Duncan Hall, analyst with house broker Finncap, has a 'buy' recommendation with a price target of 28p on the stock. In an exclusive interview with Sharecast Hall explained: "The site is on the books for £8.8m and there will be a couple of million pounds uplift from having gained planning permission. The next issue is how to unwind it? Whether to sell it off piecemeal or to one developer?"
Certainly, whichever option Inland pursues it now has the opportunity to realise the profits by disposal and recycle the cash into new sites.
Inland's shares were up 0.75p to 19.75p at 11:30.
