Gross Margin Trend

  • 80 bps improvement in gross margin to 34.7%
  • UK margins have improved by 54 bps driven by:
  • Strong sell-through of Gardening and Outdoor
  • Better buying and hence less markdown needed in

non-grocery generally

  • Impact of Jawoll Germany acquisition has improved the
  • verall group margin by 26 bps
  • Our strategy going forward is to re-invest in price to

prioritise growth over further gross margin expansion. 33.9% 34.0% 34.7% 2014 H1 2014 A 2015 H1
