So good morning all. Q1 2025. I’m joined by a cast of thousands here in London. On my left is Radhika, who’s just joined us as CFO, subbing for, for Mary on my right, who is masterminding the handover period with Radhika. And on her right is Scott Spirit, and on my left is Jean-Benoit Berty.
So we’re here this morning to go through Q1. Trading update from Mary is the first section. Second section, market momentum. Third, client, analysis, and then business momentum all done by Scott. And then I’ll come back briefly for a summary and outlook, and then we’ll take any Q&A.

Thank you, Martin. Good morning, and thank you for joining us today.
The macroeconomic environment remained challenging in the first quarter. Net revenue of £164 million decreased 12% on a reported basis or 11% like-for-like, with continued caution from clients and a reduction in activity from one key technology services client already disclosed.
Operational EBITDA for the quarter was in line with our expectations. It benefits from cost reductions made as we continue to align our resources with activity levels. We maintain our full-year guidance on a constant currency basis with target net revenue and operational EBITDA broadly
