Colruyt Reiterates outlook, but improvement will be weighed towards 2H
During the AGM, Colruyt reiterated its outlook, aiming to match the EBIT and net result of last year. This translates into an EBIT of € 470m and net profit of € 350m as the French activities will be classified as discontinued operations. Note that the outlook excludes any potential one-offs (France restructuring and Foodbag). However, Colruyt added that it expects an EBIT decline in 1H, which will be offset in 2H. While the group reiterated that the environment remains challenging, Colruyt mentioned that competition further intensified by the Sunday openings and the removal of the mandatory weekly closing day (approved in July). In response, Colruyt will open its Okay stores on Sunday's as from 2026.
