Well worth a look at these.

Had them on the watch list for a while and then bought them on Friday when the chart showed a breakout. Consultants in the Nuclear/Engineering Business, growth looks like it could be top notch here and this one generates cash hand over fist.

Little capital expenditure as the company provides the brains (engineers) within the British Nuclear Industry but growth abroad cannot be ruled out.

The company does a lot of sub contracting work and as some excelent contacts within the industry.

Stock trades on a 2007 forward P/E of around 16 but this should fall if the company increases growth internally and by way of acquisition.

A bit of background on the company.

companies in the UK and involved in waste and nuclear materials handling,
processing and storage, including new build facilities where necessary to

Director Speak

Tony Moore, Chief Executive of INS added: 'As an independent company, all our
focus will be on growing the business both nationally and internationally within
the burgeoning nuclear sector. The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority recently
estimated the cost of clean up and decommissioning in the UK, for 20 nuclear
sites within the portfolio, at 63 billion. There is also potential in the
medium to longer term, for INS in nuclear defence and to support any new
investment in nuclear power generation.

DYOR.

Well done to all those long suffering shareholders of RTS from which this was demerged from..like me!
Question is take out price, it was in its ascendancy before and somone has obviously recognised its potential.
Any guesses folks?
Has to be an engineering conglomorate me thinks but we will have to wait and see

I would guess its a company that begins with the letter C.

funny, i actually thought of carillion but what do i know.this is purely a guess not inside info
mind you could be another c.
shame if it gets taken out too soon but you never know. thanks mitzy

We could both be right groover..good luck.

What price though?.

Double at least its present price I would have thought.

I cant believe a few are selling.??????????.

Some still selling, pure madness.

i think approach is a very opportunistic one, I hope mgmt considers offer carefully, could be a fit as an inhouse player for a bigger boy who is competing now only here but overseas.
Selling should be short term but I for one am hoping mitzy is right, fair price circa 1.00 should be fair, no way this will end year below 1.00 but its a question of economics I guess but guys, we take our cahnces and if this gets taken out, I will be watching for a GF classic to put the money in, no pressure ok!!

G22 as you know Im a very down to earth type and I dont go blasting away with bagger this and bagger that. I look for solid companies and solid newsflow.

I really do think though from what I have heard over the last couple of days we may get a bidding war here.

A quid or more will do me.

cheers GF.

Sorry, didnt mean any disrespect GF. I will sit tight and watch, maybe more news will unfold over the weekend, just hope that mgmt continues to focus on developing business
