Information Falkirk Council chooses Hargreaves Property for Falkirk Gateway project 20 FEBRUARY 2019 Falkirk Council in the UK has selected Hargreaves Property Ventures as the preferred developer for the Falkirk Gateway project. Hargreaves Property is a development partnership between Hargreaves Services and Fintry Estates. As part of the project, Hargreaves Property will build new retail, office and leisure opportunities in an area located to the east Falkirk and next to the new Forth Valley College and Falkirk Stadium. Falkirk Council received nine initial expressions of interest for Falkirk Gateway, and two developers submitted detailed plans for a final selection by an assessment panel. Work related to a ‘heads of terms’ agreement and a more detailed retail impact study will also take place. The preferred developers submitted initial plans that highlighted large-scale retail units, office and leisure areas; a hotel site; a drive-through; and food and drink units, including a concept pub/restaurant. Falkirk Council leader Cecil Meiklejohn said: “Our plans to completely redevelop this area are making great progress and with the appointment of the developer, we are a significant step closer to creating new opportunities for the local economy and jobs. “The creation of an ‘urban quarter’ at the Westfield/Middlefield site will transform the vacant area (lying between Falkirk and Grangemouth) and bring the 30-acre site into a location that will help promote economic growth. The capital receipts from the site will be ring-fenced to aid the revitalisation of town centres.” With the help of the £67m Tax Incremental Finance scheme, Falkirk Council will fund road infrastructure and enable works around the Falkirk Gateway. The scheme is expected to bring in £413m in private investments into the area and create 6,000 jobs. [link] also [link]

RNS-Historic 30 January 2019 HARGREAVES SERVICES PLC Interim Results for the six months ended 30 November 2018 HIGHLIGHTS · Revenue growth of 12%, driven by UK businesses; · Working capital increased due to growth in Distribution & Services business; · Underlying Operating Profit increased by 32%; · Improvement in Underlying Operating Profit margin to 2.4% (2017: 2.1%); · Conditional sale contract signed for first plot at Blindwells; · £8.1m exceptional loss relating to insolvency of Wolf Minerals (UK) Limited · Interim dividend maintained at 2.7p (2017: 2.7p); · Successful disposal of Brockwell Energy Limited. Commenting on the interim results, Chairman Roger McDowell said: “Whilst it is pleasing to report growth in revenue and margins from the Distribution & Services business, which is proving to be a progressive source of Underlying Operating Profit, the Group suffered a substantial loss following the failure of its tungsten mining customer, Wolf Minerals. Despite this setback, the Board is confident that the Distribution & Services business will continue to provide the Group with near term growth and cash generation whilst the Property business becomes established to realise medium and longer term shareholder value.” More via Link Below Interim Results

Director/PDMR Dealings The directors must be keen as they paid about 7% more for their shares than the listed market price yesterday! Actually the company is undervalued assuming it gets its act together producing a reasonable profit from its various business activities as the value of the Edinburgh building land alone equates to around half of present market value and we have many other surplus parcels of land. A solid hold…

Information HSP / WLFE… XXXX Thank you for replying buried my head in the sand here not wanting to take the loss . Should of gave it more thought RNS today @ 10.40 am lost the lot .

TX2 09 Oct 2018

Information I would have thought that it is probable that WLFE will fail;although Hargreaves are left with little alternative but to make the provision based on available information.They do not appear to have been paid for about 4 months by Wolf. I expect if the mine is viable it will be bought by another operator;I can’t see way anyone would take on WLFEs debts to keep it operating , but it is unlikely that it will realise enough funds to pay secured creditors.Trade creditors like Hargreaves are unlikely to be paid but a new operator might allow Hargreaves to keep on staff and save £3m closure provisions.

Information HSP… XXXX Maybe the suspension of WLFE in Australia last week or so was a big warning TX2. Are there regulators better ? Do you think after today’s fall here and the RNS WLFE will go under ?
