Primark Considered for Spin-Off

Associated British Foods (AB Foods), the owner of Primark, is considering spinning off the retail chain from its food business.

AB Foods announced a review of the group's structure alongside its full-year financial results, which reported an adjusted pre-tax profit of £1.7bn for the year to September 13, a 13% decline compared to the prior year.

Sales across Primark grew by 1% year-on-year to £9.5bn, with stronger trading in the second half balancing out a weaker first half.

AB told investors that no decision had been made but its review may result in the board deciding to separate Primark from the food business.
