Microlise's richer ARR mix still needs a second-half revenue rebound
Microlise left the first half with a better revenue mix and a smaller income statement. Recurring revenue rose only slightly, yet it became 76% of group revenue because hardware, installation and project activity fell much faster. The investment case now turns on whether…

Transense's 25% target needs more than 25% growth from its operating businesses
Transense Technologies enters FY27 with a headline growth target and a quieter arithmetic problem. Its iTrack royalty still supplies almost half of revenue and much more than half of segment profit, while SAWsense is funding the difficult passage from engineering work to…

Oxford Biomedica’s £168 Million Revenue Cover Faces a Cash Test
Contracted orders cover about £168 million of Oxford Biomedica’s forecast 2026 revenue, subject to performance obligations. A 37% first-half gross margin and £34.3 million company-defined net cash outflow put the emphasis on the economics of delivery ahead of Durham’s expected…

New Era’s 207 MW Deal Starts a Credit Clock, Not a Data Centre

Invinity's 34.2 MWh of orders still has to cross the cash bridge
Invinity Energy Systems entered 2026 with a stronger order book and a cheaper battery design, but its first-half accounts describe a business still financing the distance between a signed megawatt-hour and collected cash. The decisive evidence will not be another pipeline…

IQE’s £41.6m Cash Balance Is Not Its InP Ramp
IQE sold more wafers and improved adjusted profit in the first half of 2026. Its cash-flow statement tells a more demanding story: the stronger balance sheet followed a financing, while converting existing equipment into dependable indium-phosphide output remains work for the…
