Summary · why it matters

Genflow Biosciences announced that its SLAB gene therapy trial in ageing dogs has met its primary endpoint, and it is now in talks with major animal health companies about a licensing deal. EnergyPathways has appointed Jacobs as engineering and regulatory partner for its MESH energy storage project in the Irish Sea, moving toward a key Ofgem funding submission. Itaconix is targeting a doubling of revenue to $30 million in the medium term, after half-year revenue jumped 72% on strong detergent demand. Gaming Realms says it is well placed to keep growing despite a UK tax hike hitting margins, with core content licensing revenue up 12% in the first half. Total Graphite reports that fresh drilling in Madagascar has strengthened the case for restarting mining at Vatomina, with one hole returning 19 metres at 3.3% graphite. 80 Mile has agreed indicative terms for a £61.5 million all-share takeover by Nasdaq-listed Greenland Energy, representing a near-47% premium to its share price.
