I should add Michel Abaza the current CEO of Aqualung has been in the job 3 months.
Started in October. Educated at the precidious HEC Paris
His skills are listed as Customer Services Strategy and ...........Sage

It goes on to say "Michel Abaza contributes valuable insights to the industry."

I guess we know now what he's been smoking.

I'd vote for you to run the company if they ask me. A shy Brit running a French company, I'd love to see that.
 
So if Shen Zhen Tech, or some other CCP backed group was to purchase AL how would that affect the military contracts?
It would kill it.

But why would they bother? There's no novel technology to exploit. If they just want the name, they can wait and pick it up cheap after everything of value has been sold off. Or just license it like Westinghouse Electronics.
 
Apeks: made in China. Still expensive, just cheaper manufacturing == kerching, happy accountants and bread-heads.

BTW Apeks are working on pricing themselves completely out of the market. Accountants: know the cost of everything and the value of nothing.

Apeks isn’t the only one working very hard to price themselves completely out of the market.
When I look at the prices of the other leading premium brands it seems they have mastered the art of obscene pricing and clever ways to justify it.
I always though outboard motors were at the top of the heap of overpricing for what you get, scuba regulators have them beat.

List price for a 30m apeks spoil is £117 or US$150. It is only some string on an aluminium reel, cost of production has to be less than $10 and probably less than US$5, they seem to have the pricing / profit / volume model very very wrong
