BiON PLC - Kuala Lumpur-based renewable energy services - Starts trading on AIM again as released 16-month report on Wednesday. However, the cash shell expects shares to be suspended on October 20 as "it is highly unlikely it will be able to complete a reverse takeover" since becoming a cash shell nearly six months ago on April 19. Pretax loss in the 16 months to April 30 narrows to MYR86.0 million, about GBP16.4 million, from MYR120.3 million it reported for calendar year 2020.

States lengthened raw material lead times delay projects scheduled for the fourth quarter. Says no orders lost, will now be delivered in new financial year. States it is not experiencing any negative effect from current exchange rates.

----------

OnTheMarket PLC - Aldershot, Hampshire-based property listing portal - Hails several major contract wins, including with estate agents such as Savills, Chestertons and Knight Frank. Meanwhile, strikes deal with property firm Lomond Group Ltd. "The fast-growing network of sales and lettings businesses encompasses over 60 branches across many well-known agency brands located across England and Scotland," OnTheMarket says. Meanwhile, pretax profit in the half-year ended July 31 surges 67% to GBP75,000 from GBP45,000 a year prior. Revenue climbs 14% to GBP17.0 million from GBP14.9 million. Administrative expenses widen 23% to GBP15.8 million from GBP12.8 million. States confidence in full-year expectations despite current macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty. "Despite this, HM Revenue & Customs data shows that the UK housing market has seen normal transactional numbers in the past six months," firm says. Adds that full-year adjusted operating profit is weighted towards the second half of financial year 2023, ending January 31. The second half started on August 1.
