HEICO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of HEICO Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “HEICO,” or the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012. The October 31, 2012 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of shareholders' equity and statements of cash flows for such interim periods presented. The results of operations for the six months ended April 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which requires the presentation of total comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of shareholders’ equity. The Company adopted ASU 2011-05 in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and elected to make the presentation in two separate, but consecutive statements, which had no impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” which is intended to reduce the complexity and cost of performing a quantitative test for impairment of goodwill by permitting an entity the option to perform a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment in order to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The update also improves previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, or in

fiscal 2013 for HEICO's annual impairment test. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which requires disclosure about changes in and amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012, or in fiscal 2014 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity,” which clarifies the applicable guidance for the release of any cumulative translation adjustments into net earnings. ASU 2013-05 specifies that the entire amount of cumulative translation adjustments should be released into earnings when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a consolidated foreign entity and the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013, or in fiscal 2015 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

2.    ACQUISITIONS

Additional Purchase Consideration

Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreements related to certain fiscal 2012 acquisitions, the Company was obligated to pay additional purchase consideration representing the difference between the actual net assets of the acquired entity as of the acquisition date and the amount estimated in the purchase agreement. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company paid $1.2 million of such additional purchase consideration, which was accrued as of October 31, 2012.

Accrued Customer Rebates and Credits

The aggregate amount of accrued customer rebates and credits included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $12.7 million and $10.8 million as of April 30, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively. The total customer rebates and credits deducted within net sales for the six months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012 was $3.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The total customer rebates and credits deducted within net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012 was $2.1 million and $.7 million, respectively. The increase in customer rebates and credits is principally due to the fact that the first six months and second quarter of fiscal 2012 reflected a reduction in the net sales volume of certain customers eligible for rebates as well as a reduction in associated rebate percentages.

As of April 30, 2013 and October 31, 2012, the weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility was 1.3% and 1.2%, respectively. The revolving credit facility contains both financial and non-financial covenants. As of April 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.




11

Index

In December 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of its revolving credit facility by one year to December 2017. The Company also amended certain covenants contained within the revolving credit facility agreement to accommodate payment of a special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012. See Note 8, Shareholders' Equity, for additional information. Costs aggregating $.6 million were incurred in connection with the amendments and are included in other assets within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and are being amortized to selling, general and administrative expenses within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations over the remaining term of the revolving credit facility.


6.    INCOME TAXES
As of April 30, 2013, the Company’s liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions was $2.0 million of which $1.3 million would decrease the Company’s income tax expense and effective income tax rate if the tax benefits were recognized. A reconciliation of the activity related to the liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits for the six months ended April 30, 2013 is as follows (in thousands):

$1,955


The settlements and decreases related to prior year tax positions pertain to a state income tax position regarding nexus that was originally recognized in fiscal 2012 and resolved through the filing of state income tax returns in fiscal 2013. The accrual of interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits was not material for the six months ended April 30, 2013. Further, the Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to materially change in the next twelve months.

The Company's effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2013 decreased to 31.3% from 34.5% for the first six months of fiscal 2012. The decrease is principally due to an income tax credit for qualified research and development activities for the last ten months of fiscal 2012 that was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 pursuant to the retroactive extension of Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code, "Credit for Increasing Research Activities," in January 2013 to cover a two-year period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. As a result, the Company recognized an additional $1.6 million of research and development tax credits in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in the effective tax rate was also attributed to an income tax deduction under Section 404(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock. See Note 8, Shareholders' Equity, for additional information.




12

Index

The Company's effective tax rate in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased to 34.1% from 34.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease is principally due to the aforementioned income tax deduction under Section 404(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock. Additionally, the effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 reflects a benefit resulting from the retroactive extension of the research and development tax credit.

The Company maintains two non-qualified deferred compensation plans. The assets of the HEICO Corporation Leadership Compensation Plan (the “LCP”) represent cash surrender values of life insurance policies, which derive their fair values from investments in mutual funds that are managed by an insurance company and are classified within Level 2 and valued using a market approach. The assets of the Company’s other deferred compensation plan are invested in equity securities, mutual funds and money market funds that are classified within Level 1. The assets of both plans are held within irrevocable trusts and classified within other assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and have an aggregate value of $51.7 million as of April 30, 2013 and $41.3 million as of October 31, 2012, of which the LCP related assets were $47.1 million and $37.1 million as of April 30, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively. The related liabilities of the two deferred compensation plans are included within other long-term liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and have an aggregate value of $51.0 million as of April 30, 2013 and $40.8 million as of October 31, 2012, of which the LCP related liability was $46.4 million and $36.5 million as of April 30, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively.

As part of the agreement to acquire a subsidiary by the ETG in fiscal 2012, the Company may be obligated to pay contingent consideration of up to $14.6 million in aggregate should the acquired entity meet certain earnings objectives during each of the first five years following the the acquisition. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration as of April 30, 2013 is $9.7 million and classified within Level 3, of which $.6 million is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and the remaining $9.1 million is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The $.6 million included in current liabilities represents the amount of contingent consideration payable based on the actual earnings of the acquired entity during the first year following the acquisition and is expected to be paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2013. The $9.1 million estimated fair value of the contingent consideration included in long-term liabilities was determined using a probability-based scenario analysis approach. Under this method, a set of discrete potential future subsidiary earnings was



14

Index

determined using internal estimates based on various revenue growth rate assumptions for each scenario that ranged from a compound annual growth rate of negative 4% to positive 20%. A probability of likelihood was assigned to each discrete potential future earnings estimate and a corresponding contingent consideration was calculated. The resulting probability-weighted contingent consideration amounts were discounted using a weighted average discount rate of 2.75% reflecting the credit risk of a market participant. Significant changes to either the revenue growth rates, related earnings or the discount rate could result in a material change to the amount of contingent consideration accrued and such changes will be recorded in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The $1.2 million decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration since October 31, 2012 is principally attributed to lower year one actual earnings and year two forecasted earnings of the subsidiary due to reductions in United States defense spending and was recorded to selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during the six months ended April 30, 2013.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value as of April 30, 2013 due to the relatively short maturity of the respective instruments. The carrying amount of long-term debt approximates fair value due to its variable interest rates.


8.    SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

During the six months ended April 30, 2013, the Company repurchased an aggregate 29,083 shares of Common Stock at a total cost of $1.3 million and an aggregate 31,972 shares of Class A Common Stock at a total cost of $1.1 million. The transactions occurred as settlement for employee taxes due pertaining to exercises of non-qualified stock options and did not impact the number of shares authorized for future purchase under the Company’s share repurchase program.

In December 2012, the Company paid a special and extraordinary $2.14 per share cash dividend on both classes of HEICO common stock as well as a regular semi-annual $.06 per



15

Index

share cash dividend that was accelerated from January 2013. The dividends, which aggregated $116.6 million, were funded from borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility.


9.    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

Cost of sales for the six months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012 includes approximately $15.0 million and $14.9 million, respectively, of new product research and development expenses. Cost of sales for the three months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012 includes approximately $7.7 million and $8.4 million, respectively, of new product research and development expenses.


10.    REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

The holders of equity interests in certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have rights (“Put Rights”) that may be exercised on varying dates causing the Company to purchase their equity interests through fiscal 2022. The Put Rights, all of which relate either to common shares or membership interests in limited liability companies, provide that the cash consideration to be paid for their equity interests (the “Redemption Amount”) be at fair value or at a formula that management intended to reasonably approximate fair value based solely on a multiple of future earnings over a measurement period. As of April 30, 2013, management’s estimate of the aggregate Redemption Amount of all Put Rights that the Company would be required to pay is approximately $51 million. The actual Redemption Amount will likely be different. The aggregate Redemption Amount of all Put Rights was determined using probability adjusted internal estimates of future earnings of the Company’s subsidiaries with Put Rights while considering the earliest exercise date, the measurement period and any applicable fair value adjustments. The portion of the estimated Redemption Amount as of April 30, 2013 redeemable at fair value is approximately $42 million and the portion redeemable based solely on a multiple of future earnings is approximately $9 million. Adjustments to Redemption Amounts based on fair value will have no affect on net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders whereas the portion of periodic adjustments to the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests based solely on a multiple of future earnings that reflect a redemption amount in excess of fair value will affect net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders.

In December 2012, the Company, through its HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. ("HEICO Aerospace") subsidiary, acquired the remaining 13.3% interest in one of its subsidiaries. The purchase price of the redeemable noncontrolling interest acquired was paid using proceeds from the Company's revolving credit facility.

13.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Guarantees

The Company has arranged for a standby letter of credit in the amount of $1.5 million to meet the security requirement of its insurance company for potential workers’ compensation claims, which is supported by the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Product Warranty

The decrease in the Company's warranty accrual for the six months ended April 30, 2013 is principally attributed to the partial reversal of a previous accrual for which potential warranty claims did not materialize.

Litigation

The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Based upon the Company’s and its legal counsel’s evaluations of any claims or assessments, management is of the opinion that the outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.


14.    SUBSEQUENT EVENT
    
In May 2013, the Company announced that its HEICO Flight Support Corp. subsidiary had entered into an agreement to effectively acquire all of the outstanding stock of Reinhold Industries, Inc. (“Reinhold”) for approximately $130 million in a transaction that will be carried out by means of a merger. Closing, which is subject to governmental approval and standard closing conditions, is expected to occur in the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Reinhold is a leading manufacturer of advanced niche components and complex composite assemblies for commercial aviation, defense and space applications. The purchase price of this acquisition is expected to be paid in cash, principally using proceeds from the Company's revolving credit facility.

Item 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview

This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates if different assumptions were used or different events ultimately transpire.

Our critical accounting policies, which require management to make judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, are described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended April 30, 2013.

Our business is comprised of two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”), consisting of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. (“HEICO Aerospace”) and HEICO Flight Support Corp. and their collective subsidiaries, and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”), consisting of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. (“HEICO Electronic”) and its subsidiaries.

Our results of operations for the six and three months ended April 30, 2013 have been affected by the fiscal 2012 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012.

Comparison of First Six Months of Fiscal 2013 to First Six Months of Fiscal 2012

Net Sales

Our net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2013 increased by 6% to a record $454.2 million, as compared to net sales of $429.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2012. The increase in net sales reflects an increase of $14.3 million (a 5% increase) to a record $294.2 million within the FSG as well as an increase of $12.0 million (an 8% increase) to a record $162.8 million in net sales within the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects additional net sales of $7.4 million from fiscal 2012 acquisitions as well as organic growth of approximately 2%. The organic growth in the FSG principally reflects an increase in demand from improving market conditions resulting in net sales increases of $6.0 million within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul services product lines and $.9 million within our specialty products lines. Consistent with previous guidance, we continue to remain confident in the outlook for the commercial airline industry and expect increases in airline capacity and maintenance spending to yield moderate organic growth within the FSG for the remainder of fiscal 2013. The net sales increase in the ETG results from organic growth of approximately 5% as well as additional net sales of $4.9 million from fiscal 2012 acquisitions. The organic growth in the ETG principally reflects an increase in demand for certain of our space products resulting in an $11.2 million increase in net sales partially offset by a decrease in demand for certain of our defense products resulting in a $4.2 million decrease in net sales. Uncertainty surrounding the impact of governmental budget reductions has continued to soften the market for certain defense products and remained a contributing factor in the decline in sales of certain of the ETG's defense products during the first six months of fiscal 2013. Despite these market conditions, we continue to anticipate that improving demand for our non-defense products will drive moderate organic growth within the ETG for the remainder of fiscal 2013. Sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the ETG and FSG net sales growth in the first six months of fiscal 2013.
Gross Profit and Operating Expenses
Our consolidated gross profit margin improved to 36.8% for the first six months of fiscal 2013 as compared to 35.8% for the first six months of fiscal 2012, principally reflecting a 2.5% increase in the ETG's gross profit margin. The increase in the ETG's gross profit margin is primarily attributed to increased net sales and a more favorable product mix for certain of our space products partially offset by lower net sales and a less favorable product mix for certain of our defense products. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales increased slightly from $14.9 million in the first six months of fiscal 2012 to $15.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2013.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $87.4 million and $78.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively. The increase in SG&A expenses reflects an increase of $6.3 million in general and administrative expenses of which $3.2 million is attributed to the fiscal 2012 acquired businesses and the remainder to support the higher net sales volumes including an increase in accrued performance awards based



22

Index

on improved consolidated operating results. Additionally, the increase in SG&A expenses reflects an increase of $2.9 million in selling expenses principally due to higher sales-related commissions and other costs resulting from the net sales growth. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased from 18.2% for the first six months of fiscal 2012 to 19.2% for the first six months of fiscal 2013 principally reflecting the impact from the previously mentioned increase in accrued performance awards, sales-related commissions and costs as well as the impact associated with amortization expense of intangible assets recognized in connection with the acquired businesses.
Operating Income
Operating income for the first six months of fiscal 2013 increased by 5.8% to a record $79.6 million as compared to operating income of $75.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income reflects a $4.3 million increase (a 14% increase) to a record $35.8 million in operating income of the ETG for the first six months of fiscal 2013, up from $31.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2012 and a $2.4 million increase (a 5% increase) in operating income of the FSG to a record $54.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2013, up from $52.1 million for the first six months of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income of the ETG was driven mainly by the previously mentioned increase in net sales and improved gross profit margin. The increase in the operating income of the FSG mainly reflects the previously mentioned increase in net sales.
As a percentage of net sales, our consolidated operating income was 17.5% for both the first six months of fiscal 2013 and 2012.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the first six months of fiscal 2013 was $1.4 million, up slightly from $1.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2012. The increase was principally due to a higher weighted average balance outstanding under our revolving credit facility in the first six months of fiscal 2013 associated with recent acquisitions and borrowings made to fund an aggregate $2.20 per share cash dividend paid in December 2012.
Other Income
Other income in the first six months of fiscal 2013 and 2012 was not material.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2013 decreased to 31.3% from 34.5% for the first six months of fiscal 2012. The decrease is principally due to an income tax credit for qualified research and development activities for the last ten months of fiscal 2012 that was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 pursuant to the retroactive extension of Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code, "Credit for Increasing Research Activities," in January 2013 to cover a two-year period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. As a result, we recognized an additional $1.6 million of research and development tax credits in the first quarter of fiscal



23

Index

2013 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in the effective tax rate was also attributed to an income tax deduction under Section 404(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock. See Liquidity and Capital Resources of this Item 2.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling
interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in the FSG and the noncontrolling interests held by others
in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests
was $10.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2013 compared to $10.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2012. The decrease for the first six months of fiscal 2013 principally reflects our purchases of certain noncontrolling interests during fiscal 2012 and 2013 resulting in lower allocations of net income to noncontrolling interests partially offset by higher earnings of certain FSG and ETG subsidiaries during the first six months of fiscal 2013.

Net Income Attributable to HEICO
Net income attributable to HEICO increased to a record $43.7 million, or $.82 per diluted share, for the first six months of fiscal 2013 from $38.2 million, or $.72 per diluted share, for the first six months of fiscal 2012, principally reflecting the increased operating income referenced above and the favorable tax benefits recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2013.

Comparison of Second Quarter of Fiscal 2013 to Second Quarter of Fiscal 2012
Net Sales
Our net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 increased by 10% to $237.7 million, as compared to net sales of $216.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in net sales reflects an increase of $14.2 million (a 10% increase) to a record $155.2 million within the FSG as well as an increase of $7.7 million (a 10% increase) to $83.9 million in net sales within the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects organic growth of approximately 7% as well as additional net sales of $3.9 million from fiscal 2012 acquisitions. The organic growth in the FSG principally reflects an increase in demand from improving market conditions resulting in net sales increases of $7.9 million within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul services product lines and $2.4 million within our specialty products lines. The net sales increase in the ETG results from organic growth of approximately 9% as well as additional net sales of $.7 million from fiscal 2012 acquisitions. The organic growth in the ETG principally reflects an increase in demand for certain of our space products resulting in a $6.8 million increase in net sales partially offset by a decrease in demand for certain of our defense products resulting in a $1.9 million decrease in net sales. Sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the ETG and FSG net sales growth in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.



24

Index

Gross Profit and Operating Expenses
Our consolidated gross profit margin improved to 37.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to 34.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2012, reflecting a 5.9% and 1.2% increase in the ETG's and FSG's gross profit margin, respectively. The increase in the ETG's gross profit margin is primarily attributed to increased net sales and a more favorable product mix for certain of our space products partially offset by lower net sales and a less favorable product mix for certain of our defense products. The increase in the FSG’s gross profit margin reflects the aggregate benefit of higher net sales and a more favorable product mix within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul services product lines as well as higher net sales within our specialty products lines. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales was $7.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $8.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $44.8 million and $37.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively. The increase in SG&A expenses reflects an increase of $5.5 million in general and administrative expenses of which $1.2 million is attributed to the fiscal 2012 acquired businesses and the remainder to support the higher net sales volumes including an increase in accrued performance awards based on improved consolidated operating results. Additionally, the increase in SG&A expenses reflects an increase of $1.7 million in selling expenses principally due to higher sales-related commissions and other costs resulting from the net sales growth. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased from 17.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to 18.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 principally reflecting the impact from the previously mentioned increase in accrued performance awards and sales-related commissions and costs.
Operating Income
Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 increased by 19% to $44.7 million as compared to operating income of $37.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income reflects a $4.9 million increase (a 32% increase) to $20.2 million in operating income of the ETG for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, up from $15.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and a $3.7 million increase (a 14% increase) in operating income of the FSG to a record $30.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, up from $26.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income of the ETG principally reflects the previously mentioned increase in net sales and improved gross profit margin. The increase in the operating income of the FSG principally reflects the previously mentioned increase in net sales and improved gross profit margin.
As a percentage of net sales, our consolidated operating income increased to 18.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, up from 17.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales reflects an increase in the ETGs operating income as a percentage of net sales from 20.1% for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to 24.1% for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and an increase in the FSG's operating income as a percentage of net sales from 18.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to 19.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The increases in operating income as a percentage of net sales



25

Index

for the ETG and FSG are principally attributed to the previously mentioned improved gross profit margins partially offset by increases in SG&A expense as a percentage of net sales.
Interest Expense
Interest expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was $.8 million, up slightly from $.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase was principally due to a higher weighted average balance outstanding under our revolving credit facility in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 associated with recent acquisitions and borrowings made to fund an aggregate $2.20 per share cash dividend paid in December 2012.
Other Income and Expense
Other income and expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012 was not material.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased to 34.1% from 34.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease is principally due to an income tax deduction under Section 404(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock. See Liquidity and Capital Resources of this Item 2. Additionally, the effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 reflects a benefit resulting from the retroactive extension of the research and development tax credit as discussed further within the Comparison of First Six Months of Fiscal 2013 to First Six Months of Fiscal 2012 within this Item 2.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in the FSG and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $5.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $5.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 principally reflects higher earnings of certain FSG and ETG subsidiaries during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 partially offset by purchases of certain noncontrolling interests during fiscal 2013 resulting in lower allocations of net income to noncontrolling interests.

Net Income Attributable to HEICO
Net income attributable to HEICO increased to $23.7 million, or $.44 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 from $19.0 million, or $.36 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2012, principally reflecting the increased operating income referenced above.

Index

Outlook
Consistent with previous guidance, we expect continued commercial airline capacity growth to further drive increased demand for products and services within our Flight Support Group. Additionally, we generally anticipate stable demand for most of our Electronic Technologies Group's products, but acknowledge that uncertainty surrounding the impact of governmental budget reductions may continue to soften the market for certain defense products over the remainder of fiscal 2013. Based on our current market outlook, we are estimating full year fiscal 2013 year-over-year growth in net sales of 8% to 10% and growth in net income of 11% to 13%. These estimates include the impact of the pending Reinhold Industries, Inc. acquisition, as discussed further within Contractual Obligations of this Item 2, but exclude any other potential acquisition opportunities during the remainder of fiscal 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal uses of cash include acquisitions, cash dividends, capital expenditures, distributions to noncontrolling interests and working capital needs. Capital expenditures in fiscal 2013 are anticipated to approximate $20 million.

In December 2012, we entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of our revolving credit facility by one year to December 2017. We also amended certain covenants contained within the revolving credit facility agreement to accommodate payment of a special and extraordinary cash dividend. In December 2012, we paid a special and extraordinary $2.14 per share cash dividend on both classes of our common stock as well as our regular semi-annual $.06 per share cash dividend that was accelerated from January 2013. The dividends, which aggregated $116.6 million, were funded from borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

We finance our activities primarily from our operating activities and financing activities, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility contains both financial and non-financial covenants. As of April 30, 2013, we were in compliance with all such covenants. As of April 30, 2013, our net debt to shareholders’ equity ratio was 32.1%, with net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) of $211.7 million.

Based on our current outlook, we believe that our net cash provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $44.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2013 and consisted primarily of net income from consolidated operations of $54.0 million and depreciation and amortization of $16.4 million (a non-cash item) partially offset by an increase in working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) of $27.7 million. The increase in working capital was principally attributed to increases in accounts receivable and inventory as a result of net sales growth during the period. Net cash provided by operating



27

Index

activities decreased slightly by $.8 million from $45.3 million for the first six months of fiscal 2012.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $10.5 million during the first six months of fiscal 2013 and related primarily to capital expenditures and additional purchase consideration for certain fiscal 2012 acquisitions totaling $9.3 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2013 totaled $38.6 million and related primarily to $116.6 million in cash dividends on our common stock, acquisitions of noncontrolling interests of $16.6 million, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $4.5 million and redemptions of common stock related to stock option exercises of $2.4 million, partially offset by net borrowings on our revolving credit facility of $97.0 million and the presentation of $5.1 million of excess tax benefit from stock option exercises as a financing activity.
Contractual Obligations
Except as otherwise noted below, there have not been any material changes to the amounts presented in the table of contractual obligations that was included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012.

As of April 30, 2013, we had a total of $224 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility with a maturity in fiscal 2018. The $97 million increase over the $127 million outstanding as of October 31, 2012 principally relates to aggregate borrowings of $145 million principally made to fund the $2.20 total per share cash dividend paid in December 2012 and to repurchase the remaining 13.3% interest in one of our subsidiaries, net of payments made aggregating $48 million, which primarily came from cash provided by operating activities.

In May 2013, we announced that our HEICO Flight Support Corp. subsidiary had entered into an agreement to effectively acquire all of the outstanding stock of Reinhold Industries, Inc. (“Reinhold”) for approximately $130 million in a transaction that will be carried out by means of a merger. Closing, which is subject to governmental approval and standard closing conditions, is expected to occur in the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Reinhold is a leading manufacturer of advanced niche components and complex composite assemblies for commercial aviation, defense and space applications. The purchase price of this acquisition is expected to be paid in cash, principally using proceeds from our revolving credit facility.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which requires the presentation of total comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of shareholders’ equity. We adopted ASU 2011-05 in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and elected to make the presentation in two separate, but consecutive statements, which had no impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” which is intended to reduce the complexity and cost of performing a quantitative test for impairment of goodwill by permitting an entity the option to perform a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment in order to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The update also improves previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, or in fiscal 2013 for our annual impairment test. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which requires disclosure about changes in and amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012, or in fiscal 2014 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of

this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity,” which clarifies the applicable guidance for the release of any cumulative translation adjustments into net earnings. ASU 2013-05 specifies that the entire amount of cumulative translation adjustments should be released into earnings when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a consolidated foreign entity and the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013, or in fiscal 2015 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this report constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature may be forward-looking and the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate” and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement contained herein, in press releases, written statements or other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or in communications and discussions with investors and analysts in the normal course of business through meetings, phone calls and conference calls, concerning our operations, economic performance and financial condition are subject to risks, uncertainties and contingencies. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performance or achievements. Also, forward-looking statements are based upon management’s estimates of fair values and of future costs, using currently available information. Therefore, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in those statements. Factors that could cause such differences include: lower demand for commercial air travel or airline fleet changes or airline purchasing decisions, which could cause lower demand for our goods and services; product development or product specification costs and requirements, which could cause an increase to our costs to complete contracts; governmental and regulatory demands, export policies and restrictions, reductions in defense, space or homeland security spending by U.S. and/or foreign customers or competition from existing and new competitors, which could reduce our sales; our ability to introduce new products and product pricing levels, which could reduce our sales or sales growth; product development difficulties, which could increase our product development costs and delay sales; our ability to make acquisitions and achieve operating synergies from acquired businesses, customer credit risk, interest and income tax rates and economic conditions within and outside of the aviation, defense, space, medical, telecommunications and electronics industries, which could negatively impact our costs and revenues; and defense budget cuts, which could reduce our defense-related revenue. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable law.
