(Alliance News) - LightwaveRF PLC on Wednesday said that it has signed an agreement with Exertis Supply Chain Services Ltd to supply working capital.

Over the next four months, Ireland-based Extertis will make an initial GBP200,000 purchase in Lightwave's stock holding and will then provide an additional finance facility of GBP450,000, the company said.

Chief Executive Jason Elliot said: "This facility will help the company better manage its working capital as well as improve the terms of, and reduce the costs in, its supply chain."
