Versarien PLC - Cheltenham, England-based engineering materials company - Says Neill Ricketts has resigned as chief executive officer from the company. Says it is considering the "appropriate longer term management structure" and will update in due course.

In February, it reported a pretax loss of GBP8.3 million in the 18 months to September 30, compared to GBP8.1 million the year before. Revenue rose to GBP11.1 million from GBP5.7 million.
