Three months to 30 November 2014 highlights
-- Retail sales +8% (UK +24%, International -2%) -- International retail sales 57% of total (63% last year) -- Retail gross margin down c.170 bps on prior year -- Mechanised pick solution at Barnsley now live -- Zonal live in UK, Australia and France -- Business interruption claim completed; further reimbursements received of GBP6.3m -- Strong balance sheet and cash position
Nick Robertson, CEO, commented:
"Total retail sales for the quarter grew by 8% (12% on a constant currency basis). September and October were challenging as we completed the automation programme in Barnsley in time for peak. Our sales have since gathered momentum and we had our biggest ever trading week over cyber weekend in November.
Our strong UK performance continued at +24%, however international retail sales declined by 2% (growth of 4% at constant currency). International trading conditions remain challenging.
We have commenced investment into our international pricing and have started to roll out our zonal pricing capability, which combined will help us to address our international performance. We continue to focus on our major investment programmes, upgrading our IT platform and investing in our logistics capability.
During the quarter, we received GBP6.3 million of insurance proceeds related to the fire at Barnsley in June, which we are deploying to accelerate our investment in international pricing. After taking this into account, we expect full year profits to be in line with expectations".
