Next increases profit guidance as warm weather triumphs
Fashion giant Next has upgraded its full-year profit and sales guidance as the effects of the warm weather and annual salary increases pay off.
In a trading update for the seven weeks to June 19, 2023, Next posted a 9.3% increase in full-price sales year on year, which it said was “materially better” than the 5% decline in sales previously forecasted.
The fashion giant also exceeded its full-price sales predictions for the period by £93m.
