This ones moved up pretty nicely over the last few days and looks like it could go beyond its high for the year in the 250s. Theres certainly momentum behind it and it could also be presenting news of acquisitions which would most surely push its growth forecasts up.

Sondex specialises in the design, development and production of electromechanical
technology for downhole operations and measurement in oil & gas
wells. It supplies all major oil service companies globally and is a respected name
in the industry. Listed June 2003 @ 100p/share.

The companys last results were very impressive....

Turnover up 81% to 31.7million (2004 - 17.5million) forecast of 30m
Operating profit before amortisation of intangibles rose 46% to 7.7million
Operating profit rose 46% to 5.1 million
Basic earnings per share 4.7p (2004 - 0.4p) forecast of 6.8p
Adjusted earnings per share 10.1p (2004 - 4.0p) forecast of 11.8p
Full year proposed dividend increased by 8% to 1.95p (2004 - 1.80p)

The company is certainly not cheap with a rolling P/E of circa 20 but you have to remember this is a world class technology company serving the booming oil industry and as I state above we could see further earnings enhancing bolt ons.

Broker Evolution have a prospective P/E of 15 on the stock which could be found to be too high if the earnings as I beleive will be ramped up.

Its certainly worth having a look at the last RNS from the company re to the analyst site visits....................

Monday 27th June 2005

Sondex plc
('Sondex' or the 'Company')

Sondex, the oilfield technology company, will today host an analyst visit to its
R&D facilities in Bramshill, Hampshire and to its new facility in Yateley,
Hampshire where final product assembly, test and inspection is now undertaken.

At the briefing, Sondex will confirm that trading since the year end remains in
line with the guidance given at the Preliminary results in May, when the company
stated that the order book was strong, reflecting good market conditions, and
that the Board was confident of achieving further successes in the current year.
Otherwise, no material new information will be disclosed during the meeting.

A copy of the presentation to be given can be downloaded at
www.sondex.co.uk ENDS.

We could have more institutions buying ito this one in the very near future and the only reason I say in the heading that It could be a trading buy is because of the high P/E at the moment but I expect that to drop with increased earnings.

DYOR.

cheers GF.

"Sondex PLC, the oilfield technology supplier, said it has formally dropped plans to acquire Canada's Innicor Subsurface Technologies Inc after shareholders voted against the transaction.The resolutions for the 35 mln stg acquisition and the associated fundraising were rejected by shareholders, as recommended by the board, at an EGM on Thursday.The Sondex board early this month withdrew its support for the deal as proceeding with it will 'not be in the best interest' of shareholders."
Would I be correct in saying the 280p share issue has also been dropped as the cash is no longer needed?

Hoping we stay over 3 for a few days at the close of business.

Got to be safer than the likes of goo,high demand for forseeable future

Looks to have confirmed recent break over 3.00 now.

Solid start to the day.

Trades on a forward P/E of just over 17 and a PEG of 0.8 to FEB 2008 so theres still room for SP growth.

A good start on what looks like a muted morning in general.

Prospective P/E of 16.6 to end of Feb 08 and a PEG of 0.8 plus EPS growth of 21% makes these still relatively cheap with some left in the SP.

And its on a momentum run at the moment.

Breakout!

Interesting afternoon ahead with L2 looking very strong.

Still have a stake here.

Interesting to look at the concensus fundies going forward after the recent market sell off..

To end of Feb 08 it is trading on a P/E of 19.2 and a peg of 0.8

To end of Feb 09 it is trading on a P/E of 14.4 and a peg of 0.4

Not cheap but then again not overly expensive.

What a cracking statement....

UK smallcap opening - Sondex up on bullish update
AFX


LONDON (AFX) - Buyers came for Sondex, 17 pence up at 361, after the oilfield technology supplier said it anticipates reporting full-year revenues up in excess of 30 pct and operating profit before amortisation of acquired intangible assets and exceptional costs up by over 40 pct.

Particularly strong results are anticipated from the Drilling division which is expected to report organic revenue growth of around 35 pct. Significant

contributions were also seen from both Russia and China where the company has

experienced record order intake.

Adjusted earnings per share are anticipated to be some 10 pct above market

consensus (range of forecasts is 15.0 pence to 16.9). The results would still be at the top end of the range if the one off cost of 1.5 mln stg due to the aborted acquisition of Innicor Subsurface Technologies Inc were deducted, the company added.

Broker forecasts will have to be upgraded now.

Certainly got some momentum behind it.

Spring cleaning again and sold up.

Made a 63% gain since july 2005. Was only supposed to be a trading buy.

May return.

Others with more growth in them out there.

Bought some @ 45p

Large marked down lately and today as oil price is lower for the last couple days. Half of share price is in cash.
Operational progress in Morocco and the company will drill seven wells this year in the region, the flow test results from the SD-1X South Disouq well, with 82 ft of net pay with 25% porosity the well was really good.
