Foxtons Group (LON:FOXT) Posts Quarterly Earnings Results

Foxtons Group (LON:FOXT) posted its quarterly earnings results on Thursday. The company reported GBX 5 earnings per share for the quarter, Digital Look Earnings reports. Foxtons Group had a return on equity of 11.08% and a net margin of 9.07%.

Here are the key takeaways from Foxtons Group’s conference call:

• The business delivered resilience from its lettings-led strategy with 5% revenue growth to £172.5m, a 5% rise in adjusted EBITDA, flat adjusted operating profit, and a portfolio exceeding 32,000 tenancies that now generate over two‑thirds of group revenue.
• The Renters’ Rights Act (effective 1 May) removes fixed‑term tenancies and introduces annual, market‑linked rent reviews and stronger enforcement — Foxtons expects this to expand the addressable market as DIY landlords outsource management, increase tenancy stability, and accelerate industry consolidation in its favour.
• Acquisitions are driving growth and scale — Reading and Watford have already outperformed targets, and the January 2026 purchases in Milton Keynes and Birmingham provide new platforms for organic growth, bolt‑on deals and targeted synergies, with the group targeting >20% returns on invested capital.
• Profitability is under pressure from a volatile sales market and external cost headwinds (Employer NI, Living Wage), with sales still loss‑making and overheads up; management expects a ~£10m working‑capital investment to move to annual lettings billing by 2027, which will weigh on cash flow despite low net debt and comfortable covenant headroom.
