Valuation: Gap closed YouGov’s valuation is reflecting its growing record of delivering market expectations, its online business model and its mounting reputation for developing innovative products that address gaps in the market. The discount on which it used to trade relative to the international market research (MR) sector has been closed and it now ranks alongside industry favourites such as BrainJuicer and Forrester, which have clearer online strategies.
Pollsters YouGov fell on Monday after it said current trading was in line with the board's expectations, but the macro-economic environment, especially in Europe, remained uncertain. Total revenue in the year to the end of July was up 4% to £58.1m, with pre-tax profits rising 7% to £440,000 compared to the year before. Shares were down 3% at 1545.
Commenting on the results, Stephan Shakespeare, Chief Executive, said: "I am pleased to report that we have achieved the objectives we set at the beginning of the year. We have continued to develop and invest in our growing portfolio of data products and services and increase revenue from these. This has helped to drive the momentum in our custom and data businesses, particularly in the US and UK. The focus on profitability under the new management in Germany is delivering planned margin improvements. The launch of the French business has gone well and regionally generated business is growing strongly in the Middle East offsetting the expected end to the large historic contract in Iraq. Innovation remains a key differentiator and the initial customer feedback from recent launches has been very encouraging. YouGov is well placed to continue to outperform the research market both in terms of sales growth and our reputation for new product development: this, combined with our strong balance sheet, underpins our continued investment in the business and the decision to commence the payment of a dividend. Current trading is in line with the Board's expectations although the macro-economic environment especially in Europe remains uncertain"`

Panmure Gordon maintained its "buy" rating for YouGov (YOU) with an increased target price of 105p from 85p.

Panmure Gordon maintained its "buy" stance for YouGov (YOU) with a 85p target price. The market research company delivered a strong first half performance for the 2012 financial year ending in July, with revenue growth of 12% and the broker noted the planned launch of two new products which could drive growth in 2013, the Executive Dashboard and Social Media Analysis Tool (SoMA). Panmure believes that the release of the SoMA is likely to coincide with the IPO of Facebook, which should increase the awareness of the product. The broker also pointed out that YouGov will introduce a maiden dividend at the end of the financial year
Pre-close Trading Update YouGov plc, the international online market research agency, today issued the following update for the six months to 31 January 2012, ahead of the interim results announcement due in April 2012. Trading across the Group in the first half of the current financial year has been in line with our expectations and the Board is confident of the full year outcome. Double digit organic revenue growth has been achieved in the six months. As announced at the time of the preliminary results in October, the Group is investing significantly in developing new markets and products which has reduced profit margins in the first half. The Group's balance sheet remains strong with net cash at 31 January 2012 of approximately £10 million.
