Foster Wheeler (a Heebner pick) The company builds oil refineries, gas facilities and petrochemical plants, and it supplies boilers and other power equipment to utility companies. Milchovich focused on high-margin contracts and reduced the corporate staff at headquarters in Union Township from 375 people to around 80, according to Kaplowitz. "They have a strong management team and a back-to-basics approach on contracts," Kaplowitz said. "They also focused on the customer and leaning out the corporate structure." The results have been paying off. The company now has around $200 million in debt and a share price in the high double digits after record profits in 2006. And Foster Wheeler is on track to beat last year's results, despite reporting lower earnings yesterday because of a reserve taken for an old project in Ireland. "The company had an all-time record year in 2006, and we are at a pace to be significantly better in 2007 and set another record," Milchovich said during an interview. "What matters is the earnings we deliver. "There are people who have been here 30 years who have never seen (energy and power plant) markets this strong." Kaplowitz, the Lehman Brothers analyst, expects the company to earn $6.15 a share this year, up from $2.83 last year, and $7 next year. His price target on the stock is $126. nj.com
