PART I
Item 1. Business.
General
Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. (the "Company") is engaged principally in the
development, design, production and sale of specialized electronic power
supplies, a wide variety of transformers and other types of iron-core
components, and electronic system components. In some cases, the Company
manufactures such products in accordance with pre-developed mechanical and
electrical requirements. In other cases, the Company is responsible for both the
overall design and manufacture of the product. The Company does not generally
manufacture standardized components. The Company operates a one-segment business
and was incorporated in 1928.
The electronic power supplies and components manufactured by the Company find
application principally in (i) shipboard and land based radar, (ii) locomotives,
(iii) aircraft, (iv) short, medium range and global communication systems, (v)
navigation systems for aircraft, (vi) land based military vehicles.
The Company's iron-core components include (i) transformers of the audio, power
and pulse types, (ii) magnetic amplifiers and (iii) audio filters. The
electronic system components manufactured by the Company include antenna systems
and high power radar transmitters. These system components utilize the Company's
own electronic power supplies, transformers and other iron-core components and
mechanical assemblies.
In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002 (referred to herein as "2002"), the
Company's total sales were $18,405,213. Sales to two domestic customers and one
foreign customer accounted for 26%, 21% and 14% and 40%, 20%, and 12%, of total
sales in 2002 and 2001, respectively. Sales to two domestic customers accounted
for 30% and 26% respectively, of total sales in 2000.
Export sales in 2002, 2001 and 2000 were approximately $6,600,000, $8,700,000,
and $4,200,000, respectively. The Company has a foreign sales corporation.
Sources of Raw Materials
The Company has never experienced any significant delay or shortage with respect
to the purchase of raw materials and components used in the manufacture of its
products, and has at least two potential sources of supply for a majority of its
raw materials. However, certain components used in our products are available
from only a limited number of sources, and other components are only available
from a single source. Despite the risk associated with limited or single source
suppliers, the benefits of higher quality goods and timely delivery minimize and
often limit any potential risk and can eliminate problems with part failures
during production.
Sales Backlog
At September 11, 2002, the Company's backlog was approximately $28.5 million.
The total backlog at June 30, 2002 was approximately $24.6 million as compared
to approximately $27.5 million at June 30, 2001. The Company's backlog is
discussed in greater detail in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, contained in Item 7 below.
It is presently anticipated that a minimum of $19 million of orders comprising
the June 30, 2002 backlog will be filled during the fiscal year ending June 30,
2003. The minimum of $19 million does not include any shipments, which may be
made against orders subsequently received during the fiscal year ending June 30,
2003. The estimate of the June 30, 2002 backlog to be shipped in fiscal 2003 is
subject to future events, which may cause the amount of the backlog actually
shipped to differ from such estimate.
Marketing and Competition
The Company markets its products primarily through its own direct sales
organization. Business is solicited from large industrial manufacturers and
defense companies, United States and foreign governments and major foreign
electronic equipment companies. In certain countries the Company has external
sales representatives to help solicit and coordinate foreign contracts. The
Company is also on the eligible list of contractors of
2
many agencies of the Department of Defense and generally is automatically
solicited by such agencies for procurement needs falling within the major
classes of products produced by the Company. In addition, the Company directly
solicits bids from both the Department of Defense and other United States
Government agencies for prime contracts.
There is competition in all classes of products manufactured by the Company,
from divisions of the largest electronic companies, as well as many small
companies. The Company's sales do not represent a significant share of the
industry's market for any class of its products. The principal methods of
competition for electronic products of both a military and industrial nature
include, among other factors, price, product performance, the experience of the
particular company and history of its dealings in such products. The Company, as
well as other companies engaged in supplying equipment for military use, is
subject to various risks, including, without limitation, dependence on U.S. and
foreign government appropriations and program allocations, the competition for
available military business, and government termination of orders for
convenience.
The Company's business is not considered to be of seasonal nature.
Research and Development
The Company's expenditures for research and development were approximately
$335,000, $249,000, and $255,000 in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Some of
the Company's engineers and technicians spend varying degrees of time on either
development of new products or improvement of existing products.
Employees
The number of persons employed by the Company as of September 11, 2002 was 188.
Some of these employees are represented by the International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers Local #1799. The current collective bargaining agreement
expires on June 30, 2003. The contract includes a 3% pay increase in fiscal
2003. Relations with the Union are considered good. Union membership at
September 11, 2002 was 76 people.
Government Regulations
Compliance with federal, state and local provisions that have been enacted or
adopted to regulate the discharge of materials into the environment, or
otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, did not in 2002, and
the Company believes will not in fiscal year 2003 have a material effect upon
the capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position of the Company.
Item 2. Properties
The Company's manufacturing and engineering facilities are at its plant in
Saratoga Springs, New York.
The Saratoga Springs plant, which the Company owns, consists of various
adjoining one-story buildings. The plant has a sprinkler system throughout and
contains approximately 151,000 square feet of floor space, of which 90,000 is
used for manufacturing, 24,000 for engineering, 33,000 for shipping and
climatically secured storage, and 4,000 for offices. The offices, engineering
and some manufacturing areas are air-conditioned. In addition to assembly and
wiring operations, the plant includes facilities for varnishing, potting,
plating, impregnation and spray-painting operations. The manufacturing operation
also includes a complete machine shop, with welding and sheet metal fabrication
facilities adequate for substantially all of the Company's current operations.
Besides normal test equipment, the Company maintains a sophisticated on-site
environmental test facility. In addition to meeting all of the Company's
in-house needs, the plating, machine shop and environmental facilities are
available to other companies on a contract basis.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Results of Operations
Net Sales for fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, were
$18,405,213, $17,251,640, and $14,719,818, respectively. The 6.7% increase in
sales in 2002 as compared to 2001, is the result of a strong sales order
backlog. The Company continues to realize the benefits of increased business
with existing customers as well as establishing new customer relationships.
These relationships have provided for the continued increase in sales that has
occurred over the last five years. The sales backlog at June 30, 2002 was
approximately $24.6 million. The backlog includes significant orders for land
and shipboard high voltage radar power supply/transmitters, industrial power
supplies, and significant contracts to manufacture certain customer products in
accordance with pre-engineered requirements. The increase in net sales in 2001
as compared to 2000 was also a result of an increased sales order backlog which
allowed the Company to ship significantly more in 2001. Significant shipments in
2001 and 2000 included high voltage radar power supply/transmitters, radar
repair depot, and industrial power supplies.
Net income for fiscal 2002, was $545,754 or $.53 per share compared to
$1,033,069 or $1.00 per share for fiscal 2001. The decrease in income per share
was due to increased expenditures made on engineering development contracts.
These contracts are for the development of new technologies which, if
successful, should significantly enhance the Company's power supply product
offerings and operating income in the future. The decrease in earnings was
partially offset by enhanced internal cost controls, which resulted in lower
selling, general and administrative expenses. Net income for fiscal 2001, was
$1,033,069 or $1.00 per share compared to a net income of $782,943 or $.75 per
share for fiscal 2000. The net income increase in 2001 was due to increased net
sales and a favorable product mix.
For fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000 gross profits were
$2,300,994 $3,061,730, and $2,735,934, respectively. The decrease in gross
profit between 2002 and 2001 was due to increased expenditures made on
engineering development contracts as discussed above. The increase in gross
profit between 2001 and 2000, was predominately due to increased efficiency in
the manufacturing and engineering workforces and an increase in net sales.
5
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,751,855 for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $140,604, or 7.4% as compared to the prior
year. This decrease is mainly attributable to an overall decrease in travel,
freight and labor costs caused by a decrease of approximately five full-time
equivalent employees. Selling, general and administrative expenses were
$1,892,459 for the year ended June 30, 2001, a decrease of $109,858, or 5.5% as
compared to the prior year. The decrease is primarily related to a decrease in
professional fees, officers salaries and employment-related expenses.
Total other income in fiscal 2002, as compared to 2001 declined as expected as
interest rates continued to offer lower returns in fiscal 2002. Total other
income in fiscal 2001, as compared to 2000 declined as expected as interest
rates declined continuously in fiscal 2001.
Business Outlook
The Company continues to increase net sales while also maintaining a sizable
sales backlog. The sales backlog of $28.5 million as of September 11, 2002 gives
the Company a solid base to grow from. In addition to the backlog, the Company
currently has outstanding quotations in excess of $16 million for both repeat
and new programs. The Company has received major contracts for pre-engineered
hardware. The Company also expects to receive substantial orders for spare parts
on the various types of transmitters which are already in the field, a number of
contracts for further development and manufacture of numerous power supplies,
transformers and additional contracts for pre-engineered hardware.
The outstanding quotations encompass various new and previously manufactured
power supplies, transformers, and subassemblies. There can be no assurance that
the Company will acquire any or all of the proposed orders described above since
such a forward-looking statement is subject to future events, market conditions,
political stability of foreign governments, and allocations of the United States
defense budget.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's working capital is an appropriate indicator of the liquidity of
its business, and during the past three fiscal years, the Company, when
possible, has funded all of its operations with cash flows resulting from
operating activities and when necessary from its existing cash and investments.
The Company did not borrow any funds during the last three fiscal years.
Management has available a $3,000,000 uncommitted line of credit to help fund
further growth or working capital needs, if necessary, but does not anticipate
the need for any borrowed funds in the foreseeable future.
The Company's working capital as of June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000 was
$23,730,190, $22,673,494, and $21,211,145, respectively. During 2002, 2001 and
2000 the Company repurchased 0, 4,170, and 30,027 shares, respectively, of its
common stock from the Company's ESOP and in other private and public
transactions, for a total purchase price of $0, $70,891, and $403,472
respectively. Under existing authorizations from the Company's Board of
Directors, as of September 11, 2002, management is authorized to purchase an
additional $854,860 of Company stock.
The table below presents the summary of cash flow information for the fiscal
year indicated:
2002 2001
----------- -----------
Net cash provided by operating activities...........$ 3,656,911 $ 3,073,481
Net cash provided by investing activities........... 576,916 37,263
Net cash used in financing activities .............. 241,601 277,200
Net cash provided by operating activities fluctuates between periods primarily
as a result of differences in net income, the timing of the collection of
accounts receivable, purchases of inventory, level of sales and payments of
accounts payable. Net cash provided by investing activities increased in fiscal
2002 due to the sale of an investment security with no offsetting purchase. The
decrease in cash used in financing activities is due to the decrease in the
amount of treasury stock purchased during 2002 as compared to 2001,
6
which was partially offset by the increased payment of dividends and cash
received from the exercise of stock options.
The Company believes that the cash generated from operations and when necessary,
from existing cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet its
long-term funding requirements for the foreseeable future.
Management believes that the Company's reserve for bad debts of $3,000 is
adequate given the customers with whom the Company does business. The amount of
bad debts over the years has been minimal.
During fiscal year 2002, and 2001, the Company expended approximately $394,000
and $537,000, respectively, for plant improvements and new equipment. The
Company has budgeted approximately $350,000 for new equipment and plant
improvements in fiscal 2003. Management presently anticipates that the funds
required will be available from current operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements. We believe our most critical accounting policies include
revenue recognition and cost estimation on our contracts.
A significant portion of our business is comprised of development and production
contracts which are accounted for under the provisions of the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position No. 81-1,
"Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type
Contracts." Generally revenue on long-term fixed-price contracts are recorded on
a percentage of completion basis using units of delivery as the measurement
basis for progress toward completion.
Contract accounting requires judgment relative to estimating costs and making
assumptions related to technical issues and delivery schedule. Contract costs
include material, subcontract costs, labor and an allocation of indirect costs.
The estimation of cost at completion of a contract is subject to numerous
variables involving contract costs and estimates as to the length of time to
complete the contract. Given the significance of the estimation processes and
judgments described above, it is possible that materially different amounts of
contract costs could be recorded if different assumptions were used in the
estimation of cost at completion. When a change in contract value or estimated
cost is determined, changes are reflected in current period earnings.
Other Matters
An Employee Retirement Plan and Trust ("ESOP") was established for the eligible
non-union employees of the Company and was effective as of July 1, 1988. The
ESOP used the proceeds of a loan from the Company to purchase 316,224 shares of
the Company's common stock for approximately $8,400,000 and the Company
contributed approximately $400,000 to the ESOP, which was used by the ESOP to
purchase an additional 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
Each year the Company makes contributions to the ESOP, which are used to make
loan interest and principal payments. With each loan and interest payment, a
portion of the common stock is allocated to participating employees. As of June
30, 2002, there were 220,888 shares allocated to participants. Dividends
attributable to allocated shares were likewise allocated to the participants'
accounts, whereas the dividends on unallocated shares were used in part of the
loan repayment, thus reducing the Company's required contribution.
The loan from the Company to the ESOP is repayable in annual installments of
$1,039,605, including interest through June 30, 2004. Interest is payable at a
rate of 9% per annum. The Company's receivable from the ESOP is recorded as
common stock subscribed in the accompanying balance sheets.

2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2002 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Nature of operations
Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. and Subsidiary (the Company) is a
manufacturer of electronic equipment used primarily in military and
industrial applications. The principal markets for the Company's products
are companies that provide electronic support to both military and
industrial applications. During 1999, the Company established a foreign
sales corporation (Subsidiary).
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Inventory Valuation, Cost Estimation and Revenue Recognition
Raw materials are stated at the lower of cost or market and are valued at
weighted average cost.
Inventoried work relating to contracts in process and work in process is
valued at actual production cost, including factory overhead incurred to
date. Work in process represents spare units, parts and other inventory
items acquired or produced to service units previously sold or to meet
anticipated future orders. The cost elements of contracts in process and
work in process consist of production costs of goods and services currently
in process and overhead relative to those contracts where such costs are
reimbursable under the terms of the contracts. Provision for losses on
contracts is made when the existence of such losses becomes evident. The
costs attributed to units delivered under contracts are based on the
estimated average cost of all units expected to be produced. Certain
contracts are expected to extend beyond twelve months.
Revenue is recognized on contracts in the period in which the units are
delivered and billed (unit-of-delivery method).
A significant portion of our business is comprised of development and
production contracts which are accounted for under the provisions of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of
Position No. 81-1, "Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and
Certain Production-Type Contracts." Generally revenue on long-term
fixed-price contracts are recorded on a percentage of completion basis
using units of delivery as the measurement basis for progress toward
completion.
Contract accounting requires judgment relative to estimating costs and
making assumptions related to technical issues and delivery schedule.
Contract costs include material, subcontract costs, labor and an allocation
of indirect costs. The estimation of cost at completion of a contract is
subject to numerous variables involving contract costs and estimates as to
the length of time to complete the contract. Given the significance of the
estimation processes and judgments described above, it is possible that
materially different amounts of contract costs could be recorded if
different assumptions were used in the estimation of cost at completion.
When a change in contract value or estimated cost is determined, changes
are reflected in current period earnings.
Depreciation
Depreciation of plant and equipment is computed on a straight-line basis
over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
Under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. In addition, SFAS No. 109 requires
that the tax benefit of tax-deductible dividends
16

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued
on unallocated ESOP shares be recorded as a direct addition to retained
earnings rather than as a reduction of income tax expense.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks, certificates of
deposit, money market accounts, and U.S. Treasury bills with original
maturities of three months or less.
Investment Securities
The Company accounts for its investments in accordance with SFAS No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."
Investment securities at June 30, 2002 and 2001 consist of corporate equity
securities. The Company classifies corporate equity securities as
available-for-sale.
Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, on
available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported
as a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized. Realized
gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are
included in income and are determined using the specific identification
method. Interest income is recognized when earned.
Stock-Based Compensation
The intrinsic value method of accounting is used for stock-based
compensation plans. Under the intrinsic value method, compensation cost is
measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at
the grant date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.
Per Share Amounts
Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing
income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share
reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted into Common
Stock or resulted in the issuance of Common Stock that then shared in the
income of the Company.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income and unrealized gains (losses)
on securities available-for-sale and is presented in the Statement of
Changes in Stockholders' Equity. There were no significant realized gains
(losses) included in net income requiring reclassification adjustments to
other comprehensive income in all years presented.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Tax Credits
Investment tax credits are accounted for as a reduction of income tax
expense in the year taxes payable are reduced.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications may have been made to the prior year financial
statements to conform to the current year presentation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued
Accounting Pronouncements
During the period of June 2001 to June 2002 the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", SFAS No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations", SFAS No, 144, "Accounting for Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Live Assets", SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements
No. 4, 44, 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections as of April 2002", and SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". Management of the Company
does not expect that the adoption of these statements will have an impact
on the consolidated financial statements.
Concentrations of Risk
The market for our defense electronics products is largely dependent on the
availability of new contracts from United States and other foreign
governments to prime contractors to which we provide components. Any
decline in expenditures by United States or foreign governments may have an
adverse effect on our financial performance.
Also, our international sales are denominated in United States currency.
Consequently, changes in exchange rates that strengthen the United States
dollar could increase the price in local currencies of our products in
foreign markets and make our products relatively more expensive than
competitor's products.
3. Investment Securities
Investment securities at June 30, 2002, and 2001 consist of corporate
equity securities, which are classified as available-for-sale securities,
and recorded at market value. The cost, gross unrealized holding losses and
fair value of available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2002 and 2001 are
as follows:
Gross
Unrealized
Year Type Cost Holding Loss Fair Value
----- ----- ----- --------------- ----------
2002 Corporate Equities $ 419,005 $ 51,005 $ 368,000
2001 Corporate Equities $ 819,005 $ 81,405 $ 737,600
The change in unrealized holding loss on available for sale investment
securities net of tax was $20,460 and $56,940 in 2002 and 2001,
respectively. During 2002, the Company sold an equity security with a cost
basis of $400,000 for $399,128 in net proceeds.
4. Contracts in Process
Contracts in process at June 30, 2002 and 2001 are as follows:
2002 2001
------------- ------------
Gross contract value $ 24,644,653 $ 27,446,185
Costs related to contracts in process,
net of progress payments of $ 2,194,269
in 2002 and $289,000 in 2001 $ 7,017,529 $ 11,237,515
Included in costs relating to contracts in process at June 30, 2002 and
2001 are costs of $1,999,616 and $1,693,364, respectively, relative to
contracts that may not be completed within the ensuing year. Under the
unit-of-delivery method, the related sale and cost of sales will not be
reflected in the statement of income until the units under contract are
shipped.

with a financial institution. The agreement provides that the Company may
borrow up to $3,000,000. The line provides for interest at the borrower's
choice of (I) prime minus .75% or (II) LIBOR plus 1.80% for periods of 1,
2, or 3 months. Any borrowing under the line of credit will be
collateralized by accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2002 there were no
borrowings outstanding under this agreement.
7. Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs charged to cost of sales during the years
ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000 were approximately $335,000, $249,000,

at a specified rate and amounted to $83,778 in 2002, $92,662 in 2001, and
$88,660 in 2000.
9. Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes
A summary of the components of the provision (benefit) for income taxes for
the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000 is as follows:
2002 2001 2000
--------- --------- ---------
Current tax expense (benefit)-federal $ 49,653 $ 257,400 $ 295,400
Current tax expense - state 1,383 17,000 11,000
Deferred tax expense (benefit) 131,964 167,635 103,600
--------- --------- ---------
$ 183,000 $ 442,035 $ 410,000
========= ========= =========
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of "temporary differences" between
the amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and
such amounts measured by tax laws and regulations. These "temporary
differences" are determined in accordance with SFAS No. 109.
19
Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes, Continued
The combined U.S. federal and state effective income tax rates of 25%,
30.0%, and 34.4% for 2002, 2001 and 2000 respectively, differed from the
statutory U.S. federal income tax rate for the following reasons:
2002 2001 2000
------ ------ ------
U.S. federal statutory income tax rate 34.0% 34.0% 34.0%
Increase (reduction) in rate
resulting from:
Dividends received deduction (1.0) (0.8) (1.2)
State franchise tax, net of federal
income tax benefit 1.1 1.4 1.7
Foreign sales corporation benefit (7.3) (4.7) (1.0)
Other (1.7) .1 .9
------ ------ ------
Effective tax rate 25.1% 30.0% 34.4%
====== ====== ======
For the years ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 deferred income tax expense of
$131,964 and $167,635, respectively, result from the changes in temporary
differences for each year. The tax effects of temporary differences that
give rise to deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as of June
30, 2002 and 2001 are presented as follows:
2002 2001
-------- --------
Deferred tax assets:
Inventory - differences in valuation methods .................. $ -- $ 30,120
Unrealized loss on available-for-sale
investment securities .................................... 20,102 9,302
Common stock subscribed - due to difference
in interest recognition .................................. 255,983 343,811
Non-deductible accruals ....................................... 92,354 125,699
Other ......................................................... 18,353 19,821
-------- --------
Total deferred tax assets ....................... 386,792 528,753
-------- --------
Deferred tax liabilities:
Property, plant and equipment - principally due
to differences in depreciation methods ................... 376,064 402,563
Inventory - effect on uniform capitalization .................. 45,036 39,333
-------- --------
Total deferred tax liabilities .................. 421,100 441,896
-------- --------
Net deferred tax (liability) asset ................................ $(34,308) $ 86,857
======== ========
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers
whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax
assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the
periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management
considers the schedule reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected
future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this
assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and
projection for future taxable income over the period in which the deferred
tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not
that the Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences
without consideration of a valuation allowance.

outstanding as of or issued subsequent to April 14, 1989. Each right
entitles the holder thereof to buy one-half share of common stock of the
Company at an exercise price of $50 per share subject to adjustment. The
rights are exercisable only if a person or group acquires beneficial
ownership of 15% or more of the Company's common stock or commences a
tender or exchange offer which, if consummated, would result in the offer
or, together with all affiliates and associates thereof, being the
beneficial owner of 15% or more of the Company's common stock.
If a 15% or larger shareholder should engage in certain self-dealing
transactions or a merger with the Company in which the Company is the
surviving corporation and its shares of common stock are not changed or
converted into equity securities of any other person, or if any person were
to become the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the Company's common
stock, then each right not owned by such shareholder or related parties of
such shareholder (all of which will be void) will entitle its holder to
purchase, at the right's then current exercise price, shares of the
Company's common stock having a value of twice the right's exercise price.
In addition, if the Company is involved in any other merger or
consolidation with, or sells 50% or more of its assets or earning power to,
another person, each right will entitle its holder to purchase, at the
right's then current exercise price, shares of common stock of such other
person having a value of twice the right's exercise price.
The Company generally is entitled to redeem the rights at one cent per
right at any time until the 15th day (or 25th day if extended by the
Company's Board of Directors) following public announcement that a 15%
position has been acquired or the commencement of a tender or exchange
offer which, if consummated, would result in the offer or, together with
all affiliates and associates thereof, being the beneficial owner of 15% or
more of the Company's common stock.
12. Employee Stock Ownership Plan
In 1989, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
for eligible non-union employees. The ESOP used the proceeds of a loan from
the Company to purchase 316,224 shares of the Company's common stock for
approximately $8.4 million and the Company contributed approximately
$400,000 in 1989 to the ESOP which was used by the ESOP to purchase an
additional 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Since inception of
the Plan, the ESOP has sold or distributed 83,653 shares of the Company's
common stock to pay benefits to participants. At June 30, 2002 and 2001,
the ESOP held a total of 262,912 and 271,932 shares, respectively, of the
Company's common stock, of which 220,888 and 208,896 shares, respectively,
were allocated to participants in the Plan.

12. Employee Stock Ownership Plan, Continued
The loan from the Company to the ESOP is repayable in annual installments
of $1,039,605 including interest, through June 30, 2004. Interest is
payable at a rate of 9% per annum. The Company's receivable from the ESOP
is recorded as common stock subscribed in the accompanying balance sheets.
The Company recognizes the principal payments of the ESOP debt, on a
straight-line basis over the term of the note, as compensation expense.
Each year, the Company makes contributions to the ESOP which are used to
make loan payments. With each loan payment, a portion of the common stock
is allocated to participating employees. For the periods ended June 30,
2002 and 2001, 21,012 shares were allocated to participants. In 2002, the
Company's required contribution of $1,039,605 was reduced by $18,911, which
represents the dividends paid on unallocated ESOP shares. The resulting
payment of $1,020,694 includes $539,752 classified as compensation expense.
In 2001, the Company's required contribution of $1,039,605 was reduced by
$16,809, which represents the dividends paid on the unallocated ESOP
shares. The resulting payment of $1,022,796 includes $541,853 classified as
compensation expense. In 2000, the Company's required contribution of
$1,039,605 was reduced by $21,012, which represents the dividends paid on
unallocated ESOP shares. The resulting payment of $1,018,593 includes
$537,650 classified as compensation expense. All shares purchased by the
ESOP are considered to be outstanding for the income per share
computations.
13. Stock Options
During fiscal 2000, the Board of Directors and shareholders approved the
2000 Stock Option Plan (the Plan). Under the Plan, incentive and
non-qualified stock options will be granted to purchase shares of common
stock of the Company. As of June 30, 2002, the Plan was authorized to issue
options to purchase 113,500 shares of the Company's common stock with a
maximum of 15,000 shares in any one year.
Options granted under the Plan have been granted at not less than the fair
market value at the grant date and vest over a period of two years.

The Company has elected to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," in accounting for the Plan.
Under APB 25, no compensation expense has been recognized. Had compensation
cost and fair value been determined pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 (FAS 123) "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," net income would have decreased from $545,754 to $509,674,
$1,033,069 to $1,018,526 and $782,943 to $778,296 for the years ended June
30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Proforma basic and diluted earnings
per share would have been $.49, $.99 and $.74 respectively. The initial
impact of FAS 123 on pro forma earnings per share may not be representative
of the effect on income in future years because options vest over several
years and additional option grants may be made each year.
The weighted average fair value of options granted under the plans during
fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2002 was $3.93, $4.67 and $3.71, respectively.
The assumptions used for the Black-Scholes model are as follows:
2002 2001 2000
------ ------ ------
Risk-free interest rate................................. 4.5% 5.0% 6.0%
Expected term........................................... 5 years 5 years 5 years
Company's expected volatility........................... 20.0% 25.0% 16.4%
Dividend yield.......................................... 2.5% 2.5% 2.5%
14. Financial Instruments/Concentration of Credit Risk
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash
equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable
and accrued expenses, approximated fair value as of June 30, 2002 and 2001
because of the relatively short maturities of these instruments.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash
equivalents, investment securities and accounts receivable. The Company
maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. At
times such investments may be in excess of FDIC insurance limits. As
disclosed in Note 10, a significant portion of the Company's business is
the production of military and industrial electronic equipment for use by
the U.S. and foreign Government and certain industrial customers. The
related accounts receivable balance represented by three customers was 39%
and 75% of the Company's total trade accounts receivable balance at June
30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

14. Financial Instruments/Concentration of Credit Risk, Continued
Although the Company's exposure to credit risk associated with nonpayment
of these balances is affected by the conditions or occurrences within the
U.S. Government, the Company believes that its trade accounts receivable
credit risk exposure is limited. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations of its customer's financial conditions and requires collateral,
such as progress payments, in certain circumstances. The Company
establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors
surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and
other information.
15. Related Parties
The Company paid a law firm in which a director of the Company is a
partner, a total of $24,000, $27,000 and $42,000 for legal services during
fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. The Company
paid a director of the Company, a total of approximately $5,600 for
consulting services during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.
