YouGov’s FY17 year-end trading update confirms that positive trading momentum continued in the second half for Data Products and Services. Results should be ahead of our previous forecasts and well ahead of market growth. The results reflect the growth in high-margin products as well as margin improvements in custom research in addition to some currency benefit. We have moved our PBT numbers up by 5% for FY17e and 9% for FY18e. The shares continue to trade at a premium to the global sector, although that is being eroded by YouGov’s faster growth.
