PROFILE |
 |
Dozing on the job is right up Western Power & Equipment Corp.'s (WPEC) alley, since it sells, rents, and services bulldozers and other construction, industrial, and agricultural equipment. WPEC handles equipment made by CNH Global (Case equipment) and more than 45 other manufacturers. Items include backhoes, excavators, skid steer loaders, compactors, and related parts and accessories. Customers include contractors, government agencies, and other construction operators. Rental operator American United Global owns about 60% of WPEC. WPEC called off a reverse merger that would have allowed high-tech firm e-Mobile to go public without as much regulatory scrutiny. Management is planning to take WPEC private.
