Famous Brands expects EPS of 157-205 cents for the six months ended August 31, 2026, down 13%-33%.
Headline EPS is forecast at 205-252 cents, ranging from a 13% decline to 7% growth versus 236 cents a year earlier.
A R 40.9 million goodwill impairment on Botswana's Retail Group drove the expected EPS decline; excluding it, EPS would be 199-247 cents.
The group plans to sell a 21% interest in Retail Group, reducing its holding from 51% to 30% to limit operating-loss exposure.
Completion is expected in fiscal 2027, subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions; master licence fees will continue.
