Tesco PLC (LSE:TSCO) held its full-year guidance steady despite what it called an "intensely competitive" grocery market, as it turned in a first-quarter update that showed stronger like-for-like sales growth than the past year. LFL sales were up 4.6% to £16.4 billion for the 13 weeks to 24 May 2025, led by 5.5% growth in Ireland and 5.1% growth for the rest of the UK.
Tesco PLC (LSE:TSCO) is expected to report a 4.6% increase in UK like-for-like sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 on Thursday (June 11), according to a research note from Citi. This projection is above the 3.6% consensus estimate from Visible Alpha and reflects strong consumer demand over March, April, and May, as indicated by data from Kantar.
Tesco PLC (LSE:TSCO) will deliver a first-quarter trading update on Thursday 12 June, with investors watching closely for signs of how the UK's largest supermarket is navigating an increasingly competitive grocery market. In April, Ken Murphy, chief executive of the FTSE 100-listed grocer, warned that profits will fall this year in as he issued guidance that was seen as cautious but still aggressive.
