Victrex, down 1.5%. The speciality chemicals maker warned that the Covid-19 pandemic is beginning to hit its forward order book, as it posted a dip in first-half profit. For the six months to March 31, revenue rose 4% to GBP151.5 million from GBP145.7 million a year before; however, pretax profit edged lower to GBP49.9 million from GBP50.2 million reflecting exceptional items of GBP2.1 million related to the group's China subsidiary investment. The rise in revenue was attributed to an improved volume performance and a slightly weaker product mix. Victrex deferred its interim dividend payment, due to the coronavirus crisis, and said the timing of any shareholder payment will be dependent on "prevailing macro-economic and end-market conditions over the coming months".

The Irish lender said it said it suffered a massive swing to a first-quarter loss, with the Dublin-based lender hit by ballooning impairment costs and market volatility.

It reported a pretax loss of EUR241 million in the three months to the end of March, from a EUR123 million profit a year before. Bank of Ireland incurred net impairment charges of EUR266 million, ratcheted, up from EUR43 million in the first quarter of 2019. Costs this year included a "Covid-19 management overlay", the lender said. Bank of Ireland warned of "expected increased impairment and loan loss experience over the course of 2020".
