"as a result, we are currently seeing increased levels of licensing of existing content rather than new original content, a growing interest from streamers for live and near live content, and customers looking for localisation partners to utilise ai to increase speed and lower costs. "whilst it is early days, as a technology-first business, zoo is well placed to capitalise on these shifts. growing demand for localisation services within reduced timeframes, and the increased use of ai, allows us to leverage our proven technology platform to meet customer needs. we recently successfully completed a dubbing project in 24 hours, compared with 2-3 weeks which is more typical in the industry, and integrated ai for a key customer. further consolidation in the industry means customers are working with a smaller number of genuine end to end providers, such as zoo. "we are seeing the benefits of the proactive changes we made during fy25, and are continuing to implement our cost saving plans during fy26. these have allowed us to create a sustainable platform for the future while retaining the flexibility to scale as we deliver increased order volumes. "revenues for h1 fy26 are expected to be approximately $22 million, in line with h2 fy 25, with the revenue from higher margin media services and subtitling expected to grow by 20% offsetting the reduction in dubbing revenues. with the cost savings implemented being realised, and the favourable revenue mix, h1 ebitda is in line with management expectations. with the improved profitability, the group is continuing to normalise its working capital position after active management of creditors in fy25."  presentation slides that will accompany an investor update following the agm will be available on the company's website later today. shareholders may register to join a live stream of the agm, investor briefing and q&a here: https://www.zoodigital.com/agm-2025  the company intends to announce its unaudited interim financial results for the six months to 30 september 2025 in november 2025.   this announcement contains inside information as defined in article 7 of the market abuse regulation no. 596/2014 ("mar").  upon the publication of this announcement, this inside information is now considered to be in the public domain. the persons responsible for making this announcement are ceo stuart green and cfo robert pursell.   * the group believes market consensus for fy26 to be revenue of $42.4 million, ebitda (adjusted for share-based payments) of $4.2 million and cash of $3.3 million.   for further enquiries, please contact:       zoo digital group plc +44 (0) 114 241 3700  stuart green - chief executive officer   robert pursell - chief financial officer      canaccord genuity (nominated adviser and broker) +44 (0) 20 7523 8000  simon bridges / harry gooden / andrew potts / george grainger      vigo consulting (financial pr) +44 (0)20 7390 0230  tim mccall / rozi morris / joe quinlan zoo@vigoconsulting.com    about zoo digital group plc: zoo digital partners with major hollywood studios and streaming services to tell their stories to audiences around the world. the group's localisation and digital media services allow customers to globalise content across different territories, languages and distribution platforms, extending its reach and profitability. deploying proprietary technology platforms and 12,000+ freelancers, zoo offers end-to-end dubbing, subtitling and captioning, metadata creation and localisation, mastering, artwork creation and localisation, and media processing. zoo has frameworks in place with all major hollywood studios and streaming services, helping them to capitalise on new opportunities in a fast-paced industry. customers include disney, nbcuniversal, netflix and paramount global. founded in 2001, the group has a global presence with dedicated hubs in los angeles, london, dubai, turkey, south korea, india, denmark, spain, italy and germany as well as a development and production centre in sheffield, uk. www.zoodigital.com   this information is provided by rns, the news service of the london stock exchange. rns is approved by the financial conduct authority to act as a primary information provider in the united kingdom. terms and conditions relating to the use and distribution of this information may apply. for further information, please contact rns@lseg.com or visit www.rns.com.  rns may use your ip address to confirm compliance with the terms and conditions, to analyse how you engage with the information contained in this communication, and to share such analysis on an anonymised basis with others as part of our commercial services. for further information about how rns and the london stock exchange use the personal data you provide us, please see our privacy policy.   end   agmdzgzlgdngkzz return to news summary
