AliExpress Russia, an e-commerce joint venture launched in 2019 by Alibaba and its Russian partners, is eyeing an initial public offering (IPO) in pursuit of a new funding source to support its business as the online retailer’s supply chains have been affected by coronavirus-induced restrictions, according to Reuters. “If nothing changes, the [company] results will be decent and the market will be ready for this kind of placement. Once the board of directors supports such a strategic management vision, then…it could be seen by as early as next year but no [final] decision has yet been made,” she said. According to the results of the last financial year (ended on March 31, 2021), the turnover of AliExpress Russia reached $3.1 billion (229 billion rubles). The turnover of goods from Russia during this period amounted to about $755 million (55 billion rubles) and grew by 151% year-on-year. Without providing a growth comparison, AliExpress Russia said that its gross merchandise volume (GMV) for the 2020-2021 financial year totaled 230 billion roubles ($3 billion), a little more than three quarters of which came from its cross-border transactions, which CEO Dmitry Sergeev said grew in line with Russia’s total e-commerce market. Reuters said that Russia’s total e-commerce sales enjoyed a year-on-year increase of about 40% in 2020, citing data from market research firm Euromonitor. AliExpress Russia’s net losses widened in the first half of 2021 to almost a billion roubles (around $13 million) against 533 million roubles ($7.2 million) for the same period in 2020.
