Carclo stated that "constructive discussions" with the unnamed customer regarding an "appropriate commercial settlement" were ongoing but said second-half profits would be "materially lower" than previous expectations no matter what the outcome.
The London-listed group added that its lending bank remained "supportive" and was actively engaged in discussions as to what amendments may be required to address the impact on its banking covenants.
As of 0840 GMT, Carclo shares had sunk 29.27% to 10.61p.
