“Net profit is expected to come in at €160m (US$180.7m) partly helped by lower tax rates,” chairman Jef Colruyt was quoted by Dow Jones as saying.
The company said this summer’s heat wave had helped drive sales growth of 10.5% between April and August.
Colruyt said it plans to invest €166m in building new stores and refurbishing old stores during the fiscal year to 31 March.
