Pre-Close Trading Update and Notice of Results
YouGov, the international research data and analytics group,
today announces a pre-close trading statement for the full year
ending 31 July 2019.
We are pleased to report that the Group's trading for the year
ending 31 July 2019 is now expected to be comfortably ahead of
expectations for the year. With these results, YouGov has achieved
another year of strong revenue and operating profit growth.
Notably, revenue has continued to progress substantially ahead of
the global market research sector.
This year, in line with our strategy and five-year plan, Data
Products & Services continued its rate of excellent growth, and
remains a strong contributor to profit, while Custom Research
achieved growth rates above the industry average. YouGov continues
to expand into new geographies - with organic operations in Canada
and Mexico established during the year - and has experienced growth
across all regions, with the core target markets of the UK and US
remaining key drivers. As with previous years, while meeting our
targets we have continued to invest throughout the period in our
business to support further growth, with a particular focus on our
technology and new products.
YouGov will publish Full Year Results for the year ended 31 July
2019 on Tuesday 8 October 2019. The YouGov management team will
host a presentation for analysts at FTI Consulting, 200 Aldersgate,
Aldersgate Street, London EC1A 4HD at 9.30am; should you wish to
attend please contact FTI Consulting.
