Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
November 30, 2005
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Companys year-end financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005, as filed with the Commission.
The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The February 28, 2005 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
The Company has a subsidiary in the U.K., which uses the British pound as its functional currency. Assets and liabilities of this foreign subsidiary are translated using the exchange rate in effect at the end of the period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average of the exchange rates in effect during the period. Translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses related to long-term intercompany transactions are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders equity.
NOTE B - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 123 (R) (revised 2004) Share-Based payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Statement 123 (R) supersedes Accounting Principal Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach to accounting in Statement 123 (R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements as based on their fair values. Currently the Company accounts for these payments under the intrinsic value provisions of APB No. 25 with no expense recognition in the financial statements. Statement 123 (R) is effective for the Company beginning March 1, 2006. The Statement offers several alternatives for implementation. At this time, management has not made a decision as to the alternative it may select.
In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151 (SFAS No. 151), Inventory Costs, an amendment of APB No. 43, Chapter 4. The amendments made by SFAS No. 151 will improve financial reporting by requiring that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) be recognized as current-period charges and by requiring the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of production facilities. SFAS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 24, 2004. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of SFAS No. 151 will have on its financial position and results of operations.
8
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets. This statement explains that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not anticipate this pronouncement to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. This statement revises the reporting requirements related to changes in accounting principles or adoption of new accounting pronouncements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not anticipate this pronouncement to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
NOTE C - BUSINESS ACQUISITION
In May 2005, the Company acquired the IDS division of Three Five Systems, Inc. Three Five Systems specializes in flat panel, touch screen and rack mount systems with custom military, industrial and commercial requirements. As part of this transaction, the Company acquired fixed assets of $74,000, inventories of $773,000, and various other assets of $530,000 in exchange for cash of $1,377,000. The other assets include product development designs and drawings and a customer list, as well as a non-compete agreement. The product development designs and drawings will be amortized over a five year period, while the customer list will be amortized over a three year period, which the Company estimates to be the useful life of these assets. The IDS division has moved to new facilities and is known as Aydin North and is a part of the Companys Pennsylvania based Aydin operations. The IDS operations of Three Five Systems, Inc. are not significant to the Company.
The aggregate purchase price has been allocated based on fair values as of the date of the completion of the acquisition as follows (in thousands):

The Company acquired inventory, fixed assets and various other assets of $459,000 in exchange for cash of $150,000 and $400,000 of the Companys common stock, resulting in goodwill of approximately $91,000. These operations were consolidated into the Companys Z-Axis, Inc. operations located in Phelps, NY, since the date of acquisition. The $400,000 of common stock was issued at $6 per share, the market value of the stock at the date of purchase. The common stock had a put feature whereby Data Ray could redeem the stock for $5.50 per share if the price per share of the Companys stock was below $6.00 after the one year anniversary date of the purchase agreement. The price of the stock was in excess of $6.00 at the one year anniversary date of the agreement. The monitor operations of Data Ray are not significant to the Company.

NOTE D - PURCHASE OF ASSETS
In October 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with Evans & Sutherland, Inc. to purchase certain assets. Under this agreement, the Company paid a total of $5,250,000 for the following assets related to Evans & Sutherlands ESCP® and Targetview CRT projector product lines: inventory valued at $2,244,000, fixed assets valued at $248,000 and intangible assets valued at $2,758,000. The intangible assets consist of a non-compete agreement valued at $1,000,000 and amortizable over 5 years, and a customer list valued at $1,758,000 amortizable over a 15 year period. The purchase was financed initially by a loan from the Chief Executive Officer, which subsequently was refinanced under the Companys new line of credit. Following this acquisition, the Company began the process of consolidating all CRT projector manufacturing, sales and support with its established Marquee projector operations in Cape Canaveral, Florida. This consolidation process was substantially completed by the end of December 2004. The Company has a presence in the military flight training and simulation market, and with this acquisition will be able to expand into the commercial flight training and simulation market.

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings are the results of contracts in progress (jobs) in completing orders to customers specifications on contracts accounted for under SOP 81-1 Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. Costs included are material, labor and overhead. These jobs require design and engineering effort for a specific customer purchasing a unique product. The Company records revenue on these fixed-price and cost-plus contracts on the percentage of completion basis using the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion as the measurement basis for progress toward completion and revenue recognition. Any losses identified on contracts are recognized immediately. Contract accounting requires significant judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract costs and making related assumptions for schedule and technical issues. With respect to contract change orders, claims or similar items, judgment must be used in estimating related amounts and assessing the potential for realization. These amounts are only included in contract value when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable. Billings are generated based on specific contract terms, which might be a progress payment schedule, specific shipments, etc. None of the above contracts in progress contain post-shipment obligations.
As of November 30, 2005 and February 28, 2005, there were no production costs which exceeded the aggregate estimated cost of all in process and delivered units relating to long-term contracts. Additionally, there were no claims outstanding that would affect the ultimate realization of full contract values. As of November 30, 2005 and February 28, 2005, there were no progress payments that had been netted against inventory.

NOTE H - LINES OF CREDIT
At November 30, 2005, the Company had a $27.5 million credit facility with a bank, collateralized by equipment, inventories and accounts receivable of the Company. The interest rate on this line is a floating LIBOR rate based on a ratio of debt to EBITDA, as defined in the loan documents. As of November 30, 2005, the outstanding balance of this line of credit was $20.6 million and the available amount for borrowing was $6.9 million. The line of credit agreement contains covenants, including requirements related to tangible cash flow, ratio of debt to cash flow and asset coverage. Additionally, the bank requires that any contemplated acquisitions be accretive. The Company was not in compliance with the consolidated Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio covenant at November 30, 2005. On January 17, 2006, the Company obtained a waiver of this default from the lender. The Company expects to be in compliance with the financial covenants over the next twelve months based on current financial projections and the availability of subordinated advances from the Companys Chief Executive Officer, if required. This line of credit agreement, as amended on January 6, 2006, expires in March 2007, and accordingly, is classified under long-term liabilities on the Companys balance sheet.
Additionally, in April 2005, the Company converted a $2.8 million line of credit (collateralized by assets of Fox International, Inc.) with another bank to a $3.5 million line of credit with a bank. As part of the new financing, the lender paid off the balance of the previous line as well as a mortgage secured by the land and building of Fox International, Inc. The interest rate on this line is a floating LIBOR rated based on a ratio of debt to EBITDA, as defined in the loan documents. As of November 30, 2005, the outstanding balance of this line of credit was $3.5 million with no remaining borrowing availability. The line of credit agreement contains covenants, including requirements related to tangible cash

NOTE K PRIOR PERIOD RESTATEMENT
Certain prior year amounts have been restated to correct errors discovered by the Company during preparation of the 3rd quarter Fiscal 2006 financial statements. See related comments under the caption Prior Period Restatement in Part I, Item 2. in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company discovered errors in its accounting for the treatment of foreign subsidiary losses for income tax purposes in fiscal 2005 and in certain non-income tax-based franchise taxes in fiscal 2005 and prior fiscal years. These errors resulted primarily from clerical mathematical error, as well as the improper recording of non-income based franchise taxes against an accrual rather than as an expense on the consolidated statements of income.
The following tables summarize the impact of the restatements on the affected items as originally reported on the consolidated balance sheet at February 28, 2005 and as originally reported on the consolidated statements of income for the three and nine month periods ended November 30, 2004 (in thousands except per share data).

NOTE L SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine-month periods ended November 30, 2005 and 2004 (in thousands, except per share data):

Stock-Based Compensation Plans
The Company has an incentive stock option plan whereby options may be granted to key employees at a price not less than fair market value at the time the options are granted and are exercisable beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date for a period not to exceed ten years. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Companys stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The option price of all the Companys stock options is equal to the market value of the stock at the grant date. The Company granted 9,000 stock options during each of the three quarters ended November 30, 2005 and 2004.
Had compensation cost been determined based upon the fair value at the grant date for awards under the stock option plan consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, the effect on the Companys pro forma net income and net income per share would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached interim consolidated financial statements and with the Companys 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders, which included audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005, as well as Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview
The Company is a worldwide leader in the manufacture and distribution of a wide range of display devices, encompassing, among others, entertainment, military, medical and simulation display solutions. The Company is comprised of two segments - (1) the manufacture and distribution of monitors, projection systems and CRT displays and (2) the wholesale distribution of consumer electronic parts. The display segment is organized into four interrelated operations aggregated into one operating segment pursuant to the aggregation criteria of SFAS 131:
Monitors offers a complete range of CRTs, flat panel displays and projection systems for use in training and simulation, military, medical and industrial applications.
Data Display offers a complete range of CRTs for use in data display screen, including computer terminal monitors and medical monitoring equipment.
Home Entertainment offers a complete range of CRTs and projection tubes for television and home theater equipment.
Components provides replacement electron guns for CRTs for independent customers as well as servicing the Companys internal needs.
Third Quarter and Year to Date 2006 Highlights
Monitor division revenue - The Company continues to focus its growth efforts on various niche markets within the defense, medical and projection display industries. Net sales within this division decreased in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 by $1.0 million compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2005 due to the fulfillment of a military contract for replacement CRTs earlier in fiscal 2006, which has not been renewed. For the nine months ended November 30, 2005, net revenue decreased $0.1 million or 0.3% compared to the same period a year ago. On a year to date basis, the decline in replacement military CRT sales was largely offset by the Evans & Sutherland product line acquired in November 2004, which was consolidated with the Companys Display Systems operations in Cape Canaveral, FL.
Data Display division revenue the Companys Data Display division sales decreased $0.5 million for the three months ended November 30, 2005, as compared to the same period a year ago, due to a larger concentration of lower priced replacement CRTs in the current quarters sales mix compared to the prior year period. Sales in this division increased $1.1 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2005 as compared to the same period a year ago. These increases reflect the Companys decision to distribute projection tubes from its Data Display location in Tucker, GA. These projection units carry a higher sales price per unit than the Companys normal inventory.
Acquisition during the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company acquired the IDS division of Three Five Systems, Inc., consisting of inventory and certain assets. The newly acquired operation has acquired leased facilities in Marlboro, MA and has now completed its relocation to the new facility and will operate as a division of the Companys Aydin Display Systems operations.
New credit facility in April 2005, the Company finalized a new line of credit to replace a prior facility. Under the terms of this new facility, the Company paid off the existing line of credit as well as a mortgage securing the
19
land and building of Fox International, Ltd. The maximum amount available for borrowings under this new line is $3.5 million compared to approximately $2.8 million under the prior facility. Proceeds from this line are available for working capital needs of the Company.
Fiscal 2006 Challenges
Inventory management - the Company continually monitors historical sales trends as well as projected future needs to ensure adequate on hand supplies of inventory and to ensure against overstocking of slower moving, obsolete items.
Certain of the Companys divisions maintain significant inventories of CRTs and component parts in an effort to ensure its customers a reliable source of supply. The Companys inventory turnover averages over 175 days, although in many cases the Company would anticipate holding 90 to 100 days of inventory in the normal course of operations. This level of inventory is higher than some of the Companys competitors due to the fact that it sells a number of products representing older, or trailing edge, technology that may not be available from other sources. The market for these trailing edge technology products is declining and, as manufacturers for these products discontinue production or exit the business, the Company may make last time buys. In the monitor operations of the Companys business, the market for its products is characterized by fairly rapid change as a result of the development of new technologies, particularly in the flat panel display area. If the Company fails to anticipate the changing needs of its customers and accurately forecast their requirements, it may accumulate inventories of products which its customers no longer need and which the Company will be unable to sell or return to its vendors. Because of this, the Companys management monitors the adequacy of its inventory reserves regularly, and at November 30, 2005, believes its reserves to be adequate.
Interest rate exposure The Company had outstanding bank debt in excess of $24.0 million as of November 30, 2005, all of which is subject to interest rate fluctuations by the Companys lenders. Higher rates applied by the Federal Reserve Board over the past four fiscal quarters and potential continued rate hikes have negatively affected the Companys earnings and will continue to negatively impact the Companys earnings. It is the intent of the Company to continually monitor interest rates and consider converting portions of the Companys debt from floating rates to fixed rates should conditions be favorable for such interest rate swaps or hedges.

Prior Period Restatement
During preparation of the 3rd quarter Fiscal 2006 financial statements, the Company discovered an error in its accounting for the treatment of foreign subsidiary losses for income tax purposes in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005 and certain non-income tax-based franchise taxes in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005 and several prior fiscal years. A clerical error in the calculation of the tax effects of foreign losses resulted in an understatement of the Companys fiscal 2005 consolidated provision for income taxes by approximately $129,000. In addition, for several years, the Company has applied the payment of non-income based franchise taxes against income taxes payable. Due to improper income taxes payable account reconciliation procedures, this error was not detected. The Company did not recognize general and administrative expense when the franchise taxes were paid. Proper recognition of these franchise taxes in general and administrative expenses reduces reported net income by approximately $86,000 in fiscal 2005, $53,000 in fiscal 2004, $47,000 in fiscal 2003, $26,000 in fiscal 2002 and approximately $53,000 in fiscal 2001 and years prior. These adjustments did not have a material impact on reported cash flows. The effect of these errors on reported net income is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Management has determined that the error was the result of a control deficiency with respect to the Companys procedures in calculating and reporting its franchise tax and the treatment of foreign losses in the provision for income taxes under SFAS 109, and the proper reconciliation of those items to related consolidated balance sheet accounts. Management believes that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that results in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The Company has recently employed additional experienced financial staff, as reported in its Form 8-K filed December 20, 2005, to address this weakness and has amended its procedures for the preparation and review of recorded income tax amounts included in the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Management has reviewed the impact of these errors on reported results of operations for the years affected, utilizing criteria set forth in Staff Accounting Bulletin 99, including the qualitative and quantitative elements outlined in that statement. Management has determined that the impact of this adjustment in each of the years affected is not material to
21
reported results of operations on either a qualitative or quantitative basis in the respective years. Based on this determination, the Company does not plan to re-file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2005.

Net sales
Consolidated net sales decreased $1.8 million for the three months ended November 30, 2005 and increased $1.4 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2005, as compared to the same periods ended November 30, 2004. Display segment sales decreased $1.7 million for the three-month comparative period and increased $0.4 million for the nine-month comparative period. Sales within the Wholesale Distribution segment were flat for the three-month comparative period and increased $1.0 million for the nine-month comparative period.
The net decrease in Display Segment sales for the three months ended November 30, 2005 is primarily attributed to declines within the Monitor and Data Display CRTs divisions, as compared to the same periods ended November 30, 2004. The Monitor divisions sales declined $1.0 million over the three-month period due to the fulfillment of a military contract for replacement CRTs earlier in fiscal 2006, which has not been renewed. The Data Display CRTs division sales declined $0.5 million over the three-month period due to a larger concentration of lower priced replacement CRTs in the current quarters
22
sales mix compared to the prior year period. Sales of the Entertainment CRTs and Electron Gun and Components divisions declined $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively over the comparable three-month period.
Display Segment net sales increased $0.4 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2005 as compared to the same period a year ago. This increase is the result of a $1.1 million increase in the Data Display CRTs divisions sales due to improved sales of projection tubes, which carry a higher selling price than replacement CRTs, in the first two quarters of fiscal 2006, partially offset by a $0.4 million decline in the Entertainment CRTs divisions sales. The Monitors division and the Electron Gun and Components division sales reflected slight declines of $0.1 million each for the comparative periods.
The Company is the primary supplier of replacement television CRTs to the domestic entertainment market. A large portion of the Entertainment CRTs divisions sales (37%) are to major television retailers as replacements for products sold under manufacturer and extended warranties. Due to continued lower retail sales prices for mid-size television sets (25 to 30), fewer extended warranties were sold by retailers, a trend consistent with the past two fiscal years. The Company remains the primary supplier of product to meet manufacturers standard warranties. Growth in this division will be impacted by the timing and number of extended warranties sold for the larger, more expensive sets. Because the Company is in the replacement market, it has the ability to track retail sales trends and, accordingly, can attempt to adjust quantities of certain size CRTs carried in stock and reduce exposure to obsolescence.
Sales in the Electron Gun and Components division have declined during recent fiscal years due to weaker demand for electron gun and stem sales. Electron gun sales have historically been dependent upon the demand by domestic and foreign television CRT remanufacturers. These sales have declined over the past few years as consumers move towards purchasing new technology as opposed to repairing existing sets. The Companys Wintron location is in the process of transitioning to two newer camera technologies. One such technology will assist border guards with under car inspections and another will assist correctional facilities with the supervision of inmates. If this transition is successful, the Company believes these new technologies will have a positive impact on the component division sales.
Wholesale Distribution segment net sales were flat for the three-month period, and increased $1.0 million for the nine- month period, ended November 30, 2005 compared to the same periods a year ago. Management attributes the fiscal year to date increase to opening a new call center in the second half of fiscal 2005. This call center acts as a consumer and dealer support center for both in-warranty and out-of-warranty household products, appliances, parts and accessories for Black & Decker, Delonghi, Norelco, Coby and various other manufacturers. This call center also acts as a technical support center for these same manufacturers. Other increases within this segment reflect increased volume of sales to Best Buy and Applica for the comparative periods.
Gross margins
Consolidated gross margins decreased from 33.7% to 32.8% for the third quarter and from 33.3% to 32.4% for the nine months ended November 30, 2005 as compared to the same periods ended November 30, 2004.
Display segment margins decreased from 29.9% to 25.9% and from 30.4% to 26.4% for the comparative three and nine month periods. Gross margins within the Monitor division decreased to 26.3% for the nine months ended November 30, 2005 compared to 31.1% for the same period a year ago and from 30.0% to 26.6% for the three months ended November 30, 2005 compared to the prior year. These decreases are primarily attributable to decreased sales volume at the Companys Aydin, Teltron and Lexel locations, costs associated with the integration of the Three Five Systems operation, higher than expected design costs on certain products, as well as managements decision to close the XKD location at the end of fiscal 2005.
The Wholesale Distribution segment margins increased from 47.3% to 54.9% and from 43.9% to 53.3% for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2005 as compared to the same periods ended November 30, 2004. These increases are
23
primarily due to additional revenue generated from its new call center. Expenses for the call center are classified as operating expenses.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased from 24.7% to 28.8% for the quarter ended November 30, 2005 compared to the quarter ended November 30, 2004 and increased from 23.9% to 25.9% for the nine-month comparative period.
Display segment operating expenses increased $0.2 million for the three-month period, and increased $0.5 million for the nine-month period, ended November 30, 2005, as compared to the comparable prior year periods. Management attributes the majority of these increases to corporate expenses, such as increased professional fees.
Wholesale Distribution segment operating expenses increased $0.2 million and $1.2 million compared to the three and nine month periods a year ago, primarily due to additional expenses associated with the new call center opened in late fiscal 2005. These expenses (primarily payroll and telephone) are classified in general and administrative expense in the consolidated financial statements.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2005 as compared to the same periods a year ago. The Company maintains various debt agreements with different interest rates, most of which are based on the prime rate or LIBOR. These increases in interest expense primarily reflect higher market interest rates in effect during Fiscal 2006 compared Fiscal 2005.
Income taxes
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended November 30, 2005 and November 30, 2004 was 38.5% and 38.2%, respectively. These rates are greater than the Federal statutory rate primarily due to the effect of state taxes and the permanent non-deductibility of certain expenses for tax purposes.
Foreign currency translation
Gains or losses resulting from the transactions with the Companys UK subsidiary are reported in current operations while currency translation adjustments are recognized in a separate component of shareholders equity. There were no significant gains or losses recognized in either period related to the UK subsidiary.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of November 30, 2005, the Company had total cash of $1.8 million. The Companys working capital was $42.8 million and $37.2 million at November 30, 2005 and February 28, 2005, respectively. In recent years, the Company has financed its growth and cash needs primarily through income from operations, borrowings under revolving credit facilities and long-term debt. Liquidity provided by operating activities of the Company is reduced by working capital requirements, largely inventories and accounts receivable, debt service, capital expenditures, product line additions and dividends.
The Company specializes in certain products representing trailing-edge technology that may not be available from other sources, and may not be currently manufactured. In many instances, the Companys products are components of larger display systems for which immediate availability is critical for the customer. Accordingly, the Company enjoys higher gross margins, but typically has larger investments in inventories than those of its competitors.
24
The Company continues to monitor its cash and financing positions, seeking to find ways to lower its interest costs and to produce positive operating cash flow. The Company examines possibilities to grow its business as opportunities present themselves, such as new sales contracts or niche acquisitions. There could be an impact on working capital requirements to fund this growth. As in the past, the intent is to finance such projects with operating cash flows or existing bank lines; however, more permanent sources of capital may be required in certain circumstances. In May 2005, the Company acquired the IDS division of Three Five Systems, Inc. The acquisition consisted of cash to the seller of approximately $1.4 million total consideration.
Cash provided by operations for the nine months ended November 30, 2005 was $1.9 million as compared to cash provided of $1.8 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2004. This slight increase is attributable to improved collections of receivables as compared to the same period a year ago and the impact of reduced sales in the comparable third quarters, partially offset by increases in inventory over the comparable periods.
Investing activities used cash of $2.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2006, compared to $5.9 million for fiscal 2005. This decrease primarily reflects cash of approximately $1.4 million used to acquire the IDS division of Three Five Systems, Inc. during fiscal 2006 compared to cash of approximately $5.3 million used to acquire certain assets of Evans and Sutherland, Inc. during fiscal 2005. Capital expenditures increased $1.3 million for the comparable periods. These expenditures relate primarily to investments in new computer equipment within the Companys monitors division and upgrades to the call center in the Wholesale Distribution segment.
Financing activities provided cash of $1.2 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2005, compared to cash provided of $5.2 million for the same period a year ago. The Company executed a new line of credit in November 2004, which provided a higher borrowing availability in conjunction with its acquisition activities. The increase in borrowings was partially offset by the Companys decision to repurchase $317,000 of its common stock in fiscal 2006. No shares were repurchased in fiscal 2005.
The Companys debt agreements with financial institutions contain affirmative and negative covenants, including requirements related to tangible net worth and debt service coverage and new loans. Additionally, dividend payments, capital expenditures and acquisitions have certain restrictions. Substantially all of the Companys retained earnings are restricted based upon these covenants.
The Company was not in compliance with the consolidated Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio covenant under the Line of Credit agreements at November 30, 2005. On January 17, 2006, the Company obtained a waiver of this default from the lender. The Company expects to be in compliance with the financial covenants over the next twelve months based on current financial projections and the availability of subordinated advances from the Companys Chief Executive Officer, if required.
The Company has a stock repurchase program, approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in increments starting in fiscal 1998, pursuant to which it is authorized to repurchase up to 462,500 shares of the Companys common stock in the open market. The Company repurchased 25,621 shares in May 2005. No shares were repurchased in fiscal 2005. Under this program, an additional 144,900 shares remain authorized to be repurchased by the Company at November 30, 2005.
On January 11, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a continuation of the stock repurchase program, and authorized the repurchase of up to 600,000 additional shares of the Companys common stock, depending on the market price of the shares. There is no minimum or maximum number of shares required to be repurchased under the program.
The Company paid a cash dividend of $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005. The policy regarding future payments of dividends will be reviewed periodically by the Board of Directors and will be based on the earnings and financial position of the Company and other factors which the Board of Directors deems appropriate.

Critical Accounting Policies
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon the Companys consolidated financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and related notes. The accounting policies that may involve a higher degree of judgments, estimates, and complexity include reserves on inventories, revenue recognition, the allowance for bad debts and warranty reserves. The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in determining its estimates:
Reserves on inventories
Reserves on inventories result in a charge to operations when the estimated net realizable value declines below cost. Management regularly reviews the Companys investment in inventories for declines in value and establishes reserves when it is apparent that the expected net realizable value of the inventory falls below its carrying amount. Management considers the projected demand for CRTs in this estimate of net realizable value. Management is able to identify consumer buying trends, such as size and application, well in advance of supplying replacement CRTs. Thus, the Company is able to adjust inventory-stocking levels according to the projected demand. The average life of a CRT is five to seven years, at which time the Companys replacement market develops. Management reviews inventory levels on a quarterly basis. Such reviews include observations of product development trends of the OEMs, new products being marketed, and technological advances relative to the product capabilities of the Companys existing inventories. There have been no significant changes in managements estimates in fiscal 2006 and 2005; however, the Company cannot guarantee the accuracy of future forecasts since these estimates are subject to change based on market conditions.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized on the sale of products when the products are shipped, all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied, and the collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Companys delivery term typically is F.O.B. shipping point.
In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issue 00-10, shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified in net sales in the consolidated statements of income. Shipping and handling costs incurred are classified in selling and delivery in the consolidated statements of income.
A portion of the Companys revenue is derived from contracts to manufacture CRTs to a buyers specification. These contracts are accounted for under the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position No. 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. These contracts are fixed-price and cost-plus contracts and are recorded on the percentage of completion basis using the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion as the measurement basis for progress toward completion and revenue recognition. Any losses identified on contracts are recognized immediately. Contract accounting requires significant judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract costs and making related assumptions for schedule and technical issues. With respect to contract change orders, claims or similar items, judgment must be used in estimating related amounts and assessing the potential for realization. These amounts are only included in contract value when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable.
The Wholesale Distribution segment has several distribution agreements that it accounts for using the gross revenue basis as prescribed by EITF issue 99-19. The Company uses the gross method because the Company has general inventory risk,
26
physical loss inventory risk and credit risk. The call center service revenue is recognized based on written pricing agreements with each manufacturer, on a per call, per email or per standard mail basis.
Allowance for bad debts
The allowance for bad debts is determined by reviewing all accounts receivable and applying historical credit loss experience to the current receivable portfolio with consideration given to the current condition of the economy, assessment of the financial position of the creditors as well as past payment history and overall trends in past due accounts compared to established thresholds. The Company monitors credit exposure and assesses the adequacy of the allowance for bad debts on a regular basis. Historically, the Companys allowance has been sufficient for any customer write-offs. Although the Company cannot guarantee future results, management believes its policies and procedures relating to customer exposure are adequate.
Warranty reserves
The warranty reserve is determined by recording a specific reserve for known warranty issues and a general reserve based on historical claims experience. The Company considers actual warranty claims compared to net sales, then adjusts its reserve liability accordingly. Actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the reserve. Management believes that historically its procedures have been adequate and does not anticipate that its assumptions are reasonably likely to change in the future.
Other Accounting Policies
Other loss contingencies are recorded as liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Disclosure is required when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded provision. Contingent liabilities are often resolved over long time periods. Estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple factors that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties.
Forward-Looking Information
This report contains forward-looking statements and information that is based on managements beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to management. When used in this document, the words anticipate, believe, estimate, intends, will, and expect and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: business conditions, rapid or unexpected technological changes, product development, inventory risks due to shifts in product demand, competition, domestic and foreign government relations, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, rising costs for components or unavailability of components, the timing of orders booked, lender relationships, and the risk factors listed from time to time in the Companys reports filed with the Commission.
27
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Companys primary market risks include fluctuations in interest rates and variability in interest rate spread relationships, such as prime to LIBOR spreads. Approximately $24.9 million of outstanding debt at November 30, 2005 related to long-term indebtedness under variable rate debt. Interest on the outstanding balance of this debt will be charged based on a variable rate related to the prime rate or the LIBOR rate. Both rate bases are incremented for margins specified in their agreements. Thus, the Companys interest rate is subject to market risk in the form of fluctuations in interest rates. The effect of a hypothetical one percentage point increase across all maturities of variable rate debt would result in a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in pre-tax net income assuming no further changes in the amount of borrowings subject to variable rate interest from amounts outstanding at November 30, 2005. The Company does not trade in derivative financial instruments.
The Company has a subsidiary in the U.K., which is not material, but uses the British pound as its functional currency. Due to its limited operations outside of the U.S., the Companys exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies or to weakening economic conditions in foreign markets is not expected to significantly impact the Companys financial position.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During preparation of the 3rd quarter Fiscal 2006 financial statements, the Company discovered an error in its accounting for the treatment of foreign subsidiary losses for income tax purposes in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005 and certain non-income tax-based franchise taxes in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005 and several prior fiscal years. Management has determined that the error was the result of a control deficiency with respect to the Companys procedures in correctly calculating and reporting its franchise tax and the treatment of foreign losses in the provision for income taxes under SFAS 109, and the proper reconciliation of those items to related consolidated balance sheet accounts. Management believes that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that results in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The Company has recently employed additional experienced financial staff, as reported in its Form 8-K filed December 20, 2005, to address this weakness and has amended its procedures for the preparation and review of recorded income tax amounts, including the preparation of the Companys November 30, 2005 consolidated financial statements.
Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2005. We perform this evaluation on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures can be reported in our annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of November 30, 2005.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have not been any changes in the our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting other than as described above.
