Thales is today releasing its order intake and sales for Q1 2016.

Order intake is in line with our expectations. It is logically lower than in Q1 2015 when the Group recorded the Egyptian Rafale contract.

Order intake in line with expectations: 2.3 billion, down 18%[1]

Sales: 2.7 billion, representing organic growth[2] of 7.3%
