AO’s FY25 results illustrate the power of its excellent customer service, rated 4.9/5 on Trustpilot.
12% growth in B2C Retail revenues and a focus on improved unit economics has led to LFL Adj. PBT rising 32% to £45m - and margin +80bps to 4.1%.
As already announced, FY26E will bring significant cost headwinds and so Adj. PBT guidance is £40m-£50m (we are unchanged at £45m). However, the medium-term outlook for AO is encouraging given the revenue momentum and opportunity for further margin expansion.
Trading on under 15x Cal 2026 PER and a 7.5% Cal 2026 FCF yield we believe AO is significantly underrated and we reiterate our 150p fair value, equivalent to a cal 2026 FCF yield of 5%.
