An announcement from Vianet Group plc ( (GB:VNET) ) is now available.
Vianet Group has secured a long-term, multi-year contract in the United States to roll out its Beverage Metrics inventory solution across multiple locations of a major full-service restaurant brand, reinforcing its strategic push into the US hospitality market alongside recent wins such as World of Beer and a partnership with Fintech. In its trading update, the company reported a 10.5% rise in first-half 2026 EBITDA to £1.88 million and highlighted growing recurring income from expanded customer contracts and new client wins, but warned that full-year profit is expected to be broadly in line with last year due to slower deployment rates, ongoing investment in its Beverage Metrics platform and the loss of ERP platform income, though net debt remains on track and management signals confidence in sustaining dividend growth and delivering higher shareholder returns.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:VNET) stock is a Hold with a £73.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Vianet Group plc stock, see the GB:VNET Stock Forecast page.
