What the Analysts think about MKS
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Marks & Spencer Group stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
M&S has announced a £340 million investment in a fully automated distribution centre in Daventry, aimed at doubling its food business and improving long-term operational efficiency as it recovers from digital setbacks (Reuters).
The food division’s performance recovered, showing 6.7% year-on-year sales growth over the 12 weeks to August 9 and a 3.7% share of the UK grocery market, which demonstrates strong demand for its own-brand products (Reuters).
Online clothing orders resumed on June 10 after a 46-day suspension due to a cyber incident, and the share price rose 3% when digital services were restored, indicating investor confidence in the company’s recovery efforts (Reuters).
A sophisticated cyberattack in April is expected to reduce M&S’s operating profit by about £300 million in 2025/26. Continuing system disruptions and a £1 billion loss in market capitalization highlight significant risks in digital infrastructure execution (Reuters).
Food sales growth slowed to 9.1% year-on-year for the 12 weeks ending June 14, down from 10.8% the previous month and 14.7% earlier, indicating that supply chain disruptions after the cyberattack still affect key revenue streams (Reuters).
M&S had to suspend online clothing and home orders on April 25—which make up about one-third of that segment’s sales—causing a 5% share price drop and revealing vulnerability to operational disruptions and limited customer access (Reuters).
