Subject: LFL
Контекст: January LFL sales up 5% y-o-y in core regions
Сопоставимая выручка в основных регионах выросла в январе на 5% по сравнению с соответствующим периодом прошлого года.

Все абсолютно ясно и понятно, но я вдруг поняла, что не могу вспомнить, а как же это LFL расшифровывается по-английски... :( Кажется, like for like? Или нет?

Добрый вечер!
Нашелся такой вариант расшифровки, посмотрите плиз!

In the context of retailers the term like-for-like growth (LFL growth), refers to the stripping out of the effects of expansion and shop closures. Most companies in the FTSE general retailers and food & drug retailers sectors disclose LFL numbers - at least like-for-like sales growth.

Like-for-like growth is usually calculated by measuring the increase or decrease at stores that have been open for at least two years. For example LFL sales growth means the percentage increase in sales from shops that have been open for more than two years.

It is not uncommon for the definition of like-for-like to vary, for example to exclude shops that have been significantly expanded or refitted, or excluding new openings over differnt time scales.

The phrase “same store sales” has a similar meaning but tends to be more loosely defined.

The term LFL is also used in other sectors. With pubs and restaurants the meaning is the same, in other sectors it may refer to stripping out the effects of other distorting factors such as exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions or disposals or whole businesses. In some cases it may have a similar meaning to organic growth.

Terms such as same store sales in essence measure the same thing as LFL, although again the exact definition vary.
