FALLERS
Pipehawk (LON: PIP) shares have slumped 74.7% to 2.15p because of financial difficulties at test and manufacturing systems company QM Systems, which had moved to larger premises. Two large orders have not been obtained. QM Systems is likely to be put into administration. QM Systems accounted for 65% of group revenues last year and lost £970,000. The rest of the group should be able to continue as a going concern, although continuing activities made a loss in the year to June 2023.
Baron Oil has changed its name to Sunda Energy (LON: SNDA) and the share price dipped 3.03% to 0.08p.
