INSE are featured in today's Shares Magazine in an article written by Richard Power, manager of the Octopus UK Micro Cap Growth Fund, about the fund's holdings:

"Another to have recently reported figures is Inspired Energy (INSE:AIM), which provides energy solutions for large companies with multiple sites. The company, which is currently valued at £55 million, is expected to achieve a profit of £5.2 million for the year to December 2015, rising to £6.3 million in 2016. The company has built an exciting platform from which to extend its service offering across its client base."

Buyers wanting stock

[rivaldo] 21/9/2015 09:36

Nice sudden move up.

Patience being the key word....we're on the right track here, just have to wait for everyone else to catch up!

What does it say about the investment community when little beauties like this are not more widely bought?

Rivaldo,
Thank you for posting the above snippet.
I had a little top-up today, whilst it's 'quiet'.
It appears to be under the radar of many at the moment. Slater obviously sees the potential and I'll wager this has all the criteria of a Zulu stock?
Happy to take the growing dividend until the inevitable rerating....
AIMHO etc..

Another 250k swapping hands, maybe another holding update soon. Good to see Slater increasing holdings. Thanks for the press article Riv. Still feel confident that patience will eventually be rewarded here.

Thanks for the post Riv

Cheers F12.

I noticed this interview with the CEO hasn't been posted here before:



"Energy levels rising with half year profits at Fylde firm

Confidence is high at Fylde coast energy specialists Inspired Energy Solutions after half year figures showed record profits and order book sales.

The Kirkham-based company, set up by chief executive Janet Thornton in 2000, posted pre-tax profits of £1.8m, up 50 per cent, while revenues rocketed 32 per cent to £6.5m for the six months ending June 30.

The business, which manages energy needs for more than 6,700 clients nationwide, reported a record six months of corporate order book sales of £5.5m, up 15 per cent on the same six months a year earlier.

The company continued its expansion last month when it bought Wholesale Power UK, based on the Whitehills Business Park, to enhance its offer to its core corporate sector customers.

Inspired paid an initial consideration of £2m in cash and shares, with a deferred consideration of £750,000.

Janet Thornton said: “We keep saying we have just had our best ever month, but it’s true and happens every time and that is entirely down to our systems and our talented team.

“The purchase of Wholesale Power UK is exciting as it gives us access to new areas and customers and allows us to move into new fields with their engineers and new skill sets.

“The group continues to deliver strong organic growth and the acquisition of Wholesale Power UK further underpins the corporate division’s position as a market leader.

“Following the acquisition, the Corporate Order Book exceeds £20m, which provides great visibility of earnings going forward and allows us to look forward with confidence.

“The strong cash generation of the Group in the first half of 2015 is particularly pleasing as it demonstrates both the continuing cash generative nature of the corporate business model and also that the increase in cash generation of the SME division has been delivered as forecast following the investment made by the Group in 2014.”

She said the firm’s cash conversion ratio of 78 per cent for the period compared to 45 per cent last time, highlighting the strong cash generation throughout the Group, including the maturing SME division.

She added that the company would be looking to consolidate its services further.

An interim dividend of 0.1p was declared – an increase of 43 per cent."

Good to have you here Riv. :)

[rivaldo] 09/9/2015 15:38

Bought some of these myself at these value prices. There must be a seller around, but that won't last for long.

Great to see Slater buying substantially more. Hopefully he'll continue topping up.

[nw99] 09/9/2015 15:29

In safe hands Slater upping stake

[wanttowin] 09/9/2015 14:27

2 x 250k this time

[doodlebug4] 08/9/2015 22:35

2 x 750k L trades within a minute of each other - Directors buys perhaps?

[nw99] 08/9/2015 12:59

Interesting

[wanttowin] 08/9/2015 12:39

2 x 750,000 ?

[doodlebug4] 08/9/2015 10:56

I'm so relaxed I'm nearly asleep. Just checking everyone else is awake! :-)

[nw99] 07/9/2015 21:05

It's a good long term share relax

[doodlebug4] 07/9/2015 18:43

A decent late afternoon 175k buy. Chart still looks ok-ish.

[funkmasterp12] 26/8/2015 21:44

Without having the numbers to hand I think so, yeah. In a nutshell nothing has changed except their % holding went below a threshold with the new shares in issue.

[wanttowin] 26/8/2015 12:49

Thank you Funk, so the extra 5.4 mill equity issue diluted their holdings by .07 or more is that correct?

[funkmasterp12] 26/8/2015 12:37

The recent issue of equity presumably took them under 4%, I think.

[wanttowin] 26/8/2015 12:35

Can anyone explain todays RNS please, I don't understand any change in Slater holdings
