Pharmaceuticals and services business Clinigen said Wednesday that Peter George, its Chief Executive Officer, has sold a further 0.5m shares in addition to the 2.8m disposed of on Monday. The shares, which were all sold for 410p each, were part of the 8.7m placed with a number of directors on Monday. George pocketed £2.050m from the most recent sale, and £11.6m from Monday's disposal. The placing follows last week's full year results, which revealed a 49% jump in group revenue to £122.6m (FY12: £82.1m), which the firm said was driven by strong organic growth across all three operational businesses.Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) climbed 30% to £22.4m (FY12: £17.3m), while underlying pre-tax profit increased by 29% to £20.4m (FY12: £15.8m) and reported pre-tax profits increased by 42% to £14.5m (FY12: £10.3m).
