Naked Wines PLC (LSE:WINE) has issued a post-close trading update ahead of its upcoming half-year results, reporting solid progress across several key metrics. Improvements in Adjusted EBITDA, margin performance, and cash generation place the company on a path consistent with its FY26 targets. Management also completed a £2 million share buyback programme, which is expected to enhance per-share value for investors. Naked Wines will present a detailed overview of its performance to current and prospective shareholders on 9 December 2025.
Despite these operational improvements, the company continues to face financial headwinds, including weakening revenue trends and pressure on profitability. While the most recent earnings call highlighted advances in cost control and strategic repositioning, market indicators—both technical and valuation-based—still reflect caution from investors. Progress in cash generation and strategic refinement is encouraging, but considerable risks remain.
