JD Sports has said it remains confident that its profits will reach record heights during its current financial year.
The Greater Manchester-headquartered retail giant said it "maintains its view" that the headline profit before tax and exceptional items for the year to January 28, 2023, will be in line with the record performance for the prior year.
That year saw JD Sports rack up profits before tax and exceptional items of £947.2m, up from £421.3m.
