Woolworths reported FY23 sales up 6% and EBIT up 16% and the result  was characterised by a return to more normal trading patterns. EBIT was up 3% excluding the impact of an unwind of COVID-19 costs in the prior year. The Woolworths Food division had a strong improvement in margins, which bodes well for FY24e and its investments in adjacencies is supporting higher margins than major peer Coles. We expect elevated capex to continue over the next two years given supply chain investments, which should deliver a return.
