KUALA LUMPUR: Boustead Holdings Bhd has awarded a contract for the second generation patrol vessels/ littoral combat ships torpedo launching system to Boustead Heavy Industries Corporation Bhd’s subsidiary Contraves Advanced Devices Sdn Bhd.

Boustead Holdings said on Monday its subsidiary Boustead Naval Shipyard Sdn Bhd had issued a letter of award to Contraves for the project under the government defence programme.

“The letter of awards awards to CAD contracts to supply the torpedo launching system for the littoral combat ships programme. Other details are classified,” it said.

Boustead Holdings said the awarded works constituted a recurrent related party transaction for which a shareholder mandate was obtained at the company’s AGM on April 8, 2013.

“The awarded works are not expected to have a material impact on the earnings of the company for the financial year ending Dec 31, 2013, but will contribute positively to subsequent years’ earnings of Boustead Naval Shipyard as the tenure of the awarded works is long term in nature,” it said.
