Forward-Looking Safe Harbor Statement
This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995, including those relating to anticipated fiscal 2010 business performance and beyond. You can identify these statements by our use
of the words "may," "will," "should," "plans," "expects," "anticipates," "continue," "estimate," "project," "intend," and similar expressions.
These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or
anticipated. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general economic and business conditions, including unforeseen
weakness in the Company's markets, effects of continued geopolitical unrest and regional conflicts, competition, changes in technology
and methods of marketing, delays in completing engineering and manufacturing programs, changes in customer order patterns, changes
in product mix, continued success in technological advances and delivering technological innovations, continued funding of defense
programs, the timing of such funding, changes in the U.S. Government's interpretation of federal procurement rules and regulations,
market acceptance of the Company's products, shortages in components, production delays due to performance quality issues with
outsourced components, the inability to fully realize the expected benefits from acquisitions or delays in realizing such benefits, challenges
in integrating acquired businesses
and
achieving
anticipated
synergies,
and
difficulties
in
retaining
key
customers.
These
risks and
uncertainties also include such additional risk factors as are discussed in the Company's recent filings with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange
Commission,
including
its
Annual
Report
on
Form
10-K
for
the
year
ended
June
30,
2009.
The
Company
cautions
readers not
to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company undertakes no
obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made.
Use of Non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company provides
non-GAAP financial measures adjusted to exclude certain specified charges, which the Company believes are useful to help investors
better understand its past financial performance and prospects for the future. However, the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures
is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. Management
believes these non-GAAP financial measures assist in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying operational
results and trends, and management uses these measures, along with their corresponding GAAP financial measures, to manage the
Company's business, to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. A
reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this presentation is contained in the Company’s most recent
earnings release, which can be found on our website at www.mc.com/mediacenter/pressreleaseslist.aspx.
