Knights Group, a United Kingdom‑based legal services firm, announced that its underlying revenue increased by 28% in fiscal year 2026. The company attributed this rise to a combination of organic expansion—through selective hiring of experienced professionals, entry into new specialisms and geographic markets—and strategic acquisitions, notably in the South East of England and in Cardiff, which added to both revenue and the firm’s talent pool.
Underlying diluted earnings per share grew 19% year‑over‑year, reaching £0.27, while the total dividend declared for the year was raised by 17% compared with the prior period. The firm highlighted continued investment in technology and artificial intelligence, noting that these initiatives have increased operating costs but are intended to boost efficiency and support future growth.
Management indicated that the renewed and extended revolving credit facility provides the necessary flexibility to pursue its growth strategy, encompassing further organic expansion and value‑enhancing acquisitions during the current year. The company expects the momentum from both organic initiatives and acquisitions to continue, leveraging its strengthened capability to capture opportunities within the UK legal sector.
