Highlights:

·	Revenue up 10% to £13.4m (Q3 FY25: £12.2m)
·	Continued momentum in own site performance, with revenue up 27% on the prior year
·	Gross margin of 66.0%, up from 64.7% in the prior year, driven by an improved intake margin

* Sosandar believes that current market expectations for the year ending 31 March 2026 are revenues of £43.6 million and profit before tax of £0.4 million.

The strong trading in H1 continued into the second half, delivering further revenue growth of 10% over Q3, to £13.4m (Q3 FY25: £12.2m). Central to this is the momentum in Sosandar's own site, the cornerstone of our brand, delivering a revenue increase of 27% on the prior year.  

This performance has been driven by higher site traffic, improved conversion rates and increased order volumes from new and existing customers, all of which speak to the success of Sosandar's product range and marketing strategy. Gross margin also continues to strengthen. Overall trading remains in line with market expectations for the current financial year.

Ali Hall and Julie Lavington, Joint-CEOs of Sosandar plc, commented: "We're pleased to see the positive momentum has continued into the second half of the financial year, with continued revenue growth and improved margins. The foundations have been laid for sustained profitable and cash-generative growth and we are excited for what 2026 will bring."
