And on Twitter:

Filtronic announces an exclusive US West Coast distribution agreement with The Sales Group, who are leaders in the sales and distribution of critical communication products. This is a great partnership that complements our core capabilities perfectly

The company’s hiring on LinkedIn bazworth. That’s a good sign for me - so I’ll say a whoosh is being planned by the new CEO & his team.

[bazworth] 06/7/2021 16:10

So quiet here!

Wonder if we’re heading for a secondary ‘whoosh’ or will it be a ‘sploosh’; before then!?

Cheers

[chrisdgb] 30/6/2021 09:51

Filtronic’s swift and professional response to this geo-political change enabled our client to meet its country-of-origin targets without a drop in production,” said Richard Gibbs, CEO of Filtronic. “The entire re-shoring operation was delivered successfully within the customer’s required time frame of less than six months. At the same time, we have been able to implement product and process improvements, and also improve workflow and logistics, leading to a significant reduction in lead time on these critical communications products.”

this should allay concerns about component sourcing.

I think the FY results will reflect this in an updated outlook and be positive for the share price

I see the options have been awarded an a price higher than todays and this is not a coincidence before results.

I may be behind the curve with this! The RNS last week mentioned South Korea but the following contains more detail:

South Korea’s mmWave experts join forces with Filtronic

Filtronic have today announced signing an exclusive agreement with Comotech Corporation. Comotech are mmWave specialists based in South Korea, with specific expertise in Telecommunications Infrastructure and Aerospace & Defence. They offer design and manufacturing services and provide a range of high-performance E-band radio links. They also have an established offering for ultra-low latency trading, complimenting Filtronics expertise in this niche market.

South Korea is an exciting market for E-band, and as E-band pioneers Filtronic’s product portfolio of high-performance transceivers and power amplifiers enables Comotech to target their domestic market and develop further their established route to market. The company was established in 1999 and since that time they have grown their application experience to include V-band, W-band, as well as E-band.

Comotech have a strong customer base, across multiple verticals, providing access into geographic territories that Filtronic traditionally have had limited access to. They are one of South Korea’s leading mmWave engineering specialists, with specific expertise in 60GHz, 70/80GHz, 90GHz and 110 GHz. Comotech have recently expanded their business into Sub-THz (terahertz), principally 140GHz, 170GHz and 295GHz, joining a next generation 6G research project led by ETRI the national research centre and some of South Korea’s major telecommunication companies.

“Comotech̵7;s values and culture of innovation, customer service, quality and high performance fit Filtronic’s approach perfectly. We are looking forward to working collaboratively with Comotech to the mutual benefit of our organisations,”; said Dan Rhodes, Director of Business Development. “Comotech̵7;s markets and product experience complement our core mmWave capabilities perfectly.”

“We are excited by this prospect,“ said Youngsu Kim, CEO of Comotech Corporation. “Their mmWave knowledge is second to none, we have been working with their business development team for a while now on various opportunities and we look forward to representing them in South Korea.”

The @Filtronic twitter feed. They often post some interesting nuggats.

This one is I think basically an advertorial for what they can do to help companies "onshore" activities back from China.

[bazworth] 19/6/2021 14:30

donald,

Where have you found that comment please?

Cheers

[donald pond] 19/6/2021 10:28

Hmm...Due to the wealth of #RF expertise at our Salisbury location, we recruited experienced operatives. Additional equipment was procured and reallocated in order to be able to rapidly replicate the offshore operations. Sounds positive to me

[maxplus2] 18/6/2021 13:37

Some of the jobs have been advertised for over 6 months. Standard package and they are on the North such as Sedgefield. Who wants to relocate?

[donald pond] 18/6/2021 11:22

More jobshttps://twitter.com/filtronic/status/1405832844690300975?s=21

Another Edison note out, not read it yet

[chrisdgb] 17/6/2021 16:21

Fair play to the management looks like they have managed a tricky period very well, fantastic long term story and I remain interested in the Space angle.....

[stockhunters] 17/6/2021 15:27

only way is up with this turn aroun

tried to break 13p will have another go soon

[p1nkfish] 17/6/2021 09:43

They have managed well given nearly everyone else involved in electronics has been hit by supply problems. You name it and they all have problems except FTC.

[weatherman] 17/6/2021 09:39

Good statement with nearly 50% growth in EBITA, with good growth in net cash. If they can focus on long term steady growth, while building the base, this will do well from here - imo.

[stockhunters] 17/6/2021 08:16

only 50k shares available to buy below 13p

[stockhunters] 17/6/2021 07:29

very nice boom boom

[mesquida] 17/6/2021 07:23

Encouraging year end update out this morning.

[bazworth] 17/6/2021 07:23

Typically cautious FTC update but results slightly ahead, strong order book and new sales channels opened up. Very happy to hold!

[p1nkfish] 17/6/2021 07:23

Upbeat TU, explains the recently perky price.
