Fiscal Year 2026
-
Fiscal year '26 saw a 4% revenue decline but stabilization and margin protection through restructuring, with Track 1 businesses delivering growth. Early progress in digital transformation and AI, a strong balance sheet, and a focus on high-growth segments position the group for improved performance in fiscal year '27.
-
Resilient trading and strong margin discipline offset revenue declines, with robust growth in consumer, government, and digital transformation segments. Portfolio simplification, cost control, and improved working capital underpin a strong balance sheet, while MAC49 is being wound down.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
Revenue and profit declined year-over-year due to contract loss and macro headwinds, but strong cash flow, margin discipline, and investments in AI and U.S. expansion support a positive long-term outlook. Management remains cautious amid ongoing market uncertainty.
-
Revenue was flat year-over-year, with operating profit and EPS down due to tech sector weakness and a major contract loss. Strong growth in non-tech segments and high client retention offset some declines, while restructuring and AI investment continue.
