Company outlook raised

Share price after the results: +0.3%

2026 revenue outlook raised: organic growth now 12% to 19% (low end raised) due to contingent commissions tracking ahead of prior expectations.

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“We now expect total revenues to grow organically in the range of 12% to 19% year over year. This increase to the bottom end of our revenue range reflects a more favorable outlook around contingent commissions.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
