(Sharecast News) - Analysts at Berenberg lowered their target price on advertising firm Next Fifteen from 790.0p to 660.0p on Tuesday, citing a "cautious outlook".

Berenberg said Next Fifteen's FY25 results showed that group net revenue was down 1% year-on-year at 569.7m, while adjusted underlying earnings came to 107.5m, both of which were in line with consensus. Adjusted EPS was 69.3p, 3% below consensus.

The German bank also stated that Next Fifteen's balance sheet remained "robust", with net debt of 38.4m, and pointed out that the shares were trading on a FY26 price-to-earnings ratio of 5x.
