Radstone Technology PLC23 December 2005 For Immediate Release 23 December 2005 Radstone Technology PLC Trading Update Radstone Technology, the world's leading independent supplier ofhigh-performance, embedded computer products for defence and aerospaceapplications, announces today a trading update. In our interim statement we announced that the order book for delivery in thesecond half was £25.2m and that we expected that the additional sales fromorders to be both booked and shipped in the second half would exceed last year'sfigure of £7.2m. Orders booked in November and December were high at more than £16m compared to£7m for the same period last year, but the proportion scheduled for delivery inthe second-half is less than expected. We therefore expect our second-halfbookings for delivery by year-end to be similar to last year. Our outlook for 2007 and beyond is unchanged, supported by a growing order bookand recent design-wins on major US and European programmes.
