During previous speculation, ITV have been slow to confirm. Not this time!

It says to me, it's all being taken much more seriously.

When it's reported on the BBC you know it's a story. Good luck all genuine investors:

This is a developing story!

Déjà vu.

Yes, quite, Wilson63

One was acknowledging one's own typo!

MrBB,

Maybe it's because you had 'multibangers' instead of multi-baggers!

Sorry to hear that I can only imagine you made some fatal errors - like not quitting while ahead.

Entering the Chinese automotive market, one of the largest in the world, positions Seeing Machines for significant growth.

This looks like a multi banger - although that's purely speculative - DYOR

Looking ahead, even if the last three months of 2025 are negative for advertising, due to the uncertainty surrounding the budget, it won't take too long for it to change to a positive outlook. Remember, FIFA World Cup 26 and FIFA World Cup 2030.

Digital advertising revenue surged by 15%, driven by the continued success of the ITVX platform. This indicates that ITV is effectively leveraging digital channels, which are increasingly important in the current media landscape.

ITV Studios revenue increased by 11%, reflecting strong demand from global streaming platforms.

Which will hopefully encourage green shoots:

The shift from private sales to affordable housing raises significant concerns for investors (although essential for societal improvement). Barratt needs to manage these challenges, which they are doing, to sustain profit margins while pursuing long-term growth goals. It is wise for them to keep a close eye on market trends and make strategic adjustments as needed. While the potential effects on profitability are legitimate and important for investors to think about, I am optimistic that the government will adopt a balanced approach to the housing issue.

Yes, it will be interesting - although I don't envisage much change until after the upcoming budget.

The CEO's remarks suggest that Barratt Redrow is navigating uncertainties well, but is hoping for policy changes to bolster homebuyer demand. It's all about the budget - which could be better than some people think!!

Not much unchanged it would seem on the surface. From what I can see there's caution ahead of the budget. They do say they are encouraged by government planning reform - IMO these are very cheap ATM.

Barratt Redrow, given its extensive operations and recent merger, will be evaluated based on how effectively it implements growth and margin strategies.

Maybe, out of spite, he's trying to facilitate an opportunity for others. He couldn't get everyone else to play the game his way, so he's taking his ball home.

It probably means results in March are going to be very good. Let's see if that's the case.

I'm out, again.

Nice update - good profit. Unfortunately it revolves around the world of Trumpian blunders, so not a walk in the park. It's been another good trip - I might be back!

Negative gammon doomsters need not apply:

This, and the next upcoming two sets of full results, is the legacy of the outgoing CEO!

Amidst all the gloom talk the government are doing better than what the media is portraying:
