Aim-traded SRT Marine Systems (SRT:48.5p), a global leader in technology used to track maritime vessels, has announced a return to profit and released a strong trading outlook.

In the six months to 31 December 2024, SRT’s systems business, which provides a sophisticated marine domain awareness (MDA) integrated AI-driven maritime surveillance system to sovereign agencies such as coast guards and fishing agencies, generated revenue of £21mn. This was derived from follow-on and recurring projects with three existing customers, as well as initial milestones on a significant £170mn contract signed in October 2024 that is delivering an integrated maritime surveillance system for the Kuwait government (‘A marine technology company building momentum’, 7 October 2024).
