Greggs plc ( (GB:GRG) ) has shared an update.

Greggs plc reported a 6.9% increase in total sales for the first half of 2025, reaching £1,027 million. Despite this growth, like-for-like sales only grew by 2.6%, with high temperatures in June impacting consumer purchasing patterns. The company opened 87 new shops, resulting in a net increase of 31, and aims for 140 to 150 net openings by year-end. However, the Board anticipates that the full-year operating profit could be slightly below 2024 levels due to the strong comparative performance in 2024 and ongoing cost recovery initiatives.
