For the 26 weeks ended December 27, the retailer's net profit ($33.6 million) slipped by 45.5% compared to the prior corresponding period, despite a reasonable lift in group sales across the period. The group's overall profit was impacted by $26.9 million in costs associated with the planned exit of its FCO Fishing Camping Outdoors business, and the restructuring of its Ray's Outdoors business. The group's adjusted net profit was $58.1 million. Total sales jumped 5.7% for the half, driven by a strong performance from the group's Auto and Sports retailing divisions. Here's a summary of how each division performed: The Leisure division continues to be impacted by cannibalisation and a slowdown in the mining sector, but the company said the impact of these factors had begun to diminish as the half progressed, while margins had also improved.
