Outlook: Sweet spot for growth

With yet another set of strong results behind Augean, it is clear that the strategy put in place by CEO Stewart Davies is paying dividends. We believe Augean will embark on an accelerated growth strategy in the coming years, with the potential to invest c £21m (c 50% of its market cap) funded by re-leveraging its balance sheet. This, combined with management’s solid track record to improve returns, places Augean in a sweet spot to take advantage of any external growth opportunities. We see upside risk to Augean shares in the long term.
