    Dowlais Group decreased 8% to 53.85 pence after the UK-based automotive parts maker reported a wider loss in the first half and the company lowered its annual revenue outlook. 

    Valneva SE increased 5.2% to €3.23, and the French biotech company's net income in the first half swung to profit and confirmed its annual revenue outlook. 

    Brenntag SE declined 1% to €63.22, and the German chemical distributor lowered its full-year estimate. 

    Evotec SE gained 3.4% to €5.58, and the German drug maker achieved a significant milestone in its partnership with Bristol Myers Squibb, triggering a performance-based payment of $75 million.
