Symphony shares traded after a June 30 filing said its audited 2025 results were on the website. The company said its annual report and AGM notice should be out by July 8. There was no new trading update in the notice.
The June 23 release shows the share price move doesn’t tell the whole story. Revenue slipped to £5.73 million from £6.59 million in 2024, but gross margin improved to 51% from 46%. Still, operating loss got worse, hitting £2.12 million from £1.09 million. Loss after tax increased to £2.50 million from £1.34 million.

The changes in revenue were uneven. d2w masterbatch, the main product, dropped 16.5% to £4.56 million, making up roughly 80% of total sales. d2p masterbatch inched up 1.1% to £727,000. Revenue from finished products and sundries increased to £444,000, up from £408,000.
The biggest move was by region. Revenue in the Middle East and Africa dropped 48% to £937,000 from £1.81 million, with UAE sales cut in half to £873,000. Mexico is now the top named country at £1.80 million, up 8.8%. U.S. revenue jumped to £359,000, more than double from last year’s small base.

Symphony reported stronger performance since the end of last year, booking a net profit for the first five months of 2026 after posting a loss the year before. The company said revenue rose 10% and margins improved, boosting operating leverage. Chairman Nicolas Clavel said Symphony has been “trading profitably during 2026 year to date.” Investegate
The main balance-sheet item here is the loan. Symphony on June 22 pushed out £1.5 million in unsecured convertibles with SESR Investments Pte Ltd to Jan. 31, 2027. If unpaid by then, the loans convert at 80% of the three-month volume-weighted average share price. The notes carry a 7% yearly rate, with Symphony committing to pay at least £80,000 in accrued interest before the new due date. SESR holds 19.68% of the company.
India is still the key regulatory driver here. Symphony said the Bureau of Indian Standards has put out IS 19877T:2026, a standard to test plastic biodegradability. Symphony India is working with outside labs now, with certification aimed for the second half of 2026, depending on lab schedules and when regulators move.
The company reported it secured one full 20-foot container order of NbR resin for Jordan in Q1, with three more full 20-foot orders booked in Q2. It also said d2p lemon-scent tech sales have started, though order volumes are still small.
Symphony said on June 24 it held on to the London Stock Exchange’s Green Economy Mark for the seventh straight year. The status is for companies getting at least half their revenue from environmental solutions. CEO Michael Laurier said Symphony’s focus stays on “practical and scalable technologies.” Investegate
