A year ago, the Mercia 27 strategy was announced, which prioritised scaling the highly profitable fund management business and targeted EBITDA of c£10m by FY27 (£5.5m in FY24). Mercia is flying along. FY25 (to 31 Mar 25) has seen FUM (funds managed for 3rd parties) increase 10% y-o-y to £1.80bn (+46% over 2 years) and EBITDA jump 37% from £5.5m to £7.6m. Its net inflow rate has been the highest among London-listed peers for two years (page 4).
