FY27 Store Additions
Management indicated FY27 store additions should be at least similar to FY26 levels (~600 stores), pending formal AOP completion.
Gross Margin Stability
Gross margins expected to remain at current levels in Q4, supported by private label mix and offset by franchisee sales at lower margins.
Path to 6% Pharmacy Operating Margins
Management expressed confidence in reaching 6% pharmacy operating margins over time, driven by private label mix expansion (especially non-pharma FMCG at 25-30% gross margins) and operating leverage.
