Future plc has unveiled a boardroom reshuffle alongside full-year results that show the specialist media group’s revenue and EBITDA dropping slightly.
The FTSE-listed owner of titles spanning tech, gaming, homes and lifestyle said chair Richard Huntingford will step down after the annual general meeting in February 2026, ending an eight-year stint leading the board.
He will be replaced by Mark Brooker, currently a senior independent non-executive director, who has more than three decades of experience across capital markets and platform businesses, with senior executive roles at Betfair and Trainline, and has sat on Future’s board since October 2020.
The announcements were made as the London-based company published its annual results.
Revenue fell 6% year-on-year to £739.2 million, while adjusted EBITDA slipped 7% to £223.4m and adjusted operating profit dropped 8% to £205.4m.
Operating profit fell 9% to £121.9m and profit before tax slipped 11% to £91.9m.
