Well it seems that ISYS is waiting for news...maybe it's round the corner !

SSA leads chase to buy Baan

2 May 2003 SSA Global Technologies will shortly conclude the purchase of Invensys' Baan software subsidiary, according to mounting rumours circulating in the City of London.

The revitalised enterprise resource planning (ERP) software vendor SSA GT is set to conclude a deal within weeks for Baan — and for radically less than the $708 million that Invensys, the troubled engineering conglomerate, paid for it in 2000.

SSA GT is awash with cash after raising $75 million from venture capital group General Atlantic Partners just last month. CEO Mike Greenough's plans to make SSA GT a $400 million company by July 2003 are well known. It even retains a head of acquisitions to research potential opportunities.

Both Baan and SSA GT were once top five ERP software vendors.

In April 2002, SSA bought the Interbiz ERP division of Computer Associates, but its revenues still run far short of Greenough's target. In the second fiscal quarter to the end of January 2003, the company posted revenues of $64 million, up 55% on the same period a year earlier.

System Software Associates (SSA) was one of the stars of the early enterprise resource planning (ERP) software sector, but sales collapsed dramatically in the mid-1990s following the botched introduction of new product.

Called BPCS 6, the package was bug-ridden and, before those bugs had been ironed out, the company tried to force users into upgrading. That led to a fall in sales and a crisis of confidence from which it never recovered.

It filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2000 and the assets were purchased by Gores Technology Group in July of that year. In May 2001, another venture capital investor, Cerberus, took a majority stake in the company.

NOW 283 PENCE

Great recovery and also still on an upward trend

It has a history of of falling from 500 to 100p in a couple of days. Can it reverse if shorters forced to close?

I think this will settle at around 300 pence,untill further news of sustained recovery

This baby has been quiet for too long.
Any news?

ISYS has now creeped up to 300p mark,where to next?,tempted to get out now as entry point was 18p and 20p,if i sell they will rocket to 350p 35 pre consolidation,need the money to cover losses on other dogs!

Any holders offer any advice,thx

I sold and regretted it as I think the company has turned around-figures due in Feb hence the steady creep. If they are good IMO there will be the same recovery in sp as in the Cookson situation. I'm strongly tempted to buy in again----on the other hand a profit is always worth taking if you have other uses for the money!!

moneyplus,thx and DONT!!

Be happy with your profit

Ulf Henriksson, Chief Executive Officer of Invensys plc, commented:

'I am pleased that we have made further overall progress in the
third quarter which has enabled us to report another good set of
results.

'Process Systems produced another strong performance. Rail Systems showed good
revenue growth although order intake was impacted by the phasing of Network Rail
project bookings in the UK. Controls produced another satisfactory result
despite the weakness in those businesses supplying the US new residential
construction market and I am encouraged that APV produced a profit for a fourth
consecutive quarter.

'Financing charges were significantly reduced due to the benefits of the 2006
Refinancing (3), resulting in a net profit in the quarter of 42 million
compared with a small loss in the third quarter last year. Operating cash flow,
although lower than last year, was strong at 56 million representing 100%
conversion.

'With the improved performance in the period and continued progress in achieving
a balance of results between quarters, the Board remains confident of a
satisfactory outturn for the financial year as a whole.'

Orders
Orders received in the quarter for continuing operations were unchanged at CER
at 630 million (Q3 2005/06: 658 million). Orders at Process Systems were up
15% at CER. Controls' reported orders were down 11% at CER but were down 6%
after adjusting for the previously announced loss of the EDF contract at IMServ
and the disposal of small contracting businesses. Rail Systems' order intake was
impacted by the phasing of Network Rail project bookings. A summary of orders
and movements at CER by business is set out below:

The order book for continuing operations was 2,038 million at 31 December 2006
compared to 2,073 million at 30 September 2006, representing no change at CER.

Revenue
Revenue in the quarter was 637 million (Q3 2005/06: 611 million), an increase
of 10% at CER. The Group has operations around the world and as a result has a
significant exposure to movements in foreign exchange rates and in particular to
the US dollar and euro. The translation effect of foreign exchange rates during
the quarter was a decrease in revenue of 31 million or 5%. A summary of revenue
and movements at CER by business is set out below:

Operating profit and margin
Operating profit before exceptional items was 56 million in the quarter (Q3
2005/06: 46 million), which represents an increase of 29% at CER. The
translation effect of foreign exchange rates during the quarter was a decrease
in operating profit before exceptional items of 1 million. Operating margin was
8.8% (Q3 2005/06: 7.5%); the lower margin in Q3 at Rail Systems was due to
normal differences in business mix. A summary of operating profit and movements
at CER by business is set out below:

Exceptional items
Exceptional items for continuing operations in the quarter were a net nil (Q3
2005/06: 12 million charge). This included restructuring costs of 1 million
(Q3 2005/06: 9 million) and a gain on the sale of other financial assets of 1
million (Q3 2005/06: nil). The prior year also included a 1 million charge to
property, plant and equipment impairment and a 2 million loss on sale of
operations.

Foreign exchange gains and losses
Foreign exchange gains in the quarter of 12 million (Q3 2005/06: 5 million
loss) relate to exchange differences arising on the translation of unhedged
foreign currency monetary items used in the financing of the Group and its
subsidiaries. These are principally attributable to exchange differences on the
Group's non-sterling denominated currency borrowings held in companies whose
functional currency is sterling. Of the exchange gains, 8 million arose on US
dollar borrowings and 4 million arose on euro borrowings.

The Group's hedging policy is determined by reference to the currency of the
underlying cash generation, ensuring, as far as possible, an economic hedge.
This results in an unhedged position under IAS 21.

Finance costs
Net finance costs in the quarter decreased to 12 million (Q3 2005/06: 30
million) reflecting the benefits of the 2006 Refinancing. In addition,
exceptional finance costs of 12 million arose on the partial redemption of the
principal amount of $180 million of High Yield Notes in November 2006,
comprising a 9 million premium paid on redemption and a 3 million write-off of
capitalised facility fees.

Taxation
The taxation charge for the quarter was 7 million (Q3 2005/06: 1 million)
based on an allocation of the estimated taxation charge for the full year.

Profit from discontinued operations
The profit from discontinued operations in the quarter comprises a taxation
credit of 9 million following the resolution of certain taxation issues in
Brazil and the US.

Net profit
The net profit for the quarter was 42 million (Q3 2005/06: 3 million loss),
after charging 12 million relating to the November 2006 High Yield Notes
redemption and after crediting a foreign exchange gain of 12 million.

Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share from continuing operations in the quarter were 4.0
pence (Q3 2005/06: 0.8 pence loss per share), calculated using the weighted
average number of shares in issue during the quarter of 796 million shares (Q3
2005/06: 609 million shares) and the profit after taxation and minority
interests for continuing operations of 32 million (Q3 2005/06: 5 million
loss).

Cash flow
Operating cash flow from continuing operations excluding legacy items in the
quarter was an inflow of 56 million (Q3 2005/06: 64 million), representing
cash conversion of 100% (Q3 2005/06: 139%). Free cash flow excluding legacy
items was an inflow of 43 million (Q3 2005/06: 47 million), after payment of
cash costs of 9 million relating to the partial redemption of High Yield
Notes in November 2006. Net debt at 31 December 2006 was 249 million (30
September 2006: 291 million).

Outlook
With the improved performance in the period and continued progress in achieving
a balance of results between quarters, the Board remains confident of a
satisfactory outturn for the financial year as a whole.

Developments
During the quarter, Controls continued to improve operational efficiency in
terms of delivery performance and product quality. The North American businesses
supplying smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and thermostats continue to be
impacted by the slowdown in the US new residential construction market. Markets
outside North America remained generally favourable. New product launches are
being well received by customers. Further selective price increases were
implemented across many product groups during the period and additional pricing
actions are planned in the final quarter.

Performance
In the quarter, reported orders of 166 million (Q3 2005/06: 198 million) were
down 11% at CER but were down 6% after adjusting for the previously announced
loss of the EDF contract at IMServ and the disposal of small contracting
businesses; this shortfall arose in North America due mainly to the slowdown in
the new residential construction market. Reported revenue of 179 million (Q3
2005/06: 200 million) was down 6% at CER but was up 1% after the above
adjustments, reflecting the benefit of price rises and new product launches
offset by the reduced revenue in the businesses supplying the US new residential
construction market.

Operating margin rose to 8.4% from 7.5% in the prior year mainly due to the
success of the continuing restructuring programme and the disposal of low margin
contracting businesses. Operating profit was 15 million in line with the
corresponding quarter last year. Operating cash inflow of 25 million (Q3 2005/
06: 18 million) was up by 41% at CER with a significant reduction in working
capital driven by improved receivables and reductions in inventory.

In the nine months, orders were down 5% at CER at 550 million (9M 2005/06: 592
million) but were up 3% after adjusting for the above contract loss and
disposals. Revenue was 4% lower at CER at 551 million (9M 2005/06: 583
million) but was up 4% after these adjustments. Operating profit fell to 43
million (9M 2005/06: 45 million), a decrease of 3% at CER but an improvement of
13% after the above adjustments. Operating margin improved slightly to 7.8% (9M
2005/06: 7.7%). Operating cash inflow was 23 million (9M 2005/06: 37 million)
which was similar to last year after adjusting for the above contract loss and
disposals.

Developments
Process Systems had another good quarter reflecting the continuing strong end
markets, particularly oil and gas and power generation, and the benefits of its
recent investment in technology and sales and marketing. Regional market growth
continues in Asia, and the Middle East has seen a recent increase in projected
capital spending driven by the continued high oil price. Orders from the seven
global key accounts were up 9% in the quarter and 24% in the nine months.

InFusionTM, the recently launched enterprise control system that enables the
integration of all plant floor systems with an enterprise's business information
systems, continues to attract considerable interest from customers and gained
several significant contract wins in the quarter from, for example, Bechtel in
the US, AGIP KCO in Kazakhstan, Ratnagiri Gas and Power in India and the Tuketo
Power Plant in China.

At the December North American customer conference attended by nearly 600
customer participants, product enhancements were launched to the TriconexTM
safety system and the AvantisTM asset management system.

In January 2007, Paulett Eberhart joined the group as CEO and President of
Invensys Process Systems. Paulett was previously with EDS, the global technology
services company, which she joined in 1978. She held a number of senior roles
within EDS, latterly as President of its largest operating unit, the Americas,
which had revenues in excess of $8 billion.

Performance
Orders for the quarter rose 15% at CER to 218 million (Q3 2005/06: 200
million) with particularly strong growth in Asia Pacific where orders grew by
45% at CER driven primarily by China, ASEAN and South Korea.

Revenue increased by 16% at CER to 200 million (Q3 2005/06: 183 million) with
strong growth seen in all regions driven primarily by strong backlog conversion.
Revenue in Asia Pacific was up 42% at CER due to the execution of several major
projects in ASEAN and South Korea. North America was up 12% at CER attributable
to both project backlog conversion and an increase in Foxboro DCS (distributed
controls systems) upgrade orders within its customer service business.

Operating profit rose 38% at CER to 28 million (Q3 2005/06: 22 million). The
operating margin improved significantly to 14.0% (Q3 2005/06: 12.0%). The
increase in operating margin was driven by two primary factors, namely
incremental margin realised on higher factory shipments within the products
businesses and higher volumes and margin improvements in both the Asia Pacific
and EMEA regions. An operating cash inflow of 14 million was generated (Q3 2005
/06:17 million). The reduction in cash conversion is mainly due to the timing
of receipts on a number of long term contracts.

For the nine months, orders rose to 628 million (9M 2005/06: 565 million), up
13% at CER, with strong growth seen in all regions. In particular, Asia Pacific
orders grew by 37% at CER driven primarily by the Reliance expansion project in
Jamnagar, India, as well as growth in ASEAN on several large projects. Revenue
for the nine months of 563 million (9M 2005/06: 522 million) increased by 10%
at CER driven by Asia Pacific. Operating profit rose to 71 million (9M 2005/06:
51 million), a 43% increase at CER. The operating margin improved significantly
to 12.6% (9M 2005/06: 9.8%). An operating cash inflow of 39 million was
generated (9M 2005/06: 27 million), primarily attributable to the higher
operating profit.

Developments
Rail Systems had a satisfactory quarter with good revenue growth. Markets have
remained generally favourable although its US business has not yet seen the
expected increase in orders for rail crossings following the signing of the
Transportation Bill due to customers continuing to focus investment into
capacity enhancements.

Performance
Orders for the quarter fell to 112 million (Q3 2005/06: 133 million), down 13%
at CER. UK orders were impacted by delays in finalising contracts with Network
Rail but all other businesses recorded increased orders compared with the
corresponding period last year.

Revenue of 131 million (Q3 2005/06: 103 million) was 33% higher at CER,
primarily due to improved levels of activity in the UK. Revenue also increased
in Spain and Australia reflecting the recent improvement in orders.

Operating profit was 18 million (Q3 2005/06: 18 million), translating into an
increase of 6% at CER reflecting the improvement in revenue offset by a normal
change in business mix. Operating margin was 13.7% (Q3 2005/06: 17.5%) bringing
year to date margins to 15.0%. Cash generation remained strong with an operating
cash inflow of 27 million (Q3 2005/06: 29 million), with conversion of
operating profit to operating cash in excess of 100% in both periods.

Orders for the nine months rose to 397 million (9M 2005/06: 373 million), up
7% at CER, driven by strong orders in Spain and Australia. The nine month
book-to-bill was 105% despite delayed contract awards in the UK. Revenue of 379
million (9M 2005/06: 302 million) was 27% higher at CER with all businesses
showing revenue growth, in particular from mainline and transit activities in
the UK and Spain.

In the nine months, operating profit rose to 57 million (9M 2005/06: 41
million), an increase of 40% at CER reflecting the significant increase in
revenue. The operating margin improved to 15.0% (9M 2005/06: 13.6%) benefiting
from higher revenue and an improved sales mix. An operating cash inflow of 115
million was generated (9M 2005/06: 66 million). Cash flow remains strong with
the year on year improvement driven by improved operating profit, strong
receipts on long term contracts and effective management of inventories and
receivables.

Developments
APV had another satisfactory quarter as it benefited from continued efforts to
improve performance. Product, spares and services (PSS) revenue continues to
grow as a proportion of its total business and the project business is now
achieving a consistent improvement in performance. During the quarter, an
additional production facility was opened in Poland.

The pricing and shortage of certain raw materials continues to constrain APV. In
particular, the shortage of titanium has slowed what otherwise would have been a
strong growth in orders for industrial plate heat exchangers. Discussions with
suppliers have been progressing with additional supplies secured, enabling APV
to accept new customer orders in the quarter. Further investment has been made
in a new plate component that will open up a new sector of the industrial market
for APV as well as providing more efficient usage of titanium.

Performance
Orders for the quarter rose to 106 million (Q3 2005/06: 99 million), up 14% at
CER, driven by large project wins in North America and Europe; this has been
partially offset by lower PSS orders driven by the titanium shortage. Revenue of
100 million (Q3 2005/06: 96 million) was 9% higher at CER, primarily due to
good growth in PSS revenue in both industrial and non-industrial sectors and
project revenue growth in Europe, North America and China.

Operating profit rose to 2 million (Q3 2005/06: 4 million loss). This was
driven by the growth in PSS revenue, improvement in executed project margins and
strong factory pull through. The operating margin improved to 2.0% (Q3 2005/06:
(4.2)%) predominantly due to better project execution. An operating cash inflow
of 1 million was generated, compared to 3 million in Q3 2005/06.

In the nine months, orders rose to 339 million (9M 2005/06: 323 million), up
7% at CER and revenue was also 7% higher at CER at 295 million (9M 2005/06:
281 million). Operating profit rose to 10 million (9M 2005/06: 2 million
loss) and the operating margin improved to 3.4% (9M 2005/06: (0.7)%). An
operating cash outflow of 5 million was generated, compared to breakeven last
year.

Developments
Eurotherm continues to reshape its business model aimed at capturing market
growth and reducing its cost base. In the quarter, the first shipments of
product from its new Polish facility were made with further transfers of product
ranges scheduled to follow over the coming months. Negotiations are also taking
place with suppliers regarding transferring part of current manufacturing into
the supply chain.

Performance
Orders for the quarter were unchanged at 28 million (Q3 2005/06: 28 million)
but rose 9% at CER after taking into account the loss of the motor drives
distribution agreement in Q3 2005/06. Revenue of 27 million (Q3 2005/06: 29
million) was 5% lower at CER, primarily due to the decline in motor drives
revenue compared to the prior year.

Operating profit fell to 2 million (Q3 2005/06: 3 million). The operating
margin fell to 7.4% (Q3 2005/06: 10.3%). Both declines were predominantly caused
by the lost overall contribution caused by the reduced motor drives revenue. An
operating cash inflow of 2 million was generated in the quarter, which was in
line with the cash inflow of 2 million in Q3 2005/06.

Orders for the nine months fell to 83 million (9M 2005/06: 87 million), down
4% at CER but rose by 5% at CER taking into account the loss of the motor drives
distribution agreement. Revenue of 80 million (9M 2005/06: 87 million) was 7%
lower at CER, primarily due to a 9 million reduction in motor drives revenue.
Operating profit fell to 8 million (9M 2005/06: 10 million), a decrease of 18%
at CER and operating margin fell to 10.0% (9M 2005/06: 11.5%). An operating cash
inflow of 9 million was generated, compared to 8 million in the same period
last year.

4 Foreign exchange gains/(losses)

Foreign exchange gains in the quarter of 12 million (Q3 2005/06: losses of 5
million) relate to exchange differences arising on the translation of unhedged
foreign currency monetary items used in the financing of the Group and its
subsidiaries. These are principally attributable to exchange differences on the
Group's non-sterling denominated currency borrowings held in companies whose
functional currency is sterling.

Of the exchange gains in the quarter, 8 million arose on dollar borrowings and
4 million arose on euro borrowings.

These foreign currency borrowings are held as an economic hedge by reference to
the Group's underlying cash generation by currency. However, they are not
accounted for as net investment hedges under IAS 39 and consequently exchange
differences arising on these borrowings are recorded in the income statement.

The directors consider that the best measure of the Group's cash performance is
free cash flow excluding legacy items as calculated above.

Legacy items relate to payments and receipts in respect of legacy liabilities.
These liabilities are specific liabilities that were classified as such at the
time of the Group's refinancing in 2004. These legacy liabilities comprise
pension funding obligations, environmental matters arising prior to March 2004,
tax due from or in respect of years ending prior to March 2004, litigation and
other settlements of actions or potential action, each arising prior to March
2004 and transition costs in connection with the reshaping of the Group in early
2003.

The basic earnings/(loss) per share for the quarter has been calculated using
796 million shares (Q3 2005/06: 609 million), being the weighted average number
of shares in issue during the quarter and the profit/(loss) after taxation and
minority interests for continuing operations, discontinued operations and total
Group as shown above.

Earnings/(loss) per share is also calculated by reference to earnings before
exceptional items, exceptional finance costs and foreign exchange gains and
losses with an underlying tax charge of 7 million for continuing operations (Q3
2005/06: 3 million), since the directors consider that this gives a useful
additional indication of underlying performance.

The diluted earnings/(loss) per share has been calculated in accordance with IAS
33, Earnings per Share without reference to adjustments in respect of certain
share options which are considered to be anti-dilutive.

There have been no other transactions involving ordinary shares or potential
ordinary shares between the reporting date and the date of completion of this
quarterly report.

*Comparative figures for the weighted average number of shares have been
restated after adjusting for the bonus element of the 2 for 5 Rights Issue and
the share consolidation of one 10p share for every ten 1p shares in July 2006.
The adjustment factor for the Rights Issue is 1.070588 calculated using 19.75p
per share, being the closing price on 6 July 2006.

Thats me out as of today,not letting greed get in my way of taking profits to pay for losses elswhere,good luck to those that stay in.

Does anyone know what's going on with this share price, despite the 1Q results.

This was cheap at 420 two month ago. Oil has been higher, no serious sub-prime problem etc. Why is it so low?

Higher oil price should improve orders and margin further.

It should start to move nicely by year end.

Invensys should follow the same direction as FTO. 50% rise in a couple of days till the results.

I was expecting much better peformance by now!

INvensy should play an important role in these. ISYS has long term contracts with bgy.

Future projection is much better than currently expected in the sector. http://www.moneyam.com/action/news/showArticle?id=2579624

This is still 50% lower than its peak. Amost no debt with good profit... Funny market IMO

The higher the oil price the better for Invensys orders. Invensys collaboration with BGY is getting more important now given oil at $100... IMO
