Confident in delivering FY25 profit ahead of market expectations
Alongside strategic progress, the resilient performance of our print business and continued cost control means that we expect to deliver ahead of current market expectations for the full year.
Digital revenues for the full year are expected to be 1% lower than the prior year (FY24: £130.0m). The factors affecting Q4 digital revenue are unchanged from those outlined in our Q3 trading update. These include a material reduction in Google referral volumes, alongside continued macroeconomic weakness.
Piers North, chief executive: “During the period we made significant strategic progress, notably launching digital subscriptions, expanding video output and growing our off-platform audiences. We look forward to the year ahead and thank our teams for their efforts in delivering this year's results.”
Results for the year ended 31 December 2025 will be announced on 3 March 2026.
