Enova President and CEO Mike Staran stated, "2010 resulted in quarter after quarter positive gross margin growth, responsible cash management and core customer growth. Exciting partnerships with companies like LG Chemical further confirm our technology and allow us to penetrate incremental opportunities within the expanding market."
A subsidiary of LG Chemical will supply battery packs for Enova’s charge sustaining post-transmission hybrid drive systems. This deal could open up some doors for Enova considering LG includes GM, Volvo, Ford, Renault, Eaton and Navistar as customers.
Big move today and maybe it has some more left it in, but I would absolutely not chase it up here. These kinds of news driven surges have a way of retracing quite a bit. If it can retrace at least half this move, I might consider a position.
