TRADING UPDATE
FDM Group, a global professional services provider with a focus on Information
Technology, today provides the following trading update.
The Board anticipates that the Group's financial performance for the full year
2025 will be in line with its expectations.
The economic and geopolitical uncertainty which has been widely reported
across our markets continues to undermine client confidence, which impacts the
length of their decision cycles and demand for our Consultants. However,
since the summer, there has been a degree of pick-up in activity levels in
some of our key operating geographies. In response to these early indicators
we have cautiously increased our volume of consultants in training in the UK,
North America and Australia. We are hopeful that this pick-up in activity
levels will continue.
The Group had 2,003 Consultants assigned to clients at 31 October 2025 (30
June 2025: 2,173), (31 October 2024: 2,906).
The Group has a robust balance sheet, with £40.1 million of cash at 31
October 2025 (30 June 2025: £34.6 million), (31 October 2024: £47.7 million)
and no debt. An interim dividend of 6 pence per share, amounting to £6.6
million, is due to be paid on 14 November 2025 (2024: 10 pence per share,
amounting to £10.9 million, paid on 1 November 2024).
We continue to take the appropriate measures to adjust our resources to align
with market conditions, prudently managing our cost base while remaining
sufficiently agile to respond to evolving client demand.
ENDS
