Shoprite issued its 2026 annual reports on October 9, 2026, and set its annual general meeting for November 6, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. South Africa Standard Time, according to Moneyweb. The reports include the integrated report, sustainability report and AGM notice, giving shareholders a dated framework for the next corporate milestone.
Three milestones shape the year
On March 4, 2026, Simply Wall St reported first-half 2026 earnings per share of ZAR 6.97, up from ZAR 6.66 in the first half of 2025. On September 2, 2026, the same source listed full-year 2026 revenue of ZAR 270.8 billion, up 7.2 percent, and net income of ZAR 8.10 billion, up 9.5 percent.
On October 9, 2026, Moneyweb reported the release of the 2026 annual-report suite and the November 6 AGM date. The sequence moves from interim earnings to full-year performance and then to formal shareholder proceedings.
What do the reports mean for earnings?
FY2026 group sales rose 7.2 percent to ZAR 270.8 billion, while trading profit increased 8.4 percent to ZAR 16.2 billion, according to Risij News. The operating comparison is important because profit grew faster than sales, pointing to operating leverage in the reported fiscal-year figures.
The same FY2026 report recorded Checkers sales of ZAR 105.2 billion, up 10 percent, while Sixty60 sales increased 34.7 percent to ZAR 25.5 billion across 997 stores. These figures show where the group is adding scale beyond its traditional supermarket base.
Shareholder dates now set
The next two dated steps are October 27, 2026, the last day to trade Shoprite securities to qualify for AGM participation, and October 30, 2026, the record date for voting eligibility, as stated by Moneyweb. The AGM follows on November 6, 2026, with results scheduled for publication on the same date.
