(Alliance News) - Domino's Pizza Group PLC on Tuesday backed annual guidance after third quarter sales increased despite a drop in orders.
The Milton Keynes, England-based master franchise holder in the UK and Ireland for pizza delivery firm Domino's Pizza Inc said system sales rose 2.1% to GBP382.7 million in the third quarter from GBP374.8 million the year prior, or by 1.0% on a like-for-like basis, excluding VAT and splits.
Total orders were down 1.5% in the quarter from a year ago, reflecting a 3.4% drop in Delivery impacted by weaker consumer sentiment. Collections rose 1.7% reflecting some continued benefit of national collection campaign.
For 2025, Domino's Pizza continues to expect underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation in the range of GBP130 million to GBP140 million, down from GBP143.9 million in the 52 weeks to December 29, 2024.
New store openings expectations are unchanged at mid-twenties with 18 in the financial year so far.
Chief Executive Officer Andrew Rennie said: "We have delivered a solid Q3 performance with positive sales and operational momentum despite the continued challenging consumer backdrop. In particular I am really pleased with the initial results from the introduction of our exciting Chick'N'Dip brand."
In September, the company announced the launch of the new chicken offer, Chick'N'Dip, in 187 stores across the north west of England and Northern Ireland.
Shares in Domino's Pizza were down 1.5% at 190.50 pence each in London on Tuesday.
The company said it will be hosting an investor day on December 9 which will include an update on growth opportunities for the core Domino's UK and Ireland business.
