    It will be too early too tell in their financials. We might get some commentary around margins and competition but I doubt it. MND or LYL haven't announced any contract wins either so I might be jumping at shadows.

    When you look at the ROE for the various players you can see the attraction for MND and LYL.

    ROE:
    2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016
    MND 49.2 51.3 50.7 38.2 28.7 18.2
    LYL 35.3 37.1 31.9 6.2 -1.5 6.0
    GNG 51.7 31.1 18.3 30.4 26.6 37.2

    But ROE is a function of industry competitiveness (as well as obvious cyclicality in this industry).

    Mr Market doesn't seem to be as worried as I am though. Price / book value for GNG is currently 4.73x on my numbers. While that is ok for a company that can maintain their high ROE it is much higher than it has been historically facing into what is arguably more competition from some very respected players.

    Price / Book:
    Current 4.73x
    2016 2.90x
    2015 2.79x
    2014 2.25x
    2013 1.67x
    2012 3.20x
