Restatement of financial information: Pursuant to the International Accounting Standard 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies ("IAS 29"), the financial statements of entities whose functional currency is that of a hyperinflationary economy must be adjusted for the effects of changes in a general price index. Turkish companies reporting under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), including the Company, have been required to apply IAS 29 to their financial statements for periods ended on and after June 30, 2022.
The Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, including figures corresponding to the same periods of the prior year, reflect a restatement pursuant to IAS 29. Under IAS 29, the Company's financial statements are presented in terms of the measuring unit current as of September 30, 2025. All the amounts included in the financial statements which are not stated in terms of the measuring unit current as of the date of the reporting period, are restated applying the general price index. Adjustment for inflation has been calculated considering the price indices published by the Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat). Such indices used to restate the financial statements as at September 30, 2025 are as follows:
Date
Index
Conversion Factor
30 September 2025
3,367.2

Figures unadjusted for inflation in accordance with IAS 29, denoted as "IAS 29-unadjusted", "unadjusted for IAS 29", "unadjusted", "unadjusted for inflation", or "without adjusting for inflation", are also included under the "Highlights" sections as relevant. Figures unadjusted for IAS 29 constitute non-IFRS financial measures. We believe that their inclusion facilitates the understanding of the restated financial statements in accordance with IAS 29. Please see the "Presentation of Financial and Other Information" section of this press release for a definition of such non-IFRS measures, a discussion of the limitations on their use, and reconciliations of the non-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures.

Commenting on the results, Nilhan Onal Gökçetekin, CEO of Hepsiburada said:
"During the third quarter, we once again delivered improving order growth. Number of orders grew 17.6% year-over-year, double the rate of growth seen in the second quarter, while GMV increased 8.9%. Fast revenue growth continued, with revenues up 22.1%. Gross contribution margin increased 55 basis points (bps) in the third quarter and 100 bps for the first nine months of 2025, compared to the same periods last year.
"We also delivered healthy cash generation, with free cash flow increasing year-over-year from 2,104.7 TRY million to 2,584.3 TRY million in the third quarter and from TRY 2,789.4 million to TRY 5,183.1 million for the first nine months of 2025, due to our focus on disciplined cash management and business efficiencies.
"The decrease in EBITDA from TRY 676.8 million in Q3 2024 to TRY 173.8 million in Q3 2025 and the increase in Net Loss from TRY 409.7 million in Q3 2024 to 1,324.8 million in Q3 2025 was primarily due to our investments in new growth projects including efforts to speed up and reduce the cost of delivery for merchants, advertising initiatives and investments in installment payments.
"Our focus on delivery operations and payment solutions have enabled faster delivery times and supported growth in lower-priced products, while marketing initiatives have driven higher traffic and increased product views. Along with improvements in the user experience, these efforts have contributed to a rise in conversion rates.
"As we enter the final and most important quarter of the year, our focus remains on improving growth momentum and disciplined execution.
"We appreciate the continued support of our shareholders, the trust placed in us by our customers and partners, and the dedication demonstrated by our entire team."

1: In 1P direct sales model, we act as a principal and initially recognize revenue from the sales of goods on a gross basis at the time of delivery of the goods to our customers.2: In the 3P marketplace model, revenues are recorded on a net basis, mainly consisting of marketplace commission, transaction fees and other contractual charges to the merchants.
Our revenue increased by 22.1% to TRY 19,919.8 million in Q3 2025 compared to TRY 16,317.3 million in Q3 2024. This was due to a 24.8% increase in our (1P) revenue (comprising 67.1% of total revenue), an 8.4% increase in our (3P) revenue (comprising 12.1% of total revenue), a 24.4% increase in delivery service revenue (comprising 14.9% of total revenue) and an 18.4% increase in other revenue (comprising 5.9% of total revenue) compared to Q3 2024.
The 21.9% increase in 1P and 3P revenue compared to Q3 2024 was mainly due to progress on our growth strategy including targeted marketing initiatives, initiatives for faster delivery and other customer & merchant focused actions.
The 24.4% increase in delivery service revenue compared to Q3 2024 was mainly due to an increase in delivery service revenue from Hepsijet's off-platform customers.
The rise in other revenue was mainly attributable to growth in our Advertisement revenues.
