DDubaist

Dubaist · Glossary

Like-for-like sales

Sales growth for a defined set of comparable locations or channels that meet an issuer eligibility rule.

The eligibility age, openings, closures, renovations, acquisitions, currency basis and online-channel treatment can change the result. Preserve the issuer's definition and period, and do not reconstruct a missing like-for-like measure from total revenue or store counts.

Use this definition in context

Why the term matters

Dubaist uses this term with one stable meaning across public profiles, research, events and methodology. That reduces ambiguity but does not make different companies, periods or evidence scopes automatically comparable.

What to check when it appears

Read the adjacent company or security identity, reporting period, unit, scope, source, locator, verification date and publication state. If one required field is missing, keep that boundary visible.

Evidence boundary

This definition explains a classification. It is not evidence that a value, event or conclusion exists for a particular issuer, and it never replaces the cited primary source.
