Virgin Wines (VINO) says full year revenues are 4% ahead even though the wine retail market is down by one-fifth. The fourth quarter was slightly weaker than expected.

Ian Amiee, Daryl Amiee and Doolittle SSAS account Amiee has acquired a 3.06% stake.

Revenues and profit were lower in the Middle East. Net cash was £3.9m at the end of March 2026. Full year pre-tax profit is expected to improve from £1.4m to £1.5m reflecting caution concerning global uncertainty.

Lambert lost money last year, but it is expected to return to profit in 2026. Italy-based Mech.i. Tronic is paying an initial £16m for Lambert with up to £4m more depending on performance in 2026. This deal is part of the reason behind a sharp cut in the 2026 pre-tax profit forecast, but there are also tough trading conditions putting pressure on margins.
Shares in skin treatments developer SkinBioTherapeutics (SBTX) returned from suspension after the restated annual results and the most recent interims were published following an investigation in the financial affairs of the business.

Bonuses paid to Martin Hunt and Dr Cathy Prescott have subsequently been repaid. Interim revenues improved from £1.58m to £2.17m, while the loss was reduced from £1.04m to £794,000, but that was due to a £250,000 write back of contingent consideration.
