Sales to U.S. government end customers include the Department of Defense ("DoD") and intelligence and civilian agencies, as well as sales directly to or through prime contractors.

Excluding sales in our mobile data communications segment, aggregate sales to U.S. government end customers for our telecommunications transmission and RF microwave amplifiers segments were 20.6% and 36.3% of the combined net sales of these two segments for the three months ended October 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

International sales for the three months ended October 31, 2013 and 2012 (which include sales to U.S. domestic companies for inclusion in products that will be sold to international customers) were $47,540,000 and $39,217,000, respectively.

For the three months ended October 31, 2013, sales to a prime contractor represented approximately 12.5% of consolidated net sales (almost all of which related to our North African country end-customer). For the three months ended October 31, 2013 and 2012, no other customer or individual country (including sales to U.S. domestic companies for inclusion in products that will be sold to a foreign country) represented more than 10% of consolidated net sales.
