Says loss reflects that the company is at early commercialisation stage and includes significant share options and IPO-related costs. Floated on AIM in July 2021. Says it is on track to ramp up UK-based production capacity to target of 100,000 units per year by 2024. "With momentum from contracts secured to date and the successful launch of Propel's marine motors directly into distribution and retail, management is confident of achieving its targets for the year ended 31 March 2022," company says.

----------

Geiger Counter Ltd - Jersey-based investor in uranium exploration and production stocks - Net asset value per share stands at 46.44p at end of September, surging from 16.47p a year ago. Says sentiment and momentum remained strong over second half of the financial year. "Your board and the investment managers remain confident that your Company has a portfolio of leading companies involved in the mining and supply of uranium and that attractive opportunities remain available to them. Power output from nuclear generation continues to rise and governments around the world are looking to nuclear power to provide both a base load for energy to supplement renewal sources and to reduce more polluting energy generation such as coal," firm says.

----------

Income & Growth VCT PLC - London Main Market-listed venture capital trust - Net asset value per share 110.45p at September-end, up from 70.06p a year ago. NAV total return for year was 51%.

----------

Gore Street Energy Storage Fund PLC - energy storage fund - Says net asset value per share rises to 103.3p at end of September from 100.9p at end of March.

Looking ahead, says company could reach 1 gigawatt capacity by year end with the acquisition of as few as four new projects in the coming months.

Confirms it will pay interim dividend for 2021 of 6p per share.
