Sam Smith, CEO commented:
"The Group continued to perform strongly in March, surpassing our expectations. We acted on secondary equity issues raising a total of £66m, completed the £83.8m IPO of Parsley Box PLC, advised on several private M&A transactions including the sale of David Rubin & Partners, and secured £52m of debt funding for Rockpool Investments' acquisition of Cambridge Maintenance Services.
This performance is testament to the platform that we have built to service the strategic and financial needs of ambitious growing companies and their management teams. Our pipeline for Q1 is healthy and I look forward to announcing our full year results in July."
