Anyone watching the explosive performance
Here's a comment on another board
TRAINSPOTTER - 20 May'08 - 21:18 - 35 of 56
should MDM convert potential projects Kariba, Ezulwini, Kalagadi, Algeria Gold and Lily Mine into actual projects then the forecast EPS for FY 09 is around 100p. At current prices that's a forecast per of, well work it out for yourselves! Zero leverage as well.
Average sector per stands around 15-20. With MDM forecast to grow earnings by triple digit %'s into 09 and 2010 the scope for further price appreciation is excellent. ON a per of 10 for 2009 should be between 500-1000p assuming 10 for best case scenario of all above project secured.

I had the impression yesterday that the rise was a little overdone as from 10am sp didn't move. Lets see how far it retraces befor it starts to gather more momentum.

With eps possibly being upgraded to 95p (Edison website if feas studies goto work) then you work out the PE! only about 2, put this on a PE of 10 and youre looking at 10. At least. dunno know if we get there but lets see.

I am quite surprised with sp at the moment it won't budge despite 3 days of mostly buys. Surely it must be ready to move very shortly.

NEXT PHASE OF KALAGADI MANGANESE PROJECT
MDM Engineering Group Limited (AIM:MDM) is pleased to announce that it has commenced work on the Front-End Engineering and Design ('FEED') phase of the Kalagadi Manganese (Proprietary) Limited's ('Kalagadi Manganese') Umtu Sinter Plant project at Hotazel, South Africa. The Company is also currently engaging with Kalagadi on various other matters.
To date MDM Engineering has completed a Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS) for Kalagadi Manganese, and the FEED project represents a continuation of that process, which will incorporate a Control Budget Estimate (CBE) in order to take advantage of the current environment of weaker commodity prices. The BFS completed during 2008 had a value of ZAR 3.5 Billion.
MDM Engineering's Chief Executive Grant Lowman commented:
'This is a significant step forward in the development of the Kalagadi Manganese project. We look forward to assisting Kalagadi Manganese with the development of this major project which will be the first BEE (black economic empowerment) grass roots mining project developed and controlled by women in South Africa.'

Overview
The 2009 year has been one of significant growth for MDM as evidenced by the growth in earnings. Net profit for the year showed an increase of 144% to US$7.8 million (2008: US$ 3.2 million) with earnings per share showing an increase of 63% to US21.15 cents (2008: US12.94 cents). This was mainly driven by the increase and peaking of the current execution projects under MDM's management. MDM has continued to maintain a strong gross profit margin of 46% (2008: 50%) for the year under review.
The Group's balance sheet has been enhanced with the equity attributable to its shareholders increasing by US$11.4 million to US$15.9 million. The increase resulted from funds raised at the Group's listing in May 2008 as well as the cash generated by operations over the last financial year.
The Group's cash generated by operations increased by 42% to US$5.8 million (2008: US$4.1 million) after taking a taxation payment of US$4.4 million into account. This is further evidence of the cash generative nature of MDM's business. The balance sheet shows strong cash on hand at year end to the value of US$13.9 million.
Summary of Financial Results
Consolidated net earnings for the 12 month period to the 31st March 2009 was US$7.8million, which equates to basic earnings per share of US21.15 cents.
The Directors of MDM Engineering have declared a final dividend of US7.5 cents per share payable on the 10th of August 2009 to shareholders registered on the 17th of July 2009. This is in line with the stated dividend policy whereby approximately 50% of earnings will be paid out as a dividend.
MDM Engineering CEO Grant Lowman commented:
'The growth in profits over the year in such a tough operating environment is a satisfying result for MDM and testament to our business model and the hard work and dedication of the team. While we have felt the impact of the global economic crisis through the stalling and cancellation of mining projects over the last six months, whilst we are seeing some activity pick up, the commodity market will probably continue to reflect difficult trading conditions for some time: we are well placed to capitalise on a recovery in the sector when it occurs.
