Market News
Web Travel provided a preliminary update on the 1H25 financial results of its WebBeds business for the 6 months ending 30 September 2024.
WebBeds’ TTV/revenue margins have been impacted by the collapse of FTI Group, the Paris Olympics and the European Football Championship. Subsequent to the AGM update, European margins remained subdued, and overall margins were further impacted by customer financial incentive agreements (overrides) in place, which are under review. As a result, 1H25 preliminary TTV/revenue margins are now expected to be c.6.4%, down from c.7% as indicated at the AGM. The company has adjusted its preliminary EBITDA margins for WebBeds in the first half of FY 2025 to around 44%, marking a reduction from the previously guided 52%.
The company’s 1H25 results are scheduled to be released on Wednesday, 20th November 2024, where further details will be provided.
