Nugent highlighted 45 editorial awards as a testament to quality-driven content and positioned AI as a significant opportunity for enhancing operations and audience experience. He expressed optimism about the fall launch of the Informa TechTarget Portal and reaffirmed confidence in delivering $45 million in synergies by year 3.
Gary Nugent reaffirmed 2025 guidance for broadly flat revenue and improved adjusted EBITDA margins exceeding $85 million.

Nugent attributed confidence to strong bookings momentum and improved operational visibility, noting no assumptions of market recovery. The CEO emphasized deleveraging and cash build-up as balance sheet priorities in the second half.
