(Sharecast News) - London's FTSE 100 was 0.1% higher at 9,311.63 in afternoon trade on Tuesday.
Building materials provider CRH shot to the top of the index as it reaffirmed its full-year guidance and set out financial targets over the next five years.
In a statement ahead of its investor day in New York, the company said it still expects 2025 adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation of between $7.5bn and $7.7bn.
For 2026 to 2030, it expects average annual revenue growth of between 7% and 9%, an adjusted EBITDA margin of between 22% and 24% and average annual adjusted free cash flow conversion of more than 100%.
On the downside, BT Group was the biggest loser after a downgrade to 'neutral' from 'buy' at New Street Research.
Oil giants BP and Shell both fell as oil prices continued to move lower.
