Ambient books $10M smart grid contract

By Jackie Noblett

Ambient Corp. announced Tuesday it has received a $9.9 million order for its smart grid communications nodes.

The Newton-based smart grid technology company said it plans to deliver the nodes, which act as a bridge, router or gateway for communications on the electrical grid, in the first half of this year. The contract’s value is ten times more than the company’s revenue of about $900,000 for the first nine months of 2009, and double the $4.5 million in revenue Ambient booked the first nine months of 2008.

On Monday, Ambient announced that it had issued about 666 million shares of common stock to its largest shareholder, Vicis Capital LLC, in order to retire completely the company’s long-term debt.
