Subadmiral, Commander,
I can confirm that this message originated from the mercenary vessel Sienov and was sent from the Europani system. Frequency analysis of the message matches previous hails from that ship. They still use an archaic modulation method, details are attached if either of you need additional analysis.
This same ship recently had a run in with our allies in the 38th Fleet. The USS Reyga made contact with them on stardate 100135.6 (Report attached). The ship does semi-competent mercenary work. I reached out to Commander Sedai, Reyga’s XO, and she and one of her officers were able to provide some additional context. In summary, their read was that this outfit is an unknown and not to be trusted.
That said, their mission profile and history indicates valuable sources inside the Empire. These may be invaluable given Imperial activity in the region of their message. I recommend we send a ship to investigate.
