SYRACUSE, N.Y., Oct. 05 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Anaren, Inc.
(NASDAQ:ANEN) announced today that, on October 15, it will
celebrate being named the 2007 National Subcontractor of the Year
by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). According to a
press release issued by the SBA, the award "honors small businesses
that have provided the government and industry with outstanding
goods and services." Anaren was originally nominated by Raytheon
Missile Systems (Tucson, AZ) at the regional level for SBA Region

the SBA from among 10 regional nominees to be the national winner.

In an award presentation to be held at Anaren's Syracuse, NY
headquarters on October 15, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. -- which will
include comments by U.S. Congressman Jim Walsh (New York, 25th
district) -- Raytheon will officially recognize and acknowledge
Anaren's SBA award. The event will also include a tour of Anaren's
newly constructed 54,000 square foot addition to its Syracuse
manufacturing facility. "We are proud of Anaren's achievement,"
says Robert Parra, Raytheon's Senior Supplier Manager of Supply
Chain Management. "Being recognized by the U.S. Small Business
Administration demonstrates the type of commitment that Anaren has
made to its customers as well as the community." Raytheon's
nomination of Anaren stems from its long-term relationship with the
Syracuse company which specializes in complex, high-density RF and
microwave technology employed in such Raytheon-driven programs as
the Evolved SeaSparrow Missile (ESSM), the SeaRAM Anti-Ship Missile
Defense System, and the Phalanx Close-In Weapon System (CIWS).
"Anaren is honored to have been nominated by Raytheon Missile
Systems for this award -- and excited to have been selected by the
SBA given the caliber of our fellow nominees," said Anaren
President and CEO, Lawrence Sala, who along with Tim Glavin, Space
& Defense Corporate Business Development manager at Anaren,
received the award on the company's behalf at an SBA event held in
Washington, DC earlier this year. "It is testimony to the
innovative spirit of our team, evidence of the dynamic things
happening at Raytheon, and proof of the ingenuity occurring in
today's U.S. defense sector as a whole," added Sala. ABOUT ANAREN:
