About Hampson:
Hampson Industries' ("the Group") operations are structured into three business segments, serving primarily the global commercial and military aerospace and specialist engineering markets from manufacturing facilities in the UK, North America and India.
Approximately 90% of the Group's sales are derived from its aerospace activities, the balance from the market for automotive turbocharger components.
In June 2008, the Group completed the acquisitions of Odyssey Industries, Inc. and Global Tooling Systems, Inc. for a total consideration of up to USD314 million, partly financed through a £65 million placing and open offer.
The Group now employs over 2,400 people.
The company is listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange (Symbol: HAMP).
