The Company adjusts its revenue by adding back the value of jewelry that was returned by customers, revenue from orders for which fulfillment is under process, and discounts given to customers. These adjustments are made to assess the gross revenue before deducting these items from revenue per IFRS. See Non-IFRS Measures for a full reconciliation.

STATEMENT FROM CEO VINCENT GLADU:
The second quarter of 2025 saw weaker revenues than Q2 last year, in large part because our March sale ran slightly longer into the second quarter last year and we also ran a very successful chain sale in June of last year which we did not run again this year. While we saw our average order value increase by
As I mentioned in last quarter’s press release, now that we’ve successfully delivered on the core elements of our operational transformation, our strategic focus for the remainder of 2025 and 2026 has moved to proving out sustained revenue growth in our core market, the
On the operational transformation front, our efforts have already begun bearing fruit. We’ve been able to reduce distribution costs by ~
On the revenue growth front, beyond the tactics that were discussed in the Q1 press release, we have put together a new Detailed Growth Plan which aligns with and sits atop our 2025 Sales & Marketing Plan. In short, this Detailed Growth Plan outlines actions we are taking to review the current state of our digital marketing practices, identify, and close the key gaps. For example, we have taken steps to better understand, identify and target the various customer segments that purchase from us, across their shopping journey. We are also in the process of updating major components of our website, both in the front and back end, as well as of our marketing automation platform. This Detailed Growth Plan is to be delivered this year but it will take some time to bear fruit and will run into 2026. There are no silver bullets, simply a need for focus and constant attention on all of the key components that make up our digital sales engine. As always, we continue to strive and build Menē into a company that will endure the test of time, and whose focus is on unparalleled craftsmanship and customer service, rather than on market trends and other extrinsic factors.
Speaking of unparalleled craftsmanship, while fall begins to approach, there is still time to celebrate the last weeks of summer with some of the fantastic pieces our team has produced over these warm and sunny months. Inspired by the vast bodies of water that make life possible on Earth, our Sea Fossils collection features pieces for every taste. Whether it’s the demure , the bolder or the absolutely stunning , you (or a loved one) are bound to make an indelible impression on and off the beach.
