Background
The Thales Group is a French electronics company delivering information technology and services for the aerospace, defence, transportation and security markets.
The company changed its name to Thales from Thomson-CSF in December 2000 shortly after the £1,300 million acquisition of Racal Electronics, a UK defence electronics group. It is now partially state-owned by the France, and has operations in more than 50 countries. It has 68,000 employees and generated €13.1 billion in revenues in 2010. The Group is ranked as the 475th largest company by Fortune 500 Global, is the 11th largest defence contractor in the world and 60% of its total sales are military sales.
Significant changes have occurred since the largest private shareholder, Alcatel, sold its stake in Thales to Dassault.
