Interim results released on 30 September showed revenue up 58%. The loss before tax widened to £7.6m from £5.6m 1H23. Operationally, the volume ramp-up is continuing but at a rate below target, with yields improving (but also below target), and ongoing downstream process problems. The company stated at the interims that 4Q24 revenues were likely to be £3.5m, which is obviously illustrating the growth over 1H24, but would be 40% down on plan. This means operational cash outflow continues. The com...

SCE is delivering its £390m order book but still faces headwinds. It is knocking down the obstacles, giving detailed explanation of progress, and, indeed, output has been consistently good since late June. Clearly, this is not as early as hoped. We maintain our 2024E sales, but we have reduced several forward profit estimates. This means that we now estimate a £2m gross cash outflow for 2H24, with a stable 2025, and rising 2H25 and thereafter. Significantly, from here, there are now duplicated p...

Surface Transforms has issued a brief pre close trading update for H1. Full year revenue guidance of £17.5m has been confirmed but, as we expected, this is significantly weighted to H2. Sales in H1 were £4.6m but excluded preproduction engineering revenue which will now be recognised in H2. The current brake disc manufacturing run-rate is significantly higher than earlier in the year and is now meeting customer expectations. We understand that factory capacity is increasing and risks from single...
The UK industrial sector continues to strengthen with June output and order books increasing for a second consecutive month, albeit at a slightly slower pace than in May. We think it is too soon to declare conclusively a turnaround, but recent industrial and economic data have been reassuring, as inflation returned to the BoE’s 2% target and sentiment remained positive.
