Greggs: FY23 profit expectations reiterated

Greggs continues to generate premium sales growth through a combination of volume, including market share gains as distribution increases, and price growth. The strength of underlying trading in Q323 is highlighted by management’s confirmation of consensus FY23 PBT expectations despite the addition of new costs for expanding the company’s delivery offer to a second platform and a slight delay in some store openings from the end of the year into FY24.

 

Greggs’ share price is broadly flat since the start of 2023, having reached a peak of more than £29 in May 2023, suggesting a modest de-rating following our upgrades to estimates in March and August. The prospective FY23 P/E multiple of 20.7x is above the post-FY13 average of 17.1x, but more in line with average multiples of c 20x and above in more recent years.

Greggs - Good Q324 on strong comparative

Greggs demonstrated continued strong sales growth in Q324, against a challenging Q323 comparative. The company continues to benefit from its multipronged growth strategy of increasing space, extended trading hours, new digital channels and menu development. Management is confident of meeting its full year expectations, helped by marginally lower cost inflation than previously expected.

With a relatively normal environment for input cost inflation, management is optimistic about the outlook for the year. We have marginally increased our profit estimates, which has also fed through to an increase in our valuation.
