Press Release

Issued by Babcock International.

January 12, 2015

Following the acquisition of Avincis Group by Babcock International Group PLC in May 2014, the process to integrate the business into the group has progressed well and it is therefore appropriate to reflect this by taking the Babcock name. Avincis will therefore now become Babcock Mission Critical Services (Babcock).

The local companies which make up the business, delivering vital services to their customers across 11 countries, will retain their individual names under the brands Australian Helicopters, Bond, INAER, Norsk Helikopterservice and Scandinavian AirAmbulance.
