Financial summary

· Group revenue1 growth of 9.9% to £303.4m

o Retail revenue up 8.7% to £266.4m, including omnichannel2 revenue up 36.0% to £26.0m

o Vet Group revenue1 up 18.8% to £37.0m. First Opinion customer sales growth across all vet practices was 11.4%, with mature practices growing ahead of the market

· Group like-for-like3 revenue growth of 8.0%

o Retail like-for-like revenue growth of 8.2%

o Vet Group like-for-like revenue growth4 of 6.2%, with like-for-like Joint Venture fee income up 1.1% to £16.2m, reflecting the planned impact of our fee remediation measures

· We now expect underlying profit for the year, before IFRS16 impacts5, to be slightly above current market expectations6, reflecting:

o Good transaction and cash growth in Retail, particularly in food and omnichannel where strong growth has more than offset adverse margin mix

o Vet Group underlying performance in line with our plans, with the financial impact of buying out a number of Joint Venture vet practices comfortably within expectations

· All other FY20 financial guidance components7 are maintained

Strategic highlights

We are introducing more customers to our complete pet care offer, allowing us to take a greater share of their overall spend:

o Number of VIPs who purchase products and a service has grown 23% y/y, driven by increased use of both the Groom Room and our First Opinion vets

o Number of subscription customers8 across the Group is now over 765,000

· In Retail, our investment in convenient, competitive and innovative shopping has brought success across categories, in particular with acquiring new customers and their food shop

· Vet Group recalibration on track, with the buy out and closure of practices largely complete

· Formed a strategic partnership through an investment in Tailster.com, a leading online marketplace in the UK for pet walking, sitting and boarding services, which will enhance our pet care services to customers

Peter Pritchard, Group Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"The momentum with which we exited FY19 has continued into the first quarter of FY20. We have seen a strong sales performance across the business, particularly in Retail where like-for-like sales were 8.2% - an impressive 14% on a two year basis. We are also making good progress in our Vet Group. Our plans to buy out a number of Joint Venture vet practices have been carefully executed, whilst performance in the ongoing estate remains strong. We have the right foundations in place to accelerate the maturity of our vet practices in a sustainable way, delivering cashflow benefits to both Joint Venture Partners and Pets at Home.

At this early stage in the year, and with ongoing uncertainty across the wider retail sector, we remain cautiously optimistic and focused on delivering our pet care strategy."

Just to say very well done to those who kept the faith here
or took advantage of last year's share price dive. I looked at this briefly but
was not astute enough to have bought. Enjoy your gains folks.

Maybe, although it seems to be on a streak at the moment..I imagine I'll regret the decision. And stop calling me Shirley.

Out of these today. Has been a cracking investment and collected some nice divis along the way, but decided to take all profits off the table. Cue the private equity bid at a 30% premium!

Food for thought, thanks guys. Itv is already in the portfolio but way to early a purchase so way, way underwater - even with the dividend income.Rdsb was a core holding just as they bought British gas and did very well on their rerating. Rdsb now down to 10% of the pot, but yes, I don't lose sight that it's steady and boring which has a lot of appeal.

Shell for safe and sound sleep well at night kind of share. IAG because it's probably the cheapest share in the 100 (P/E 4-5). Several other long term boring holds. Disappointing that a lot of the 100 has been battered to hell for one reason or/and another..

Very well done you. I agree re. The underlying business although I bought higher than you and sold alot sooner too - though still a decent return.Do you mind me asking where you are looking to reinvest - if at all? I went into vod (too soon, still underwater) fres (up and down but doing OK), dssmith (vgood, and should have done more) and Saga which, thus far, has done me very well too.

Well I dumped my last tranche of pets today at 207. In my head, rightly or wrongly, its a 180-200 share. So it could well go higher though I believe that would be sentiment rather than real value.
Still my composite was 116 purchase price so a good return.
Taught me a lot - this was the most shorted share on the ftse when i bought. Traders don't understand underlying business' and if you can be rational there is value to be had.

Closing in on a 2 year high. Can it add another 10p before the inevitable profit taking post results..

Funny how these analysts don't call the bottom very often but join the crowd when the share price is doing well ! They won't call the top either - EZJ reached the dizzying heights of 1800p not so long ago, nothing was said by analysts about them being toppy and down they came to 900p.

Co.'s price reset, store-opening slowdown and vet-practices buyout "have been delivering slightly ahead of expectations," analyst Xavier Le Mene writes in a note BofAML sees FY20 being "another transition year"PT set at 230p, which is higher than the targets of analysts tracked by Bloomberg.
