ESPEY MFG. & ELECTRONICS CORP.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

-------------------

1. In the opinion of management the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation for results for
such periods. The results for any interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. These financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited
financial statements included in its 2002 Form 10-K.

2. Other income consists principally of interest on money market accounts and
dividends on equity securities.

3. For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to
be cash equivalents.

4. 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.

5. In fiscal 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 to the ESOP, which was used by the ESOP to purchase
an additional 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock.

As of September 30, 2002 there were 216,577 shares allocated to
participants.


6. Total comprehensive income consists of:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We believe our most critical accounting policies include revenue
recognition and cost estimation on our contracts.

Revenue recognition and cost estimation

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 , contract performance status, or estimated
cost is determined, changes are reflected in current period earnings.

Results of Operations

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2002 were $4,491,359 as
compared to $4,585,515 for the same period in 2001. The $94,156 decrease in
net sales for the three-month period is mainly due to the timing of
shipments on several long-term contracts with deliveries to occur in the
next several quarters. Management anticipates an overall increase in net
sales for the year ending June 30, 2003.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2003 gross profits as a percentage of
sales increased approximately 4.3% as compared with the first quarter of
fiscal 2002. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to lower
production costs from decreased labor hours and a more favorable product
mix. Management's implementation of certain Lean Manufacturing principles
has improved gross profit. Management continues to evaluate the Company's
workforce to insure that production and overall execution of backlog orders
and additional anticipated orders are successfully performed. Present
employment is 194 people.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 was $306,545 or
$.30 per share compared to $203,691 or $.20 per share for the corresponding
period ended September 30, 2001.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $429,307 for the three
months ended September 30, 2002, an increase of $35,275, or 8.9%, as
compared to the three months ended September 30, 2001. This increase was
primarily due to an increase in the cost of health insurance.

Total other income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased
by $28,621, or 37% as compared to the three months ended September 30,
2001. The decrease is due to lower interests rates on the Company's Money
Market accounts. The Company does not believe that there is any risk
associated with its investment policy, since its investments are
represented by a preferred equity security and money market accounts.

The Company continues to diversify its customer base and product offerings.
The backlog at September 30, 2002 was approximately $26,239,000 as compared
to approximately $24,767,000 at September 30, 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

As of September 30, 2002, the Company had working capital of $23.9 million
compared to $23.7 million at June 30, 2002. The Company meets its
short-term financing needs through cash from operations and when necessary,
from its existing cash and short term investments.

The table below presents the summary of cash flow for the periods
indicated:


Three Months Ended September 30,
2002 2001
---- ----


Net cash provided by operating activities $ 84,404 $ 1,340,440
Net cash used in investing activities $(208,217) $ (164,067)
Net cash used in financing activities $ (77,592) $ (77,209)




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, purchase of inventory, level of sales
and payment of accounts payable. Net cash used in investing activities
represents purchases of fixed assets. Net cash used in financing activities
represents dividends on common stock.

The Company currently believes that its current cash and cash equivalent
balances and the cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet
its funding requirements for the next twelve months. Management has in
place an uncommitted $3,000,000 line of credit to help fund further growth.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2003 capital expenditures were
approximately $208,000.

Since the debt of the Company's ESOP is not to an outside party the Company
has eliminated from the Consolidated Statements of Income the offsetting
items of interest income and interest expenses relating to ESOP. The
Company has also eliminated the offsetting accruals from the Consolidated
Balance Sheets.

During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company did
not repurchase any of its common stock. Under existing Board authorization,
as of September 30, 2002, $854,859 could be utilized to repurchase the
Company's common stock.


CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS
OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

It should be noted that in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations are "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The terms "believe,"
"anticipate," "intend," "goal," "expect," and similar expressions may
identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
represent the Company's current expectations or beliefs concerning future
events. The matters covered by these statements are subject to certain
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements,
including the Company's dependence on timely development, introduction and
customer acceptance of new products, the impact of competition and price
erosion, as well as supply and manufacturing constraints and other risks
and uncertainties. The foregoing list should not be construed as
exhaustive, and the Company disclaims any obligation subsequently to revise
any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the
date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or
unanticipated events. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place
undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as
of the date made.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Within the 90-day period prior to the filing date of this report, an
evaluation was conducted under the supervision of and with the
participation of Espey's management, including the Chief Executive Officer
and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that
evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer
have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to
ensure that all material information related to the company and its
consolidated subsidiary is made known to them, particularly during the
period when our periodic reports are being prepared. Subsequent to the date
the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer completed their
evaluation, there have been no significant changes in our internal
controls, or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal
controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses. It should be noted that the design of
any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the
liklihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design
will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future
conditions, regardless of how remote.
