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.

SP down; I suspect due to lack of news-flow

Buying opportunity ?

TRADING UPDATE / Tuesday 23 July 2013
Inland Homes PLC

The Board of Inland Homes provides the following update on its activities ahead of its Preliminary Results announcement for the year ended 30 June 2013.
The Group has performed strongly with profitability ahead of market expectations.
House building programme
The decision to substantially increase Inland Homes' own house building programme is proving to be very successful. By the end of June 2013, the Group achieved the sale of 55 homes (2012: 9 homes) generating revenues of GBP11.4 million (2012: GBP1.7 million).
Inland Homes and Drayton Garden Village Ltd ("DGVL") have a combined development programme of 453 homes across seven sites with current forward sales either agreed or contracted at GBP42.5 million.

Land
During the course of the year, a number of notable planning permissions were achieved including 265 plots at Carters Quay, Poole and 101 plots at St John's Hospital, Chelmsford, Essex.
Inland Homes also witnessed strong demand for its 'land with planning permission' and in the financial year just ended, the Group disposed of 355 plots (2012: Nil) generating revenues of GBP15.35 million; DGVL sold a further 76 plots (2012: 116 plots) realising revenues of GBP5.30 million (2012: GBP6.7m).
Despite an increasingly competitive land market, prior to the year end Inland Homes secured further opportunities including options over a number of sites and exchanged contracts for the unconditional purchase of four further sites for a total consideration of GBP9.0 million. These opportunities provide the potential for an additional 366 residential plots. Our objective remains - to increase our land bank year on year whilst growing the number of plots built out and sold.

Group finances
After considerable investment in land and work in progress, including the payment of deferred consideration of GBP6.1 million, the Group finished the financial year with cash balances of GBP12.2 million and net borrowings of GBP3.7 million.
DGVL has also made a further reduction of the outstanding deferred consideration which further increases Inland Homes' profit share from DGVL to 74.4%. The Board expects Inland Homes' profit share to increase to 90% by the end of March 2014.
Summary
We are experiencing strong interest from both developers and housing associations for plots with planning consent and post the financial year-end we remain in dialogue with a number of parties in this regard.
Stephen Wicks, Inland Homes' Chief Executive commented:
"The Board is delighted to provide this trading update reporting a strong performance by the Group with profitability ahead of market expectations.

We have positioned Inland Homes with a clear sustainable strategy for the future with the following key characteristics:
-- growing the size and quality of our underlying land bank year on year;
-- increasing our direct house building activities to become a major regional house builder;
-- to maintain the core activity of selling consented building plots to other developers; and
-- keep a strong focus on our very healthy financial position. We look forward to updating the market and our shareholders in more detail when we report our Preliminary Results." 23 July 2013

Site Acquisition

Inland Homes is pleased to announce that it has exchanged unconditional contracts to purchase two empty office buildings in Station Road, Gerrards Cross, which was recently described as Britain's third wealthiest postcode*, Buckinghamshire.

In accordance with new legislation brought in by the Government in May 2013 to promote office to residential conversion, Inland Homes has applied to South Bucks Council under "prior approval notification" procedures that it intends to convert the buildings to residential units.

The buildings, which total 13,000ft², will convert into 30 apartments and satisfy the criteria set out in the new legislation. It is anticipated that all the units will be available for private sale.

It is intended that work will start on the development in January 2014.

on today's results

Inland Homes on firm foundations – Buy at 40p

Aim-listed Inland Homes (AIM:INL) has produced strong full year results and is a firm buy at 40p.

The developer and house-builder increased profits for the year ended June 30 to £5.2m (2012: 1.6m), on revenues of £31.1m (2012: £6.1m). The record results were driven by a combination of increased plot sales to developers and a growing focus on housebuilding activity in order to maximise the value of the group’s land bank.

The company upped its dividend fourfold to 0.27p a share, payable on January 6, 2014 to shareholders on the register as of December 6.

Inland’s year end cash balance was £12.2m compared with £0.6m a year ago, while reported net asset value (NAV) per share was 28.7p (2012: 27p). Underlying NAV is 34p, as its Drayton Garden Village development adds 5p of profit entitlement.

Stephen Wicks, Chief Executive, commented: “It has been a very good year for Inland. Our strategic move to increase the group’s housebuilding activity has proved to have been well timed, while we continue to make progress in growing our land bank in terms of both size and quality.

“The group is well financed and with market conditions in our favour, we are confident of making further progress throughout the course of this financial year and beyond.”

In a note issued today House broker Finncap increased its target price from 50p to 60p. Its analyst Duncan Hall commented: “Inland has grown its land bank to 2,306 plots and is beginning to harness the development upside through a progressive house-building programme. Unit sales will rise quickly from 55 in 2012 to over 240 by 2015. We raise our target price to 60p (reflecting 1.8 times the NAV multiple), with the upside potential to come from the land bank gearing to land prices and the positive cash flow from housing sales once the initial ramp-up has passed.”

Impressive candle.

One of Simon Thompson's picks! And a lovely minor breakout. Should settle at 50p and then towards Finncap target price of 60p!

Very happy with a closing price of 49.25 but the company is in a sweet spot operating in the south east. I am sure 60p will be within reach, may take a while though.
