ASOS has reported a drop in revenue in its latest annual results, but the online fashion retailer narrowed its losses as its turnaround plan continues to take effect.聽
The group鈥檚 revenue dropped from 拢2.9 billion last year to 拢2.5bn this year, with customers also falling from 19.7 million to 17m.
However, operating performance moved the right way, with the London-based firm posting an operating loss of 拢212m, a significant improvement on last year鈥檚 拢332m.
Adjusted EBITDA also rose by 拢52m compared to last year to 拢132m.聽
Management pointed to progress on cost control and a more disciplined approach to buying and discounting, alongside early momentum from the relaunch of Topshop and Topman.
It has said its operating model is becoming leaner and more resilient, giving it room to reinvest in product, brand and customer experience into FY26.
The results also mark a leadership handover at board level, with J酶rgen Lindemann stepping down to be replaced by former Google and Amazon CFO Natasja Laheij.
