Summarized from source with an LLMView SourceSector: Consumer ServicesLatest Results (19.10.2025):
Compass Group PLC reported strong financial results for the third quarter ended 30 June 2025, showcasing robust organic revenue growth and impressive performance in mergers and acquisitions (M&A). The company has upgraded its full-year 2025 profit guidance, reflecting its positive trajectory and strategic acquisitions.
Organic Revenue Growth
The company achieved an 8.6% organic revenue growth in Q3 2025 and 8.5% year-to-date (YTD). North America led the growth with 9.6% in Q3 and 9.0% YTD, while International markets grew by 6.6% in Q3 and 7.6% YTD. Both regions maintained positive volume growth, supported by strong client retention rates exceeding 96%.
Merger and Acquisition Performance
Compass Group maintained its net expenditure on M&A at $1.1 billion for the year to date. The integration of recent acquisitions is progressing ahead of schedule and performing well. The company has also agreed to acquire Vermaat Groep B.V., a leading premium food services business in Europe, for approximately €1.5 billion, pending regulatory approval.
Upgraded Profit Guidance
Due to strong organic growth and better-than-expected M&A performance, Compass Group has upgraded its 2025 profit guidance. The company now expects constant currency underlying operating profit growth to approach 11%, driven by over 8% organic revenue growth and ongoing margin improvements.
Currency Impact
If current spot rates persist for the remainder of the year, foreign exchange translation is expected to negatively impact 2024 revenue by $57 million and operating profit by $13 million. The company is monitoring currency fluctuations and their potential effects on financial performance.
