2021 has been an excellent year for the Group. Revenue increased by 6% up to £3,213m, while adjusted operating profit increased 92% to £131.3m. Operating margin increased to 4.1%, up 180bps. Our strong performance was the result in part of our relentless focus over many years on disciplined contract selectivity, risk management, operational delivery, long-term customer relationships and improved quality of earnings. This focus will continue and is the bedrock which underpins our future performance.
