The score was 60 in the stored Oct 4, 2026 snapshot and remains 60 in the current publication computed Oct 5, 2026 (0); the largest pillar moves were Growth Durability +4 and Momentum -1; the pillar moves offset under the sector-relative weighting, so the headline score is unchanged. This current publication is not yet represented in the immutable snapshot archive.
Calculation uses the most recent completed US trading session. Live price changes do not update the score immediately.

What are the financial strengths and risks for WPP (WPP)?
Short answer
The MoonshotScore pillars rate an attractive price, positive momentum as strengths. The distress and quality screens read Altman Z 1.54 · Piotroski F 6. Trailing ratios: ROE -9.3% · ROA -1.0% · current ratio 0.87 · earnings yield -5.9% · free-cash-flow yield 25.2%.
Data-derived red flags
- Financial-distress signal — its Altman Z-Score of 1.54 sits in the distress zone (elevated bankruptcy risk).
- Negative return on equity (-9.3%) — the business is not currently generating profit on shareholder capital.
What should you watch next at WPP (WPP)?
Short answer · as of
The next earnings report is expected on Feb 25, 2027.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Watch client spending patterns in the next economic downturn—agencies are early casualties of cost-cutting. Monitor whether acquisition integration delivers promised synergies or requires write-downs. Debt covenant pressure could force asset sales or equity dilution.
What management is planning
Management expectations, not completed milestones or guarantees. Selected verbatim excerpts; dates follow the transcript provider.
And finally, you'll see the improving trajectory in organic top line growth, margin expansion and improved financial leverage that we anticipate in 2027.

How does WPP compare with its peers?
Short answer
WPP's score ranks 10th of 13 in the bounded comparison shown, against 12 same-model peers. These are company scores, not expected investment returns. The set lists named competitors first, then companies in the same data-provider industry classification closest in market value; that classification is the provider's, not our judgment of business similarity.
Research dated 2026-09-13.
Against specialized agency networks, WPP's scale is an asset but so is its complexity. Against management consulting firms, it lacks strategic depth. Against tech-enabled alternatives, it carries legacy cost. The diversified holding model is defensive but not growth-oriented.

What Investors Ask About WPP (WPP) — Communication Services
Research dated 2026-09-13; the answers below are from that research, and the full attribution is under Sources. The last 2 questions are answered from this page's own dated data, not from the research.
Are in-house marketing teams replacing agencies like WPP?
Yes, partially. Large clients increasingly build internal creative and media talent, reducing outsourcing needs. WPP has responded by selling strategy and transformation services, not just execution—but high fixed costs make the shift difficult.
What is the WPP stock price today?
The last price recorded on this page for WPP plc (WPP) is $24.67, as of the Oct 2, 2026 trading session (source: Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) · quote). It is a provider snapshot, not a live exchange feed, so check a brokerage quote before you trade.
Does WPP pay a dividend?
Yes. WPP plc (WPP) shows a trailing 12-month dividend yield of 4.06%, as of Oct 2, 2026, in the data on this page. Payout ratio and cash-flow coverage decide whether it can last, and past dividends do not guarantee future payments.

Sources — records for every figure on this page (53 figures)
The 53 rows below are exactly the facts the evidence-backed sections of this page printed — the 10-second verdict, the MoonshotScore, price and market value, the five questions with their receipts, and the records behind this page. Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured. No number in those sections was generated by a model. The register does not cover quoted third-party headlines, the dated council readings, or the Frequently Asked Questions; each of those says where it came from where it stands.
"As of" is the date the value is true for where the source carries one — a quarter end, a filing date, a price close, the day the score was computed. A cached observation with no source date remains undated; the page publication date is not used as a substitute.
