Domino’s Pizza Enterprises flags $259m writedowns as FY26 free cash flow rises to about $164m
Domino's Pizza Enterprises reported FY26 preliminary underlying NPAT in line with guidance and a sharp year-on-year lift in free cash flow, alongside reduced leverage. However, large mostly non-cash balance sheet write-downs tied to underperforming France/Taiwan assets and IT/store investments, plus a 4.1% same-store sales decline, complicate the quality of earnings. Near-term focus shifts to asset review implications and execution of the Australia rollout plan.
