Trading update for the half-year ended 30 June 2022

 

First-half revenue increased to $73m, up c.25% year-over-year (YoY) at constant currency; FY22 revenue growth expected to be in line with expectations with adjusted EBITDA* breakeven in FY24

 

Trustpilot Group PLC ("Trustpilot"), a leading global review platform, provides an update on trading for the first six months of the financial year (1 January 2022 to 30 June 2022 ("H1 FY22")).

 

For H1 FY22 Trustpilot expects to report total revenue of $73m, up c.25% at constant currency (cc). We expect to report H1 FY22 ARR of $149m, compared to $134m in the prior year, representing c.23% cc growth. Total bookings increased to $87m, up by c.22% cc, versus a strong performance in the prior-year period (H1 FY21: +28% cc) and reflecting both continued strength in the UK and Europe & RoW regions, and c.8% cc growth in North America, where we expect our recently implemented new go-to-market strategy to begin to deliver an acceleration in bookings growth in H2 and beyond.

 

While noting the rapidly changing and uncertain macroeconomic environment, we continue to expect to deliver constant-currency revenue growth for FY22 in line with previous expectations and reiterate our outlook for adjusted EBITDA breakeven for FY24.
