Video surveillance solution developer COE Group Plc (LSE: COE) announced it has landed a contract to provide video surveillance systems for the Seoul Metropolitan Subway network which has a revenue value of £1 million, propelling its stock up by a third.
The system provided by the Leeds-based COE will operate on lines 1, 3 & 4 of the Seoul Metropolitan subway and control up to 8,000 cameras at 67 stations. The surveillance network will provide solutions for real time monitoring of all video, automated camera tracking and include a sophisticated video management system.
"This is a significant contract for us and the award demonstrates the strong position that COE holds within the rail sector and that customers value the flexibility and rail-proven nature of the products which can seamlessly deliver analogue, digital and IP video transmission and management within a single platform," said COE CEO Ian Jefferson.
Deliveries through COE’s regional partner Dong Young Information Communication Co. Ltd will begin within the next 3 months and are expected to be completed by December 2010.
The deal strengthened COE’s footing in the rail sector and improved its positions in the stock market. COE’s stock was high on demand among investors on Monday, helping it to a 30% surge to the price of 7.75p per share.
