Nick Beighton, CEO, commented:
"I am pleased to report strong retail sales growth of 30% (+26% on constant currency basis) over the four months to 30 June 2016, underpinned by our continued price and proposition investments. UK growth remains strong at +28% and we have seen further acceleration across the US, EU and ROW segments; overall International retail sales increased by 31% (25% on constant currency basis).
As anticipated, our retail gross margin for the period is down c.180bps, approximately 40% of which (c.70bps) is due to moving our main sale forward one week into this financial period, with the balance as a result of continued price investment.
We now anticipate full year sales growth at the upper end of the 20-25% range. Our retail gross margin guidance of up to 50bps of investment remains unchanged and we remain confident in delivering current market PBT expectations for the year.
Given the increased momentum within the business combined with our strong financial position, we will maintain our successful programme of reinvestment to take advantage of the opportunities currently available to us.
We will release our results for the year to 31 August 2016 on 18 October."
