We would still consider NPI primarily for income. It is up 25% this year but we would not expect that type of return on a regular basis. Valuation is now at 24X earnings, on the high side of the sector. Q2 EPS of -25c missed estimates of 14.7c. Revenue of $509M missed by 3%. EBITDA of $245.3M missed by 6%. NPI did cut its guidance for the year, citing lower wind levels in Europe. Sales in the Q2 fell by close to 4%. The quarter was not great, but hardly a disaster. The long term view looks fine, with new projects coming on board and interest rates likely to fall.
