Shares of BTG have been held back since the start of the year due to concerns regarding impending acquisitions. Nevertheless, now that these – and a 106.3m pound capital issue - are out of the way the stock should progress, says The Times’s Tempus. The company will acquire North America based Ekos and one of the business units of Nordion, for a total amount of up to 280m pounds. That for a company with a market capitalisation in the 1.1bn pound area. Critically, non-organic growth is a pillar of the firm's strategy – although this is its most ambitious step yet.
