1. Genus PLC Broker Sees FTSE 100 Potential

House broker Panmure Liberum has upgraded its outlook for Genus PLC, forecasting that the animal genetics group could join the FTSE 100 index by the end of the decade. In its latest research note, the broker highlighted that trading conditions in the PIC pork division have remained robust for three consecutive quarters, with year-on-year volume growth of 8% in China and 6% in Latin America during the first half of Genus’s 2026 financial year. The division also benefited from a 5% increase in average selling prices across key export markets, driven by strong demand for high-health genetics. Panmure Liberum cited an improved operating margin in PIC of 18.5%, up from 16.2% a year earlier, and expects full-year adjusted operating profit to exceed consensus by 10%.

2. Genius Group Launches Model Future School

Genius Group Limited has inaugurated its first Genius School at ProEd Global School in Bali, Indonesia, following the acquisition of a 51% stake in ProEd on November 10, 2025. The Model Future School comprises primary, middle and secondary programs designed around eight Future Skills identified in the World Economic Forum’s 2020 White Paper: global citizenship, innovation, technology, interpersonal skills, personalized learning, inclusive access, problem-based collaboration and lifelong learning. The school integrates AI-powered toolkits for self-awareness and personalized pathways, and offers weekend Genius Camps that reached an initial enrolment of 200 students in January. CEO Roger James Hamilton projects the Bali campus to break even within 12 months, leveraging Cambridge accreditation and targeting expansion to three additional Asia Pacific locations by 2028. Genius Group serves over 6 million users across more than 100 countries through its broader digital marketplace of AI training and Bitcoin-first education solutions.
