AGM Statement

Radstone Technology PLC 07 September 2005 For Immediate Release 7 September 2005 Radstone Technology PLC Annual General Meeting Chairman's Statement Speaking at today's Annual General Meeting of Radstone Technology PLC ("Radstone"), the world's leading independent supplier of high-performance, embedded computer products for defence and aerospace applications, the Chairman, Rhys Williams made the following Statement: "At the AGM last year we welcomed Octec Limited to the Group. This year it is pleasing to report that they have recently been selected to supply the ballistics predictor and auto-tracker for a new automated 30mm gun to equip Royal Navy Type 23 frigates. This is part of the program to improve defences against the threat from fast inshore attack craft and validates our belief that Octec's products are well placed to help combat this and other so called asymmetric threats. Group sales in the first five months of the year were 21% above the corresponding period last year. Excluding Octec, acquired at the beginning of July 2004 and SensorCom, disposed of in March 2005, the like for like increase was 20%. Revenue in the first half of last year was depressed by production and supply issues that were resolved in the third quarter. We continue to increase our investment in development to take advantage of a record level of enquiries from customers. This increased expenditure, combined with a dollar hedged at a weaker rate, lead us to expect that the loss for the half year will be similar to that reported in the prior year. New orders have sustained the order book at a record level which underpins the Group's prospects for the full year as a whole."
