Total revenue growth was 8%. B2B organic revenue growth was 11%. Financial Services performed strongly, with growth driven by our Ascend analytics solutions, fraud prevention products, mortgage, and stable underlying client activity. Within Verticals, Automotive maintained good momentum, led by AutoCheck, which benefited from recent consumer marketplace wins, alongside continued growth in credit solutions. Health also performed well, driven by ongoing adoption of Patient Access Curator, our artificial intelligence (AI)-powered registration platform, and strong demand for our claims management products. Consumer Services organic revenue declined (2)%, as anticipated, following the initial wind down last quarter of two long-term mass data breach support contracts. Excluding data breach services, Consumer Services delivered 3% organic growth. Within Marketplace, growth was led by strong performance in personal loans and insurance. Credit card activity remained subdued, reflecting continued caution among certain lenders, broadly consistent with the trends observed last quarter. Subscription growth benefited from higher enrolments, supported by ongoing enhancements to the user experience, including the recent launch of earned wage access capabilities and a high-yield savings account offering. **Latin America – 15% of Group revenue****^(4)** Latin America delivered organic revenue growth of 12%, with total constant currency revenue growth also at 12%. B2B organic revenue growth was 9%, reflecting continued commercial and product momentum. In Brazil, we delivered strong growth, driven by new business wins and continued expansion across major Brazilian banks and telecommunications providers. Fraud prevention continued to perform very well, supported by our differentiated data assets and technology capabilities. On 1 July, we closed the acquisition of idwall, a specialist in digital identity management in Brazil, which will further strengthen our fraud capabilities in the market. In Spanish Latin America, Colombia, Peru and Panama all contributed to growth, supported by healthy underlying client activity. Consumer Services delivered strong organic revenue growth of 22%, driven by continued momentum across the portfolio. In Brazil, Limpa Nome performed very well, supported by higher volumes and expanded distribution through key partners. Our credit marketplace also grew strongly, benefiting from new partner additions and growth in payroll lending. **UK and Ireland – 11% of Group revenue****^(4)** The UK and Ireland delivered organic revenue growth of 5%. Total constant currency revenue growth of 7% was primarily due to the contribution from the acquisition of KYC360. B2B organic revenue growth was 5%. While UK economic activity remained subdued, growth accelerated relative to the prior year and we continued to make good strategic progress. Growth was supported by recent new business wins, with revenue from the Ascend Platform continuing to increase. Organic revenue growth in Consumer Services was 7%. Marketplace grew well, supported by higher consumer engagement following the launch of our new 1250 credit score. Subscriptions benefited from continued product enhancements, with particularly strong growth in our identity-focused offering. **EMEA and Asia Pacific – 7% of Group revenue****^(4)** In EMEA and Asia Pacific, organic revenue growth was 1%, with total constant currency revenue growth also at 1%. We delivered good growth across a number of key markets, and while growth was impacted by a strong prior-year comparison from several large software deliveries, we continued to advance key initiatives. Our proprietary scores and the Ascend Platform are gaining traction across the region, supporting future growth opportunities. **Future events** Experian will release results for the half year ending 30 September 2026 on Wednesday, 18 November 2026.
