BAE Systems non-exec cashes in 50,000 shares
Paul Anderson, a non-executive director of aerospace, defence and securities giant BAE Systems, has cashed in 50,000 shares.
The shares were sold at 442.2p each, giving the deal a total trade value of £221,100.
The deal came just three weeks after the company posted lower half-year sales and profits as it downplayed talk that it could revive its failed merger with the former EADS group now known as Airbus.
BAE reported a 10.6% drop in sales to £7.6bn from £8.5bn in the six months to 30 June and said underlying pre-tax earnings came in 7.5% lower at £802m versus £867m last time.
The group expects sales to be weighted towards the second half of 2014, including the timing of Typhoon aircraft deliveries.
