NIQ Global Intelligence plc (NIQ)
Our Mission We provide brands, retailers and other clients a holistic view of consumer shopping behavior globally to drive mission-critical strategic and operating decisions and facilitate better economic outcomes. We are a leading global consumer intelligence company positioned at the nexus of brands, retailers and consumers. We manage a comprehensive and integrated ecosystem – The NIQ Ecosystem – which combines proprietary data, best-in-class technology, human intelligence, and highly sophisticated software applications and analytics solutions. Our unified, artificial intelligence and machine learning (“AI”)-powered technology platform aggregates, harmonizes and enriches vast amounts of global consumer shopping data from a myriad of diverse sources, generates rich, proprietary reference data and metadata, and provides a global, omnichannel view of consumer shopping behavior – The Full View. Our global reach spans over 90 countries covering approximately 85% of the world’s population, more than half the world’s gross domestic product (“GDP”) and more than $7.2 trillion in global consumer spend as of December 31, 2024. Leveraging our strong NIQ brand, long-term client relationships, global scale, proprietary technology, and extensive data and insights, we are positioned as a global leader in measuring, analyzing, and predicting consumer behavior in the fast-moving consumer goods (“FMCG”), tech and durables (“T&D”) and other verticals in which we operate. --- Our solutions, mission-critical insights, analytics and software applications are deeply embedded across our clients’ enterprise and power their core strategic and operating decisions, including: • Measuring and assessing sales performance; • Optimizing pricing and promotion strategies; • Maintaining and strengthening their market positions; • Segmenting and personalizing consumer products; • Driving innovation and profitable growth; • Managing trade and advertising budgets; and • Guiding executives and Boards on incentive compensation, competitive analysis and M&A strategy. Our diverse client base of approximately 23,000 companies spans industries and geographies. We work with many of the world’s largest consumer brands and retailers – including approximately half of the Fortune 500 and nearly 80% of the Fortune 100 companies – as well as clients in high-growth verticals and small and medium-sized business (“SMB”). Our clients include both established brands, such as Coca-Cola, Nestlé, Samsung and Sony, as well as emerging brands, such as Malk, Great Lakes Brewing, SharkNinja and Serenity Kids. We collaborate with top U.S. retailer clients, such as Target and Walmart, as well as international retailers, such as ALDI and LIDL. In addition to growing within our core FMCG, T&D and retailer verticals, during the past several years, we have expanded into several adjacent verticals including, but not limited to, financial services, government, media and advertising. Also, NIQ’s deep integration within clients’ operational workflows has enabled us to foster long-term relationships. For example, as of December 31, 2024, partnerships with our top five longest-tenured clients averaged more than 70 years in duration. Our ability to retain clients underpins our predictable and scalable revenue model, which was approximately 80% recurring in nature in fiscal year 2024. Our visibility into, and the predictability of, our revenue streams is driven by long-term subscription contracts within our Intelligence offerings, as well as high client adoption rates of our on-demand Analytics offerings, which are our bespoke analyses tailored to clients’ specific business objectives. Our scalable, “build once, deploy everywhere” business model and unified AI-powered technology platform allow us to rapidly deploy and scale our products and services, lower our cost to serve clients and grow revenue at increasing margins. --- Our principal executive offices are located at 200 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60606, and our telephone number at that location is 312-583-5100.
