Asda might help break Ocado’s supermarket stalemate

Tie-up suggests the online grocery delivery group is nearing its goal after it struggled to win new partners

Asda is majority-owned by the private equity firm TDR Capital (67.5%), with British billionaire businessman Mohsin Issa holding a minority stake (22.5%) and the US retail giant Walmart retaining a 10% share

Corporate news was scarce but Ocado surged after agreeing to enter a partnership with Asda to develop the latter's online business across the UK with the Ocado Smart Platform.

Russ Mould, investment director at AJ Bell, said the deal was "some much-needed good news" for Ocado.

"For Asda, this deal may give it some heft to take on Tesco and Sainsbury's at a time when its position in the UK groceries market is looking fragile, while for Ocado it is a ray of light after a difficult period for the business," he said.

"It still feels a world away from the idea Ocado could become a global leader, licensing its platform to help supermarkets around the world set up their own web-based solutions, a story which really captured the imagination during the pandemic. Particularly given this deal follows a major setback with its big US partner Kroger last year.

"Despite a healthy bump today, the shares still sit more than 90% below the all-time highs achieved in 2020 when excitement around the stock and the potential for global growth hit fever pitch.

"Management at first blamed Covid restrictions for preventing it from meeting companies to agree contracts at the pace the market was hoping for. In the intervening period, the company has been plagued by operational issues, a patent dispute and surging costs.

"Long-standing shareholders will hope this is the first step in a less grandiose but still meaningful growth story."

(Sharecast News) - Berenberg hiked its price target on Marks & Spencer on Thursday to 480p from 415p after the company's full-year results.

The bank, which maintained a 'buy' rating, said it was increasing its FY 2027 adjusted pre-tax profit estimate by 2% to around £938m.

"The company seems confident of a full profit recovery in FY 2027E (to March 2027) following the disruption caused by the April 2025 cyberattack," it said. "We expect the food division to lead the way, noting its ongoing growth.

"At the heart of the explanation for M&S's food market share gains - despite cyber-disruption - is management's unwavering focus on improving customer appeal through a combination of price, quality, style, innovation and customer experience in stores and online."

Berenberg said that provided this customer-pleasing approach continues, it expects sustainable recovery and growth in both the food and fashion divisions.

"The company's plan requires heavier investment into stores, systems and logistics than experienced under previous management teams, but we think the top-line growth strategy could ultimately reward investors," it said
