Solid growth despite market volatility
Group TTV was €8.2bn, up 8% on the prior year at constant currency, significantly outperforming the market which grew c.4% in the same period(3). Growth was stronger in the first half of the year. In the second half of the fiscal year, increased economic and political uncertainty led to a deterioration in consumer sentiment and significantly more volatile travel and leisure trading patterns.
Group revenue of €720m was up 5% on the prior year at constant currency. Take rate, the percentage of TTV that converts to revenue, was 8.8%, 0.2ppts lower than FY '24 as a result of changes in mix and commercial actions to remain competitive in a more challenging trading environment.
A milestone year for HBX Group

We are looking forward to the future with confidence.

Our new operating structure is empowering our performance, strengthening our execution, creating a more customer-focused business that will be even more efficient and agile.
