Further significant North American order intake
Hardide (AIM: HDD), the provider of advanced surface treatment technology, is
pleased to confirm it has secured a further £1.8m of new orders from the
major North American energy sector customer referred to in the announcements
of 1 December 2025 and 3 February 2026, which will be delivered mostly over
the course of the current financial year.
These orders lead the Board to expect a further material improvement in
revenues and performance for the current financial year to 30 September 2026
as against previous expectations.
Hardide is in discussions with this customer regarding establishing a
framework arrangement and schedule for the future that will support the
customer's own business development ambitions and supply requirements.

"We are delighted to receive these additional new orders. This should enable
Hardide to achieve its first strategic milestone of at least doubling
financial year 2024 revenues, ahead of target, during the current financial
year and enable us to leverage the benefits of much higher capacity
utilisation".
