Trading update
S4Capital confirms that trading for the first 11 months and forecasts for December continue in line
with market expectations, delivering very strong like-for-like revenue and gross profit/net revenue
growth well ahead of the previous latest company guidance of 40% (at almost double the growth in
our addressable markets, which are forecast to grow 20-30% in 2021)*.
Operational EBITDA margins improved significantly in the second half, as flagged in the half year
report in September and the third quarter statement in November. Even after allowing for the cash
consideration paid in respect of mergers recently completed, including 4 Mile Analytics, the
Company has monthly net debt ranging between £10 and £30 million, reflecting strong operational
cash flow.
Commenting on 2022 prospects Sir Martin Sorrell, S4Capital Executive Chairman said, “We are
excited about the growth opportunity ahead of us in 2022 and beyond, all incorporated into our
fourth three year plan for 2022-24. Our budgets are set at 25% like-for-like gross profit/net revenue
growth in line with that three year plan, which seeks to double the size of the company organically
and targets an improvement in the operational EBITDA margin back towards previous levels”.
