Halfords Group PLC: 20-Week Trading Statement
Halfords Group PLC (HFD)
7 September 2022 Halfords Group plc 20-Week Trading Update: Financial Year 2023
Full year profit guidance unchanged following good performance across the business, and market share gains across Motoring and Cycling products and services.
Halfords Group plc (Halfords or the Group), the UKs leading provider of Motoring and Cycling products and services, today announces its trading update for the 20-week period to 19 August 2022 (the period).
Overview
Graham Stapleton, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
We are working extremely hard to help our customers with the cost-of-living crisis and have dropped prices across nearly 2,000 motoring essentials, ensuring that products remain accessible and affordable for all. Our Motoring Loyalty Club is also proving to be extremely popular and has already attracted over half a million members since its launch in March, with benefits including MOT discounts and a free 10-point car health-check, putting almost £14m of savings directly back into members pockets.
We are also determined to do everything that we can to support our fantastic employees whose tireless work and commitment to going the extra mile for our customers is so critical to our performance. Among other initiatives, we are announcing today that we are offering free MOTs to all of our 10,000+ colleagues.
Over 70% of our sales now come from motoring products and services, and the fact that this area of spend tends to be more needs-based rather than discretionary is leading to a very resilient Group performance, despite the wider macroeconomic uncertainty.
