PART I

ITEM 1.		BUSINESS

The Allied Defense Group, Inc. (“Allied” or the “Company”) previously conducted a multinational defense business focused on the manufacture and sale of ammunition and ammunition related products for use by the U.S. and foreign governments. Allied’s business was conducted by two wholly-owned subsidiaries: MECAR sprl, formerly MECAR S.A. (“Mecar”), and ADG Sub USA, Inc., formerly MECAR USA, Inc. (“Mecar USA”).

On June 24, 2010, the Company signed a definitive purchase and sale agreement (the “Agreement”) with Chemring Group PLC (“Chemring”) pursuant to which Chemring agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of the Company for $59.56 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. On September 1, 2010, the Company completed the asset sale to Chemring contemplated by the Agreement. Chemring acquired all of the capital stock of Mecar for $45.81 million in cash, and separately Chemring acquired substantially all of the assets of Mecar USA for $13.75 million in cash and the assumption by Chemring of certain specified liabilities of Mecar USA. A portion of the purchase price was paid through the repayment of certain intercompany indebtedness owed to the Company that would otherwise have been cancelled at closing. Approximately $15 million of the proceeds of the sale was deposited into escrow to secure the Company’s indemnification obligations under the Agreement.

In conjunction with the Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously approved the dissolution of the Company pursuant to a Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (“Plan of Dissolution”). The Company’s stockholders approved the Plan of Dissolution on September 30, 2010. In response to concerns of certain of the Company’s stockholders, the Company has agreed to delay the filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State so that the stockholders may continue to transfer the Company’s common stock while the Company attempts to resolve the matters relating to the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) subpoena as described below. The Company will delay the filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State until the earlier of August 31, 2011 or a resolution of all matters concerning the DOJ.

On September 2, 2010, the Company received a staff determination letter (the “Staff Determination”) from NYSE Amex LLC (the “Exchange”). The Staff Determination stated that the Exchange determined that the Company no longer complied with the requirements for continued listing set forth in NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide Section 1003(c)(i) as a result of the sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets. On September 20, 2010, the Company announced that trading of shares of the Company’s common stock had been transferred from the NYSE Amex to the OTCQB™ Marketplace. The Company’s trading symbol is now ADGI.

In connection with the adoption of the Plan of Dissolution and the anticipated liquidation of the Company, we adopted the liquidation basis of accounting effective close of business on September 30, 2010, whereby assets are valued at their estimated net realizable cash values and liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement amounts. Uncertainties as to the ultimate amount of our liabilities make it impractical to predict the aggregate net value that may ultimately be distributable to stockholders. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, we accrue for the remaining costs to be incurred during liquidation, including compensation for remaining directors, consultants, insurance costs, costs to settle remaining leases, fees for professional service providers, income taxes, and miscellaneous other costs, partially offset by estimated future interest earnings. Such net costs were estimated to be $3.6 million as of December 31, 2010. Our estimates are based on assumptions regarding our ability to settle outstanding obligations to trade creditors, settle remaining leases and the ultimate timing of distributions to our stockholders, but do not include any settlement amounts, fines or penalties, if any, that we might incur as a result of the DOJ subpoena or any other legal proceedings.

The Company received a subpoena from the DOJ on January 19, 2010 requesting that the Company produce documents relating to its dealings with foreign governments. The DOJ initially limited its request of documents to those relating to an indicted former employee of Mecar USA. The DOJ has subsequently advised the Company that it is conducting an industry-wide review, and therefore the DOJ’s investigation of the Company will be expanded and ongoing. The Company has also received inquiries from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as to this matter. We cannot predict the settlement amounts, fines or penalties, if any, that we might incur as a result of the foregoing. As a result, it is unlikely that any distributions to our stockholders will be made until the matters relating to the DOJ subpoena have been resolved. The period of time required to resolve these matters is uncertain but is expected to take in excess of one year. Furthermore, under the Agreement, the Company has agreed to indemnify Chemring and certain of its related parties from any losses, fines or penalties arising out of, among other things, the completed contracts of Mecar and Mecar USA. We have agreed to escrow $15 million of the cash consideration paid to the Company in the sale to secure our indemnification obligations under the Agreement. These escrowed funds will not be available to the Company for distribution to our stockholders, or otherwise, until released to the Company pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.

Prior to September 2010, the Company operated within two operating segments: Mecar and Mecar USA. Allied, the parent company, provided oversight and corporate services to its subsidiaries and had no operating activities. With the completion of the September 2010 sale, Allied no longer has operating segments. The Company is being managed by its two directors who are also serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Company no longer has any full-time employees. Allied no longer conducts any active business operations and is winding-up its affairs and preparing to dissolve in accordance with the Plan of Dissolution as set forth above.

ITEM 3.		LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

DOJ Subpoena

On January 19, 2010, the Company received a subpoena and communications from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) requesting the Company produce documents relating to its dealings with foreign governments. The subpoena stated that it was issued in connection with an ongoing criminal investigation. On the same day, the Company also became aware through a press release issued by the DOJ that an employee of Mecar USA had been indicted by the DOJ for allegedly engaging in schemes to bribe foreign government officials to obtain and retain business. The unsealed indictment of this employee and the DOJ’s press release indicate that the alleged criminal conduct was on behalf of a Decatur, Georgia company which is unrelated to the Company or Mecar USA. Mecar USA’s employment agreement with the employee provides that the employee shall not actively engage in any other employment, occupation or consulting activity that conflicts with the interests of the Company. In light of the employee’s apparent breach of his employment agreement, Mecar USA terminated his employment on January 20, 2010.

According to the DOJ’s press release, the former employee was arrested on January 19, 2010, along with twenty-one other individuals, after a large-scale undercover operation that targeted foreign bribery in the military and law enforcement products industry. The indictments of the twenty-two individuals allege that the defendants conspired to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), conspired to engage in money laundering and engaged in substantive violations of the FCPA.

Subsequently, the Company received notice from the DOJ that indicated that it would request additional documents and expand its review beyond matters relating to the indicted former employee of Mecar USA. The Company understands that the DOJ’s expanded review was in connection with an industry-wide review. The Company has also received inquiries from the SEC as to this matter.

The Company is cooperating with the DOJ and the SEC and complying with the DOJ’s subpoena and the SEC’s requests for information. The Company’s ongoing compliance with these matters is being overseen by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is being assisted in these matters by independent outside counsel. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters or the impact, if any, that they may have on our plan to return the net proceeds of the Chemring sale to our stockholders.

Litigation Relating to Consulting Agreement

On April 19, 2010, a lawsuit was filed against the Company by Sterling Investors Group Limited in the Circuit Court for Fairfax County, Virginia alleging breach of contract related to an agreement the Company entered into with a loan brokerage firm in its attempt to seek a new bank line of credit. The lawsuit seeks damages in the amount of $0.640 million. The Company is finalizing a settlement which will result in a modest payment by the Company.

Litigation Initiated by Former Employee

A former executive employee of the Company has instituted a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for Fairfax County, Virginia against the Company and others alleging fraud, constructive fraud, breach of contract, unjust encroachment, tortuous interference with business expectancy and civil conspiracy, all relating to the former executive employee’s change of control severance agreement. The former executive employee seeks damages in excess of $6.0 million. The Company believes this lawsuit is without merit and is vigorously defending it.

Litigation Relating to Consulting Agreement (MECAR)

A former consultant to MECAR has initiated a lawsuit in Belgium against MECAR and the Company for unpaid consulting fees in excess of $0.75 million. The Company believes that any liability with respect to this matter will be borne by MECAR and not the Company.

Indemnification provisions

The Company has sold its SeaSpace, Titan, the VSK Group, GMS and NSM subsidiaries in separate transactions starting with the first transaction closing in 2007. In each transaction, the Company agreed to indemnify the purchaser for periods subsequent to closing for losses arising from breaches of representations, warranties and covenants. Indemnification periods varied based on the particular representation, warranty or covenant covered, the vast majority of which have all expired. As of December 31, 2010, the only remaining indemnification obligations relate to representations and warranties concerning taxes, environmental matters, breaches of title, breaches of authorization and fraud. For SeaSpace, Titan, the VSK Group, GMS and NSM, these indemnification provisions have been capped at $1 million, $0.95 million, $6.8 million, $5.2 million and $0.863 million, respectively. At December 31, 2010, no amount has been accrued related to these indemnifications as a liability is not deemed probable.

On June 24, 2010, the Company signed a definitive purchase and sale agreement with Chemring Group PLC pursuant to which Chemring agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of the Company for $59.56 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. The purchase and sale agreement contains certain indemnification provisions pursuant to which the Company may be required to indemnify the buyer for a period subsequent to the completion of the sale for any and all losses directly or indirectly based upon, related to, arising out of or in connection with Mecar’s completed contracts, Mecar USA liabilities retained by the Company and any failure by the Company to satisfy all transaction related expenses. The Company’s indemnification liability is limited to, and capped at, the escrowed amount of $15 million plus the accumulated interest. The Company’s indemnification obligations expire upon the earlier of (i) June 30, 2015 and (ii) the Company’s entry into either a court or administrative order or a Chemring-approved settlement agreement, in either case, finally resolving the matters relating to the DOJ’s subpoena. In the absence of such final resolution, in certain circumstances, up to 50% of the escrowed funds may be released as early as June 24, 2013. At December 31, 2010, no amount has been accrued related to this indemnification as a liability is not deemed probable.

ITEM 7.		MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (amounts in thousands of dollars, other than share data)

Overview

The Allied Defense Group Inc. (“Allied” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, previously conducted a multinational defense business focused on the manufacture and sale of ammunition and ammunition related products for use by the U.S. and foreign governments. Allied’s business was conducted by its two wholly owned subsidiaries: MECAR sprl, formerly Mecar S.A. (“Mecar”), and ADG Sub USA, Inc., formerly Mecar USA, Inc. (“Mecar USA”).

On June 24, 2010, the Company signed a definitive purchase and sale agreement (the “Agreement”) with Chemring Group PLC (“Chemring”) pursuant to which Chemring agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of the Company for $59,560 in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. On September 1, 2010, the Company completed the asset sale to Chemring contemplated by the Agreement. Pursuant to the Agreement, Chemring acquired all of the capital stock of Mecar for approximately $45,810 in cash, and separately Chemring acquired substantially all of the assets of Mecar USA for $13,750 in cash and the assumption by Chemring of certain specified liabilities of Mecar USA. A portion of the purchase price was paid through the repayment of certain intercompany indebtedness owed to the Company that would otherwise have been cancelled at closing. $15,000 of the proceeds of the sale was deposited into escrow to secure certain of the Company’s indemnification obligations under the Agreement.

In conjunction with the Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously approved the dissolution of the Company pursuant to a Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (“Plan of Dissolution”). The Company’s stockholders approved the Plan of Dissolution on September 30, 2010. In response to concerns of certain of the Company’s stockholders, the Company has agreed to delay the filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State so that the stockholders may continue to transfer the Company’s common stock while the Company resolves the matters relating to the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in which the Company is required to produce documents relating to its dealings with foreign governments. The Company will delay the filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State until the earlier of August 31, 2011 or a resolution of all matters concerning the DOJ.

On September 2, 2010, the Company received a staff determination letter (the “Staff Determination”) from NYSE Amex LLC (the “Exchange”). The Staff Determination stated that the Exchange has determined that the Company no longer complies with the requirements for continued listing set forth in NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide Section 1003(c)(i) as a result of the sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets. On September 20, 2010, the Company announced that trading of shares of the Company’s common stock has been transferred from the NYSE Amex to the OTCQB™ Marketplace effective Monday, September 20, 2010. The Company’s trading symbol is now ADGI.

With the authorization of the Plan of Dissolution, the Company adopted the liquidation basis of accounting effective as of close of business on September 30, 2010. The liquidation basis of accounting will continue to be used by the Company until such time that the plan is terminated. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net realizable value and liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement amounts, which estimates will be periodically reviewed and adjusted as appropriate. Consolidated Statements of Net Assets in Liquidation and Changes in Net Assets in Liquidation are the principal financial statements presented under the liquidation basis of accounting. The valuations of assets at their net realizable value and liabilities at their anticipated settlement amounts represent estimates, based on present facts and circumstances, of the net realizable values of assets and the costs associated with carrying out the Plan of Dissolution based on the assumptions set forth below. The actual values and costs associated with carrying out the Plan of Dissolution are expected to differ from the amounts shown herein because of the inherent uncertainty and will be greater than or less than the amounts recorded. Such differences may be material. In particular, the estimates of the Company’s costs will vary with the length of time it operates under the Plan of Dissolution. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict the aggregate amount or timing of future distributions to stockholders, as long as the plan is in effect, and no assurance can be given that the amount of liquidating distributions to be received will equal or exceed the estimate of net assets in liquidation presented in the accompanying Statement of Net Assets in Liquidation.

Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the carrying amounts of assets as of the close of business on September 30, 2010, the date of the authorization of the Plan of Dissolution by the Company, were adjusted to their estimated net realizable values and liabilities, including the estimated costs associated with implementing the Plan of Dissolution, were adjusted to estimated settlement amounts. Such value estimates were updated by the Company as of December 31, 2010. The majority of the net assets in liquidation at December 31, 2010 was highly liquid and did not require adjustment as their estimated net realizable value approximates their current book value.

The Company is also required to estimate and accrue the costs associated with implementing and completing the Plan of Dissolution under the liquidation basis of accounting. These amounts can vary significantly due to, among other things, the costs of retaining personnel and others to oversee the liquidation, including compensation for former employees and remaining directors, insurance costs, costs to settle remaining leases, fees for legal and other professional service providers, income taxes, and miscellaneous other costs, partially offset by estimated future interest earnings on the Company’s cash accounts. Such net costs were estimated to be $3.6 million as of December 31, 2010. Such estimates are based on assumptions regarding the Company’s ability to settle outstanding obligations to creditors, resolve outstanding litigation, settle remaining leases and the ultimate timing of distributions to its stockholders, but does not include any settlement amounts, fines or penalties, if any, that the Company might incur as a result of the DOJ subpoena or any other legal proceedings. These estimates will be adjusted from time to time as projections and assumptions change.

For all periods preceding the authorization of the Plan of Dissolution, the Company’s financial statements are presented on the going concern basis of accounting. Such financial statements reflect the historical basis of assets and liabilities and the historical results of operations related to the Company’s assets and liabilities for the period from January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009.

Prior to September 2010, the Company operated within two operating segments: Mecar and Mecar USA. Allied, the parent company, provided oversight and corporate services to its subsidiaries and had no operating activities. With the completion of the September 2010 sale, Allied no longer has operating segments. The Company’s continuing operations include only those expenses incurred to support the Company’s corporate headquarters and its non-operating European subsidiaries. The Company is being managed by its two directors who are also serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We assess liquidity primarily by the cash which we believe is necessary to fund the wind-down of our operations and our remaining contractual obligations, as well as to allow for reasonable contingencies identified in the liquidation process. Effective close of business on September 30, 2010 upon approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Plan of Dissolution, we adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. Upon adoption, we recorded a charge of $17 to adjust our assets to their estimated net realizable cash values and our liabilities to their estimated settlement amounts. As of September 30, 2010, we accrued $4,000 in net remaining costs we expect to incur during liquidation. As of December 31, 2010, our estimate of net remaining costs was reduced to $3,564. The following table summarizes the changes in estimated liquidation costs from September 30, 2010 to December 31, 2010:

		September 30,				Changes in				Costs Incurred				December 31,
		2010				Estimates				(Income Received)				2010
Estimated net costs to be incurred during liquidation
Compensation for remaining employees and directors		$	930			$	(443	)		$	(89	)		$	398
Compliance and other costs			855				863				(488	)			1,230
Insurance Fees			580				(122	)			(107	)			351
Professional Fees			2,135				(510	)			(240	)			1,385
Income Taxes			—				350				—				350
Less: interest income on cash and investment balances			(500	)			331				19				(150	)
Total net costs to be incurred during liquidation		$	4,000			$	469			$	(905	)		$	3,564

The reduction is due to change in estimates and actual expenses incurred in the fourth quarter of 2010. The $3,564 in net remaining costs to be incurred during liquidation consists of $398 in compensation for former employees and remaining directors; $1,230 for compliance and other office costs, including resident filing fees and costs to settle remaining leases; $351 for insurance; and $1,385 in fees for professional service providers including legal representation relating to the DOJ subpoena; offset by $150 estimated to be received on our cash and short-term investment balances during liquidation. Income tax payments not to exceed $350 are anticipated in the repatriation of cash balances held in foreign countries.

Estimated net costs to be incurred during liquidation were made at September 30, 2010 based on the facts and circumstances at the time. Changes to the estimates as of December 31, 2010 are due to the following: (i) compensation costs decreased due to reduced estimated severance costs including life insurance policies canceled for former employees; (ii) compliance and other office costs increased mainly due to the inability to sublease the office headquarters as previously anticipated; (iii) estimated professional fees decreased due to reduced legal and professional fees anticipated for the DOJ proceedings; and (iv) interest income decreased due to the adjustment of the anticipated interest rate to a rate which is consistent with 2010 fourth quarter actual rates.

Net assets in liquidation at December 31, 2010 after accounting for the above liquidation basis adjustments are $45,629 or $5.54 per share. Our estimates are based on the assumption that liquidation will occur no later than December 31, 2012.

Results of Operations (Going Concern Basis)

For all periods preceding the authorization of the Plan of Dissolution, the Company’s financial statements are presented on the going concern basis of accounting. Such financial statements reflect the historical basis of assets and liabilities and the historical results of operations related to the Company’s assets and liabilities for the period from January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009. Accordingly, the following discussion of the results of operations compares the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 as reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

With the September 2010 sale of both Mecar and Mecar USA, we will no longer generate revenue from the sale of our products. The Company’s continuing operations include only those costs incurred to support the Company’s corporate headquarters and its non-operating European subsidiaries. The operating results, prior to the sale of the business, for Mecar, Mecar USA, and NS Microwave Systems (“NSM”) are reported as discontinued operations. The sale of NSM was completed in August 2009. The Mecar and Mecar USA transactions closed on September 1, 2010.

Allied had a net loss from continuing operations of $8,807 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $6,475 for the year ended December 31, 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company had net income of $33,663 from discontinued operations as compared to net loss of $1,832 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Net income was $24,856 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to net loss of $8,307 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Results for 2010 were favorably impacted by the gains recognized from the sale of both Mecar and Mecar USA, both of which occurred in the current period.

The table below sets forth certain condensed consolidated statement of operations data for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and twelve months ended December 31, 2009:

Selling and Administrative Expenses (Corporate Expenses)

Selling and Administrative (SA) expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009 was $7,469 and $6,837, respectively. This increase of $632 is due primarily to severance payments made to Allied corporate employees who were terminated in conjunction with the September 2010 sale of Mecar and Mecar USA offset by lower corporate costs in the current period in anticipation of the sale transaction.

Net Interest Income (Expense). Interest income (expense) for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $38 as compared to $31 for the year ended December 31, 2009. This increase was a result of having higher average cash levels in 2010, including the net proceeds of the sale.

Net Gain (Loss) on Fair Value of the Warrants. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized a net gain (loss) of ($17) and $299, respectively, related to the fair value of the warrants. See Note G for a description of Warrants.

Other — Net. Other — net for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was a loss of $1,358 compared to a loss of $168 in the year ended December 31, 2009. The losses were due to weakening of the U.S. Dollar as compared to the Euro during the periods. A summary of the contents of this income (expense) is provided in the Note J — Other — Net of the financial statements.

Income Taxes. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was 0% and (3%) respectively. The Company did not record income tax expense from the September 2010 sale transaction as the gain was offset by the Company’s existing net operating loss carry forwards and foreign tax credits. The Company’s interim accounting for income taxes is in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim periods.

Net Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations. Net income (loss) from discontinued operations consists of gain on the sale of subsidiaries and losses from the operations of these discontinued businesses. See Note D for detail of the loss from discontinued operations.

The Company had a net gain from discontinued operations of $33,663 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to a net loss from discontinued operations of $1,832 for the year ended December 31, 2009. In the current period, the Company sold its Mecar and Mecar USA subsidiaries, as a result recognizing a gain on sale of $48,081. Discontinued operations of these two subsidiaries resulted in a loss of $14,418 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. As part of our ongoing business, the Company does not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities (“SPEs”), which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of September 30, 2010, the Company was not involved in any material SPE transactions.

A substantial portion of the Company’s cash balances are held outside the U.S. Most of the amounts held outside the U.S. could be repatriated to the U.S., but, under current law, would be subject to federal income taxes, less applicable foreign tax credits. Repatriation of some foreign balances is restricted by local laws. Allied has provided for the U.S. federal tax liability on these amounts for financial statement purposes, except for foreign earnings that are considered indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S. The Company expects to be able to repatriate the proceeds received from the sale of Mecar in 2011 without tax liability due to NOL carry forwards.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company re-evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis. The Company’s estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates or judgments under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company believes the following are its critical accounting policies which affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:

•

Foreign Currency Translations. The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. The resulting translation gains and losses are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Income and expense items are converted into U.S. dollars at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are credited or charged directly to operations.

•

Valuation of deferred income taxes and income tax reserves. Under the going concern method of accounting, income taxes were provided based on the liability method for financial reporting purposes. Under this method, deferred and prepaid taxes are provided for on temporary differences in the basis of assets and liabilities which are recognized in different periods for financial and tax reporting purposes. Valuation allowances are provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Where it is not more likely than not that the Company’s tax position will be sustained, the Company records its best estimate of the resulting tax liability and interest in the consolidated financial statements. It is the Company’s policy to record interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense for financial reporting purposes.

•

Estimates of expenses incurred and interest income received during liquidation. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company accrues for the remaining costs to be incurred during liquidation, including compensation for remaining directors, consultants, insurance costs, costs to settle remaining leases, fees for professional service providers and miscellaneous other costs, partially offset by estimated future interest earnings. These estimates are undiscounted for present value and are based on the assumption that liquidation will occur no later than December 31, 2012.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In the first quarter of 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855) — Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. This guidance amends FASB ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, so that SEC filers no longer are required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in originally issued and revised financial statements. SEC filers must evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures concerning transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy and a roll forward of the activity of assets and liabilities measured in Level 3 of the hierarchy. In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies existing disclosure requirements to require fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and disclosure regarding the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements on a recurring and nonrecurring basis. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 except for the roll forward of activity for Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2010, the Company adopted ASU 2009-17, “Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities,” which amended the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities and required additional disclosures concerning an enterprise’s continuing involvement with variable interest entities. The Company does not have variable interest entities; therefore, this ASU had no impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued accounting standards under ASC 855 “Subsequent Events” and an amendment in February 2010, which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855, as amended, specifically requires an SEC filer to evaluate and disclose subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. The new standards were effective for interim and annual periods ended after June 15, 2009 and the amendment is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company evaluated subsequent events through the financial statements issuance date and did not identify any events which require disclosure or would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2010.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecast in such forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 9A.		CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Overview

As a result of the sale of Mecar and Mecar USA and the adoption by the stockholders of the Plan of Dissolution, the Company has terminated all employees. During the third quarter of 2010 the Company reduced its corporate staff to one (1) person who left the Company in mid-November, 2010. The Company’s Officers/Board of Directors continue to oversee and review the Company’s system of financial reporting.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Subject to the provisions set forth in the Overview section above, under the direction and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 as of the end of the period covered by the report. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2010.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The management of The Allied Defense Group, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are effective as of December 31, 2010.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to SEC rules that permits the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the fiscal year quarter ended December 31, 2010, subject to the provisions set forth in the Overview section above, there was no significant change made in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B.		OTHER INFORMATION

There was no information required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter of 2010 which was not so disclosed.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders
The Allied Defense Group, Inc.
Vienna, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) of The Allied Defense Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statement of changes in net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) for the period from October 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010. We have also audited the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included 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, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note C to the consolidated financial statements, the shareholders of The Allied Defense Group, Inc. approved a plan of liquidation on September 30, 2010. As a result, the Company changed its basis of accounting effective October 1, 2010, from the going-concern basis to a liquidation basis.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) of The Allied Defense Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, the consolidated changes in net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) for the period from October 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010, the consolidated financial position as of December 31, 2009, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010 and for the year ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applied on the bases described in the preceding paragraph.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Business Operations

The Allied Defense Group Inc. (“Allied” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, previously conducted a multinational defense business focused on the manufacture and sale of ammunition and ammunition related products for use by the U.S. and foreign governments. Allied’s business was conducted by its two wholly owned subsidiaries: MECAR sprl, formerly Mecar S.A. (“Mecar”), and ADG Sub USA, Inc., formerly Mecar USA, Inc. (“Mecar USA”).

Plan of Dissolution and Liquidation

On June 24, 2010, the Company signed a definitive purchase and sale agreement (the “Agreement”) with Chemring Group PLC (“Chemring”) pursuant to which Chemring agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of the Company for $59,560 in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. On September 1, 2010, the Company completed the asset sale to Chemring contemplated by the Agreement. Pursuant to the Agreement, Chemring acquired all of the capital stock of Mecar for approximately $45,810 in cash, and separately Chemring acquired substantially all of the assets of Mecar USA for $13,750 in cash and the assumption by Chemring of certain specified liabilities of Mecar USA. A portion of the purchase price was paid through the repayment of certain intercompany indebtedness owed to the Company that would otherwise have been cancelled at closing. Approximately $15,000 of the proceeds of the sale was deposited into escrow to secure the Company’s indemnification obligations under the Agreement.

In conjunction with the Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously approved the dissolution of the Company pursuant to a Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (“Plan of Dissolution”). The Company’s stockholders approved the Plan of Dissolution on September 30, 2010. In response to concerns of certain of the Company’s stockholders, the Company has agreed to delay the filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State so that the stockholders may continue to transfer the Company’s common stock while the Company resolves the matters relating to the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) subpoena as described below in Note B — DOJ Legal Proceedings. The Company will delay the filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State until the earlier of August 31, 2011 or a resolution of all matters concerning the DOJ.

On September 2, 2010, the Company received a staff determination letter (the “Staff Determination”) from NYSE Amex LLC (the “Exchange”). The Staff Determination stated that the Exchange determined that the Company no longer complies with the requirements for continued listing set forth in NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide Section 1003(c)(i) as a result of the sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets. On September 20, 2010, the Company announced that trading of shares of the Company’s common stock had been transferred from the NYSE Amex to the OTCQB™ Marketplace effective Monday, September 20, 2010. The Company’s trading symbol is now ADGI.

NOTE B — DOJ LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On January 19, 2010, the Company received a subpoena and communications from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) requesting the Company produce documents relating to its dealings with foreign governments. The subpoena stated that it was issued in connection with an ongoing criminal investigation. On the same day, the Company also became aware through a press release issued by the DOJ that an employee of Mecar USA had been indicted by the DOJ for allegedly engaging in schemes to bribe foreign government officials to obtain and retain business. The unsealed indictment of this employee and the DOJ’s press release indicate that the alleged criminal conduct was on behalf of a Decatur, Georgia company which is unrelated to the Company or Mecar USA. Mecar USA’s employment agreement with the employee provides that the employee shall not actively engage in any other employment, occupation or consulting activity that conflicts with the interests of the Company. In light of the employee’s breach of his employment agreement, Mecar USA terminated his employment on January 20, 2010.

According to the DOJ’s press release, the former employee was arrested on January 19, 2010, along with twenty-one other individuals, after an undercover operation that targeted foreign bribery in the military, and small arms and ammunition industries. The indictments of the twenty-two individuals allege that the defendants conspired to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), conspired to engage in money laundering and engaged in substantive violations of the FCPA.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Thousands of Dollars)

Subsequently, the Company received notice from the DOJ that indicated that it would request additional documents and expand its review beyond matters relating to the indicted former employee of Mecar USA. The Company understands that the DOJ’s expanded review was in connection with an industry-wide review. The Company has also received inquiries from the SEC on this matter.

The Company is cooperating with the DOJ and the SEC and complying with the DOJ’s subpoena and the SEC’s requests for information. The Company’s ongoing compliance with the DOJ subpoena is being overseen by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is being assisted in these matters by independent outside counsel. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters or the impact, if any, that they may have on the plan to return the net proceeds of the Chemring sale to its stockholders. As a result of the DOJ subpoena, it is unlikely that any distributions to the Company’s stockholders will be made until the matters relating to the DOJ subpoena have been resolved. The period of time required to resolve these matters is uncertain but is expected to take in excess of one year. Furthermore, under the Agreement, the Company has agreed to indemnify Chemring and certain of its related parties from any losses, fines or penalties arising out of, among other things, the completed contracts of Mecar and Mecar USA. We have agreed to escrow $15,000 of the cash consideration paid to the Company in the sale to secure our maximum indemnification obligations under the Agreement. These escrowed funds will not be available to the Company for distribution to our stockholders, or otherwise, until released to the Company pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.

For additional disclosures surrounding other legal contingencies, refer to Note H — Contingencies and Commitments.

NOTE C — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

With the authorization of the Plan of Dissolution, the Company adopted the liquidation basis of accounting effective as the close of business on September 30, 2010. The liquidation basis of accounting will continue to be used by the Company until such time that the plan is terminated. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net realizable value and liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement amounts, which estimates will be periodically reviewed and adjusted as appropriate. Consolidated Statements of Net Assets in Liquidation and Changes in Net Assets in Liquidation are the principal financial statements presented under the liquidation basis of accounting. The valuations of assets at their net realizable value and liabilities at their anticipated settlement amounts represent estimates, based on present facts and circumstances associated with carrying out the Plan of Dissolution based on the assumptions set forth below. The actual values and costs associated with carrying out the Plan of Dissolution are expected to differ from the amounts shown herein because of the inherent uncertainty and will be greater than or less than the amounts recorded. Such differences may be material. In particular, the estimates of the Company’s costs will vary with the length of time it operates under the Plan of Dissolution. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict the aggregate amount or timing of future distributions to stockholders, as long as the plan is in effect, and no assurance can be given that the amount of liquidating distributions to be received will equal or exceed the estimate of net assets in liquidation presented in the accompanying Statement of Net Assets in Liquidation.

Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the carrying amounts of assets as of the close of business on September 30, 2010, the date of the authorization of the Plan of Dissolution by the Company, were adjusted to their estimated net realizable values and liabilities, including the estimated costs associated with implementing the Plan of Dissolution. Such value estimates were updated by the Company as of December 31, 2010. The majority of net assets in liquidation at December 31, 2010 were highly liquid and did not require adjustment as their estimated net realizable value approximates their current book value.
