What the Analysts think about Dfs Furniture
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Dfs Furniture stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
DFS reported that first-half underlying profit before tax nearly doubled to £17.0 million, helped by a 10% increase in order intake. Early second-half orders rose 11%, supporting full-year PBT guidance of £25–29 million.
Full-year gross sales rose 5.8% to June, ahead of forecasts, marking the group's first annual revenue growth in two years. Customer orders across DFS and Sofology increased by 8.7% and 16.2% respectively, contributing to an expected £20 million profit improvement.
DFS now expects FY25 profit before tax at the upper end of its £25–29 million guidance range, above analyst consensus of £22.7 million, reflecting disciplined cost control and strengthening confidence in achieving its £1.4 billion medium-term revenue target.
Management cautioned that the more than 11% rise in order intake is unlikely to be sustained, pointing to possible challenges in maintaining sales momentum in the second half.
Operating profit margins, while improved to about 3%, are still well below the medium-term goal of 8%, indicating significant margin expansion is required in a tough cost environment.
DFS faces rising cost pressures from higher employer social security contributions and an increased national living wage, both of which could put additional pressure on profit margins despite strong trading.
