Avingtrans wins £5m aerospace contract

Avingtrans (AIM:AVG), which designs, manufactures and supplies critical components, modules and associated services to the aerospace, energy and medical sectors, has announced that Sigma Components, part of its aerospace division, has signed a contract worth £5m of revenue over five years to supply fabricated assemblies to Sonaca for the Airbus, Bombardier and Embraer programmes.

The five-year contract with Sonaca in Belgium was signed during the Paris Air Show and will be managed from the company's Farnborough site. The contract will see Sigma becoming the sole supplier to Sonaca for critical assemblies in the anti-icing systems of several programmes.

Mark Johnson, managing director of Sigma Components, said: "This contract is great news for the Farnborough business that we acquired in 2012 and reflects well on the team that have earned the trust of Sonaca to award us this contract.

"Sigma has been very active at the Paris Air Show this week, opening up new opportunities and building on the Sigma brand and the new technologies we have been developing."

Avingtrans said Tuesday it had acquired Tecmag for a total of $0.24m net of debt boosting the companys ability to produce magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance systems.

Tecmag, based in Houston, Texas, designed, manufactured, tested and installed instrumentation, including full consoles, system upgrades, and solid-state probes, mainly for magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance systems, Avingtrans said.

The acquisition would integrate Tecmag's expertise in consoles and spectrometers with that of Scientific Magnetics, acquired by the Avingtans in February last year, in the area of superconducting magnets and cryogenics.

The combination of these two businesses would allow Avingtrans and its partners to produce complete magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance systems.

Component supplier Avingtrans booked a deeper annual loss as rising revenue was more than offset by costs associated with its acquisition of electric motor and pump producer Hayward Tyler.

Pre-tax losses for the year through May amounted to £4.5m, compared to a loss of £285k on-year.

Revenue more than tripled £78.9m. On an organic basis, which stripped out the acquisition, revenue rose 11%.

Operating loss increased to £3.8m, mainly due to the significant Hayward Tyler exceptional costs for the acquisition, 'right-sizing and restructuring' and the 'amortisation of intangibles from business combinations'.

'With an eye on eventual exits, we have restructured the Group into two separate energy divisions and an incubator medical division,' chairman Roger McDowell said.

'A highlight of FY2018 was the speedy and successful integration of the substantial Hayward Tyler Group acquisition.'

'The new energy divisional structures and management teams have become effective quickly and their focus is clearly on growth, to build two formidable and valuable divisions.'

'The nascent medical division made slower progress, though we have galvanised our strategic path by partnering on service with MR Resources.'
