This is a quality stock.
Just starting a thread - I'll post more very shortly.

Harry - do you follow these? If so, is it worth the effort of researching?

Not really. It's on my watch list atm as a possible recovery play when the economy starts to improve, but looks like they have bigger problems than previously thought. I'll continue to watch, but suspect there is more downside to come & a possible threat to the div. I get IC mag each week and I think they were recently tipped, but looks like even the experts get their fingers burnt every now & then!

Ok thanks.

Sold these as 2222p.

Been looking at them for months.

There is a god after all.

Wonder if there is any reflection to the wider market?

Rights issue implemented this morning:
"It is expected that admission of the New Ordinary Shares to the premium segment of the Official List and to trading (nil paid) on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities, together with the commencement of dealings in the New Ordinary Shares (nil paid), will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 19 March 2013."

Harry - the chart in post 36 - its one of those gaps!

Thanks. This one is high risk atm imo. Am playing the LAM & SDY game of 'fill the gap' but this company is having a pretty hard time and not confident that this rise will continue.

Interim Management Statement

The Group's overall trading performance for the year to date remains in line with management expectations. The Group's borrowings are also in line with expectations following the completion of the Rights Issue in April.

UK

The reorganisation of the Group's Severfield-Watson Structures business is now substantially complete. The Group has successfully achieved the anticipated savings and made good progress with the associated operational improvement programme.

The UK order book of £178m is slightly lower than that previously reported, but it remains at a level that management is comfortable with, given the current state of the UK market, the capacity reductions being implemented within the business, and the Group's more selective approach to securing work. There are early signs that the market may be marginally improving into 2014.

JSW Severfield Structures Ltd (India)

The primary focus in India continues to be on the commercial development of the business and conversion of the market from concrete to steel. While progress is encouraging, the order book level of £34.8m is not yet sufficient to maintain production at a break-even level. The factory expansion is almost complete and the increased capability will play an important role in the continuing business development process.

Outlook

While short term challenges remain, the Group is making encouraging progress with its operational improvements, supported by a strong balance sheet, and is maintaining its market position. Management is confident that the Group is progressing in line with its expectations and will be well placed to benefit from any recovery in the UK construction market.
