So bought more Entertainment One (ETO) - a fantastic share which I think has another 100-200p upside this year. In particular its library of shows continues to boom in value.

600 Group PLC (LON:SIXH)‘s stock had its “corporate” rating reissued by research analysts at FinnCap in a report released on Wednesday, Analyst Ratings.Net reports. They currently have a GBX 27 ($0.42) target price on the stock. FinnCap’s target price would indicate a potential upside of 62.41% from the stock’s previous close.

Inland Homes PLC using EPIC code LON:INL had its stock rating noted as ‘Reiterates’ with the recommendation being set at ‘HOLD’ this morning by analysts at finnCap. Inland Homes PLC are listed in the Financials sector within AIM. finnCap have set their target price at 80 GBX on its stock. This would imply the analyst believes there is a potential upside of 14.7% from today’s opening price of 69.75 GBX. Inland Homes PLC LON:INL has a 50 day moving average of 68.69 GBX and the 200 Day Moving Average price is recorded at 61.05 GBX. The 52 week high share price is 73.5 GBX while the 52 week low for the stock is 43 GBX.

Entertainment One should also prosper as it shepherds Peppa Pig into overseas markets, invests in higher-margin production and snaps up acquisitions to expand its global footprint.

We expect mounting demand for connected TVs and a strong product range to buoy Amino

since this was last at 11p, looks like an upward trend is taking shape.

Could be the start of a rally given results out in a couple of weeks.

PLANNING chiefs in Southampton have given the green light to £40m plans that will overhaul the city’s former Meridian television studio site. Inland Homes handed in its proposals for the Meridian Gardens development last year and last night councillors unanimously gave the thumbs up for the proposals which will transform the derelict site. The firm will create 350 homes, a convenience store and a new park on the back of the River Itchen after councillors on the planning committee accepted the recommendation by council officers to vote in favour of the scheme. Matt Tucker, Labour ward councillor for Bargate, said: “This site is an absolute eyesore in its current form, so I am pleased to see we have a workable scheme.” The approval for outline permission came despite concerns from the Southampton Common and Parks Protection Society, over the failure to use this as an opportunity to provide an open space along the riverside. However, council officers told the meeting that the developers had looked at all options for the open space and they viewed that the best place for it was further back, where there is more sunlight. The plans however will improve the current pathway along the riverside.

Shares in another constituent of my 2015 Bargain share portfolio, Aim-traded online gaming company Netplay TV (NPT:9.5p) has seen director share buying, too. Andrew Lapping, a non-executive director, bought 175,000 shares at 8.4p each at the end of last week and now directly holds almost 1.3m shares in addition to 832,737 ordinary shares in his SIPP. The Hamilton Portfolio Limited and Northern Edge Limited, both companies of which Mr Lapping is a director, have interests in almost 1.7m shares between them which means that Mr Lapping has an aggregate beneficial interest of 3.79m shares representing 1.28 per cent of the issued share capital. Investors have taken note and the shares have edged up to around 9.5p, well above the 8.35p level at which I included them in this year's portfolio. The company paid a 0.33p a share final dividend earlier this month too. It's worth noting that the company has just appointed Shore Capital as its nominated adviser and corporate broker. That could be significant in light of the fact that Netplay's board aim to use the company's net funds to make profitable and cash generative acquisitions. At the end of 2014, the company had a burgeoning cash pile of £12.1m - excluding player deposits - worth just over 4p a share, a sum equating to 42 per cent of the current share price. So although analysts forecast Netplay will report pre-tax profits of £2.7m on revenues of £26.1m this year to generate EPS of 0.9p, if the board use the cash pile wisely then we could be inline for some significant profit and earnings upgrades. But even without them the shares are still only rated on six times cash adjusted earnings and offer a solid 5.8 per cent dividend year based on last year's raised payout of 0.55p a share. We will have to wait another few weeks for Netplay's second-quarter trading update, but with the company revealing in its full-year results in March that its strategy to enhance returns from existing customers through better retention rates and higher spending is working, and new player acquisition and marketing spend is more selective, then I believe we can expect a performance inline with analysts' estimates. Mr Lapping certainly would not have been buying if the company was underperforming. Trading on a modest six times cash adjusted earnings, I continue to rate Netplay's shares a value buy on a bid-offer spread of 9p to 9.5p. From a technical perspective, a share price move above the February high of 10.75p would be confirmation that the multi-month base formation which started last autumn is finally complete. Buy.

Bullish on this stock & expect a further re-rate. http://www.fool.co.uk/investing/2015/06/22/3-aim-stocks-for-the-next-20-years-asos-plc-tristel-plc-omg-plc/

IMO the SP should challenge new highs leading up to the results at the end of July. I would be hoping for north of 80p come the autumn & wouldn't be surprised by 3 figures this time next year. BOL

PLANNING chiefs in Southampton are set to decide on £40m plans to overhaul the city’s former Meridian television studio site. Inland Homes handed in its proposals for the Meridian Gardens development last year and now the developer will face councillors at a meeting tomorrow. The firm wants to create 350 homes, a convenience store and a new park on the banks of the River Itchen and city council planners have recommended that the proposals are given the green light. The site was well-known in the city for its long connection with television broadcasting, with ITV contractors Southern, TVS and finally Meridian all based at the site for decades. But 2008 saw the end of broadcasting at the site after a £4.5billion merger between Meridian’s owners Granada and Carlton, and the subsequent decision to close the site. Since then the site has lain derelict, and two previous schemes were put forward but never got close to fruition. First Oakdene Homes wanted to build a £100million complex with 500 apartments, commercial space and a 27-storey tower. And then, after Oakdene went into administration in 2009, the Royal Bank of Scotland’s commercial property wing West Register proposed another plan for 250 homes, but again the plans did not come to anything. Inland Homes’ plans are for 351 homes, divided between 145 one-bed, 174 two-bed and eight three-bed apartments, as well as 12 three-bed “duplex” units and 12 three-bed houses.

(INL: 71p), the specialist housebuilder and brownfield land developer, has pulled off a major land deal at its Drayton Garden Village development in west London. The company has sold 205 residential plots with planning permission to a major housebuilder for a cash consideration of £19m. Completion is scheduled for later this month. This is the second major land deal in less than a month as the company previously announced the sale of 230 residential plots with planning permission across three brownfield sites at Queensgate in Farnborough, Gerrards Cross in Buckinghamshire and Woolwich in East London for total sale proceeds amounting to £20m. These deals can only highlight the significant value in the company’s land bank of 4,500 plots. Indeed, excluding Inland’s investment in the former MoD site at Wilton Park, Beaconsfield and other joint ventures, the open market value of the company’s 1,656 plots of owned land could easily be in excess of £80,000 a plot, or more than double the carrying value in the company’s last set of accounts. The difference between book value and open market value on these land holdings alone is around £70m, a sum worth 35p per Inland share. In turn, it’s really not that difficult to make a case that once you mark all the company’s land holdings to market value, including the value tied up in land under option, then Inland’s underlying net asset value per share could be three times the 33.3p figure in its last set of accounts. Moreover, as land is sold, and the hidden value of these land assets in the accounts is crystallised, then expect the company to make substantial profits. For instance, following the Drayton Garden Village disposal, analyst Nick Spoliar at brokerage WH Ireland upgraded his pre-tax profit estimate from £12m to £15m to produce EPS of 4.9p for the 12 months to June 2015. In fiscal 2014, Inland reported profits of £8.6m and EPS of 2.87p, so expect profit and earnings growth of north of 70 per cent when the company reports its final results in a few months time. We can also expect some decent upgrades to fiscal 2016 earnings estimates in due course too. So with the shares making headway towards my 80p conservative year-end target price, and trading 30 per cent below analysts’ sum-of-the-parts valuations, I would continue to run your huge profits. Please note that I included Inland’s shares as one of my 2013 Bargain shares at 23.5p (‘How the 2013 Bargain shares fared, 7 February 2014), and have remained positive ever since. I last advised running profits when the share price was 64p (‘Decision time’, 16 April 2015).

Bonus special dividend should give the SP a little kick-up today.

(INL) has completed the development of its Drayton Garden Village site with the sale of 205 residential plots with planning consent for £19m. Demand for the group's land and the houses that it builds itself means that it expects to significantly beat current consensus estimates for profits in the year to this June of around £12.7m. In the report that accompanied interim results in March, Inland stated that it was in advanced negotiations to sell these plots to an institutional investor in the private rented sector. But these negotiations were suspended after a major housebuilder made a significantly bigger offer. Chief executive Stephen Wicks indicated that, while it is unfortunate that the sale to the institutional investor didn't go through, he hopes to continue discussions with the investor in respect of other sites within its land bank. Business is business, although this is probably the first time in the current cycle that advanced discussions have been pulled as a result of a late and better offer. It's good news for Inland though, with interested parties keen to get their hands on land that Inland has brought through the planning process. At 70p, the shares are already up significantly from our recent buy tip (57p, 19 February 2015), but profits are set to double again in the year to June, so there could also be an advance on the dividend payout too. Buy.

Thanks Stuart, interesting.

News of the depature of Trifast (TRI) boss Jim Barker, who spearheaded the industrial fasteners specialist's transformation into a fully-fledged growth company, sent its shares down 2 per cent. Yet a 58 per cent surge in underlying operating profit for the year to March suggests he's leaving the engineer in great shape. A focus on attracting international component manufacturers played a key role in the year's success. These customers now account for over 60 per cent of group sales - up from 40 per cent last financial year. Chairman Malcolm Diamond sees room for further gains, as he reckons Trifast has only captured about a quarter of large corporations looking to consolidate their supplier base. Trifast also boosted its exposure to the domestic appliances sector - notably via the acquisition of Italy-based VIC - while continuing to post gains in other markets. In Europe it offset tepid demand from Nordic oil and gas clients with a raft of new automotive projects, achieving a 16 per cent increase in constant-currency sales. The strong top-line growth, coupled with the benefits of a new commercial team, a single UK management structure and two new automated storage systems, helped widen the underlying operating margin by 2.4 points to 9.9 per cent. Broker Peel Hunt expects adjusted EPS of 9.3p in the year to March 2016 (from 8.7p in FY 2015). Shares in Trifast are already up a third since our buy tip (95p, 22 Jan 2015), yet still trade at a discount to peers on 14 times forecast earnings. There's enough value there to offset fears about the impact of Mr Barker's departure, particularly as he's set to be replaced by his right-hand man, finance director Mark Belton. Buy.

Nice update from INL today.

Nice sale & expecting profit to be significantly above market expectations.
