Photonics company Gooch & Housego (GHH) had a better second half, but full year profit was still lower. In the year to September 2024, revenues were 1% ahead at £136m. A decline in industrial revenues, due to weak product sales for semiconductor manufacturing and other industrial uses, was offset by higher aerospace and defence and life sciences revenues. Underlying pre-tax profit slipped 22% to £8.1m. The total dividend was raised 1.5% to 13.2p, which is 1.9 times covered by earnings.

Technology company adviser and investor EMV Capital (EMVC) raised £1.5m at 50p/share, which was a 15% premium to the previous day’s closing price.

Condor Gold (CNR), which is developing the La India gold project in Nicaragua, says that Metals Exploration (MTL) and Calibre Mining Corp have made bid approaches and negotiations are at an advanced stage with Metals Exploration.

The company will still have operations in New Zealand and a subsidiary involved in the distribution of Starlink, plus a 2.8% stake in Quickline. Revenues are forecast to be £1m in 2024-25.

Bars and leisure operator XP Factory (XPF) continues to grow both of its brands.

Boom Battle Bars revenues were 56% higher and more of the franchise outlets are being acquired. Group like-for-like revenues were 4% higher. There was a small underlying pre-tax profit before contract termination and other exceptional costs. Net debt was £1.3m at the end of September 2024. Medium-term targets have been set. The plan is to increase sales by 50% and double underlying EBITDA by March 2028. That means a revenue target of £90m with a March 2028 run-rate of £100m and EBITDA margins of 15%.

Construction disputes and property services provider Diales (DIAL), formerly Driver Group, has completed its rebranding and the benefits of cost cutting will show through in the current year. Interim revenues edged up from £42.6m to £43m. A decline in European and North American revenues was offset by growth in the other markets. The Middle East returned to profit and the Asia Pacific loss was lower. Overall pre-tax profit improved from £1.1m to £1.2m. The total dividend is maintained at 1.5p/share, although it is still not covered by earnings. The net cash of £4.3m (7.9p/share) enables Diales to add more fee earners, which might come from small acquisitions that may add to the range of services and sectors that can be addressed.

SRT Marine (SRT) reported revenues of £14.8m in the 15 months to June 2024. The loss was £13.8m. Transceivers generated most of the revenues with the major systems contracts with international coastguards potentially starting in the next few months, hopefully at last one of them by the end of 2024. New finance has been obtained since the end of the period.

Floorcoverings distributor Likewise (LIKE) in contrast with some companies had a strong October and November when sales were 11% ahead.

Investment company Seed Innovations (SEED) says MAV was £10.6m at the end of September 2024, including £3.52m in cash. That is 5.5p/share. This NAV is after the £2m cash distribution to shareholders.

The company sold the shares, adding £101,000 to NAV.

AQUIS STOCK EXCHANGE

Digital assets investor KR1 (KR1) reported interim revenues from those digital assets improving from £3.91m to £8.72m, although lower gains on disposals of assets meant that the pre-tax profit edged up from £10m to £10.3m. There was £1.5m in cash in the balance sheet at the end of June 2024. NAV was 82.01p/share at the end of June 2024 and this has fallen back to 71.92p/share at the end of July 2024.

AIM

Steel structures supplier Billington (BILN) was always going to have a tough time maintaining the 2023 figures and interim revenues fell 4% to £57.9m. Pre-tax profit was flat at £4.6m, although building safety products made a higher contribution offsetting a decline in structural steel. Net cash is still £21.9m even after the 33p/share dividend. The second half will not hold up as well. Cavendish has upgraded its 2024 forecast for the second time in six months. Pre-tax profit has been raised from £8.5m to £9.25m, still well down on the 2023 figure of £13.4m.

In the year to June 2024, revenues were 11% ahead at £47.7m, while pre-tax profit improved from £4.5m to £6.1m. Net cash is £9.1m and it will continue to build up. The five-year target is revenues of £100m.

Judges Scientific (JDG) had a tough first half. Organic revenues were 3% lower with China the weakest market. The international nature of the business helps to offset some of the downturns in specific markets. Pre-tax profit fell 16% to £10.8m. The order book covers 17 weeks of revenues. Panmure Liberum expects a dip in full year pre-tax profit from £31.7m to £30.7m. The recently announced Geotek contract will benefit the 2025 results.

Good Energy (GOOD) continues its transformation into an energy services business, but the real change will not be seen until next year when they start to make a positive contribution. The reduction in energy prices hit revenues of the supply business and profitability. The first half of the previous year was a beneficiary of high gas prices, so it is no surprise that revenues declined sharply from £156.1m to £97.4m. Pre-tax profit slumped from £13.1m to £4.4m.

There is a better outlook for kettle controls and water filtration products supplier Strix (KETL) following significant restructuring and cost cutting in the first half.

There were improved profit contributions from all three divisions. There is no interim dividend. Net debt has fallen to £68.8m.

Packaging equipment and automation provider Mpac Group (MPAC) is acquiring BCA Automation for £12.9m in cash and shares. The acquired business focuses on robotics and conveyor systems for food and other sectors, so it fits well with the existing business. The Boston-based business focuses on the packaging area, whereas Mpac is focused on earlier stages of production.

Ceramic and fragrance products supplier Portmeirion (PMP) had flagged the interim figures. Revenues fell 17% and there was a loss of £2m. Costs are being lowered and this has enabled full year estimates to be maintained with pre-tax profit expected to recover from £3m to £4.2m. This will come via cost savings and additional revenues. The dividend is being rebalanced from 3.5p/share to 1.5p/share, but the total dividend for 2024 should be higher than last year’s 5.5p/share.

There was yet another upgrade for Warpaint London (W7L) from Shore Capital following the interim figures today. There was strong growth in Europe and the UK. North America grew slightly but the focus is higher margin business. Gross margins continue to improve.

Phoenix Copper (PXC) has published the pre-feasibility study for the Empire open pit mine in Idaho. Discounted NPV at 7.5% discount is $87.9m and total cash costs are estimated at $2.44/copper equivalent pound. Over eight years the mine could generate net free cashflow of $153m. Further exploration planning is happening, and equipment is being purchased for the processing site.

Global Petroleum (GBP) has risen on the back of yesterday’s application two additional licences near to an existing Juno licence in Western Australia, where it increased its stake from 70% to 80%. This is near the Havieron project. Precious and base metals targets have been identified that have similar characteristics to the existing licence. The company has appointed Omar Alumad, who it says has a record of identifying early opportunities, as chief executive and Hamza Choudhry as finance director.

Software training services provider Northcoders (CODE) reported a 26% increase in interim revenues to £4.4m. Registrations for courses were at record levels. There was a small interim pre-tax profit. Net cash is £700,000. The corporate business has been rebranded Counter. Investment in the cloud and data analytics means that there will be continued demand for Northcoders’ training and services.

Digital media company Catenai (CTAI) reduced its loss from £196,000 to £13,000 in the six months to June 2024. That is down to the fees earned for the £450,000 convertible loan note investment in oil and gas-focused data analytics company Klarian and reduced costs. Catenai has also moved from net liabilities to net assets. The cash position has improved to £31,500.

Africa-focused energy company Chariot Ltd (CHAR) has completed the drilling of the Anchois-3 main hole. It encountered gas, but gas pays are thinner than pre-drill estimates. The well will be abandoned. The next step for the project is being discussed with joint venture partners.

Rockfire Resources (ROCK) raised £450,000 at 0.1p/share to continue the development of Molaoi zinc silver lead project in Greece.

Brewer Adnams (ADB) expects to conclude its evaluation of future funding later in the summer.

Pubs and bars operator Nightcap (NGHT) has decided to cancel the AIM quotation because of the weak share price and the difficulty to raise additional funds. Trading is challenging and this is expected to continue for the rest of the year. EBITDA for the year to June 2024 is below expectations.

The quotation is likely to be cancelled on 29 July. A matched bargain facility will be provided by Asset Match.

Renewables investment company I(X) Net Zero (IX.) also plans to cancel its AIM quotation. The share price has slumped since joining AIM, partly because of the timing.

Cash is flowing out of the company and more funds are likely to be required. There were $81.1m of unrealised gains in 2023, mainly due to a rise in valuation for WasteFuel after an investment by BP.

Manufacturing revenues are flat. Singers has downgraded its 2024-25 pre-tax profit forecast from £12m to £7.8m, which is not much higher than the figure for 2020-21. Net cash could fall to £10m.

Duke Capital (DUKE) says some investee companies have not been paying the expected amounts to the company. This has led to a decline in valuations of investments in the balance sheet. This is particularly the consumer-related investments. Total cash revenues were £30.3m in the year to March 2024, helped by three exits from investments. However, the fourth quarter recurring cash revenues fell to £5.8m, from £6.3m in the previous quarter. NAV is 39.8p/share.

Cosmetics supplier Warpaint London (W7L) expects interim revenues to be £46m, up 26%. First quarter revenues were 28% higher. There is a second half weighting to trading and new customers have been added. Freight costs are rising.

Nasdaq has sent two written notices to Renalytix (RENX) because the ADS price has fallen below $1 for at least 30 consecutive days. It is also below the minimum market valuation of $50m. Renalytix will appeal the determination that trading in the ADSs will be suspended on 2 July and they will subsequently be kicked off Nasdaq. Management will present a plan to become compliant again.

R and Q Insurance Holdings (RQIH) has sold Accredited to Onex Partners for $420m. Prior to that Inceptum was sold for £11.25m. Teneo has been appointed as provisional liquidator of R and Q.

Live Company Group (LVCG) is continuing discussions with a cornerstone investor to provide cash required because of the shortfall at the Brick Live division. A KPOP event in Germany is being promoted alongside the cornerstone investor. The 2023 accounts will not be published by the end of June, so trading in the shares will be suspended 1 July.

Secure payments technology developer PCI-Pal (PCIP) has settled all its patent litigation with Sycurio in the UK and US. The settlement is confidential.

MAIN MARKET

Kitchenware retailer ProCook Group (PROC) has returned to profit. In the year to March 2024, revenues were flat at £62.6m, while a loss of £200,000 was turned into a pre-tax profit of £1m.

Marula Mining is also about to start supplying columbite-tantalite and feldspar from the Blesberg mine in South Africa to Fujax UK.

Substrate AI (SAI) is forecasting 2024 revenues of $20.6m and pre-tax profit of $1m. This is due to organic growth.

AIM

Self-storage operator Lok’nStore (LOK) has agreed a 1,100p/share cash bid from Belgium-based Shurgard Self Storage. That values the company at £370m. The share price has risen above the level of the bid.

Churchill China (CHH) still managed to increase its profit in 2023 even though the third quarter trading was weak, and revenues fell. Europe was the bright spot, with growth in ceramics sales to hospitality customers in the main markets. The UK was flat, and the rest of the world sales were lower. The dividend has been raised from 31.5p/share to 36p/share. Capital investment will improve efficiency and margins. Investec forecasts flat 2024 pre-tax profit of £10.8m and that assumes an upturn in the UK.

There were no additional negatives in the Bango (BGO) 2023 figures following its disappointing trading statement earlier in the year. In fact, the previously announced foreign exchange loss was not taken through the income statement. Revenues grew from $28.5m to $46.1m with a full contribution from DOCOMO. The reported loss jumped from $4.8m to $10.2m. The NewDeep joint venture is being wound down so that stop the losses from it, while the technology can be used in the core business. Net debt is $3.9m. Capex continues at a high level and there is an unused overdraft facility of £3m that can be used. First quarter revenues are up by one-fifth and cost savings will help Bango achieve the anticipated move into profit this year. Annualised recurring revenues are $11m.

CleanTech Lithium (CTL) chief executive Aldo Boitano has resigned, although he will be a consultant, and Steve Kesler has taken over on an interim basis. This follows the revelation he entered into a loan agreement with his shareholding in the company as security in August 2023, but this was not revealed at the time. He transferred his 9.4 million shares to a custodian account nominated by the lender. It is unclear if any of the shares have been sold.

Cosmetics supplier Warpaint London (W7L) says trading continues to outperform expectations. First quarter sales are 28% higher at £23.5m. This has been achieved by adding stores and broadening the range and there has been no price rise since early 2022. Margins have also improved. Shore believes that its current pre-tax profit forecast of £19.1m for 2024 is likely to be 10% too low. The broker will not upgrade its forecast until the 2023 results are published on 24 April.

Coal miner Bens Creek (BEN) is laying off workers at its mine in West Verginia, which will be operated on a care and maintenance basis. There are 44 employees being laid off and that is described as “a substantial number” of the employees at the mine. Management is in discussions with largest shareholder and offtake partner Avani Resources to provide further finance. Earlier in the week, the company said it had secured a one-off sale of 20,000 tons of coal to Avani Resources for $1.2m, of which $1m has been received in advance of delivery. This is lower quality coal, and the deal is separate to the offtake agreement. This did not prove enough to alleviate the poor financial position of the US-based metallurgical coal miner.

European Green Transition (EGT) is seeking to build up a portfolio of mining and processing projects that can help to progress the move to cleaner energy in Europe. There is potential for grant income from the EU for European critical minerals assets, as well as looking at non-dilutive ways of raising money for individual projects. A placing and offer raised £6.46m at 10p/share. Trading commenced on 8 April. The share price ended the week at 12p. Pro forma net assets are £7.29m, which includes cash of £5.95m. The Olserum rare earth element project in Sweden is the core asset.

Fulcrum Metals (FMET) has acquired the Sylvanite gold tailings project in Ontario. This is a former producing mine, and it is near to the previous tailings investment the Teck-Hughes gold tailings project. There are plans to create a tailings hub. The historic tailings resource estimate at Sylvanite is 67,051 ounces.

First quarter revenues at carbon brake technology developer Surface Transforms (SCE) were £3m, which was lower than target. However, production yields improved in March when revenues were £1.5m. Revised delivery schedules have been agreed. Cavendish has raised its 2024 forecast loss to £3m because of higher scrappage costs and there are likely to be higher working capital requirements. There should still be net cash at the end of 2024.

Drug developer e-therapeutics (ETX) is raising £28.9m at 15p/share from M and G and Richard Griffiths. It is also the latest company to decide to leave AIM. In the future, a Nasdaq listing may be possible.

Active Energy Group (AEG) has been reviewing its operations and how to secure funding. It believes it cannot raise the cash it requires to construct a CoalSwitch biomass fuel plant and commence production. A buyer is being sought for the CoalSwitch assets. If that happens, then the company would become a shell.

Oracle Power (ORCP) has secured an option to acquire 100% of the Blue Rock Valley copper and silver project in Western Australia. The option cost £30,000 in shares. If the option is exercised there will be 913.2 million shares issued – valued at £200,000.

Weak third quarter demand at castings company Chamberlin (CMH) hit profitability. Some new programmes were delayed, and other demand was lower than forecast. The renewable offshore energy sector remained strong. There has been some recovery in the fourth quarter and costs are being reduced. Prices increases have been made.

Harvest Minerals (HMI) has made a rare earth elements discovery at its Arapua fertiliser project in Brazil. Rock samples analysis shows rare earth elements and further work will be done to firm up the opportunity by assessing previous drilling. There has been a better start to the year for sales of fertiliser.

Contract research and infectious disease study services provider hVIVO (HVO) reported 2023 results broadly in line with the trading statement. The order book covers 90% of the forecast revenues of £62m, with a strong first half expected.

MAIN MARKET

Kitchenware retailer ProCook Group (PROC) reported fourth quarter trading showing 4.8% year-on-year growth in revenues to £13.2m with the decline in ecommerce revenues slowing. Like-for-like growth was 1.5% ahead. Full year revenues were flat at £62.6m, although retail revenues were 9% higher. Net debt is £700,000.

Critical Metals (CRTM) has issued £1.6m of convertible loan notes. This will help to finance the road to the Molulu copper cobalt project in the Democratic Republic of Congo and fund initial drilling to establish a JORC resource. Management is also near to securing an $11m loan guaranteed by the US government. This will fund construction of the mine and leave additional cash for investment in other projects. Production at Molulu could start before the end of this year. The plan is to produce 10,000 tonnes of copper each month.

Standard list shell Aura Renewable Acquisitions (ARA) had £661,000 in the bank at the end of 2023. It raised £1m in April 2022. The company is still seeking an acquisition in the renewable energy sector.

Narf Industries (NARF) has won a $500,000 cybersecurity contract with the US Department of Energy. This is part of a project to strengthen the resilience of energy infrastructure.

AQUIS STOCK EXCHANGE

Aquis Stock Exchange owner Aquis Exchange (AQX) reported interims showing growth in all four divisions of the group and the Aquis Stock Exchange remains profitable. Group revenues improved from £7.85m to £9.34m, while pre-tax profit rose from £699,000 to £1.15m. Net cash is £13.9m.

Brewer Adnams (ADB) says trading improved in the second quarter and cost savings started to kick in. This partly offset the decline in revenues in the first quarter, but the interim revenues were still slightly lower at £30m. Operating costs and interest charges increased, and the loss trebled to £3.13m. Adnams is taking on new customers, but the average order size has reduced. Trading conditions are uncertain, but the new customer sand listings will help to boost the second half.

Africa-focused battery metals company Marula Mining (MARU) is considering moving to the standard list as an alternative to AIM. Management believes that this would not add any additional time to the process, and it believes that the proposed investment by Q Global Commodities will make Marula Mining large enough to be eligible for the standard list. It is also planning listings on the Nairobi Securities Exchange and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Warrants exercised at 4p/share raised £50,000. A shipment of 27.5 tonne high-grade material processed from stockpiles at the Blesberg lithium and tantalum mine in South Africa has been delayed. The offtake agreement with Southern Jade Resources has been terminated and an alternative agreement is being finalised. Additional drilling at Blesberg is progressing and initial assay results should be published in late October.

Apollon Formularies (APOL) has executed a binding letter of intent with Sproutly Canada Inc, who will acquire the assets of the cannabis-based drug discovery company. After completion of due diligence, the assets will be acquired in return for shares equivalent to 49% of Sproutly. The effective valuation is C$7m (£4.2m). Sproutly has to go through audits and other regulatory requirements to become active and trading on the Canadian Stock Exchange.

Fuel additives SulNOx Group (SNOX) says it requires new equity investment from existing and new investors in order to achieve faster and sustainable revenue growth. There would additional industry hires for the board and sales personnel. There will also be increases in stock levels and new products will be developed. The board is seeking shareholder authority to issue new shares. Mohanned Nawaz Haq does not agree with the new strategy and the board recommends voting against his appointment at the AGM on 26 September.

Newbury Racecourse (NYR) improved interim turnover by 3% to £8.03m, but the company fell into loss because gross margins slumped. The nursery increased its contribution, but there were lower attendances at races. An event in July had the highest attendance for four years. Next year will get the full benefits of the media rights deal.

Broker and wealth management company Oberon Investments (OBE) has raised £2.5m via a placing at 3.6p/share and a retail offer could raise a further £500,000. The share price dipped 2.78% to 3.5p. The cash will fund expansion, including the recruitment of revenue generating teams. The Winterflood Retail Access Platform offer has a minimum subscription of £50. Investors can apply for shares via their broker or intermediary and the closing date is 4.30pm on 25 September.

Silverwood Brands (SLWD) has been given an extension of the time to deliver its defence to the legal action by Lush and VSA resigning as corporate adviser and being replaced by Peterhouse. Lush is refusing to recognise the transfer of a 20% stake to Silverwood Brands. VSA Capital (VSA) owns 0.88% of Silverwood Brands and says that the share price slump will hit its interim results to September 2023. It will make the loss larger than expected.

Property investor Ace Liberty and Stone (ALSP) increased net assets by 1% to £34.4m at the end of April 2023. Disposals meant that full year revenues fell 2.5% to £5.56m. There is £6.23m in cash available for investment. No final dividend is declared, partly due to the lack of distributable reserves.

Cadence Minerals (KDNC) investee company Evergreen Lithium has completed the final analysis of its EXOSPHERE BY FLEET Ambient Noise Tomography geophysics survey at Bynoe. Nine pegmatite targets have been identified. Approvals are required for drilling.

Watchstone Group (WTG) had net assets of £7.6m at the end of June 2023, including cash of £8.3m. By 19 September, cash had fallen to £7.6m. The claim against PwC was dismissed by the High Court and Watchstone had to settle legal costs. Canadian legal action continues.

Helium Ventures (HEV) has raised £250,000 at 4p/share. There are plans to move to AIM rather than the standard list, while maintaining the Aquis quotation. It hopes to do this by the end of this year. The potential acquisition of tracking technology company Trackimo is progressing, and Mark Notton has been appointed as its chief executive.

MBH Corporation (M8H) has acquired caravan and motorhome retailers Lincoln Leisure Vehicles and Golden Castle Caravans for an initial £400,000 in cash and £2.58m in loan notes. There will also be share issues totalling £2.24m over the next two years. The companies made an operating profit of £660,000 last year. These businesses will be integrated with the existing caravan and motorhomes operations.

Pharma C investments (PCIL) says that the general meeting scheduled for 27 September will not go ahead because the requisition has been withdrawn. The proposals were to remove Gavin Hilary Sathianathan and appoint Paul Ryan and Noel Lyons to the board.

Medical device developer TruSpine Technologies (TSP) has appointed Victoria Sena and Samuel Ogunsalu to the board. The company is not appealing the disciplinary notice from the Aquis Stock Exchange and the new appointments will improve corporate governance.

SuperSeed Capital (WWW) says that the SuperSeed II LP has sold Garvis, a SaaS company offering language model technology and AI-native demand forecasting. The original investment was in September last year. There was a triple digit IRR on the investment.

Lift Global Ventures (LFT) subsidiary Miriad has been appointed as corporate communications agency to Imperial Diagnostix Laboratories, which plans to float next year. Imperial Diagnostix Laboratories provides point of care testing products and has been granted access to the NHS supply chain.

Wishbone Gold (WSBN) says drilling has started at the Red Setter project in Western Australia. Initial targets are at a shallow depth and the company is seeking broad spreads of mineralisation. Drilling at the Cottesloe prospect reinforces previous findings. Additional drilling will be 50% funded by the Western Australian government’s EIS scheme up to a total of A$220,000.

Invinity Energy Systems (IES) says that Canadian company Elemental Energy has commenced operation of the company’s 8.4MWh Invinity VS3 vanadium flow battery. This is the largest operation so far.

Majestic Corporation (MCJ) reported flat revenues of $13m, while pre-tax profit dipped from $980,000 to $862,000. There was $680,000 generated from operating activities. The metals recycler has $1m in the bank. Rising interest rates have had a negative impact on commodity prices.

EPE Special Opportunities (EO.P) directors and the managing partner of EPIC Investment Partners bought a total of 16,837 shares at 160p each.

Kasei Holdings (KASH) has switched its corporate adviser to VSA.

AIM

International retailer Mothercare (LON: MTC) reported a decline in full year revenues from £82.5m to £73.1m. A fall in admin expenses and interest costs, partly offset this decline, but underlying pre-tax profit still slumped from £8m to £3.4m before restructuring costs. The lack of contribution from Russia was a factor in the lower revenues – this is part of the Alshaya franchise area. Middle East demand remains subdued since Covid. Net debt rose from £9.9m to £12.4m. The loan facility is being renegotiated. The current interest rate is 19.2%. Since the year end, a reduction in pension contributions has been agreed. In the ten years to March 2033 the total contributions will be £34.9m, down from £73.7m in the previous ten years. The revaluation of the pension fund shows a deficit of £35m.

Finsbury Food (FIF) is recommending a 110p/share bid by a company backed by DBAY Advisors valuing the cake maker at £143.4m. There is a non-voting share alternative to the cash bid for eligible investors. The bid is less than ten times prospective earnings. The share price has not been at this level since early 2019.

Renewable electricity supplier Good Energy (GOOD) had a strong first half due to higher tariffs and lower supply costs, but the second half will be tougher. Interim revenues were 46% ahead at £156.1m and the company swung from a loss to a pre-tax profit of £13.1m. The energy services business is losing money as it is being built up. The interim dividend has been raised by one-third to 1p/share. Tariff reductions are happening ahead of falls in supply costs for the company and that will lead to a second half loss, but Good Energy will still be profitable for the full year.

Orcadian Energy (ORCA) announced that it has entered non-binding heads of agreement with a North Sea operator to farm out the Pilot project for a full carry until first oil. Orcadian Energy would retain a 18.75% working interest. The agreement includes the drilling of five subsea wells. Orcadian Energy will receive $100,000 when the agreement is completed, plus $100,000 if it is awarded an additional licence. Field development plan approval would trigger a payment of $3m.

Trading has deteriorated since August at replacement windows supplier Safestyle (SFE) and it is expected to lose £10m in 2023. Order levels are falling short of budget. Net debt could reach £6m at the end of 2023 – the credit facility is £7.5m. Management wants to strengthen the balance sheet.

Harvest Minerals (HMI) reported interims showing a near-doubled loss as demand for fertiliser fell and pricing was lower in the period. The second half sales are normally much greater than in the first half, but they continue to be disappointing. Low crop prices mean that farmers are not investing to boost production. Cash has declined and the company has moved into net debt of £1.4m, partly due to a jump in inventories.

Eqtec (EQT) announced that the Billingham waste-to-energy project is not going ahead. Potential customers have closed facilities and the project is behind schedule. So far, £4m has been invested. There is a possibility of getting some of this cash back. Eqtec is also taking legal action against its partner in the Deeside project, seeking repayment of £4m of loans. The focus is other European markets. Forecast 2023 revenues have been slashed by more than three-quarters.

Scancell (SCLP) reports that early data from the phase II SCOPE study of SCIB1 in combination with checkpoint inhibitors as a treatment for advanced melanoma are positive. Tumour reduction at 13 weeks is 31-94%. This is for a relatively small number of patients, but it does indicate that there is strong potential for the treatment. The second stage of the study has a strong probability of success. This data will be available in the first half of 2024. Potential partners are likely to be interested.

Firering Strategic Minerals (FRG) raised £756,000 at 6.5p/share. This cash will be used to define identified pegmatite targets through a drilling campaign at the Atex lithium-tantalum project in Cote d’Ivoire. Firering Strategic Minerals holds 90% of the company that owns the Atex project. Firering Strategic Minerals also owns 75% of Bri Coltan, which owns the coltan rights for the Atex area. Coltan is composed of tantalum, niobium, iron and manganese. Nine target areas have been identified, including the six newer ones. The latest drilling is planned for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Alien Metals (UFO) says the latest drilling results from the 90% owned Hancock Iron Ore project in Western Australia indicate the potential for the project. There is high-grade mineralisation. The resource estimate will be upgraded.

Digital coupons and loyalty technology provider Eagle Eye (EYE) reported organic growth of 29% last year. International revenues grew strongly as new retailers were added to the service and when they sign up retailers tend to stay with the company. This year, pre-tax profit could improve from £4.3m to £6.2m. The cash pile reached £9.3m at the end of June 2023.

Cosmetics supplier Warpaint London (W7L) is bucking the trend of the consumer sector, where many other companies selling to the public are performing poorly. That is down to the fact that Warpaint London is in the value end of the cosmetics market. It is also adding retailers and benefiting from the international spread of the business. UK interim revenues were 28% ahead, while group revenues were 46% higher.

Structural steel supplier Billington (BILN) significantly improved margins in the first half and it still has a strong order book despite the contraction of the construction sector. This reflects the broad spread of projects being supplied. Revenues were 30% higher at £60.1m and pre-tax profit jumped from £1.3m to £4.59m.

There is not going to be a bid for Kinovo (KINO), which was not going to recommend the 56p/share offer and there was no increase tabled.

MAIN MARKET

Motor dealer Pendragon (PDG) plans to sell its entire core business to North American automotive retailer Lithia Motors for £250m. This would turn Pendragon into a software business and there could be a £240m payout to shareholders, equivalent to 16.5p/share. Lithia Motors would also subscribe £30m for 279.4 million shares and will roll out Pendragon’s Pinewood dealer management software to its existing 50 UK sites. However, there has been a bid approach for the whole company from Sweden-based Hedin Mobile and US transportation company PAG International. The initial 28p/share offer was turned down, but a higher bid of 32p/share is being considered.

First Tin (1SN) still has cash of £7.9m and that is enough to fund the DFS for the Taronga tin project in Australia. The cost of the project could be reduced by using solar power and more efficient processing. The mineral resource estimate has been increased by more than 240% to 133 million tonnes. The Tellerhauser project in Germany hopes to gain a mine permit in the third quarter of 2024.

Shipbroker Braemar (BMS) has reaffirmed that it will make an underlying pre-tax profit of at least £20m for the delayed results for the year to February 2023. The investigation into transactions between 2006 and 2013 is nearing completion. There may be adjustments to previous accounts.
