Operational overview

  • Strong retention of existing customers and increased market share in an environment where new customer acquisition remains challenging:

    - 1,054,000 total orders received (H1 2024: 1,085,000)
    - 125,000 new customers acquired (H1 2024: 145,000)
    - Encouraging existing customer retention profile
    - Average order values remained strong (flat with H1 2024)

  • Operating profit margin improved to 10.7% (H1 2024: 10.5%) reflecting modest price adjustments entering the year against minimal supplier cost increases and the flexibility of the marketing mix

  • Free cash flow of $74.6m generated in the period (H1 2024: $59.1m)

  • Group well financed with cash and bank deposits of $102.3m at 28 June 2025, after the $119.9m of 2024 final and special dividends paid in the first half

  • Interim dividend of 80.0c per share declared (2024: 80.0c)

Paul Moody, Chairman said:

“Despite some market challenges and an anticipated level of rising product cost due to tariffs in the second half, the Board expects that full year Group revenue and profit before tax will remain within the current range of analysts’ forecasts.

“The Board is confident in the Group's ability to navigate current market conditions, delivering the strongest possible near-term financial results while positioning the business to take advantage of opportunities that will present themselves as conditions improve.”
