Elsewhere, DP Poland reported share purchases linked to two of its non-executive directors, made across a number of transactions.

The AIM-traded master franchisor for Domino’s Pizza in Poland said Pageant Holdings bought three million shares at an average price of 6.39p each.

It said Pageant Holdings, a company associated with director Peter Furlong, now held 62,398,473 shares, representing 10.06% of the firm.
