Bovis Homes Group PLC
 PROFILE
Bovine? Not Bovis. The far-from-placid UK homebuilder Bovis Homes Group -- whose logo is a hummingbird -- has a fast-moving growth strategy. Spun off in 1997 from Bovis Construction (then a subsidiary of cruise ship owner P&O), Bovis Homes is looking to expand nationally by acquiring other homebuilders. It plans to add operations in the North and Northwest regions to complement its traditional stronghold in the South of England. The company builds for the midrange housing market, completing about 2,400 homes per year; its average house price is about £109,000. Bovis Homes' strongest asset is its land inventory of more than 10,330 plots (a four-year supply), one of the largest in the UK industry.
