----------
Vodafone Group PLC, up 4.1% at 119.25p, 12-month range 80.68p-131.10p. It has made a "good start" to its financial year, boosted by the consolidation of Three UK and "broad-based" growth in all segments. The telecommunications company says total revenue in the first quarter to June 30 rises 9.7% to EUR10.29 billion from EUR9.39 billion a year prior. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation and after leases climb 6.7% to EUR2.93 billion from EUR2.75 billion a year prior. Vodafone's guidance for the year now includes the impact of consolidating Safaricom. The firm expects an annual adjusted Ebitda after leases between EUR13.0 billion and EUR13.3 billion, lifted from EUR11.9 billion and EUR12.2 billion. In financial 2026, it amounted to EUR11.4 billion. Chief Executive Officer Margherita Della Valle says: "Following the completion of the Safaricom transaction, we are updating our guidance range to reflect the contribution from Kenya and Ethiopia. And after our good start to the year, we are expecting to deliver the upper end of the new group ranges."
----------
BP PLC, down 3.7% at 528.3p, 12-month range 397.15p-609.40p. Iran says it has halted retaliatory attacks against Washington's allies in the Middle East, and US ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz tells "Fox News Sunday" that, while forces remained "locked and loaded", US President Donald Trump would give negotiations "a little bit of room". Brent falls to USD89.67 on Monday morning, from around USD98 late Friday and after topping USD100 on Thursday. BP is making headway on plans to divest its solar power business, Lightsource, the Financial Times reported on Friday. The oil major is in talks with a consortium made up of Wren House, which is the infrastructure-focused segment of the Kuwait Investment Authority, and Madrid-based investment firm Qualitas Energy, according to sources familiar with the matter cited by the FT.

Revenue is in line with USD15.39 billion company compiled consensus. Core operating profit per share in the second quarter rises 21% on-year to USD2.63, an 18% rise at constant currency, beating consensus of USD2.49.
----------
