Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended January 1, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 2, 2010. All references to years in these financial statements are to fiscal years.

Note 2 — Acquisitions

During the three months ended January 1, 2011, we completed one business combination within our Aircraft Controls segment for $3,073 in cash. This acquisition complements our military aftermarket business.

In 2010, we completed four business combinations within three of our segments. We completed one acquisition in our Aircraft Controls segment for $8,100 in cash, issuance of a $1,200 unsecured note and contingent consideration with an initial fair value of $1,400. This acquisition complements our military aftermarket business. We acquired two businesses in our Space and Defense Controls segment for $20,273, net of cash acquired, issuance of a $1,000 unsecured note and contingent consideration with an initial fair value of $1,600. One business specializes in turret design, fire control systems and vehicle electronics and the other expands our capabilities in the security and surveillance market. We completed one acquisition in our Industrial Systems segment for $1,050 in cash and issuance of a $150 unsecured note. Combined sales of these acquisitions for the 2009 calendar year were approximately $34,000. The purchase price allocations for the 2010 acquisitions are complete with the exception of income taxes for one of the Space and Defense Controls acquisitions.

Acquired intangible assets			11			$	291,542			$	(96,685	)		$	292,854			$	(89,847	)

All acquired intangible assets other than goodwill are being amortized. Customer-related intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships. Program-related intangible assets consist of long-term programs. Technology-related intangible assets primarily consist of technology, patents, intellectual property and engineering drawings. Marketing-related intangible assets primarily consist of trademarks, trade names and non-compete agreements. Contract-related intangible assets consist of favorable operating lease terms.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $6,943 for the three months ended January 1, 2011 and $7,108 for the three months ended January 2, 2010. Based on acquired intangible assets recorded at January 1, 2011, amortization is expected to be approximately $27,671 in 2011, $26,762 in 2012, $23,079 in 2013, $20,729 in 2014 and $17,894 in 2015.

Note 5 — Product Warranties

In the ordinary course of business, we warrant our products against defects in design, materials and workmanship typically over periods ranging from twelve to thirty-six months. We determine warranty reserves needed by product line based on historical experience and current facts and circumstances. Activity in the warranty accrual is summarized as follows:

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,
		2011				2010
Warranty accrual at beginning of period		$	14,856			$	14,675
Warranties issued during current period			3,149				1,734

Foreign currency translation			(113	)			(50	)
Warranty accrual at end of period		$	16,305			$	13,749

Note 6 — Derivative Financial Instruments

We principally use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk associated with long-term debt and foreign exchange risk related to foreign operations and foreign currency transactions. We enter into derivative financial instruments with a number of major financial institutions to minimize counterparty credit risk.

Derivatives designated as hedging instruments

Interest rate swaps are used to adjust the proportion of total debt that is subject to variable and fixed interest rates. The interest rate swaps are designated as hedges of the amount of future cash flows related to interest payments on variable-rate debt that, in combination with the interest payments on the debt, convert a portion of the variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. At January 1, 2011, we had interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $50,000. The interest rate swaps effectively convert this amount of variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt at 3.1%, including the applicable margin of 200 basis points as of January 1, 2011. The interest will revert back to variable rates based on LIBOR plus the applicable margin upon the maturity of the interest rate swaps in 2012.

We use foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges to effectively fix the exchange rates on future payments. To mitigate exposure in movements between various currencies, primarily the Philippine peso, we had outstanding foreign currency forwards with notional amounts of $8,711 at January 1, 2011. These contracts mature at various times through the first quarter of 2012.

These interest rate swaps and foreign currency forwards are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value and the related gains or losses are deferred in shareholders’ equity as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (AOCI). These deferred gains and losses are reclassified into expense during the periods in which the related payments or receipts affect earnings. However, to the extent the interest rate swaps and foreign currency forwards are not perfectly effective in offsetting the change in the value of the payments being hedged, the ineffective portion of these contracts is recognized in earnings immediately. Ineffectiveness was not material in 2011 or 2010.

Activity in AOCI related to these derivatives during the first three months of 2011 is summarized below:

		Pre-tax				Income				After-Tax
		Amount				Tax				Amount
Balance at October 2, 2010		$	223			$	(79	)		$	144
Net increase in fair value of derivatives			203				(77	)			126
Net reclassification from AOCI into earnings			(127	)			43				(84	)
Accumulated income at January 1, 2011		$	299			$	(113	)		$	186

Activity and classification of derivatives are as follows:

						Net reclassification from AOCI into								Net deferral in AOCI of derivatives
						earnings (effective portion)								(effective portion)
						Three Months Ended								Three Months Ended
		Classification of net gain (loss)				January 1,				January 2,				January 1,				January 2,
		recognized in earnings				2011				2010				2011				2010
Interest rate swaps		Interest expense				$	(105	)		$	(327	)		$	(28	)		$	161
Foreign currency forwards		Cost of sales					232				459				231				1,122
Net gain						$	127			$	132			$	203			$	1,283

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments

We also have foreign currency exposure on intercompany balances that are denominated in a foreign currency and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in the statements of earnings. To minimize foreign currency exposure, we had foreign currency forwards with notional amounts of $186,363 at January 1, 2011. The foreign currency forwards are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in the statements of earnings. We recorded a net loss of $2,324 for the three months ended January 1, 2011 on the foreign currency forwards which are included in other income or expense and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances.

Summary of derivatives

The fair value and classification of derivatives on the consolidated balance sheet are summarized as follows:

						January 1,				October 2,
						2011				2010
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments:
Foreign currency forwards		Other current assets				$	663			$	498
Foreign currency forwards		Other assets					—				92
						$	663			$	590
Interest rate swaps		Other accrued liabilities					367				381
Interest rate swaps		Other long-term liabilities					—				63
						$	367			$	444
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:
Foreign currency forwards		Other current assets				$	1,256			$	3,101
Foreign currency forwards		Other assets					—				74
						$	1,256			$	3,175
Foreign currency forwards		Other accrued liabilities				$	2,116			$	2,346
Foreign currency forwards		Other long-term liabilities					—				61
						$	2,116			$	2,407

Note 7 — Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value. The definition of the fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3 — Inputs for which significant valuation assumptions are unobservable in a market and therefore value is based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed and considers risk premiums that a market participant would require.

Our derivatives are valued using various pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses that incorporate observable market data, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. Our Level 3 fair value liabilities represent contingent consideration recorded for acquisitions to be paid if various financial targets are met. The amounts recorded were calculated for each payment scenario in each period using an estimate of the probability of the future cash outflows. The varying contingent payments were then discounted to the present value at the weighted average cost of capital.

The following table presents the fair values and classification of our financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis as of January 1, 2011:

		Classification				Level 1				Level 2				Level 3				Total
Foreign currency forwards		Other current assets				$	—			$	1,919			$	—			$	1,919
						$	—			$	1,919			$	—			$	1,919
Foreign currency forwards		Other accrued liabilities				$	—			$	2,116			$	—			$	2,116
Interest rate swaps		Other accrued liabilities					—				367				—				367
Acquisition contingent consideration		Other accrued liabilities					—				—				1,301				1,301
Acquisition contingent consideration		Other long-term liabilities					—				—				2,003				2,003
						$	—			$	2,483			$	3,304			$	5,787

During 2010, we recorded contingent purchase price consideration for acquisitions. As of October 2, 2010, the fair value of those liabilities was $3,112. The change in the fair value for the three months ended January 1, 2011 represents an increase in the discounted future cash flows and is recorded as a component of interest expense.

Our only financial instrument for which the carrying value differs from its fair value is long-term debt. At January 1, 2011, the fair value of long-term debt was $725,777 compared to its carrying value of $714,841. The fair value of long-term debt was estimated based on quoted market prices.

Note 8 — Restructuring

In 2009, we initiated restructuring plans to better align our cost structure with lower sales activity associated with the global recession. The restructuring actions taken have resulted in workforce reductions, primarily in the U.S., the Philippines and Europe.

Restructuring expense by segment related to severance is summarized as follows:

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,
		2011				2010
Aircraft Controls		$	—			$	1,192
Industrial Systems			58				394
Components			—				239
Medical Devices			—				(6	)
Total		$	58			$	1,819

We do not anticipate significant additional amounts for the remainder of 2011. Payments related to these severance benefits are expected to be paid in full by the end of 2011.

Restructuring activity for the three months ended January 1, 2011 is as follows:

		Severance
Restructuring accrual at beginning of period		$	3,389
Restructuring charges			107
Expense adjustments for prior year accruals			(49	)
Cash payments			(1,580	)
Foreign currency translation			(42	)
Restructuring accrual at end of period		$	1,825

Pension expense for defined contribution plans			1,147				1,430
Total pension expense for non-U.S. plans		$	3,255			$	2,986

Net periodic benefit costs for the post-retirement health care benefit plan consist of:

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,
		2011				2010
Service cost		$	123			$	143
Interest cost			276				336
Amortization of transition obligation			99				99
Amortization of prior service cost			—				54
Amortization of actuarial loss			149				210
Total periodic post-retirement benefit cost		$	647			$	842

During the three months ended January 1, 2011, we made contributions to our defined benefit pension plans of $7,707 to the U.S. plans and $1,643 to the non-U.S. plans. We anticipate contributing approximately $24,300 more to the U.S. plans and approximately $4,900 more to the non-U.S. plans for a total of approximately $38,500 in 2011.

Note 10 — Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010 of 27.0% and 26.8%, respectively, are lower than would be expected by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate to earnings before income taxes as a significant portion of earnings came from foreign operations with lower tax rates.

Note 11 — Shareholders’ Equity

The changes in shareholders’ equity for the three months ended January 1, 2011 are summarized as follows:

Note 16 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new standards on consolidation as codified in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810-10. The new standard amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities and affects the overall consolidation analysis. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. We adopted this standard at the beginning of 2011. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued new standards for allocating revenue to multiple deliverables in a contract as codified in ASC 605-25. The new standard allows entities to allocate consideration in a multiple element arrangement in a manner that better reflects the transaction economics. When vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, entities will be allowed to develop their best estimate of the selling price for each deliverable and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. Additionally, use of the residual method has been eliminated. We adopted this standard at the beginning of 2011. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820) — Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements.” This amendment requires new disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. This standard is effective for us beginning in the second quarter of 2010 for Level 1 and 2 disclosures and in the first quarter of 2012 for Level 3. Other than requiring additional disclosures, the adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-17, “Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition.” This ASU allows entities to make a policy election to use the milestone method of revenue recognition and provides guidance on defining a milestone and the criteria that should be met to applying the milestone method. The scope of this ASU is limited to the transactions involving milestones related to research and development deliverables. We adopted this standard at the beginning of 2011. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued new disclosure requirements about the credit quality of financing receivables and allowance for credit losses, as codified in ASC 310. The objective of the new standard is to facilitate a financial statement users’ evaluation of the nature of the credit risk inherent in an entity’s portfolio, how that risk is analyzed and assessed in arriving at the allowance for credit losses and explanations for changes in the allowance for credit losses. In addition, the amendment requires entities to disclose credit quality indicators, past due information and modification to financing receivables. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. We adopted this standard at the beginning of 2011. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 2, 2010. All references to years in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are to fiscal years.

OVERVIEW

We are a worldwide designer, manufacturer and integrator of high performance precision motion and fluid controls and control systems for a broad range of applications in aerospace and defense, industrial and medical markets. Our aerospace and defense products and systems include military and commercial aircraft flight controls, satellite positioning controls, controls for steering tactical and strategic missiles, thrust vector controls for space launch vehicles, controls for gun aiming, stabilization and automatic ammunition loading for armored combat vehicles, and security and surveillance products. Our industrial products are used in a wide range of applications, including injection molding machines, pilot training simulators, wind energy, power generation, material and automotive testing, metal forming, heavy industry and oil exploration. Our medical products include infusion therapy pumps, enteral clinical nutrition pumps, slip rings used on CT scanners and motors used in sleep apnea devices. We operate under five segments, Aircraft Controls, Space and Defense Controls, Industrial Systems, Components and Medical Devices. Our principal manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, including facilities in New York, California, Utah, Virginia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Georgia and Illinois, and in England, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Philippines, Ireland, India and China.

We have long-term contracts with some of our customers. These contracts are predominantly within Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls and represent approximately one-third of our sales. We recognize revenue on these contracts using the percentage of completion, cost-to-cost method of accounting as work progresses toward completion. The remainder of our sales are recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership and title to the product are transferred to the customer, principally as units are delivered or as service obligations are satisfied. This method of revenue recognition is predominantly used within the Industrial Systems, Components and Medical Devices segments, as well as with aftermarket activity.

We concentrate on providing our customers with products designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards. In achieving a leadership position in the high performance, precision controls market, we have capitalized on our strengths, which include:

	•		superior technical competence and customer intimacy breeding market leadership,
	•		customer diversity and broad product portfolio,
	•		well-established international presence serving customers worldwide, and
	•		proven ability to successfully integrate acquisitions.

We intend to increase our revenue base and improve our profitability and cash flows from operations by building on our market leadership positions, by strengthening our niche market positions in the principal markets we serve and by extending our participation on the platforms we supply by providing more systems solutions. We also expect to maintain a balanced, diversified portfolio in terms of markets served, product applications, customer base and geographic presence. Our strategy to achieve our objectives includes:

	•		maintaining our technological excellence by building upon our systems integration capabilities while solving our customers’ most demanding technical problems,
	•		taking advantage of our global capabilities,
	•		growing our profitable aftermarket business,
	•		capitalizing on strategic acquisitions and opportunities,
	•		entering and developing new markets, and
	•		striving for continuing cost improvements.

Challenges facing us include improving shareholder value through increased profitability while experiencing pricing pressures from customers, strong competition, increases in costs such as retirement and health care benefits and adjusting to global economic conditions. We address these challenges by focusing on strategic revenue growth and by continuing to improve operating efficiencies through various process, manufacturing and restructuring initiatives and using low cost manufacturing facilities without compromising quality.

Acquisitions

All of our acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method and, accordingly, the operating results for the acquired companies are included in the consolidated statements of earnings from the respective dates of acquisition. Under purchase accounting, we record assets and liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet. The purchase price described for each acquisition below is net of any cash acquired and includes debt issued or assumed.

During the three months ended January 1, 2011, we completed one business combination within our Aircraft Controls segment for a purchase price of $3 million. This acquisition complements our military aftermarket business.

In 2010, we completed four business combinations within three of our segments. We completed one acquisition in our Aircraft Controls segment for $11 million. This acquisition complements our military aftermarket business. We completed two acquisitions in our Space and Defense Controls segment for a total of $23 million. One business specializes in turret design, fire control systems and vehicle electronics and the other expands our capabilities in the security and surveillance market. We completed one acquisition in our Industrial Systems segment for $1 million.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no changes in critical accounting policies in the current year from those disclosed in our 2010 Form 10-K.

Reviews for Impairment of Goodwill

Our most recent test of goodwill for impairment was our annual test as of the beginning of our fourth quarter in 2010. The results of that test indicated that goodwill was not impaired and the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by over 10%.

The most significant assumptions in determining fair value are projected revenue growth rates, operating profit margins and cash flows, the terminal growth rate and the discount rate. Management projects revenue growth rates, operating margins and cash flows based on each reporting unit’s current business, expected developments and operational strategies over a five-year period. In estimating the terminal growth rate, we consider our historical and projected results, as well as the economic environment in which our reporting units operate. Significant program delays, changes in demand due to economic pressures or unfavorable terms in our contracts could have a negative effect on the fair value of a reporting unit.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820) — Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements.” This amendment requires new disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. This standard is effective for us beginning in the second quarter of 2010 for Level 1 and 2 disclosures and in the first quarter of 2012 for Level 3. Other than requiring additional disclosures, the adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-28, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC Topic 350) — When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts.” This amendment modifies the criteria for performing Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts, and it requires performing Step 2 if qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Any goodwill impairment resulting from the initial adoption of the amendments should be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Any goodwill impairments occurring after the initial adoption of the amendments should be included in earnings. We will adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2012. We do not expect the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, “Business Combinations (ASC Topic 805) — Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations.” This amendment expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. This amendment is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. We will adopt this standard in 2012. Other than requiring additional disclosures, the adoption of this amendment will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Diluted earnings per share		$	0.73			$	0.47			$	0.26				55	%

Net sales increased in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010. We had increases in all of our segments with the largest increases coming from the Space and Defense Controls and Aircraft Controls segments.

Our gross margin was higher in the first quarter of 2011 compared to 2010, reflecting a more favorable product mix, offset by additions to contract loss reserves, which were $8 million higher in 2011 compared to 2010, primarily related to our Aircraft Controls segment.

Research and development expenses remained relatively unchanged as increases in multiple programs, including the Airbus A350 program, were offset by a $3 million reimbursement for a commercial transport program.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of sales, primarily from efficiencies gained as a result of the higher sales volume.

Interest expense decreased from the same period in 2010 as a result of lower average interest rates.

2011 Outlook — We expect sales in 2011 to increase by 6% to approximately $2.25 billion reflecting increases in all of our segments except for Components. We expect operating margins to improve to 10.9% in 2011 compared to 10.2% in 2010. We expect operating margins to increase in Medical Devices, Industrial Systems, Space and Defense Controls and Aircraft Controls and decrease in Components. We expect net earnings to increase to $127 million and diluted earnings per share to increase by 17% to $2.75.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND OUTLOOK

Operating profit, as presented below, is net sales less cost of sales and other operating expenses, excluding interest expense, equity-based compensation expense and other corporate expenses. Cost of sales and other operating expenses are directly identifiable to the respective segment or allocated on the basis of sales, number of employees or profit. Operating profit is reconciled to earnings before income taxes in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in this report.

Aircraft Controls

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,				$				%
(dollars in millions)		2011				2010				Variance				Variance
Net sales — military aircraft		$	114.1			$	108.7			$	5.4				5	%
Net sales — commercial aircraft			74.3				57.3				17.0				30	%
Net sales — navigation aids			7.5				9.0				(1.5	)			(17	%)

Operating margin			10.3	%			10.1	%
Backlog		$	560.6			$	519.7			$	40.9				8	%

Military aircraft sales increased on the V-22 program in aftermarket and OEM by $10 million partially offset by a $3 million decrease on the F-15 program and a $1 million decrease on the F-35 program as it shifts from development to production. Commercial aircraft sales were strong as sales increased $8 million in aftermarket, due to both an unusual order in 2011 and depressed levels in 2010. In addition, sales increased $6 million for Boeing, mostly from the ramp up of production on the 787, and $2 million for Airbus. Navigation aids decreased due to delays in contract awards.

Our operating margin was comparable in 2011 and 2010. The 2011 period benefitted from higher volume and sales mix changes toward higher margin business such as aftermarket. In addition, research and development spending declined in 2011, the result of a $3 million reimbursement on a commercial transport program. These favorable results were mostly offset by $7 million more of contract loss reserves recorded in 2011 on various commercial programs.

The higher level of twelve-month backlog for Aircraft Controls at January 1, 2011 compared to January 2, 2010 reflects strong military aircraft orders.

2011 Outlook for Aircraft Controls — We expect sales in Aircraft Controls to increase 5% to $797 million in 2011. Military aircraft sales are expected to increase 1% to $461 million. We expect a sales increase in military aftermarket, in part due to recent acquisitions, offset by a decrease on the F-15 program. Commercial aircraft sales are expected to increase 14% to $298 million with increases in almost all product lines, including Boeing 787, aftermarket and business jets. Navigation aids are expected to increase $1 million. We expect our operating margin to be 10.4% in 2011, an improvement from 10.1% in 2010, reflecting a more favorable sales mix.

Space and Defense Controls

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,				$				%
(dollars in millions)		2011				2010				Variance				Variance
Net sales		$	95.7			$	69.5			$	26.2				38	%
Operating profit		$	15.8			$	7.5			$	8.3				111	%
Operating margin			16.5	%			10.8	%
Backlog		$	209.7			$	201.6			$	8.1				4	%

Net sales in Space and Defense Controls increased significantly, primarily in three main areas, the Driver’s Vision Enhancer (DVE) program, tactical missiles and security and surveillance. Sales on the DVE program were $15 million in the quarter, compared to $1 million in 2010. Tactical missiles increased $8 million as a result of a large order for an aircraft stores management system and replenishment of missile inventory being used in the Middle East. In addition, sales increased $5 million in security and surveillance, primarily a result of our Pieper acquisition in Germany in the third quarter of 2010.

Our operating margin for Space and Defense Controls increased significantly in 2011. We benefitted from the strong volume and profitability of the DVE program sales in 2011. In addition, we had been waiting for export approval on the stores management application, which resulted in an adjustment of the profit rate.

The higher level of twelve-month backlog at January 1, 2011 compared to January 2, 2010 relates to increased orders for tactical missiles, offset by decreases in defense controls programs.

2011 Outlook for Space and Defense Controls — We expect sales in Space and Defense Controls to increase $32 million, or 10%, to $358 million in 2011. We expect sales increases in tactical missiles and in security and surveillance, primarily from the Pieper acquisition, which will offset a decline in satellites. We expect our operating margin in 2011 to increase to 12.0% from 11.0% in 2010, primarily the result of the strong first quarter and the forecasted sales increase.

Industrial Systems

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,				$				%
(dollars in millions)		2011				2010				Variance				Variance
Net sales		$	143.7			$	136.4			$	7.3				5	%
Operating profit		$	14.4			$	11.2			$	3.2				29	%
Operating margin			10.0	%			8.2	%
Backlog		$	245.1			$	190.2			$	54.9				29	%

Net sales in Industrial Systems reflect increases in all of our major markets except for wind energy. The broad-based sales recovery reflects the strengthening of business in all of our major geographic markets. Sales increased $3 million each in controls for metal forming presses, distribution and power generation and $2 million each in plastics making machinery, test equipment and motion simulation. Offsetting those increases was a decrease in wind energy of $14 million, primarily due to the Chinese market, where large customers had built up inventory, allowing them to slow their orders.

Our operating margin for Industrial Systems increased as a result of the higher sales volume in 2011 associated with the economic recovery.

The higher level of twelve-month backlog for Industrial Systems at January 1, 2011 compared to January 2, 2010 is due primarily to increased demand in most of our major markets due to improving global economic conditions.

2011 Outlook for Industrial Systems — We expect sales in Industrial Systems to increase 11% to $606 million in 2011. We expect sales increases in most major markets, with the largest increases in test equipment, motion simulators and metal forming presses, offset by a small decline in wind energy. We expect that our operating margin will increase to 10.4% in 2011 from 8.8% in 2010 as a result of the higher sales volume associated with the economic recovery.

Components

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,				$				%
(dollars in millions)		2011				2010				Variance				Variance
Net sales		$	86.4			$	84.9			$	1.5				2	%
Operating profit		$	14.8			$	12.1			$	2.7				22	%
Operating margin			17.1	%			14.3	%
Backlog		$	162.4			$	176.3			$	(13.9	)			(8	%)

Net sales in Components increased marginally from last year; however, we experienced a sales shift between markets. Sales increased $4 million in our industrial business from the general automation and closed circuit TV surveillance markets. Medical sales increased $2 million, primarily from sales to Respironics for sleep apnea equipment. Sales in the marine market, which is closely tied to off shore oil exploration, also increased $2 million. Sales in the aircraft market were relatively unchanged as a $2 million decline in military aircraft was offset by increased sales in the commercial market. Sales for space and defense controls declined $7 million, mostly a result of slowing demand for various military vehicles such as the Bradley Fighting Vehicle and a $2 million fiber optic modem order we supplied in 2010 which did not repeat in 2011.

Our operating margin increased as a result of the sales mix shift toward higher margin industrial and marine markets and away from defense controls.

The lower level of twelve-month backlog at January 1, 2011 compared to January 2, 2010 primarily relates to slowing orders for space and defense controls and military aircraft programs.

2011 Outlook for Components — We expect sales in Components to decrease by $10 million in 2011. We expect sales will decrease in both aircraft and space and defense controls as several major military aircraft and vehicle programs wind down. Partially offsetting those declines are expected sales increases in industrial, marine and medical markets. We expect our operating margin in 2011 to be 15.2%, lower than the 16.7% we achieved in 2010 due to the lower sales volume.

Medical Devices

		Three Months Ended
		January 1,				January 2,				$				%
(dollars in millions)		2011				2010				Variance				Variance
Net sales		$	32.6			$	29.4			$	3.2				11	%
Operating (loss) profit		$	(1.5	)		$	0.1			$	(1.6	)			N/A
Operating margin			(4.6	%)			0.5	%
Backlog		$	12.9			$	10.1			$	2.8				28	%

Net sales in Medical Devices increased primarily from strength in the sensors and hand pieces market, which increased $2 million, and administration sets, which increased $1 million. Sales of pumps declined $1 million as we held shipments on one of our infusion pumps pending resolution of a software issue.

Our operating margin declined in 2011 relative to 2010 despite the sales increase. We recorded a $1 million reserve in connection with a voluntary software upgrade related to an infusion pump to improve its reliability in response to customer feedback. In addition, our costs have increased as a result of our investments in a more extensive direct sales force to broaden our channels to market.

Twelve-month backlog for Medical Devices is not as substantial relative to sales as in our other segments, reflecting the shorter order-to-shipment cycle for this line of business.

2011 Outlook for Medical Devices — We expect sales in Medical Devices to increase $13 million, or 11%, to $140 million in 2011. We expect sales increases from new product offerings, including increases in administration sets, pumps and sensors and hand pieces. We expect our operating margin to be 2.1%, a significant improvement from 2010 as a result of the sales volume increases and cost improvements.

Operating activities		$	58.3			$	56.1			$	2.2				4	%
Investing activities			(21.2	)			(12.0	)			(9.2	)			77	%
Financing activities			(44.3	)			(23.8	)			(20.5	)			86	%

Our available borrowing capacity and our cash flow from operations provide us with the financial resources needed to run our operations, reinvest in our business and make strategic acquisitions.

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased slightly in 2011 compared to 2010. The increase is attributable to higher earnings and customer advances received on tactical missile programs in our Space and Defense segment in 2011. Offsetting those increases were higher working capital requirements, largely in inventory, compared to 2010 which was impacted by lower sales as we began to recover from the recession.

Investing activities

Net cash used by investing activities in the first three months of 2011 increased by $9 million, primarily from increased capital expenditures, including test equipment on the A350, and $3 million for a small acquisition to complement our military aftermarket business in Aircraft Controls.

Financing activities

Net cash used by financing activities in the first three months of 2011 increased by $20 million, primarily reflecting larger paydowns on our U.S. credit facility.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any material off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material future effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

Our contractual obligations and commercial commitments have not changed materially from the disclosures in our 2010 Form 10-K.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE AND RESOURCES

We maintain bank credit facilities to fund our short and long-term capital requirements, including for acquisitions. From time to time, we also sell equity and debt securities to fund acquisitions or take advantage of favorable market conditions.

Our largest credit facility is our U.S. credit facility, which matures on March 14, 2013. It consists of a $750 million revolver and had an outstanding balance of $325 million at January 1, 2011. Interest on the outstanding credit facility borrowings is based on LIBOR plus the applicable margin, which was 200 basis points at January 1, 2011 and will decrease to 175 basis points during the second quarter of 2011. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets.

The U.S. credit facility contains various covenants. The covenant for minimum net worth, defined as total shareholders’ equity adjusted to maintain the amounts of accumulated other comprehensive loss at the level in existence as of September 30, 2006, is $600 million. The covenant for minimum interest coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of EBITDA to interest expense for the most recent four quarters, is 3.0. The covenant for the maximum leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of net debt, including letters of credit, to EBITDA for the most recent four quarters, is 4.0. The covenant for maximum senior leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of net senior debt to consolidated EBITDA for the most recent four quarters is 2.75. The covenant for maximum capital expenditures is $100 million annually. We are in compliance with all covenants. EBITDA is defined in the loan agreement as (i) the sum of net income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, other non-cash items reducing consolidated net income and non-cash equity-based compensation expenses minus (ii) other non-cash items increasing consolidated net income.

We are required to obtain the consent of lenders of the U.S. credit facility before raising significant additional debt financing. In recent years, we have demonstrated our ability to secure consents to access debt markets. We have also been successful in accessing equity markets from time to time. We believe that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing as needed.

At January 1, 2011, we had $428 million of unused borrowing capacity, including $414 million from the U.S. credit facility after considering standby letters of credit.

Net debt to capitalization was 35% at January 1, 2011 and 36% at October 2, 2010. The decrease in net debt to capitalization is primarily due to debt reductions funded by our positive cash flow and net earnings in the first three months of 2011.

We believe that our cash on hand, cash flows from operations and available borrowings under short and long-term lines of credit will continue to be sufficient to meet our operating needs.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND MARKET TRENDS

We operate within the aerospace and defense, industrial and medical markets. Our aerospace and defense markets are affected by market conditions and program funding levels, while our industrial markets are influenced by general capital investment trends. Our medical markets are influenced by economic conditions, population demographics, medical advances and patient demand. A common factor throughout our markets is the continuing demand for technologically advanced products.

Aerospace and Defense

Approximately 62% of our 2010 sales were generated in aerospace and defense markets. The military aircraft market is dependent on military spending for development and production programs. Production programs are typically long-term in nature, offering predictability as to capacity needs and future revenues. We maintain positions on numerous high priority programs, including the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and V-22 Osprey. The large installed base of our products leads to attractive aftermarket sales and service opportunities. Aftermarket revenues are expected to continue to grow due to a number of scheduled military retrofit programs and increased flight hours resulting from increased military commitments.

The commercial OEM market has historically exhibited cyclical swings and sensitivity to economic conditions. The aftermarket is driven by usage of the existing aircraft fleet, the age of the installed fleet and is currently being impacted by fleet re-sizing programs for passenger and cargo aircraft. Changes in aircraft utilization rates affect the need for maintenance and spare parts and impact aftermarket sales. Boeing and Airbus have historically adjusted production in line with air traffic volume.

The military and government space market is primarily dependent on the authorized levels of funding for satellite communications. Government spending on military satellites has risen in recent years as the military’s need for improved intelligence gathering has increased. The commercial space market is comprised of large satellite customers, traditionally telecommunications companies. Trends for this market, as well as for commercial launch vehicles, follow the telecommunications companies’ need for increased capacity and the satellite replacement lifecycle of 7-10 years. Our position on NASA programs are impacted by the uncertainty and delays resulting from the Administration’s re-definition of those programs; however, they hold the potential to be long-run production programs.

The tactical missile, missile defense and defense controls markets are dependent on many of the same market conditions as military aircraft, including overall military spending and program funding levels. Our homeland security product line is dependent on government funding at federal and local levels, as well as private sector demand.

Industrial

Approximately 30% of our 2010 sales were generated in industrial markets. The industrial markets we serve are influenced by several factors, including capital investment, product innovation, economic growth, cost-reduction efforts and technology upgrades. We are experiencing challenges from current global economic conditions. This includes reacting to the demands for industrial automation equipment and steel and automotive manufacturing. Those markets were impacted by the global recession in 2009 and have continued to recover since then.

Medical

Approximately 8% of our 2010 sales were generated in medical markets. The medical markets we serve are influenced by economic conditions, hospital and outpatient clinic spending on equipment, population demographics, medical advances, patient demands and the need for precision control components and systems. Advances in medical technology and medical treatments have had the effect of extending the average life span, in turn resulting in greater need for medical services. These same technology and treatment advances also drive increased demand from the general population as a means to improve quality of life. Greater access to medical insurance, whether through government funded health care plans or private insurance, also increases the demand for medical services.

Foreign Currencies

We are affected by the movement of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. dollar, particularly in Industrial Systems. About one-third of our 2010 sales were denominated in foreign currencies. During the first three months of 2011, foreign currencies generally weakened against the U.S. dollar compared to the first three months of 2010. The translation of the results of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars decreased sales by $5 million compared to the same period one year ago.
