While Group revenue in the fourth quarter of 2019 amounted to EUR 511.8 million (+39.1% y-o-y in constant currency, Q4 2018: EUR 361.7 million), the Group's adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 38.6 million (Q4 2018: EUR (2.9) million), which corresponds to a margin of 7.5%, and is thereby positive for the third quarter in a row. The outstanding performance was driven by both operating segments, the US and International. Especially the US segment showed very strong growth dynamics in Q4 2019 with a constant currency revenue growth of 45.5%. "2019 has been our most successful year to date. We posted our first full year of adjusted EBITDA profits as a Group. While the US segment is adjusted EBITDA profitable for the first full year, after only six years of operations and despite ramping up two entirely new brands last year, our International segment has already delivered an adjusted EBITDA margin of above 10%. Most importantly we provided customers around the world with more than 280 million meals and had a positive impact on their lives and the environment each time", says Dominik Richter, CEO and co-founder of HelloFresh.
Key strategic initiatives as growth drivers Over the past years, HelloFresh has heavily invested in its product offering, pricing, as well as physical and digital infrastructure. By doing so, the company successfully positioned meal kits as a mass market product. As a result, the company gained market share across both segments, fundamentally changing nearly 3 million customer's lives to the better. In addition, HelloFresh doubled down on its sustainability efforts, allowing the company to further strengthen its positive impact on the environment, especially in terms of reducing food waste and carbon emissions. Outlook for FY 2020: HelloFresh continues its growth momentum
