Director dealings: Reneuron CFO makes share purchase

Reneuron revealed on Tuesday that chief financial officer John Hawkins had acquired 100,000 ordinary shares in the AIM-listed stem cell technologies group.

Hawkins, who joined Reneuron in October 2014, purchased the shares at an average price of 9.88p each, for a total value of £9,878.

Back in December, Reneuron reported first-half revenues of £440,000, up from £60,000 a year earlier, related to income from partner-funded development activities and royalty income. The company’s loss for the period totalled £3.2m, narrowing from £5.2m, driven by lower costs, increased revenue, and foreign exchange gains.

As of 1610 GMT, Reneuron shares were up 5.75% at 10.42p.
