Engineering services group Renew reinstated its interim dividend after it booked a 19% rise in profit.
Pre-tax profit for the six months through March increased to £18.1 million, up from £15.2 million year-on-year, as revenue jumped 17% to £366.4 million.
Renew declared an interim dividend of 4.83p per share.
Looking forward, it said trading had started 'strongly' in the second half.
