FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
8 October 2025
PENNANT INTERNATIONAL GROUP PLC
("Pennant", the "Company" and together with its subsidiaries the "Group")
Contract wins
Pennant International Group plc (AIM:PEN), the systems support software and
training solutions company, is pleased to announce two new contract wins
within its Training Systems segment.
In its Interim Results announcement of 16 September 2025, the Group confirmed
that it was in the advanced stages of negotiations in relation to potential
new contracts worth in excess of £10 million. The Group is pleased to confirm
that two of these opportunities have now been converted.
An order has been secured for £3.6 million from BAE Systems Australia as an
uplift to the Group's long-term agreement with BAE in region. Pennant will
supply a set of five new training systems, comprising a variant of the Group's
existing Integrated Avionics Maintenance Trainer (IAMT) device, which will
enhance maintenance training and enable the retirement of older training aids
currently supported under the contract.
The expected duration of the programme is two and a half years, and the order
provides a milestone payment plan (with stage-based cash payments) such that
the performance of the contract is not anticipated to require additional
working capital. Revenue is expected to be recognised over the 2.5-year period
in line with performance of the contract.
Additionally, the Group has been awarded a contract by a new customer - a
European aircraft equipment OEM - for the first phase of an interactive 3D
graphical training package. The initial phase of the contract is worth
approximately £0.15 million and is expected to grow to up to £0.8 million if
and when additional phases are selected. The initial phase is expected to be
completed within six months.
Negotiations relating to the other opportunities previously announced
(including the GenFly upgrade) are continuing, and the Group will provide
further updates in due course.
