Proactive - Interviews for investors

Huddled Group PLC (AIM:HUD) CEO Martin Higginson speaks to Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s growth trajectory and strategy to combat surplus stock waste. Higginson discussed how Huddled Group focuses on preventing surplus stock from going to waste through its three brands: Discount Dragon, Nutricircle, and Boop Beauty. Each brand specialises in providing discounted products, including food, protein supplements, and beauty products, to customers.

Higginson highlighted the 123% revenue growth in H1 2024, largely driven by Discount Dragon, and shared plans for the upcoming period. He also provided insights into the recent acquisition of Nutricircle and Boop Beauty, both of which align with the company’s mission of saving waste while offering consumers high-quality products. Furthermore, investment in stock, marketing, and centralized fulfilment is set to improve operations ahead of the busy Q4 period. As Huddled Group continues to grow, it is focusing on driving repeat customer rates across its brands.

"The larger we grow, the more stock we can buy, and therefore the better the margins," said Higginson, as he outlined future plans for operational profitability.

Empire Metals Ltd (AIM:EEE) managing director Shaun Bunn joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the successful capital raise of £2.5 million and other recent developments surrounding the Pitfield Project in Western Australia.

Bunn said the oversubscribed placing brings Empire's total cash balance to £4.8 million. These funds will be used to accelerate drilling and metallurgical test work, particularly focusing on the high-purity anatase discovered at surface level.

Bunn emphasised the unique advantages of Pitfield, describing it as a giant-scale, high-grade, soft rock titanium deposit, which requires no stripping of overburden. He explained that the anatase mineral found at Pitfield, a variant of rutile, holds significant commercial potential, and the team is optimistic about the metallurgical separation processes.

Looking ahead, Bunn mentioned that metallurgical test results will be announced shortly, and he remains focused on strategic development plans. He believes Empire Metals is well-positioned to deliver a critical metals company in a tier-one jurisdiction.
