Cohort plc, the UK-based technology group acquired 56.89% of the share capital of EID, on 27 June 2016. The acquisition is from existing shareholders EFACEC Capital S.G.P.S. S.A and Rohde & Schwarz GmbH.<\/p>\n

Cohort is an independent technology group working primarily for defence (air, land and sea), wider government and industry clients, through (up to now) four market-facing subsidiary companies: MASS, MCL, SCS and SEA.<\/p>\n

EID will join these subsidiary businesses as the fifth member of the Cohort Group. Cohort has agreed in principle to acquire a further stake from two agencies of the Portuguese Government on the same terms, such that its final holding in EID will be 80%. Timing and completion of this further transaction is dependent on the necessary approvals from the Portuguese government, which will be further announced.<\/p>\n

“This acquisition marks a significant step in EID\u2019s history. We are very pleased to become a part of Cohort\u2019s group, where we truly believe together we can trace a fruitful path in the defence market, by exploring synergies within the group\u201d, states Ant\u00f3nio Marcos Lopes, Managing Director of EID.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cohort plc, the UK-based technology group acquired 56.89% of the share capital of EID, on 27 June 2016.
