28/8/2022 14:22 | The answer is, as a wise old SAC trader once told me, because “this game is rigged to the upside”. The upshot here is that if one is underweight stocks right now, set a target price or range where you will add equity exposure and do your best to stick to it.

28/8/2022 09:37 | Markets about to get quite choppy, this will see wood below 100p with court case uncertainty and current sentiment. No shorts here, may be a buy at 50p for the brave. Not one for widows and orphans though. Very sad that Ian Wood can't come out and defend his management and directors. | chutes01 | |
28/8/2022 09:35 | I would be wary, this appears on verge of bankruptcy after SFO fine - &40 mio per year, and a string of court cases, latest being in Texas for $700 mio.

26/8/2022 20:37 | From the FT Investors’ Chronicle: PureTech, RM, Wood Group Companies analysis from our sister publication HOLD: Wood Group (WG.) The energy services and engineering group is looking to upcoming divestment to clear its debt pile, writes Alex Hamer. A year into this supply-constrained, high-demand period for oil and gas, Wood Group has remained heavily indebted and dividend free. The group thinks its focus on cash generation will bear fruit, though, and the sale of its built environment consulting division for $1.6bn (£1.38bn) should knock off the debt issue. Helpfully, its lenders increased their covenants so hitting a net debt-adjusted Ebitda ratio of 4.2 times did not bring the cavalry running at the June measurement date. Wood said the built environments sale cash should come through by the time the covenant goes back to 3.5 times. Investors will get a clearer picture of the group under new chief executive (and former chief operating officer) Ken Gilmartin, who took over the top job last month, once the group’s new strategy is released in November. He said his first weeks in the role had come at a time of “improving operational momentum. The strong order book gives me confidence for the future but there is a lot more to do on cash generation,” he said. The group has already started a move away from large-scale projects and this hurt sales for the period, although the operations unit overtook projects to become the biggest contributor in terms of revenue, at $1.2bn. The idea behind taking on fewer lump-sum projects is to smooth out revenue and avoid contracts that end up being lossmaking. That doesn’t mean new deals haven’t come in group-wide — Wood signed a decade-long “engineering and project support” agreement with Chevron, as well an extension with Equinor for work on its North Sea operations. In the first half, there was a free cash outflow of $363mn, driven by a $208mn working capital outflow and exceptional costs of $102mn. This last figure included $38mn in payments after a Serious Fraud Office probe into 2017 Wood acquisition Amec Foster Wheeler, with another two payments of a similar size to come. Another regulatory headache that has popped up this year is around a former Amec project, a chemical plant in Texas. Enterprise Products is after $700mn from Wood, and the group said a verdict was expected by year end. A settlement could still be reached, however. Analysts are forecasting a small final-year dividend, on earnings per share of 19 cents, although the consensus has become more pessimistic as the year has gone on, falling from 26 cents a year ago. While investors aren’t feeling the energy rush yet, we stick with our hold call on the basis of the balance sheet improving and massive project losses now hopefully a thing of the past. | ashkv | |

26/8/2022 18:45 | From WG 2021 Annual Report re the potential liability / Texas Chemical Plant Litigation... Chemical plant litigation In 2013, one of Amec Foster Wheeler plc’s subsidiaries was contracted to engineer, procure and construct a chemical plant for a client in Texas. The cost of the project exceeded the client’s budget which led to the client partially terminating the contract in December 2015, before terminating the remainder of the contract and commencing a lawsuit in Texas against the subsidiary and also Amec Foster Wheeler plc in September 2016. The client seeks recovery of actual damages, plus punitive damages, interest and attorney’s fees for breach of contract and warranty, gross negligence and fraud. The alleged actual damages total $761.8m, which include an alleged $317m in lost revenue from delayed commercial operation. The Group believes that the claims lack legal and factual merit but provided for an amount representing the fair value of the exposure upon acquisition of Amec Foster Wheeler. The estimate that the subsidiary provided was in connection with the client’s initial request for a lump sum bid and highly conditioned. The contract that was ultimately signed, and that governs the dispute, is a reimbursable cost plus fixed fee contract, with no guaranteed price or schedule, wherein the client assumed joint responsibility for management of the work and development of the project schedule. Liability for consequential damages is barred, except in the case of wilful misconduct. Except for gross negligence, wilful misconduct, and warranty claims, overall liability is capped at 10 percent of the contract price (or approximately $100 million). The Group has denied the claims and is vigorously defending the lawsuit. The trial of the lawsuit is scheduled to commence in late April 2022 and is expected to continue into the third quarter of this year. It is premature to predict the ultimate outcome of the matter hxxps://www.woodplc. | ashkv | |
