Financials

The H124 update showed that trading deteriorated further in Q224, following the weakness that began in Q124. Management attributes the decline to the soft external environment as noted by other companies. For the individual businesses, the trends remain consistent with previous updates: strong revenue growth for Online Pure Play offset by weakness in Topps Tiles stores, and Parkside continues to see a significant improvement in its financial performance. We reduced our FY24 and FY25 PBT forecasts, the former by 40%, with the broad assumption that H224 revenue declines by c 4% helped by a more supportive macro environment (eg real wage growth and lower interest rates), as well as an easier comparative.
