The Mission Group (AIM:TMG), a collective of Creative, Sports and Marketing Tech agencies, said in its AGM trading update that trading for the period 1 January to 15 June remains in line with the board's expectations.
The company said this performance comes against wider macroeconomic uncertainty and has been driven by continued strong client retention, new client wins and the benefits of strategic actions taken earlier in the year to simplify and strengthen the operating platform.
New client wins came across the Group's five practice areas, Integrated Marketing, Sports & Events, Property, PR and Healthcare, and included Westminster Council, Puma, Amaala Yacht Club, PwC, the International Tennis Federation and Volleyball World.
Management reported continued progress against the strategic priorities set out at the full year results in March, including US expansion execution with an expanding pipeline in the US for the Mongoose Sports & Events practice, agency integration, the consultancy offer launch, growth engine activation, capital allocation discipline and the appointment of Wayne Deakin as Chief Creative Officer at Bray Leino.
A further trading update will be provided in its usual half‑year update in July.
