Pearson plc (PSON.L, PSO) said, for 2012, the Group expects to report good revenue growth at constant exchange rates, operating profit of approximately 935 million pounds, adjusted earnings of approximately 84 pence per share. Pearson's 2012 results will reflect the absence of a profit contribution from FTSE International and the impact of the radically-changed trading environment for Pearson in Practice, which led to the recent decision to plan to exit that business.
Pearson said its market conditions remained weak, as expected, in the fourth-quarter selling season for higher education, consumer publishing and corporate advertising.
