K3 Business Technology Group PLC, down 7.4% at 88.00p, 12-month range 82.00p-126.00p. For the six months to May 31, the business-critical software solutions provider reports revenue from continuing operations of GBP15.5 million, down from GBP20.3 million a year prior. Pretax loss narrows to GBP2.8 million from GBP2.9 million, due to lower expenses, but loss per share widens to 6.6 pence from 6.5p in the previous year, due to a profit from discontinued operations that benefited the earlier period. Separately, names Oliver Scott as non-executive chair, replacing Executive Chair Tom Crawford.

----------

Angus Energy PLC, down 7.2% at 0.30p, 12-month range 0.24p-1.15p. The UK-focused onshore oil and gas developer says it has completed its annual maintenance shutdown for 2024 on schedule. Maintenance and improvement project work scopes, including the installation of compressor acoustic hoods, were delivered successfully within the scheduled five-day outage with no safety incidents and with no harm to the environment, the firm elaborates.
