DHG -5.59% was hit hard today as 1Q25 digital revenue growth of 9% y/y missed expectations which were nearer 15%. On a more positive side, they said October new listings growth has continued to accelerate, underpinning y/y depth revenue growth of 19% like-for-like. They also reaffirmed FY25 cost and Ebitda margin guidance is maintained, with costs increasing in the high single to low double-digit percentage range, and Ebitda margins expected to be stable, with margin expansion expected in FY26 and beyond.
