Shares in Domino’s Pizza Enterprises fell 9.6% to A$18.15 on Wednesday after the company reported a statutory net loss of A$134.2 million for fiscal 2026, reversing a narrow profit in the prior year.
The loss was driven by A$316.1 million in significant items, including impairments on its operations in France and Taiwan, accelerated amortisation of technology assets, and costs associated with store closures. Underlying profit rose 4%, though this was overshadowed by the broader financial deterioration.
Full-year revenue declined 11.2% to A$2.05 billion, reflecting continued pressure on sales across international markets. The company’s earnings update followed a period of cautious analyst sentiment, with price targets already trimmed ahead of the results amid concerns over soft like-for-like sales and operational risks.
Analysts indicated the results were likely to prompt further downward revisions to consensus earnings estimates. Australian equities traded largely flat for the session, with the broader market showing little reaction to the company’s announcement.
