Cohort - Further order successes for MASS and EID

The positive order intake news continues for Cohort. It has announced a further £3.2m contract for MASS to provide business analysis support to the UK’s MOD. In addition, the Portuguese subsidiary EID has won export contracts worth €11m for vehicle intercom systems for two existing customers. The EID contracts include successful acquisition of one of the five potential order opportunities previously indicated in the AGM update. Cohort continues to see improving overall group order inflow, which underpins the outlook for the businesses through FY19 as well as in the medium term. The shares have been performing well in a challenging stock market, and the current FY20e P/E of just 12.3x remains undemanding in our view.
