ROLLS-ROYCE WINS GBP45M CONTRACT FROM HYUNDAI TO DESIGN AND EQUIP
FOUR OFFSHORE VESSELS

Rolls-Royce, the global power systems company, has today received an order from
Korean shipbuilder Hyundai Mipo Dockyard Co, Ltd. to design and equip four
deepwater platform supply vessels.

The contract is worth more than GBP45 million to Rolls-Royce and includes options
for a further two vessels of the same type.

The vessel designs are UT 776 CD - a development of the popular Rolls-Royce
UT 700 series, designed specifically for supplying equipment and services to
deepwater oil and gas platforms.

Jørn Heltne, Rolls-Royce, Senior Vice President Ship Technology Offshore, said:

"Rolls-Royce UT design vessels are the benchmark in the deep water offshore
oil and gas sector, combining proven ship design with leading edge marine
technology. This latest order develops our long term relationship with Hyundai
as a builder of these advanced vessels, designed to operate safely in the most
challenging conditions."

enter into this deepwater market segment by building offshore vessels of a
world leading design from Rolls-Royce."

The 4,400 tonne, 97 metre long vessels will feature a range of Rolls-Royce
equipment including a diesel-electric propulsion system which improves fuel
efficiency and lowers emissions when operating at reduced power levels. The
propulsion system meets current Clean Design standards - an industry-specific
range of stringent environmental and safety requirements that, through the
design of the vessel, reduce emissions to sea and air.

The vessels will be built at the Hyundai's shipyard in Ulsan, Korea, and are
due to be delivered in 2013 and 2014.

INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

Today, Rolls-Royce Holdings plc publishes an Interim Management Statement.

Current trading consistent with guidance

Trading since the start of the year is consistent with the guidance provided in
our Full Year Report in February. For the full year, the Group continues to
expect good growth in underlying revenue and underlying profit with cash flow
around breakeven as we continue to invest in future growth. Guidance excludes
the impact of the Tognum acquisition and the proposed sale of the Group's 32.5%
shareholding in International Aero Engines (IAE).

The Group's balance sheet remains strong. Recognising this, Standard & Poor's
Ratings Services has raised its long and short term corporate credit ratings to
`A/A-1' from `A-/A-2', with a stable outlook.

A consistent strategy delivering shareholder value

Since announcing preliminary results in February, Rolls-Royce has achieved some
important milestones. The Trent XWB engine took to the skies for the first
time, on board an Airbus A380 flying test bed. In Singapore, we opened our new
manufacturing and training facilities that will produce wide chord fan blades
and assemble and test large commercial jet engines.

Rolls-Royce continues to invest across the Group in technology, capability and
facilities to deliver on our current commitments, to improve productivity and
to create opportunities for future growth.

The Group will report its interim results for the six month period ending 30
June 2012 on 26 July 2012.

ROLLS-ROYCE WINS $136 MILLION CONTRACT TO SUPPLY
INDUSTRIAL TRENTS TO DOLPHIN ENERGY LTD

Rolls-Royce, the global power systems company, has been awarded contracts worth
$136 million to supply technology and long-term services support to Dolphin
Energy Limited which transports natural gas from Qatar to the United Arab
Emirates and Oman via a 364 km subsea pipeline.

Andrew Heath, Rolls-Royce, President - Energy said: "I am delighted that
Rolls-Royce technology has again been selected to support the Dolphin Gas
Project, one of the largest cross border energy infrastructure projects ever
undertaken in the Middle East. The supply of three new Rolls-Royce Trent gas
turbines to Dolphin Energy is testimony to the six units already installed on
the project. To date, these have recorded over 150,000 operating hours,
transporting billions of standard cubic feet of gas to meet the energy needs of
the UAE and Oman."

Rolls-Royce will supply Dolphin Energy Limited with three industrial Trent gas
turbine compression packages. The three new Trent units, each rated at 52
megawatts, will join six similar Rolls-Royce packages that went into service at
Dolphin Energy's Gas Processing Plant in Ras Laffan, Qatar in 2006.

In addition to selecting Rolls-Royce energy technology, Dolphin Energy Limited
has signed a TotalCare® long-term equipment service agreement designed to
increase equipment availability and reliability.

The equipment will be manufactured and packaged at the Rolls-Royce facilities
in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and Mount Vernon, Ohio, U.S.A.

Delivery of the packaged units to Ras Laffan will be in the second and third
quarters of 2013.

ROLLS-ROYCE AWARDED £100 MILLION SUPPORT CONTRACTS FOR UK TRANSPORT AND TANKER FLEETS

Rolls-Royce, the global power systems company, has secured contract extensions,
which will see the company provide ongoing support for engines on the UK's
C-130 Hercules transport and VC10 tanker fleets. The contracts are worth almost
£100 million to Rolls-Royce.

Following this amendment, the Hercules Integrated Operational Support (HIOS)
contract, which is delivered jointly by Rolls-Royce, Marshall Aerospace and
Lockheed Martin, will provide support for the C-130 fleet until 2015.

Rolls-Royce teams in the UK and Indianapolis in the US provide comprehensive
servicing for the AE 2100D3 engine, which powers the C-130J aircraft and the
T56 engine on the C-130K.

Paul Craig, Rolls-Royce, Executive Vice President Services - Defence,
commented: "This contract amendment is testimony to the standard of service
delivered to-date and reflects the value we offer to our customer. We take
pride in supporting the Royal Air Force's fleet of C-130s and in our successful
partnership with Lockheed Martin, Marshall Aerospace and the Ministry of
Defence."

"It is particularly pleasing that we have continued to deliver high levels of
aircraft availability at a time when both the C-130 and VC10 have recently been
involved in high tempo operations. Our innovative approach, which continues to
ensure availability for critical operations, has been greatly appreciated by
the RAF."

Rolls-Royce has also secured an extension to the contract to provide technical
support for Conway engines, which will power the VC10 tanker until it finishes
service in 2013. The company provided around-the-clock support for Conway
engines that powered the VC10 tanker aircraft during the UK's Operation Ellamy
in Libya last year.

Rolls-Royce to acquire Aero Engine Controls

Rolls-Royce, the global power systems company, announces today that it will
acquire the 50 per cent of shares it does not already own in Aero Engine
Controls (AEC) a joint venture with Goodrich Corporation. AEC was established
in January 2009 to combine the engine controls businesses of the two companies.
The joint venture principally designs and manufactures engine control systems
including electronic engine controllers, fuel pumps and fuel metering units for
a wide range of Rolls-Royce engines and for a number of other programmes.

Engine control systems play an increasingly important part in enhancing the
fuel efficiency and overall performance of modern jet engines. This acquisition
will give Rolls-Royce full ownership of a critical capability that confers
competitive advantage.

AEC employs around 1,400 people and has sites in Birmingham, Derby, and Belfast
in the UK and in Indianapolis, USA.

The transaction has been agreed with United Technologies Corp (UTC), which is
in the process of acquiring Goodrich. The acquisition of the remainder of the
shares in AEC by Rolls-Royce will only proceed once the acquisition of Goodrich
by UTC is complete and once any necessary antitrust approvals are obtained.

The transaction will have no material impact for Rolls-Royce on the current
year's financial performance.

..Questor share tip: Rolls-Royce is a real growth engine

Rolls-Royce make turbines that are used in a number of growing global industries. Questor says buy.

Rolls-Royce 818.5p Questor says BUY

Rolls is structured into four divisions: Aerospace, Defence Aerospace, Marine and Energy (NYSEArca: JJE - news) . The company experienced some rare negative headlines after a fleet of new Qantas A380s was grounded after an explosion in a Rolls engine. These issues have now been rectified.

Earlier this year the latest Trent XWB engine took to the skies for the first time and Rolls opened a new manufacturing and training facility in Singapore, close to growth markets.

The secret to Rolls’ business model is in the aftercare market. As the company’s installed base of equipment grows, the market for parts and maintenance also grows.

The company makes precision equipment and appropriate care of turbines is essential. This means each new piece of equipment delivered should boost future profitability.

There are high barriers to entry in its business because of the breadth of Rolls’ intellectual property and its history of innovation. Because of this reputation, its order book stood at £62.2bn at the end of last year.

Growth in the installed base is important to keep profits growing.

Currently, this stands at more than 50,000 engines. However, Rolls is operating in a number of growth markets.

There is a global structural shortage of power which Rolls is ideally placed to service, and airline fleets in emerging economies are growing rapidly. It was strong demand for aircraft engines which propelled pre-tax profits above £1bn last year.

Its (Euronext: ALITS.NX - news) turbines are also used as compressors in the rapidly-expanding offshore oil industry.

The shares are not going cheap, trading on a December 2012 earnings multiple of 14.3 times, falling to 13. However, because of the aftermarket effect, profits are likely to continue to rise for many years.

Quality doesn’t come cheap. Rolls is seeking to double revenues over 10 years through organic growth. The yield, at 2.4pc, is not the reason to own the shares. Rolls-Royce is a buy for growth

UK to order reactor for nuclear-armed submarine

(Reuters) - Britain will order the first reactor for a new generation of nuclear-armed submarines next week as part of a 1 billion pound ($1.6 billion) contract with Rolls-Royce, a defence ministry source said on Sunday, in a move that could strain the coalition government.
