  • Maintained full-year 2025 outlook for organic revenue growth, adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow
  • Repaid Canadian $1.4 billion notes (U.S. $1.0 billion) with cash on hand in May 2025
  • Launching new agentic AI solutions leveraging Thomson Reuters content and tools for our legal, tax and accounting markets

"We saw good momentum continue in the second quarter, with revenue in-line and margins modestly ahead of our expectations", said Steve Hasker, President and CEO of Thomson Reuters.

Measures" section and the tables appended to this news release for additional information on these and other non-IFRS financial
measures, including how they are defined and reconciled to the most directly comparable IFRS measures.

Revenues increased 3% due to 3% growth in recurring revenues (82% of total revenues) and 5% growth in transactions revenues, partly offset by a 7% decline in Global Print. Total company revenue growth was negatively impacted by net acquisitions and disposals of 5%. Foreign currency had a slightly positive impact on revenue growth.

  • Organic revenues increased 7% reflecting 9% growth in recurring revenues, 7% growth in transactions revenues and a 7% decline in Global Print.
  • The company's "Big 3" segments reported organic revenue growth of 9% and collectively comprised 82% of total revenues.

Operating profit increased 5%, primarily due to higher revenues and a benefit from other operating gains reflected in the current-year period compared to other operating losses in the prior-year period. These items were partly offset by higher operating expenses and amortization of computer software.

  • Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes other operating gains and losses, amortization of computer software, as well as other adjustments, increased 5% and the related margin increased to 37.8% from 37.1% in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher operating leverage.

Diluted EPS decreased to $0.69 per share compared to $1.86 per share in the prior-year period. The current-year period included currency losses reflected in other finance costs or income. The prior-year period included a $468 million or a $1.04 per share non-cash tax benefit related to tax legislation enacted in Canada and an increase in value of the company's former investment in London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG).

  • Adjusted EPS, which excludes the currency losses, the non-cash tax benefit and the increase in value of LSEG, as well as other adjustments, increased to $0.87 per share compared to $0.85 per share in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher adjusted EBITDA, partly offset by higher income tax expense and amortization of internally developed software.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $41 million primarily due to cash benefits from higher operating profit.

  • Free cash flow increased by $25 million as higher net cash provided by operating activities was partly offset by higher capital expenditures.

n/a: not applicable

Unless otherwise noted, all revenue growth comparisons by customer segment in this news release are at constant currency (which excludes the impact of foreign currency) as Thomson Reuters believes this provides the best basis to measure performance.

Legal Professionals

Revenues decreased 3% substantially due to the impact from the disposal of FindLaw, which negatively impacted recurring and transactions revenues. Organic revenue growth was 8%.

  • Recurring revenues decreased 2% (97% of total, increased 9% organic). Organic revenue growth was primarily driven by Westlaw, CoCounsel, CoCounsel Drafting, Practical Law, CLEAR, and the segment's international businesses.
  • Transactions revenues decreased 22% (3% of total, decreased 7% organic).

Adjusted EBITDA increased 4% to $339 million.

  • The margin increased to 47.8% from 45.0% primarily reflecting the disposal of the FindLaw business and operating leverage.

Corporates

Revenues increased 6% and organic revenue growth was 9%.

  • Recurring revenues increased 8% (88% of total, increased 9% organic). Organic revenue growth was primarily driven by Indirect and Direct Tax, Pagero, Practical Law, and the segment's international businesses.
  • Transactions revenues decreased 2% (12% of total, increased 4% organic). Organic revenue growth was primarily driven by increases in Indirect Tax, Confirmation, SurePrep and the segment's international businesses.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 3% to $169 million.

  • The margin decreased to 35.7% from 36.8% primarily reflecting higher technology and product development costs.

Tax & Accounting Professionals

Revenues increased 13%, including the acquisition impact of SafeSend which was reflected in transactions revenues. Organic revenue growth was 11%.

  • Recurring revenues increased 9% (69% of total, all organic). Organic revenue growth was primarily driven by the segment's Latin America business and its tax products.
  • Transactions revenues increased 23% (31% of total, increased 14% organic) primarily driven by SurePrep, SafeSend, UltraTax and Confirmation.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 22% to $113 million.

  • The margin increased to 39.3% from 36.8%, primarily reflecting operating leverage on higher revenue growth and the timing of certain expenses.

The Tax & Accounting Professionals segment is the company's most seasonal business with approximately 60% of full-year revenues typically generated in the first and fourth quarters. As a result, the margin performance of this segment has been generally higher in the first and fourth quarters as costs are typically incurred in a more linear fashion throughout the year.

Reuters News

Revenues increased 5%, all organic, primarily due to higher Professional and Agency revenues and a contractual price increase from our news agreement with the Data & Analytics business of LSEG.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 11% to $45 million.

  • The margin decreased to 20.8% from 24.8% primarily due to higher editorial coverage costs and investments across the business.

Global Print

Revenues decreased 7%, all organic, driven by lower shipment volumes and the migration of customers from Global Print to Westlaw.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 5% to $41 million, and the margin increased to 36.0% from 35.2%.

Corporate Costs

Corporate costs were $29 million in both the current and prior-year periods.

Revenues increased 2% due to 2% growth in recurring revenues (79% of total revenues) and 1% growth in transactions revenues, partly offset by a 7% decline in Global Print. Total company revenue growth was negatively impacted by net acquisitions and disposals of 5%. Foreign currency had no impact on revenue growth.

  • Organic revenues increased 7% reflecting 9% growth in recurring revenues, 3% growth in transactions revenues and a 6% decline in Global Print.
  • The company's "Big 3" segments reported organic revenue growth of 9% and collectively comprised 83% of total revenues.

Operating profit increased 3%, primarily due to higher revenues and a benefit from other operating gains reflected in the current-year period compared to other operating losses in the prior-year period. These items were partly offset by higher operating expenses and amortization of computer software.

  • Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes other operating gains and losses, amortization of computer software, as well as other adjustments, increased 2% and the related margin increased slightly to 40.1% from 40.0%. Foreign currency contributed 20 basis points to the year-over-year change in adjusted EBITDA margin.

Diluted EPS decreased to $1.65 per share compared to $2.92 per share in the prior-year period. The current-year period included currency losses reflected in other finance costs or income. The prior-year period included a $468 million or $1.04 per share non-cash tax benefit related to tax legislation enacted in Canada and an increase in value of the company's former investment in LSEG.

  • Adjusted EPS, which excludes the currency losses, the non-cash tax benefit and the increase in value of LSEG, as well as other adjustments, increased to $2.00 per share compared to $1.97 per share in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher adjusted EBITDA, partly offset by higher amortization of internally developed software.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $54 million primarily due to cash benefits from higher operating profit.

  • Free cash flow increased by $31 million as higher net cash provided by operating activities was partly offset by higher capital expenditures.

2025 Outlook

The company maintained its 2025 full-year outlook announced on February 6, 2025, except as follows:

  • Depreciation and amortization of computer software has been updated to reflect lower amortization of internally developed software than previously forecasted. Our full-year adjusted depreciation and amortization guidance is now $825 million to $835 million, with $625 million to $635 million related to depreciation and amortization of internally developed software.
  • Net interest expense is expected to be approximately $130 million, which is below our previous guidance of approximately $150 million due to higher than previously forecasted interest rates benefiting interest income.

The company's outlook for 2025 in the table below assumes constant currency rates and incorporates the recent SafeSend acquisition and the disposals of FindLaw and other non-core businesses, but excludes the impact of any future acquisitions or dispositions that may occur during the remainder of the year. Thomson Reuters believes that this type of guidance provides useful insight into the anticipated performance of its businesses.

The company expects its third-quarter 2025 organic revenue growth to be approximately 7% and its adjusted EBITDA margin to be approximately 36%.

The company's 2025 outlook is forward-looking information that is subject to risks and uncertainties (see "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, Material Risks and Material Assumptions"). In particular, the company continues to operate in an uncertain macroeconomic environment, reflecting ongoing geopolitical risk, uneven economic growth and an evolving interest rate and inflationary backdrop. Any worsening of the global economic or business environment, among other factors, could impact the company's ability to achieve its outlook.

Total revenue growth reflects the impact of the disposals of FindLaw and other non-core businesses in December 2024.

The information in this section is forward-looking. Actual results, which will include the impact of currency and future acquisitions and dispositions completed during 2025, may differ materially from the company's 2025 outlook. The information in this section should also be read in conjunction with the section below entitled "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, Material Risks and Material Assumptions."

Debt Repayment

In May 2025, the company repaid its Canadian $1.4 billion (U.S. $1.0 billion) 2.239% notes upon maturity with cash on hand.

Dividends and Common Shares Outstanding

In February 2025, the company announced a 10% or $0.22 per share annualized increase in the dividend to $2.38 per common share, representing the 32nd consecutive year of dividend increases and the fourth consecutive 10% increase. A quarterly dividend of $0.595 per share is payable on September 10, 2025 to common shareholders of record as of August 19, 2025.

As of August 4, 2025, Thomson Reuters had approximately 450.7 million common shares outstanding.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

Thomson Reuters prepares its financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

This news release includes certain non-IFRS financial measures, which include ratios that incorporate one or more non-IFRS financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA (other than at the customer segment level) and the related margin, free cash flow, adjusted earnings and the effective tax rate on adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS, accrued capital expenditures expressed as a percentage of revenues, net debt and leverage ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA, selected measures excluding the impact of foreign currency, changes in revenues computed on an organic basis as well as all financial measures for the "Big 3" segments.

Thomson Reuters uses these non-IFRS financial measures as supplemental indicators of its operating performance and financial position as well as for internal planning purposes and the company's business outlook. Additionally, Thomson Reuters uses non-IFRS measures as the basis for management incentive programs. These measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures used by other companies and should not be viewed as alternatives to measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS. Non-IFRS financial measures are defined and reconciled to the most directly comparable IFRS measures in the appended tables.

The company's outlook contains various non-IFRS financial measures. The company believes that providing reconciliations of forward-looking non-IFRS financial measures in its outlook would be potentially misleading and not practical due to the difficulty of projecting items that are not reflective of ongoing operations in any future period. The magnitude of these items may be significant. Consequently, for purposes of its outlook only, the company is unable to reconcile these non-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures because it cannot predict, with reasonable certainty, the impacts of changes in foreign exchange rates which impact (i) the translation of its results reported at average foreign currency rates for the year, and (ii) other finance income or expense related to intercompany financing arrangements. Additionally, the company cannot reasonably predict the occurrence or amount of other operating gains and losses that generally arise from business transactions that the company does not currently anticipate.

ROUNDING

Other than EPS, the company reports its results in millions of U.S. dollars, but computes percentage changes and margins using whole dollars to be more precise. As a result, percentages and margins calculated from reported amounts may differ from those presented, and growth components may not total due to rounding.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS, MATERIAL RISKS AND MATERIAL ASSUMPTIONS

Certain statements in this news release, including, but not limited to, statements in Mr. Hasker's comments and the "2025 Outlook" section are forward-looking. The words "will", "expect", "believe", "target", "estimate", "could", "should", "intend", "predict", "project" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. While the company believes that it has a reasonable basis for making forward-looking statements in this news release, they are not a guarantee of future performance or outcomes and there is no assurance that any of the other events described in any forward-looking statement will materialize. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations. Many of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions are beyond the company's control and the effects of them can be difficult to predict.

Some of the material risk factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by forward-looking statements in this news release include, but are not limited to, those discussed on pages 16-27 in the "Risk Factors" section of the company's 2024 annual report. These and other risk factors are discussed in materials that Thomson Reuters from time-to-time files with, or furnishes to, the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Thomson Reuters' annual and quarterly reports are also available in the "Investor Relations" section of tr.com.

The company's business outlook is based on information currently available to the company and is based on various external and internal assumptions made by the company in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that the company believes are appropriate under the circumstances. Material assumptions and material risks may cause actual performance to differ from the company's expectations underlying its business outlook. In particular, the global economy has experienced substantial disruption due to concerns regarding economic effects associated with the macroeconomic backdrop and ongoing geopolitical risks. The company's business outlook assumes that uncertain macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions will continue to disrupt the economy and cause periods of volatility, however, these conditions may last substantially longer than expected and any worsening of the global economic or business environment could impact the company's ability to achieve its outlook and affect its results and other expectations. For a discussion of material assumptions and material risks related to the company's 2025 outlook see pages 16-17 of the company's first-quarter management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) for the period ended March 31, 2025. The company's quarterly MD&A and annual report was filed with, or furnished to, the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the U.S. SEC and are also available in the "Investor Relations" section of tr.com.

The company has provided an outlook for the purpose of presenting information about current expectations for the period presented. This information may not be appropriate for other purposes. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements which reflect expectations only as of the date of this news release.

Except as may be required by applicable law, Thomson Reuters disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.

Non-IFRS Financial
Measures

Definition

Why Useful to the Company and Investors

Adjusted EBITDA and
the related margin

Represents earnings or losses from continuing operations before tax expense or benefit, net interest expense, other finance costs or income, depreciation, amortization of computer software and other identifiable intangible assets, Thomson Reuters share of post-tax earnings or losses in equity method investments, other operating gains and losses, certain asset impairment charges and fair value adjustments, including those related to acquired deferred revenue.

The related margin is adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of revenues. For purposes of this calculation, revenues are before fair value adjustments to acquired deferred revenue.

Provides a consistent basis to evaluate operating profitability and performance trends by excluding items that the company does not consider to be controllable activities for this purpose.

Also, represents a measure commonly reported and widely used by investors as a valuation metric, as well as to assess the company's ability to incur and service debt.

Adjusted earnings
and adjusted EPS

Net earnings or loss including dividends declared on preference shares but excluding the post-tax impacts of fair value adjustments, including those related to acquired deferred revenue, amortization of acquired intangible assets (attributable to other identifiable intangible assets and acquired computer software), other operating gains and losses, certain asset impairment charges, other finance costs or income, Thomson Reuters share of post-tax earnings or losses in equity method investments, discontinued operations and other items affecting comparability. Acquired intangible assets contribute to the generation of revenues from acquired companies, which are included in the company's computation of adjusted earnings.

The post-tax amount of each item is excluded from adjusted earnings based on the specific tax rules and tax rates associated with the nature and jurisdiction of each item.

Adjusted EPS is calculated from adjusted earnings using diluted weighted-average shares and does not represent actual earnings or loss per share attributable to shareholders.

Provides a more comparable basis to analyze earnings.

These measures are commonly used by shareholders to measure performance.

Effective tax rate on
adjusted earnings

Adjusted tax expense divided by pre-tax adjusted earnings. Adjusted tax expense is computed as income tax (benefit) expense plus or minus the income tax impacts of all items impacting adjusted earnings (as described above), and other tax items impacting comparability.

In interim periods, the company also makes an adjustment to reflect income taxes based on the estimated full-year effective tax rate. Earnings or losses for interim periods under IFRS reflect income taxes based on the estimated effective tax rates of each of the jurisdictions in which Thomson Reuters operates. The non-IFRS adjustment reallocates estimated full-year income taxes between interim periods but has no effect on full-year income taxes.

Provides a basis to analyze the effective tax rate associated with adjusted earnings.

The company's effective tax rate computed in accordance with IFRS may be more volatile by quarter because the geographical mix of pre-tax profits and losses in interim periods may be different from that for the full year. Therefore, the company believes that using the expected full-year effective tax rate provides more comparability among interim periods.

Free cash flow

Net cash provided by operating activities and other investing activities, less capital expenditures, payments of lease principal and dividends paid on the company's preference shares.

Helps assess the company's ability, over the long term, to create value for its shareholders as it represents cash available to repay debt, pay common dividends, fund share repurchases and acquisitions.

Changes before the
impact of foreign
currency or at
"constant currency"

The changes in revenues, adjusted EBITDA and the related margin, and adjusted EPS before currency (at constant currency or excluding the effects of currency) are determined by converting the current and equivalent prior period's local currency results using the same foreign currency exchange rate.

Provides better comparability of business trends from period to period.

Changes in revenues
computed on an
"organic" basis

Represent changes in revenues of the company's existing businesses at constant currency. The metric excludes the distortive impacts of acquisitions and dispositions from not owning the business in both comparable periods.

Provides further insight into the performance of the company's existing businesses by excluding distortive impacts and serves as a better measure of the company's ability to grow its business over the long term.

Accrued capital
expenditures as a
percentage of
revenues

Accrued capital expenditures divided by revenues, where accrued capital expenditures include amounts that remain unpaid at the end of the reporting period. For purposes of this calculation, revenues are before fair value adjustments to acquired deferred revenue.

Reflects the basis on which the company manages capital expenditures for internal budgeting purposes.

"Big 3" segments

The company's combined Legal Professionals, Corporates and Tax & Accounting Professionals segments. All measures reported for the "Big 3" segments are non-IFRS financial measures.

The "Big 3" segments comprised approximately 80% of revenues and represent the core of the company's business information service product offerings.

Net debt and
leverage ratio of net
debt to adjusted
EBITDA

Net debt is total indebtedness (excluding the associated unamortized transaction costs and premiums or discount) plus the currency related fair value of associated hedging instruments, and lease liabilities less cash and cash equivalents.

Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is net debt divided by adjusted EBITDA for the previous twelve-month period ending with the current fiscal quarter.

Provides a commonly used measure of a company's leverage and its ability to pay its debt. Given that the company hedges some of its debt to reduce risk, the company includes hedging instruments as it believes it provides a better measure of the total obligation associated with its outstanding debt. However, because the company intends to hold its debt and related hedges to maturity, the company does not consider the interest components of the associated fair value of hedges in its measurements. The company reduces gross indebtedness by cash and cash equivalents.

The company's non-IFRS measure is aligned with the calculation of its internal target and is more conservative than the maximum ratio allowed under the contractual covenants in its credit facility.

Please refer to reconciliations for the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures.

Tech-Aktien mit Crash-Tendenzen
Künstliche Intelligenz, Magnificent Seven, Tech-Euphorie – seit Monaten scheint an der Börse nur eine Richtung zu existieren: nach oben. Doch hinter den Rekordkursen lauert eine gefährliche Wahrheit. Die Bewertungen vieler Tech-Schwergewichte haben historische Extremniveaus erreicht. Shiller-KGV bei 39, Buffett-Indikator auf Allzeithoch – schon in der Dotcom-Ära war der Markt kaum teurer.

Hinzu kommen euphorische Anlegerstimmung, IPO-Hypes ohne Substanz, kreditfinanzierte Wertpapierkäufe in Rekordhöhe und charttechnische Warnsignale, die Erinnerungen an 2000 und 2021 wecken. Gleichzeitig drücken geopolitische Risiken, Trumps aggressive Zollpolitik und saisonale Börsenschwäche auf die Perspektiven.

Die Gefahr: Aus der schleichenden Korrektur könnte ein rasanter Crash werden – und der könnte vor allem überbewertete KI- und Chipwerte hart treffen.

In unserem kostenlosen Spezial-Report zeigen wir Ihnen, welche Tech-Aktien am stärksten gefährdet sind und wie Sie Ihr Depot vor dem Platzen der Blase schützen könnten.
