家乐福下调了全年财务目标，将原因归咎于近期法国社会动荡削弱了消费者信心并让购物者望而却步。
SA lowered its full-year financial targets, blaming recent social unrest in France for undermining consumer confidence and keeping shoppers away.
这家零售商将今年调整后每股收益的展望从此前的“高个位数增长”下调至“持平至微增”。它还削减了2026年经常性营业利润率、净自由现金流和资本支出的目标。
The grocer reduced its outlook for adjusted earnings per share to “stable to slight growth” this year from a previous target of “high single-digit growth.”It also trimmed its 2026 targets for recurring operating income margin, net free cash flow and capital expenditure.
首席执行官亚历山大·邦帕尔周二在声明中表示：“我们集团在法国面临着前所未有的局面。关于消费支出趋势以及我们的门店将能在何种条件下营业，存在高度不确定性。”周六，法国各地抗议活动吸引了超过50万人参加，但因快速移动的群体以数百家商店为目标，针对生活成本担忧的示威活动演变为恶性事件。周日晚间破坏行为持续，巴黎出现商店被洗劫和更多逮捕行动。
“Our group is facing an unprecedented situation in France,” Chief Executive Officer Alexandre Bompard said in a statement Tuesday. “There is a high degree of uncertainty regarding consumer spending trends and the conditions under which our stores will be able to open.”French protests drew more than half a million people on Saturday across the country, but the demonstrations over cost-of-living concerns deteriorated as fast-moving groups targeted hundreds of shops. Vandalism continued on Sunday night, with looted stores and more arrests in Paris.
这家经营超市、大卖场和便利店的公司表示，法国客流量下降、因宵禁导致营业时间减少，以及安保和物流方面的运营成本增加。
The company, which operates supermarkets, hypermarkets and convenience stores, cited lower footfall in France, reduced opening hours related to curfews, and increased operating costs on security and logistics.
邦帕尔说：“随着我们进入零售业至关重要的年底旺季，这种情况正在对消费支出产生重大影响——消费支出本已因能源成本上升而承压。”
“As we enter the critical end-of-year period for the retail sector, this situation is having a significant impact on consumer spending — which is already under pressure from rising energy costs,” Bompard said.
