PART II
Item 8.  
Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and
Board of Directors
Orbit/FR, Inc.
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Orbit/FR, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 did not audit the financial statements of Orbit/FR Engineering, LTD., a wholly owned subsidiary, which statements reflect total assets of $10,874,000 as of December 31, 2010 and $9,047,000 at December 31, 2009 and total revenues of $16,348,000 and $14,435,000 for the respective years then ended. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Orbit/FR Engineering, LTD., is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
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 and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audit and the reports of the other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Orbit/FR, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

ORBIT / FR, Inc.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Ownership and Basis of Presentation
ORBIT/FR, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on December 9, 1996, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Orbit-Alchut Technologies, Ltd., an Israeli publicly traded corporation (hereinafter referred to as “Alchut”). On May 13, 2008, Alchut sold all of its 3.7 million shares of common stock of the Company to Satimo Industries, SA (Satimo) and on June 30, 2009, as a result of a corporate reorganization, Satimo became a wholly owned subsidiary of Microwave Vision, SA (“Microwave Vision”) a newly created holding company which is publicly traded on the ALTERNEXT stock exchange. The Company develops, markets, and supports sophisticated automated microwave test and measurement systems for the wireless communications, satellite, automotive, and aerospace/defense industries and manufactures anechoic foam, a microwave absorbing material that is an integral component of microwave test and measurement systems. ORBIT/FR, Inc., a holding company, supports its worldwide customers through its subsidiaries ORBIT/FR Engineering, LTD (Israel), (hereinafter referred to as “Engineering”), ORBIT/FR Europe (Germany), Advanced ElectroMagnetics, Inc. (“AEMI”, San Diego, CA), and Orbit Advanced Technologies, Inc. and Flam and Russell, Inc. (Horsham, PA). The Company sells its products to customers throughout Asia, Europe and North and South America.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s functional currency for the operations of its subsidiary in Israel is the U.S. dollar. The Company’s functional currency for the operations of its German subsidiary is the Euro. The translation of foreign subsidiaries’ financial statements denominated in a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar into U.S. dollars is performed at each balance sheet date as follows: The foreign currency statement of operations is translated at the average exchange rate in effect for the period. The balance sheet asset and liability accounts are translated at the period-end exchange rate. The resulting translation gain or loss is recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The change in the cumulative translation gains or losses from the preceding period is separately reported, net of income tax effect, on the statement of operations under the caption “Other comprehensive income (loss) — foreign currency translation adjustment,” unless such change is considered immaterial (in which case it is included in foreign exchange transaction gains or losses).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company classifies as cash equivalents all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase.
Accounts Receivable
The Company accounts for potential losses in accounts receivable utilizing the allowance method. In reviewing aged receivables, management considers its knowledge of customers, historical losses and current economic conditions in establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in first out method, or market.

Table of Contents

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed on accelerated methods for both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes over the estimated useful lives as follows: office equipment — 5-7 years; lab equipment — 5 years; furniture and fixtures — 7 years; transportation equipment — 5 years; leasehold improvements — life of lease.
Cost in Excess of Net Assets Acquired
Cost in excess of net assets acquired (“goodwill”), represents the excess of costs over the fair value of the net assets acquired in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Advanced ElectroMagnetics, Inc. (AEMI) in 1997.
The Company has tested the goodwill of AEMI for impairment at December 31, 2010 and 2009 using the present value of future cash flow valuation method. No adjustment for the value of goodwill was necessary.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company’s principal sources of contract revenues are from engineering and design services and the production of electro-mechanical equipment. Revenues from long-term fixed-price development contracts performed principally under the Company’s control are recognized on the percentage-of- completion method, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date to estimated total costs for each contract when such costs can be reasonably estimated. Contract costs include all direct material, labor and subcontractor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance such as indirect labor, supplies and tool costs. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and revenue and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed are classified under current assets as costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts. Amounts billed to customers in excess of revenues recognized to date are classified under current liabilities as billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts.
Revenues from electro-mechanical equipment sold to customers which are not part of a larger contract are recognized when the contract is completed and the equipment is delivered.
Research and Development
Internally funded research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. Included in cost of revenues are customer-funded research and development costs of approximately $8 and $147 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Other research and development costs are separately reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Significant Customers
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and accounts receivable.
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various major commercial institutions in the U.S. and overseas. At December 31, 2010, cash balances that are either uninsured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit per financial institution, or are located overseas without such type of insurance coverage, totaled approximately $1,979. The Company does not anticipate credit risk in connection with its concentration of cash.
To reduce credit risk relating to the Company’s sales in the U.S. and overseas, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its commercial customers’ financial condition, but generally does not require collateral for government and domestic commercial customers. For certain foreign commercial customers, the Company generally requires irrevocable letters of credit in the amount of the total contract. At December 31, 2010, there were twenty four bank guarantees in place for foreign customers with an aggregate value of approximately $4,655. One customer accounted for 10.6% of the Company’s consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Table of Contents

Warranty Expense
The Company provides for warranty costs on its products. Product warranty periods generally extend for one year from the date of sale. The warranty expense is not material.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts reportable for income tax purposes. The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with its domestic subsidiaries and separate income tax returns in Israel and Germany for its foreign subsidiaries.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The Company records transactions in connection with foreign currency invoices received, collected, issued or paid at the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Receivables and payables denominated in foreign currency are re-measured at each balance sheet date. The differences resulting from unrealized changes in foreign exchange rates are recorded as foreign exchange gain or loss, which is included as a component of “Other (loss) income, net” on the consolidated statement of operations. When a transaction is collected or paid within an accounting period, a realized foreign exchange gain or loss is recorded based on the rate at the date of settlement and the previous carrying amount of the receivable or payable. The Company occasionally enters into forward exchange currency contracts and their carrying amount is measured at each balance sheet date. The change in carrying amount is recorded as a foreign exchange gain or loss. The foreign transaction gain for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 was $22. The foreign transaction loss for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $120.
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, approximately 21% and 14%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue was billed in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Transactions with the Company’s parent are predominantly in Euros. The majority of the costs incurred in performing the Company’s contracts have been denominated in U.S. dollars.
Income Per Share Amounts
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period plus the effect of outstanding stock options when they are considered dilutive. Outstanding stock options were not considered dilutive in 2009.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 12. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock options issued pursuant to its stock option plans (the “Plans”) under recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, as permitted by subsequent standards issued by the Financial Standards Accounting Board. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value provisions for share-based awards, and compensation costs. All share based awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, are based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Standards Accounting Board and recognized on a straight line basis over the shorter of the vesting or requisite service periods.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and bank financing reported in the consolidated balance sheets equal or approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Public companies in the United States are subject to the accounting and reporting requirements of various authorities, including the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These authorities issue numerous pronouncements, most of which are not applicable to the Company’s current or reasonably foreseeable operating structure. Below are the new authoritative pronouncements that management believes are relevant to the Company’s current operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS-107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. This amends previous guidance, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance was effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. This guidance did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued revised guidance related to multiple-element arrangements which requires an entity to allocate arrangement consideration at the inception of an arrangement to all deliverables based on relative-selling-price. This update eliminates the use of the residual method of allocation and requires the relative-selling-price method in all circumstances. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after September 15, 2010. Companies may use either prospective application for revenue arrangements entered into, or materially modified, after the effective date or through retrospective application to all revenue arrangements for all periods presented. The Company does not believe this amended guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued amended guidance that affects how entities account for revenue arrangements that contain both hardware and software elements. Products that rely on software will be accounted for under the revised multiple-element arrangement revenue recognition guidance mentioned above rather than software revenue recognition guidance. The revised guidance must be adopted no later than fiscal years beginning on or after September 15, 2010. The transition method and period for the adoption of this guidance and the revisions to the multiple-elements arrangements guidance noted above must be the same. The Company does not believe that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effected, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

5. Short Term Bank Financing
On December 13, 2010 the Company signed a new $2.25 million domestic demand line of credit facility agreement with Citizens Bank. The revolving line can also be used to support the issuance of letters of credit. The interest rate on loans under the line is at LIBOR rate plus 2.25%. The new facility does not contain any financial covenants and is collateralized by the assets of Orbit Advanced Technologies, Inc. and Advanced Electromagnetics, Inc. subsidiaries of Orbit/FR, Inc. The agreement prohibits the payment of dividends on or any distribution on account of any class of capital stock in cash or property without prior written consent of the Bank. In addition, the Company also signed a $250,000 asset term note non-revolving line of credit with Citizens Bank. This facility has an interest rate of prime plus two and one-half percent and allows up to a five year amortization of any advances under the facility starting at the time of each advance.
Orbit/FR Engineering, LTD has established lines of credit with the two Israeli banks and one Indian Bank (Israeli Branch). The line of credit from one Israeli bank has a NIS denominated limit of 378 and USD 1,900 for the issuances of bank guarantees of letters of credit in favor of customers and one Israeli bank has a US dollar denominated limit of $250 and $2,400 for the issuances of bank guarantees of letters of credit in favor of customers. The Indian bank line of credit is $500 and $3,000 for the issuances of bank guarantees of letters of credit in favor of customers. The interest rates charged by all the banks are at LIBOR plus 2.25%. There were no outstanding balances due at December 31, 2010 and 2009 under the lines of credit. The bank agreements with all three banks do not have expiration dates but are subject to termination on a quarterly basis based upon the Company’s financial performance for the quarter. These lines of credit are collateralized by the assets of Orbit/FR Engineering, LTD., a subsidiary of Orbit/FR, Inc.

In consideration thereof, the Company, Satimo and each of the other Subsidiaries agreed to pay Microwave Vision a fee to be determined as of the start of each calendar year, effective on January 1, 2009, based on the projected gross margins of each Subsidiary for that year, subject to adjustment at year-end based on each entities gross margin (as defined) for the year. In addition, the Company agreed to pay Microwave Vision an additional fee of 1% of its gross sales in consideration of the right to use the name “Microwave Vision” in the Company’s sales and marketing activities. The Company has recorded approximately $1.7 million and $1.5 million respectively in expenses related to the Services Agreement for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. As a result of the year-end adjustment, the amount of expense charged for the quarters ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $657,000 and $588,000 or $315,000 and $271,000 respectively, greater than the quarterly charges accrued by the Company based upon budget.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $7,806 for U.S. federal income tax purposes which expire through 2024. On May 13, 2008, Alchut sold all of its 3.7 million shares of common stock of the Company to Satimo. Due to the change in ownership of the Company utilization of a portion of these net operating loss carryforward is limited pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code to approximately $1,315 a year, plus any losses incurred after May 13, 2008. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward in Germany of approximately $431 and an Israeli net operating loss carryforward of approximately $621, both of which are available indefinitely. In 2010 and 2009, the Company decreased its valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets by $668 and $1,098, respectively due to the Company’s estimate of its ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in the U.S., Israel and Germany to realize a portion of its deferred tax assets.
The Company’s US tax returns for 2007 through 2010 are open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The open years for state tax examination vary from 2006 through 2010. The Company’s German and Israeli tax years open to examination are 2007 through 2010.
The Company has not provided for federal income taxes applicable to the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries of approximately $1.0 million as of December 31, 2010, since these earnings are considered permanently reinvested.
10. Retirement Plans
The Company has retirement plans which cover substantially all U.S. employees who have attained the age of 21 and have completed 3 months of service. Eligible employees make voluntary contributions to the plans up to specified percentages of their annual compensation as defined in the plans. Under the plans, the Company makes discretionary matching contributions determinable each plan year and additional contributions based on annual eligible compensation for each participant. The plans are funded on a current basis. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s contributions to the plans were $47 and $45, respectively.

12. Stock Option Plan
The Company’s 1997 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), as subsequently amended, provides for awards of 1,200,000 shares of the Company’s stock. Options granted generally vest over five years and typically have a life of ten years. The purpose of the Incentive Plan is to promote the long-term retention of the Company’s key employees and certain other persons who are in a position to make significant contributions to the success of the Company. The Incentive Plan permits grants of incentive stock options (“ISOs”), options not intended to qualify as ISOs (“nonqualified options”), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted, unrestricted and deferred stock awards, performance awards, loans and supplemental cash awards, and combinations of the foregoing (all referred to as “Awards”).
In July of 2007, the Board of Directors approved two grants of non-qualified stock options for 84,300 and 435,100 shares to key employees, management and Board members of the Company. These grants resulted in stock-based compensation expense of $26 and $63 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
In March of 2008, the Board of Directors approved a grant of non-qualified stock options for 30,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. This grant resulted in stock-based compensation of $14 and $14 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model for use in estimating the fair value of its stock options. This model was developed for traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. Option models require input of highly subjective assumptions including future stock price volatility. Because the Company’s stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates, in management’s opinion, the Black-Scholes model does not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value the Company’s stock options.

13. Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
The holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share on record on any matters to be voted on by the stockholders. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends if declared by the Board of Directors and to share ratably in the assets of the Company legally available for distribution to its stockholders in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights.
Preferred Stock
The Company’s Board of Directors may, without further action by the Company’s stockholders, from time to time, direct the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in series and may, at the time of issuance, determine the rights, preferences and limitations of each series. The holders of Preferred Stock would normally be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company before any payment is made to the holders of the Common Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock or could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of Common Stock.
Treasury Stock
On June 24, 1998, the Company’s Board approved the repurchase of up to 300,000 shares of its stock. The Company has repurchased 82,900 shares through December 31, 2010 for $243, of which 200 shares were re-issued in 2009 for a nominal amount.
