Experian reports steady Q3 growth, maintains outlook

DUBLIN - Experian (OTC:EXPGF) plc, a leading global data and technology firm, reported a robust performance for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, ending December 31, 2024. The company announced total revenue growth of 8% at constant exchange rates, with organic revenue headline growth at 6%. This excludes the impact of data breach services, which, when removed, saw organic revenue increase by 8%.

CEO Brian Cassin highlighted the consistent strong performance and underscored the company's unchanged full-year growth expectations. Experian anticipates organic revenue growth to remain within the 6-8% range and margin accretion at the upper end of 30-50 basis points, all at constant exchange rates.

The B2B segment in North America saw an 8% increase, driven by mortgage, Clarity, and analytics and marketing solutions, while the Automotive and Health sectors also delivered strong performances.

Latin America, contributing 14% to the group revenue, matched expectations with an 8% organic revenue growth. Despite foreign exchange headwinds, the region's total revenue growth at constant currency stood at 10%. Brazil's B2B segment showed resilience amidst macroeconomic uncertainty, and Consumer Services in the region surged by 22%, bolstered by the success of the Limpa Nome Fair and credit marketplace.

The UK and Ireland region, representing 12% of group revenue, reported a modest organic revenue growth of 1%. Consumer Services in this market grew by 10%, thanks to product enhancements and improved customer engagement.

EMEA and Asia Pacific, making up 6% of group revenue, saw an impressive 9% organic revenue growth. The acquisition of illion significantly contributed to a 35% total constant currency revenue growth, with notable strength in Australia, South East Asia, and India.
