LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - Andrew Hogarth, non-executive director of recruitment firm Staffline Group, cashed in more than 1m ordinary shares on his way out the door Wednesday, pocketing a total of £10.26m in the process.
In total, Hogarth, Staffline's outgoing chief executive, disposed of 1,006,189 shares with a price tag of 1,020.00p attached to each one.

In its preliminary results posted on 24 January, Staffline reported an 8.5% increase in revenue to £957.8m but saw underlying earnings drop 1.1% to £36.3m.

Of the results, Hogarth said last week: "These strong results are testament to the hard work and determination of all those involved in our business. In what has remained a competitive environment, we are delighted to report such strong organic revenue growth and the increased statutory profit before tax. Underlying profit before tax was marginally below 2016 levels."
