Simon McGivern, CEO of Oberon Investments Group, commented: "The results for last year, and in particular the start we have made to the current financial year, continue to exceed our own high expectations. The Oberon platform, with its complementary revenue streams and teams of talented professionals, keeps delivering outstanding returns for our clients.
"Future acquisition opportunities, some potentially transformational, continue to be analysed and negotiated. However, given the base we have now built, we will only consider future deals that complement Oberon's ambitions and integrate into what we are building.
"Year one of Oberon's journey has now been successfully completed; the future destination looks very bright indeed."
