Areva, the French nuclear power company, are preparing plans to create a new generation of nuclear power reactors following yesterdays energy review. Areva believe that the new generation of nulcear reactors are economically viable even without public subsidies and are confident the govt will pull out all the stops to ease the process by which such companies are able to submit and execute plans without overt bureaucratic procedure.

The conditions are being developed for INS to exploit the obvious volume of work that should flow from such activity in this field

The UK government is considering taking over ownership of British Energy PLC's nuclear sites to make it easier for companies such as E.ON AG, RWE AG and EDF to build new reactors, according to a report.

Ministers will prioritise such a decision following tomorrow's energy review, in which they are expected to back the construction of a new generation of nuclear power stations, the Financial Times cited a person close to the government as saying.

The government, which owns two thirds of British Energy, is expected to pre-approve sites such as Sizewell in Suffolk, Dungeness in Kent and Hinkley Point in Somerset.

Gordon Brown only two weeks ago stated his support for the renewal of Britains indep nuclear deterrent which opens up another avenue for INS to develop another income stream. The opportunities now beginning to present themselves should ensure that INS will become the leading 'nuclear boutique' for expert consultancy services.

Lets hope that Brown and Moore do the business.

morning blessings

watching like a hawk..nice premium paid for 20K+..holding 50K and MIGHT add on strength...FT.com (not seen full article) but it seems central govt have informed local govt that they must be flexible in providing planning permission for new powerstations..surely a precursor to a positive policy decision re: building new stations...lets hope so but it seems that the decision as been made if your read between the lines..

TMI article

[mattyfromtheblock] 04/7/2006 11:37

The price is looking increasingly attractive. I'm just wondering, however, AndyH78 u said a while back in post 30 "Main down side for me is that 90% of turnover currently comes from Sellafield, and the contracts for refurbishment of Sellafield aren't being shelled out until 2012 (again, I think)". Was just wondering where you got this information from as I didn't see those terms in the RNS. Thanks

Robotic Technology S Robotic Tech says H1 trading fell short of same period last yr
LONDON (AFX) - Robotic Technology Systems PLC said trading in the first half
of the year fell short of the same period in 2005 for both its businesses and
expects trading results for its life sciences arm to be significantly below the
company's expectations.

The Momentum Investor's main recommendation was in fact INS in the July edition. They described the company as a 'Huge nuclear decommissioning opportunity' although INS have much more in there armoury other than just decomm. expertise.

Blair will set out the governments position and future policy regarding the building of further nuclear powerstations this month so I believe we are right at the beginning of the development of a company that will prove profitable for its shareholders. It is hoped that Blair will find in favour of further nuclear power expansion. INS must be licking their lips with all the national and global opportunities at their disposal.

Collins Stewart are forecasting a PTP of £2.3m (EPS 2.6) for 2006 rising to £2.6M (2.9) for 2007. Prosp PE of 14.4 - cheap entry for a company whose earnings will certainly leap as further contracts are secured

Now its a £70bn clean up operation !

Saw Tony Moore present at a Nuclear conference alongside peers from likes of AMEC, Carillion, Serco etc. He strikes me as a very capable guy and happy that he is now in control of his own destiney rather than being subsumed within RTS.



He could grow this company very quickly thru organic and acquisition means. Especially with a backdrop of political support the investors will be there to back him. Cleanest nuclear play in UK market.

[mattyfromtheblock] 30/6/2006 14:08

Looks like an interesting company here lads. Was just wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of histories and bios of Chris Brown and Tony Moore and any of the other INS management. Can't seem to find too much on them. Keep gettin some 16 year old rapper come up when I look for Chris Brown!

Staff numbers at 31st December 2005 totalled 225 (both employees and agency) - this represents c.10% of the UK nuclear engineering workforce. In order to strengthen its competitive positioning, INS has developed a number of initiatives to attract and develop staff from other industries together with a graduate recruitment initiative.

INS has significantly improved its operating margin since 2003 following strong cost control.

UPDATES

In June 2006, INS was awarded a 3 year Framework Agreement from British Nuclear Group for design/engineering work on the Mixed Oxide Fuel ('MOX') facility at Sellafield - the contract is expected to be worth £8 million.


Research Standing
A long established company in what looks to be an emerging growth sector. It also has appeal because of the proactive approach which it takes to increasing the UK pool of nuclear engineers (which has a shortage) and to accessing new technology via proactive corporate venturing.

The company broker's note dated 10th April projects EPS of 2.6p for 2006, 2.9p for 2007 and 3.3p for 2008 representing P/Es of 15.4, 13.8 and 12.1 respectively based on the share price of 40p at 26th June. Full report at
