Guest – Mustaq Brey – CEO of Brimstone

Brimstone today released its Group results for the six months ended 30 June 2025.

The Group reported headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) of 96.9 cents (2024: 71.9 cents), up 35% on the comparative period. This improvement was driven mainly by stronger profitability at Sea Harvest and supported by lower finance and operating costs at Brimstone.
