Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp. Announces $615,000 International Order for the T-47/M5 Mode 5 Test Set

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.--()--Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp. (“Tel”, “Tel-Instrument” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: TIK), a leading designer and manufacturer of avionics test and measurement solutions, today reported the receipt of a $615,000 order for the T-47/M5 Mode 5 test set from a major military customer in the Asia-Pacific region. This order will be shipped in the third quarter of our next fiscal year.

Jeff O’Hara, Tel’s President and CEO said, “We are pleased to report the receipt of a $615,000 follow-on order from the Asia-Pacific region for our T-47/M5 integrated dual crypto Mode 5 test set. This brings the cumulative T-47/M5 orders from this customer to over $1 million. This customer had been waiting for AIMS certification before releasing this follow-on order. The T-47/M5 Mode 5 test set has been sold to eight different countries thus far, and we believe this test set will be the test set of choice for many international customers due to its dual crypto capability, and ability to perform detailed Mode 5 platform integration testing. The U.S. Army has begun purchasing these test sets for their Mode 5 platform integration testing. These most recent orders, and other pending contracts, continue to strengthen our position as the world-wide leader for Mode 5 flight-line test equipment. The Company anticipates continued revenue growth and a return to solid profitability starting in the current fiscal quarter.”
