In a separate statement, finnCap announced that at the company's annual general meeting held on Monday its shareholders passed on a poll all the resolutions as set out in the Notice of AGM dated July 31, 2020.

Excluding its investment in its CARMA Cell Therapies subsidiary, the cell-based therapies and life sciences company saw underlying earnings (EBITDA) turn positive at US$0.6mln in the first half of 2020, compared to a loss of US$1.4mln the year before.

Enterprises Limited to jointly develop the proposed up to 25 MW Billingham Energy waste gasification and power plant at Haverton Hill, Billingham, UK.
