IWG Slides More Than 11% on Cashflow Warning; Heathrow Knocked Off Top European Spot by Istanbul
August 11, 2026, 4:52 AM EDT. International Workplace Group (IWG) shares dropped more than 11% after Jefferies analysts pointed to cashflow issues, even as revenue climbed 11% to a record $2.4 billion. Adjusted core profit ticked up 1% to $265 million for the first half. IWG kept its 2026 profit target at $585 million-$625 million. Cash flow before corporate costs came in at minus $55 million. On the travel front, Heathrow Airport, which has led Europe since 1996, moved 7.86 million passengers in July, falling behind Istanbul’s 8.15 million. Middle East route weakness, hit by US-Israel-Iran strains, weighed on Heathrow. The airport wants government sign-off for a third runway, targeting capacity for 150 million passengers a year as it looks to compete and drive growth.
