Ultra and Cobham both share advanced complementary capabilities delivering mission critical solutions to the US, UK and other key allies, Conham noted.
A number of structures are under consideration to effect such a combination, Cobham said, including a contribution of Cobham into Ultra in exchange for new Ultra shares or a possible offer for Ultra by Cobham.
Ultra shares closed 6.7% higher in London on Friday at 2,300.00 pence each.
