Peterhouse

Article Abstract:

Peterhouse was set up after a reverse takeover of Shorco, a specialist in safety equipment, and has since seen a threefold rise in its stock price. The company has acquired Jackson, a civil engineer, and aims to acquire Eve, a power transmissions concern. Totty is Peterhouse's construction arm, and is performing well in terms of profit margins. There is also an environmental services division which has grown strongly, with activities including data gathering and leakage detection for water utilities.

Building a new future

Article Abstract:

Peterhouse is a United Kingdom construction company which is seeking to growth both organically and through acquisitions. Totty Construction is that main Peterhouse company, and Totty holds a strong order book. The group is also involved in environmental services which is a small part of the group's activities, but is a fast-growing activity due to tougher UK environmental legislation. Peterhouse's profit is forecast at 3 million pounds sterling for 1998 by Williams de Broe.
