Wonderful stuff - loads of upside here given the cash pile now up to $15.5m....

The cash balance as of 31 March 2018 was $15.5m, up $0.2m compared to 31 March 2017. Market conditions have stabilised during the year to 31 March 2018 with the number of drilling rigs operating in North America rising from approximately 840 at the start of April 2017 to the current level of approximately 1,000. The price of West Texas Intermediate oil has risen from around $49 per barrel at the start of the financial year to around $67 currently. Enteq has continued to invest in its manufacturing capabilities, product development and increasing its rental fleet during the year. Enteq has also continued to develop markets outside North America, including further operational success in Saudi Arabia and the fulfillment of the initial contract in Indonesia relating to geothermal drilling announced in December 2017. Enteq has further improved operational efficiency and enhanced customer interaction through transferring electronic component manufacturing from leased premises in California to the Enteq's owned Houston facility. In light of these improved market conditions, prudent management and Enteq's ongoing investments Enteq is well positioned to take advantage of potential opportunities. The Company expects to report its full year results for the year ended 31 March 2018 on 13 June 2018."

Up another 2.6% so far to 96.5p, but still only on a current year P/E of 8.6 - and lots of upside to all the analyst target prices of between 130p and 175p.

Since Vauxhall seemingly aren't yet a client of VLE's Impetus Auto subsidiary, I'd have thought the news that they are restructuring all of their UK dealerships may well be one of the opportunities previously mentioned for Impetus. The dealerships involved will according to the Times in the majority "be taken back on new contracts", or take on other brands or move into �another avenue of the motor industry�: Https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/business/vauxhall-cancels-all-uk-dealer-contracts-n5hb0r939 All this restructuring may well provide nice potential for Impetus.

Good news.... Https://www.safecharge.com/press-releases/grand-national-2018-online-transactions-soar-safecharge-payments-platform/ "April 17, 2018 Grand National 2018 Online Transactions Soar on SafeCharge Payments Platform SafeCharge, a leading payments technology company, today announces that it recorded an increase of 60% in number of processed transactions for Saturday�s Grand National, the biggest race in the British horseracing calendar, compared to last year�s event. With over �200m in bets placed each year during this event, SafeCharge payments data suggests that Grand National bets are significantly increasing in payment processing volumes, challenging payment processing infrastructures just like Valentine�s Day or Black Friday. This year, SafeCharge payments data shows that the peak number of transactions processed per second soared by 118%, whilst the value of bets placed throughout the race increased by more than 60% compared to the 2017 event. Furthermore, the speed at which transactions were processed through SafeCharge�s payments platform increased by more than 10%, highlighting the need to rely on a robust processing architecture able to guarantee zero downtime and an always-on approach. �Our data suggests that the volume of online transactions being processed during the Grand National, as well as the speed these are being processed, is increasing significantly year-on-year to become the de-facto method for placing bets at this major event. This obviously puts strain on payments infrastructure which needs to be up to the task,� said David Avgi, CEO, SafeCharge. �We are proud to support payment processing for some of the most prestigious and best-known operators at the Grand National. Our technical expertise and robust payments architecture is trusted by the biggest names in the industry, with a solid track record going back to 2007.� �The Grand National is a landmark event for online betting, attracting huge numbers of players every year,� stated Jim Noakes, Head of Strategic Development and Optimisation at Ladbrokes Coral. �The robustness, scalability and quality of SafeCharge�s Payments Engine has been instrumental to deliver an unparalleled user experience for our customers at the event.�

Good to see Seymour Civil being shortlisted for several awards, but I like these comments in particular: Http://seymourcec.co.uk/news/seymour-civil-engineering-dominates-industry-awards/ "Kevin added: "The past 12 months have been fantastic for Seymour Civil Engineering. We have started work on a number of really exciting, wide ranging projects across a number of industries for public and private clients located right across the North East, further cementing our position as a leading independent civil engineering firm in the region."

Featured here as a buying opportunity: Https://www.fool.co.uk/investing/2018/04/05/2-cheap-neil-woodford-dividend-stocks-id-buy-for-my-isa-today/ "2 cheap Neil Woodford dividend stocks I�d buy for my ISA today Roland Head | Thursday, 5th April, 2018 This could be safer than housing If you�d like some exposure to UK property but are concerned about the housing market, student accommodation specialist Watkin Jones (LSE: WJG) could be an ideal alternative. The Watkin Jones share price rose by nearly 4% in early trade this morning after confirming it�s on track to meet full-year expectations. All of the student developments due for delivery by summer 2018 have now been pre-sold to landlords, as have some of those due for completion by summer 2019. In total, the company has secured planning approval for over 8,300 �beds� from its pipeline of 9,800 beds. Watkin�s build-to-rent housing business is also growing. The pipeline of sites with planning approval has risen to 700 homes during the six months to 31 March. The firm now expects to build 1,500 homes over the next five years. Why I�d buy The shares have fallen by about 15% since mid-January, when chief executive Mark Watkin Jones announced plans to stand down after 15 years in charge. I�m not too concerned by this. His departure is being carefully managed and he intends to remain available to the firm for advice. I think the weakness we�ve seen so far this year could be a buying opportunity. Unlike conventional housebuilders, this business is focused on the more buoyant student accommodation sector, which should provide stable long-term demand. Alongside this, the company builds houses for large rental landlords, another area where demand is growing. Taken together, I expect these operations to provide fairly reliable profits. And with the shares now trading on just 12 times forecast earnings and offering a 4% dividend yield, I believe this stock deserves a buy rating."
