5.6.5 Order book<br />
Given the nature of the Company’s products and the market in which the Company operates, many<br />
deliveries will take place over a period of time. At the end of 2006 the Company had a strong order<br />
book, totalling about NOK 122 million. This is a historical high level, even though the order book<br />
typically increases towards the end of a year. In addition to seasonal variations, the high order book is<br />
to some extent a result of delays in deliveries combined with a substantial amount of orders related to<br />
the Company’s power and commercial products. Also, Lerc has an all time high order reserve, and<br />
there is at present a high level of activity within the shipbuilding industry, which gives the Company a<br />
stable amount of incoming orders for regular antennas.<br />
Going forward the Company is in a strong position to realize interesting market opportunities. The<br />
prospects for the power supply products overlap the prospects for the antenna and antenna systems.<br />
