Challenging Market: SThree faced tough market conditions in FY '24, with soft new business activity and industry-wide uncertainty.
Resilient Performance: Despite these challenges, the company delivered its third-highest net fee and operating profit on record, supported by robust contract extensions and cost management.
Contract Focus: Contract now accounts for 84% of net fees, up from 82%, providing more predictable, profitable revenue.
Technology Investment: The Technology Improvement Program (TIP) is on track; 80% of the business is now on a new digital platform, with early AI-driven productivity gains emerging.
Outlook: The board expects FY '25 profit before tax to be around GBP 25 million, reflecting ongoing market softness and up to GBP 7 million in one-off restructuring costs.
Shareholder Returns: A share buyback of up to GBP 20 million has been launched, with over GBP 3 million already repurchased; the FY dividend is 14.3p, in line with policy.
Guidance Maintained: Management is cautious about the near-term outlook but confident in the company's strategy, positioning, and long-term growth prospects.
