Published some time ago (June) but for those that are interested:

Complete annual results should be released in the next few weeks (late Nov/early Dec).

Snippets from the report:
  • "... The gross margin on contract placements increased slightly to 20.8% (2006: 20.6%)"
  • "... The number of active contractors at the half-year end increased by 14.7% to 4,974, and we also saw a year-on-year increase in average gross profit per day rates of 19.3% to £71.24"

So if I get my sums right (unlikely, but here goes...) the typical S3 contractor costs the client about £342.50 and he/she receives about £271.26.

And, assuming the numbers are correct, S3 are grossing about £354,348 per day from their contractors.

Good money if you can get it...
