Ricardo ( (GB:RCDO) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Ricardo PLC has announced the sale of its Ricardo Defense Business to Proteus Enterprises LLC and Gladstone Investment Corporation for $85 million. This move aligns with Ricardo’s strategy to focus on high-growth, high-margin sectors by transitioning towards a portfolio centered around environmental and energy solutions. Despite a temporary dip in earnings per share due to the divestment, the acquisition of E3 Advisory is expected to mitigate this impact and support long-term sustainable growth. The sale reflects Ricardo’s commitment to optimizing its portfolio and enhancing its position as a leader in sustainability-related consultancy services.
