This is a property Development Co floated at 50p

- and now just 8.5p

Having bought several "brownfield" sites and Poole Investments [PIV] which had a lacklustre performance, having been previously a tile company - PIV finished at 5.8 pence (DYOR).

Didn't any of those Investors ( April 08 at 50p) think that "Housing" might be a tad over-supplied? . . . INL now 8.5 (loss is 83%- oops).

Still, there are some venues for mudlarking-about....for the next four years - does anyone know the Directors' Salaries and available cash?
Can they hold-back?
EDIT(19DEc08)- sp up 10% on zero-volume (MM's hoping the extended Credit will make punters pile-in!). Now 7p to buy...oh deary.

Ah, so the sp might get close to the float-price . . . the Wonders of Management, eh?

Just seen 50p float price, they have not had a good run.

Inland Homes sees profits soar as home and land sales rise
Wed 20 Mar 2013




LONDON (SHARECAST) - Inland Homes reported a three-fold rise in half-year pre-tax profit on Wednesday on the back of strong land and home sales.

Pre-tax profit for the six months to the end of December 2012 rose to £3.1m from £1.1m for the same period a year earlier.

The UK housebuilder posted revenues of £19.31m, up from £3.66m in 2011, driven by a £15.35m sale of 355 land plots.

During the period, the company made significant progress on housebuilding projects including 146 homes on four developments.

Inland was also awarded planning permission for building 268 homes at Carters Quay in Poole, Dorset.

Net assets increased to £51.7m, compared to £49.4m the previous year. Trading profit for the period grew to £4.3m from £2.3m.

"I am pleased to report an excellent set of interim results,” said Chief Executive, Stephen Wicks.

"Gross profit is up by 87.6% and profit before tax has increased by 183% over the corresponding period last year.

"Our development pipeline from both a housebuilding and a land perspective has never been stronger and we are looking forward to substantial further growth over the coming years."

A dividend of 0.067p was paid to shareholders on December 17th and Inland said it expects to recommend a "substantially increased dividend" for the financial year ending June 30th 2013

Momentum building at Inland

Aim-listed planning specialist Inland Homes (INL) enjoyed a very fruitful first half, selling 355 consented building plots for £15.4m and 15 new homes for an additional £3.1m. Chief executive Stephen Wicks says its success had more to do with the timing of permissions and sales - the prior year was a somewhat barren one - than the government's attempts to unblock the planning system. "It's got no easier to get planning permission - quite the contrary," he says.

The company's net assets swelled 4.7 per cent to £51.7m as the cash rolled in from sales. But that substantially understates its underlying value since the 1,931 residential plots are held on the balance sheet at cost. It also excludes likely gains from Drayton Garden Village, a venture with the Ministry of Defence from which Inland is due to receive at least 5p a share in development profits.

In time, Mr Wicks wants to turn the company into a more conventional housebuilder by developing homes on a higher proportion of its consented plots. He expects Inland to build 300-400 homes a year, with 200 due to be under construction by June. The cash generated will be used to buy more plots in the South East, particularly from the cash-strapped Ministries of Defence and Health and from book-cleansing banks.

Broker finnCap has upgraded its adjusted EPS forecast for the year to end-June 2013 from 1.5p to 1.8p (from 0.4p in 2012).

Inland successful in the first round of Build to Rent bidding





The Board of Inland Homes plc ("INLAND"or "Company") is pleased to announce that it has been successful in the first round of bids in the Government backed 'Build to Rent' initiative which is being administered by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA), the national housing and regeneration agency for England.



The successful parties for the first phase of the two stage selection process were informed on 16 April 2013 and this covers 45 projects and a total of up to 10,000 new private homes constructed for private sector rental. The next stage of the selection process will involve competitive clarification with the HCA to refine project details and to confirm the £15 million loan across two sites bid for by Inland.



Projects were chosen on the basis of deliverability, value for money and local housing demand. The Fund is a fully recoverable, commercial investment where the Government will lend money to developers at very reasonable rates of interest to allow schemes to be built, managed and let. The funding available through the scheme can be used to cover development costs such as land, construction and the setting up of long term lettings management. Once the schemes are let, the developer will sell on its interest or re-finance to repay the loan provided by the HCA.



Stephen Wicks, CEO at INLAND commented:

"We are delighted to have been successful in the first round of bidding; we are confident that by applying INLAND's expertise in planning & development we can help to shape local communities and stimulate new private housing supply, which in turn will attract new institutional investment into the sector and create long term value."
