(Alliance News) - The following is a round-up of updates by London-listed companies, issued on Monday and not separately reported by Alliance News:
----------
Gaming Realms PLC - London-based mobile betting games developer - Pretax profit in 2025 rises 4.3% to GBP8.8 million from GBP8.3 million in 2024, as revenue climbs 10% to GBP31.4 million from GBP28.5 million. "The group's continued focus on its content licensing strategy has supported further revenue growth and strong profitability, driven by expansion across both established and newly regulated markets. During the year, Gaming Realms significantly broadened its partner network, launched additional proprietary content and enhanced its distribution platform, positioning the business for continued international growth," the firm says. During the year, it grew the Slingo offering "with 12 new proprietary games and 8 bespoke operator or market-specific adaptations". It has made a "positive start to 2026". "Looking ahead, the group expects to continue expanding across both new and existing regulated markets. The company continues to invest in new proprietary content, platform development and its growing third-party distribution network. The board therefore remains confident in the group's strategy and its prospects for the current year," it adds.

PipeHawk PLC - Cinderford, England-based engineering solutions for utilities, government and rail industries - Pretax loss in six months to December 31 totals GBP573,000, swinging from profit of GBP30,000 a year prior. Revenue falls 45% to GBP1.1 million from GBP2.1 million. "The six months ended 31 December 2025 and the period since then have been very difficult and frustrating for the group. While the directors believe that there is abundant evidence of latent demand and companies wanting to place orders with the group, the economic and political environment is such that confidence and/or funds are lacking to actually place those orders. All this is against a backdrop of generally increasing costs," PipeHawk says.

Corcel PLC - oil exploration and production in Angola and Brazil - Pretax loss in six months to December 31 widens to GBP2.9 million from GBP1.7 million a year prior. No revenue is reported in either period. "The second half of 2025 marked a decisive step forward for Corcel. Having spent the prior twelve months rebuilding the company's foundations, this reporting period has been characterised by execution, consolidation, and the establishment of a well-capitalised platform for the next phase of growth. We entered the period with momentum and exit it with operational progress, strengthened liquidity, and a clear pathway toward drilling and potential production. Corcel is now firmly transitioning from repositioning to delivery," it adds.
----------
Afentra PLC - Africa-focused oil and gas company - Reports a "rig opportunity" which means work at Block 3/05 in offshore Angola can accelerate. "The Block 3/05 joint venture has signed a commercial agreement with Sonangol to utilise the Borr Grid jack-up rig, which is currently under contract to Sonangol, accelerating the planned two-well drilling programme," Afentra adds. The two-well programme will be financed by Sonangol, with costs to be recovered from production revenues from the wells being drilled. "The programme is therefore not expected to impact Afentra's 2026 cash capex," it adds.
----------
Altona Rare Earths PLC - Africa-focused resource exploration and development - Says request for proposals published for Monte Muambe rare earths work programme. It means qualified US firms can now submit proposals for metallurgy and process engineering components of a pre-feasibility study at the Mozambique asset. In February, it struck a grant agreement with the US government, under the US Trade & Development Agency. As part of the deal, USTDA will provide a grant worth USD1.9 million to go towards metallurgy and process engineering components of a Monte Muambe project rare earths pre-feasibility study. The Monte Muambe project is located in the Tete province, in the northwest of the country. "The publication of this RFP represents a key step in activating the USTDA-supported work programme and advancing the Monte Muambe rare earths project towards development," Altona adds.

RTC Group PLC - London-based recruitment company - RTC's Ganymede Solutions has been awarded new and extended deals with infrastructure and energy customers in the UK. It wins an extension to its existing contract with Network Rail, where it is providing "frontline labour across key regions of the UK rail network". The deal commenced in October 2021, has been extended through to October 2029, and the extension is expected to generate revenue above GBP50 million over the period. A separate deal with Network Rail under its isolation & associated services framework has been won. "The contracts will commence on 1 May 2026 and have an initial term of three years, which may be extended up to a maximum term of six years. These contracts will see Ganymede expand its service offering in electrification and isolation services across the UK rail network," RTC adds. Network Rail manages railway infrastructure in England, Scotland, and Wales. Elsewhere, Ganymede wins an extension to a deal with OVO for the provision of smart meter engineers. The deal will continue through to the end of 2026, having been established in 2017. It is to generate revenue of around GBP5 million. Finally, it wins a labour framework agreement with Amey Rail Services Ltd. "The framework has an initial term of three years from March 2026, with an option to extend for a further two years and will see Ganymede continue to provide contingent labour services across Amey's rail operations," RTC adds.
