The AIM-traded group said Marlborough Communications was awarded a 14m contract by a UK government customer for the immediate delivery of uncrewed air systems, alongside two years of in-service support.

Thomis added that the contracts improved earnings visibility across the group.
"These latest contracts, combined with other recent orders across the group, further enhance our order book and the visibility of future revenues.
"Sufficient orders have now been secured to underpin fully the Group's 2025/26 financial year consensus forecast revenue."
