what happened
Accent Group reported that like-for-like retail sales dropped 3.9% over the first 19 weeks of FY27, according to Reuters. Total group owned sales were down 1.9% over the same period.
The retailer noted that conditions in trading have worsened since late August, pointing to softer demand across its store network.
why it matters
For investors, the figures signal soft consumer demand in retail. A decline in like-for-like sales typically weighs most on retail shares, since it shows revenue trends without the effect of new store openings.
