Trading Update
YouGov, the international market research and data analytics
group, today announces a pre-close trading statement for the full
year ended 31 July 2017.
The Group's trading for the year ended 31 July 2017 is now
expected to be ahead of the Board's previous expectations. YouGov
has achieved another year of revenue growth well ahead of the
global market research sector and maintained the performance trends
reported in the first half of the current financial year. In line
with our strategy, revenue from Data Products and Services has
continued to grow strongly across a number of regions and our
Custom Research business has significantly improved its
profitability.
YouGov's ability to provide accurate, in-depth data on a digital
platform was publicly demonstrated during the period through our
ground-breaking UK General Election seat-by-seat model. Its
combination of connected data and sophisticated analytics is
directly applicable to the analysis and monitoring of audiences in
many marketing contexts.
The Group's international coverage, especially its growing
business in the USA, has also enabled it to benefit from the lower
value of GBP sterling compared to other currencies.
