**Summary**
YouGov PLC, a global research and data analytics group, released its full-year trading update for FY25 (ending July 31, 2025). The company expects performance to align with expectations, driven by strong reported revenue and adjusted operating profit, primarily due to the full-year impact of the CPS acquisition. On an underlying basis, modest revenue growth was achieved, supported by a return to growth in the Data Products division, which saw low-single-digit growth due to stable renewal rates and new client wins. The Research division experienced modest growth, while YouGov Shopper (formerly CPS) performed slightly ahead of expectations, with ongoing investment in growth initiatives.
The Group is on track to realize £20 million in annualized cost savings, with 70% already achieved in FY25. Looking ahead, YouGov remains cautious about volatile market conditions and client budget pressures, emphasizing the need for high-quality data products and innovation to drive medium-term growth. The company highlighted its global reach, unique panel of millions of members, and reputation as a trusted source of real-time insights, powered by advanced technology platforms.
