UK company announcements filtered and explained for private investors.
Videndum PLC (VID) · 2026-11-12
Videndum says trading from 1 July to 31 October 2026 fell short of management’s expectations, and the Board now expects FY26 revenue and adjusted EBITDA to be broadly similar to FY25. Customer projects have slipped from the second half into FY27, while supply constraints, delayed launches and lingering revenue effects from Feltre weigh on sales.
WH Smith PLC (SMWH) · 2026-11-12
WH Smith’s Headline Group profit before tax and non-underlying items fell to £76m in FY26 from £108m in FY25, in line with Company guidance, and the Board expects £75m-£85m in FY27, in line with current market expectations. Headline trading profit fell to £130m from £159m and margin reduced to 8% from 10%. In the first 10 weeks to 7 November, like-for-like revenue was flat and total constant-currency revenue grew 1%, in line with expectations.
Caspian Sunrise PLC (CASP) · 2026-11-12
Caspian Sunrise’s interim results show a collapse in trading, with no oil production and continuing-operations revenue of US$131,000 versus US$3.324 million a year earlier, while the Board says current income would not cover accelerated longer-term investment plans and identifies material going-concern uncertainty. The operating loss widened to US$3.718 million from US$1.794 million and operating cash outflow was US$9.170 million, versus US$0.356 million generated a year earlier.
tinyBuild Inc (TBLD) · 2026-11-12
tinyBuild Inc raised FY26 revenue guidance to $54-56 million and adjusted EBITDA guidance to $7-8 million for the year ending 31 December 2026, with both ahead of current market expectations. Stronger second-half trading after recent launches supported the upgrade.
Burberry Group PLC (BRBY) · 2026-11-12
Burberry Group PLC returned to profit in H1 FY27, with adjusted operating profit rising to £62m from £19m, and expects FY27 revenue growth and margin expansion at CER, although free cash outflow widened to £147m from £50m. The outlook is based on FY26 exchange rates and remains subject to an uncertain external environment.
TheWorks PLC (WRKS) · 2026-11-12
TheWorks PLC upgraded FY27 pre-IFRS 16 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to at least £17.0m, ahead of market expectations, after H1 continuing-operations sales rose 10.1% to £128.8m; it excludes about £1.0m of expected transformation costs as adjusting items. Those costs relate to the circa £6.0m systems-transformation programme over the next four years.
Premier Foods PLC (PFD) · 2026-11-12
Premier Foods upgraded FY26/27 adjusted profit-before-tax and adjusted EPS expectations to the top end of current market expectations after H1 adjusted PBT rose 3.8% to £64.7m. Statutory profit after tax fell 12.4% to £41.0m as higher restructuring and other non-trading costs, plus a lower pension credit, outweighed trading-profit growth.
BAE Systems PLC (BA.) · 2026-11-12
BAE Systems has raised its full-year 2026 free-cash-flow expectation to around £3.0bn from more than £2.0bn previously; the revised figure includes some benefit from customer advances received to date but excludes any material advances during the rest of the year. It retains sales, underlying EBIT and underlying EPS growth guidance, while strong trading in Electronic Systems, Air and Platforms & Services offsets subdued growth and margins in Maritime. BAE also expects to return about £1.6bn to shareholders in 2026, including about £500m of share repurchases.
Galliford Try Holdings PLC (GFRD) · 2026-11-12
Galliford Try said trading at the start of its new financial year was slightly ahead of Board expectations, supported by contract wins, and it remains confident of meeting its current-year objectives.
Chemring Group PLC (CHG) · 2026-11-12
Chemring expects approximately £79m of FY26 underlying operating profit, subject to audit and based on unaudited management information, below £80.3m analyst consensus, but maintains its expectation of strong, material FY27 earnings growth.
Wizz Air Holdings PLC (WIZZ) · 2026-11-12
Wizz Air Holdings PLC’s H1 operating profit fell 39.8% year on year to €264.5m despite revenue growth of 13.8% year on year, while management expects Q3 F27 RASK to rise by low single digits and F27 ex-fuel CASK to increase by mid-single digits year on year. Q2 RASK rose 0.5% year on year to 5.55 cents, ahead of management’s flat guidance.
Tribal Group PLC (TRB) · 2026-11-12
Tribal Group PLC proposes a solvent winding-up and AIM cancellation after selling its businesses, with a first cash distribution expected around 21 December 2026 if shareholders approve the MVL Resolution. The amount remains subject to liabilities and liquidation costs, with about £1.5 million currently expected to be retained.
Kier Group PLC (KIE) · 2026-11-12
Kier Group said FY27 trading is in line with expectations after a positive start and it has made excellent early progress towards more than £200m of average monthly net cash by the end of FY29, although its order book was £11.7bn at September 2026, slightly below £11.9bn in June. It expects order-book growth in December as recent contract wins enter the book.
Persimmon PLC (PSN) · 2026-11-12
Persimmon said full-year 2026 performance remains in line with market expectations, subject to no further material change in market conditions, but expects inflationary pressures to add approximately £30m–£40m of costs in 2027; with higher financing costs, these are expected to limit near-term profit progression. Private forward sales rose 3% to £2.15bn as at 1 November 2026, from £2.09bn at the comparable prior-year date.
Shawbrook Group PLC (SHAW) · 2026-11-12
Shawbrook’s loan book including OTD rose to £20.3 billion at 30 September 2026 from £19.2 billion at 31 December 2025, and it remains on track to meet FY 2026 targets including a c.£21 billion loan book. CET1 increased to 13.4%, before Basel 3.1, from 12.4% at year-end.
Keller Group PLC (KLR) · 2026-11-12
Keller Group remains on track for significant 2026 revenue and profit growth, in line with market expectations that were materially upgraded after strong H1 2026 performance. Expected record volumes and a record £2.5 billion order book support delivery, despite weak US residential and UK activity and deferred Moretrench remediation work.
Endeavour Mining PLC (EDV) · 2026-11-12
Endeavour Mining delivered record free cash flow of $1,023m in the nine months to 30 September 2026 and ended Q3 with $263m of net cash; it remains on track for FY-2026 production guidance of 1,090-1,265koz and AISC guidance of $1,600-$1,800/oz when adjusted for higher gold-price-driven royalty costs, although Mana is expected to miss its 155-180koz production range and exceed its $2,000-$2,250/oz AISC range. It also approved Assafou development, but its initial P80 upfront-capital estimate rose to $1.2bn from the DFS estimate of $1.061bn.
Young & Co's Brewery PLC (YNGA) · 2026-11-12
Young’s grew first-half revenue to £291.1 million from £263.6 million and adjusted operating profit to £46.7 million from £40.7 million, and expects full-year performance to be in line with recently upgraded market expectations. Like-for-like sales rose 6.4% in the first half and 5.1% in the six weeks since the period end.
Air Astana JSC (AIRA) · 2026-11-12
Air Astana Group remained within its published medium-term liquidity and leverage parameters at 30 September 2026, but nine-month EBITDAR fell 5.7% to USD 247.3 million and it expects persistent near-term inflationary cost pressures, particularly fuel, to offset part of revenue-growth momentum. Profit after tax swung to a USD 2.7 million loss, despite revenue and other income growing 17.9% to USD 1.3 billion in the first nine months.
Volex reported strong H1 FY2027 growth, with revenue up 23.9% to $723.6m and underlying operating profit up 40.9% to $80.6m; the Board expects H2 revenue broadly in line with H1 excluding about $10m brought forward, as buffer-stock drawdown is offset by a full six months of KST.
Rolls-Royce Holdings plc (RR.) · 2026-11-12
Rolls-Royce said large-engine flying hours rose 4% year on year in the first 10 months of 2026 to 114% of 2019 levels, while continued operational, strategic and financial progress gave further confidence in its existing full-year guidance for underlying operating profit of £4.7bn–£4.9bn and free cash flow of £3.8bn–£4.0bn. It also announced a £1.5bn interim share buyback, due to complete by its full-year results on 25 February 2027.
Serco Group PLC (SRP) · 2026-11-12
Subject to customary conditions including relevant US regulatory and security approvals, Serco Group has agreed to buy QinetiQ’s US business for $292m (£218m) in cash. It expects the acquisition to be accretive to underlying EPS in 2028 and says its 2026 guidance, set out on 6 August 2026, is unchanged; completion is expected in Q1 2027.
Rolls-Royce Holdings plc (RR.) · 2026-11-12
Rolls-Royce is bringing forward its share buybacks, starting an accelerated programme of up to £1.5 billion alongside its 2026 repurchases. This accelerates the timing of the existing £7 billion to £9 billion 2026-28 plan rather than increasing its stated total size.
3i Group PLC (III) · 2026-11-12
3i Group PLC will launch a new ordinary-share buyback of up to £750 million on 12 November 2026, with acquired shares cancelled to reduce its share capital. The programme must finish by 31 May 2027.
Drax Group PLC (DRX) · 2026-11-12
Drax Group has priced €1 billion of 5.5-year senior secured notes at 5.875%, a refinancing Drax expects to extend its average debt-maturity profile while remaining neutral to Group leverage. Gross proceeds are intended principally to repay the remaining Bridge Facility debt, alongside offering costs and general corporate purposes including certain existing Group debt repayment.
Coro Energy PLC (CORO) · 2026-11-12
Coro Energy has conditionally raised £1.0 million gross through a 33,333,000-share placing at 3p, while the placing and proposed subscription shares would represent 25.7% of enlarged share capital after admission.
Regional REIT Limited (RGL) · 2026-11-12
Regional REIT cut its Q3 2026 dividend to 2.00p per share from 2.50p, but expects disposals to add about £1.4m to earnings, in line with current market expectations, and is targeting a fully covered FY2026 dividend of 8.0p per share. Year-to-date disposals of £32.2m averaged 11.0% below pre-sale book value, while borrowings and loan-to-value have reduced.
PCI-PAL PLC (PCIP) · 2026-11-12
PCI-PAL said FY27 new-business sales to the end of October were ahead of management expectations, while FY26 results are now expected in the week commencing 23 November 2026. Commercial momentum continued into FY27, according to the Company.
Dr. Martens PLC (DOCS) · 2026-11-12
Dr. Martens’ H1 FY27 revenue fell 9.2% at constant currency to £292.4m and adjusted EBIT at constant currency swung to a £2.2m loss from a £3.1m profit; October revenue still ran at a mid-teens year-on-year decline, and the Group said FY27 revenue and adjusted PBT could have a wide range of outcomes. Operating cash outflow widened to £33.0m and net debt including leases rose to £310.8m at 27 September 2026.
B&M European Value Retail SA (BME) · 2026-11-12
B&M’s unaudited results for the 26 weeks to 26 September 2026 showed adjusted EBITDA before IFRS 16 up 6.0% to £203m and adjusted PBT up 16.6% to £121m, while management introduced FY27 guidance of £450m–£500m and £280m–£330m respectively. Post-tax free cash flow rose to £132m from £51m a year earlier.
Ingenta PLC (ING) · 2026-11-12
Ingenta said FY26 revenue was broadly in line with market expectations and adjusted EBITDA remains in line with market expectations, but two contracts with its largest customer, worth about £2m of FY26 Group revenue, will not renew as they expire into 2027; their impact extends to FY27 and beyond, although the Board expects savings and its AI refocus to largely offset it in 2027. It has appointed Dr Dan Brown as Deputy Chairman and Greg Healey as interim COO to support the refocus.
Microlise Group PLC (SAAS) · 2026-11-12
Microlise Group PLC declared a 0.63p interim dividend per share for the six months ended 30 June 2026, up from 0.60p for the FY2025 interim dividend.

Cobra Resources PLC (COBR) · 2026-11-12
Cobra Resources reported further copper intersections at Manna Hill, while unassayed visual and pXRF evidence points to potential western growth but cannot establish grade or economic significance.
Central Asia Metals PLC (CAML) · 2026-11-12
Central Asia Metals has secured three rigs for Chibougamau and expects drilling of up to 70,000 metres through end-2027, although the programme and its milestones remain forward-looking and uncertain.

Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals has treated the first patient in the second adult HG-CT-1 dose cohort for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukaemia, at twice the initial dose, after an independent safety review found no dose-limiting toxicities in the first cohort. Progress followed an interval during which five consenting second-cohort patients could not be treated because of rapid disease progression before their CAR-T cells were manufactured.
Abenojar Tungsten, S.A. (ABT) · 2026-11-12
ABT is advancing construction at the El Moto underground tungsten and gold mine, with 60 metres of main decline developed and first production still targeted for Q1 2029. Net IPO proceeds and existing cash are expected to fund construction through end-2027 independently of the planned project finance facility.
Cora Gold Ltd (CORA) · 2026-11-12
Cora Gold has conditionally agreed to demerge its Senegal exploration assets into private Madina Minerals, with shareholders set to receive one Madina share for every ten Cora shares unless they opt out. The distributed interests will not be tradeable while Madina remains private, and completion still needs Senegalese approval and the DI Facility.
Manx Financial Group PLC (MFX) · 2026-11-12
Manx Financial Group has launched Juno Hunt, a UK savings comparison site that its CEO says could create another Group income stream. Mobile and Open Banking features are targeted within six weeks, subject to integration and testing, while a broader regulated platform would need FCA authorisation.
First Class Metals PLC (FCM) · 2026-11-12
First Class Metals reported grab samples of up to 40.00 g/t Au from two open gold-anomalism zones at Pettigrew, but such samples may not represent average mineralisation. Its initial 1,000-metre drilling programme is expected to commence imminently, with mobilisation under way.

Lexington Gold Ltd (LEX) · 2026-11-12
Lexington Gold has expanded and standardised Kroonstad’s historical drilling data, with its 3D geological model nearing completion, but any JORC (2012) Exploration Target is only expected in December 2026 and would be conceptual rather than a Mineral Resource.
Buccaneer Energy PLC (BUCE) · 2026-11-12
Buccaneer Energy PLC has launched a conditional retail offer to raise up to £100,000 at 0.01p per share, with completion dependent on its earlier placing and subscription completing and AIM admission.

FORGENT plc (FORG) · 2026-11-12
FORGENT plc reported its first gold discovery from its own drilling at Cathedral, but the early result has not established a Mineral Resource or commercial discovery.
