DESCRIPTION: ABSTRACT: We present an updated analysis of the first-order p
 hase transition associated with symmetry breaking in the early Universe in
  a classically scale-invariant model extended with a new SU(2) gauge group
 . Including recent developments in understanding supercooled phase transit
 ions\, we compute all of its characteristics and significantly constrain t
 he parameter space. We then predict gravitational-wave spectra generated d
 uring this phase transition and by computing the signal-to-noise ratio we 
 conclude that this model is well testable (and falsifiable) with LISA. We 
 also provide predictions for the relic dark matter abundance. It is consis
 tent with observations in a rather narrow part of the parameter space\, as
  we exclude the so-called supercool dark matter scenario based on an impro
 ved description of percolation and reheating after the phase transition as
  well as inclusion of the running of couplings. Finally\, we pay special a
 ttention to renormalisation-scale dependence of the results and even thoug
 h our main results are obtained with the use of renormalisation-group impr
 oved effective potential\, we also present the outcome of a fixed-scale an
 alysis. It proves that the dependence on the scale is not only qualitative
  but also quantitative.
