Following the cancellation of these shares, the company’s issued share capital stands at 112,190,334 ordinary shares, all carrying voting rights and with no shares held in treasury.

Oxford Metrics’ overall stock score is driven by strong technical momentum and a stable financial position, despite profitability challenges. The attractive dividend yield provides some compensation for the negative P/E ratio. The absence of earnings call data and corporate events limits further insights.
