Bulls say / Bears say
RELX posted a 9% rise in half-year adjusted operating profit to £1.65 billion and grew revenue 7% to £4.74 billion, powered by strong demand for generative AI products like Lexis+ AI Protégé and ScienceDirect AI.
Underlying revenue increased 9% and adjusted operating profit was up 11% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, reflecting growth in higher-value legal analytics and disciplined cost management; renewal rates and new sales were strong across all segments.
As of June 30, 2025, RELX kept a prudent net debt to EBITDA ratio of 2.2x, maintained a balanced debt maturity schedule, and 63% of debt was fixed-rate, giving the company solid liquidity and investment capacity.
Exhibitions revenue in the first half of 2025 dropped 3% year-on-year to £581 million, with a 1% decline at constant currencies, highlighting the segment’s exposure to event cycles and ongoing macroeconomic pressures.
Net debt climbed to £7.44 billion at June 30, 2025, up from £6.56 billion at December 31, 2024, increasing leverage to 2.2x from 1.8x and potentially reducing strategic flexibility as interest rates rise.
