Shares in Cape, the support services firm focused on the energy sector, plunged following a profit warning. The group is unlikely to meet previous expectations for 2012, with problems likely to continue into 2013, despite a restructure of the Australian part of its business.
Meanwhile, speciality plastic, fibre and foam products supplier Filtrona rose after it said it is well positioned to deliver growth for the full year as it reported a 24 per cent increase in half year revenue.
