Scott McGregor, CEO of Camco said: "Camco's business has developed well during the year, returning to profit and generating cash. "In H1 we continued to deliver on our strategy of developing and owning clean energy assets with success in North America and Asia. With proven project development expertise built up over 20 years, Camco is well positioned to deliver on our strategic goal of becoming a leading developer and owner of clean energy projects." "Clean energy projects will provide the Company with stable revenue streams from power production complementing our existing carbon business which we have successfully restructured to deliver returns even in a low carbon price environment and combined create long-term shareholder value."

Revenue earned (excluding carbon price fair value adjustment) increased to EUR12.2m compared to EUR7.1m (H1 2011) and EUR10.2m (FY 2011). The restructuring of the carbon portfolio achieved during the period resulted in the downwards carbon price fair value adjustment for the period of EUR2.1m being lower than it would have been pre-restructure and the board anticipates this effect to continue in future periods as volatility in the carbon price persists. In total, revenue (including carbon price fair value adjustment) was EUR10.1 million compared to EUR12.3m (H1 2011) and negative EUR11.5m (FY 2011). Our 4.5 MW clean energy biogas plant in Jerome, Idaho was ramping up during the period and therefore reflect a limited contribution to revenue in H1 2012. That plant is now fully operational and is anticipated to contribute significantly more to the segmental result in the second half. The carbon business contributed revenue of EUR10.2m excluding the carbon price fair value adjustment (H1 2011: EUR6.4m). Looking ahead to the second half of the year and into 2013, we expect to record more revenue from our 2012-20 carbon portfolio as our projects become operational with a corresponding increase in accrued income in accordance with our accounting policies. As cash is received from carbon contracts as they deliver credits through to 2020, this accrued income balance will reduce. We may also choose to enter into structured forward sales of credits, which will have the effect of converting accrued income into cash at that point. Carbon operating expenditure was reduced to EUR1.9m (H1 2011: EUR2.7m), which we anticipate reducing further in the second half and beyond. Overall administrative expenses during the period were EUR6.5m compared to EUR6.4m (H1 2011) and EUR7.0m in the second half of 2011 (EUR13.4m (FY 2011)). We will continue to keep a tight control over costs in order to preserve cash for investment in project development activities. Profit from continuing operations for the period was EUR1.1m compared to EUR2.6m (HY 2011) and a loss of EUR29.6m (FY 2011). Cash and cash equivalents increased by EUR1.7m to EUR16.1m with adjusted net cash increasing by EUR3.7m to EUR11.7m at the period end from FY 2011. Adjusted net cash excludes cash restricted for sole use in construction of projects and debt secured against a project which will be amortized over the life of that project. The increase in cash takes account of the sale of the UK advisory business, final amounts spent on the North America clean energy biogas plant and net cash flows from operating activities. Operational Review North America In the US, Camco's 4.5 MW clean energy biogas plant became fully operational during the period. The project was completed on time and ahead of budget. The project also received a grant of approximately US $6m from US Treasury in August 2012, the majority of which will be used to repay a loan which was used to fund part of the construction of the project. The company will continue to develop its portfolio of biogas projects across North America and looks forward to making further announcements as projects come on-line. Our US team has continued to develop our agricultural carbon portfolio for use in the California market, which will be the second largest after the EU ETS when it begins in 2013. Camco continues to lead the agricultural biogas sector in the US, with 2.5m tonnes now under management and the largest number of "Livestock Gas Capture/Combustion" projects registered under the Climate Action Reserve (CAR) standard. South East Asia The team is now developing a pipeline of projects that will generate clean energy using local regulatory incentives. As part of this strategy the team acquired a 2 MW biogas development project in August 2012 to recover biogas containing methane from palm oil mill effluent. Construction of the project is expected to be completed in early 2013. The team is pursuing further development of biogas and energy efficiency projects. In H1 we completed 13 carbon project registrations and are aiming to complete registration of the remaining projects in time for the registration deadline at the end of this year. Camco's South East Asia's net cash balance as at 30 June 2012 (within its joint venture) was EUR7.3m (not included within Group cash balance). China Our team in China has been working hard on developing and registering its portfolio of carbon projects in time for the 2012 registration deadline. We are also exploring opportunities to build on our carbon project success and develop new clean energy projects in the region. Our team has now successfully registered 96 carbon projects and will pursue the registration of the remainder of its projects by the end of 2012. The team has also delivered 17.9m tonnes to 30 June 2012. Camco's China carbon portfolio of CERs is structured to provide discounted future gross cash flows of EUR39.4m based on the forward price curve as at 30 June 2012 (see below). Africa Camco has six offices in Africa pursing clean energy and carbon reduction projects. Recent successes included a contract win in Tanzania, where Camco and Rex were awarded US $4.7m to bring solar power to off-grid communities in rural Tanzania, the contract value to Camco being US $1.1m Other As announced at the time of our 2011 results, the restructuring of Camco's carbon portfolio in H1 2012 was a significant event and aligns it with current market conditions. The following tables outline CER discounted future gross cash flows as at 30 June 2012 (the date of the last review) based on the forward curve at that date. A price sensitivity analysis is also included to show how movements in the forward price curve will impact this value.

We were also pleased to welcome Jonathan Marren to the role of Chief Financial Officer shortly after the period end. Outlook Over the last half year the Company has laid the groundwork to further expand its clean energy business in each of its regions. Clean energy opportunities in North America, Asia and Africa are now the Company's core focus and we anticipate an expansion of our clean energy project portfolio. In North America, Asia and Africa this utilizes two trends: the growth in regulatory incentives, feed-in tariffs and grants available; and the continuing reduction in clean tech technology costs. Camco is excellently positioned to benefit from these trends in each of its regions. Our technical expertise, project development prowess and established local experts have placed us in the lead in these markets. Our existing Asian carbon portfolio will deliver value to shareholders as it matures over the coming years. In North America, we hold a leading position in that carbon market. We expect our North American presence to expand as opportunities grow in an active compliance market after initial auctioning of allowances commences later this year. New regional carbon markets in Australia, Africa and China, commencing shortly, will provide Camco with great opportunities to expand its carbon development business alongside its clean energy development business |
Posted at 11/7/2012 12:02 by robards Brief interview on Bloomberg Business Week:"Carbon is a difficult asset class," Marren said in a phone interview. "Investors need to spend a lot of time to understand it." Camco has diversified away from United-Nations-overs Credits plunged 63 percent in the past year, as Camco received a record delivery of offsets of about 12.8 million metric tons, up 58 percent, according to the annual report published last month. The resulting loss prompted Scott McGregor, chief executive officer, to waive his bonus and long- term incentive entitlement for 2011. The shares closed unchanged today at 5.13 pence in London, valuing the company at 9.7 million pounds ($15 million). "I see the value of the business being substantially above where it currently is" in the equity market, Marren said. The start next year of California's carbon market may help boost investor sentiment, McGregor said in the same interview. |

Posted at 16/5/2012 12:12 by 27howard You would think so, 8.5 mil market cap v 17 mil Euros of cash.Terrible day though I do not think it matters to investors how cheap certain stocks are but I bet this rises 30% on results day when others realise how cheap it is. |
Posted at 18/4/2012 18:44 by howdlep Tonight's UK-Analyst Stockmarket Report:-News of a significantly improved cash balance at Camco International (CAO) saw shares in the clean energy products manufacturer surge by 1.375p to 5.625p. The firm said that it held funds of 17 million euros on 13th April, up from 11.3 million euros at the end of the 2011 calendar year thanks to the on-going performance of the group and the completion of a number of carbon transactions. Investors will be pleased to see such a positive start to 2012, although focus in the coming weeks we will applied towards the group's final results for the year to December 2011, which will be released on 22nd May. |
Posted at 21/3/2012 07:44 by howdlep rat attack et al,There is no delay to the publication of results. Management can release them at any point up to and including 30 June 2012. They will include a forwarding looking outlook, which will include reference to the carbon credit market. What is of relevence to me, is the excellent cash position and of course news of contract wins, as per the one in Tanzania this morning, worth USD1.1m to Camco. On a risk/reward basis, CAO now represents an even better investment. So is now the time for the pi to get back in? Camco and Rex tender for Solar Programme RNS RNS Number : 7210Z Camco International Ltd 21 March 2012 21 March 2012 Camco International Limited ('Camco') Camco and Rex awarded Tender for Largest Solar Installation Programme in Tanzania Companies form joint venture to bring renewable energy to rural Tanzania through the Millennium Challenge Corporation · Camco and Rex have been awarded a USD $4.7 m contract to bring solar power to off-grid communities in rural Tanzania · JV recognized as bidder with specialised capability to offer the required expertise set · Project beneficiaries include schools, health centres and households Camco International Limited (AIM: CAO), a global developer of clean energy projects and solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and Rex Investment Ltd (RIL), a leading solar contractor based in Tanzania, are pleased to announce that their recently formed joint venture has won a tender, worth USD $4.7m, to distribute and install solar power systems in the rural Kigoma region of Tanzania. The contract was awarded by the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), a US foreign aid agency which operates in Tanzania as the Millennium Challenge Account - Tanzania (MCA-T). The Kigoma solar project is the largest of its type in Tanzania's history and will involve the installation of solar power at 45 secondary schools, 10 health centres, 120 dispensaries, municipal buildings and businesses across 25 village market centres currently without access to the electricity grid. As part of the project Camco will also work to encourage households in the region to install small-scale solar home systems (SHS) by advising communities on the collective purchase and installation of systems in bulk, thereby achieving significant economies of scale. This mechanism, known as the 'PV Clusters' project format, is already being implemented by Camco in rural communities across the Lake Victoria region of Tanzania, announced in September last year. Camco and RIL were successful in a public bid, emerging as the only bidder that combined the required forte in importing and distributing solar equipment. Rex is Tanzania's leading solar contractor and Camco is the market leader in rolling out solar home systems across Tanzania. The contract, which is due to commence in May 2012 has a value to Camco of USD $1.1 million over its duration and attaches to the company no upfront cost. The remaining USD $3.6 million will be received by RIL and includes provision for the upfront equipment procurement costs linked to the contract. Currently only 15% of Tanzania's population has access to electricity according to the country's Ministry of Energy and Minerals. Tanzania ranks amongst the world's top ten countries for solar irradiation and small-scale solar power installations of the type promoted under the Kigoma programme are expected to play an increasingly important role in meeting the growing energy demand of Tanzania's rural communities. Implementation of the Kigoma project is expected to begin in May this year and is due for completion by July 2013. The project is part of the five-year Compact grant, extended to the United Republic of Tanzania by the Government of the United States of America through the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) with the objective of reducing poverty and stimulating economic growth. Jeff Felten, Managing Director, Camco Tanzania said: "We are delighted that the MCC has recognized the positive impact small-scale solar installations can have on rural off-grid communities in Tanzania. While industrialized countries are trying to rethink or refit their old coal-fired plants, much of Africa could potentially leapfrog that stage and move straight to renewable energy generation. The MCC's award of the Kigoma Solar Project to the joint venture partnership between Camco and RIL is an important validation of our unrivalled expertise and experience developing off-grid rural energy projects in Tanzania. In RIL we are pleased to have identified a strong contractor with which to partner and Camco looks forward to working together to further expand the market for solar energy use in Tanzania." Francis Kibhisa, RIL's founder and Managing Director said: "The primary goal of the joint venture is to promote the use of solar PV by municipal organizations and commercial businesses in rural communities throughout Tanzania, many of which do not currently have access to the electricity grid. We hope to continue to work alongside Camco to expand the model implemented here and develop solar projects throughout Tanzania and beyond." During the signing ceremony, MCA-T Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Bernard Mchomvu congratulated the joint venture for winning the tender following an international competitive procurement process and added "Successful implementation of the project will improve the economic and social well-being of the communities living in the targeted areas".

Posted at 29/2/2012 15:19 by professor x I just spoke to someone over the phone at investor relations regarding the results, she seemed to think they would report at the end of the second quarter! Surely this can't be right? Has anyone else had any feedback from the company? |
Posted at 09/2/2012 19:44 by 27howard Very quiet here considering the large block of stock changing hands, 60k tradeat the bell was a buy, around 7.35p to buy, outside change of a bid with such volume blocks going through or more likely another big increase in % stake for Henderson Global Investors. |
Posted at 30/1/2012 20:23 by 27howard Hopefully the shareprice will add 50-100% mrmoron.They are backed with a lot of cash, they did state and have spent a lot of cash in last 6 months, from 14.9 mil euros to 11.3 mil so a 3.6 mil outflow but that is more than made up for with the recent disposal and the cash spent was not for waste, it was to generate long term growth. At the moment it seems to be a company worth zero making anything from 3-7 million euros, i say zero because if you could buy the company at 7p you would instantly get your money back with all the cash it has. Almost a too good to be true story, that usually worries investors, i put it down to a distressed seller myself, we shall see. |
Posted at 17/1/2012 22:11 by contrarian2investor rat attack, given Socgen's recent investment/financial record, one would think that investors would take less notice of their mutterings. Looks like I will just get further opportunities to buy below my initial tranche purchase price. Until value is eventually realised. |
