FALLERS
EnergyPathways (LON: EPP) shares returned from suspension following the completion of a £1.75m fundraising at 5.75p/share. The cash came from a single institution. This will help to finance the MESH project, including the purchase of assets for the development. Grant funding is being pursued. EnergyPathways is still talking with potential partners for the development, which captures excess energy from offshore wind power and stores it in offshore salt caverns. The share price declined 21% to 5.85p.
Broker and mergers adviser Cavendish (LON: CAV) says interim revenues will be around £22.8m, down from £28.5m. Timetables and completion of deals are difficult to predict. Cavendish still has the largest number of AIM company clients of any broker. The share price slipped 15.2% to 7p.
Impax Asset Management (LON: IPX) reported assets under management of £20bn at the end of September 2026, which is lower than expected because of outflows of £2.4bn during the quarter. Management blames previous poor performance. This has reduced 2026-27 operating profit expectations to £14.9m, while last year’s forecast is maintained at £15.7m. Equity Development has fair value of 220p/share. The share price fell 12.3% to 88.9p.
Graphene technology developer Haydale (LON: HAYD) says that its opportunity pipeline has increased to £20m, helped by the acquisition of SaveMoneyCutCarbon. However, production delays mean that 2025-26 revenues will be £5m, rather than £8m as previously expected. That means a pre-tax loss of £3.2m. The lower activity level means that net cash will be slightly higher than previously forecast at £1m. The share price slid 14% to 0.24p.
Everyman Media (LON: EMAN) has sent out the circular to gain shareholder approval for the departure from AIM. There is already backing from shareholders owning 61.2% of the share capital.
