Note 1. – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions.

As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual consolidated financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, including a description of the accounting policies followed by the Company, contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2014, as filed with the Commission. There are no material changes in accounting policy during the six months ended August 31, 2014.

The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated 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, 2014 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

Note 2. – Banking & Liquidity

In fiscal 2014, with the sale of the Company’s Aydin Displays, Inc and Z-Axis, Inc. subsidiaries, the Company repaid the line of credit and two term loans. Currently, the only remaining debt of the Company is $0.3 million owed on a building owned by its subsidiary, Teltron Technologies, Inc. in Birdsboro, PA.

The Company is currently operating using cash from operations and investing activities. The Company has a $19.0 million working capital balance at August 31, 2014, including $8.3 million in liquid assets and $20.8 million working capital balance at February 28, 2014, including $8.4 million in liquid assets.

The Company believes it can continue to operate the Company with existing cash flows for the current level of business. The Company has selected a new banking partner, Fifth Third Bank. The Company is transitioning its banking relationship to the new bank.

Note 3. – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May, 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue with Contracts from Customers”. ASU 2014-09 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The new guidance(i) removes inconsistencies, and weaknesses in revenue requirements, (ii) provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, (iii) improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets, (iv) provides more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements, and (v) simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer.

The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”. ASU 2014-08 changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modified related disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as: (i) a disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale that represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results or (ii) an acquired business or nonprofit activity that is classified as held for sale on the date of acquisition. The standard states that a strategic shift could include a disposal of (i) a major geographical area of operations, (ii) a major line of business, (iii) a major equity method investment, or (iv) other major parts of an entity. Under current U.S. GAAP, an entity is prohibited from reporting a discontinued operation if it has certain continuing cash flows or involvement component after the disposal. The new guidance eliminates these criteria.

The standard expands the disclosures for discontinued operations and requires new disclosures related to individually material disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation, an entity’s continuing involvement with a discontinued operation following the disposal date and retained equity method investments in a discontinued operation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within that year. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 8. – Shareholder’s Equity

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income or loss 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 (loss) per share is calculated in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings (loss) per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six month periods ended August 31, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands, except per share data):

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

For the six-month period ended August 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized general and administrative expenses of $4.5 thousand and $3.7 thousand, respectively, related to share-based compensation. The liability for the share-based compensation recognized is presented in the consolidated balance sheet as part of additional paid in capital. As of August 31, 2014, total unrecognized compensation costs related to stock options granted was $10.4 thousand. The unrecognized stock option compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 1 year.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the Company to estimate the expected term of the stock option grants and expected future stock price volatility over the term. The term represents the expected period of time the Company believes the options will remain outstanding based on historical information. Estimates of expected future stock price volatility are based on the historic volatility of the Company’s common stock, which represents the standard deviation of the differences in the weekly stock closing price, adjusted for dividends and stock splits.

Ten thousand and nineteen thousand options were granted during the six month periods ended August 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Stock Repurchase Program

The Company has a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which it had been authorized to repurchase up to 2,632,500 shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market. On January 20, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a one time continuation of the stock repurchase program, and authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1,500,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market. There is no minimum number of shares required to be repurchased under the program. During the six month period ended August 31, 2014, the Company purchased 626,740 shares at an average price of $3.63 per share and during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2014 the Company purchased 572,597 shares at an average price of $3.78 per share. Under this program, an additional 1,005,769 shares remain authorized to be repurchased by the Company at August 31, 2014.

Note 9. – Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the six months ended August 31, 2013 and 2014 was 34.8% and (14.7) %, respectively. These rates differ from the Federal statutory rate primarily due to the effect of the change in the valuation allowance on the net operating loss carry-forward, state taxes, the permanent non-deductibility of certain expenses for tax purposes, and research and experimentation credits. The disparity of the effective rate from August 31, 2013 compared to 2014 is due largely to the Company not qualifying for the Domestic Production Activities deduction, a reduction in state income taxes due to having a loss in earnings and of the change in the valuation allowance on the net operating loss carry- forward.

Note 10. – Discontinued Operations

On August 30, 2013, the Company completed the sale of the assets and the transfer of specified liabilities of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Aydin Displays Inc. (“Aydin”). Aydin’s assets were sold to a newly formed acquisition affiliate of Sparton Corp. for a combination of cash totaling $15 million, plus an additional earn-out potential that could be in excess of $6 million dollars based upon the achievement of reaching certain projected levels of EBITDA generated by the “new” Aydin in the subsequent 12-month period to the August 30, 2013 closing. The sale provisions included a holdback of $1.2 million on the proceeds which was put into an escrow account until August 30, 2014. The Company received the funds in September. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of the Aydin assets of $2.9 million pre-tax. The potential earn-out is not included in the gain recognized. Along with the sale, the Company signed a lease agreement with the buyer, whereby the Company rented a building owned by another subsidiary of the Company to the buyer with no rent for a five year period. The Company deferred $0.6 million of the gain, and will recognize it as rental income over the five-year period. Aydin had net sales of $8.3 million and pre-tax net income of $0.5 million for the six months ending August 30, 2013 before the sale.

On January 16, 2014, the Company sold their wholly-owned subsidiary, Z-Axis, Inc. The sale includes Z-Axis as well as its BEAR Power Supplies and Boundless Technologies business units. Z-Axis, Inc. was sold to one of the subsidiary’s original founders for approximately $9 million in cash and a $1 million dollar note. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of $5.4 million pre-tax. Z-Axis, Inc. had $7.8 million in net sales and pre-tax net profit of $0.6 million for the ten and a half months of fiscal 2014 before the sale.

On March 26, 2014 with an effective date of February 28, 2014, the Company completed the sale of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Lexel Imaging, Inc. to Citadal Partners, LLC for approximately $3.9 million, consisting of $1.0 million cash payable over 180 days and included in current assets as a note and a guarantee to purchase $2.9 million in inventory over a five year period. Citadal Partners has not paid the balance of the $1.0 million. The Company and Citadal are considering arbitration to resolve the matter. The inventory was adjusted to its net realizable value as part of the sale. The Company recognized a loss on the sale of $4.4 million pre-tax. Lexel Imaging, Inc. had net sales of $ 7.6 million and a pre-tax net loss of $0.8 million for the twelve months ending February 28, 2014.

Overview

The Company is a worldwide leader in the manufacturing and distribution of a wide range of display devices, encompassing, among others, industrial, military, medical, and simulation display solutions. The Company is comprised of one segment - the manufacturing and distribution of displays and display components. The Company is organized into four interrelated operations aggregated into one reportable segment pursuant to the aggregation criteria of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 280 “Segment Reporting”:

•

Simulation and Training Products – offers a complete range of projection display systems for use in training and simulation, military, medical, entertainment and industrial applications.

•

Data Display CRTs– offers a wide range of cathode ray tubes (CRTs) for use in data display screens, including computer terminal monitors and medical monitoring equipment.

•

Broadcast and Control Center Products – offers high-end visual display products for use in video walls and command and control centers.

•

Cyber Secure Products – offers advanced TEMPEST technology, also known as Emanation Security EMSEC, products and custom engineering solutions to include extreme environmental performance and survivability technologies.

During fiscal 2015, management of the Company is focusing key resources on strategic efforts to grow its business through internal sales or through niche acquisitions that enhance the profitability and sales of the Company’s more profitable product lines. Challenges facing the Company during these efforts include:

Liquidity - As of August 31, 2014, the Company is operating using cash from operations and investing activities. The Company believes it can operate the Company with existing cash flows for the current level of business. Should business increase dramatically or an acquisition candidate be found, the Company may need to find more permanent sources of capital to fund the growth.

Inventory management – The Company’s business units utilize different inventory components than the divisions had in the past. The Company has a monthly reserve at each of its divisions to offset any obsolescence although most purchases are for current orders, which should reduce the amount of obsolescence in the future. The Company still has CRT inventory in stock and, although it believes the inventory will be sold in the future, will continue to reserve for any additional obsolescence. Management believes the adequacy of its inventory reserves at August 31, 2014 and February 28, 2014 to be adequate.

Net sales

Consolidated net sales were down 7.4% for the six months ended August 31, 2014 compared to the six months ended August 31, 2013. Sales for the Company’s AYON Visual Solutions division were down 60.1% for the six months ending August 31, 2014 when compared to last year’s six months ending August 31, 2013. This division’s business is project driven and last year in the first quarter they completed a large job for a cable news network, which they did not have this year. The industry this division operates in just completed a major trade show for the year and new quoting opportunities are being received for projects later this year. We expect this division to improve over last year’s results by the end of the fiscal year. The CRT division increased their sales by 14.9% for the six months ended August 31, 2014 over the six months ended August 31, 2013 or $159 thousand due to overseas orders and an increase with their largest customer. The business with the largest customer is expected to continue for at least the next several years. This division’s primary business is in flight simulation. The Display Systems division showed a decrease of 4.4% due to technical issues with a large project. These issues are expected to be resolved soon and this division is expected to have a profitable second half of the fiscal year. AYON CyberSecurity sales’ increased by 2.0% due to a large order from a government agency that shipped in late May. This division is expected to exceed last year’s results due to the increases in the customer base.

Gross margins

Consolidated gross profits increased by 146.6% for the six months ended August 31, 2014 compared to the six months ended August 31, 2013. The Company had an overall gross margin of 15.8% for the six months ended August 31, 2014 compared to a 5.9% gross margin for the six months ended August 31, 2013.

Every division showed an improvement in their gross margin percentage. The Company’s two new divisions, AYON Visual Solutions and AYON CyberSecurity, had lower gross margins than the other more established divisions. AYON Visual Solutions is a distributor of specialized displays, so it will consistently have lower margins than the other manufacturers in the group as distributors typically operate on smaller margins. The Company expects AYON Visual Solutions gross margins to improve as they win bids on new projects. AYON CyberSecurity improved its gross margins by 16.0%, but still came in with a negative 35.4%. The division is still working to improve its efficiencies and cut costs in the manufacturing area of its business. As its revenues increase, management hopes to improve on their efficiencies of scale and generate more gross profit dollars. The Company is looking at ways to cut costs at this division including merging it with the VDC Display division. The Data Display division gross margins increased from 7.8% for the six months ended August 31, 2013 to 21.5% for the six months ended August 31, 2014, due to customer and product mix. They expect to have steady margins with their flight simulator customers while continuing to move slower moving items overseas at reduced margins. We would expect to see the margins remain above last year’s levels.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased from 30.8% for the six months ended August 31, 2013 to 33.8% for the six months ended August 31, 2014. This was primarily due to a decrease in the revenue base to absorb the corporate overhead. The Company was able to control fixed costs, such as rent and other administrative costs, on flat sales volumes. Overall expenses increased by $35.0 thousand. The Company expects to continue to contain these costs while increasing revenues.

Interest expense

The Company’s interest expense has decreased dramatically, as it no longer has a line of credit or any other debt except for a mortgage on a building it owns in Pennsylvania and borrowings related to margin account trading of securities. The interest expense for the six months ending August 31, 2014, was $27.9 thousand compared to $686.4 thousand for the six months ending August 31, 2013.

Income taxes

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In fiscal 2014, with the sale of the Company’s Aydin Displays, Inc and Z-Axis, Inc. subsidiaries, the Company repaid all remaining bank debt in January, 2014, except for the mortgage on a building owned by the Company’s Teltron, Inc. subsidiary, which included a line of credit and two term loans. At August 31, 2013, the Company had repaid all outstanding debt with PNC Bank except for $1.2 million on a term loan, $0.5 million owed to the CEO and the mortgage on the building in Birdsboro, PA. Currently, the only remaining debt of the Company is $0.3 million it owes on a building owned by its subsidiary, Teltron Technologies, Inc. in Birdsboro, PA.

The Company is currently operating using cash from operations and investing activities. The Company has a $19.0 million working capital balance at August 31, 2014 including $8.3 million in liquid assets and $20.8 million working capital balance at February 28, 2014, including $8.4 million in liquid assets.

The Company continually monitors its cash and financing positions in order to find ways to lower its costs and to produce positive operating cash flow. The Company examines possibilities to grow its business through internal sales 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; however, more permanent sources of capital may be required in certain circumstances.

Cash used by operations for the six months ended August 31, 2014 was $0.8 million. The net income from operations was $0.3 million and adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash were $1.1 million including depreciation and reserves. Changes in working capital provided $0.3 million, primarily due to a decrease in inventories of $1.0 million, a decrease in payables of $0.6 million and an increase in notes receivable of $0.7 million. Cash used in operations for the six months ended August 31, 2013 was $1.0 million.

Investing activities used cash of $1.8 million for the six months ended August 31, 2014 primarily as a result of, $2.2 million from the purchase of investments, offset by the proceeds of $0.5 million from the sale of the former Chroma property, compared to $15.5 million from the sale of the Company’s Aydin Displays subsidiary ($15.0 million) and the Bossier City property ($0.5 million) during the six months ended August 31, 2013.

Financing activities provided cash of $1.6 million for the six months ended August 31, 2014, due to the proceeds of margin account borrowings in the investment account of $3.9 million and the use of funds to repurchase treasury stock of $2.3 million, compared to cash used of $13.1 million for the six months ended August 31, 2013, reflecting the repayment of debt of $13.3 million and the reissuance of treasury stock of $0.2 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the interim

Video Display Corporation and Subsidiaries

August 31, 2014

(unaudited)

condensed consolidated 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 Company’s 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 reviews inventory levels on a quarterly basis. Such reviews include observations of product development trends of the original equipment manufacturers, new products being marketed, and technological advances relative to the product capabilities of the Company’s existing inventories. Management believes its inventory reserves at August 31, 2014 and February 28, 2014 to be adequate.

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 Company’s delivery term typically is F.O.B. shipping point.

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605-45 “Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations”, shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified in net sales in the consolidated income statements. Shipping and handling costs incurred are classified in selling and delivery in the consolidated income statements.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by reviewing all accounts receivable and applying 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 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 doubtful accounts on a regular basis. Historically, the Company’s 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 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 its procedures historically 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May, 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue with Contracts from Customers”. ASU 2014-09 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The new guidance (i) removes inconsistencies, and weaknesses in revenue requirements, (ii) provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, (iii) improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets, (iv) provides more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements, and (v) simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”. ASU 2014-08 changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modified related disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as: (i) a disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale that represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results or (ii) an acquired business or nonprofit activity that is classified as held for sale on the date of acquisition. The standard states that a strategic shift could include a disposal of (i) a major geographical area of operations, (ii) a major line of business, (iii) a major equity method investment, or (iv) other major parts of an entity. Under the current U.S. GAAP, an entity is prohibited from reporting a discontinued operation if it has certain continuing cash flows or involvement component after the disposal. The new guidance eliminates these criteria.
