Hamworthy plc, a world leader in the design and manufacture of innovative marine and offshore fluid handling systems, is pleased to announce that at the inaugural AIM Investment Awards held in London on 14 June 2007, the Group won the prestigious awards of ‘AIM Company of the Year’ and ‘Best AIM Website’. These awards were presented to Paul Crompton, Finance Director.
The AIM Investment Awards were founded to highlight the companies and advisors that have made AIM a better place for investors. Unlike other awards, they are chosen entirely by investors. Eight of the awards were chosen by a special panel of institutional investors and four were chosen by readers of Investors Chronicle.
The success of winning ‘AIM Company of the Year’ recognises Hamworthy as a business that has displayed a combination of all the key attributes for an AIM investment: a clear strategy, strong leadership, focus on shareholder value, delivery on promises, good M&A strategy and a strong share price performance.
Hamworthy is also delighted to be recognised for its online investor relations service for existing and prospective shareholders. The Group is committed to using the internet as a prime channel for ensuring an open and transparent dialogue with its investor audience. The award demonstrates Hamworthy as being exemplary in anticipating, and responding to, the increasing role of corporate websites in strengthening investor relations.
