Bridgepoint’s daily close over the month to today, with today’s session marked.
The previous high was 351.5p, and the shares have now cleared it. Today’s rise ranks seventh among the past 126 sessions, so a gain of this size has happened before within the past six months.
Today’s gain set against six months of daily share price changes.
What was behind it
It was reported today from reputable outlets that Bridgepoint raised its 2026 EBITDA guidance (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) after a third-quarter revaluation of ProEnergy, an asset in its Energy Capital Partners V fund. The company holds a 13% share of the fund’s carried interest, the performance fee paid when investments do well. The company said the revaluation lifts its 2026 performance related earnings and EBITDA above current consensus.
