Footasylum chief executive officer David Pujolar is touting a “standout performance” and “record results” for fiscal 2025.
The UK-based footwear and sportswear retailer reported that its total revenue for the year increased 9.4 percent to 349.5 million pounds, up from 319.5 million pounds in fiscal 2024. Net profit after text was up 625 percent to 19.9 million pounds in fiscal 2025, up from 2.8 million pounds last year.
The company also saw same store sales increase 3 percent to 172.6 million pounds, and online sales increased 6 percent to 143.1 million pounds. Exclusive brand sales were also up 101 percent to 33.7 million pounds, which now accounting for 10 percent of company’s revenue.
“I’m pleased to report that our strong trading has continued into the current financial year, ahead of both the prior year and budget,” Pujolar said. “These results reflect progress across all areas of the business, from store expansion and the growth of our exclusive brands, through to the continued success of our omnichannel model and our focus on first-class customer service.”
The CEO noted that the company’s relationships with brands like Nike, Adidas and New Balance continued to grow in 2025 and “remain central” to its assortment. New product development is expected to drive further progress in the year ahead, he added.
“While the wider macroeconomic environment remains challenging, demand for our unique offer remains strong,” Pujolar said. “The creativity and energy of our people, without whom none of this would be possible, continues to set us apart.”
Nick Scott, Footasylum’s chief financial officer, added that the company’s store opening and upsizing program, based on the blueprint of its Oxford Street flagship in London, continues to drive momentum. “With growing demand for our on-trend products, six new stores are planned for the remainder of 2025, with further expansion already planned for 2026,” Scott said.
Looking ahead, the company noted that its current total sales for the first 21 weeks of the current financial year are up 10.5 percent year-on-year and are “tracking slightly ahead of plan.” Gross margin is also ahead of both last year and plan, while retail sales are up 6 percent so far this quarter, driven by the company’s exclusive brands.
Pujolar added: “With a clear plan in place, we are well positioned for the next phase of our journey, including international expansion in the medium term.”
