Hercules PLC (LSE:HERC) expects record revenue of over £118 million this year, up 16% year-on-year. CFO Paul Wheatcroft said demand across UK infrastructure is strong, supported by government investment, new acquisitions, and major contracts in power, energy, and water projects. 

S&U PLC (LSE:SUS) has posted a sharp turnaround, with half-year profits up 22% to £15.6 million. Chairman Anthony Coombs said both divisions are performing strongly, with defaults easing, tighter lending standards, and a higher interim dividend of 35p declared. 

Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM) is seeing strong early traction in regulated tokenisation, with $135,000 in revenue last month and more expected ahead. CEO Gary Cottle said VLRM Markets has over $100 million in deal flow, focusing on real-world asset tokenisation like gold and natural resources. 

Vaultz Capital PLC (AQSE:V3TC) has completed a dual listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange to boost its European visibility and investor reach. CEO Eric Benz said the move supports long-term growth, with plans also underway for trading on OTC Markets in the US. 

MedPal AI plc (AIM:MPAL) is expanding into the online pharmacy space through its acquisition of Universal Pharmacy. CEO Jason Drummond said the deal connects MedPal’s AI-powered health app directly to prescription services, with revenue generation expected to begin soon.
