$3m follow-on pre-production order with US Company
Filtronic plc (AIM: FTC), the designer and manufacturer of advanced RF solutions for the space, aerospace, defence and telecoms infrastructure markets, has secured a follow-on contract for $3m with its undisclosed US-based customer in satellite communications. This supports the next phase of, and is incremental to, the $8m development programme with the same customer as announced on 26 March 2026.
Importantly, today’s award is to support the procurement of critical long lead-time components, mitigating supply chain risk and supporting the accelerated development and delivery timelines required as the programme advances. As the next step towards full commercial sales, the award represents continued customer commitment and growing confidence in the programme’s progression.
Nat Edington, Chief Executive Officer, said: “Securing this follow-on contract with the customer reflects the strength of our growing relationship with them and their continued confidence in Filtronic’s technical expertise and delivery capabilities. The commitment to secure long lead-time components to support the pre-production phase of the programme is another important step for the relationship.”
