Highlights include:

Continued success with our marketing campaigns and product improvements across multiple geographies, has driven growth in active users, order frequency and online restaurants;

Accelerated UK order growth of 50% year-on-year (H1 2015: 49%), benefitting marginally from poor weather over the summer;

More than 74% (H1 2015: 69%) of UK orders in Q3 were made via mobile devices, of which more than 41% were by app (H1 2015: 38%);

Doubled the number of UK restaurants trialling 'order on its way' notification to 600, and launched Partner Centre apps - dedicated management tools for Restaurant owners;

Acquired two small businesses during the Third Quarter, Orderit.ca, in Canada; and Nifty Nosh, in Northern Ireland, to add to our market-leading positions in those geographies; and

Integration of the Menulog Group, acquired in June 2015, is underway and the business continues to meet expectations.

 

Outlook:

Given the strong order growth in the Third Quarter, and our increased confidence going into the Fourth Quarter, management increases its revenue expectations for the full year to slightly above £240 million, up from the £230 million guidance issued in August; and

Supported by this improved revenue performance, the Group continues to drive growth with increased investment in areas such as improving the customer experience, bringing greater choice to our consumers and driving the channel shift to mobile. As such EBITDA for the full year remains on track and in line with current expectations.

 

David Buttress, CEO, commented:

"JUST EAT delivered a strong quarter of organic order growth. Our strategy of investing in technology and marketing to drive growth has delivered orders ahead of management expectations with an acceleration in order momentum. In the context of this performance, we are raising our revenue guidance for the full year. I would like to thank the whole JUST EAT team for their hard work and commitment in delivering these excellent results."
