The company as grown its business rapidly over the last few years. In the year to December 2005, it announced a 20% increase in profits before tax to £2.16 million and a 27% jump in sales at £17.15 million. In the last three years, turnover has doubled and net earnings have increased by 75%. In the six months to 30 June 2006, turnover reached £9.06 million and pre-tax profits were £1.01 million.

The numbers do not include the recent acquisition of the waste management division of Perivallonitki AE, a company set up by Andrianopoulos in the early nineties. Since January this year, the company has completed on a number of new contracts.

It has signed a two year contract with Consip Italy worth £1.42 million, an annual contract with Hellenic Recovery Recycling Corporation for recycling containers worth £1 million, a contract for the supply of plastic stadium seats for the Kuwait International Stadium worth £1.69 million and a three year contract with the Eastern Shires in the UK for the supply of wheeled bins worth £12.52 million.

5.2 Bulletin Boards
The financial websites also have bulletin boards were you can go to discuss companies with other shareholders and get updates on what is happening to them. The ones dedicated to HLS on Yahoo and Ample have now been shut down, ironically due to the disruptive behaviour of several shareholders. Ragingbull ( and ADVFN ( still active. If you know of any others, let us know.
