Tesco: Buy rating untouched after earnings recalibration
Post-FY, we have cut our sales, EBIT and retail FCF estimates by 1%, 5% and 8% respectively, to reflect price investments made YTD in the UK. However, we do not expect a full-blown price war with the need to further reinvest, and are pricing in the top-end of FY EBIT guidance. Consensus has recalib

Deliveroo: controlled reinvestments in 2025, untouched business model
Post-FY 2024, we see 2025 as a year of reinvestment set to fuel longer-term growth and implying a smaller margin expansion than usual. Whether these investments are purely proactive or in response to the ongoing acquisition of JET by Prosus, we expect a higher pace of growth going forward and have

Tesco: can Asda really revive the price war in the UK?
As Asda's new leader sends the group to the front line with a very aggressive and risky price repositioning plan, we struggle to identify a scenario whereby Asda would have enough ammunition to hold out. The feared scenario of a revived price war in the UK is not (yet) here, but we are adopting a s

Tesco: sacrificing a short-term guidance upgrade for longer-term volum...
The Christmas period was strong with Tesco proactively investing further and building volume momentum. The group has traded in a potential guidance upgrade for longer-term volume gains, which makes sense in view of its competitors' limited room for manoeuvre. Buy reiterated with a 403p PT and persi

With the UK budget for 2025 set to onboard more staff costs for all food retailers o/w GBP460m estimated for Tesco, we remain confident in the group's ability to mitigate the impact with cost-savings while the UK's two laggards, Asda and Morrisons, look set to be squeezed for longer. As the UK groc

UK Retail: relief on relatively unharmful 2025 budget
The tax increases outlined in the UK's 2025 budget have proved to be skewed towards corporates and wealthy households with the prospect of manageable extra-staff costs for Tesco (Buy) and Deliveroo (Neutral) and better purchasing power prospects, fuelling a continued recovery in grocery volume &

Tesco: P10 UK market share on the same trend as recent months
Following the P10 Kantar market share release, we continue to favour Tesco for its exposure to a still-healthy UK grocery market (no deflation, volume/mix no longer negative, no price war in sight until late 2025) and its robust commercial execution currently unlocking strong market share momentum

Tesco: H1 EBIT beat and a welcome FY EBIT guidance upgrade
Post Tesco's strong set of H1 figures (particularly EBIT while sales were just in line), we view the FY retail EBIT guidance upgrade to "around GBP2.9bn" as sufficient enough to please investors and prompt a few estimates upgrades among sell-side analysts. Tesco's exposure to the healthy UK market
