e2v secures contract wins worth £10.7m
e2v technologies announces three key contracts wins worth a total of £10.7m.
The contracts span e2v's sensors and electronic tubes businesses.
The largest contract, worth £6.1m, is to supply vital defence electronic subsystems, utilising e2v's electronic tube technology, to the UK Ministry of Defence. Delivery is required within a 6-month timescale, with opportunities for further orders from future contract phases.
e2v also won a £1.5m contract to supply sensors for the second tranche of the Eurofighter-Typhoon missile approach warning system. The order comes via EADS Deutschland and follows e2v's successful completion of the programme's first tranche.
e2v's third contract win is worth £3.1m and covers the ongoing supply of marine radar electronic tubes and sensor components to Alphatron Electronic Parts BV. Headquartered in Holland, Alphatron is a global distributor for e2v and supplies e2v's marine products to the after-sales market through offices in every continent.
Keith Attwood, Chief Executive of e2v said:
'With these contracts we remain confident that we can meet our existing expectations of a traditionally stronger second half across both our electronic tube and sensors product groups.'
