Executive summary
Marked a strategic pivot from service-led to technology-first, with AI and SaaS at the core of the business model, supported by new leadership, a refreshed operating model, and a brand relaunch.

Strong partnerships with Microsoft, AWS, Cohere, and Google Cloud underpin product innovation and market reach.
Acquisition of Papercup fully integrated, enhancing AI for video capabilities.

Financial highlights
FY25 revenue was GBP 690.1 million, an organic constant currency decline of 0.7% year-over-year and down 3.9% reported.
Gross margin declined to 43.4%, mainly due to adverse mix, lower high-margin revenue, and operational challenges.

Adjusted EBITDA was GBP 100.8 million, with a margin of 14.6%, down 500 basis points year-over-year.
Operational free cash flow rose 46% to GBP 80.1 million, driven by working capital improvements and lower CapEx.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
