AIM - WINNERS

Morses Club, up 64% at 0.98 pence, 12-month range 0.26p-49.70p. The Nottingham-based doorstep lender says its current facility of GBP25 million remains in place until March 31 and its funders have now agreed to extend the term-out clause to March 2023. Earlier this month, Morses Club announced it is set to wave goodbye to London's junior AIM market. At the time it said it believes its "most likely" source of future funds will come from private capital. However, a day later JO Hambro Capital Management sold its entire stake in the company, putting the delisting in doubt. JO Hambro had owned 8.8 million shares and had committed to support the company's proposed delisting from AIM. This meant shareholder support for the delisting had fallen to just under 45% from 51%. It needs the support of 75% of shareholders.

The London-based IT consulting firm says revenue in its third quarter to December 31 fell by 3.9% to GBP19.0 million from GBP19.8 million a year ago.

"We have faced some challenges in recruiting the right mix of resource and skill sets on a timely basis to support our new business wins, and this has led to pressure on margins. Combined with client-driven challenges in some parts of the business, these factors have led to a reduction in our revenue and margin expectations for the remainder of the financial year," Chief Executive Bjorn Conway explains.
