Director dealings: Qinetiq director raises stake

Searle, who was appointed to the board of Qinetiq back in March 2014, purchased the shares at an average price of 302.44p each, for a total value of £30,244.

In late June, Qinetiq agreed to dispose of software company Boldon James to Minnesota-based software outfit HelpSystems International for £30m.

Qinetiq said the decision to offload Boldon James was "a strategic choice" to allow increased focus on its core capabilities of delivering mission-led innovation.

As of 1630 BST, Qinetiq shares were up 0.54% at 299p.
