Foxtons Group plc Provides Earnings Guidance for Fourth Quarter 2025 Foxtons Group plc provided earnings guidance for fourth quarter 2025. Sales is likely to remain subdued for the rest of the year, in particular in the run up to the delayed Autumn Budget which is creating additional market uncertainty and making it more challenging than usual to accurately predict Fourth Quarter Sales revenue. As a consequence, there is a risk that Fourth Quarter Sales revenue falls below management's expectations. Despite the current weakness in the sales market, there are encouraging signs for medium-term growth across the Group. The Group's strategic focus on Lettings continues to provide a stable and resilient earnings base and provides both organic and acquisitive growth opportunities. Sales market conditions are expected to improve, driven by greater clarity from the Autumn Budget and the potential for interest rate cuts. With rebuilt operational capabilities, the Group is well positioned to maximise returns as volumes recover. Announcement • Sep 09
