Domino's Pizza Group makes 'encouraging start' to FY26

(Sharecast News) - UK-based master franchise Domino's Pizza Group said on Thursday that Q1 trading had marked "an encouraging start to the year", with year-on-year growth across total system sales, like‑for‑like sales and orders. Ahead of its annual general meeting, Dominos said total system sales rose 5.8%, including like‑for‑like growth of 4.5%, while total orders increased 2.3%, with like‑for‑like orders up 0.9%.

Domino's also highlighted the successful launch of its CHICK 'N' DIP range, noting that early trading was in line with expectations and customer feedback positive.

Despite the broader macroeconomic backdrop, Domino's said its costs were hedged for the current financial year, with some hedging in place through to 2027, and stated that it did not currently anticipate any supply‑related issues. It also continues to expect full‑year earnings to be in line with expectations.

Chief executive Nicola Frampton said: "We have carried the positive momentum seen at the end of 2025 into 2026, with trading performing in line with our expectations.

"As we move through 2026, we remain firmly focused on growing the core business and improving our operational execution for current and future years."

As of 0955 BST, Domino's shares were up 3.65% at 190.10p.
