The stock climbs nearly 8%.The first set of interim results from media group Perform since it floated in April of this year showed the sporting events film footage provider on a growth trajectory.Revenue in the first half of 2011 of £45.1m was almost half as much again as the £30.7m racked up in the first half of last year, with the group boasting strong growth across all of its business areas.FTSE 100 - RisersRoyal Bank of Scotland Group (RBS) 24.35p +11.29%Barclays (BARC) 168.25p +8.55%Lloyds Banking Group (LLOY) 32.10p +8.04%Carnival (CCL) 1,944.00p +5.82%Cairn Energy (CNE) 314.80p +5.11%Capital Shopping Centres Group (CSCG) 334.00p +5.10%Kazakhmys (KAZ) 1,040.00p +4.94%Man Group (EMG) 217.80p +4.91%Prudential (PRU) 601.00p +4.89%InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) 1,019.00p +4.78%FTSE 100 - FallersRandgold Resources Ltd.
