During the period, it achieved four case wins and suffered three losses. ‘While the first half of FY25 has been a period of mixed results, we are pleased with the strong realisations achieved and the ongoing progress of our portfolio. The high multiple on invested capital reflects the value we continue to generate from our disciplined approach to dispute financing. We remain confident in our ability to deploy capital effectively and to deliver attractive returns for our stakeholders as we move into the second half of the financial year,’ Chief Executive Officer Patrick Moloney says.

Van Elle Holdings PLC, down 4.3% at 36.85p, 12-month range 32.11p-46.00p. The ground engineering contractor reports weaker half-year earnings. Pretax profit in the six months to October 31 falls by a quarter to £1.9 million from £2.5 million. Revenue is 4.5% lower at £65.2 million from £68.2 million. ‘Market conditions in each of our end markets are expected to remain challenging for the remainder of the current financial year. However, the group has continued to secure a solid pipeline of future work, including several targeted key contract wins, and has a strong order book for delivery in the final quarter of the financial year. Whilst H1 revenues were below prior year levels, the group has taken steps to reduce its cost base and is well-positioned to take advantage of the anticipated market recovery,’ Van Elle says. It maintains its interim dividend at 0.4p per share.
