Aferian PLC, up 69% at 5.5 pence, 12-month range 2.5p-12.5p. The business-to-business video streaming company expects to report second-half revenue, for the year ending November 30, that’s around 20% than the $12.2 million it reported for the first half. Also expects positive adjusted Ebitda of about $2 million, thanks to revenue growth ‘plus cost reduction actions taken earlier in the year’. Still anticipates net debt reduction by the end of the year, ‘as cost savings and working capital initiatives implemented in the first half generate improvements in free cash flow’. CEO Mark Carlisle hails ‘the strong performance...with increased sales orders and new business wins across the group’. Says Aferian is ‘well-positioned to close the year on a positive note and drive sustained growth into the future’.
