Note 2 – Recently Issued Accounting Standards:
     In October 2009, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” The consensus in Update No. 2009-13 supersedes certain guidance in Topic 605 (formerly EITF Issue No. 00-21, Multiple-Element Arrangements) and requires an entity to allocate arrangement consideration at the inception of an arrangement to all of its deliverables based on their relative selling prices. The consensus eliminates the use of the residual method of allocation and requires the use of the relative-selling-price method in all circumstances in which an entity recognizes revenue for an arrangement with multiple deliverables subject to ASC 605-25. The Company is required to adopt Update No. 2009-13 as of July 1, 2010 and is in the process of determining the impact that the adoption of Update No. 2009-13 will have on its future results of operations and financial position.
     In July 2009, the Company adopted “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“Codification” or “ASC”) is the sole source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB for nongovernment entities. Rules and interpretive releases issued by the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     The Company’s primary source of external financing is the Company’s credit agreement and its amendments (“the Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America (“BofA”). On July 31, 2009, the Company concluded an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “July 31, 2009 Credit Agreement Amendment”), which reduced the total permanent loan commitment under the revolving line of credit from $35 million to $25 million, established interest and certain fee margins and covenant targets and modified certain other provisions of the Credit Agreement through November 21, 2011, the original termination date of the Credit Agreement. Interest rates depend on which borrowing option the Company exercises under the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured in the U.S. by substantially all domestic assets and in Europe by a pledge of subsidiary stock and assets. The Company was in compliance with covenant targets at March 31, 2010. However, on May 12, 2010, the Company entered into Waiver and Amendment No. 6 to the Credit Agreement with Bank of America to provide a waiver of the Company’s failure to meet the currency adjusted Net Sales covenant for the consecutive three month period ending April 30, 2010 (See Note 16).
     The Company will incur cash costs of approximately $1,224 associated with the July 31, 2009 amendment. Certain of these costs, together with certain legacy deferred financing costs, are required to be charged to expense, and the Company recorded a charge of approximately $1,183 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2010. The balance of these costs, together with the balance of the legacy deferred financing costs, totaling approximately $1,279, will be amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Agreement.
     The July 31, 2009 Credit Agreement Amendment required that the net proceeds related to the settlement of the patent infringement lawsuit (see Note 13 – Legal Proceedings) be used to repay a portion of the Company’s long-term obligation. A payment of approximately $7,700 was made on October 15, 2009. As a result, at March 31, 2010, the balance of the term loan was $468.
     The Company maintains relationships with both foreign and domestic banks, which on a combined basis have extended short and long-term credit facilities to the Company totaling $31,886 including $25,000 under the Credit Agreement revolving credit facility, $468 outstanding under the Credit Agreement term loan and $6,418 under facilities provided by other banks. The amount available for use under the Credit Agreement is limited to $25,000 minus $7,900 by the terms of the July 31, 2009 Credit Agreement Amendment. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had $19,814 outstanding (including Letters of Credit). The amount available under these credit facilities at March 31, 2010 was $3,872.

Note 4 — Net income (loss) per share:
     Basic net income (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution by securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. The weighted average shares outstanding used to compute diluted net income (loss) per share includes potentially dilutive shares of 36,000 and 47,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010. Outstanding options to purchase 1,010,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010, are not included in the above calculation to compute diluted net income per share, as their exercise prices exceeded market value.
     Due to the losses incurred during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009, the denominator in the diluted earnings per share calculation does not include the effects of options as it would result in a less dilutive computation. As a result, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009, outstanding options to purchase 1,437,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are not included in the calculation to compute diluted net income per share.
Note 5 — Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss):
     Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) is comprised of various items, which affect equity that result from recognized transactions and other economic events other than transactions with owners in their capacity as owners.

Note 9 — Customers:
     During the three months ended March 31, 2010, no customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net sales. During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, one customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net sales.

Note 10 — Warranty Costs:
     The Company’s standard contractual warranty provisions are to repair or replace, at the Company’s option, product that is proven to be defective. The Company estimates its warranty costs as a percentage of revenues on a product by product basis, based on actual historical experience. Hence, the Company accrues estimated warranty costs reported in other accounts payable and accrued liabilities, at the time of sale. In addition, should the Company become aware of a specific potential warranty claim, a specific charge is recorded and accounted for separately from the percentage of revenue discussed above.

Note 12 — Restructuring:
     October FY 2009 Plan:
     On October 29, 2008, the Company committed to the principal features of a plan to restructure and achieve operational efficiencies in its operations in Germany.

These plans included the consolidation of production facilities in Germany, as well as employment reductions in Germany, Sweden, Italy and the U.S. The actions were taken in response to sustained weak market conditions. Actions under the plan commenced during the Company’s third quarter of Fiscal 2009; and the Company substantially completed the actions by June 30, 2009. Nearly all the costs associated with the plans are cash costs, payment of which will continue through Fiscal 2010.

Note 13 — Legal Proceedings:
     Baldwin is involved in various legal proceedings from time to time, including actions with respect to commercial, intellectual property and employment matters. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses against the claims currently asserted against it and intends to defend them vigorously. However, the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain, and the Company cannot be sure that it will prevail in any of the cases currently in litigation. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of any such cases will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows; however, there can be no assurances that an adverse determination would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
     On November 14, 2002, the Dusseldorf Higher Regional Court (“DHRC”) announced its judgment in favor of Baldwin in a patent infringement dispute against its competitor, technotrans

12


Table of Contents

AG (“Technotrans”). Technotrans filed a request to appeal the DHRC ruling with the German Federal Supreme Court. Technotrans also filed to revoke the Company’s patent with the Federal Patent Court in Munich, Germany. On July 21, 2004, the German Federal Patent Court upheld the validity of Baldwin’s patent. Technotrans appealed that judgment to the German Federal Supreme Court. On April 22, 2009 the German Federal Supreme Court rendered a final decision, upholding Baldwin’s patent.
     On May 18, 2005, Baldwin Germany GmbH of Augsburg, Germany, a subsidiary of the Company, filed suit in the Regional Court of Dusseldorf, Germany against Technotrans, claiming damages of 32,672,592 Euro (approximately $46,000,000 at the prevailing exchange rate) as a result of the patent infringement described above. The Dusseldorf Court suspended proceedings in the damages claim until a decision was reached by the German Federal Supreme Court on the appeal of the DHRC decision.
     On September 24, 2009 the Company and Technotrans agreed to an out-of-court settlement which effectively terminated all of the above proceedings. Under the agreement, Technotrans paid on October 12, 2009 Euro 6.5 million (approximately $9.6 million) in compensation to Baldwin and Baldwin has declared the proceedings before the Dusseldorf district court settled.
Note 14 — Income Taxes:
     The Company’s effective tax rate is impacted by (i) foreign income tax at rates different than the U.S. statutory rate, (ii) no tax benefit recognized for losses incurred in certain countries as realization of such benefits is not more likely than not, and (iii) impact of foreign and domestic permanent items.
Note 15 — Fair Value Measurements:
     ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs consist of market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own market assumptions. These inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
    Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
 
    Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or all other inputs that are observable
 
    Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data which require the Company to develop its own assumptions
     If the inputs used to measure the fair value of a financial instrument fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the financial instrument is categorized based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
     Whenever possible, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value. In the absence of quoted market prices, the Company uses independent sources and data to determine fair value.

13


Table of Contents

At March 31, 2010, the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, consistent with the fair value hierarchy provision and valued as Level 1 are comprised of Marketable Securities. At March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any assets or liabilities recorded at fair values on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
     There has been no change in the Company’s valuation technique during the quarter ended March 31, 2010.
Note 16 — Subsequent Event:
     The Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into Waiver and Amendment No. 6 to Credit Agreement (the “Waiver and Amendment”) with Bank of America, N.A., as a Lender and as Administrative Agent, and certain other Lenders, effective as of May 12, 2010. The Waiver and Amendment provides for a waiver by the Lenders of the Company’s failure to meet the Currency Adjusted Net Sales covenant for the consecutive three-month period ending April 30, 2010 and amends the Credit Agreement to change the date for delivery of the Company’s financial projections for the Fiscal Year commencing July 1, 2010, all as further set forth in the Amendment. A copy of the Waiver and Amendment is attached to this Report as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 2:   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (IN THOUSANDS)
     The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain factors, which have affected the consolidated financial statements of Baldwin.
Forward-looking Statements
     Except for the historical information contained herein, certain statements contained herein are based on current expectations. Similarly, the press releases issued by the Company and other public statements made by the Company from time to time may contain language that is forward-looking. These forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as “forecast,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “should,” “plan,” “estimate,” and “potential,” among others. Such statements are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The Company cautions investors that any such forward-looking statements made by the Company are not guarantees of future performance, and that actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to the following: (i) the ability of the Company to comply with requirements of credit agreements; the availability of funding under said agreements; and the ability of the Company to maintain adequate liquidity in declining and challenging economic conditions impacting the Company as well as customers, (ii) general economic conditions, either in the U.S. or foreign countries, (iii) the ability of the Company to obtain, maintain and defend challenges against valid patent protection on certain technology, primarily as it relates to the Company’s cleaning systems and other products, (iv) material changes in foreign currency exchange rates versus the U.S. Dollar, (v) changes in the Company’s mix of products and services comprising revenues, (vi) a decline in the rate of growth of the installed base of printing press units and the timing of new press orders, (vii) the ultimate realization of certain trade receivables and the status of ongoing business levels with the Company’s large OEM customers, and (viii) competitive market influences. Additional factors are set forth in Item 1A

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
     For further information regarding the Company’s critical accounting policies, please refer to the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

Overview
     Baldwin Technology Company, Inc. is a leading global supplier of print automation equipment and related parts and consumables for the printing and publishing industries. Baldwin offers its customers a broad range of market-leading technologies, products and systems that enhance the quality of printed products and improve the economic and environmental efficiency of printing presses. Headquartered in Shelton, CT, the Company has sales and service centers and product development and production facilities in the Americas, Asia and Europe. Baldwin’s technology and products include cleaning systems and related consumables, fluid management and ink control systems, web press protection systems and drying systems.
     The Company manages its business as one reportable business segment built around its core competency in process automation and related consumables.
     The market for printing equipment continues to face significant challenges. The Company’s largest customers (major OEM press manufacturers) continue to report weakness in orders and sales, particularly for commercial presses. These events have translated into a lower level of business activity for the Company and have been reflected in lower order intake and reduced shipment levels of the Company’s equipment. As a result of the slowing global economy, the Company has implemented cost reduction and restructuring programs designed to mitigate the impact of the continuing weak market for printing equipment.
Highlights for Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2010
    Revenues increased 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and declined 17% for the nine months ended March 31, 2010, versus the year ago comparable periods. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010, currency exchange rate fluctuations favorably impacted revenues by 6% and 3%, respectively.
 
    Backlog of $30,244 at March 31, 2010, decreased 24% compared to June 30, 2009.
 
    For the three and nine month periods, order intake was up 19% and down 19%, respectively, versus the comparable year ago periods.
 
    In July 2009, the Company successfully concluded an amendment to its Credit Agreement with its lenders covering the period through November 21, 2011.
 
    The Company agreed to an out of court settlement related to a patent infringement case and recorded a gain of $9,266 in the quarter ended September 30, 2009. Cash proceeds of $9,560 were received in October 2009, and $7,700 of the proceeds was used to repay a portion of the Company’s long term debt obligation.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2009
Consolidated Results
Net Sales
     Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010, increased by $3,411, or 9%, to $39,498 from $36,087 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Currency rate changes attributable to the Company’s overseas operations increased recorded net sales by $2,266 in the current period.
     Net sales in Europe increased $2,770, including $1,592 of favorable effects from exchange rate fluctuations. The increase reflects higher sales of cleaning, spray dampening, water, web controls and parts partially offset by lower service revenue.
     In Asia, net sales including $674 of favorable effects from exchange rate fluctuations increased $1,372. The increase reflects higher shipments of cleaning and spray dampening equipment to the newspaper markets, particularly in Japan.
     Net sales in the Americas decreased $731, primarily reflecting lower demand in the commercial market for cleaning systems.
Gross Profit
     Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $11,734 (29.7% of net sales) compared to $6,021 (16.7% of net sales) for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $5,713.
     During the quarter ended March 31, 2009 as a result of the deteriorating macro-economic environment, a decision to transfer equipment manufacturing from the U.S. to Germany, a general restructuring of the U.S. operations and the inability of the U.S. operation to reach target goals for inventory utilization, the Company recorded a $4,250 write down of inventory in the U.S. Currency rate fluctuations increased gross profit by $804 in the current period.
     Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased as a result of the effect of the higher volume noted above on overhead absorption, lower material and technical service costs, and the absence of the prior year inventory write down.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
     Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) was $7,632 (19% of net sales) for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $8,570 (24% of net sales) for the same period in the prior fiscal year, a decrease of $938 or 11%. Currency rate fluctuations increased these expenses by $420 in the current period. This decrease primarily reflects reduced bad debt expense (the FY 2009 quarter ended March 31, 2009 included an accounts receivable write off of $465), reduced expenses with subcontractors and other outside service providers, lower insurance related accruals, lower trade show and advertising expenses partially offset by higher commissions.
Engineering and Development Expenses
     Engineering and development expenses decreased by $127 over the three months ended March 31, 2009. Currency rate fluctuations increased these expenses by $210 in the current period. This decrease primarily as a result of lower salary and benefits expenses associated with the lower headcount. As a percentage of net sales, engineering and development

expenses, as reported, decreased to approximately 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to 10% the three months ended March 31, 2009.
Restructuring (Fiscal Year 2009)
     In response to sustained weak market conditions, the Company recorded $4,066 of restructuring costs during the three months ended March 31, 2009, versus $0 in the comparable current year period. The plan primarily included consolidation of production facilities and employment reductions in Germany.
Impairment (Fiscal Year 2009)
     As a result of the deteriorating macro-economic environment, the continued market volatility and the Company’s decreased market capitalization, during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company assessed the recoverability of its goodwill carrying value as required. A two-step process was used to test goodwill impairment. The first step was to determine if there was an indication of impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value including goodwill. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the estimated fair value. Upon indication of impairment, a second step was performed to determine the amount of the impairment by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with its carrying value.
     To estimate the fair value of its reporting units for step one, the Company utilizes a combination of income and market approaches. The income approach applies a discounted cash flow methodology to the Company’s future period projections and a market approach compares the Company’s multiples of revenues and earnings with those of comparable companies.
     Based on the result of the impact of the deteriorating economic and market conditions that had led to a reduced demand for the Company’s products supplied by its Japan reporting unit, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $5,658 related to its Japanese reporting unit during the quarter ended March 31, 2009.
Interest and Other
     Interest expense, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $426 as compared to $428 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The decrease reflects lower debt levels and interest rates.
     Other income (expense), net, amounted to expense of $69 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to expense of $311 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Other income (expense), net, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, primarily reflects net foreign currency transaction losses.
Income Taxes
     The Company recorded an income tax expense $72 (effective rate of 35%) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to a tax benefit of $3,094 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The tax benefit in Fiscal 2009 reflected the underlying third quarter loss excluding the impairment of goodwill which is not tax deductible. The 2009 effective tax rate of 19% differs from the statutory rate primarily as a result of the non deductibility of the impairment charge coupled with no benefit recognized for losses incurred in certain jurisdictions, as the realization of such benefits was not more likely than not.
Net Income (Loss)
     The Company’s net income amounted to $133 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to a net loss of $13,447 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Net income per share amounted to $0.01 basic and diluted for the three months ended March 31,

2010, compared to net loss per share of $0.88 basic and diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2009.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2010 vs. Nine Months Ended March 31, 2009
Consolidated Results
Net Sales
     Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 decreased $23,860, or 17%, to $114,423 from $138,283 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. Currency rate fluctuations attributable to the Company’s overseas operations increased net sales by $4,664 for the current period.
     Net sales reflect decreased sales in Europe of $10,575, including $2,120 of favorable effects from exchange rate fluctuations. The decrease is attributable to reduced demand for the Company’s products as a result of the global economic contraction and lack of available financing sources for equipment purchases. OEM press manufacturers in Germany experienced reduced orders and sales, and printers and publishers deferred purchases until final demand and liquidity return to the market.
     In Asia, net sales decreased $6,760, including $2,544 of favorable effects from exchange rate fluctuations. The decrease reflects the impact of the slowing Asian economies in the commercial and newspaper markets for the Company’s cleaning equipment.
     Net sales in the Americas decreased $6,525, primarily reflecting lower demand in the U.S. market for cleaning systems.
Gross Profit
     Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 was $33,812 (29.6% of net sales) compared to $37,729 (27.3% of net sales) for the nine months ended March 31, 2009, a decrease of $3,917.
     During the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2009, as a result of the deteriorating macro-economic environment, a decision to transfer equipment manufacturing from the U.S. to Germany, a general restructuring of the U.S. operations and the inability of the U.S. operation to reach target goals for inventory utilization the Company recorded a $4,250 write off of inventory in the U.S. Currency rate fluctuations increased gross profit by $1,474 in the current period.
     Gross profit as a percentage of net sales, decreased after giving effect to the inventory write off, (29.6% vs. 30.4%) as a result of continued pricing pressures from OEM and end users, unfavorable overhead absorption related to the reduced volumes and higher material costs. Gross margins include benefits associated with the announced restructuring and cost saving initiatives.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
     Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) amounted to $24,639 (21.5% of net sales) for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $27,918 (20.2% of net sales) for the same period in the prior fiscal year, a decrease of $3,279 or 12%. Currency rate fluctuations increased SG&A $818 during the nine month period. Selling expenses decreased $1,730 while general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $1,549. These decreases primarily reflect the benefits from restructuring and other cost savings resulting in lower salary and fringe benefit expenses, lower subcontractor, consultant, travel, insurance, rent and other SG&A costs.

Table of Contents

These reductions were partially offset by approximately $900 of costs related to a special investigation into violation of the Company’s internal control procedures (See Item 4).
Engineering and Development Expenses
     Engineering and development expenses amounted to $9,976 (8.7% of net sales) for the nine months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $12,078 (8.7% of net sales) for the same period in the prior fiscal year, a decrease of $2,102 or 17%. Currency rate fluctuations increased expenses $469 for the current period. The decrease relates primarily to lower salaries, benefits and other employee related costs associated with lower headcount.
Restructuring (Fiscal Year 2009)
     The Company recorded $0 restructuring costs during the nine months ended March 31, 2010, versus $4,747 in the comparable prior year period. The restructuring plan, in response to continued weak market conditions, was designed to achieve operational efficiencies in Germany and consisted primarily of employee terminations and the consolidation of production facilities in Germany.
Impairment (Fiscal Year 2009)
     As a result of the deteriorating macro-economic environment, the continued market volatility and the Company’s decreased market capitalization, during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company assessed the recoverability of its goodwill carrying value as required. A two step process was used to test goodwill impairment. The first step was to determine if there was an indication of impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value including goodwill. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the estimated fair value. Upon indication of impairment, a second step was performed to determine the amount of the impairment by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with its carrying value.
     To estimate the fair value of its reporting units for step one, the Company utilizes a combination of income and market approaches. The income approach applies a discounted cash flow methodology to the Company’s future period projections and a market approach compares the Company’s multiples of revenues and earnings with those of comparable companies.
     Based on the result of the impact of the deteriorating economic and market conditions that had led to a reduced demand for the Company’s products supplied by its Japan reporting unit, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $5,658 related to its Japanese reporting unit during the quarter ended March 31, 2009.
Legal Settlement
     During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a net gain on the settlement of a patent infringement lawsuit of $9,266.
Interest and Other
     Interest expense, net, for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 was $2,626 compared to $1,660 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company concluded an amendment to its Credit Agreement. Certain costs associated with the amendment, together with legacy deferred financing costs totaling approximately $1,183, were charged to expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2009. The increase was offset by $217 as a result of lower average debt and lower interest rates in the current period versus the period ended March 31, 2009.
     Other (income) expense, net was an expense of $271 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 compared to income of $938 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. These amounts

are primarily comprised of net foreign exchange gains in fiscal year 2009 and losses in fiscal year 2010.
Income Taxes
     The Company recorded an income tax provision of $1,951 or 35% for the nine months March 31, 2010 compared to an income tax benefit of $1,620 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. The 2009 tax benefit primarily reflected the underlying year-to-date loss excluding the impairment of goodwill which is not tax deductible. The 2009 effective tax rate of 12% differs from the statutory rate primarily as a result of the non-deductibility of the impairment charge coupled with no benefit recognized for losses incurred in certain jurisdictions, as the realization of such benefits was not more likely than not.
     The Company continues to assess the need for its deferred tax asset valuation allowance in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Any adjustments to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, either positive or negative, would be recorded in the statement of operations for the period that the adjustment was determined to be required.
Net Income (Loss)
     The Company’s net income was $3,615 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010, compared to a loss of $11,774 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. Net income per share amounted to $0.23 basic and diluted for the nine months ended March 31, 2010, compared to net loss per share of $0.77 basic and diluted for the nine months ended March 31, 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources at March 31, 2010
     Cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, reflected in the nine months ended March 31 in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, are summarized as follows (in thousands):
                 
Cash provided by (used for):   2010     2009  
Operating activities
  $ 8,905     $ 2,764  
Investing activities
    (463 )     (1,721 )
Financing activities
    (10,690 )     4,964  
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash
    204       (592 )
 
           
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents
  $ (2,044 )   $ 5,415  
 
           
     Cash provided by operating activities increased $6,141 during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 versus the prior year period. The increase in cash provided reflects (i) receipt of the proceeds from the legal settlement with a German competitor (ii) lower compensation payments associated with management incentives and lower utilization of vacation accruals and (iii) timing of payment of accounts and notes payable. Partially offsetting these increases were lower collections on accounts/notes receivable and customer deposits.
     The amount utilized for investing includes additions to property, plant and equipment and patents and trademarks for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 of $463 and $1,721 respectively.
     During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company agreed to an out-of-court settlement agreement with a German competitor related to a long-standing patent infringement case. As a result, the Company received settlement funds of euro 6.5 million ($9.6 million) in October 2009. Cash used by financing activities of $10,690 for the period ended March 31,

20


Table of Contents

2010 reflects the use of the net cash proceeds from the legal settlement of approximately $7,700 to repay the term loan in accordance with the provisions of the July 31, 2009 Credit Agreement amendment. In addition, cash used for financing activities reflects the scheduled term loan payments of approximately $2,483 and payment of debt financing costs of $752. These payments were partially offset by borrowings under the revolving Credit Agreement of $726. Cash provided by financing activities for the period ended March 31, 2009 reflected net borrowings in excess of debt repayments.
     On July 31, 2009, the Company concluded an amendment to its Credit Agreement with Bank of America. The amendment modified the Credit Agreement as follows: (i) all borrowings bear interest at LIBOR plus 4.50%, or in the case of loans denominated in U.S. dollars, at the Company’s option, at the prime rate plus 3.00%, (ii) reduced the amount of the revolving credit commitment from $35,000 to $25,000, provided that the aggregate of all revolving loans outstanding plus $7,900 does not exceed $25,000 and (iii) increased the collateral as security for the agreement. The term of the permanent facility remained at five years under the July 31, 2009 amendment, maturing on November 21, 2011. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured in the U.S. by substantially all of the Company’s domestic assets (approximately $20,000) and in Europe by a pledge of the Company’s European assets and the stock of the Company’s European subsidiaries and the stock of certain Asian subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement requires the Company to satisfy minimum EBITDA, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Total Funded Debt Ratio, Minimum Currency Adjusted Net Sales, Capital Expenditures and Minimum Liquidity tests. The Company was in compliance with covenant targets at March 31, 2010. However, on May 12, 2010, the Company entered into Waiver and Amendment No. 6 to the Credit Agreement with Bank of America to provide a waiver of the Company’s failure to meet the currency adjusted Net Sales covenant for the consecutive three month period ending April 30, 2010.
     The Company will incur cash costs of approximately $1,224 associated with the July 31, 2009 amendment ($405 in fiscal year 2009). Certain of these costs, together with certain legacy deferred financing costs, are required to be charged to expense, and the Company recorded a charge of approximately $1,183 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2010. The balance of these costs, together with the remaining legacy deferred financing costs, aggregating approximately $1,279, will be amortized over the remaining term of the amended agreement.
     The Company maintains relationships with both foreign and domestic banks, which on a combined basis have extended short and long-term credit facilities to the Company totaling $31,886 including $25,000 under the Credit Agreement revolving credit facility, $468 outstanding under the Credit Agreement term loan and $6,418 under facilities provided by other banks. The amount available for use under the Credit Agreement is limited to $25,000 minus $7,900 by the terms of the July 31, 2009 Credit Agreement Amendment. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had borrowings of $19,814 outstanding (including Letters of Credit). The amount available under these credit facilities at March 31, 2010 was $3,872.
     The Company believes that its cash flows from operations, together with the available bank lines of credit are sufficient to finance its working capital and other capital requirements through the term of the Credit Agreement.
     At March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, the Company did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance entities, special purpose entities or variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, the Company is not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risks that could arise if the Company had engaged in such relationships.

ITEM 3:   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk:
     A discussion of market risk exposures is included in Part II Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. There have been no material changes during the nine months ended March 31, 2010.
ITEM 4:   Controls and Procedures:
     Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
     The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
     Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
     Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:
     As previously disclosed on September 28, 2009 in management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting set forth in Item 9A of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, Company management had identified, as of June 30, 2009, material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and, as a result, had concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2009. The material weaknesses related to an ineffective control

environment in the Company’s operations in Lenexa, Kansas, as more fully described in the Item 9A disclosure contained in the Company’s Form 10-K.
     During the nine months ended March 31, 2010, the Company has taken actions to remediate these material weaknesses. The Company hired experienced, qualified executives to assume the responsibilities of general manager and controller at its Lenexa, Kansas operation as permanent replacements for the persons who performed these functions.
     Additionally, the Company hired an internal auditor to regularly review the observance of the Company’s policies, procedures and internal controls globally. Management has continued the process that began during the first quarter of providing additional training with respect to the Company’s ethics and whistleblower policies, as well as the Company’s operating policies and procedures and internal controls, primarily in the areas related to revenue.
     The Company continues to review, document and test its internal control over financial reporting, and may from time to time make changes to improve the effectiveness of its internal controls and to ensure that its systems evolve with the Company’s business.
     These efforts will lead to various changes in internal control over financial reporting, which management believes will, when fully implemented during the current fiscal year, be effective in remediating the material weaknesses identified in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting set forth in Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, other than those referenced above, the Company has not made changes in the internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Part II: Other Information
ITEM 1A.   Risk Factors
     The following is an update to Item 1A — Risk Factors contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2009. For additional risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated, please refer to the Company’s Form 10-K.
Risks associated with indebtedness.
     The Company has indebtedness. As of March 31, 2010, the Company’s total indebtedness was $18,738, including $14,459 under its secured credit facility. Borrowings under the Company’s Credit Agreement are secured by the assets of the Company. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to satisfy certain financial covenants. At March 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained in its Credit Agreement. However, on May 12, 2010, the Company entered into Waiver and Amendment No. 6 to the Credit Agreement with Bank of America to provide a waiver of the Company’s failure to meet the currency adjusted Net Sales covenant for the consecutive three month period ending April 30, 2010.
     A decline in the Company’s financial performance could have a material adverse effect on the Company, including the Company’s ability to retain its existing financing or obtain additional financing; or any such financing may not be available on terms favorable to the Company. The Company’s ability to make expected repayments of borrowings under its Credit Agreement and to meet its other debt or contractual obligations (including compliance with applicable financial covenants) will depend upon the Company’s future performance and its

Table of Contents

cash flows from operations, both of which are subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, and other known and unknown risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control.
Current economic conditions and market disruptions adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations.
     A substantial portion of the Company’s business depends on customers’ demands for its products and services, the overall economic health of current and prospective customers, and general economic conditions. The general economic downturn has and will continue to adversely impact the Company’s business and financial condition in a number of ways, including having an impact beyond those impacts typically associated with previous economic contractions in the U.S. and other locations. The economic slowdown is leading to reduced capital spending by OEM and end users, which has already adversely affected and will continue to adversely affect the Company’s product sales. The slowdown could necessitate further testing for impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets, and long-lived assets and may negatively impact the valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. In addition, further cost reduction actions may be necessary which would lead to additional restructuring charges. Tight credit in the financial markets has and will continue to adversely affect the ability of the Company’s customers and suppliers to obtain financing for significant purchases. Tight credit has resulted in a reduction in order activity and some cancellations of orders for the Company’s products and services. The Company’s ability to collect its accounts receivable on a timely basis could result in additional reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable being required, and in the event of continued contraction in the Company’s sales, could lead to dated inventory and require additional reserves for obsolescence.
     The Company is unable to predict the duration and severity of the current economic downturn and disruption in financial markets or their effects on the Company’s business and results of operations; but the consequences may be materially adverse and more severe than other recent economic slowdowns.
ITEM 2.   Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
     There has been no activity under the Company’s stock repurchase program for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.
ITEM 5.   Other Events
     The Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into Waiver and Amendment No. 6 to Credit Agreement (the “Waiver and Amendment”) with Bank of America, N.A. as a Lender and as Administrative Agent, and certain other Lenders, effective as of May 12, 2010. The Waiver and Amendment provides for a waiver by the Lenders of the Company’s failure to meet the Currency Adjusted Net Sales covenant for the consecutive three-month period ending April 30, 2010 and amends the Credit Agreement to change the date for delivery of the Company’s financial projections for the Fiscal Year commencing July 1, 2010, all as further set forth in the Amendment. A copy of the Waiver and Amendment is attached to this Report as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
     On May 13, 2010, the Company reported its results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2010. Details of this announcement are contained in the press
