Edison issues outlook on Greggs (GRG): Showing us how it’s done

The second full year of Greggs’ five-year growth plan to double revenue by FY26 should be marked down as very successful, especially so given the challenging external environment. Unlike many consumer-facing companies, high selling price inflation was accompanied by volume growth, leading to good market share gains. The consumer is responding well to new initiatives to grow revenue in new dayparts and digital channels. Profitability was well-managed with better recovery of input cost inflation than FY22. We look for more of the same in FY24, which will be a significant year from a capital investment perspective, and beyond.

The updated DCF-based valuation, which incorporates the roll forward and updating of our estimates and WACC (reduced from 10% to 9% to incorporate lower bond yields and equity risk premium), has increased to £30.20 (£29.70 previously). Prospective EV/sales and P/E multiples for FY24 of 1.4x and 21.9x, respectively, are at the mid/upper end of its more recent average multiples.

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.

Greggs - Confident about FY24 outlook

Greggs’ H124 results demonstrate the ongoing benefits of its multiple levers to drive revenue growth as well as a pleasant surprise on operating margin. 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.
