RE: Government fundingAs Bronte4 mentioned, its from the AGM presentation, "Cymat request $2.5-5M" Government Funding page.
I didn't think much of this at the time, but if Cymat is involved in a large contract with considerable near-term deliverables they will need to ramp up and acquire production resources quickly, hence their business plan at the AGM indicates they are positioning for success and delivery with government assistance with EDC validation completed to fund the US military orders.
If you look at the MRAP contract awards, the US government was looking to get vehicles quickly and OshKosh could deliver. So one of the requirements for Cymat being a smaller company is to have a business plan / funding ramp-up plan in place to insure they can be an integration partner whether it is a retro-fit and/or new design opportunity.
Nice way to end a quarter for Cymat.......
