New CEO makes his first acquisition:

4/8/14

e2v technologies, a leading provider of technology solutions for high performance systems, today announces that it has agreed to acquire Seville-based Innovaciones Microelectronicas SL, trading as 'AnaFocus', a Spanish designer and developer of CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) imaging sensors for up to €34.2 million (£27.1 million). AnaFocus designs and develops high-performance, high-quality CMOS image-sensors and vision-systems for the industrial, professional, scientific, medical and high-end surveillance markets.

Good business fit

AnaFocus will become an integral part of the Machine Vision business within e2v's fast-growing High Performance Imaging division, which grew by 26% last year. It will fit well into the existing infrastructure of the division. It accelerates e2v's CMOS development road-map and deepens e2v's reach in the professional imaging markets. AnaFocus' custom sensor design capabilities, expertise in 'vision system-on-a-chip development', and growing portfolio of products, complements e2v's established position in machine vision markets. The machine vision markets have grown significantly in recent years and are anticipated to grow by c10% CAGR through to 2018.

In the calendar year to 31 December 2014 AnaFocus is expected to generate sales of approximately €11 million at a margin in line with those typical in this fast-growing market segment and it has good order book coverage. The acquisition is expected to be marginally earnings accretive in the financial year ending 31 March 2015 and earnings accretive in the financial year ending 31 March 2016. The transaction is consistent with e2v's stated ambition of accelerating organic growth in its more rapidly expanding businesses with closely aligned acquisitions.

From my experience, it should be 5% better.

[nwalsham15] 04/8/2014 07:27

Good acquisition??

[nwalsham15] 16/7/2014 07:32

What was the point of that statement???To dump the SP??

[nwalsham15] 20/6/2014 16:16

better today - i wonder how many got mugged yesterday?

[edwardt] 20/6/2014 13:52

maybe little volume but if you owned from 09, i suspect you would not be complaining!

[nwalsham15] 19/6/2014 14:20

very frustrating share.
great prospects, but just no movement in the share price

[nwalsham15] 19/5/2014 07:14

Those results look ok to me. Nothing spectacular, but certainly nothing to worry about

[edwardt] 30/4/2014 10:21

maybe -time will tell if new management can now sell this one to the city...

[newbold120] 23/4/2014 21:17

Breakout ed?

[edwardt] 16/4/2014 11:07

that would be nice!

[newbold120] 15/4/2014 20:47

Upgrades. New CEO can't kitchen sink now. Scope for both better margins and growth. Has the upgrade cycle begun? Still appears to be a big discount to sector. If we are lucky, this could be oxig in 2006...

[edwardt] 15/4/2014 14:03

quite reassuring i thought!

[envirovision] 15/4/2014 07:53

Boring update

[0rb1t] 04/3/2014 15:59

Currently 30 job vacancies. Must be busy.

[0rb1t] 04/3/2014 15:56

News item today on their website:

hxxp://www.e2v.com/news/e2v-adds-pc8548-to-its-portfolio-of-high-performance-microprocessors-targeting-mil-prf-38535-class-y-certification-for-space/

Looks very cutting-edge.

baffling , why sudden 4% rise on not high volume / no news?

does this job advert posted yesterday give us clue that RF processing will be taking off?

At e2v we have an exciting contract opportunity to join the Industrial Processing Systems (IPS) Team.

IPS is growing rapidly. Utilising its proprietary technology, the Unit develop and supply material processing solutions into a range of high value industrial applications.

[nwalsham15] 12/2/2014 15:40

at last, a welcome rise on a miserable afternoon!!

possible breakout??

[nwalsham15] 04/2/2014 11:36

2 nice director buys reported yesterday.
not small buy either - increased their holdings by a sizeable percentage.
hopefully bodes well....

[nwalsham15] 31/1/2014 17:36

I bought ASW via Td investing - not in an isa though

[ivyhuang] 31/1/2014 15:31

They are technical guys, and conservative tone. See you on ASW, Could not add ASW in HSBC ISA, how do you get it. Think more chance of E2V than ASW in 2014.

[nwalsham15] 31/1/2014 11:48

not looking too good then hey Ivyhuang??!

[ivyhuang] 30/1/2014 21:16

Should be a good day tomorrow. Tail up after 4:00pm as RNS should be in hands of FTSE for publishing morning.
