Chemring - Flight path adjusted

Chemring is making strong progress on many fronts as market dynamics begin to play in its favour. It has re-established its financial footing and is positioned to drive growth organically and with selective M&A. FY18 is likely to be one of consolidation due to the profile of the 40mm ammunition contracts, but earnings growth anticipated in Countermeasures and Sensors offsets a fall in Energetics. The operational excellence programme targets a 300bp improvement on existing product lines by 2022.
