FRP Advisory Group PLC on Friday said it expects to report annual earnings growth, and it is ‘well placed’ looking ahead. The London-based business advisor, including insolvency and corporate finance said adjusted underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation are expected to have amounted to £45 million in the year ended April 30, up from £41.3 million. Revenue growth of 16% to £176 million from £152.2 million is predicted. It said the results ‘are at least in line with market consensus’. ‘FRP’s strong performance reflects the breadth and resilience of the group in a year that had periods of decision inertia for UK corporates due to uncertainty, including US Tariff changes at the start of the year and speculation ahead of the delayed autumn 2025 budget,’ FRP said. ‘FY 2026 ended with the Middle East conflict impacting energy costs and beginning to affect supply chains. This is expected to add upward pressure on headline inflation and complicate central bank rate-cut paths, and the group has already seen an increase in demand for Debt Advisory services and Restructuring Advisory services.’ FRP said it expects to propose a final dividend, ‘in line with its stated dividend policy’. Chief Executive Officer Geoff Rowley said: ‘This year, we further strengthened our model through a combination of targeted acquisition activity and investment in talent, geographic reach and service capabilities. Whilst the global and UK economies continue to be impacted by uncertainty, FRP remains well placed to continue to serve its clients across the entire economic cycle. The short and medium-term outlook for our markets remains positive and we have sufficient resource flexibility to respond to an increase in demand and a strong balance sheet to capitalise on investment opportunities when they arise. The board is therefore confident of further growth and progress in the new financial year.’ Shares in the company rose 0.9% to 113.99 pence each in London on Friday morning.
