CHG — Chemring Group

Stub — needs full research.

Identity

• Company: Chemring Group plc
• Ticker: CHG (LSE)
• Sector: Defense
• Business: UK defense company — countermeasures, sensors, energetics (propellants, pyrotechnics, munitions components). Also cyber/information security division.

Thesis (from intake)

"Shittier cheaper MPTI" — positioned as a cheaper, lower-quality version of MPTI. Defense electronics with missile/munitions exposure. If MPTI's backlog is up 60% before Iran, Chemring likely benefits from same tailwinds at a lower valuation.

Research needed

• Revenue breakdown: countermeasures vs sensors vs energetics vs cyber
• How comparable to MPTI really? (Crystal oscillators vs munitions components — different businesses)
• UK/NATO defense spending trajectory
• Valuation vs MPTI and other defense small-caps
