Defence Holdings PLC on Friday saw its shares jump after noting a potential contract award from the UK Ministry of Defence. The London-based defence technology group confirmed the publication of a UK government transparency notice, which covers a proposed contract award involving Defence Holdings. The contract in question ‘relates to the testing of an integrated capability designed to fuse open-source and classified intelligence into a single analytical platform, generate courses of action and support rapid, human-controlled deployment of authorised effects across cyber, information and supply-chain domains’, the company said. According to the government notice, the contract is worth about £226,000 over three months. The award remains subject to approval and procurement processes. Defence Holdings stock shares rose 18% to 1.24 pence on Friday afternoon in London, and have more than doubled over the past year. Copyright 2026 Alliance News Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
