Gear4music (Holdings) plc (LSE:G4M) reported a 7.3% year-on-year increase in sales for the five months ended 31 August 2026, with trading in line with the board’s expectations.
The musical instruments and equipment retailer provided the figures in a trading update issued alongside its annual general meeting.
Gear4music said sales growth slowed during July and August, which it attributed to unusually prolonged hot weather and more demanding comparisons with the same period a year earlier.
