ATLANTA, Jan. 26, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EMS Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:ELMG) announced today that EMS President and CEO Paul Domorski was the subject of an in-depth interview by The Wall Street Transcript. The interview was part of a special Telecommunications Equipment Report published by The Wall Street Transcript for professional investors and money managers.
Domorski commented, "EMS is expanding its investment in its satellite communications business. We have announced three recent acquisitions in this area. We have invested in UK-based Satamatics, a company that does machine-to-machine (M2M) satellite tracking around the world, which will augment our existing force-tracking capabilities. We have also invested in an Iridium voice and tracking business, Sky Connect, based outside Washington, D.C., that predominantly equips helicopters serving the medivac, homeland security and Gulf offshore oil industries. During hurricane season, our equipment aids the evacuation of 10,000 staff working on oil rigs in the Gulf. Most recently, we have announced the acquisition of Formation, a New Jersey-based avionics manufacturer specializing in rugged servers, hard drives and Wireless Access Points. Formation further extends our access to the U.S. market for airline connectivity. It will allow us to participate in terrestrial (tower-based) aero broadband systems now being rolled out with major North American airlines."
