Howes Percival may be in growth mode, with employment and banking hires in its East Midlands profit centre (East Anglia is a separate profit pool), but turnover remained static at £18.8m.

The culprit was the remortgage team. Though consistently profitable, with the bottom falling out of the market revenue fell from £3.8m to £2.8m.

The other core groups all increased turnover. Average profit also rose, breaking an even more psychologically important gateway in the meritbased partnership, that of £300,000.
