Clarkson added that its first-half performance had been "strong" across all divisions, with its broking unit performing "particularly well".
Looking forward, the FTSE 250-listed firm stated that while it was "mindful of macroeconomic conditions", the board remains confident in its outlook and expects full-year results to be "materially ahead" of previous expectations.
Clarkson will publish its interim results on 8 August.
