PART I

Item 1.     Business

Introduction

Analex Corporation (“Analex” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of mission-critical professional services to federal government clients. The Company specializes in providing information technology, systems engineering, security services and intelligence services in support of the U.S. Government.

Operations

The Company has one reportable segment that consists of two businesses groups: the Homeland Security Group and the Systems Engineering Group. The Homeland Security Group provides information technology services, systems integration, hardware and software engineering and independent quality assurance in support of the U.S. intelligence community and Department of Defense. With Beta Analytics Inc. (“BAI”) included as a part of the Homeland Security Group, the Homeland Security Group also provides security services, information and technology asset protection solutions, and intelligence analysis to federal government and Department of Defense agencies. (see “Recent Developments”) We expect our Homeland Security Group to benefit from the country’s shifting priorities and new emphasis on enhanced intelligence capabilities. The Systems Engineering Group provides engineering, information technology and program management support to NASA, the Department of Defense, and major aerospace contractors such as Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman, as well as smaller prime contractors.

Homeland Security Group.    Since 1964, the Company has provided hardware and software engineering, systems integration, information technology solutions and independent quality assurance to support the requirements of the U.S. intelligence community. The Homeland Security Group’s role in the support of the intelligence community brings specialized skills to a broad set of technical requirements. In the area of intelligence, reconnaissance and surveillance, it provides solutions that enable the simulation of a realistic operational environment so that satellites and related systems can be tested prior to deployment. Homeland Security performs verification and validation of test results to ensure the reliability of the data and also develops radar, modeling and simulation, and system software, all in support of testing, collecting, and analyzing data from various intelligence systems.

The Homeland Security Group is an independent expert in the design and testing of expendable launch vehicles for the Department of Defense and intelligence community. Its highly specialized expertise provides test analysis and independent validation and verification support in areas such as structural dynamics, trajectory and performance, thermal system performance, and range safety.

Homeland Security provides independent validation and verification services to the United States Air Force and the National Reconnaissance Office (“NRO”) in support of launches of expendable launch vehicles. The Company’s contribution to the success and reliability of these launches has earned two prestigious awards: the Department of Defense’s David Packard Excellence in Acquisition Award, and the National Reconnaissance Office’s Gold Medal Award. In October 2004, the NRO awarded Analex a three-year contract extension valued at $43 million. The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Sycom Services Inc., supports Northrop Grumman in development of sophisticated airborne electronic sensors and systems.

With BAI included as a part of the Homeland Security Group, the Group also provides protection solutions for militarily critical technologies, security management support services, and intelligence and threat analysis support to federal government and Department of Defense agencies. BAI’s largest contract is with the Missile Defense Agency (“MDA”) where security support includes an effective partnership with the Ballistic Missile Defense System (“BMDS”) program. Services provided include: security to protect the enterprise; serving as the foreign disclosure authority for the Missile Defense Agency to manage international security operations; responsibility for the management and execution of counterintelligence; Operation Security services in support of

1

BMDS worldwide; managing the MDA Sensitive Compartmented Information (“SCI”) security operations and all internal security programs; and operating and maintaining the Security Operations Center/Access Control Center. BAI’s level of support to MDA depends on the funding and service requirements of MDA. In early 2005, MDA announced certain staffing reductions and that may cause a significant reduction in the Company’s future level of service delivered to MDA. In support of the U.S. Army, BAI was awarded a contract to establish and operate the Army Research and Technology Protection Center (ARTPC) under the Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence as the single Army focal point for the integration of technology and acquisition program protection.

Homeland Security supports other intelligence agencies such as the National Security Agency by providing software development, systems integration, configuration management and network administration services. A substantial majority of the Company’s operating income, 113% in 2004, is derived from this Group, primarily from one contract.

Systems Engineering Group.    The Systems Engineering Group provides sophisticated professional services to NASA, the Department of Defense and major aerospace contractors such as Lockheed Martin. The Company provides engineering and information technology services to assist in the development of space systems and support operations of terrestrial assets. The Group assists in the launch of expendable launch vehicles and satellites, and assists in the design and construction of space-based experiments and components and payloads associated with the International Space Station.

The Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support (“ELVIS”) contract with NASA was effective June 1, 2002 and has a nine-year and four-month period of performance if all option terms are exercised. Under the ELVIS contract, Analex provides a broad range of expendable launch vehicle support services for NASA requirements at John F. Kennedy Space Center, Florida; Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida; Vandenberg Air Force Base, California; and other locations. Under the contract, Analex is responsible for engineering services, performing safety and mission assurance functions, and providing communications, computing and telemetry support. In October 2003, Analex was named Small Business Prime Contractor of the Year by NASA’s Kennedy Space Center based on the Company’s outstanding performance on the ELVIS contract.

Under the ELVIS contract, the Company is the prime contractor with two major subcontractors performing various functions. Approximately 19% of the contract is expected to be performed by the subcontractors. As the prime contractor, the Company is responsible for all aspects of work performed by the subcontractors including, but not limited to, quality of work, timeliness of performance, and cost control. The Company records all customer payments under this contract as revenue and all subcontractor invoices as contract costs. Approximately 28% of the Company’s revenue in 2004 was derived from the ELVIS contract.

The Systems Engineering Group provides a broad range of engineering and technical services, including supporting the programs of NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio via the Glenn Engineering and Scientific Services (“GESS”) subcontract with QSS Corporation. These support services include development of next generation launch vehicles, engineering design and development of aerospace systems, engineering support to research and technology development, engineering support to operations of experimental systems, and project management support. This contract provided $11.6 million in revenue, or 12.3% of the Company’s revenue for 2004. The contract is scheduled to terminate in April 2006. The Company is currently a subcontractor to a small-business prime contractor on this contract. The Company plans to participate in a follow-on re-compete with another small-business prime contractor for the follow-on award of the contract in 2006.

Under the Company’s Microgravity Research Development and Operations Contract (“MRDOC”) subcontract with Northrop Grumman, the Systems Engineering Group also supports NASA Glenn Research Center in development of an automated laboratory environment to be installed aboard the International Space Station to enable research in the performance of fluids and combustion in the near-zero gravity of space. The Company participates in the design, development, manufacturing, test and delivery of the fluids and combustion facility and associated subsystems. The contract is scheduled to continue through November 2007. However,

2

activity under this contract has been declining for the past two years since funding for additional experimentation facilities for the International Space Station has not been forthcoming. In 2004, the contract provided $4.1 million in revenue, or 4.3% of the Company’s total revenue for the year.

The Company’s operating profit is derived from the combination of operating profit from its Homeland Security and Systems Engineering Groups, offset by certain costs incurred at its corporate headquarters that are not allocable to the two groups, such as intangible amortization expenses and internal costs incurred in connection with the mergers and acquisitions related activities.

During the second quarter of 2004, the Company concluded that Advanced Biosystems, Inc. (ABS), a then wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, did not fit with the Company’s long-term strategic plan and decided to divest ABS. The Company disposed of ABS on November 16, 2004. (see “Recent Developments”) After the disposition of ABS, the Company has two wholly-owned subsidiaries, SyCom Services Inc. (“SyCom”) and Beta Analytics, Inc. (“BAI”).

Government Procurement and Significant Customers

The principal customer for the Company’s services is the U.S. government. The Company’s sales to the U.S. government and its prime contractors represented approximately 100%, 99%, and 98% of total net sales during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, 2003, 2002, respectively and are expected to continue to account for almost all of the Company’s revenue for the foreseeable future.

The principal U.S. government customer is the Department of Defense, which, directly or through its prime contractors, accounted for approximately 55%, 42%, and 48%, of the Company’s revenue in the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. With the acquisition of the former Analex Corporation in November 2001, NASA became a significant customer, generating 44%, 57%, and 50% of revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Approximately 63% of our revenue from NASA for fiscal year 2004 came from one prime contract, which has a potential nine-year and four-month total contract term if all options are exercised. In addition, the Homeland Security Group’s contract with one Department of Defense customer generated 16% of the Company’s revenue and 64% of the Company’s operating income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004.

During 2004, the Company derived revenue from two subcontracts with Northrop Grumman and one with QSS Group, Inc., which in the aggregate comprised 12% and 12%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenue for the year. Approximately 68% of the Company’s revenue was generated as a prime contractor to the federal government and approximately 32% of the Company’s revenue was generated as a subcontractor to a prime contractor to the federal government during the year ended December 31, 2004.

The Company’s contracts with the U.S. government are subject to the availability of funds through annual appropriations, may be terminated by the government for its convenience at any time, and generally do not require the purchase of a fixed quantity of services or products. Reductions in U.S. government defense spending could adversely affect the Company’s operating results. Contracts with the U.S. government are subject to audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency.

The Company has been a contractor or subcontractor with the Department of Defense continuously since 1973 with periodic renewals. During this time, neither the Company nor its subsidiaries have experienced any material adjustment of profits under its contracts. However, no assurance can be given that the Department of Defense will not seek and obtain an adjustment of profits in the future. All U.S. government contracts contain clauses that allow for the termination of contracts at the convenience of the U.S. government.

The preponderance of the Company’s technical and professional services business with the Department of Defense and other governmental agencies is obtained through competitive procurement and through follow-on services related to existing business. In certain instances, however, the Company acquires such service contracts because of special professional competency or proprietary knowledge in specific subject areas.

Government Contracts

Direct and indirect contracts with government defense and intelligence agencies comprise the majority of the Company’s business base. During 2004, 42% of the Company’s contracts were cost-reimbursement, 39% were time-and-materials, and 19% were firm fixed-price type contracts. However, 40% of the Company’s contracts which are cost reimbursable contracts contain ceilings on various categories of expenses. Therefore, if the Company incurs expenses in excess of these ceilings, the Company will not be fully reimbursed by the government. Following are brief descriptions of the various types of contracts the Company receives from the government.

Cost-reimbursement contracts provide for payment of allowable incurred costs, to the extent prescribed in the contract, plus a profit component. These contracts establish an estimate of total cost for the purpose of obligating funds and establishing a ceiling that the contractor may not exceed without the approval of the contracting officer. Cost-reimbursement contracts are suitable for use when uncertainties involved in contract performance do not permit costs to be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use a fixed-price contract. Cost-reimbursement contracts covered by the Federal Acquisition Regulation require an audit of actual costs and provide for upward or downward adjustments if actual recoverable costs differ from billed recoverable costs. If our costs exceed the ceiling or are not allowable under the terms of the contract or applicable regulations, we may not be able to recover those costs.

Time-and-materials (T&M) contracts provide for acquiring services on the basis of direct labor hours at specified fixed hourly rates. A T&M contract may also provide for acquiring materials, including, if appropriate, material handling costs. Profit margins on T&M contracts fluctuate based on the difference between negotiated billing rates and actual labor and overhead costs directly charged or allocated to such contracts. We assume the risk that a contract’s costs of performance may exceed the negotiated hourly rates.

Firm fixed-price contracts provide for delivery of products or services for a price that is negotiated in advance on the basis of the contractor’s cost experience. The price is not subject to any adjustment unless there is a change in the scope of work. Profit margins increase to the extent that costs are below the contracted amounts. If the costs exceed the estimates, profit margins decrease and a loss may be realized on the contract. Two percent (2%) of the Company’s contracts are firm fixed-price, level of effort contracts. This type of contract provides a fixed hourly rate for services rendered and a minimum required level of service, usually measured in hours of services delivered. If the Company completes a task with less than the required level of effort, the Company may be obligated to return a portion of the service fees invoiced.

Contract Backlog

The Company’s backlog of orders, based on remaining contract value, believed to be firm as of December 31, 2004 was approximately $192 million. The portion of the total backlog expected to be realized within 2005 is $98 million. Funded backlog as of December 31, 2004 was approximately $57 million. Included in the backlog approximation are amounts from future years of government contracts under which the government has the right to exercise an option for the Company to perform services.

Competition

In general, the industry in which the Company operates includes a large number of competitors of varying sizes. Competition within the information technology and government contracting arenas is intense. The Company maintains a primary commitment to its current direct and indirect government clients, while intensifying its business development efforts to win additional government clients. The Company is continuing efforts to diversify its client base.

Analex generally competes against federal systems integrators such as Anteon International Corporation, CACI International Inc., Computer Sciences Corporation, and Science Applications International Corporation,

4

among others including a variety of small, privately-held government contractors offering information technology and systems engineering services to the U.S. government. In addition, the Systems Engineering Group competes against large aerospace contractors such as Boeing and Lockheed Martin and other small privately held firms in the provision of launch related services. Selection is based primarily on a combination of the price of services and evaluation of technical capability, as well as past performance, quality of service and responsiveness to client requirements.

The Company believes that the Homeland Security Group has a competitive advantage in its skilled engineers and customer relationships within the intelligence community and in its expertise and experience with independent verification and validation of space launch vehicles. With BAI, the Company believes that it has a competitive advantage in protecting technical information developed by the Department of Defense against penetration by unauthorized personnel. However, larger government contractors can provide a breadth of professional offerings that our Homeland Security Group may not be able to match. The Company also believes that the Systems Engineering Group has a competitive advantage in space launch support, especially in the expendable launch vehicle support segment, arising from the Company’s work on the ELVIS contract. Given the Company’s size, larger government contractors operating in this business area may be able to provide a breadth of service offerings beyond the Company’s capabilities.

Employees

As of December 31, 2004, the Company (including its subsidiaries) employed approximately 920 people including full time, part time and casual employees. Of the 920 employees, 49 are members of unions, and employee relations are believed by management to be generally good. On November 1, 2002, the Company entered into a three-year Collective Bargaining Agreement with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters now representing approximately 39 employees on the NASA ELVIS contract at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. In February 2003, the Company entered into a three-year Collective Bargaining Agreement with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers now representing approximately 11 employees on the NASA ELVIS contract at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

General Information

Raw materials, patents, licenses, trademarks, franchises and concessions are not material to the operation of the Company’s business and the Company’s business is not seasonal. The Company derives no revenue from foreign operations.

Recent Developments

On May 28, 2004, Analex acquired Beta Analytics, Inc. (“BAI”). BAI provides information and technology asset protection solutions, intelligence analysis, and security services to federal government and Department of Defense agencies. BAI’s services cover a range of life cycle protection and physical security services specifically in the areas of information protection, physical security, intelligence threat assessment and analysis, technology protection, security management and security education and training. BAI is currently reported as a part of the Homeland Security Group.

On May 28, 2004, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Series B Purchase Agreement”) with General Electric Pension Trust (“GEPT”), New York Life Capital Partners II, L.P. (“NYL”), Pequot Private Equity Fund III, L.P., and Pequot Offshore Private Equity Partners III, L.P., (collectively, “Pequot,” together with GEPT and NYL, collectively, the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Investors convertible secured senior subordinated promissory notes (“Series B Senior Subordinated Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $12,000,000. The outstanding principal of $12,000,000 on the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes was subsequently converted into 3,428,571 shares of Series B Preferred Stock upon stockholders’ approval at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders on

5

September 15, 2004. The per share conversion price of the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes into the Series B Preferred Stock was $3.50 (the “Series B Original Issue Price”) and the conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock into the Company’s Common Stock is $2.80. In connection with the issuance and sale of the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes, the Company also issued to Investors Common Stock Warrants to purchase 857,142 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $4.32 per share. The Series B Senior Subordinated Notes and the related Common Stock Warrants sold and issued to the Investors pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement in May 2004 together with the Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Investors in September 2004 are collectively referred to as the “Series B Instruments.” The accounting treatment of the Series B Instruments is discussed in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

During the second quarter of 2004, the Company concluded that ABS, a then wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, did not fit with the Company’s long-term strategic plan and decided to divest ABS. The Company disposed of ABS on November 16, 2004. Therefore, the results of operations of ABS are reported as discontinued operations, net of applicable income taxes, for all periods presented in accordance with SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Historically, ABS has been reported under a separate business segment of the Company.

Subsequent Event

On March 22, 2005, the Company issued a press release announcing that a non-binding letter of intent had been signed in December 2004 with ComGlobal Systems, Incorporated for the acquisition of ComGlobal by the Company for approximately $47 million in cash. The Company anticipates financing the acquisition with a combination of senior bank debt and the Series B Preferred Stock facility approved by the stockholders at the Annual Stockholders’ Meeting in September 2004. The transaction is expected to be consummated within 30 days from March 22, 2005 and is subject to the completion of due diligence, the execution of definitive agreements, the approval of the ComGlobal stockholders and other closing conditions.

Available Information

The Company files annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The public may read and copy any materials the Company files with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC, including the Company. The Company also provides a link to certain of its most recent filings with the SEC at the Company’s Internet site at http://www.analex.com. The information contained on the Company’s Internet site is not part of this Annual Report.

Item 2.    Properties

As of December 31, 2004, the Company owns real property valued at $391,000 with approximately 4,300 square feet. This property, the former corporate headquarters of BAI, is located in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. The Company leased a total of approximately 84,000 square feet of office space at various locations in Virginia, Maryland, Colorado and Ohio. These leases expire at various dates through 2008. (See Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Item 3.    Legal Proceedings

The Company was served on October 9, 2003 with a complaint filed by Swales & Associates, Inc. (“Swales”) alleging breach of contract and other claims relating to Swales’ termination as a subcontractor under the Company’s ELVIS contract with NASA. The Company entered into a Settlement Agreement dated July 22, 2004 with Swales. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Company paid $1,000,000 to Swales in July 2004. Included in the $1,000,000 settlement is approximately $320,000 for work performed by Swales prior to termination. This amount was billed to NASA and payment was received by the Company. Legal fees are expected to be approximately $290,000. Based on an opinion by counsel, the Company believes that the unreimbursed amount of the settlement payment, together with legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation, are costs that are reimbursable under the ELVIS contract with NASA. Therefore, a receivable in the amount of $970,000 has been booked. However, on July 28, 2004, based upon discussions with the customer, the Company received from NASA a Notice of Intent to Disallow Costs. Notwithstanding the Notice of Intent to Disallow Costs, the Company continues to believe that the costs of the settlement will be reimbursed by NASA. Discussions with NASA are continuing. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will in fact be reimbursed in full by NASA in the foreseeable future.

Item 4.    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The Company held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders on September 15, 2004. Results of the meeting can be found in Item 4 of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2004, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2004, and the same is being incorporated by reference herein.

PART II

Prior to March 3, 2003, the Company’s Common Stock was traded over the counter (OTC) and quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “ANLX”. On March 4, 2003, the Common Stock was listed on the American Stock Exchange and began trading under the symbol “NLX”.

The range of the high and low sales prices for the Common Stock, as reported on the American Stock Exchange, for each quarterly period during 2004 and 2003 are shown below. The prices presented below reflect inter-dealer prices without retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions, and may not reflect actual transactions.

As of March 21, 2005, there were approximately 2,275 shareholders of record of the Company’s Common Stock. No cash dividends were paid to common shareholders during 2004 or during the past three fiscal years, and no dividends are expected to be declared during 2005 for common shareholders. The ability of the Company

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the “Selected Consolidated Financial Data”, and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

Overview

Analex is a leading provider of mission-critical professional services to federal government clients. The Company specializes in providing information technology, systems engineering, security services and intelligence services in support of the U.S. Government. All of our sales are generated using written contractual arrangements. The contracts require us to deliver technical services to the intelligence community, analyze and support defense systems, design, develop and test aerospace systems according to the specifications provided by our customers.

During 2004, the Company had revenue of $94.4 million compared to $62.3 million for the prior year, a 51.5% increase. While 32.5% of this increase was attributable to BAI, approximately 19% growth in revenue for the year was attributable to organic growth. Operating income was $6.3 million compared to $3.6 million for 2003, and operating margin grew to 6.7% compared to 5.7% for 2003. Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”) grew 96% from $4.1 million in 2003 to $8.0 million in 2004, with EBITDA margins grown from 6.6% in 2003 to 8.5% in 2004. Net loss to common shareholders was $9.2 million compared with a net income to common shareholders for the prior year of $2.5 million. This is primarily due to the substantial non-cash interest and accretion charges related to the Series A and Series B financing. These charges amounted to $11.4 million for 2004, and $0.4 million for 2003.

During the second quarter of 2004, the Company concluded that Advanced Biosystems, Inc. (ABS), a then wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, did not fit with the Company’s long-term strategic plan and decided to divest ABS. ABS was engaged in biomedical research for broad-spectrum defenses against toxic agents capable of being used as bioterrorist weapons, such as anthrax and smallpox. The Company disposed of ABS on November 16, 2004. Therefore, the results of operations of ABS are reported as discontinued operations, net of applicable income taxes, for all periods presented in accordance with SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Historically, ABS has been reported under a separate business segment of the Company.

On May 28, 2004, Analex acquired Beta Analytics, Inc. (“BAI”). BAI is now reported as a part of the Homeland Security Group. BAI provides information and technology asset protection solutions, intelligence analysis, and security services to federal government and Department of Defense agencies. BAI’s services cover a range of life cycle protection and physical security services specifically in the areas of information protection, physical security, intelligence threat assessment and analysis, technology protection, security management and security education and training. We believe that our acquisition of BAI will continue to yield significant yearly revenue and strong operating income to the Company.

Sales to U.S. federal government agencies and their prime contractors represented approximately 100% and 99% of our total net sales during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. The Department of Defense accounted for approximately 55% and 42% of our revenue in the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. NASA is our largest customer, generating 44% and 57% of our revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Approximately 16% of our revenue and 64% of our operating income for fiscal year 2004 came from one prime contract with an agency within the Department of Defense. Approximately 28% of our revenue for fiscal year 2004 came from one prime contract with NASA, which has a potential nine-year and four-month contract term if all options are exercised. We expect that federal government contracts will continue to be the source of substantially all of our revenue for the foreseeable future.

9

In 2004, 68% of our revenue was generated as a prime contractor to the federal government. We intend to focus on retaining and increasing the percentage of our business as prime contractor because it provides us with stronger client relationships. The following table shows our revenue as prime contractor and as subcontractor as a percentage of our total revenue for the following periods:

We have one reportable segment that is engaged in professional services related to information technology and systems engineering for the U.S. government, primarily NASA and the Department of Defense. This segment consists of two business groups: the Homeland Security Group and the Systems Engineering Group. The Homeland Security Group provides information technology services, systems integration, hardware and software engineering and independent quality assurance in support of the U.S. intelligence community and Department of Defense. The Systems Engineering Group provides engineering, information technology and program management support to NASA, the Department of Defense, and major aerospace contractors such as Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman, as well as smaller prime contractors.

The Company’s operating profit is derived from the combination of operating profit from its Homeland Security and Systems Engineering Groups, offset by certain costs incurred at its corporate headquarters that are not allocable to the two groups such as intangible amortization expenses and internal costs incurred in connection with mergers and acquisitions related activities.

Our services are provided under three types of contracts: cost-reimbursement, time-and-materials, and fixed price contracts.

10

The following table shows our revenue from each of these types of contracts as a percentage of our total revenue for the past three years:

However, over 95% of the cost reimbursable contracts contain ceilings on various categories of expenses. Therefore if the Company incurs expenses above these ceilings, the Company will not be reimbursed by the government.

Our objective is to grow sales organically and through acquisitions. In order to assist in accomplishing this objective, we have continued to increase our selling, general and administrative expenditures so as to increase our efforts in new business development and to provide the necessary infrastructure to support a larger organization resulting from organic growth and acquisitions.

We plan to selectively acquire companies that complement and enhance our existing businesses, and are currently reviewing potential targets. We anticipate that we will need to obtain additional financing through sale of equity and debt securities to fund our acquisitions.

The Company’s backlog of orders, based on remaining contract value, believed to be firm as of December 31, 2004 was approximately $192 million. The portion of the total backlog expected to be realized within 2005 is $98 million. Funded backlog as of December 31, 2004 was approximately $57 million. Included in the backlog approximation are amounts from future years of government contracts under which the government has the right to exercise an option for the Company to perform services.

All of our U.S. Government contracts are subject to audit and various cost controls, and include standard provisions for termination for the convenience of the U.S. Government. Multi-year U.S. Government contracts and related orders are subject to cancellation if funds for contract performance for any subsequent year become unavailable.

Results of Operations

Comparison of year over year results

Revenue

2004 v. 2003— Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 was approximately $94.4 million, a 51.5% increase from the $62.3 million in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003. Revenue for the Homeland Security Group grew by $25.5 million, or 94%, over last year. Of this increase, $20.2 million was attributable to BAI while the remainder can be attributed to a 19% growth in services provided to the Department of Defense, intelligence community and related agencies. Revenue for the Systems Engineering Group grew by $6.7 million, or 19%. This growth is primarily due to growth in our services rendered in connection with our ELVIS and Glenn Engineering & Support Services (GESS) contracts (both with NASA), which amounted to an aggregate of approximately $7.7 million. This increase was offset by a decline of $1.1 million due to our reduced efforts on the Microgravity Research Development and Operations (MRDOC) contract. The GESS contract is scheduled to terminate in April 2006, and the Company plans to participate in a re-compete for the award of a follow-on contract in 2006.

2003 v. 2002— Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 was approximately $62.3 million, an 18.7% increase from the $52.5 million in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2002. Revenue for the Homeland Security Group grew by $2.1 million, or 8.5%, due to growth in services provided to the Department of Defense, intelligence community and related agencies. Revenue for the Systems Engineering Group grew by $7.8 million, or 28%. This growth was primarily due to a full year of revenue generated by the ELVIS contract that began on July 1, 2002, which amounted to an $11.2 million increase in revenue from 2002 to 2003. This increase was offset by a decline of $4.0 million in the Systems Engineering Group due to reduced efforts on the MRDOC contract.

12

Cost of revenue

2004 v. 2003—Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 was approximately $75.9 million, an increase of approximately 44.5% from the $52.5 million from the prior year. The Homeland Security Group increased approximately $18.3 million over the prior year, $15.4 million of which was attributable to BAI, with the remaining increase of $2.9 million attributable to the growth in services provided to the Department of Defense, intelligence community and related agencies. Revenue of the Systems Engineering Group increased approximately $5.4 million over last year. Efforts performed on our ELVIS and GESS contracts increased $6.6 million, while efforts performed on the MRDOC contract declined $1.2 million. Costs of revenue as a percentage of revenue declined from 2003 to 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2004, cost of revenue was approximately 80% compared to 84% for the year ended December 31, 2003.

2003 v. 2002—Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 was approximately $52.5 million, an increase of approximately 17% from the prior year. The increase is primarily due to the costs of revenue within the Systems Engineering Group associated with the ELVIS contract. The cost of revenue of the ELVIS contract was approximately $19.2 million for 2003 compared to $8.8 million for 2002. This was offset by a reduction of $3.7 million due to declining efforts on the MRDOC contract. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue declined from 2002 to 2003. For the year ended December 31, 2003, cost of revenue was approximately 84% compared to 85% for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

2004 v. 2003—Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $10.8 million, or 11.4% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with approximately $5.8 million, or 9.3% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of BAI on May 28, 2004, which added approximately $1.8 million in expenses. Increases in our senior management staff and accounting department amounted to an additional $0.9 million, while professional fees associated with our Sarbanes Oxley section 404 compliance, accounting system conversion, and mergers and acquisitions efforts amounted to $1.0 million. The remaining increase is attributable to various factors including increases in corporate insurance, legal fees, and recruiting expenses.

2003 v. 2002—Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $5.8 million, or 9.3% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with approximately $4.3 million, or 8.3% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2002. The $1.5 million, or 33%, increase was due to various factors including the addition of senior business development staff members and increased general and administrative expenses such as corporate insurance, legal fees, shareholder communications expenses, recruiting expenses, and board of director fees.

Amortization expense

2004 v. 2003—The Company had amortization expense of $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared to amortization expense of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in amortization expense was due to amortization of intangible assets established with the purchase of BAI of $0.9 million.

2003 v. 2002—The Company had amortization expense of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared to amortization expense of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in amortization expense was due to the non-compete agreement with Jon Stout, which was entered into in connection with the Series A financing in December 2003, and amortization expense related to intangible assets established with the award of the ELVIS contract.

13

Operating income

2004 v. 2003—The Company had operating income of approximately $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared to operating income of approximately $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This $2.7 million increase was due to increased operating income from the operational groups offset by additional selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating income for the Homeland Security Group increased $3.6 million over the prior year primarily due to the acquisition of BAI, which added $2.0 million to operating income. The remaining $1.6 million increase was attributable to growth in services provided to the Department of Defense, intelligence community, and related agencies. Operating income for the Systems Engineering Group increased by $0.5 million, primarily due to the ELVIS contract. In addition, increased selling, general and administrative expenses (as noted above) and intangible amortization expenses contributed to a decrease in operating income by $1.4 million.

2003 v 2002—The Company had operating income of approximately $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared to operating income of approximately $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. This $.4 million increase was primarily attributable to operating income within the Systems Engineering Group generated by the ELVIS contract, which was approximately $0.9 million over the prior year after being offset by a decrease of $0.4 million in operating income generated by the MRDOC contract. The Homeland Security Group experienced increased operating income of $0.3 million, or 11%, due to growth in services provided to the intelligence community and related agencies. Also contributing to decreased operating income was increased selling, general and administrative expenses as noted above.

Interest expense

2004 v. 2003—The Company had interest expense of $9.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared to interest expense of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase was primarily due to non-cash interest charges related to the Series A and Series B financing, which totaled $7.7 million. During 2004, a full year of accretion of non-cash interest charges on the Company’s Series A Convertible Notes issued in December 2003, amounted to an increase of approximately $1.8 million over last year. In addition, the Company incurred $5.8 million of non-cash accretion charges recorded as interest expense associated with the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes issued in May 2004 to finance a portion of the cash consideration of BAI. In addition, cash interest paid on the Series A Convertible Notes amounted to $0.7 million, an increase of $0.6 million over last year. Cash interest paid on the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes was $0.3 million. The Series B Senior Subordinated Notes were converted to Series B Preferred Stock on September 15, 2004.

2003 v. 2002—The Company had interest expense of $.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared to interest expense of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to the removal of guarantee fees associated with the Bank of America Credit Agreement. In addition, during 2003, the Company began accounting for the accretion of non-cash interest charges on its Series A Convertible Notes issued in December 2003. This accretion charge amounted to $120,500.

Income tax expense

2004 v. 2003—Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $1.2 million compared with $0.3 million in the prior year. The Company’s effective tax rate changed significantly from 2003 to 2004 due to the permanent differences created by the expenses related to the Series A Instruments and the Series B Instruments issued in 2003 and 2004, respectively. The following charges on the Company’s income statement are among those that are not deductible for income tax purposes: (a) the amortization of intangibles related to the BAI acquisition and (b) the portion of the non-cash accretion interest charges associated with the Series A Convertible Notes and the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes (for the portion of the year the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes were outstanding) to the extent these non-cash charges are related to the embedded beneficial conversion feature of those Notes. In addition, during 2004, the majority of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards had been consumed.

14

2003 v. 2002—Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $0.3 million compared with $0.1 million in the prior year. The Company’s effective tax rate did not change significantly from 2002 to 2003. In both years, the Company’s provision for income taxes was limited to state taxes and alternative minimum tax as the Company had been able to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income.

Income (loss) from continuing operations

2004 v. 2003—Loss from continuing operations for 2004 amounted to $3.8 million, a decrease of $6.5 million from the $2.7 million income in 2003.

2003 v. 2002—Income from continuing operation for 2003 amounted to $2.7 million, an increase of $599,000, or 28%, over the $2.1 million for 2002.

Net Income (loss) to the common shareholders

2004 v. 2003—Income from discontinued operations was $8,200 in 2004, and $15,500 in 2003. Due to the disposition of ABS in November 2004, the loss on disposal of discontinued operations was $0.5 million for 2004 as compared to $0 in 2003. Dividend expense on the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock during 2004 amounted to approximately $1.1 million as compared to $0.1 million for 2003, with additional non-cash accretion charges of approximately $3.8 million in 2004 as compared to $0.2 million in 2003. Net loss to the common shareholders for 2004 amounted to $9.2 million as compared to a net income to the common shareholders for 2003 of $2.5 million.

2003 v. 2002—Income from discontinued operations was $15,500 in 2003 compared to $224,300 in 2002. Dividend expense during 2003 amounted to approximately $56,700, with an additional non-cash accretion charge of approximately $236,000. There was no dividend expense or accretion charges in 2002. Net income to the common shareholders for 2003 amounted to $2.5 million as compared to $2.4 million in 2002.

Accounting Treatment of The Series A Financing

On December 9, 2003, the Company consummated the transactions (the “Series A Transaction”) contemplated by the Series A Subordinated Note and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and Pequot Private Equity Fund III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and Pequot Offshore Private Equity Partners III, L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (collectively, “Pequot”) dated July 18, 2003. The Company:

The Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A Convertible Notes and the Series A related Warrants are collectively referred to hereinafter as the “Series A Instruments.”

15

Series A Preferred Stock

The Company determined the initial carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock by a two-step allocation process: first to the associated warrants; and second, to an embedded conversion option. First the Company allocated the proceeds from the sale of the Series A Preferred Stock between the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series A Preferred Warrants based on their relative fair values, which resulted in recording a discount on the Series A Preferred Stock. The value of the Series A Warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Series A Preferred Warrants were valued based on (i) the exercise price of $3.28 pursuant to the Series A Purchase Agreement, (ii) the stock price of $4.04 as of the closing date of December 9, 2003 (the “Series A Closing Date”), (iii) a risk free rate of 2.80%, (iv) a volatility of 94.80%, and (v) an expected term of the Series A Preferred Warrants of four years. The risk free rate was equal to the four-year U.S. Treasury rate, based on a period that is four years from the Series A Closing Date. The volatility was based on an average of three measurements: the actual volatility in the Company’s stock price over the four years prior to the Series A Closing Date; the actual volatility in the Company’s stock price from November 3, 2001 (the date of the acquisition of the former Analex Corporation) to the Series A Closing Date; and the actual volatility in the Company’s stock price from March 4, 2003 (the date the Company’s Common Stock was first listed on the American Stock Exchange) to the Series A Closing Date. The resulting allocation of value to the Series A Preferred Stock Warrants was $3.9 million.

Second, In accordance with EITF No. 00-27, Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments, after allocating the Series A Preferred Stock proceeds as described above, the Company calculated the embedded conversion price and used it to measure the intrinsic value of the embedded conversion option. This was determined by calculating the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible. The value allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock (after value was allocated to the Series A Preferred Warrants) was then divided by the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible. The result, $1.66, was then compared to the current fair value of $4.04, the Company’s stock price as of the Series A Closing Date. Since the conversion price was less than the fair value as of the Series A Closing Date, a beneficial conversion feature exists. The difference between the conversion price and the fair value as of the Series A Closing Date was multiplied by the total number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible. The result was a beneficial conversion of approximately $11.1 million. The amount of the beneficial conversion was recorded as additional paid in capital, resulting in a further discount on the Series A Preferred Stock. The table below details the accounting treatment of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Allocation of Series A Preferred Stock Proceeds

16

The combined discount on the Series A Preferred Stock created as a result of the allocation of fair value to the Series A Preferred Warrants and the beneficial conversion charge will be accreted to the Series A Preferred Stock over a four-year period from the date of issuance. Issuance costs of $622,600 are recorded as an additional discount and will be accreted to the Series A Preferred Stock over a four-year period.

The Series A Preferred Stock accrues dividends at 6% per annum payable quarterly in cash. Therefore, the Company will accrue and pay the dividends payable each quarter at $225,000. Both the accretion of and dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will reduce net income attributable to common stockholders.

The annual cash dividend payable on the Series A Preferred Stock amounts to $900,000 and the annual non-cash accretion amounts to $3,750,000. The total annual charge related to the Series A Preferred Stock, thus, amounts to $4,650,000.

If the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock were to convert their shares into Common Stock, there would be a one-time, non-cash charge to write-off the unamortized discount related to the Series A Preferred Stock. The unamortized discount is comprised of the amount allocated to the fair value of the Series A Preferred Warrants, the discount on the Series A Preferred Stock due to the beneficial conversion and issuance costs, less any accretion and amortization taken. At December 31, 2004, that amount was approximately $11.0 million.

Series A Convertible Notes

The Company determined the initial carrying value of the Series A Convertible Notes by a two-step allocation process: first to the associated warrants; and, second, to an embedded conversion option.

First, the Company allocated the proceeds from the sale of the Series A Convertible Notes between the Series A Convertible Notes and the Series A Note Warrants based on their relative fair values, which resulted in the recording of a discount on the Series A Convertible Notes. The value of the Series A Convertible Notes was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Series A Convertible Notes were valued using (i) the exercise price of $3.28 as stated in the Series A Purchase Agreement, (ii) the $4.04 stock price as of the Series A Closing Date, (iii) a risk free rate of 2.80%, (iv) a volatility of 94.80%, and (v) an expected term of the Series A Convertible Notes of four years. The risk free rate was equal to the four-year U.S. Treasury rate, as the Series A Convertible Notes mature in four years. The volatility was based on an average of three measurements: the actual volatility in the Company’s stock price over the four years prior to the Series A Closing Date; the actual volatility in the Company’s stock price from November 3, 2001 (the date of the acquisition of the former Analex Corporation) to the Series A Closing date; and the actual volatility in the Company’s stock price from March 4, 2003 (the date the Company’s Common Stock was first listed on the American Stock Exchange) to the Series A Closing date.

Second, after allocating the Series A Convertible Notes proceeds, the Company calculated the embedded conversion price and used it to measure the intrinsic value of the embedded conversion option. This was determined by calculating the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Convertible Notes were convertible. The value allocated to the Series A Convertible Notes (after value was allocated to the Series A Warrants) was then divided by the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Convertible Notes are convertible. The result, $1.66, was then compared to the current fair value of $4.04, the Company’s stock price as of the Series A Closing date. Since the conversion price was less than the current fair value, a beneficial conversion feature exists. The difference between the conversion price and the current fair value was multiplied by the total number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Convertible Notes are convertible. The result was a beneficial conversion of approximately $5.3 million. The amount of the beneficial conversion was recorded as additional paid in capital, resulting in a further discount on the Series A Convertible Notes. The table below details the accounting treatment of the Series A Convertible Notes.

17

Allocation of Series A Convertible Notes Proceeds

The discount on the Series A Convertible Notes created as a result of the allocation of fair value to the Series A Note Warrants will be amortized to interest expense over the four-year period to the maturity of the Series A Convertible Notes. Issuance costs of $470,400 are recorded as deferred financings costs and will be amortized over the four-year period to the maturity of the Convertible Notes.

The Series A Convertible Notes accrue interest at 7% per annum, which is payable quarterly in cash. Therefore, the Company will recognize expense for the interest payable each quarter. Both the amortization of the debt discount from the allocation of fair value to the Series A Note Warrants and the accrued interest will reduce net income over the four-year life of the Series A Convertible Notes.

The annual interest payable on the Series A Convertible Notes amounts to $700,000 and the annual non-cash interest and accretion charges amount to $1.9 million. The total annual charge related to the Series A Convertible Notes, thus, amounts to $2.6 million.

If the holders of the Series A Convertible Notes were to convert the notes into Common Stock, there would be a one-time, non-cash charge to write-off the unamortized discount related to the Series A Convertible Notes. The unamortized discount is comprised of the amount allocated to the fair value of the Series A Note Warrants, the discount on the convertible notes due to beneficial conversion and issuance costs, less any accretion and amortization taken. At December 31, 2004, that amount was approximately $5.6 million.

Stout Repurchase Agreement

On July 18, 2003, the Company also entered into a Securities Repurchase Agreement (together with the First Amendment thereto dated September 30, 2003 and the Second Amendment thereto dated November 4, 2003, the “Stout Repurchase Agreement”) with Company’s former Chairman Jon M. Stout, certain members of Mr. Stout’s immediate family including former Company director Shawna Stout, and certain entities controlled by Mr. Stout and his family (collectively, the “Stout Parties”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase an aggregate of 2,625,451 shares of Common Stock and warrants and options exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 1,209,088 shares of Common Stock from the Stout Parties for aggregate consideration of $9,166,844.21. This transaction and the Series A financing discussed above were consummated simultaneously on December 9, 2003. The closing occurred immediately following the approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Series A financing. Because the consummation of the transactions under each of the Series A financing and the Stout Repurchase Agreement were conditioned upon each other, they constituted a single transaction to be voted upon by the stockholders. The transactions contemplated by the Series A financing and the Stout Repurchase Agreement are collectively referred to herein as the “Pequot Transaction.”

18

The Stout Repurchase Agreement provided for the Stout Non-Competition Agreement between the Company and Jon Stout. The $600,000 consideration to be paid under the Stout Non-Competition Agreement was recognized as a liability as of the Series A Closing date, and will be paid quarterly over the three-year life of the agreement.

Also, included in the Stout Repurchase Agreement was the repurchase of certain warrants and stock options. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants as of the Series A Closing Date using a fair value option pricing model and determined that the amount the Stout Parties are receiving to purchase warrants is less than the fair value as of the Series A Closing date. Therefore, the Company did not incur any additional compensation expense related to the purchase of the warrants. However, as the Company also purchased certain stock options held by the Stout Parties, the Company incurred compensation expense as a result of the purchase of stock options from the Stout Parties of $95,800, which is equal to the amount paid to purchase the stock options.

Impact of the Series A Transaction on Shareholder’s Equity

The following table shows the changes in Shareholder’s Equity as a result of the Series A Transaction.

Accounting Treatment of the Series B Financing

Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement among the Company and General Electric Pension Trust (“GEPT”), New York Life Capital Partners II, L.P. (“NYL”), Pequot Private Equity Fund III, L.P., and Pequot Offshore Private Equity Partners III, L.P., (collectively, “Pequot,” together with GEPT and NYL, collectively, the “Investors”), dated May 28, 2004 (the “Series B Purchase Agreement”), the Company:

The Series B Senior Subordinated Notes and the related Common Stock Warrants sold and issued to the Investors pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement in May 2004 together with the Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Investors in September 2004 are collectively referred to as the “Series B Instruments.” The funds obtained on the First Closing Date were used to pay the cash portion of the consideration for the acquisition of BAI.

19

Subject to certain approval rights by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series B Purchase Agreement also provides that the Company has an option to require the Investors to purchase up to an additional $25 million of Series B Preferred Stock, with additional Series B Common Stock Warrants (the “Company Option”), at any one or more times on or prior to May 27, 2005 for the purpose of paying the cost of acquisition of the stock or assets of one or more companies in each case with an acquisition value of at least $10 million.

Series B Senior Subordinated Notes

The outstanding principal of $12,000,000 on the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes was converted into 3,428,517 shares of Series B Preferred Stock upon stockholders’ approval at the Company’s Annual Stockholders’ Meeting on September 15, 2004 (the “Series B Issue Date”). The per share conversion price of the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes is $3.50 (the “Series B Original Issue Price”).

Upon issuance of the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes, the Company allocated fair value of $720,000 to the Series B Common Stock Warrants based on a preliminary valuation, and allocated fair value of $3,720,000 to a beneficial conversion feature of the Notes. Upon receipt of a final valuation, it was determined that $1,040,400 was the fair value of the Series B Common Stock Warrants resulting in a beneficial conversion allocation of $4,040,400. In addition, the Company incurred $674,900 of issuance cost. The discount created by these charges was fully amortized to interest expense upon the conversion of the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company recognized $5.8 million of amortization of that discount during 2004. The table below details the accounting treatment of the Series B Senior Subordinated Notes from May 28 through September 15, 2004 prior to the conversion to Series B Preferred Stock.

Allocation of Series B Senior Subordinated Notes Proceeds

Series B Preferred Stock

An aggregate of 3,428,571 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were issued to the Investors upon stockholders’ approval of the conversion of the $12 million Series B Senior Subordinated Notes into the Series B Preferred Stock at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on September 15, 2004. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock bears a cumulative annual dividend of 6%, payable quarterly in cash or, if the Company’s available cash for operations does not meet specified levels or such payment would result in a default under the Company’s Credit Facility, in additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, in preference to holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock, out of the

20

Company’s assets available for stockholder distributions, an amount per share equal to the Series B Original Issue Price plus any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon. Certain mergers, acquisitions or asset sales involving the Company are treated as a liquidation event unless the holders of 66 ²/3% of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock voting together as a class elect not to treat such transactions as liquidation events.

The Series B Preferred Stock will be convertible into Common Stock at any time at the election of its holders. The per share conversion price (the “Series B Conversion Price”) of the Series B Preferred Stock is $2.80. If the company draws down any additional Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to a Company Option of up to $25 million prior to May 27, 2005, the conversion price of any additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock will also be $2.80 per share.

The Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into Common Stock if, any time following 18 months after the Series B Issue Date, (i) the average closing price of the Common Stock over the immediately preceding 20 consecutive trading day period exceeds 2.5 times the Series B Original Issue Price of $3.50, or $8.75 (as adjusted for certain dilutive equity issuances and for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events related to the Series B Preferred Stock); or (ii) with respect to any holder’s shares of Series B Preferred Stock, such holder does not accept, within 60 days of notice to such holder, the Company’s offer to purchase the Series B Preferred Stock for at least 2.5 times the Series B Original Issue Price of $3.50. The Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into Common Stock upon the agreement of the holders of 75% of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Stock.

Holders of two-thirds of the Series B Preferred Stock may require the Company to redeem their shares in four equal quarterly installments any time on or after the fourth anniversary of the Series B Issue Date at the Series B Original Issue Price plus accrued but unpaid dividends.

Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with all other classes and series of voting stock of the Company as a single class, on all actions to be taken by the stockholders of the Company. As long as at least 25% of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement remain outstanding, the Company may not take numerous specified actions (including certain changes to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation) without first obtaining the written consent of holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock voting separately as a class. In addition, as long as the Company Option is in effect, holders of 100% of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, shall have the right to veto (i) any Company Acquisition, and (ii) the issuance of any securities ranking senior to or pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock or the Series B Preferred Stock, with respect to voting, dividend, liquidation or redemption rights, including the issuance of subordinated debt.

Series B Common Stock Warrants

The Series B Common Stock Warrants to purchase 857,142 shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the Series B Financing will expire on May 28, 2014. They were not exercisable at the time of issuance. Upon stockholders’ approval at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on September 15, 2004, the Common Stock Warrants became exercisable at the option of the Investors. The exercise price of the Common Stock Warrants is $4.32 per share.

The Company’s contracts with the government are typically cost plus fee, time and materials, or fixed-price contracts. Revenue results from work performed on these contracts by the Company’s employees and from pass-through of costs for material and work performed by subcontractors. Revenue on cost-type contracts is recorded as contract-allowable costs are incurred and fees earned. Revenue for time and materials contracts is recorded on the basis of contract-allowable labor hours worked multiplied by the contract defined billing rates, plus the cost of materials used in performance on the contract. Profits on time and material contracts result from the difference between the cost of services performed and the contract defined billing rates for these services. Revenue on certain fixed-price service contracts is recorded each period based on a monthly amount for services provided. Revenue on other fixed-price contracts is recorded as costs are incurred, using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Profits on fixed-price contracts result from the difference between the incurred costs and the revenue earned. In the normal course of business, the Company may be party to claims and disputes resulting from modifications and change orders and other contract matters. Claims for additional contract compensation are recognized when realization is probable and estimable.

Long-Lived Assets

In assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangibles, the Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. If these estimates or the Company’s related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges not previously recorded for these assets.

Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims related to labor and other matters. The Company is required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these contingencies as well as potential ranges of probable losses and establish reserves accordingly. The amount of reserves required, if any, may change in future periods due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach to a matter such as a change in settlement strategy.

Derivatives

The Company utilized an interest rate swap to manage interest rate exposure. The interest rate swap had been designated as a cash flow hedge, wherein the effective portion of the change in value of the derivative instrument, based on market pricing, was reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and was reclassified into earnings as interest expense in the period when the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in value of the derivative instrument, if any, was recognized in current earnings during the period of change. The interest rate swap expired in December 2004.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Introduction

We view the Company’s liquidity and capital requirements from two important perspectives: operations and financing obligations primarily arisen from the Company’s acquisitions activities.

22

From the operating perspective, the Company is in a stable liquidity position, with relatively minor capital requirements. The Company is a professional services company, with virtually all of its revenue derived from professional services delivered to the United States Government, primarily the Department of Defense, pursuant to contractual arrangements that provide primarily for time-and-material type payment structures. Most of the Company’s employees are located on government facilities. The Company generally does not engage in the development of products, hardware, or software for which there is inherent technical risk. With rare exception, employees engaged in professional services are hired and retained only when contracts have been awarded and are continuing. Employees engaged in indirect functions, such as corporate staff functions, are limited.

Consequently, the risk and variability inherent in the Company’s operating cash flow is moderate. Two components of that moderate operating cash-flow risk arise from (i) the ability of the government, from time-to-time, to expand or reduce the level of service provided under its contracts, and (ii) normal fluctuations in working capital, such as accounts receivable and payable. However, given the nature of the Company’s service offerings, these elements of risk are not inherently highly variable. In addition, the capital requirements of the Company’s service offerings are limited to infrastructure resources, such as company-wide information technology resources, commercially available accounting systems, and furniture and personal computing equipment for employees located on Company premises. Consequently, the Company’s cash flow measured on an EBITDA basis has been growing, with EBITDA increasing from $4.1 million in 2003 to $8.0 million in 2004 and with EBITDA margins increasing from 6.6% of Revenue in 2003 to 8.5% of Revenue in 2004. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate that it will have a need for additional capital to fund its operations over the next twelve months. The government, however, retains the right to terminate its contracts for its convenience at any time. Were this to occur, the Company’s liquidity and operating results would likely be materially adversely affected.

Beginning in December 2003, the Company has engaged in certain financing activities. In the December 2003 Pequot Transaction, the Company bought back the shares from a prior significant shareholder. The Company sold $10 million of Series A Convertible Notes and the $15 million of Series A Preferred Stock to Pequot. Funds remaining after the repurchase of shares from the significant shareholder in December 2003 were then used to fund a portion of the cash cost of acquiring BAI in May 2004. In order to fund the remaining portion of the cash cost of acquiring BAI, the Company increased its bank debt and also drew down $12 million Series B Senior Subordinated Notes from Pequot, General Electric, and New York Life, which were automatically converted into Series B Preferred Stock upon shareholders’ approval at the Company’s Annual Stockholders’ Meeting in September 2004. The Company has, through May 27, 2005, a Company Option to draw down, under the same terms, an additional $25 million of Series B Preferred Stock to fund one or more subsequent acquisitions.

If unconverted, the $10 million Series A Convertible Notes will be due and payable in December 2007. If the $15 million Series A Preferred Stock is not converted into Common Stock by December 2007, it will be redeemable at the option of the holders in four equal quarterly installments starting in September 2008. If the $12 million Series B Preferred Stock is not converted into Common Stock by September 2008, at the election of the holders of 66-2/3% of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, it will be redeemable in four equal quarterly installments.

The Company’s balance sheet has been complicated by these financing instruments because a substantial portion of the face value of the instruments is required, under generally accepted accounting principles, to be allocated to equity accounts, with the resulting discounted carrying value to be accreted back to full face value over the expected life of the financing instruments, with the periodic accretions taken as non-cash charges to income. Consequently, GAAP accounting requires that the Company’s statement of operations be subject to these non-cash charges that produce net losses to the common shareholders, especially since most of these non- cash charges are not deductible for income tax purposes. In addition, GAAP requires that the Company’s balance sheet carries the financing instruments at their sharply discounted values, while the Company’s equity is increased by corresponding amounts, subject to the periodic, non-cash adjustments to both.

23

In assessing whether or not to issue these financing instruments, with their attendant GAAP accounting requirements, the Company considers the purposes for which the funds are to be used and the overall impact upon the Company and value to shareholders, which uses have generally involved acquisitions. The Company generally only issues these financing instruments when the combined effects of the financing and the acquisition are expected to enhance the strategic objectives of the Company on a long-term basis and are anticipated to be accretive on a forward basis to the Company’s shareholders, measured on an “as if converted” basis. The “as if converted” basis assumes that all convertible instruments, options, and warrants are exercised, with any proceeds received assumed applied under the GAAP “Treasury Buyback Method” to notionally repurchase a portion of the Company’s shares outstanding.

The Company’s currently outstanding financing instruments will either mature according to their terms or, at the election of the holders, be converted into Common Stock of the Company, unless subject to forced conversion at the election of the Company. A conversion prior to maturity will likely cause an acceleration of any remaining discount of these instruments from face value as a charge to earnings at the time of conversion, and these accelerated non-cash charges could be substantial.

It is the Company’s long-term expectation that, as the Company grows both organically and, possibly, through accretive acquisitions, the Company’s need for complex convertible financing instruments should diminish and that, either through expiration, redemption or conversion of the current financing instruments, the Company’s financial statements should become less complex. However, there can be no assurance as to whether or when this may occur.

At December 31, 2004, the bank facility allowed a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.5-times or lower, and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio to EBITDA of 1.2-times or greater. The Company was in compliance with both covenants, with a funded debt ratio of 2.1-times and a fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.8-times.

In summary, the variability of the Company’s operational cash flows is not substantial and the need for capital resources is minimal given the nature of the Company’s professional services offerings. If the financing instruments remain unconverted in 2007 and 2008, a cash requirement to fund repayment and redemption of our financial instruments will arise.

Analysis of the Statement of Cash Flows

The Company’s Statement of Cash Flows for 2004 combines the cash flows from on-going operations with the effect of the acquisition of BAI in May 2004.

The working capital at December 31, 2004 decreased by approximately $11.6 million from December 31, 2003, primarily due to cash used for the purchase of BAI in May 2004 in the amount of approximately $12 million.

In the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, the Company recorded a net loss of $9.2 million and EBITDA (as defined below) of $8.0 million, after add-backs for interest of $9.0 million, taxes of $1.2 million, depreciation of $0.3 million and amortization of $1.4 million. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded net income of $2.5 million and EBITDA (as defined below) of $4.1 million, after add-backs for interest of $0.5 million, taxes of $0.3 million, depreciation of $0.1 million and amortization of $0.5 million.

While we expect that borrowing availability under our credit facility, together with cash provided by operations will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs for normal operations for at least the next twelve months, we anticipate that we will need to obtain additional financing through sale of equity or debt securities to fund our future acquisitions.

24

Our ability to obtain additional financing will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions, our operating performance and investor interests. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of any financing unattractive. If additional financing is raised through sale of our Common Stock, it may result in significant dilution to our existing stockholders.

In December 2003, we sold to Pequot $10 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes. The Series A Convertible Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 7%. They are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries. The Convertible Notes will mature on December 9, 2007. The indebtedness incurred with respect to the Series A Convertible Notes is material in relation to our ability to service the debt from our operating cash flow and our ability to repay the debt in full at maturity. There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be available to repay the Series A Convertible Notes or to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with their respective terms. Our ability to repay the Series A Convertible Notes at maturity may also be adversely affected by the right of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to contemporaneously require the Company to redeem their shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

EBITDA consists of earnings before interest expense, interest and other income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA does not represent funds available for the Company’s discretionary use and is not intended to represent cash flow from operations. EBITDA should also not be construed as a substitute for operating income or a better measure of liquidity than cash flow from operating activities, which are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. EBITDA excludes components that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s results of operations and cash flows. EBITDA is considered to be relevant and useful information, which is often reported and widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties. Accordingly, the Company is disclosing this information to permit a more comprehensive analysis of the Company’s operating performance, as an additional meaningful measure of performance and liquidity, and to provide additional information with respect to the Company’s ability to meet future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements.

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities was $2.27 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, compared to $2.32 million for the prior year.

Net cash used in discontinued operating activities was $0.2 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, compared to net cash provided by discontinued operating activities $0.4 million for the prior year.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.1 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, compared to $2.7 million for the prior year. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities resulted from an increase in cash used by discontinued operations as noted in the preceding paragraph.

Net cash used in investing activities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 was $27.6 million. Net cash used in investing activities in this period was primarily related to the purchase of BAI for $27.0 million. In addition, fixed asset purchases of $0.5 million were made. Net cashed used in investing in 2003 was $1.0 million, $0.4 million was for fixed asset purchases, while $0.6 million was for issuance costs of the Series A financing.

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2004 amounted to $12.4 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities in 2003 of $12.2 million. Financing activities for 2004 are primarily attributable to the purchase of BAI. In 2004 the Company had net bank borrowings of $1.4 million compared to net payments of bank debt of $3.5 million in 2003. For 2004, the Company generated a net decrease in cash and equivalents of $13.1 million compared to a net increase of $13.9 million in 2003.

25

Interest expense of $9.0 million consists of cash and non-cash expense. Cash interest expense was $1.4 million and non-cash interest expense that is generated by amortization of the Convertible Debt discount was $7.6 million, representing $1.8 million for Series A Preferred Stock and $5.8 million for Series B Preferred Stock.

Analex acquired BAI on May 28, 2004. Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated May 6, 2004 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), by and among Analex, BAI, and certain former stockholders of BAI (the “BAI Sellers”), Analex acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of BAI for (i) $27.7 million in cash, and (ii) 1,832,460 unregistered shares of Analex Common Stock, $0.02 par value per share. Analex financed the cash portion of the consideration for the acquisition through its cash on hand, senior debt from Bank of America, N.A. and new debt in the initial amount of $12 million (Series B Senior Subordinated Notes) provided by GEPT, NYL and Pequot pursuant to a Purchase Agreement by and among the Company and the Investors, dated May 28, 2004. The Series B Senior Subordinated Notes were converted to Series B Preferred Stock upon stockholders’ approval at the Company’s Annual Stockholder’s Meeting on May 15, 2004.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed approximated their book value of $8,035,600 and $3,298,900, respectively. The Company incurred financial, legal and accounting costs associated with the BAI purchase of approximately $1,466,600.

The Company has a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (“the Credit Facility”). On May 28, 2004, in connection with the acquisition of BAI, the Credit Facility was amended and restated to provide a $20,000,000 revolving credit facility, and the remaining outstanding balance on the Company’s term loan of $1,750,000 was consolidated into the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility has a maturity date of May 31, 2007. An uncommitted annual guidance facility not to exceed an additional $20,000,000 is available to fund future acquisitions upon application by the Company and approval by Bank of America. Although the guidance facility matured on December 31, 2004, the Company expects to renew the facility upon closing future acquisitions. On behalf of the Company, Bank of America may issue Letters of Credit secured by the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2004, the Company has one Letter of Credit outstanding in the amount of $100,000. The interest rate on the Credit Facility is set at the LIBOR plus an applicable margin as specified in a pricing grid. As of December 31, 2004, the Credit Facility outstanding balance was $6,590,100. The interest rate on December 31, 2004 was 4.92%.

The Credit Facility contains financial covenants setting forth maximum ratios for total funded debt to EBITDA and minimum ratios for fixed charge coverage. The Company must maintain a Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio of no greater than 3.5 to 1.0. In addition, the Company must maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of no less than 1.2 to 1.0. As of December 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with these covenants. The Credit Facility also restricts the Company’s ability to dispose of properties other than ABS, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends (except to holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock) or other distributions, create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, make investments, loans or advances, engage in mergers or consolidations, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Credit Facility is secured by the accounts receivable and other assets of the Company.

Our ability to comply with the financial covenants in our credit agreement will be affected by our financial performance, as well as events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. The breach of any of the covenants in our credit agreements could result in a default, which would permit Bank of America to declare all amounts borrowed thereunder, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to be due and payable. If we are unable to repay our indebtedness, Bank of America could proceed against our accounts receivable and other assets which are the collateral securing the indebtedness.

On November 2, 2001, the Company issued promissory notes to certain Analex sellers totaling $772,600 with a five-year term, bearing interest at 6%. As of December 31, 2004 the outstanding balance of the promissory notes was $337,000. The Company also entered into non-competition agreements with these sellers for total payments of $540,000 over a three-year period. These non-competition agreements have an outstanding balance

26

of $180,000 as of December 31, 2004. In addition, the Company entered into non-competition agreements with former employees totaling $352,000, on a discounted basis, payable over various periods with a current balance of December 31, 2004 of $93,000.

On May 29, 2002, Analex announced that it had been awarded a $164 million Expendable Launch Vehicle Integrated Support (“ELVIS”) prime contract by NASA. In conjunction with this contract award, the Company issued promissory notes to certain Analex sellers totaling $1,000,000 with a three-year term, bearing interest at prime plus 1%. At December 31, 2004, the outstanding balance on these notes was $250,000.

With its purchase of Analex, the Company assumed a note payable to the Department of Justice (“DOJ”). The agreement provides for quarterly payments of $80,000 consisting of principal and interest at 7% through February 2006, with a final payment due in May 2006. As of December 31, 2003, the outstanding balance on the DOJ note payable was $538,100. As part of the Analex acquisition, the Company assumed a liability to the Department of Justice. This liability arose as a settlement between the former Analex Corporation and the Department of Justice in 1994 due to false claims made by the former Analex Corporation to the U.S. government during the years 1982 through 1986. The terms of the Pequot Transaction required using proceeds of the transaction to repay the DOJ note in full. An audit was requested by the government prior to acceptance of the note repayment. The government completed their audit in March 2004 and the repayment was accepted.

Contractual Obligations

Preferred Stock

Holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock may require the Company to redeem their Series A Preferred Stock together with accrued but unpaid dividends in four equal quarterly installments any time on or after September 15, 2008, which is also the Series B Redemption Date. Holders of two-thirds of the Series B Preferred Stock may also require the Company to redeem their Series B Preferred Stock together with accrued but unpaid dividends in four equal quarterly installments any time on or after September 15, 2008, the Series B Redemption Date. However, since the Company has up to sixty (60) days from the Series B Redemption Date to make the first quarterly installment, the Company’s obligation to pay for the redemption price of both the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock is not triggered until at the earliest November 15, 2008. The table below summarizes this possible future contractual obligation.

Debt, leases and other non-cancelable obligations

The Company has contractual obligations to pay long-term debt, leases and other non-cancelable obligations. The following table aggregates the amounts of these obligations as of December 31, 2004:

27

Payments for long-term debt do not include interest payments. Lease commitments could require higher payments than shown in the table due to escalation provisions that are tied to various measures of inflation. The lease commitments reflect only existing commitments and do not include future requirements necessary to replace existing leases. In addition to the contractual obligations included above, the Company also has routine purchase order commitments for materials and supplies that are entered into in the normal course of business and are not in excess of current requirements. Pursuant to the November 2, 2001 acquisition of Analex, the Company issued 3,572,143 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the shareholders representing all of the outstanding equity of Analex (the “Sellers”). Of the 3,572,143 shares, 857,143 shares are subject to a provision by which the Company guarantees for a five-year period to reimburse the Sellers the difference between the price at which they sell such shares and a guaranteed sales price ranging from $1.60 to $2.20 per share (“Guaranteed Shares”), if such shares are sold within such period and if certain other conditions are satisfied. As of December 31, 2004, the maximum that the Company would be required to pay under the terms of the guarantee was $1,628,600. This amount is calculated by multiplying the number of shares subject to the guarantee by their associated guaranteed purchase price, assuming the Company’s Common Stock has no fair market value. As of December 31, 2004, there were 214,286 shares with an associated purchase price guarantee of $1.60 per share, 214,286 shares with an associated guaranteed purchase price of $1.80 per share, and 214,286 shares with an associated guaranteed purchase price of $2.00 per share, and 214,286 shares with an associated guaranteed purchase price of $2.20 per share. As the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock was in excess of the guaranteed share prices as of December 31, 2004, no amounts were accrued under the guarantee.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123(R)—Share-Based Payment, which replaces SFAS No. 123—Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25—Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS No. 123(R)- requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS No. 123(R) requires liability awards to be re-measured each reporting period and compensation costs to be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. SFAS No. 123(R) is effective as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The Company plans to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) prospectively during the third quarter of 2005, and is currently evaluating the effect that adoption of this statement will have on its financial position and results of operations.

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”(“SFAS No. 143”). SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.

SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material impact, either positive or negative, on future results of operations or financial condition. In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. EITF Issue No. 00-21 provides guidance on how to account for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The provisions of EITF Issue No. 00-21 will apply to revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company believes that the adoption of EITF Issue No. 00-21 will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of

28

certain guarantees, the guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. FIN 45’s provisions for initial recognition and measurement are required to be applied on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure provisions of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods that end after December 15, 2002. As the Company has not entered into or modified any guarantees subsequent to December 31, 2002, the implementation of FIN 45 did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The Company has updated its disclosures to comply with the requirements in FIN 45.

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150 (“SFAS 150”), “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). SFAS 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. SFAS 150 is not expected to have a significant impact to the Company’s financial statements.

Forward-looking Statements

Certain matters contained in this discussion and analysis concerning our operations, cash flows, financial position, economic performance, and financial condition, including in particular, the likelihood of our success in growing our business through acquisitions or otherwise, the realization of sales from backlog, and the sufficiency of capital to meet our working capital needs, include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “would” or similar words. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. However, there are events in the future that we may not be able to predict accurately or control. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, and as a result of many factors, including but not limited to the following:

Readers of this report should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-K. We assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

Item 7A.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Market Risks and Hedging Activities

The Company’s outstanding bank debt bears interest at variable interest rates tied to LIBOR. The use of variable-rate debt to finance operations and capital improvements exposes the Company to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. The Company uses an interest rate swap to reduce the interest rate exposure on these variable rate obligations. The Company does not hold any derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company’s $3.5 million term loan facility from Bank of America, which carried interest comprised of two components: floating-rate LIBOR plus a credit performance margin, was paid in full on May 28, 2004. The Company had entered into an interest-rate swap agreement with Bank of America whereby its obligation to pay floating-rate LIBOR was swapped into a fixed rate obligation at 4.25% beginning in January 2002. The swap agreement expired on December 1, 2004.

Interest rate hedges that are designated as cash flow hedges hedge the future cash outflows on debt. Interest rate swaps that convert variable payments to fixed payments, interest rate caps, floors, collars and forwards are cash flow hedges. The unrealized gains/losses in the fair value of these hedges are reported on the balance sheet and included in other long-term liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to either accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) or in earnings depending on the hedging relationship. If the hedging transaction is a cash flow hedge, then the offsetting gains/losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss). Over time, the unrealized gains/losses held in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) will be recognized in earnings consistent with when the hedged items are recognized in earnings.

Under the interest rate swap, the Company paid the bank at a fixed rate and received variable interest at a rate approximating the variable rate of the Company’s debt, thereby creating the equivalent of a fixed rate obligation. The following table summarizes the original financial terms of the Company’s interest rate swap:

The notional value of the interest rate swap declined as the amount of the Term Loan was paid down. At December 31, 2004, the notional value of the swap was $0. Increases in prevailing interest rates could increase the Company’s interest payment obligations relating to variable rate debt. For example, a 100 basis points increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by $65,900, based on debt levels at December 31, 2004.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Shareholders

Analex Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Analex Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004. 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 in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards 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 consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Analex Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
