AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Defense Industry: The Pentagon approved funding for Bath Iron Works to build an additional Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, a project that could cost up to $2.5 billion pending congressional approval. BIW says the work would support the shipyard and its employees. Maine Companies: Portland-based ImmuCell reported preliminary third-quarter sales of $8 million, up 46% from a year earlier, and nine-month sales growth of 27.8%. Health Care: York Hospital has begun merging with MaineHealth, citing rising labor and drug costs as challenges to operating independently. Penobscot Community Health Care also received $2.8 million in state support to avert a financial collapse. Retail: Aldi is scouting a site for a second Maine store.
