UK retailer Tesco announced its results for the year ended late February. On a like-for-like basis, sales (excluding VAT and fuel) rose 4.6% YoY to GBP66.588 billion, up 4.3% at constant exchange rates. Adjusted operating profit increased 0.8% to GBP3.152 billion, in line with market expectations, and rose 0.6% at constant exchange rates. Adjusted EPS was 29 pence, with a dividend of 14.5 pence per share.

During the period, group like-for-like sales grew 3.5% YoY. The company said the Iran conflict may dampen performance, with profit for the current financial year potentially edging down YoY, depending on the ripple effects of the war on consumer spending.

Tesco expects adjusted operating profit for the current financial year to range between GBP3 billion and GBP3.3 billion, with the range widened due to the Iran conflict. Chief Executive Ken Murphy said future performance will depend on the duration of the conflict and its impact on households. Apart from a sharp rise in fuel costs, no significant acceleration in inflation has been observed so far.

Bloomberg cited the UK Food and Drink Federation as forecasting UK food inflation to reach 9% by year-end, higher than the previous estimate of 3.2%. Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Charles Allen said Tescos cautious outlook reflects heightened consumer uncertainty and higher inflation stemming from the Iran conflict. Tesco has made clear it will focus on defending its low-price retail positioning rather than expanding profit margins.

The UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves will meet senior executives of major UK supermarket chains this month to discuss ways to ease cost inflation pressures caused by the war. (da/u)~
