Gordon Brown virtually handed it a golden handshake yesterday with his budget speech. Grants to be extended to more pensioners and others and grant limit raised. Dont miss it.

INTENTION TO SEEK ADMISSION TO TRADING ON

THE OFFICIAL LIST OF THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE



eaga (the Company), the UK market leader in the delivery of residential energy
efficiency solutions, today announces its intention to seek admission to trading
on the main market of the London Stock Exchange in 2007.

eaga has a proven track record in delivering outsourced programmes aimed at
eradicating fuel poverty in vulnerable households. In recent years eaga has
diversified its offering to become a significant provider of household energy
efficiency measures under the Energy Efficiency Commitment (EEC), and is a
significant player in the local authority and social housing sector. eaga has
developed a scalable infrastructure upon which it intends to capitalise on the
substantial opportunities that management expects to exist in government and
outsourcing, domestic energy efficiency, and social housing markets going
forward.

Brewin Dolphin Securities has been appointed as Sponsor and Broker to the
Company. The flotation is intended to be achieved by means of placing of shares
to institutional investors.

eaga has delivered energy efficiency measures to over 5 million UK homes, lifted
several million vulnerable people out of fuel poverty. Every day eaga improves
insulation in over 500 homes. The company also fits or repairs a central heating
system every minute of every working day.

Management, led by Chief Executive John Clough, has an excellent track record
which has seen revenues increase from inception in 1990 to a current year
forecast of 500m. Excellent profit growth and cash generation has enabled eaga
to achieve impressive organic growth. In recent years this has been supplemented
by key acquisitions that have increased eaga's delivery capability, broadened
its market exposure, and further enhanced eaga's profitability.

Commenting on the announcement, John Clough, Chief Executive, said:

'We are pleased to announce the intended flotation of eaga. Over the last
sixteen years we have built a very successful business and are now the UK's
largest provider of residential energy efficiency solutions. We have been
providing end-to-end solutions to serious environmental and social issues such
as the elimination of fuel poverty for many years. We are now an emerging force
in providing solutions to climate change challenges. The proposed flotation will
provide the company with the financial flexibility required to fund the next
phase of growth. It will also enable some of the existing shareholders
(principally the Employee Benefit Trust) to realise a proportion of their
respective investments.'

eaga's future revenue prospects are strongly supported by the Government's
environmental, energy and social policy commitments. eaga plans to extend its
services to become a leading residential infrastructure service provider by
broadening its local authority and social housing offering, extending its
aftercare services and able to pay central heating offering and capturing
further government and outsourcing delivery opportunities.

Notes to editors:

1. Introduction

eaga is a UK market leader in the delivery of residential improvements in the
environmental, energy efficiency and social justice arenas. eaga's core focus
is working with government, local authorities and utility companies to lower
carbon emissions, combat fuel poverty and reduce energy consumption. The work
undertaken is principally focussed on the housing and social needs of low income
and vulnerable households.

eaga is based on a partnership structure and is 100% employee owned by two
employee trusts (eaga has two Employee Benefits Trusts (EBT) which sit at the
head of the employee owned partnership, holding shares in trust for the benefit
of all partners). The company has grown rapidly in recent years, building strong
relationships with its customers by:

developing a leading position as a significant deliverer of UK
governments' fuel poverty programmes, underpinned by over 15 years'
experience of dealing with the most vulnerable groups in society;

working closely with utility companies to support delivery of their
Energy Efficiency Commitment (under the Energy Efficiency Commitment
electricity and gas suppliers are required to achieve targets for the
promotion of improvements in domestic energy efficiency);and

undertaking key strategic actions to broaden activities throughout the
energy efficiency and home services supply chain, further embedding eaga
as an integrated supplier in its chosen markets, in particular the
social housing sector.

eaga's portfolio of products and services covers the provision of energy surveys
and advice, allocation and administration of energy efficiency funding,
installation of central heating systems, cavity wall and loft insulation,
renewable energy and a number of other ancillary products and services,
including insurance-backed aftercare provision.









2. Key Strengths

The Directors believe that eaga is in an excellent position to pursue the
significant opportunities developing in the environmental, energy efficiency and
social justice arenas, principally due to the following:

eaga has a strong and trusted reputation in both the public and
private sectors as an established and successful operator;

eaga is led by a highly experienced management team;

eaga has a strong visibility of earnings, with an order book currently
standing at 1.5 billion, arising from a number of significant
contracts in both the fuel poverty and social housing sectors;

eaga's leading position in a largely fragmented installation
marketplace makes the Company well-positioned to take advantage of
attractive consolidation opportunities;

eaga's national delivery infrastructure is well established and
provides a barrier to potential new market entrants;

over 7.2 million has been invested in developing eaga's industry
leading IT systems and infrastructure over the last 2 years. This IT
platform has not only provided the business with scalability it has
also been recognised by the National Audit Office as an example of best
practice and would therefore allow scope for diversification into
new business areas; and

eaga has a strong financial track record of growth with excellent
profits and significant cash generation.

3. Proposed Placing

The proposed placing will raise proceeds on behalf of existing shareholders,
principally the Employee Benefit Trusts.

4. History

eaga was established in 1990 as a privately-owned company, the Energy Action
Grants Agency Limited, to lead Government funded efforts to improve the living
conditions of vulnerable people living in cold, damp and energy inefficient
homes. John Clough has been Chief Executive of eaga since 1990.

Until 2004, the business developed largely organically through focus on market
penetration and diversification as new market opportunities were identified.
Late 2004 and early 2005 saw a change in the development of eaga, marked in
particular by the successful re-tender for Warm Front. This was followed by the
acquisition in April 2005 of Mico Group, a leading insulation services provider,
which complemented eaga's existing business, enabling it to become integrated
into the supply chain and gain a foothold in the EEC market as a leading UK
installer of residential insulation products.

The business continued to expand and in May 2006 acquired Everwarm Group,
Scotland's largest installer of domestic insulation and an installer of central
heating systems.

eaga started a pilot scheme in 2003 to develop an in-house central heating
installation business, which was further developed to deliver heating systems
under the most recent Warm Front contract from early 2005. Since the beginning
of 2005, eaga has developed its central heating installation capacity
organically from a zero base to around 300 installation engineers generating
turnover of approximately 36 million.

In December 2006, eaga sought to build on its internal skills base and build its
position as a major player in the social housing heating sector through the
acquisitions of; White Horse Group, whose major trading arm is HEAT, and of JD
Heating. HEAT specialises in the design, installation and maintenance of
domestic central heating in the social housing market sector within Great
Britain, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. JD Heating specialises
in servicing and installing domestic central heating systems in the West
Midlands. These two acquisitions together have doubled the size of eaga's
heating operation.

In addition to these key strategic acquisitions, eaga has also completed a
number of smaller complementary acquisitions and strategic alliances with the
aim of driving profitability and further strengthening market position. This has
included the acquisition in November 2005 of an insurance intermediary business
authorised by the Financial Services Authority.

It is intended in due course that the Company will review its brand strategy
across the UK with a view to streamlining the range of identities under which it
currently trades.

eaga is now structured into three core sectors, Government Contracts,
Installation Services and Specialist Support Services, comprising six divisions:
Government Contracts, Heating, Home Services, Specialist Business Services,
Shared Services and Insurance.

Good to see they've appointed JPMorgan Cazenove as joint broker too.

More importantly, they must be one of the very few who talk about next year in terms of confidence and strength.

positive results out today, with a positive outlook for next year.

hlyeo98 on 11th June wrote: "It is losing its grip on the 100p level...prepare for another slide." As usual, how very insightful. But I'm not sure a 60% rise in the share price in less than three months qualifies as a slide. And the future's looking good as well:

Eaga swung to a full year pretax profit and said it is confident that the company will continue its growth and make substantial progress in the year to May 2009. For the year to end-May, the green support services company reported a pretax profit of 28.4 million pounds from a loss of 87.4 million pounds, a year earlier as revenues grew 32 percent to 639.0 million pounds. Its balance sheet remains net cash positive.

Chairman Charles Berry said: 'With the scale of environmental challenges set alongside wider global economic pressures, advancing technological change and growing social need; the opportunities for Eaga are both significant and long-term. The drivers within Eaga's core markets remain positive.'

The company has declared a final dividend of 2 pence per share, giving a total dividend for the year of 3 pence per share.
