 "We are pleased with our 97% top line growth for the year. This growth was achieved with record volume increases in order activity for both the Communications Group and Imaging Group, as well as through acquisitive growth, with the asset purchase of the FEL business in our Defense Systems Group. We are reporting respectable earnings for the year given the start up inefficiencies associated with reconstituting the production capabilities of the FEL asset purchase," noted S. Kent Rockwell, CEO of Sensytech.
