Half Year 2024 Dis-Chem Pharmacies Ltd Earnings Call Transcript

In the current financial year, the group has also been impacted by the base effects of the prior year's performance, which were distinctly different across the 2 halves of the year, with the first half of the prior year delivering a strong performance when compared to the second half of the prior year.
