Defense contract awards and program developments affect the Aerospace & Defense segment, while regulatory changes in the utility sector can impact demand for grid diagnostic equipment. New product introductions and technology developments occasionally generate announcements, particularly when the company expands capabilities in growing markets like space applications or next-generation test systems.
