The S&P/ASX 300 Index (ASX: XKO) is heading south today, breaking the week's consecutive days in green territory.

At the time of writing, the ASX 300 is down 0.64% to 7,383.5 points.

Here's a summary of which ASX shares are topping the charts today.

FINEOS Corp Holdings PLC (ASX: FCL)

The FINEOS share price is up a mammoth 16.98% to $4.30 following the company's release of its full-year results.

The insurance software company highlighted robust growth, driven by its subscription revenues. In total, FINEOS achieved revenue of €108.3 million (A$175.41 million), up 23.3% on FY20.

The company did not include a dividend payment for the FY21 year.

City Chic Collective Ltd (ASX: CCX)

Another significant mover today is the City Chic share price, up 14.26% to an all-time high of $6.25. The fashion retailer released its full-year results, announcing strong revenue of $258.5 million, up 32.9% on FY20. This was underpinned by online sales growth of $184.6 million, up 49.3%.

No dividend was stated for the second half of the FY21 period.

Blackmores Ltd (ASX: BKL)

Following suit, the Blackmores price is up 11.34% to a 52-week high of $88.84.

The strong rise in Blackmores shares comes as the company provided its full-year results to the market. The health supplements business reported positive numbers despite operating in a changing COVID-19 environment.

The company is set to reward eligible shareholders with a fully-franked dividend payment of 42 cents per share.

And the ASX 300 companies moving the other way?

Appen Ltd (ASX: APX)

Falling heavily is the Appen share price, down a massive 20.77% to $10.95.

The artificial intelligence data services company released its half-year results for the FY21 period, registering disappointing numbers across key metrics. Most notably, Appen's net profit after tax fell 55.1% to US$6.7 million. 

The board decided to maintain its 50% franked interim dividend of 4.5 cents per share.

Also in decline is the Link share price, down 12.43% to $4.51.

The administration services company dropped its full-year results to the market, recording losses due to COVID-19 headwinds. In addition, European business and regulatory changes in its Retirement and Superannuation Solutions (RRS) business brought in lower revenues.

Link declared a fully franked dividend of 5.5 cents per share, up 4.5 cents in H1 FY21.
