Company Profile

ABOUT CAE
Overview CAE is a world leader in providing simulation and modelling technologies and integrated training solutions for the civil aviation industry and defence forces around the globe. CAE employs more than 6,500 people at more than 90 sites and training locations in 20 countries. The company has the largest installed base of civil and military full-flight simulators and training devices. Through CAEs global network of 29 civil aviation and military training centres, the company trains more than 75,000 crewmembers yearly. CAE also offers modelling and simulation software to various market segments and has a professional services division assisting customers with a wide range of simulationbased needs. CAE was founded in 1947 and is headquartered in Canada. With clients in over 100 countries, CAE has the broadest global reach of any simulation and training equipment and services company on the market. Ninety per cent of CAEs C$1.6 billion annual revenues are derived from worldwide exports. CAEs shares are traded on the Toronto and New York stock exchanges (TSX: CAE; NYSE: CAE).

CAE is leveraging its experience in modelling and simulation to expand vertically within the aerospace and defence industry, and horizontally to pursue opportunities in emerging markets such as homeland defence and urban simulation. CAE is focusing on high growth markets such as Asia and the Middle East for civil business, and bolstering its presence in the U.S. military market. To ensure the company is positioned to respond to growth opportunities, CAE continually invests in new technologies. CAE is consistently ranked as one of the top 20 Canadian companies in research and development investments (Source: Research Infosource). In November 2005, CAE announced the launch of the companys largest ever research and development program, Project Phoenix, a C$630 million investment spanning six years. In May 2006, CAE established a company-wide group devoted to innovation. The goal of the group is to identify opportunities for CAE to leverage its expertise and leading-edge technologies into core and adjacent markets. CAEs revenues are balanced 50-50 between products and services and 50-50 between civil and military. The company has four primary business segments: Civil Training and Services Military Training and Services Civil Simulation Products Military Simulation Products The major priorities of Civil Training and Services are to increase revenue per simulator within the companys global network of training centres, and to deliver the most cost-effective and competitive training service in the marketplace. The main goals of Military Training and Services are to provide the defence market with technological excellence in modelling and simulation, increase the companys market share of the military training market, and explore opportunities in nontraditional areas of the defence market, including such areas as Homeland Security, as well as needs analysis and planning. A key focus of Simulation Products (Civil and Military) is to substantially reduce the costs associated with manufacturing simulation equipment intended both for sale to third parties as well as for installation in the companys own global network of training centres. This reduction is being accomplished by reducing the manufacturing cycle time and by modularizing the products.

Full-flight and full-mission simulators: CAE is known for the realism, quality and reliability of its full-flight simulators and full-mission simulators. Pilots around the world regard CAEs simulators as the closest thing to the true experience of flight. They can take you anywhere you want to go, in any kind of weather, without ever leaving the ground. In a full-flight simulator, pilots can practice in complete safety maneuvers that are too dangerous or impossible to try in a real aircraft. CAE Tropos-6000: CAEs latest visual system for the civil aviation market, CAE Tropos-6000 uses satellite imagery of the whole planet as well as sophisticated lighting and weather effects to create realistic training scenarios. CAE Simfinity: Transforming the way that pilots and maintenance technicians learn while setting a new standard in aviation training, CAE Simfinity comprises a suite of products based on the same high-fidelity Level-D software used in CAEs full-flight simulators. Student pilots and maintenance technicians are able to immerse themselves in a virtual cockpit from their first day of training. Allowing for advanced training on procedure trainers in ground-school and on the web, the suite of products includes both two-dimensional and three-dimensional training devices. One example is the Integrated Procedure Trainer (IPT), a three-dimensional trainer that uses six to seven touch-sensitive screens to display a cockpit. It helps students learn critical motion skills, procedures, cockpit scanning flows, and crew interactions. The IPT is not dependent on aircraft-specific hardware and can be reconfigured to fit multiple aircraft types. CAE Medallion-6000: The latest member in CAEs powerful Medallion image generator family, CAE Medallion-6000 uses the power and capabilities of the latest commercial-off-the-shelf workstation graphics to provide a highly modular, scalable and portable visual solution designed to satisfy a full range of military training needs.
