Education giant to cut payout to shareholders as woes continue despite sale of Financial Times and Economist stake
Pearson shares plummeted almost 25% after the beleaguered company issued profit warnings for the next two years, said it would cut the payout to shareholders and put its 47% stake in Penguin Random House up for sale.
The share price plunge wiped more than £1.5bn from FTSE 100 giant’s market value as it said its US education business suffered a 30% slump in revenues in the final quarter of the year.
