Wesfarmers 2026 AGM sales update

At the start of a downturn

29 October 2026

Wesfarmers’ AGM update revealed a slowdown in sales in Bunnings and more cautious commentary on the retail backdrop. In the scheme of things, the slowdown should be mild and therefore the debate is more about the appropriate PE ratio than it is about earnings risks. For Bunnings, we expect sales growth to slow more so in 2H27e and 1H28e as the lagged effects of lower housing churn and lower house prices show through. Kmart has soft sales growth but currency gains to offset the pressure on earnings from cost growth and DC transition.
