"In the first six months of 2014, the Company's revenue continued growing at a high pace, increasing by 26.8% compared to the same period of last year.                       

Growth of revenue of mature stores contributed significantly to this result, which is seen in the 18.1% increase of Like-for-Like sales. Number of customers purchases remained the key growth driver of Like-for-Like sales, increasing by 13.1% and the average check for Like-for-Like stores grew by 4.5%. 

We continued intensive development, opening 9 new Detsky Mir stores under a new concept and 5 ELC stores. We have also begun converting the existing stores into the new concept, shutting down 7 big stores for remodeling for 2 to 3 months. 

Our cost-cutting efforts continued to yield results: SG&A as a percentage of revenue declined from 36.6% to 31.0% in the first half of the year. As a result, the Company's OIBDA at for the period totalled RUB 699m, as opposed to an OIBDA loss in first half of 2013. 

We plan even more new openings in the second half of the year. A milestone event will be the opening of our flagship store in the center of Moscow, at Vozdvizhenka 10, which will become Russia's biggest children's goods store. We plan to open at least 30 new stores before the yearend, including at least 25 Detsky Mir's and 5 ELC stores. We will continue working to implement a single SAP platform, expand warehouse logistics and make other operational improvements aimed at increasing the efficiency of Detsky Mir's business."
