ORBT Orbit International Corporation (PK)

HAUPPAUGE, NY--(Marketwired - Jun 5, 2014) - Orbit International Corp. (NASDAQ: ORBT), an electronics manufacturer and software solution provider, today announced that its Power Group, through its Behlman Electronics, Inc. subsidiary ("Behlman"), has received new follow-on orders totaling in excess of $770,000.

The first order, valued at approximately $654,000, is for a COTS power supply that is part of an ongoing missile system upgrade program for which Behlman received its initial order in July 2009. This follow-on order brings the total value of orders for this program to over $3.5 million. Deliveries are scheduled to commence in the third quarter of 2014 and continue through the first quarter of 2015. Furthermore, based on information from its customer, Behlman anticipates additional orders in 2014.

The second order, valued at approximately $118,000, is a follow-on order for a COTS power supply used on a water purification system on a US Navy guided missile destroyer. Deliveries are scheduled for the fourth quarter of this year.

Ron Storm, President of Behlman commented, "Despite challenging economic conditions, Behlman's COTS division continues to generate both new and repeat orders for its products. Behlman continues to work with major contractors developing power solutions for commercial and military programs which should continue to provide many years of follow-on business."

Mitchell Binder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Orbit International Corp. commented, "This is our second order in 2014 for this COTS power supply in support of an ongoing missile program. These two contracts approximated $1,429,000 with additional orders expected in 2014. Despite difficult industry conditions, bookings for our COTS division have improved over the prior year. Also, in our Electronics Group, we have had a significant increase to our proposal pipeline, particularly our legacy business, but the timing of actual orders remains uncertain. In addition, we continue to carefully monitor our costs in order to maximize our operating margins."
