Ultra Electronics - Encouraging order book development
Ahead of its AGM Ultra has released a first quarter trading update that indicates no change to management expectations. The company still expects to make modest progress on a constant currency basis, although it will face FX headwinds. Encouragingly, despite the adverse exchange rate movement the order backlog at the end of the quarter stood at £933m, some 2% higher than at the start of FY18. An increased weighting to the second half of cash and earnings performance is still expected. The shares trade on a relatively low P/E against many UK peers, but the discount should start to diminish if operational execution continues as planned.
