Consultant Cyril Sweett has reported a 7% rise in profit in the first set of accounts to be published since it announced that it intended to float on the alternative investment market (AIM).
Profit for the year ended 31 March was 拢4.5m, up from 拢4.2m the previous year. Turnover rose 16% to 拢52m over the same period.
The UK accounted for 拢47m of the firm鈥檚 turnover. The Republic of Ireland produced 拢3.4m, France 拢605,000 and the rest of the EU 拢207,000.

Cyril Sweett鈥檚 management revealed in May that it was considering a flotation on AIM after a strategic business review by Close Brothers. This was approved by shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting in June.
The firm is expected to launch the flotation in the autumn, which will make it the only standalone QS on the stock market.
