david,

You are right that oil services is starting to develop a feeding frenzy. Eco seems advantageously positioned both by having its fingers in a lot of oil-related construction and services and by having a low stock price. It is possible that Eco will continue to deal off parcels of its business to become more concentrated and less diffuse. And it is also possible that another company might make them an offer with the idea of keeping some parts and selling others.
As others have pointed out, apart from the yardstick of $1.20 estimates to measure things by, Eco's performance looks very good. Given the low stock price, I think it looks great. Friday's action suggests some money was looking at it as a bargain to be accumulated. After all the dissatisfied small investors get shaken out, I think we may see some surprising strength. The parade of company news should help this along.
