Contract Announcement 
 
Portuguese Government approves acquisition of radios from EID 
 
Cohort, the independent technology group, notes the announcement by the
Portuguese government in its official gazette of its decision to authorise the
acquisition of tactical radios for the Portuguese Army from Cohort's
subsidiary EID. The details of the contract will be subject to negotiation,
but the approved maximum value is E7.5m, and delivery is expected to take
place between 2017 and 2023. 
 
The radios will form part of the Portuguese Army's tactical communications and
information system known as SIC-T. 
 
Andy Thomis, Chief Executive of Cohort, said: 
 
"I am delighted that EID has been selected to provide this important element
of the SIC-T system. It is a strong endorsement of EID's technical capability
and the high quality of its products. The expected contract award will enhance
the visibility of Group revenue in 2016/17 and beyond."
