LONDON--Pearson PLC (PSO) reported a wider full-year net loss Friday as it suffers from declines in the U.K. and U.S. education markets.

The educational publishing ccompany reported a net loss of 2.56 billion pounds ($3.19 billion) for calendar year 2016, compared with a GBP433 million loss in 2015. Revenue rose to GBP4.55 billion from GBP4.47 billion, but fell 8% in underlying terms.

The final dividend was maintained at 34 pence, but Pearson said it planned to cut its dividend in 2017, in line with comments it made in January when it warned of the weak performance in 2016.

"We will continue to accelerate our digital transformation, simplify our portfolio, control our costs and focus our investment on the biggest growth opportunities in education," Chief Executive John Fallon said.
