Cohort - Set to resume growth in FY23
Cohort indicated in its closing FY22 trading update that it expects to deliver earnings in line with market expectations despite a c £10m shortfall in revenues. Part of the sales impact is due to a contract adjustment at Chess, but pandemic-related delays continued to affect other group companies. Order intake has remained strong and management expectations for FY23 are maintained, with order cover for FY23 sales of 69% (64% for FY21). With increasing global defence spending and a return to growth anticipated from this year, an FY23e P/E of 14.5x does not look demanding.Cohort is a holding company. Co. operates through its subsidiaries: Empresa de Investigacao e Desenvolvimento de Electronica, S.A., which is engaged in the fields of electronics, tactical and naval communications, command and control; MASS Consultants Limited, which is an electronic warfare operational support, cyber security, secure ICT networks and support to operations business serving customers primarily in defense and security markets; and Marlborough Communications Limited, which is a supplier of electronic communications, information systems and signals intelligence technology to the defense and security sectors.
