Computacenter PLC said Q3 trading was ahead of its expectations and raised FY 2026 adjusted profit before tax guidance to no less than £425m, despite a decline in Managed Services revenue being more than offset by Professional Services growth.
Castings PLC has cut its FY27 adjusted profit-before-tax expectation to broadly the prior-year level excluding historical R&D tax credits, versus pre-update analyst consensus of £12.9m, as unresolved production arrears and catch-up costs persist after a power-supply issue. FY27 revenue expectations remain in line with £181.1m consensus.
Plus500 Ltd expects FY 2026 revenue and EBITDA to be ahead of current market expectations after Q3 revenue rose 11% to $203.2m and EBITDA rose 7% to $88.4m.

Greatland’s September quarter was better than plan for gold production and AISC, according to management, but gold and copper output and net revenue fell from the June quarter while AISC rose. It remains on track for FY27 guidance and ended the quarter debt free with A$1.789 billion of available liquidity.
Bioventix PLC said FY2026 revenue and profit after tax were slightly ahead of market expectations, but reported revenue fell to £13.0m from £13.1m as legacy products faced pressure. A terminated progesterone-antibody contract will remove about £400,000 of annual revenue from future periods.
Sareum Holdings has conditionally raised about £3.2m before expenses at 14p per share, a roughly 49% discount to the pre-pause price, to fund SDC-1801 towards Phase 2 readiness, neuroscience work and working capital. The funding remains conditional on AIM admission.
Safestay PLC said year-to-date trading remains below the Board’s original expectations, although recent trading has shown signs of improvement. Liquidity pressure persists into the quieter winter months. Bank borrowings fell to £9.1 million at 23 October 2026 from £13.6 million at 30 June 2026 after property-sale proceeds were used to reduce debt.
Airtel Mobile Commerce N.V. said H1 FY’27 was in line with management expectations: revenue reached USD 830m, up 25.1% in constant currency, but underlying EBITDA margin fell to 48.0% from 50.8% after intra-group agreement changes and a DRC levy. Underlying EBITDA rose to USD 398m and operating free cash flow increased to USD 378m from USD 297m.
Cizzle Biotechnology Holdings has conditionally raised £500,000 before expenses from existing shareholder Frazer Lang and is converting £250,000 of loan notes into shares, but the second subscription tranche remains subject to conditions. The financing also grants 62,500,000 warrants at 1.2p, expiring on 1 October 2031, and reprices 22,500,000 existing warrants to 1.2p with the same expiry; 25,000,000 new warrants depend on second-tranche admission.

Critical Metals PLC remained pre-revenue in the year to 30 June 2026. Its operating loss before exceptional items narrowed to £980,902 from £1,841,511, but the reported pre-tax loss was also helped by an £842,991 debt-forgiveness gain; material going-concern uncertainty remains because operations depend on external funding.
Quadrise PLC has launched a Strategic Review, but widening losses, falling cash and the need for further uncommitted funding before positive cash flow leave a material going-concern uncertainty. The review covers partnership, licensing, joint-venture, investment and acquisition options, but Quadrise is not seeking offers for the Company.
One Health Group PLC grew H1 27 revenue 17% to £18.3 million, but the Board remains on track to deliver FY27 revenue growth and underlying EBITDA in line with current market expectations amid possible NHS commissioning disruption in the second half.

Unaudited GPV is expected to rise 11% to circa £1.695 billion from £1.525 billion at 31 March 2026; total fair-value movements were £234 million, or 15.3% of opening GPV.

It says the Final Offer’s financial terms are final, subject to specified exceptions.

Georgina Energy PLC’s mobilisation of Ensign Rig 970 to Hussar EP513 is delayed by heavy-vehicle road closures and variable weather, so drilling has not started and no revised spud date has been given. Civil and site works are complete, while WMOG pursues road-access discussions and an alternative route.
Aptamer Group has begun a cost-sharing preclinical collaboration with Pharmahungary to develop Optimer delivery vehicles for heart and skeletal muscle.
