CB&I Drops Most in 11 Months on $3 Billion Shaw Purchase
By Thomas Black and Julie Johnsson on July 30, 2012
Chicago Bridge & Iron Co. (CBI) (CBI) fell the most in almost a year after agreeing to buy Shaw Group Inc. (SHAW) (SHAW) for about $3 billion as the energy construction and engineering company expands its nuclear building services.
The shares tumbled 14 percent to $34.94 at the close in New York, the steepest drop since Aug. 8. Shaw’s 55 percent gain to $41.49 was still short of CB&I’s $46 cash-and-stock offer, 72 percent more than the July 27 closing price.
“This is a big change in strategy” for CB&I, Chase Jacobson, a William Blair & Co. analyst in New York, said in a telephone interview. He said CB&I, based in The Hague, had described its approach to acquisitions (CBI) as being focused on smaller targets, “not more than doubling or almost tripling the company’s backlog and diversifying the entire company.”
Buying Shaw will widen CB&I’s role in the building of the first new nuclear reactors approved in the U.S. since 1978. Long plagued by cost overruns, regulatory hurdles and environmental concerns, the industry was dealt a fresh setback when reactors at Japan’s Fukushima plant melted down after a 2011 earthquake.
CB&I’s offer consists of $41 in cash and 0.12883 share for each share of Baton Rouge, Louisiana-based Shaw. The equity portion had a value of $5 a share based on the “recent average price” of $38.81 for CB&I, according to a company statement that didn’t give the period on which that figure was based.
Deal Valuation
The deal values Shaw at about 26 times earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The median paid in a survey of more than 40 similar engineering takeovers over the past decade was about 8.3 times Ebitda, the data show.
“It’s a pretty healthy price relative to trading values over the last couple of months,” Michael Dudas, a New York- based analyst at Sterne Agee & Leach Inc., said in a telephone interview. “I’m sure that’s something people are trying to get their arms around as well.”

No, but I heard about it. I don't like him talking about stocks I own either.
did you hear crammer touting this stock last night -
it pisses me off when he starts getting on my territory - means it's about time to pull the rip cord -
That is interesting. Have you seen the newest on cold fussion?
BATON ROUGE, La.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Shaw Group Inc. (NYSE: SGR - News) today announced it has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with China’s State Nuclear Power Technology Corporation (SNPTC). The agreement is a task-order based contract, which allows both companies to issue tasks to support each other in growing nuclear infrastructure businesses.
This cooperation agreement fulfills the goals of a letter of intent between the two organizations. The signing, held in Washington, D.C., on April 27, was one of many agreements concluded between U.S. and Chinese firms organized by the China Chamber of Commerce for Import Export of Machinery and Electronic Products and the United States Chamber of Commerce.
“China has announced plans to build at least 30 new nuclear power plants by 2020. This cooperation agreement is a significant step toward expanding Shaw’s already strong relationship with SNPTC to facilitate the greater use of nuclear power throughout China,” said David Barry, president of Shaw’s Nuclear Division of the Power Group.
Shaw currently is under contract with SNPTC and other Chinese organizations to provide engineering, procurement, commissioning, information management and project management services for four AP1000™ nuclear plants being built at the Haiyang nuclear power plant project in China’s Shandong province and the Sanmen nuclear power plant project in Zhejiang province.
got a big time chest bump from my boy najarian on fast money last night -
MOO!
everyone feeling bullish?
world wide heavy industrial construction is entering a secular bull -
nuclear as an investment? I am having under attention (never bought a single stock of it till now) this one:
In 1992 Thorium Power was formed to develop and deploy nuclear fuel designs developed by Dr. Alvin Radkowsky, which would not produce weapons suitable plutonium in nuclear waste. Dr. Alvin Radkowsky, one of the most respected nuclear engineers of all time, initiated and supervised more nuclear fuel core designs that were implemented and successfully operated than any other nuclear engineer in the history of the industry. To help carry out this mission, Thorium Power went to Russia in 1994 to collaborate with nuclear scientists and engineers at the prestigious "Kurchatov Institute" research center. Since the original invention by Dr. Radkowsky, the technology initially underwent extensive scientific development and evaluation, and has now for over four years-been in the engineering development phase, including technology scale-up in a live research reactor. The company is now focused on advanced testing and commercialization of the technology.
In April 2007, the company announced a strategic alliance with Red Star, a Russian government-owned entity and one of the premier nuclear design bureaus in the world, whereby Thorium Power's fuel designs will undergo additional testing and scale-up with the goal of moving toward deployment within full-sized commercial reactors. Thorium Power's development and testing has followed standard industry protocols and embarking on this next phase will accelerate activities leading to the demonstration of Thorium Power's fuel technology in lead-test assemblies for use in a full-size commercial reactor - the last technology development phase before commercial deployment into multiple power plants.

Well I definitely wouldn't be watching Donnie Douchebag so anyone on there gets by me. I'd rather keep us below the radar as well.
no, it was on either kudlow or donnie douchebag's show last evening, that's all i remember -
it's hard to find anything on nuclear as an investment right now - just like i like it :)
That is very good news for Bernhard and co. Was there a write-up on that?
CNBC last night -
china is building the equivalent of England's entire energy production for the past 30 years EVERY year right now -
coal fired plants, because they can't train nuclear plant workers fast enough -
secular bullish uranium and all that implies -
nice to see Shaw above 30 again.
Let's get some more volume to this board. As a Baton Rouge native, I have full faith in Mr. Bernhard to get the job done. I'll be taking a position (again) around 27 bucks.
this is your construction angle to the nuclear future -
MOO!
been drraggin ass on getting this IBOX uptight and right -
will have something for tomorrow morning -
this stock could flag in a few days/weeks and be an attractive opp once more -
looking to add some DD and clean up the IBOX -
america's nuclear program must be done -
you play this angle as a nuclear design/consultancy firm?

Franklin Mining, Inc. Comments on Possible Joint Venture With Y.P.F.B.
Market Wire, October, 2005
Franklin Mining, Inc. (OTC: FMNJ)
Last September we offered a joint venture to Y.P.F.B., we had a positive reply from the President of Y.P.F.B. at that time. We then traveled to Bolivia in November to start the ground work for a possible M.O.U. between Y.P.F.B. and Franklin Oil & Gas. Our offer was to install a total capacity of about 4 BCF. This was to be done in conjunction with Y.P.F.B. and the installation of the gas processing plants was to parallel the growth of the gas business in Bolivia, the marketing of the products from the plants would be marketed jointly. We estimate that these Gas Processing plants would represent an investment of about 300 million USD. The association with the Shaw Group on the New York Stock Exchange gives Franklin Oil & Gas the ability and technical expertise to make this a reality. The President and C.E.O. of Franklin Mining, Inc. will be traveling to Bolivia in late October.
Are these guys still teamed up with Franklin????????
