Vishay Precision Group, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

Background

Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (“VPG” or the “Company”) is an internationally recognized designer, manufacturer and marketer of sensors, and sensor-based measurement systems, as well as specialty resistors and strain gages based upon the Company's proprietary technology. The Company provides precision products and solutions, many of which are “designed-in” by its customers, specializing in the growing markets of stress, force, weight, pressure, and current measurements.

Interim Financial Statements

These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for the presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair summary of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014, included in VPG’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2015. The results of operations for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

VPG reports interim financial information for 13-week periods beginning on a Sunday and ending on a Saturday, except for the first quarter, which always begins on January 1, and the fourth quarter, which always ends on December 31. The four fiscal quarters in 2015 and 2014 end on the following dates:



	2015	2014
Quarter 1	March 28,	March 29,
Quarter 2	June 27,	June 28,
Quarter 3	September 26,	September 27,
Quarter 4	December 31,	December 31,

Restatement of Previously Reported Financial Information

In conjunction with the June 27, 2015 quarterly financial statement close process, the Company determined that transactions at one of its Indian subsidiaries had been recorded in their local currency, the Indian rupee, instead of their functional currency, the U.S. dollar, in prior periods. The principal line items impacted in the Indian subsidiary’s financial statements, and therefore the Company's consolidated condensed financial statements, are inventory, property and equipment, net, depreciation expense, costs of products sold, foreign currency re-measurement gains and losses, and foreign currency translation gains and losses recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity. Consequently, the Company has restated certain prior period amounts to correct these errors. The Company has also corrected certain other identified immaterial errors related to prior periods.

The impact of these errors was not material to the Company in any of those prior periods. The Company has corrected all prior period errors for all periods presented, including each of the quarters and six months ended June 27, 2015 and June 28, 2014, by restating the consolidated condensed financial statements and other financial information included herein. See Note 12 for the impact of these immaterial corrections on previously reported amounts.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. The basis of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The ASU is effective for public entities for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted

-11-

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation (continued)

under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and either full or modified retrospective application is required. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and the effects of this standard on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows are not yet known.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, "Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard update requires an entity to present debt issuance costs on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability as opposed to an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. The update is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued, and the new guidance would be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The adoption of this standard update is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Restructuring Costs

Restructuring costs reflect the cost reduction programs implemented by the Company. Restructuring costs are expensed during the period in which the Company determines it will incur those costs and all requirements for accrual are met. Because these costs are recorded based upon estimates, actual expenditures for the restructuring activities may differ from the initially recorded costs. If the initial estimates are too low or too high, the Company could be required to either record additional expense in future periods or to reverse part of the previously recorded charges.

2015 Programs

The Company recorded restructuring costs of $0.4 million during the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 related to cost reduction programs in two of its facilities in Asia and one in the United Kingdom.

A voluntary termination program was initiated by the Company at its subsidiary in Beijing, China in response to challenging economic conditions. During the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015, restructuring costs totaling $0.2 million were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance, covering 51 production employees. As of June 27, 2015, all restructuring costs have been paid.

A voluntary termination program was initiated by the Company at its subsidiary in Tianjin, China in response to challenging economic conditions. During the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015, restructuring costs totaling $0.1 million were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance, covering 11 production employees. As of June 27, 2015, substantially all of the restructuring costs have been paid. The remaining costs are recorded within other accrued expenses on the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet and are anticipated to be paid in the third quarter of 2015.

The Company recorded restructuring costs of $0.1 million during the fiscal quarter ended March 28, 2015. These costs were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance, at one of the Company's subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, and were incurred in connection with a cost reduction program. The restructuring costs were fully paid in the first quarter of 2015.

2014 Programs

The Company recorded restructuring costs of $0.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2014. This included two cost reduction programs implemented by the Company.

Restructuring costs of $0.5 million were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance and a statutory retirement allowance, at the Company's subsidiary in Canada, and were incurred in connection with a cost reduction program. The restructuring costs were fully paid by the end of the first quarter of 2015.

Restructuring costs of $0.2 million were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance, at one of the Company’s subsidiaries in the United States, and were incurred in connection with a cost reduction program. As of June 27, 2015, the restructuring costs have been fully paid.

Note 3 – Income Taxes

VPG calculates the tax provision for interim periods using an estimated annual effective tax rate methodology which is based on a current projection of full-year earnings before taxes amongst different taxing jurisdictions and adjusted for the impact of discrete quarterly items. The effective tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015 was 16.5% versus 21.0% for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2014. The effective tax rate for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 was 17.2% versus 21.0% for the six fiscal months ended June 28, 2014. The primary change in the effective tax rate for both periods presented is the result of changes in the geographic mix of pretax earnings and the recording of net tax benefits associated with foreign exchange variations. Additionally, in the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2014, VPG initiated changes to its corporate entity structure. As a result of this reorganization, the Company recorded a discrete income tax expense of $1.9 million related to the repatriation of foreign earnings and a $2.0 million discrete income tax benefit related to a reversal of an existing valuation allowance associated with U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards.

The provision for income taxes consists of federal, state, and foreign income taxes. The effective tax rates for the fiscal quarters and six months ended June 27, 2015 and June 28, 2014 represent VPG’s expected tax rate on reported income before income tax and tax adjustments. VPG operates in an international environment with significant operations in various locations outside the United States. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting VPG’s earnings and the applicable tax rates in the various locations in which VPG operates.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s tax positions and determining the provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course

-13-

Note 3 – Income Taxes (continued)

of business, there are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. VPG establishes reserves for tax-related uncertainties based on estimates of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. These reserves are established when VPG believes that certain positions might be challenged despite its belief that the tax return positions are supportable. VPG adjusts these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances and the provision for income taxes includes the impact of reserve provisions and changes to reserves that are considered appropriate. Penalties and tax-related interest expense are reported as a component of income tax expense. The Company anticipates $0.5 million to $0.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits to be reversed within the next twelve months of the balance sheet date, due to the expiration of statutes of limitation and cash payments in certain jurisdictions.

Note 4 – Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt consists of the following (in thousands):



	June 27, 2015		December 31, 2014
2013 Credit Agreement - U.S. term facility	$	5,000	$	6,000
2013 Credit Agreement - Canadian term facility	11,250		12,000
Exchangeable unsecured notes, due 2102	4,097		4,097
Other debt	654		736
	21,001		22,833
Less: current portion	16,366		5,120
	$	4,635	$	17,713

In January 2013 the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement. The terms of the credit agreement require VPG to comply with customary covenants, representations and warranties, including the maintenance of specific financial ratios. The financial maintenance covenants include a tangible net worth ratio, a leverage ratio and a fixed charges coverage ratio. During the second quarter of 2015, VPG was in compliance with the tangible net worth and leverage ratios, but VPG was not in compliance with the fixed charges coverage ratio. The Company obtained a waiver from the lenders respecting such non-compliance dated July 31, 2015. The Company may not be in compliance with the fixed charges coverage ratio in future periods, and the lenders could terminate the credit agreement, and all amounts outstanding pursuant to the credit agreement could become immediately payable. Therefore, the borrowings under the credit agreement have been classified as current as of June 27, 2015. The Company is currently pursuing an amendment to this facility to bring it into compliance, but cannot provide any assurances that it will be able to successfully amend the facility. The Company believes it has sufficient available cash on hand to repay all amounts currently outstanding under the credit agreement.

Additionally, the January 2013 credit agreement requires the Company to deliver to the lenders, within 45 days after the close of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year, certain management-prepared financial statements and an officer’s compliance certificate stating the Company is in compliance with the tangible net worth, leverage and the fixed charges coverage ratios as stipulated in the credit agreement. The Company was not able to provide this information within the 45-day period following June 27, 2015 due to its review and analysis of the functional currency accounting at its Indian subsidiary. The Company obtained a waiver from the lenders on August 18, 2015 permitting it to provide the management-prepared financial statements and officer’s compliance certificate by September 11, 2015.

Note 7 – Share-Based Compensation

The Amended and Restated Vishay Precision Group, Inc. Stock Incentive Program (as amended and restated, the “Plan”) permits the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock. At June 27, 2015, the Company had reserved 484,766 shares of common stock for future grant of equity awards (restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), or stock options) pursuant to the Plan. If any outstanding awards are forfeited by the holder or canceled by the Company, the underlying shares would be available for regrant to others.

On January 20, 2015, VPG’s three executive officers were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs, of which 75% are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate grant-date fair value of $1.0 million and were comprised of 59,325 RSUs as determined using the average of the closing stock prices of the Company's common stock for the last five trading days immediately preceding January 1, 2015. Twenty-five percent of these awards will vest on January 1, 2018, subject to the executives’ continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2018, subject to the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative “free cash” and net earnings goals, and their continued employment.

On March 30, 2015, certain VPG employees were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs, of which 75% are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate target grant-date fair value of $0.3 million and were comprised of 21,743 RSUs. Twenty-five percent of these awards will vest on January 1, 2018 subject to the employees' continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2018, subject to the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative earnings and cash flow goals, and their continued employment.

On May 21, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of an aggregate of 13,300 RSUs to the three independent board members and to the non-executive Chairman of the Board, with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $0.2 million. These RSUs will vest on May 21, 2016, subject to the directors' continued service on the Board.

Note 7 – Share-Based Compensation (continued)

The amount of compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. VPG determines compensation cost for RSUs based on the grant-date fair value of the underlying common stock. The Company recognizes compensation cost for RSUs that are expected to vest and for which performance criteria are expected to be met. The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recognized (in thousands):



	Fiscal quarter ended				Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014		June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014
Restricted stock units	$	149	$	263	$	416	$	485

Share based compensation expense was lower for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, as compared to the comparable prior year periods. In the second quarter of 2015, it was determined that certain performance objectives associated with awards granted to executives and certain employees in 2014 were not likely to be fully met. As a result, that share based compensation expense which was associated with those objectives was reversed to reflect the anticipated performance levels.

Note 8 – Segment Information

VPG reports in three product segments: the Foil Technology Products segment, the Force Sensors segment, and the Weighing and Control Systems segment. The Foil Technology Products reporting segment is comprised of the foil resistor and strain gage operating segments. The Force Sensors reporting segment is comprised of transducers, load cells and modules. The Weighing and Control Systems reporting segment is comprised of instruments, complete systems for process control, and on-board weighing applications.

VPG evaluates reporting segment performance based on multiple performance measures including revenues, gross profits and operating income, exclusive of certain items. Management believes that evaluating segment performance, excluding items such as restructuring costs, acquisition costs, and other items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to the intrinsic operating results of VPG. The following table sets forth reporting segment information (in thousands):

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a valuation hierarchy of the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.

An asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table provides the financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis (in thousands):



			Fair value measurements at reporting date using:
	Total Fair Value		Level 1 Inputs		Level 2 Inputs		Level 3 Inputs
June 27, 2015
Assets
Assets held in rabbi trusts	$	4,701	$	766	$	3,935	$	—

December 31, 2014
Assets
Assets held in rabbi trusts	$	4,725	$	915	$	3,810	$	—

The Company maintains non-qualified trusts, referred to as “rabbi” trusts, to fund payments under deferred compensation and non-qualified pension plans. Rabbi trust assets consist primarily of marketable securities, classified as available-for-sale money market funds at June 27, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and company-owned life insurance assets. The marketable securities held in the rabbi trusts are valued using quoted market prices on the last business day of the period. The company-owned life insurance assets are valued in consultation with the Company’s insurance brokers using the value of underlying assets of the insurance contracts. The fair value measurement of the marketable securities held in the rabbi trust is considered a Level 1 measurement and the measurement of the company-owned life insurance assets is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the long-term debt at June 27, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is approximately $19.6 million and $21.7 million, respectively, compared to its carrying value of $21.0 million and $22.8 million, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using a combination of quoted market prices for similar financing arrangements and expected future payments discounted at risk-adjusted rates. The fair value of long-term debt is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents whose carrying amounts reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets approximate their fair values.

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

Overview

VPG is an internationally recognized designer, manufacturer and marketer of sensors, and sensor-based measurement systems, as well as specialty resistors and strain gages based upon our proprietary technology. We provide precision products and solutions, many of which are “designed-in” by our customers, specializing in the growing markets of stress, force, weight, pressure, and current measurements. A significant portion of our products and solutions are primarily based upon our proprietary foil technology and are produced as part of our vertically integrated structure. We believe this strategy results in higher quality, more cost effective and focused solutions for our customers. Our products are marketed under a variety of brand names that we believe are characterized as having a very high level of precision and quality. Our global operations enable us to produce a wide variety of products in strategically effective geographic locations that also optimize our resources for specific technologies, sensors, assemblies and systems.

The Company also has a long heritage of innovation in precision foil resistors, foil strain gages, and sensors that convert mechanical inputs into an electronic signal for display, processing, interpretation, or control by our instrumentation and systems products. Precision sensors are essential to the accurate measurement, resolution and display of force, weight, pressure, torque, tilt, motion, or acceleration, especially in the legal-for-trade, commercial, and industrial marketplaces. This expertise served as a foundation for our expansion into strain gage instrumentation, load cells, transducers, weighing modules, and complete systems for process control and on-board weighing. Our products are not typically used in the consumer market.

The precision sensor market is integral to the development of intelligent products across a wide variety of end markets upon which we focus, including medical, agricultural, transportation, industrial, avionics, military, and space applications. We believe that as original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) continue a drive to make products “smarter,” they will integrate more sensors and related systems into their solutions to link the mechanical/physical world with digital control and/or response. We believe this offers a substantial growth opportunity for our products and expertise.

Net revenues for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015 were $59.5 million versus $65.2 million for the comparable prior year period. Net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015 were $1.5 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, versus $3.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.

Net revenues for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 were $116.1 million versus $126.4 million for the comparable prior year period. Net earnings attributable to VPG stockholders for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 were $2.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, versus $4.8 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.

The results of operations for the fiscal quarters and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 and June 28, 2014 include items affecting comparability as listed in the reconciliations below. The reconciliations below include certain financial measures which are not recognized in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") including adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per diluted share. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. Non-GAAP measures such as adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per diluted share do not have uniform definitions. These measures, as calculated by VPG, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Management believes that these measures are meaningful because they provide insight with respect to intrinsic operating results. The reconciling items presented below represent significant charges or credits which are important to understanding our intrinsic operations.

Financial Metrics

We utilize several financial measures and metrics to evaluate the performance and assess the future direction of our business. These key financial measures and metrics include net revenues, gross profit margin, end-of-period backlog, book-to-bill ratio, and inventory turnover.

Gross profit margin is computed as gross profit as a percentage of net revenues. Gross profit is generally net revenues less costs of products sold, but could also include certain other period costs. Gross profit margin is clearly a function of net revenues, but also reflects our cost-cutting programs and our ability to contain fixed costs.

End-of-period backlog is one indicator of potential future sales. We include in our backlog only open orders that have been released by the customer for shipment in the next twelve months. If demand falls below customers’ forecasts, or if customers do not control their inventory effectively, they may cancel or reschedule the shipments that are included in our backlog, in many instances without the payment of any penalty. Therefore, the backlog is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods.

Another important indicator of demand in our industry is the book-to-bill ratio, which is the ratio of the amount of product ordered during a period compared with the product that we ship during that period. A book-to-bill ratio that is greater than one indicates

-41-

that demand is higher than current revenues and manufacturing capacities, and it indicates that we may generate increasing revenues in future periods. Conversely, a book-to-bill ratio that is less than one is an indicator of lower demand compared to existing revenues and current capacities and may foretell declining sales.

We focus on our inventory turnover as a measure of how well we are managing our inventory. We define inventory turnover for a financial reporting period as our costs of products sold for the four fiscal quarters ending on the last day of the reporting period divided by our average inventory (computed using each quarter-end balance) for this same period. A higher level of inventory turnover reflects more efficient use of our capital.

The quarter-to-quarter trends in these financial metrics can also be an important indicator of the likely direction of our business. The following tables show net revenues, gross profit margin, the end-of-period backlog, the book-to-bill ratio, and the inventory turnover for our business as a whole and by segment during the five quarters beginning with the second quarter of 2014 through the second quarter of 2015 (dollars in thousands):

Net revenues for the second quarter of 2015 increased 5% from the revenues reported in the first quarter of 2015, with each of the reporting segments contributing to the improvement. The Foil Technology Product segment reflects improved volume coming mainly from the Americas and Asia, while the European market was down slightly. The Force Sensors segment also had an increase in volume, coming mainly from the Americas and European markets. In the Weighing and Control Systems segment, volume improved in the precision weighing and force measurement market sectors in the Americas and Europe. While we see a slight improvement of $0.2 million over the prior quarter in our steel industry business, the impact of excess capacity in steel plants, particularly in China, still remains. Exchange rates had minimal impact on net revenues from the first quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2015.

The gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2015 declined from the first quarter of 2015, with all three reporting segments contributing to the decrease. In the Foil Technology Products segment, despite an increase in revenues, the sequential gross profit margin decreased due to foreign currency effects and other costs. The Force Sensors segment had a reduction in inventory during the second quarter of 2015, resulting in lower gross profit margin when compared to the first quarter of 2015. The Weighing and Control Systems segment had higher variable and fixed manufacturing costs, including labor inefficiencies and other costs, which offset the improvement in volume in the process weighing business from the first quarter to the second quarter of 2015.

Optimize Core Competence

The Company’s core competency and key value proposition is providing customers with proprietary foil technology products and precision measurement sensors and sensor-based systems. Our foil technology resistors and strain gages are recognized as global market leading products that provide high precision and high stability over extreme temperature ranges, and long life. Our force sensor products and our weighing and control systems products are also certified to meet some of the highest levels of precision measurements of force, weight, pressure, torque, tilt, motion, and acceleration. While these competencies form a solid basis for our products, we believe there are several areas that can be optimized, including: increasing our technical sales efforts; continuing to innovate in product performance and design; and refining our manufacturing processes.

Our foil technology research group continues to provide innovations that enhance the capability and performance of our strain gages, while simultaneously reducing their size and power consumption as part of our advanced sensors product line. We believe

-43-

this new foil technology will create new markets as customers “design in” these next generation products in existing and new applications. Our development engineering team is also responsible for creating new processes to further automate manufacturing, and improve productivity and quality. This advanced sensors’ manufacturing technology offers us the capability to produce high-quality foil strain gages in a highly automated environment, which should convert into reduced manufacturing costs, reduce lead times and increase margins.

Our design, research, and product development teams, in partnership with our marketing teams, drive our efforts to bring innovations to market. We intend to leverage our insights into customer demand to continually develop and roll out new, innovative products within our existing lines and to modify our existing core products in ways that make them more appealing, addressing changing customer needs and industry trends in terms of form, fit, and function.

We also seek to achieve significant production cost savings through the transfer, expansion, and construction of manufacturing operations in countries such as Costa Rica, India, Israel and Taiwan, where we can benefit from lower labor costs, improved efficiencies, or available tax and other government-sponsored incentives.

Acquisition Strategy

We expect to make additional strategic acquisitions where opportunities present themselves to grow our segments. Historically, our growth and acquisition strategy has been largely focused on vertical product integration, using our foil strain gages in our force sensor products and incorporating those products into our weighing and control systems. While the acquisition of the George Kelk Corporation ("KELK") business in January 2013 continued that trend, it also resulted in the acquisition of certain optical sensor technology. Along with our recent success in microelectromechanical ("MEMS") technology for on-board weighing, we expect to expand our expertise, and our acquisition focus, outside our traditional vertical approach to other precision sensor solutions in the fields of measurement of force, weight, pressure, torque, tilt, motion, and acceleration. We believe acquired businesses will benefit from improvements we implement to reduce redundant functions and from our current global manufacturing and distribution footprint.

Research and Development

Research and development will continue to play a key role in our efforts to introduce innovative products to generate new sales and to improve profitability. We expect to continue to expand our position as a leading supplier of precision foil technology products. We believe our R&D efforts should provide us with a variety of opportunities to leverage technology, products, and our manufacturing base in order to ultimately improve our financial performance.

Cost Management

To be successful, we believe we must seek new strategies for controlling operating costs. Through automation in our plants, we believe we can optimize our capital and labor resources in production, inventory management, quality control, and warehousing. We are in the process of moving some manufacturing from higher-labor-cost countries to lower-labor-cost countries. This will enable us to become more efficient and cost competitive, and also maintain tighter controls of the operation.

Production transfers, facility consolidations, and other long-term cost-cutting measures require us to initially incur significant severance and other exit costs. We have begun to realize the benefits of our restructuring through lower labor costs and other operating expenses, and expect to continue reaping these benefits in future periods. However, these programs to improve our profitability also involve certain risks which could materially impact our future operating results, as further detailed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2015.

We are presently executing plans to further reduce our costs by consolidating additional manufacturing operations. These plans will require us to incur restructuring and severance costs in future periods. While streamlining and reducing fixed overhead, we are exercising caution so that we will not negatively impact our customer service, or our ability to further develop products and processes.

Foreign Currency

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risks, particularly due to transactions in currencies other than the functional currencies of certain subsidiaries. U.S. GAAP requires that entities identify the “functional currency” of each of their subsidiaries and measure all elements of the financial statements in that functional currency. A subsidiary’s functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates. In cases where a subsidiary is relatively self-contained within a particular country, the local currency is generally deemed to be the functional currency. However, a foreign subsidiary that is a direct and

-44-

integral component or extension of the parent company’s operations generally would have the parent company’s currency as its functional currency. We have subsidiaries that fall into each of these categories.

Foreign Subsidiaries which use the Local Currency as the Functional Currency

Our operations in Europe, Canada, and certain locations in Asia primarily generate and expend cash using local currencies, and accordingly, these subsidiaries utilize the local currency as their functional currency. For those subsidiaries where the local currency is the functional currency, assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets have been translated at the rate of exchange as of the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments do not impact the results of operations and are reported as a separate component of equity.

For those subsidiaries where the local currency is the functional currency, revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. While the translation of revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars does not directly impact the consolidated statement of operations, the translation effectively increases or decreases the U.S. dollar equivalent of revenues generated and expenses incurred in those foreign currencies.

Foreign Subsidiaries which use the U.S. Dollar as the Functional Currency

Our operations in Israel and certain locations in Asia primarily generate cash in U.S. dollars, and accordingly, these subsidiaries utilize the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. For those foreign subsidiaries where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, all foreign currency financial statement amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars. Exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in the results of operations. While these subsidiaries transact most business in U.S. dollars, they may have significant costs, particularly related to payroll, which are incurred in the local currency.

For the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015, exchange rates reduced net revenues by $5.1 million, and costs of products sold and selling, general, and administrative expenses by $4.9 million, when compared to the comparable prior year period. For the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, exchange rates reduced net revenues by $9.5 million, and costs of products sold and selling, general, and administrative expenses by $9.4 million, when compared to the comparable prior year period.

Change versus comparable prior year period	$	(5,654	)			$	(10,286	)
Percentage change versus prior year period	(8.7		)%			(8.1		)%

Changes in net revenues were attributable to the following:



	vs. prior year quarter		vs. prior year- to-date
Change attributable to:
Change in volume	-1.1	%	-0.7	%
Change in average selling prices	0.1	%	0.1	%
Foreign currency effects	-7.7	%	-7.5	%
Net change	-8.7	%	-8.1	%

During the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, the decrease in revenues, as compared to the prior year periods, was due primarily to exchange rate effects, which impacted all reporting segments. The primary currencies contributing to this impact were the Euro, the British pound, and the Canadian dollar.

Gross Profit and Margins

Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was as follows:



	Fiscal quarter ended				Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014 (a)		June 27, 2015 (a)		June 28, 2014 (a)
Gross profit margin	35.3	%	38.2	%	36.2	%	36.9	%

The gross profit margin for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 decreased compared to the comparable prior year periods. This is mainly due to lower gross profit margins in the Force Sensors segments and Weighing and Control Systems segment. Exchange rate effects had a negative impact of $1.8 million and $3.4 million on gross margins for the fiscal quarter and six months ended June 27, 2015, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods.

Segments

Analysis of revenues and gross profit margins for our reportable segments is provided below.

Net change	-6.7	%	-5.2	%

Net revenues decreased for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, as compared to the comparable prior year periods. Negative foreign currency effects, primarily relating to the Euro and the British pound, were the main driver behind the decreased revenues.

Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues for the Foil Technology Products segment was as follows:



	Fiscal quarter ended				Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014 (a)		June 27, 2015 (a)		June 28, 2014 (a)
Gross profit margin	39.6	%	40.5	%	40.5	%	38.9	%

-47-

The gross profit margin decreased for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015, when compared to the prior fiscal year quarter, mainly due to negative exchange rate effects and higher variable and fixed manufacturing costs, including labor and yield inefficiencies, associated with adding headcount for the expansion of our advanced sensor platform. The gross profit margin increased slightly for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, when compared to the prior year. A slight increase in volume and lower variable costs helped to offset the impact of negative exchange rate effects.

Force Sensors

Net revenues of the Force Sensors segment were as follows (dollars in thousands):



	Fiscal quarter ended					Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015			June 28, 2014 (a)		June 27, 2015 (a)			June 28, 2014 (a)

Net change	-7.9	%	-7.6	%

Net revenues decreased for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, as compared to the comparable prior year periods. Negative foreign currency effects, primarily relating to the Euro and the British pound, and volume decreases were the main drivers of the decline. The reduction in volume is primarily due to weakness in the force measurement market sector.

Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues for the Force Sensors segment was as follows:



	Fiscal quarter ended				Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014 (a)		June 27, 2015 (a)		June 28, 2014 (a)
Gross profit margin	19.0	%	22.7	%	20.4	%	21.2	%

The gross profit margin for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 decreased from the comparable prior year periods. Negative foreign currency effects, primarily relating to the Euro and the British pound, were the main drivers for the decline.

Change in volume	-0.3	%	-1.5	%
Change in average selling prices	0.1	%	-0.1	%
Foreign currency effects	-11.9	%	-11.1	%
Net change	-12.1	%	-12.7	%

Net revenues decreased for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, as compared to the comparable prior year periods. This is primarily due to negative foreign currency effects, mainly relating to the Euro, the British pound, Swedish krone, and the Canadian dollar.

Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues for the Weighing and Control Systems segment were as follows:



	Fiscal quarter ended				Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014 (a)		June 27, 2015 (a)		June 28, 2014 (a)
Gross profit margin	43.6	%	48.2	%	44.1	%	47.6	%

The gross profit margin for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 decreased compared to the comparable prior year period, mainly due to foreign currency effects and an unfavorable product mix.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):



	Fiscal quarter ended						Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015			June 28, 2014 (a)			June 27, 2015 (a)			June 28, 2014 (a)
Total SG&A expenses	$	18,396		$	19,897		$	37,144		$	39,060

as a percentage of net revenues	30.9		%	30.5		%	32.0		%	30.9		%

Given the specialized nature of our products and our direct sales approach, we incur significant selling, general, and administrative costs. SG&A expenses for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015 as compared to the comparable prior year period were favorably impacted by $1.6 million in foreign currency effects offset by $0.1 million of increases in personnel costs, professional fees and

-49-

other costs. SG&A expenses for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 as compared to the comparable prior year period were favorably impacted by $3.3 million in foreign currency effects offset by $1.4 million of increases in personnel costs, professional fees and other costs.

Restructuring Costs

Restructuring costs are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):



	Fiscal quarter ended				Six fiscal months ended
	June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014		June 27, 2015		June 28, 2014
Restructuring costs	$	304	$	7	$	382	$	331

The Company recorded restructuring costs of $0.3 million during the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015. These costs were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance, in two of its facilities in Asia. The restructuring costs recorded during the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2014, were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance, at the Company's subsidiary in Canada.

The Company recorded restructuring costs of $0.4 million during the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015. These costs were related to cost reduction programs in two of its facilities in Asia and one in the United Kingdom. The restructuring costs recorded during the six fiscal months ended June 28, 2014 were comprised of employee termination costs, including severance, at the Company's subsidiary in Canada.

Other Income (Expense)

Total interest expense for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 was lower than interest expense in the comparable prior year periods mainly due to lower debt.

Foreign exchange loss	$	(1,238	)	$	(515	)	$	(723	)
Interest income	91			120			(29		)
Other	(196		)	(288		)	92
	$	(1,343	)	$	(683	)	$	(660	)

Foreign currency exchange gains and losses represent the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For the quarter and six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, the change in foreign exchange losses during the periods, as compared to the prior year periods, is largely due to exposure to currency fluctuations with the Euro, the Canadian dollar, the New Israeli shekel and the British pound.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015 was 16.5% versus 21.0% for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2014. The effective tax rate for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 was 17.2% versus 21.0% for the six fiscal months ended June 28, 2014. The primary change in the effective tax rate for both periods presented is the result of changes in the geographical earnings mix, the effect of the legal reorganization that was initiated during the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2014, and the recording of net tax benefits associated with foreign exchange variations.

The effective tax rates reflect the fact that we could not recognize, for accounting purposes, the tax benefit of losses incurred in certain jurisdictions, even though these losses may be available to offset future taxable income. We evaluate our deferred income taxes quarterly to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. We give consideration to whether valuation allowances should be established against deferred tax assets based on all available evidence, both positive and negative, using a “more likely than not” standard. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, our experience with loss carryforwards not expiring and tax planning alternatives, as we operate and derive income across multiple jurisdictions. We may not recognize deferred tax assets for loss carryforwards in jurisdictions where there is a recent history of cumulative losses, where there is no taxable income in the carryback period, where there is insufficient evidence of future earnings to overcome the loss history and where there is no other positive evidence, such as the likely reversal of taxable temporary differences, that would result in the utilization of loss carryforwards for tax purposes.

Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources

We focus on our ability to generate cash flows from operations. The cash generated from operations is used to fund our capital expenditure plans, and cash in excess of capital expenditure needs is available to fund our acquisition strategy and to reduce debt levels.

At June 27, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had significant cash balances and limited third-party debt. We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, credit facilities and projected cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months.

-51-

In January 2013 we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement. The terms of our credit agreement provide for the following facilities: (1) a secured revolving facility of $15.0 million (which may be increased by a maximum of $10.0 million at our request), the proceeds of which can be used for general corporate purposes, with sublimits of $10.0 million for letters of credit and $5.0 million for swing loans outstanding for up to 5 business days; (2) a secured term facility of $10.0 million for the Company; and (3) a secured term facility of $15.0 million for Vishay Precision Group Canada ULC ("VPG Canada"), our Canadian subsidiary. The credit agreement terminates on January 29, 2018. The term loans are being repaid in quarterly installments.

Per our credit agreement, borrowings under all facilities (excluding swing loans) bear interest at either, upon our option, (1) a base rate which is the greater of the agent's prime rate, the Federal Funds rate, or a LIBOR floor, plus a margin of 0.25% or (2) LIBOR plus, depending upon our leverage ratio, an interest rate margin ranging from 2.00% to 3.00%. We are also required to pay a quarterly fee of 0.30% per annum to 0.50% per annum on the unused portion of the secured revolving facility, which is determined based on our leverage ratio each quarter. Additional customary fees apply with respect to letters of credit.

The obligations of VPG and the guarantors under our credit agreement are secured by substantially all the assets (excluding real estate) of VPG, and by pledges of stock in certain domestic and foreign subsidiaries, as well as by guarantees by substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries and the assets (excluding real estate) of the guarantors. The VPG Canada term facility is secured by substantially all the assets of VPG Canada, and by a secured guarantee of VPG and our domestic subsidiaries. The credit agreement restricts us from paying cash dividends, and requires us to comply with other customary covenants, representations and warranties, including the maintenance of specific financial ratios. The financial maintenance covenants include a tangible net worth ratio, a leverage ratio and a fixed charges coverage ratio. During the second quarter of 2015, we were in compliance with the tangible net worth and leverage ratios, but we were not in compliance with the fixed charges coverage ratio. We obtained a waiver from the lenders respecting such non-compliance dated July 31, 2015. If we are not in compliance with any of these covenant restrictions in future periods, the credit agreement could be terminated by the lenders, and all amounts outstanding pursuant to the credit agreement could become immediately payable. The borrowings under the credit agreement have been classified as current as of June 27, 2015 based on our expectations that we will continue to be non-compliant with the fixed charges coverage ratio covenant in future periods. We are currently pursuing an amendment to this facility, but cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to successfully amend the facility. We believe we have sufficient available cash on hand to repay all amounts currently outstanding under the credit agreement.

Additionally, the January 2013 credit agreement requires VPG to deliver to the lenders, within 45 days after the close of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year, certain management-prepared financial statements and an officer’s compliance certificate stating the Company is in compliance with the tangible net worth, leverage and the fixed charges coverage ratios as stipulated in the credit agreement. We were not able to provide this information within the 45-day period following June 27, 2015 due to our review and analysis of the functional currency accounting at our Indian subsidiary. We obtained a waiver from the lenders on August 18, 2015 permitting us to provide the management-prepared financial statements and officer’s compliance certificate by September 11, 2015.

We have outstanding exchangeable unsecured notes with a principal amount of approximately $4.1 million, which are exchangeable for an aggregate of 181,537 shares of VPG common stock. The maturity date of these notes is December 13, 2102.

Our other long-term debt is not significant and consists of zero percent interest rate debt held by our Japanese subsidiary of approximately $0.7 million at June 27, 2015 and $0.7 million at December 31, 2014, respectively.

Due to our strong product portfolio and market position, our business has historically generated operating cash flow. This is evident in the six fiscal months ended June 28, 2014, with cash provided by operating activities of $4.9 million. However, our cash used in operating activities for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 was $49.0 thousand, which primarily resulted from lower net earnings, the payment of taxes related to 2014 and changes in working capital accounts.

We refer to the amount of cash provided by operating activities in excess of our capital expenditure needs and net of proceeds from the sale of assets as “free cash,” a measure which management uses to evaluate our ability to fund acquisitions and repay debt. Free cash is also used as a metric for certain of our performance-based equity compensation awards. We historically have generated positive free cash. However, the payment of taxes related to 2014 and changes in working capital accounts during the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 caused us to use cash in, rather than generate cash from, operating activities. As a result, we did not generate free cash in the current period presented. It is anticipated that we will begin to generate free cash during the remaining six months of fiscal year 2015.

The following table summarizes the components of net cash (debt) at June 27, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (in thousands):



	June 27, 2015		December 31, 2014
Cash and cash equivalents	$	65,456	$	79,642

Third-party debt, including current and long-term:
Revolving credit facilities	—		—
Term loans	16,250		18,000
Third-party debt held by Japanese subsidiary	654		736
Exchangeable notes due 2102	4,097		4,097
Total third-party debt	21,001		22,833
Net cash	$	44,455	$	56,809

Measurements such as “free cash” and “net cash (debt)” do not have uniform definitions and are not recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Such measures should not be viewed as alternatives to U.S. GAAP measures of performance or liquidity. However, management believes that “free cash” is a meaningful measure of our ability to fund acquisitions and repay debt, as well as to measure performance under certain of our equity compensation awards. In addition, management believes that an analysis of “net cash (debt)” assists investors in understanding aspects of our cash and debt management. These measures, as calculated by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Approximately 84% and 73% of our cash and cash equivalents balance at June 27, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, was held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries. If cash is repatriated to the United States, we would be subject to additional U.S. income taxes (adjusted for foreign tax credits), state income taxes, incremental foreign income taxes, and withholding taxes payable to various foreign countries. See the following table for the percentage of cash and cash equivalents, by region, at June 27, 2015 and December 31, 2014:



	June 27, 2015		December 31, 2014
Israel	24	%	23	%
Asia	24	%	18	%
Europe	14	%	14	%
United States	16	%	27	%
United Kingdom	13	%	10	%
Canada	9	%	8	%
	100	%	100	%

Our financial condition as of June 27, 2015 remains strong, with a current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) of 3.2 to 1.0, as compared to a ratio of 3.8 to 1.0 at December 31, 2014.

Cash paid for property and equipment for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 was $5.0 million as compared to $3.4 million in the comparable prior year period. Capital expenditures for the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015 are comprised of projects related to the normal maintenance of business and expansion related to the production of a certain product line.

On September 23, 2014, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan, authorizing the Company to repurchase, in the aggregate, up to 500,000 shares of its outstanding common stock. On May 21, 2015, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the shares of the Company's outstanding common stock available for repurchase, in the aggregate, from 500,000 shares to 2,000,000 shares. We repurchased 433,083 shares of common stock during the six fiscal months ended June 27, 2015, for a total cost of $6.1 million. We have repurchased a total of 435,083 shares, at a total cost of $6.2 million, since the inception of the stock repurchase plan.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in the market risks previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2015.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As described below, management has identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting which is an integral component of our disclosure controls and procedures. As a result of the material weakness that existed as of December 31, 2014 and continued to exist as of June 27, 2015, and the additional material weakness identified during the quarter ended June 27, 2015, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are: (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As previously disclosed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, management concluded that there was a material weakness in internal controls as of December 31, 2014 related to our review controls over the calculation of the 2014 fourth quarter goodwill impairment charge. Our review controls were not designed to detect a material error in the calculation of the implied value of goodwill due to a mathematical error in the underlying calculation. The resulting error was corrected and reflected in the impairment charge recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. The Company is in the process of developing a revised approach to calculating the implied value of goodwill to be used whenever such a calculation is required to be performed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and is also enhancing its review processes over such calculations, including involving additional individuals with the appropriate technical expertise to perform the review. We believe such actions will remediate the identified material weakness and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting overall. Our remediation efforts were not complete as of June 27, 2015, but the Company expects to complete the required remedial actions during 2015. Once all remedial actions have been implemented, these actions will be tested to determine whether the applicable controls are operating effectively.

As explained in Note 1 to the consolidated condensed financial statements included within this report, management identified an error pertaining to our accounting for foreign currency transactions at one of our Indian subsidiaries having a U.S. dollar functional currency. We have determined that our controls over the ongoing monitoring of differences caused by translating the local currency financial statements of that Indian subsidiary, as opposed to correctly remeasuring those local currency financial statements, were not designed to detect a material error resulting from the incorrect translation of those financial statements. The impacts of those errors have been corrected in the accompanying condensed financial statements. Management has concluded that this represents a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of June 27, 2015. During the quarter ended June 27, 2015, the Company implemented a new enterprise resource & planning (“ERP”) system at this Indian subsidiary which is designed to perform the correct remeasurement of the local currency financial statements of that subsidiary. We believe that this new ERP system, as well as an appropriately designed management review control, will remediate the identified material weakness and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting overall. Our remediation efforts were not complete as of June 27, 2015, but the Company expects to complete the required remedial actions during 2015. Once all remedial actions have been implemented, the system and management review control will be tested to determine whether they are operating effectively.

Management believes the foregoing efforts will effectively remediate the identified material weaknesses. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine that it is necessary to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or may determine that it is necessary to modify the remediation plans described above. If not remediated, the material weakness could result in a material misstatement to our consolidated financial statements.

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, believes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives

-55-

of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must consider the benefits of controls relative to their costs. Inherent limitations within a control system include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the control. While the design of any system of controls is to provide reasonable assurance of the effectiveness of disclosure controls, such design is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and such assumptions, while reasonable, may not take into account all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be prevented or detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as noted in the preceding paragraphs, during our last fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2015, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
