An update from Informa ( (GB:INF) ) is now available.
Informa reported record 2025 revenue of £4.04bn and adjusted operating profit of £1.14bn, driven by strong performance in B2B live events and disciplined cost control, which lifted margins and supported an eleventh consecutive year of double-digit adjusted EPS growth. Robust free cash flow of £884.8m underpinned £620m of shareholder returns through higher dividends and buybacks, even as statutory profit was dampened by non-cash charges related to intangible amortisation and an impairment at Informa TechTarget.
Looking ahead, the group is targeting at least mid-single-digit underlying revenue growth and faster earnings expansion in 2026, supported by strong early trading, high forward bookings and continued momentum in IMEA despite some travel disruption. Its four‑year One Informa programme is accelerating AI adoption, data-led marketing and brand expansion, while balance sheet strength is allowing increased share repurchases and ongoing investment in growth and sustainability initiatives such as its FasterForward strategy.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:INF) stock is a Buy with a £1240.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Informa stock, see the GB:INF Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:INF Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:INF is a Outperform.
Informa’s strong financial performance and positive earnings call sentiment are major strengths, supporting a stable outlook. However, the high P/E ratio suggests overvaluation, and technical indicators show potential overbought conditions, which moderate the overall score.
