Alpha Group gained after saying it has extended possible takeover discussions with Corpay just weeks after the fintech rebuffed an initial offer from the US business payments giant.
Energy company Drax sai its offer for battery storage investment firm Harmony Energy Income Trust (HEIT) had lapsed following its decision not to increase the bid.
Drax had faced rival bidder Foresight Group which looks set to take over the investor in a deal that values it at £209.9m. HEIT's portfolio includes the Rusholme battery storage facility at Drax's North Yorkshire site, along with other locations in County Durham, Surrey and East Yorkshire, among others.
