Marks and Spencer stock trades 11.31 percent below yearly high

Marks and Spencer (ISIN GB0031274896) stood at GBp 371 on the London Stock Exchange on September 24, 2026 at 4:35 p.m. London time, 11.31 percent below its 52-week high of GBp 418.32. As The Edge Malaysia reported, Worldpanel data covered the retailer's grocery sales for the 12 weeks to September 6, 2026, with half-year results due in early November.

Sales provide the main anchor

Marks and Spencer lists GBP 14.2 billion in group sales for fiscal 2025/26, excluding Ocado Retail, according to its Marks and Spencer investor information. The same financial update shows adjusted profit before tax of GBP 671.4 million, giving investors a second operating measure alongside the sales figure.

Free cash flow from operations reached GBP 131.3 million in fiscal 2025/26, while net funds excluding leases stood at GBP 338.2 million. The combination gives the stock a more detailed financial frame than the share price alone, particularly as the next half-year reporting date approaches.

Grocery recovery meets valuation

The Edge Malaysia linked the grocery trend to a recovery from the cyberattack that disrupted online sales in April 2025. The relevant Worldpanel period ended September 6, 2026, so the data offer a recent operating checkpoint before the November results.

Marks and Spencer's share price was up 0.87 percent on September 24, 2026, compared with the previous close of GBp 367.80. The daily gain was modest, but the stock remained 11.31 percent below the yearly peak, placing the latest quote closer to the middle of its GBp 301.10 to GBp 418.32 52-week range.
