One renewal is still outstanding, and this will trigger the issue of 2.06 million shares at 6.2p each. The share price increased 8.51% to 2.55p.
PR technology company Pathos Communications (LON: NEWS) chief executive Omar Handi has bought 160,000 shares at 22.5625p each. He owns 72.6%. The share price rebounded 4.55% to 23p.
