Shepherd & Wedderburn's figures improved
on last year, but the firm claimed it was unfortunate
in that a number of its biggest deals, notably
the flotation of ProStrakan Group and Scottish-
Power's £96m sale by ScottishPower Energy, completed
early in the current financial year. Accounting
quibbles apart, turnover still managed an 8.5 per
cent rise to £31.5m, while average PEP was up to
£225,000.
The figures are more impressive when the investment
the firm has made in Aberdeen and London
is taken into account. London corporate finance
particularly has done well, handling 19 of the 33
flotations and secondary issues the firm has advised
on since April 2004.
