Record Breaking New Orders Top $85 Million for DHB
Thursday April 10, 12:20 pm ET


CARLE PLACE, N.Y., April 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- DHB Industries Inc. (Amex: DHB), the market leader in the rapidly growing protective body armor industry, announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Point Blank Body Armor, Inc., has received more than $85 million in delivery orders for body armor, including its "Interceptor" Outer Tactical Vest (OTV) from several branches of the U.S. Department of Defense.

U.S. Armed Forces are wearing Point Blank Body Armor's Interceptor OTV, the lightest, most technologically advanced protective system ever issued in the history of the United States Military. Point Blank Body Armor has been, and is, the sole source supplier of Interceptor. It was developed to exceed the rigorous standards set by the U.S. Marine Corps, and subsequently adopted by the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force.

Commenting on the announcement, Sandra Hatfield, Chief Operating Officer of DHB Industries, stated, "Point Blank, home of the Interceptor OTV, has equipped American troops in Operation Enduring Freedom like no others before them. The magnitude of these orders is a clear indication of the confidence the Department of Defense has expressed in the Company and it's products."

"These record breaking orders reflect the strength of DHB's technology, products and our ability to handle very large volumes for the U.S. Department of Defense," stated David H. Brooks, DHB's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. "In early January, we began implementation of a pre-emptive strategic plan to provide our military customers with a dedicated production facility, and these efforts are clearly showing early dividends." Mr. Brooks concluded.
