Light Science Technologies: Margins up, Injectaclad in — and 40,000 buildings still to treat

Light Science Technologies Holdings PLC (AIM:LST, FRA:9FD) CEO Simon Deacon joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss a transformational year, with gross margins up 11.5%, AgTech revenues rising 18%, and 14 new electronics clients added. The standout development was the full acquisition of Injectaclad, which Deacon called "transformational" — with around 40,000 UK buildings still requiring passive fire protection remediation, the opportunity stretches 10 to 15 years ahead. Regulatory improvements at the Building Safety Regulator are expected to release a backlog of approvals in the second half of 2026. With a £6.6 million fundraise strengthening the balance sheet, the company is targeting defence, healthcare and medical in electronics, and international expansion in AgTech through reseller networks.
