TruFin PLC on Thursday said revenue and profit for the first half of 2025 surged on strong performance at its Playstack games publishing unit, and it now expects to ‘materially exceed’ market expectations for the full year. TruFin is a London-based holding company of three growth-focused technology businesses operating in early payment provision, invoice finance and mobile games publishing. The group said revenue for the six months to June 30 is expected to be around £35.5 million, up more than 40% from £25.3 million a year earlier. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation are seen at more than £6.7 million, a rise from £2.9 million, while adjusted pretax profit is expected to exceed £4.7 million, compared with £600,000 a year before. The second half started strongly, helped by the July launch of Abiotic Factor at Playstack. TruFin said Playstack’s hit ratio - the percentage of games generating a positive return on external development costs - ‘remains outstanding’. With a growing back catalogue, strong return on invested capital, and a promising secured games pipeline, TruFin said Playstack is well-positioned for the rest of 2025 and beyond. Full interim results are due in September. Shares in TruFin rose 18% to 116.88 pence in London on Thursday afternoon. Copyright 2025 Alliance News Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
