Seaweed-based animal feed producer Ocean Harvest Technology (LON: OHT) says interim revenues declined 46% to €950,000 and full year forecast revenues will be well below the previously expected level of €6.1m. Forecasts are under review. Two major accounts have not placed orders this year due to their high inventories. There will be an update on prospects in the interim announcement in September. The share price dived 32.6% to 7.75p.

Early selling pushed down the Silver Bullet Data Services (LON: SBDS) share price by 21.1% to 75p.

Energy supplier Yu Group (LON: YU.) increased revenues by 60% in the first half and cash has increased to £86.8m, but the share price is 12.4% lower at 1655p. Lower prices mean that monthly average bookings have declined by 9% and that will hit operating margins. These factors mean that SP Angel is keeping its full year pre-tax profit forecast at £44.5m even though interim revenues grew much faster than expected.

Podcast platform Audioboom (LON: BOOM) reported flat revenues of $17.1m in the third quarter and EBITDA was positive. There was a decline in gross margin due to the end of the peak advertising related to the US fantasy sport season. Net cash is $3.5m. Cavendish is maintaining its full year forecast revenues of $78.8m and a pre-tax profit of $900,000. The share price fell 9.4% to 226.5p.

Zephyr Energy (LON: ZPHR) has completed the initial phase of testing of the State 36-2R LNW-CC well in the Paradox Basin, US. Peak production rates were 1,350 barrels of equivalent/day even though the well was choked back and constrained. There is a higher condensate yield than nearby wells and this will be attractive to Utah refineries. There is little water production. However, the natural fracture network may be partially obstructed. Zephyr Energy will try to remove drilling mud emulsions that could be blocking the fracture and that will cost a few hundred thousand dollars. The share price dipped 8.6% to 4.25p, but it is still 57% higher this year.
