Coleen Rooney has seen the value of her stake in a protein powder and supplement firm surge after the firm’s stock jumped on the back of an upbeat trading update.
Applied Nutrition sales in the six months to the end of January soared 57 per cent to £47.6miller.
Earnings for the period were ‘ahead of management expectations’.
The FTSE 250 group, which listed in a £350million float in 2024, said it expects its performance for its full year to the end of July to be better than City forecasts, which predict earnings of £37.7million and sales of £133.5million.
Shares jumped 6.2 per cent, or 15p, to 256.5p – just shy of last month’s record close of 259.5p – having listed at 140p.
The rally is a boost for media personality Rooney after she doubled her investment in the company last week.
