Dixons Carphone plc to become Currys plc

Dixons Carphone plc ("the Company") today announces its intention to change its name to "Currys plc".

This follows the announcement that in the United Kingdom & Ireland, Currys PC World, Carphone Warehouse and Team KnowHow will all become a single brand "Currys" by October 2021.

Consumers have a deep affection for Currys, a trusted brand providing vital technology to customers to enrich their lives since 1884. Under one brand, Currys will continue to bring the best of stores and online together, making it easier for customers to choose, afford and enjoy amazing technology, however they want to shop. The press release can be found here: https://www.dixonscarphone.com/news-and-media/press-releases/year/2021/four-brands-become-one-currys.

This important step reflects the progress in the Group's omnichannel transformation. As the market leader in the UK & Ireland, Nordics and Greece, the Group is uniquely positioned to provide products and services to customers at scale in ways others cannot match.

A subsequent announcement will be made when the Company's name change becomes effective with a revised stock ticker. This is expected to take place immediately following the Company's AGM in September 2021. Until such an announcement is made, trading will continue under the existing ticker. No action is required on the part of any equity holders.

 

Next scheduled announcement

Dixons Carphone is scheduled to publish its Full Year results on Wednesday 30 June 2021.
