Costain remains a good company to hold long term with plenty of new projects in the pipeline

Costain (COST) has done a good job of turning things around since I covered the shares as a long term buy and hold back in 2023, and the company now looks to be in a much better place going forwards.

Costain looks to be on the cusp of turning things around - buy

Costain (COST) has fallen on hard times over the past few years and its share price has plummeted by more than 85% from the highs it was trading at as recently as 2018, but it looks as though it has a chance of turning things around following a more promising recent performance. That is why the shares are a BUY.

…..and it seems that they staff up immigration appeals cases representing the Home Office by non-lawyers and bods who have just done a “course” with the representation of the immigrants being proper lawyers on legal aid. The softest of soft touches…..

Retail are not supposed to be able to get hold of instie research which is meant to be available only to “elective professional investors”. I don’t know though to what extent Research Tree enforce this term in their T&Cs. So Archer’s stuff is defo available and free, and where there is no meaningful broker research better to have his stuff than not.

Asleep or employing zombie staff taking the piss with multiple public-sector jobs? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqgkvdyx5d6joWords fail me. The public sector is a very soft touch.

the net income (ie profit) in H1 was $13.6m on output of sub 10,000 oz. H2 output will be 15-25,000 oz so id view it as a nailed on cert that AMRQ will report a FY profit

I don't doubt that but for me, a profitable business is one which shows a profit at FY…which we wait to see.

12,000 oz in Q3 on a 3000 gross margin - $36m. cant see how it is not as of now profitable

Well said. But it may be premature to call the company profitable in the middle of the year – especially when it was presumably putting a shine on everything for the move to the main market.
