Memo
PETS AT HOME GROUP PLC (PETS.L). Latest full fiscal year: 2026; data up to 2026-03-26.
Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 1.5 bn GBP in 2026; YoY growth -0.8%; net margin 4.3%; ROE 6.4%.
The estimated value range is 1.40–1.97 GBP per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: high); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 1.68 GBP, the price of 2.60 GBP leaves a potential of -35.2% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of -54.4% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.
Insufficient data for a verdict (score weight coverage: 43.8% of at least 60%).
Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.
What supports the thesis
- Shareholder yield (distributions): 5.0%
What contradicts it
- ROIC: 7.6%
- Current ratio: 0.6x
- P/E (TTM): 19.1x
- The price is above the estimated value range
Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): FCF conversion, Revenue CAGR 3Y, EPS CAGR 3Y, Net debt / EBITDA, EV/EBITDA, FCF yield, Payout ratio (FCF).
