Augean - Improving underlying cash flow

No immediate resolution to the dispute with HMRC over landfill taxes is expected and, in the absence of clarity as to the timing and scale of any potential payments, Augean’s management continues to take firm action to improve the strength of the business (disposals/cost control). The difference in market capitalisation between a share price of 25p and our DCF valuation of c 70p/share equates to c £47m and compares to the total of HMRC assessments received so far of £12m (five assessments).
