Munich, May 06, 2019 // Westwing Group AG ("Westwing") adjusts its guidance for 2019 based on current trading.  
 
As disclosed in the last earnings update, Westwing expects revenue growth to come mostly in the second half of 2019. Q1 2019 revenue growth was -1%, which was still in line with the expected range given a strong baseline growth of 30% in Q1 2018. However, current Gross Merchandize Volume (GMV) trading for March and April 2019 has been below expectations. Accordingly, Westwing has reassessed the outlook for the year.
 
For 2019, Westwing now expects revenue growth of 6% to 12% (previously: in line with 2018 levels, i.e. within a range of 2 to 3 percentage points of 16%). Moreover, Westwing expects Adjusted EBITDA to come in slightly lower at around 0% (within a range of -1% to +1%) due to lower expected revenue growth (previously: in line with 2018 levels, i.e. within a range of 1 percentage point of +1%).
