Posted at 16/4/2013 17:17 by smcl WHO GETS THE £18m????????????Ricardo acquires AEA Europe Ricardo has announced today that it has acquired the business, operating assets and employees engaged in the business of AEA Technology Plc (in administration) ("AEA Europe"), for a total cash consideration of £18.0 million. No historic defined benefit pension liabilities or bank debts will transfer to Ricardo as part of the transaction. AEA Europe is a leading environmental consultancy providing technical consultancy services to the UK public sector, the European Commission, international agencies and private sector organizations. The company is a major supplier of services to the UK government, and has a reputation for providing authoritative and independent technical expertise to underpin policy development, implementation and evaluation, in areas including energy and climate change, air quality, sustainable transport, waste management, resource efficiency and chemical risk. The acquisition announced today will see the AEA Europe business, including an operational staff of approximately 400 located at five UK sites, transferring to Ricardo where it will operate as Ricardo-AEA under the continued leadership of Robert Bell, reporting to Martin Fausset, managing director of Ricardo UK. Based on its most recent reported results, the assets being acquired generated, for the year ended 31 March 2012, annual revenues of £39 million and delivered operating profit margins similar to those of the rest of the Ricardo group. Its acquisition represents an increase in the size of the business of approximately 20 percent. Today's announcement marks a significant and extremely positive step in the development of both the Ricardo and AEA Europe businesses, offering potential long-term and enduring benefits for customers, employees and investors alike. Ricardo and AEA are both extremely strong and highly respected businesses in their respective core markets, providing a wide range of high quality, expert technical, scientific and strategic consulting services including the delivery of major national and international programmes. The clients of Ricardo and AEA Europe are complementary. It is anticipated that Ricardo's international network will allow AEA Europe to develop as a more global business, leveraging Ricardo's industrial client base. In addition, AEA Europe's strong links with government organizations are expected to enhance Ricardo's relationships in this customer area. "I'm delighted to be able to welcome AEA Europe and its employees to Ricardo," said Ricardo CEO Dave Shemmans. "AEA Europe has a strong reputation for its technical capabilities and has a pre-eminent position in advising on and developing major environmental policies. This acquisition supports our ongoing strategy and marks the continued development of Ricardo as the global multi-industry supplier for high quality strategic, technical and engineering services. "The two businesses share a similar technology-focused professional culture, based on the delivery of innovative world class services to our customer base, utilizing highly skilled employees. Our common long term strategic drivers of reducing carbon emissions, maintaining air quality and the management of scarce resources provide an excellent opportunity to further develop Ricardo's expertise in delivering high value-added services to our global customer base." Robert Bell, managing director of Ricardo-AEA, added: "I am extremely pleased that AEA Europe has become part of Ricardo. The transaction both secures the future for AEA Europe and provides a platform for its continued success and growth as a part of the global Ricardo organization." |
Posted at 21/9/2012 11:17 by blueday3 New waste data and GIS mapping tool launches at RWM 2012AEA will be launching its new waste-market research tool, FALCON, at RWM 2012. FALCON is a powerful data and GIS mapping system that provides users with a bird's eye view of the current and proposed waste management landscape across the UK. Adam Read, AEA's Resource Efficiency and Waste Management Practice Director commented on the launch of the new tool: 'FALCON is an exciting new development. It offers a range of benefits to our clients, including planners and developers, insurers, investors and local authorities. Initial client testing has been positive and the team is now looking forward to publicly demonstrating the technology and its applications for the first time at RWM.' RWM in partnership with CIWM takes place on 11 13 September at NEC Birmingham, UK. It is a leading European event for resource efficiency and waste management. It attracts over 14,000 visitors each year and explores the latest industry developments that affect everyone from local authorities and landfills to retailers and recycling consultants. An online system, FALCON contains details of: waste facilities (e.g. size, location, status, operator); municipal solid waste arisings by local authority region (recycled, composted, recovered, landfilled); and the status of residual waste contracts by local authority region. Visitors to this year's event can put FALCON and its broad and up-to-date database of waste contract information to the test by visiting AEA's Resource Efficiency and Waste Management team on Stand 20-L69. AEA's Resource Efficiency and Waste Management Principal Consultant, Sarahjane Widdowson, is also to provide expert insight at RWM. Sarahjane joins a high profile speaker line up and will present on 'The barriers to waste infrastructure and how they can be overcome.' She will draw on her recent experience of supporting the ground-breaking European Pathway to Zero Waste (EP0W) programme. |
Posted at 30/5/2012 07:45 by knigel Investor relations released a RNS to poster on LSE stating that company was very busy at the moment working on various matters which I presume including "solving" the pension issue, agreeing new bank terms and putting into action the strategy review that has taken place... although high risk I'm fairly confident that the results will try to draw a line under the various issues that has kept the share price this low. |
Posted at 03/5/2012 20:23 by knigel This is the email I received tonight from investor relations:-There is nothing planned imminently. I do not have a date as yet I have replied asking Neville to confirm that the company will still be releasing an update before the July final results. Update tomorrow night hopefully! |

Posted at 13/3/2012 09:19 by susiebe I was having a look at the RNSs last night.What a boring lot!Why dont AAT release more news?Surely some contracts must be worth reporting in a separate RNS to the collective trading statements. Anything positive would give a much needed boost not just to share price but to investors morale too |

Posted at 19/11/2011 11:45 by marab Some good posts making some good points like -Dr Rosso - "Sp is the outcome of supply and demand factors in the market and doesnt necessarily have an accurate bearing on the true value of the Co." Which is why many of us are holding stocks at values far below the level we bought them at. Many investors are holding onto their cash so volume is down and even a small sell can savage a share price. When an institution sells like this it's left to the PIs to pick up the stock and that takes time. Bobs Good Eye -"Dr D - Prudential, Hambros and Legal and General all dumping at the same time has caused the carnage. I'm expecting RNS's from all 3 early next week. Let's face it, Pru don't give a toss about a poxy 250k. As for Hambros, they were adding at over 3p back in July. Now selling at less than a 10th of that." Institutions running billions of pounds worth of investments are not going to be greatly effected by their sells here, and as Bob pointed out - institutional investors make mistakes too. Weighing everything up, AAT looks worth a gamble with cash you don't mind losing. The downside is you lose everything you put in, the upside that you may be looking at a multi bagger. My sympathies to long term holders. As a holder of TWE shares I know exactly how you feel although the upside looks potentially better here. |
