NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
September 30, 2006
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
Graham Corporations (the Companys) Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include two
wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, one located in the United Kingdom and one located in China, and
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all information and notes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The March
31, 2006 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from the Companys audited Consolidated
Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2006. For additional information, please refer to the consolidated
financial statements and notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended March 31, 2006. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring
accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the Companys
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Companys results of operations for the three and six-months ended September 30, 2006 and
cash flows for the six months ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2007.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with the current
year presentation. In the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Retained Earnings for
the three and six months ended September 30, 2005, gross profit was added for comparison to the
gross profit reported in the comparable periods of the current fiscal year.
NOTE 2 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:
Effective April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which requires the cost of all share-based payments to
be measured at fair value on the grant date and recognized in the Companys Consolidated Statements
of Operations. This change did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows in the six month period ended September 30, 2006.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model as the method for determining the fair value of
its equity awards granted after April 1, 2006. The modified prospective transition method, which
requires that prior periods not be restated and that compensation cost be recognized in the
financial statements for all awards granted after the date of adoption, as well as for existing
awards that were not fully vested as of the date of adoption, has been used by the Company for all
equity awards granted after April 1, 2006. All of the Companys equity awards existing at April 1,
2006 were fully vested. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that an estimated forfeiture rate be applied to
outstanding awards, the impact of which was not
7
Table of Contents
material upon adoption. SFAS No. 123(R) also requires an entity to calculate the pool of
excess benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to adoption of SFAS No.
123(R) (the APIC Pool). In November 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued FSP No. FAS 123(R)-3, Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of
Share-Based Payment Awards. FSP No. FAS 123(R)-3 provides an elective alternative simplified
method for calculating the APIC Pool. The Company has elected to use the alternative simplified
method to calculate its APIC Pool. SFAS No. 123(R) also amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash
Flows, to require that excess tax benefits that had been reflected as operating cash flows be
reflected as financing cash flows.
The Company previously accounted for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company continued to
measure compensation for its equity compensation plans using the intrinsic value based method of
accounting, prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB), Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees.
The 2000 Graham Corporation Incentive Plan to Increase Shareholder Value provides for the
issuance of up to 300,000 shares of common stock in connection with grants of incentive stock
options and non-qualified stock options to officers, key employees and outside directors. The
options may be granted at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant and
expire no later than ten years after the date of grant.
The 1995 Graham Corporation Incentive Plan to Increase Shareholder Value provides for the
issuance of up to 384,000 shares of common stock in connection with grants of incentive stock
options and non-qualified stock options to officers, key employees and outside directors. The
options may be granted at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant and
expire no later than ten years after the date of grant. Options can no longer be granted under
this Plan.
As of September 30, 2006, incentives had been awarded in the form of stock options with a term
of ten years from the date of grant. The stock option awards vest over a four-year period. The
Company has elected to use the straight-line method to recognize compensation costs related to such
awards.
During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recognized $25 of stock-based
compensation cost and $10 of related tax benefits reducing net income by $15 and both basic and
diluted earnings per share by $.01. During the six months ended September 30, 2006, the Company
recognized $33 of stock-based compensation cost and $14 of related tax benefits reducing net income
by $19 and basic and diluted earnings per share by $.01 and $0, respectively. Prior to fiscal year
2007, no compensation cost was recognized under stock option plans. During the three and six
months ended September 30, 2005, no options were granted and all previously issued options were
fully vested, therefore, net income as reported and on a pro forma basis were the same. The
Company received cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $28 and $830 in the second
quarter of fiscal year 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $253 and $1,240 in the six months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Company calculated intrinsic value (the amount by which the stock price exceeds the
exercise price of the option) as of September 30, 2006. The Companys closing stock price was
$17.59 as of September 30, 2006. The total intrinsic value of the stock options exercised during
the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was $10 and $1,172, respectively, and was $360
and $1,640 during the six months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The weighted
average fair value of stock options granted in the three and six months ended September 30, 2006
was $7.61 and $6.93, respectively. As of September 30, 2006, there was $376 of total unrecognized
stock-based compensation expense related to non-restricted stock options. The Company expects to
recognize this expense over a weighted average period of 3.68 years. The fair value of each stock
option grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted
average assumptions:
Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||
September 30, 2006 | September 30, 2006 | |||||||
Expected life |
5 years | 5 years | ||||||
Expected volatility |
49.28 | % | 48.44 | % | ||||
Risk-free interest rate |
4.98 | % | 5.03 | % | ||||
Expected dividend yield |
.57 | % | .58 | % |
The expected life represents an estimate of the weighted average period of time that
options are expected to remain outstanding given consideration to vesting schedules and the
Companys historical exercise patterns. Expected volatility is estimated based on the historical
closing prices of the Companys common stock over a period of five years. The risk free interest
rate is estimated based on the U.S. Federal Reserves historical data for the maturity of nominal
treasury instruments that corresponds to the expected term of the option. Expected dividend yield
is based on historical trends.
The Company has a Long-term Incentive Plan (the Plan) which provides for awards of share
equivalent units for outside directors based upon the Companys performance. Each unit is
equivalent to one share of the Companys common stock. Share equivalent units are credited to each
outside directors account for each of the first five full fiscal years of the directors service
when consolidated net income is at least 100% of the approved budgeted net income for the year.
The share equivalent units are payable in cash or stock upon retirement.
Compensation cost for share equivalent units is recorded based on the higher of the quoted
market price of the Companys stock at the end of the period up to $8 per unit or the stock price
at the date of grant. The cost of share equivalent units earned and charged to pre-tax income
under the Plan was $5 and $15 in the three month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005,
respectively, and $20 and $30 in the six month periods ended September 30, 2006 and
9
Table of Contents
2005, respectively. There were 29,773 and 26,421 share equivalent units in the Plan and the
related liability recorded was $297 and $245 at September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The
expense to mark to market the share equivalent units was $0 in each of the three and six month
periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005.
NOTE 3 REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company recognizes revenue on all contracts with a planned manufacturing process in excess
of four weeks (which approximates 575 direct labor hours) using the percentage-of-completion
method. The percentage-of-completion method is determined by comparing actual labor incurred to a
specific date to managements estimate of the total labor to be incurred on each contract.
Contracts in progress are reviewed monthly, and sales and earnings are adjusted in current
accounting periods based on revisions in the contract value and estimated costs at completion.
Losses on contracts are recognized immediately when known. During the three and six months ended
September 30, 2006, a loss of $329 was recognized on a contract in process. During the three and
six months ended September 30, 2005, no loss provisions were recorded.
Revenue on contracts not accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method is recognized
utilizing the completed contract method. The majority of the Companys contracts have a planned
manufacturing process of less than four weeks and the results reported under this method do not
vary materially from the percentage-of-completion method. The Company recognizes revenue and all
related costs on the completed contract method upon substantial completion or shipment of products
to the customer. Substantial completion is consistently defined as at least 95% complete with
regard to direct labor hours. Customer acceptance is generally required throughout the
construction process and the Company has no further material obligations under the contract after
the revenue is recognized.
NOTE 4 INVESTMENTS:
Investments consist of fixed-income debt securities issued by the U.S. Treasury with original
maturities of greater than three months and less than one year. All investments are classified as
held-to-maturity as the Company has the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. The
investments are stated at amortized cost which approximates fair value. All investments held by
the Company at September 30, 2006 are scheduled to mature between October 12 and November 16, 2006.
NOTE 5 INVENTORIES:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the average cost method. For
contracts accounted for on the completed contract method, progress payments received are netted
against inventory to the extent the payment is less than the inventory balance relating to the
applicable contract. Progress payments that are in excess of the corresponding inventory balance
are presented as customer deposits in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unbilled revenue
in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represents revenue recognized that has not been billed
to customers on contracts accounted for on the percentage-of-completion method. For contracts
accounted for on the percentage-of-completion method, progress
10
Table of Contents
payments are netted against unbilled revenue to the extent the payment is less than the unbilled revenue
for the applicable contract. Progress payments exceeding unbilled revenue are netted against
inventory to the extent the payment is less than or equal to the inventory balance relating to the
applicable contract, and the excess is presented as customer deposits in the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets.
Major classifications of inventories are as follows:
September 30, | March 31, | |||||||
2006 | 2006 | |||||||
Raw materials and supplies |
$ | 1,293 | $ | 1,474 | ||||

Total |
$ | 4,687 | $ | 5,115 | ||||
On April 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs. SFAS No. 151
amended Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the
accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted
material, and required that those items be recognized as current period charges. In addition, SFAS
No. 151 required that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based
on the normal capacity of the production facilities. Adoption of SFAS No. 151 did not have an
impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 6 INCOME PER SHARE:
Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Common shares outstanding include share equivalent
units, which are contingently issuable shares. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, when applicable,
potential common shares outstanding during the period. A reconciliation of the numerators and
denominators of basic and diluted income per share is presented below:

The net postretirement benefit income does not include any service cost because the
Company irrevocably terminated postretirement healthcare benefits for its employees in fiscal year
2003. The Company paid benefits of $20 related to its postretirement benefit plan in the first
half of fiscal year 2007. The Company expects to pay benefits of approximately $119 for the
balance of fiscal year 2007.
NOTE 11 OTHER INCOME:
The Company is party to a one year renewable license agreement in which it licenses to a third
party the right to use, market and sell specific licensed products manufactured by the Company.
The agreement contains a provision for royalties payable to the Company based upon sales of the
licensed products by the licensee. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company
earned royalties of $148 in conjunction with this agreement. Future royalty income earned will
depend upon the sales of licensed products by the licensee.
NOTE 12 CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS:
The Company has been named as a defendant in certain lawsuits alleging personal injury from
exposure to asbestos contained in products made by the Company. The Company is a co-defendant with
numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend itself against these
claims. The claims are similar to previous asbestos suits that named the Company as defendant,
which either were dismissed when it was shown that the Company had not supplied products to the
plaintiffs places of work or were settled for minimal amounts below the expected defense costs.
Neither the outcome of these lawsuits nor the potential for liability can be determined at this
time.
From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to legal
proceedings and potential claims. At September 30, 2006, management was unaware of any additional
litigation matters.
In May 2006, the Company completed the formation of a wholly-owned Chinese subsidiary located
in Suzhou and committed to invest an aggregate of $2,100 over a two year period. As of September
30, 2006, the Company had invested $315 in the Chinese subsidiary.

NOTE 13 DEBT:
On June 14, 2006, the Company amended its revolving credit facility agreement to increase the
line of credit from $13,000 to $20,000, of which $12,000 is available for the issuance of letters
of credit. There were no other changes to the terms and conditions of the agreement.
On September 20, 2006, the Company again amended its revolving credit facility to provide for
the banks issuance of bank guarantees rather than letters of credit for the benefit of the
Companys China subsidiary and to set forth the process by which letters of credit and bank
guarantees, as the case may be, are issued by the bank to the Company and its China subsidiary
under the credit facility agreement.
NOTE 14 ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING CHANGES:
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation (FIN)
No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN No. 48 heightens the threshold for
recognizing and measuring tax benefits and requires enterprises to make explicit disclosures about
uncertainties in their income tax positions, including a detailed rollforward of tax benefits taken
that do not qualify for financial statement recognition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact FIN
No. 48 will have on the Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2007. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact SFAS No. 157 will have on the
Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In September 2006, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined
Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of SFAS Nos. 87, 88, 106 and 132R.
SFAS No. 158 requires the recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit
postretirement plan as an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and changes in
that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. The
Statement also requires the funded status of a plan be measured as of the date of its year-end
statement of financial position. SFAS No. 158 is effective for fiscal years ending after December
15, 2006. We are currently evaluating the potential impact SFAS No. 158 will have on our financial
position and cash flows.
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin
(SAB) No. 108 which addresses the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. SAB
108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. Adoption of SAB 108 will not
have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following risk should be read in conjunction with the risks identified by us under the
heading Risk Factors in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31,
2006.
If we are unable to effectively outsource a portion of our production during times when we are
experiencing strong demand, our results of operations might be adversely affected. In addition,
outsourcing may negatively affect our profit margins.
Part of our business strategy calls for us to increase manufacturing capacity through
outsourcing selected fabrication when we are experiencing strong demand for our products. We could
experience difficulty in outsourcing if customers demand that our products be manufactured by us
exclusively. Furthermore, our ability to effectively outsource production could be adversely
affected by limited worldwide manufacturing capacity. If we are unable to effectively outsource
our production capacity when circumstances warrant, our results of operations could be adversely
affected and we might not be able to deliver products to our customers on a timely basis. In
addition, outsourcing to complete our products and
services can increase the costs
associated with such products and services. If we rely too heavily on outsourcing and are not able to
increase our own production capacity during times when there is high demand for our products and
services, our gross margins may be negatively effected.

GRAHAM CORPORATION
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
September 30, 2006
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Overview
Our corporate offices and production facilities are located in Batavia, New York. We have two
wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, one located in the United Kingdom and the other in China. Our
current fiscal year, which we refer to as fiscal 2007, began on April 1, 2006 and ends on March 31,
2007.
We are a designer, manufacturer and worldwide supplier of ejectors, pumps, condensers and heat
exchangers. The principal markets for our equipment are the petrochemical, oil refinery and
electric power generation industries, including cogeneration and geothermal plants. Our equipment
can also be found in diverse applications such as metal refining, pulp and paper processing,
shipbuilding, water heating, refrigeration, desalination, food processing, drugs, heating,
ventilating and air conditioning.
Highlights
Highlights for the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2006 include:
| Net sales for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 2006 were up 13% and 18%, respectively, compared with the quarter and six-month periods ended September 30, 2005. | ||
| Orders for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 2006 were up 72% and 27%, compared with the same respective periods ended September 30, 2005. | ||
| Backlog of $45,000 as of September 30, 2006 was up 50% compared with September 30, 2005. | ||
| Operating margin for the current quarter was 5% compared with 15% for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Operating margins for the six months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 were 8% and 12%, respectively | ||
| Net income and income per diluted share for the current quarter were $563 and $0.14, respectively, compared with net income of $1,350 and income per diluted share of $0.36 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Net income and income per diluted share for the six months ended September 30, 2006 were $1,679 and $0.43, respectively compared with net income of $2,053 and income per diluted share of $0.56 for the same respective periods ended September 30, 2005. |
We believe the principal market drivers that led to increased capital spending and are
contributing to our sales growth include:
| Global consumption of crude oil is estimated to expand significantly over the next 15 years. | ||
| It is generally believed that there is a shortage of global oil refining capacity. | ||
| Known supplies of sweet crude oil are being depleted. Sour crude sources are identified and believed to be plentiful. |
17
Table of Contents
| There is a significant differential in raw material prices for higher quality sweet and lower quality sour crude oil. To lower production costs, many refineries are upgrading facilities in order to be able to process sour crude oil, which requires an upgrade of vacuum and heat transfer equipment. | ||
| New environmental regulations in numerous countries requiring lower sulfur emissions are requiring refineries to upgrade their facilities. | ||
| The expansion of the middle class in Asia is driving increasing demand for power and petrochemical products. | ||
| The high cost of natural gas in North America and Europe is leading to the construction of new petrochemical plants in the Middle East, where natural gas is plentiful and inexpensive. | ||
| There is an increased need in certain regions for geothermal electrical power plants to meet increased electricity demand. |

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Judgments
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based
upon the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to condensed consolidated
financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that reflect significant judgments and
uncertainties, and could potentially result in materially different results under different
assumptions and conditions.
Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue on all contracts with a planned manufacturing
process in excess of four weeks (which approximates 575 direct labor hours) using the
percentage-of-completion method. The percentage-of-completion method is determined by comparing
actual labor incurred to a specific date to our estimate of the total labor to be incurred on each
contract. Contracts in progress are reviewed monthly, and sales and earnings are adjusted in
current accounting periods based on revisions in the contract value and estimated material and
labor costs at completion. Losses on contracts are recognized immediately when known.
Revenue on contracts not accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method is recognized
utilizing the completed contract method. The majority of the contracts we enter into have a
planned manufacturing process of less than four weeks and the results reported under this method do
not vary materially from the percentage-of-completion method. We recognize revenue and all related
costs on the completed contract method upon substantial completion or shipment of products to the
customer. Substantial completion is consistently defined as at least 95% complete with regard to
direct labor hours. Customer acceptance is required throughout the construction process and we
have no further material obligations under the contract after the revenue is recognized.
Pension and Postretirement Benefits. Defined benefit pension and other postretirement
benefit costs and obligations are dependent on actuarial assumptions used in calculating such
amounts. These assumptions are reviewed annually and include the discount rate, long-term expected
rate of return on plan assets, salary growth, healthcare cost trend rate and other economic and
demographic factors. We base the discount rate assumption for our plans on Moodys or Citigroup
Pension Liability Index AA-rated corporate long-term bond yield rate. The long-term expected rate
of return on plan assets is based on the plans asset allocation, historical returns and
expectations as to future returns that are expected to be realized over the estimated remaining
life of the plan liabilities that will be funded with the plan assets. The salary growth
assumptions are determined based on long-term actual experience and future and near-term outlook.
The healthcare cost trend rate assumptions are based on historical cost and payment data, the
near-term outlook, and an assessment of the likely long-term trends.
To the extent that actual results differ from assumptions, the differences are reflected as
unrecognized gains and losses and are amortized to earnings over the estimated future service
period of the plan participants to the extent such total net recognized gains and losses exceed 10%
of the greater of the plans projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of assets.
Significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in future assumptions would
affect pension and postretirement benefit costs and obligations.
Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of events have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. Deferred
income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial
statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using current tax rates. We evaluate available
information about future taxable income and other possible sources of realization of deferred
income tax assets and record valuation allowances to reduce deferred income tax assets
19
Table of Contents
to an amount
that represents our best estimates of the amounts of such deferred income tax assets that more
likely than not will be realized.
Stock-Based Compensation. We account for stock-based employee compensation at fair value of
the awards on the grant date and recognize the related cost in our statements of operations and
retained earnings in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which we adopted
effective April 1, 2006 utilizing the modified prospective method. Previously we accounted for our
stock-based employee compensation grants under the recognition and measurement principles of
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its
related interpretations. We estimate the fair values of stock options using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model. See Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Results of Operations
For an understanding of the significant factors that influenced our performance during the
three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, the following
discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and
the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
The following table summarizes our results of operations for the periods indicated.

Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 were $15,903, a 13% increase, as compared
with $14,044 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Net sales for the six months ended
September 30, 2006 were $30,511 compared with $25,793 for the six months ended September 30, 2005,
an 18% increase. Condenser sales for the current quarter and six-month period ended September 30,
2006 increased 66% and 60%, respectively, compared with the same respective periods ended September
30, 2005. Sales of condenser products increased primarily as a result of capacity expansion
projects in the petrochemical market. Ejector sales for the current quarter decreased 30% over the
quarter ended September 30, 2005 and 14% for the six months ended September 30, 2006 compared with
the six months ended September 30, 2005. We believe the decrease in ejector sales experienced in
fiscal 2007 to date compared with fiscal 2006 will reverse itself in future reporting periods based
on the strength of ejector orders being received and anticipated. See Orders and Backlog for
additional market information. Heat exchanger sales (i.e., Heliflows, plate exchangers and
MicroMix products) and after market sales, which together represented 31% of our total sales for
the quarter and 32% for the six-month period, increased 53% and 22% compared with the quarter and
six-month periods, respectively, ended September 30, 2005. Our heat exchangers are used for a
variety of applications including heating, cooling, condensing or boiling fluids in applications
such as steam generators, compressors, natural gas heaters, supercritical water oxidation, waste
heat recovery and thermal storage systems. Increases in heat exchanger sales resulted primarily
from strategic initiatives taken in prior periods to establish new sales channels.
Our gross profit percentages (i.e., sales, less costs of sales, divided by sales) for the
quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 were 20% and 33%, respectively. For the six- month
periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, our gross profit percentages were 24% and 31%,
respectively. Gross profit for the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2006
20
Table of Contents
decreased
$1,405 and $625, respectively, compared with the same periods ended September 30, 2005. Gross
profit percentages and dollars decreased due to greater material costs, higher
employment costs, including greater contract engineering costs to meet increased orders in the
first half of fiscal 2007, production inefficiencies and a $329 provision for a loss estimated on a
job in process. This job, for $2.8 million, is projected to result in a loss due to the
significant increase in costs we experienced subsequent to accepting the order, which was initially
taken at a low profit margin. Gross profit percentages are projected to be reduced about 2
percentage points in the second half of fiscal 2007 because we do not anticipate any profit or loss
from sales recognized on this contract in the third or fourth quarters of fiscal 2007. We do not
believe any other order in our backlog at September 30, 2006 will result in a loss. We project
continued pressure on gross margins because of increasing materials, labor and benefit costs. In
addition, given the sales opportunities we believe exist in Asia and elsewhere, we have
strategically increased our emphasis in those markets. Although we believe that such markets are
likely to have lower margin potential because of their specific economic climates, we believe that
the expansion of our operations into these markets will provide us with long-term benefits,
including expanding our customer base.
Due to increased sales and cost reduction programs addressing spending for advertising, travel
and entertainment and sales meetings, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 15%
of sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared with 18% for the three months ended
September 30, 2005. For the current quarter, compared with the quarter ended September 30, 2005,
expenses were down 6%. For the six months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, selling, general and
administrative expenses were 16% and 19%, respectively, of net sales. Expenses for the six months
ended September 30, 2006, compared with the six months ended September 30, 2005, were up 1% due to
increased employee costs.
Other income for the current quarter was $0 and for the six months ended September 30, 2006
was $148 compared with $0 for the same periods ended September 30, 2005. Royalty income of $148
was earned under a one-year renewable license agreement we entered into in October 2005 that allows
the licensee to use, market and sell specific products we manufacture. Future royalty income earned
will depend upon the sales of licensed products by the licensee.
Interest expense was $2 for the current quarter and $4 for the quarter ended September 30,
2005. For the six months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, interest expense was $6 and $9,
respectively. Interest expense decreased due to reduced debt.
The effective income tax rates for the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2006
were 32% and 37%, respectively, compared with 35% for each of the three and six-month periods ended
September 30, 2005. The effective tax rate projected for fiscal 2007 is 37% compared with the
final effective tax rate for fiscal 2006 of 38%. The effective tax rate recognized through the six
months ended September 30, 2006 takes into account projected credits anticipated for the current
fiscal year.
Net income for the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2006 was $563 and $1,679,
respectively. Income per diluted share was $0.14 and $0.43 for the same respective periods. For
the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2005 net income and diluted income per share
were $1,350 and $0.36, and $2,053 and $0.56, respectively.

Net cash used by operating activities for the current six-month period was $2,681,
compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $7,658 for the six months ended
September 30, 2005. The change for the current six month period was due to increased working
capital needs. In particular, there was a significant increase in trade accounts receivables and
unbilled revenue in the current six-month period compared with the six months ended September 30,
2005. These increases were due to greater major project work sales and progress payment terms
negotiated on a few contracts. Additionally, we used $2,000 in cash to fund our defined benefit
pension plan as the plan moved toward full funding status as measured on the projected benefit
obligation method.
We invest net cash generated from operations in excess of cash held for near-term needs in
marketable securities. Investments are U.S. government instruments, generally with maturity
periods of 91 to 120 days. Investments at September 30, 2006 compared with investments at March
31, 2006 decreased $2,950 to finance working capital needs and a $2,000 contribution to our pension
fund.
Other sources of cash for the six months ended September 30, 2006 included the issuance of
common stock to cover stock options exercised, which raised $253, as compared with $1,240 in the
six months ended September 30, 2005, $15 in proceeds for the sale of capital assets as compared to
$1 for the six months ended September 30, 2005 and repayments of notes outstanding for purchases of
common stock granted under our Long-Term Stock Ownership Plan of $13. In the first six months of
fiscal 2005, $50 was collected for note repayments under such plan.
Other uses of cash for the six months ended September 30, 2006 included dividend payments of
$193 and capital expenditures of $668 compared to $171 and $480, respectively, for the six months
ended September 30, 2005. During the six months ended September 30, 2006, we borrowed and repaid
$2,479 to finance working capital needs. Cash was also used to retire short-term debt of $1,872 in
the six-month period ended September 30, 2005.
Capital expenditures for fiscal 2007 are projected to be between $1,400 and $1,800, and to
consist largely of plant productivity and information technology enhancements.

On June 14, 2006, we increased our credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. from $13,000 to
$20,000. We expanded our credit capacity based on our expectations of future working capital needs
to finance business growth, largely resulting from an expected increase in major project work
overseas requiring both standby letters of credit and anticipated greater working capital needs
relating to higher sales and rising material costs. Borrowings under our banking facility are
secured by all of our assets. Borrowings and standby letters of credit outstanding under our credit
facility on September 30, 2006 were $0 and $8,570, respectively. Our borrowing rate as of September
30, 2006 was the prime rate minus 1%, or 7.25%. We believe that cash generated from operations,
combined with available financing capacity under our credit facility, will be adequate to meet our
cash needs for the immediate future.
Orders and Backlog
Orders for the current quarter were $22,125 compared with $12,833 for the quarter ended
September 30, 2005, an increase of 72%. The current quarter increase was primarily due to
increased condenser orders of $1,673 and ejector orders of $6,478. Increased condenser and ejector
orders were due to the increased demands in major project work in the petrochemical and refinery
sectors. Orders for the six months ended September 30, 2006 were $42,157 compared with $33,258 for
the six months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 27%. Ejector orders were up $8,145 for
fiscal 2007 compared with 2006. The increased ejector activity is largely due to major project
work in the refinery sector worldwide. Orders for Asia were up $9,004 for the first six months of
fiscal 2007 compared with the six months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in orders from
this area of the world reflects the strong Asian economies, particularly in their refinery sector.
Orders represent communications received from customers for the supply of our products and
services.
Backlog was $45,000 at September 30, 2006, compared with $30,002 at September 30, 2005, a 50%
increase. Backlog is defined as the total dollar value of orders received for which revenue has
not yet been recognized. All orders in backlog represent orders from our traditional markets in
established product lines that are scheduled to be shipped in the next twelve months.
Approximately 47% of our backlog can be attributed to equipment for refinery project work, 30% to
chemical and petrochemical projects, 5% to equipment sold to the power generation sector and 18% to
other industrial or commercial applications. We believe that the demand coming from the refinery
sector for our products is being driven by the shortages of refinery capacity resulting from
increased usage of oil in China and India, the need to upgrade existing refineries so that they can
use lower cost, high sulfur heavier sour crude, and the need to revamp refineries to meet
environmental regulations in numerous countries pertaining to diesel fuel sulfur content
requirements. Most refineries presently in operation can only process light, sweet (i.e., low
sulfur) crude, which is less abundant and more expensive than heavier sour crude. Increase in
capacity in the petrochemical sector is being driven by greater worldwide demand for, and
consumption of, oil and natural gas by-products.
Contingencies and Commitments
We have been named as a defendant in certain lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure
to asbestos contained in our products. We are a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in
these lawsuits and intend to vigorously defend against these claims. The claims are similar to
previous asbestos lawsuits that named us as a defendant. Such previous lawsuits either were
dismissed when it was shown that we had not supplied products to the plaintiffs places of work or
were settled for minimal amounts below expected defense costs. Neither the outcome of these
lawsuits nor the potential for liability can be determined at this time.
From time to time in the ordinary course of business, we are subject to legal proceedings and
potential claims. As of September 30, 2006, we were unaware of any additional pending litigation
matters.

In May 2006, we completed the formation of a wholly-owned Chinese subsidiary located in Suzhou
and committed to invest an aggregate of $2,100 over a two-year period. Through September 30, 2006
we have invested $315 in China.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Effective April 1, 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No.
123(R), Shared-Based Payments. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that all share-based payments to
employees, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the financial statements
based on their fair values. We decided to use the Black-Scholes fair value model to value option
grants and to adopt the modified prospective method for expense recognition of options granted as
of the adoption date of April 1, 2006. The effect of adopting SFAS 123(R) to our condensed
consolidated statements of operations and retained earnings for the six months ended September 30,
2006 was a decrease in net income of $19.
Effective April 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs. SFAS No. 151 amends
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the accounting for
abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials. SFAS No.
151 requires that those items be recognized as current period charges regardless of whether they
meet the criterion of abnormal contained in such statement. In addition, SFAS No. 151 requires
that allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal
capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 became effective for inventory costs incurred
after April 1, 2006. Adoption of SFAS No. 151 did not have an impact on our financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes. FIN No. 48 heightens the threshold for recognizing and measuring tax benefits and
requires enterprises to make explicit disclosures about uncertainties in their income tax
positions, including a detailed roll forward of tax benefits taken that do not qualify for
financial statement recognition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2006. We are currently evaluating the potential impact this Interpretation will have on our
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted
accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the
potential impact SFAS No. 157 will have on our financial position, results of operations and cash
flows.
In September 2006, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined
Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of SFAS Nos. 87, 88, 106 and 132R.
SFAS No. 158 requires the recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit
postretirement plan as an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and changes in
that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. The
Statement also requires the funded status of a plan be measured as of the date of its year-end
statement of financial position. SFAS No. 158 is effective for fiscal years ending after
December 15, 2006. We are currently evaluating the potential impact SFAS No. 158 will have on
our financial position and cash flows.
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin
(SAB) No. 108 which addresses the process of quantifying financial statement
24
Table of Contents
misstatements. SAB
108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. Adoption of SAB 108 will not
have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2006 or 2005,
respectively, other than operating leases.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from changes in market rates
and prices) to which we are exposed are:
| foreign currency exchange rates; | ||
| equity price risk (related to our Long-Term Incentive Plan); and | ||
| gross margin risk. |
The assumptions applied in preparing the following qualitative and quantitative disclosures
regarding foreign currency exchange rate and equity price risk are based upon volatility ranges
experienced by us in relevant historical periods, our current knowledge of the marketplace, and our
judgment of the probability of future volatility based upon the historical trends and economic
conditions of the markets in which we operate.
Foreign Currency
International consolidated sales for both the three and six-month periods ended September 30,
2006 were 59% of total sales compared with 50% and 51% for the three and six-month periods ended
September 30, 2005, respectively. Operating in markets throughout the world, as we do, exposes us
to movements in currency exchange rates. Currency movements can affect sales in several ways, the
foremost being our ability to compete for orders against foreign competitors that base their prices
on relatively weaker currencies. Business lost due to competition for orders against competitors
using a relatively weaker currency cannot be quantified. Secondly, cash can be adversely impacted
by the conversion of sales made by us in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars. In each of the
six-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, we had no sales for which we were paid in
foreign currencies. At certain times, we may enter into forward foreign currency exchange
agreements to hedge our exposure against potential unfavorable changes in foreign currency values
on significant sales contracts negotiated in foreign currencies.
We have limited exposure to foreign currency purchases. For the three month periods ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005, purchases in foreign currencies represented 4% and 1%,
respectively, of the cost of products sold. For the six month periods ended September 30, 2006 and
2005, purchases in foreign currencies represented 3% and 1%, respectively, of the cost of products
sold. At certain times, we may utilize forward foreign currency exchange contracts to limit
currency exposure.
At September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, we held no forward foreign currency exchange
contracts.

Equity Price Risk
Our Long-Term Incentive Plan provides for awards of share equivalent units (SEUs) for our
non-employee directors based upon the performance of our common stock. SEUs are valued at fair
market value, thereby exposing us to equity price risk. Upward adjustment to market value is
limited to (a) $8 per unit if at the valuation date the fair market value was less than $8 per unit
or (b) the fair market value at the valuation date if the fair market value on that date was
greater than $8 per unit. Gains and losses recognized due to market price changes are included in
results of operations. Based upon the plan provisions and SEUs outstanding at September 30, 2006
and 2005, and $20 per share price, a 50-75% change in the year-end common stock market price would
positively or (negatively) impact income before income taxes as follows:

Assuming required net income targets are met, certain awards would be provided, and based upon
a market price of $20 per share, a 50-75% change in the stock price would positively (negatively)
impact income before income taxes in future years ending March 31 as follows:

Gross Margin Risk
Operating in a global marketplace requires us to compete with other global manufacturers
which, in some instances, benefit from lower product costs and favorable foreign exchange rates.
Currently we are experiencing rising employment costs and unpredictable material costs,
particularly fluctuating metal costs, used to build our products. As a result, we may encounter
greater pricing pressures that prevent us from fully covering escalating costs.
The rapid expansion in the oil and natural gas markets is also expanding our potential
customer base. This new customer base may be more cost sensitive as opposed to product value
oriented, which in turn could lead to lower gross margins. To mitigate these pressures, in
addition to establishing a base of operations in China through the formation of a wholly-owned
Chinese subsidiary, among other things, we are exploring alternative manufacturing models,
26

increasing investments in information technology to improve productivity, instituting cost
reduction programs and adopting lean manufacturing principles.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures
Our president and chief operating officer (principal executive officer) and our vice
president of finance and administration and chief financial officer (principal financial officer)
