lyon and Bordeaux, the partnership with Amazon was extended to Montpellier. Naturalia became France’s first food retailer to be awarded Benefit Corporation (B Corp) international certification, which attests to the banner’s firm commitment to social and environmental responsibility, the quality of its governance and its transparency with regard to its customers. Monoprix was also named Top Employer 2021 for the excellence of its HR practices. During the quarter, Monoprix continued to expand its store network, with 10 store openings (Monop’ and Naturalia) as well as the roll-out of autonomous solutions (204 stores to date, with 25 new deployments in Q1).Franprix reported same-store sales growth of +2.4% versus Q1 2019 (down -9.1% year-on-year). Robust sales in the Paris suburbs has offset lower levels of consumption in Paris compared to 2019, due to the temporary drop of the number of tourists and office workers, and Parisians’ migration to other regions. E-commerce continued its expansion with triple-digit growth, supported by the development of the E-commerce app and the website launched in 2020. The non-food expansion strategy was stepped up with the roll-out of Hema corners (268 stores versus 210 end-2020 and 134 end-Q3 2020). Franprix is now focusing on the expansion of its store network, and plans to open 150 points of sale over the next two years, primarily in the Paris and Lyon suburbs. The banner plans to open more than 50 stores this year (of which 6 opened in Q1 2021).Net sales in the Convenience segment continued their structural progression, at +3.5% on a same-store basis versus Q1 2019 (down -7.2% year-on-year, marked by an exceptional level of demand relating to the first lockdown). The expansion of the store network accelerated with 99 store openings over the quarter, primarily under the Vival and Spar banners and in rural regions. The Group continued to focus on innovation with the opening of a new “Casino # toutprès” concept store (5 stores at end-March), offering a wide range of self-service products with a focus on organic, local and private-label products, as well as convenience services and extended opening hours.Casino Supermarkets reported a -0.7% same-store decline versus Q1 2019, and a -7.6% same-store decline year-on-year, shaped by an exceptional level of demand associated with the first lockdown last year and the impact of the curfew in Q1 2021. E-commerce was once again a growth driver, led by partnerships with Deliveroo (93 supermarkets) and Shopopop (74 supermarkets), and the roll-out of Casino Plus, launched on 30 September 2020, a home delivery service from the O’logistique automated warehouse that offers over 21,000 items (versus an average market offering of 15,000). In addition, the banner continued to deploy autonomous solutions, with 205 stores offering such solutions to date.Sales at Géant Hypermarkets were down -8.3% on a same-store basis versus Q1 2019 and down -9.7% year-on-year, impacted by the roll-out of non-food corners, the impact of the curfew and the closure of non-food sections, and the drop in traffic due to the closure of shopping centres. E-commerce continued to grow, supported by partnerships with Uber Eats (20 stores), Deliveroo (15 stores) and Shopopop (55 stores). In addition, the “shop-in-shop” strategy continued at an accelerated pace with the roll-out of Hema corners (54 corners, of which a further 46 in Q1 2021), C&A corners (17, of which an additional 9 in Q1 2021), and Claire’s corners (64, of which a further 2 in Q1 2021). Lastly, the deployment of autonomous solutions continued, with 69 stores equipped to date. Cdiscount10 In Q1 2021, Cdiscount reported very strong momentum in the marketplace, with GMV up +34% over the quarter, and revenues (commissions and services to vendors) up +43%. The banner continued its profitable growth strategy, based on four priority areas: Growth of the marketplace, with (i) a sharp increase in GMV (+34%) and the marketplace contribution, which represented 46% of total GMV for the quarter (up +7.2 pts versus the prior-year period), and (ii) an acceleration in marketplace revenues (commissions, services to vendors, marketplace subscription fees and rebates), up +43% to reach €197m on a rolling 12-month basis. The Fulfillment by Cdiscount service grew by +42.5%;Product mix adjustments, with strong growth in higher margin and recurring purchase categories. The Home, DIY and Leisure categories reported a +29% increase for the quarter;Digital marketing, with revenues up +43% over the quarter, driven by the development of the Cdiscount Ads Retail Solution (CARS) digital marketing platform, which enables vendors and suppliers to promote their products and brands on a self-service platform. Also during the quarter, Cdiscount launched its Cdiscount Advertising platform, which will incorporate all existing digital marketing solutions;The acceleration of Octopia, the turnkey marketplace solution for retailers and e-merchants in the EMEA region. Octopia recorded GMV growth of +86% for the quarter versus international GMV achieved last year, and stepped up its development with more than 500 connected sites and an agreement signed with a first major EMEA client. In addition, Octopia developed the Géant marketplace, which has been running since 21 April.

In the first quarter, GreenYellow recorded a growth of its pipeline13, rising to 720 MWp including 200 MWp under construction (versus 565 MWp at end-2020), with an additional prospective pipeline of more than 2.5 GWp. The project pipeline for the energy efficiency business represents 355 GWh in annual savings, with an additional prospective pipeline of more than 600 GWh in savings. Data RelevanC posted revenue growth led by the excellent performance of the Retail Media business (activities with advertisers) which increased by +50%. During the quarter, RelevanC put in place a number of drivers to accelerate its growth, notably: A strategic partnership with Unify, the digital division of the TF1 group (Marmiton, AuFéminin, Doctissimo etc.), granting access to 26 million profiles;Acquisition of Inlead, a local digital marketing platform enabling RelevanC to extend its offering in the SMB market in France and abroad;Digital partnership with Intermarché: RelevanC will provide its expertise and technologies to the digital joint venture set up by Casino and Intermarché to offer Retail Media services and products to food brands. This joint venture will leverage the transaction data volumes of the two banners. Latam Retail Sales in Latin America (Assaí, Multivarejo and Éxito Group) rose by +4.0% on a same-store basis and by +8.4% on an organic basis during the quarter, despite the high comparison base in March and the tightening of health measures due to the worsening of the Covid-19 pandemic in the region. The reported EBITDA of Assaí and GPA (including Éxito Group) was up +32%14, from BRL 1.2bn to BRL 1.6bn. In Brazil, net sales increased by +6.4% on a same-store basis and by +12.1% on an organic basis:Assaí reported +21%1 organic growth (+50% versus Q1 2019), with significant market share gains in the quarter despite the difficulties and restrictions imposed as a result of the pandemic over the period. This growth is due to a consistent performance on a same-store basis (+11.4%1), the attractiveness of the cash & carry model during the economic and health crisis, and the success of the expansion strategy with the opening of 18 stores in the past 12 months;Multivarejo posted a same-store15 increase of +1.1%1. Online sales growth (+137%1) and the good performance of convenience stores and Compre Bem supermarkets offset the strong basis of comparison, the cancellation of Carnival, the severe restrictions imposed by local governments and the end of emergency aid payments during the quarter: The Convenience segment consolidated its success with same-store growth of +37.9%1, reflecting the good momentum of Aliados and Minuto Pão de Açúcar; Extra Supermarkets (+5.0%1) benefited from Compre Bem’s double-digit growth, despite a high basis of comparison and the tightening of travel restrictions;Pão de Açúcar (-1.0%1) was adversely affected by a high basis of comparison, a negative impact caused by the cancellation of Carnival, and the migration of customers from major cities to the countryside;Extra Hypermarkets (-3.9%1) reported a slowdown versus Q4 2020 due to a high basis of comparison, weak economic activity, and tightening restrictions on store opening hours. Net sales at Éxito Group fell by -2.7%16 on a same-store basis over the quarter:Colombia: down -3.9%3 on a same-store basis, impacted by business restrictions imposed on stores located in the Bogotá and Medellín regions, where health measures hit hardest (opening hours, travel restrictions);Uruguay: down -4.3%3 on a same-store basis, impacted by the drop in tourist footfall as a result of border closures and the impact of the health crisis on the population’s purchasing power;Argentina: up +20.7%3 on a same-store basis, primarily driven by inflation (+40%) but satisfactory nonetheless given a tough macroeconomic environment combined with a restrictive lockdown.
