Greggs stock trades 11.93 percent below its 52-week high

Greggs stock (GBp 1,802, LSE) was trading on September 24, 2026 at 2:59 p.m. UTC, 11.93 percent below its 52-week high of GBp 2,046. The shares were up 0.45 percent against the previous close of GBp 1,794, keeping the immediate move modest while the next operating update approaches.

H1 sales rose 7.2 percent

Greggs delivered total sales of GBP 1.1015 billion in the 26 weeks to June 27, 2026, an increase of 7.2 percent from GBP 1.0277 billion a year earlier. IG reported that like-for-like sales in company-managed shops increased 2.1 percent during the period.

The comparison becomes more informative at the profit level. Operating profit rose 22.9 percent to GBP 86.5 million, while the latest quarter data show net income of GBP 56.2 million and basic earnings per share of GBP 0.55 for Q2/2026.

September 30 sets the next checkpoint

Greggs' investor calendar lists a Q3 trading update for September 30, 2026, followed by a Q4 trading update on January 14, 2027. The schedule gives investors a defined checkpoint for testing whether the 2.1 percent company-managed like-for-like sales rate has held into the second half, as Greggs states.

The market value also puts the operating figures into context. Greggs had a market capitalization of GBP 1,837,229,352 on September 24, 2026, while the share price remained 11.93 percent below the 52-week high. That gap leaves the September trading update important for judging whether sales growth is broadening beyond the first-half base.
