英国最大超市集团特易购宣布上调全年利润预测,反映出消费端的相对稳定表现。1上半年销售额增长2%至338亿英镑,基础利润增长6.5%至18亿英镑。1公司将全年基础利润预期上调至31.5亿至33亿英镑,高于此前至少30亿英镑的目标。1
业绩增长主要得益于多个业务板块的良好表现。1其中在线销售同比增长8%,高端自有品牌Finest系列收入增长9%,已建店英国销售增长1.5%。1但批发业务Booker的销售出现下滑,跌幅为2.6%。1
特易购首席执行官肯·墨菲表示:"消费者信心在上半年保持相对韧性,但持续的地缘政治紧张局势继续造成不确定性。"1此外,公司正推进数字化转型,已于4月起与28万名员工测试AI助手,并计划9月向客户推出该工具。1
Britain's largest supermarket group Tesco has raised its full-year profit guidance, citing resilient consumer confidence in the first half of the year.1 Sales rose 2 percent to £33.8 billion, while underlying profit increased 6.5 percent to £1.8 billion.1 The company now expects full-year underlying profit to fall between £3.15 billion and £3.3 billion, up from its previous forecast of at least £3 billion.1
The retailer's online sales grew 8 percent, and revenue from its premium own-brand Finest range climbed 9 percent.1 Like-for-like sales at established UK stores expanded 1.5 percent, though the Booker wholesale business saw sales decline by 2.6 percent.1 CEO Ken Murphy stated that "consumer confidence remained relatively resilient in the first half, ongoing geopolitical tensions continue to create uncertainty."1
Tesco is also advancing its artificial intelligence initiatives, with an AI assistant having been tested by 280,000 employees since April and scheduled for customer rollout in September.1
