Dow Jones

Jul 09, 2025

By Denny Jacob

American depositary receipts for WPP tumbled 18% in premarket trading after cutting its full year financial guidance.

ADRs were trading at around $29.26. The stock is down 30% on the year.

The U.K. advertising and marketing-services group said Wednesday that it expects like-for-like revenue less pass-through costs this year to fall by between 3% and 5%, from a previous estimate of between a flat performance and a 2% decline.

The new guidance comes as it said like-for-like revenue less pass-through costs in the first half is expected to fall by between 4.2% and 4.5% to around 5 billion pounds ($6.8 billion), with a decline of 5.5% to 6.0% in the second quarter.
