Employee-owned software company marks milestone
A Bristol-founded finance software company has marked major turnover returns since becoming an employee-owned company.
The software firm Symmetry has reported a strong set of results in its first year as an employee-owned business, achieving turnover of nearly £3m and profits of £449,000 for 2025/26.
The company, which operates the bluQube cloud-based accountancy platform, recorded turnover of £2.995m, supported by strong customer retention, recurring subscription revenues and continued demand from both existing and new clients.
The company said performance exceeded expectations while allowing continued investment in cloud infrastructure and management capability to support future growth.
Additional revenue was also generated through implementation services linked to new customer wins.
Chief executive and founder Simon Kearsley said the results reflected the “strength of the business model”.
He added: We have also continued to invest in the business, particularly in our cloud infrastructure and management capability, which puts us in a strong position for the future.
“Employee ownership has reinforced the sense of shared responsibility across the company, and that has been reflected in the way the team has delivered for customers throughout the year.”
Looking ahead, Symmetry expects growth to be driven by winning new business and expanding recurring revenues, supported by a strong sales pipeline and ongoing investment in products and services.
