SILVERDELL, Asbestos Remedial and Consultancy. 'Where theres muck theres money'. (SID)     

goldfinger - 08 Jan 2007 11:42

Ive just come across this one in the last few days and have been very impressed by what I have seen so far. Hardly had a mention in the market world and floated middle of last year.

As a good and proven management team , looks cheap on fundies and is acquiring quality bolt ons in the fragmented market it serves.

Chart looks very sound and the company is profitable.

Fundies are...

P/E of just over 14 to end of Sept 2007 and a P/E of just over 11 and a PEG of 0.5 to end of sept 2008.

Looks very much like a new Worthington Nicholls.

Very similar to the admission document...

goldfinger - 01 Aug 2007 23:16 - 172 of 213

Looks like a cracking deal to me..

Silverdell PLC
01 August 2007

1 August 2007


Silverdell Plc
('Silverdell' or the 'Company')

Acquisition of Kitsons Group Limited ('Kitsons')


Silverdell Plc, a leading UK supplier of asbestos contracting and consultancy
services, today announces the acquisition (the 'Acquisition') of the entire
issued share capital of Kitsons, a well established industrial asbestos
contracting business, for a total consideration of 14m on a 'debt free, cash
free' basis, thereby creating a truly nationwide specialist asbestos services
provider.

The consideration will be satisfied as follows: 4m drawn from an existing
facility with Barclays Bank; 8m from an equity placing of 5.33m new ordinary
shares at 150 pence per share to institutional investors; and 2m to be
satisfied by the issue of 1.33m new ordinary shares at 150 pence per share. The
new ordinary shares issued in connection with the Acquisition and the placing
will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares and are
expected to be admitted to trading on AIM at 0800 on 1 August 2007. Expenses
relating to the Acquisition will be met from existing cash resources.

The audited accounts of Kitsons Environmental Europe Limited, Kitsons's trading
subsidiary, for the year ended 31 December 2006 show turnover of 18.7m (2005:
16.6m), EBITDA of 1.7m (2005: 0.8m) and EBIT of 1.5m (2005: 0.6m). The
consideration of 14m payable at completion represents a multiple of 2006 EBITDA
of 8.2.

Kitsons provides asbestos removal, insulation and scaffolding services to the
nuclear, petrochemical and retail sectors, among others. Kitsons's blue chip
customer base includes an oil major, leading UK utilities, major building
contractors as well as local authorities. Kitsons has a 3 year asbestos licence
and a hazardous waste carrying permit as well as ISO 9001, 14001 and 18001
accreditations. A significant proportion of Kitsons's revenue is underpinned by
long term agreements.

Kitsons has approximately 270 staff and is head quartered in Warrington with
regional offices in Glasgow, Teesside and Birmingham and resident sites at
Aldermaston and Pembroke.

The Acquisition further strengthens the Company's service offering by combining
three leading brands in the asbestos services industry: removal and remediation
in the commercial (Silverdell (UK)) and industrial (Kitsons) sectors; and
asbestos consulting and air monitoring (Redhill Analysts). Following the
Acquisition, Silverdell has achieved its key strategic goal of nationwide
capability which includes a presence in high growth, specialist industrial
sectors such as nuclear.

Kitsons has an experienced operational management team led by Andy Watson, who
will be responsible for the day to day management of Kitsons and for growing and
developing the business. Peter Dolan, the vendor, will remain with Kitsons on a
consultancy basis.

The integration of Kitsons will commence immediately and the Company should
benefit from a number of cost synergies including the sharing of resources,
combined purchasing power and the local sourcing of labour. The Directors
believe there are also significant cross selling opportunities through
leveraging new and existing customer relationships between the three businesses,
which management of Silverdell intend to focus on particularly.

Danny Spicer, Chief Executive of Silverdell, commented:

'This is a very exciting acquisition for Silverdell as it enhances our
capabilities as the UK's leading, nationwide asbestos services provider as well
as giving us access to high growth, industrial markets. In addition, the
Company continues to execute on its strategy to consolidate the fragmented
asbestos services market. Kitsons is an excellent business with exciting growth
prospects and we look forward to welcoming its staff into the business.'

in December 2006 for up to 10m.

Update...

Forward P/E to 30/9/2008 just a mere 11.5 PEG of 0.2 with projected EPS growth of 64%.

And these figure are without the recent acquisition taken into account.

This stock is far too cheap

Silverdell - BUY
Companies: SID
14/12/2007

The only quoted asbestos industry consolidator, Silverdell delivered encouraging first full year results to September, making pre-tax profits of 2.2m from 38.5m turnover.

Listed as shell company Bow Lane Capital in April 2006, the acquisition of South East-based asbestos remediation outfit Silverdell a few months later laid the platform for this groups expansion in a fragmented and legislation-driven sector. Silverdell has since gone on to make three further acquisitions in line with its corporate brief of creating a nationwide one-stop shop for asbestos services, including removal, remediation and consultancy.

These include Redhill Analysts, a high-margin consultant whose sales arise mainly from asbestos surveys, and Kitsons, a business bringing geographic branch coverage throughout the UK and an 'entr' into the buoyant nuclear and petro-chemical sectors. Post-year end, hotel sector specialist Swift Asbestos was bought in an earnings-enhancing complementary deal. Further select deals acquisition criteria are stringent are a certainty, though management is determined not to overpay.

The original Silverdell business, continuing to foster long-term ties with clients including Shell and Marks & Spencer, drove performance as one would expect, delivering an impressive 370% profits push to 4.6m from 30.5m revenues in another record year, whilst Kitsons made an early contribution. Redhills nine-month 700,000 profits input was a mild disappointment, reflecting a slower than expected summer and investment spend to ensure growth. For 2008, analysts are looking for significantly improved earnings of 12.3p (8.3p), placing the shares, recommended by Growth Company Investor at 160.5p, on an undemanding forward multiple of 12.4. Keep buying.

Big Al - 30 Sep 2009 12:51 - 178 of 213

Once more she bubbles under 10p.

Stuck this back of the close watch portfolio and considering a wee punt. High risk still, however.

Big Al - 01 Oct 2009 11:45 - 179 of 213

Trading update this morning seems the best news SID have had in quite some time. Obviously leaked out over the past few days?

Big Al - 01 Oct 2009 15:45 - 180 of 213

Well, I'm in at a suitable size. Two bites at the cherry today. High risk, though, I'll re-iterate that! ;-))

Good volume now.
