With a sequential rise in turnover of 9% , the fourth quarter has seen the predicted beginning of a recovery. The military and space sector represented 56% of activity during this quarter, the industrial sector made up 25% and telecoms 19% . Compared to the previous quarter, demand remained buoyant in military, stable in industrial and gained strength in telecoms.

Philippe Brégi, Chief Executive Officer of the group states: "The recovery in business witnessed during the fourth quarter reinforces our stage by stage recovery scenario. Some sectors, such as telecoms or civil and military security should still show significant increases in coming months whereas others, such as space, aeronautics or industrial should experience a slower emergence from the crisis."
