“The company’s published figures, this time too, tell a story of people, a story of which the State of Israel can be justly proud,” said Amir Peretz, Chairman of the Board of Directors of IAI. “Yet together with our successes, we face challenges too, around the world. Geopolitical situations generate opportunities in which more and more countries recognize our capabilities, and we are happy to report that the world has responded by raising our credit rating to AAA, a reflection of the confidence shown in the Company’s financial stability, which improves our ability to raise funds.”

“In addition to satellite launches, impressive tests conducted both in Israel and elsewhere, and the fruitful activities of Israel’s Ministry of Defense, both as customer and owner, but mainly as a partner, Israel Aerospace Industries has taken Israel forward in terms of its economy, its defense, and its technologies,” said Boaz Levy, IAI’s CEO. “The Company’s continued strategic growth found expression in the first half of the year through the procurement of several critical companies around the world. These and other activities are all reflected in the confidence shown in IAI, and its recent highest-ever award of an AAA credit rating.”
