The impressive growth rate reflects a 62% increase in comparison to the six months to June 2021, when £53m of new loan facilities were written. These figures are in line with expectations. Management remain focused on the maintenance of robust institutional grade credit processes whilst continuing to deliver growth.

SDX Energy 10.4p £21.2m (SDX.L)
The MENA-focused energy company provides an update on the testing of its gas discovery at the MA-1X well that targeted the Mohsen prospect, within the Exploration Extension Area of South Disouq. The MA-1X (SDX WI: 67%) discovery, announced on 8 June, is currently in the process of being tested. As expected, the well test showed good flow rates of c. 8.0 MMscf/d commensurate with the high quality Kafr El Sheikh Formation reservoir around the well bore, which has an average porosity of 31.9%. However, the well-head pressure decline observed over a three-day production test was higher than expected, which could indicate that a lower volume of gas is connected to the MA-1X well bore compared to pre-drill estimates. Whilst this does not change the Company’s estimate of overall gas in place in the discovery, it may indicate that there is a change in facies closer than expected to the MA-1X well bore that could be compartmentalising the gas to some extent. The Company is currently undertaking a pressure build up test and will obtain the relevant data from down hole gauges early next week, the results of which will be available in the coming weeks.
