Environmental Tectonics Corporation

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Nature of Business:

Environmental Tectonics Corporation (“ETC” or the “Company”) is principally engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of software driven products and services used to simulate and measure certain environmental conditions and to monitor the physiological effects of motion on humans in certain environmental conditions. These products and services include aircrew training systems (aeromedical, tactical combat and general), disaster management systems, entertainment products, sterilizers (steam and gas), environmental testing products, and hyperbaric chambers and other products that involve similar manufacturing techniques and engineering technologies. ETC focuses on software enhancements, product extensions, new product development and new marketplace applications. Presently, sales of the Company’s products are made principally to U.S. and foreign government agencies. We operate in two primary business segments, the Training Services Group (“TSG”) and the Control Systems Group (“CSG”).

Training Services Group. This segment includes three primary product groups: aircrew training devices and related services, disaster management training and systems, and entertainment products.

Control Systems Group. This segment includes three primary product lines: sterilizers, environmental control systems, and hyperbaric chambers, along with parts and service support.

The Company’s fiscal year is the 52-or 53-week annual accounting period ending the last Friday in February. Certain amounts from prior consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in fiscal 2011.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ETC, ETC’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (i.e., Entertainment Technology Corporation, ETC International Corporation and ETC-Delaware), ETC’s 99%-owned subsidiary located in London, England (i.e., ETC Europe), and ETC’s 95%-owned subsidiary located in Warsaw, Poland (i.e., ETC-PZL Aerospace Industries, Ltd. (“ETC-PZL”)). “ETC Southampton” refers to the Company’s corporate headquarters and main production plant located in Southampton, Pennsylvania, USA. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by ETC, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America has been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations and the financial results for the periods presented may not be indicative of the full year’s results, although the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2010.

References to fiscal first quarter 2011 are references to the 13-week period ended May 28, 2010. References to fiscal first quarter 2010 are references to the 13-week period ended May 29, 2009.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during fiscal 2011 as compared to what was previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2010.

3. Earnings Per Common Share:

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options and common stock warrants using the “treasury stock” method plus the effect of all convertible financial instruments, including subordinated debt and preferred stock, as if they had been converted at the beginning of each period presented. If the effect of the conversion of any financial instruments would be anti-dilutive, it is excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

On May 28, 2010, there was $22,896,000 of cumulative convertible participating preferred stock. This consisted of the following:

	•		$55,000 of Series D Preferred Stock convertible at $0.94 per share, equating to 58,511 shares of common stock, issued in April 2009;

	•		$100,000 of Series D Preferred Stock convertible at $1.11 per share, equating to 90,090 shares of common stock, issued in July 2009;

	•		$22,741,000 of Series E Preferred Stock convertible at $2.00 per share, equating to 11,370,500 shares of common stock, issued in July 2009.

On February 20, 2009, in connection with the issuance of a $2,000,000 promissory note, the Company issued warrants to purchase 143,885 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.39 per share. Additionally, on July 2, 2009, in consideration of an increase of the personal guarantee by H.F. Lenfest of the Company’s PNC line of credit, the Company issued warrants to purchase 450,450 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.11 per share. (See Note 6, Long-Term Obligations and Credit Arrangements.)

On May 28, 2010 and May 29, 2009, respectively, there were options to purchase the Company’s common stock totaling 269,185 and 157,652 shares at an average price of $4.53 and $5.90 per share. Due to the conversion price of these common stock options, these shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share since the effect of their conversion would be antidulutive.

6. Long-Term Obligations and Credit Arrangements:

Lenfest Financing Transaction

On April 24, 2009, the Company entered into a transaction (the “Lenfest Financing Transaction”), which was approved by shareholders on July 2, 2009, with H.F. Lenfest (“Lenfest”), a major shareholder and member of our Board of Directors, that provided for the following: (i) a $7,500,000 credit facility provided by Lenfest to ETC, which expires on December 31, 2012; (ii) exchange of the $10 million Subordinated Note held by Lenfest, together with all accrued interest and warrants issuable under the Subordinated Note, and all Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock held by Lenfest, together with all accrued dividends thereon, for a new class of preferred stock, Series E Preferred Stock, of the Company; and (iii) the guarantee by Lenfest of all of ETC’s obligations to PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank”) in connection with an increase of the Company’s existing $15,000,000 revolving line of credit with PNC Bank (the “2007 PNC Credit Facility”) to $20,000,000, and in connection with this guarantee, the pledge by Lenfest to PNC Bank of $10,000,000 in marketable securities.

Lenfest Credit Facility

As part of the Lenfest Financing Transaction, the Company established a credit facility in the maximum amount of $7,500,000 with Lenfest (the “Lenfest Credit Facility”) to be used to finance certain government projects that ETC has been awarded or is seeking to be awarded. The terms of the Lenfest Credit Facility are set forth in a Secured Credit Facility and Warrant Purchase Agreement between the Company and Lenfest, dated as of April 24, 2009 (the “Lenfest Credit Agreement”). In connection with the Lenfest Credit Agreement, the Company has executed, and will in the future execute, promissory notes in favor of Lenfest, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $7,500,000 (the “Lenfest Credit Facility Note”) based on the amount borrowed by the Company pursuant to the Lenfest Credit Agreement. Each Lenfest Credit Facility Note issued under the Lenfest Credit Facility will accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable in cash or, at the option of Lenfest, in shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company, as described below. The Lenfest Credit Facility expires on December 31, 2012. As of May 28, 2010, the Company had not utilized any of the $7.5 million available funding under this facility.

Environmental Tectonics Corporation
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, continued

Bank Credit and Facility

Increased PNC Bank Credit Facility and Issuance of New Guarantee

On April 24, 2009, PNC Bank agreed to increase the amount of financing available under the 2007 PNC Credit Facility from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000, subject to the condition that Lenfest continue to personally guarantee all of ETC’s obligations to PNC Bank (the “Lenfest Guaranty”) and that Lenfest pledge $10,000,000 in marketable securities as collateral security for his guarantee (the “Lenfest Pledge”).

Following the receipt of shareholder approval for the Lenfest Financing Transaction, ETC and PNC Bank entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated PNC Credit Agreement”) and the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement for Letters of Credit (the “Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement”). The 2007 promissory note was cancelled and replaced with the Amended and Restated Promissory Note in the principal amount of $20,000,000 (the “Amended and Restated PNC Note”).

In connection with the execution of the amended and restated agreements and note with PNC, ETC paid to Lenfest an origination fee of 100 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), which is equal to one percent (1%) of the market value of the $10,000,000 in marketable securities pledged by Lenfest to PNC Bank to secure ETC’s obligations to PNC Bank. The 100 shares of Series D Preferred Stock have a stated value of $1,000 per share, or $100,000 in the aggregate. These shares of Series D Preferred Stock have a conversion price per share equal to $1.11, which price equaled the average closing price of ETC common stock during the 120 days prior to the issuance of such shares. Additionally, ETC will pay Lenfest annual interest equal to 2% of the amount of the Lenfest Pledge, payable in Series D Preferred Stock.

In consideration of Lenfest entering into the amended and restated guaranty, ETC issued to Lenfest warrants equal in value to ten percent (10%) of the amount of the $5,000,000 increase under the 2007 PNC Bank Credit Facility. The warrants are exercisable for seven years following issuance to purchase 450,450 shares of ETC Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $1.11, which price equaled the average closing price of ETC common stock during the 120 days prior to the issuance of the warrant. The Company recorded a loan origination deferred charge associated with these warrants of $487,000 using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility of 91.9%; risk-free interest rate of 0.49%; and an expected life of seven years.

Amounts borrowed under the Amended and Restated PNC Credit Agreement can be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed from time to time until June 30, 2011. Borrowings made pursuant to the Amended and Restated PNC Credit Agreement bear interest at either the prime rate (as described in the promissory note executed pursuant to the Amended and Restated PNC Credit Agreement) plus 0.50 percentage points or the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (as described in the Promissory Note) plus 2.50 percentage points. Additionally, ETC is obligated to pay a fee of 0.125% per year for unused but available funds under the line of credit.

Amendment to the Credit Agreement

On October 1, 2009, the Amended and Restated PNC Credit Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2011. Additionally, the affirmative covenants were adjusted. The Consolidated Tangible Net Worth covenant was modified to reflect the impact on the Company’s balance sheet of the Lenfest Financing Transaction. Effective with each fiscal quarter ending after October 1, 2009, the Company must maintain a minimum Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of at least $10,000,000. The EBITDA covenant was changed for fiscal periods beginning after December 1, 2009. Beginning with the first fiscal quarter ending after December 1, 2009, and for each fiscal quarter ending thereafter, the Company must maintain a minimum cumulative aggregate EBITDA of $4,000,000 for the fiscal quarter then ending and the three preceding fiscal quarters. The Company is in full compliance of its covenants as of May 28, 2010.

Environmental Tectonics Corporation
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, continued

As of May 28, 2010, the Company’s availability under the Amended and Restated PNC Credit Agreement was approximately $14,165,000. This reflected cash borrowings of $4,300,000 and outstanding letters of credit of approximately $1,535,000.

Due to the Company’s accumulated deficit, all dividends accruing for the Series D and E Preferred Stock issuances have been recorded in the accompanying financial statements as a reduction in additional paid-in capital.

Dedicated Line of Credit Agreement with PNC Bank

On November 16, 2009, the Company and PNC Bank entered into a Letter Agreement, Reimbursement Agreement, Pledge Agreement, and Amendment to Subordination Agreement (collectively, the “Dedicated Line of Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company received a committed line of credit in the amount of $5,422,405 (the “Line of Credit”) which the Company used to satisfy performance bond and repayment guarantee requirements in a newly awarded contract. Use of this dedicated line of credit is restricted to funding contract performance and repayment guarantee requirements under this specific contract.

As security for the Line of Credit, ETC and H.F. Lenfest were each required to provide PNC Bank with the equivalent of $2,711,000 in the form of cash or other financial instruments. To meet this requirement, ETC has deposited cash in this amount in a restricted bank account with PNC Bank. H.F. Lenfest had guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Dedicated Line of Credit Agreement, and had pledged to PNC Bank $2,711,000 in certificated securities. Under the terms of the line, ETC was required by August 19, 2010, to place additional cash funds of $2,711,000 with PNC Bank, at which time the Lenfest guarantee would be terminated and the Lenfest securities would be returned to Lenfest.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company fulfilled its requirement to fund the balance of the security to collateralize the committed line of credit by depositing approximately $2,711,000 in a certificate of deposit with PNC. Subsequently, Mr. Lenfest’s securities were returned and his guarantee to cover the $5.4 million line was terminated.

ETC-PZL Project Financing

In September 2009, ETC-PZL, located in Warsaw, Poland, entered into a project financing agreement with a Warsaw bank to fund a research and development contract with the Polish government. The amount of this facility is $604,000 and it is being repaid in quarterly installments of approximately $70,000 which commenced in September 2009. This facility will expire in September 2011. Use of this line of credit is restricted to funding contract requirements under a specific research and development contract with the Polish government.

Long-term obligations at May 28, 2010 and February 26, 2010 consist of the following:


	May 28,		February 26,
	2010		2010
	(amounts in thousands)

7. Fair Value of Financial Instrument

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity associated with these instruments. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. The Company categorizes each of its fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

	•		Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets of 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 or identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;

	•		Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require the reporting entity’s judgment or estimation.

The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and financial liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis using the discounted cash flow methodology are summarized below:

8. Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes as well as the valuation of net loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances are reviewed each fiscal period to determine whether there is sufficient positive or negative evidence to support a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset.

The Company has reviewed the components of its deferred tax asset and has determined, based upon all available information, that its current and expected future operating income will more likely than not result in the realization of a portion of its deferred tax assets relating primarily to its net operating loss carryforwards. As of May 28, 2010, the Company had approximately $35.2 million of federal net loss carry forwards available to offset future income tax liabilities, beginning to expire in 2025. In addition, the Company has the ability to offset deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities created for such items as depreciation and amortization.

As a result of the Company’s analysis, no provision for income taxes was recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the thirteen week period ended May 28, 2010. For the thirteen week period ended May 29, 2009, the Company did not record any benefit for income taxes due to the prior operating losses and the low probability that any recorded tax receivables would ever be realized.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Mends International, Ltd.

On May 29, 2008, a Request for Arbitration was filed against the Company with the Secretariat of the International Court of Arbitration by Mends International Ltd. (“Mends”). Mends’ Request for Arbitration arose out of a February 3, 1999 contract between the Company and Mends wherein Mends purchased aeromedical equipment for sale to the Nigerian Air Force. The Company contested the arbitration case but did record a reserve in this matter. On July 1, 2010, the International Court of Arbitration issued a Partial Final Award which was within the scope of the Company’s reserve and which did not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Additionally, the International Court of Arbitration may make an additional award to allocate the costs of the arbitration (including attorneys’ fees) between the parties.

Administrative Agreement with U.S. Navy

In 2007, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the Department of the Navy to resolve litigation filed by the Company in May 2003 in connection with a contract for submarine rescue decompression chambers. As of May 14, 2008, the Company made all payments required under this settlement agreement and transferred the chambers to the Department of the Navy. From October 2, 2007 through December 12, 2007, the Company was suspended by the Department of the Navy from soliciting work for the federal government pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulation. However, effective December 12, 2007, the Department of the Navy lifted the Company’s suspension pursuant to the execution by the Company and the Department of the Navy of an Administrative Agreement. In accordance with the Administrative Agreement, the Company has established and implemented a program of compliance reviews, audits, and reports.

Overview

ETC was incorporated in 1969 in Pennsylvania. For over forty years, we have provided our customers with products, service and support. Innovation, continuous technological improvement and enhancement, and product quality are core values and critical to our success. We are a significant supplier and innovator in the following product areas: (1) software driven products and services used to create and monitor the physiological effects of flight; (2) high performance jet tactical flight simulation; (3) steam and gas sterilization; (4) testing and simulation devices for the automotive industry; (5) hyperbaric and hypobaric chambers; and (6) driving and disaster simulation systems.

We operate in two business segments — Training Services Group (“TSG”) and Control Systems Group (“CSG”). Our core technologies in TSG include the design, manufacture and sale of training services which consists of (1) software driven products and services used to create and monitor the physiological effects of flight; (2) high performance jet tactical flight simulation, and; (3) driving and disaster simulation systems, and in CSG include: (1) steam and gas sterilization; (2) testing and simulation devices for the automotive industry, and; (3) hyperbaric and hypobaric chambers. Product categories included in TSG are Aircrew Training Systems (ATS) and flight simulators, disaster management systems and entertainment applications. CSG includes sterilizers, environmental control devices and hyperbaric chambers along with parts and service support. Revenue and other financial information regarding our segments may be found in Note 11 — Business Segment Information of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following factors had an impact on our financial performance, cash flow and financial position for the fiscal quarter ended May 28, 2010:

•

Increased production under U.S. Government contracts

The Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Act passed in 2005 by Congress mandated base closures and consolidations through all the U.S. defense services. As a result of this Act, in the past two years we have been awarded two major contracts for pilot training. Our fiscal 2011 opening backlog of firm orders included approximately $48 million for two significant contracts from the U.S. Navy for a research disorientation trainer and the U.S. Air Force to provide a high performance training and research human centrifuge. As a result of engineering and production activity on these two contracts, sales to the U.S. Government increased by $2.2 million in our Training Services Group during the current fiscal quarter versus the prior fiscal quarter. On June 12, 2010, we were awarded an additional $38.3 million contract by the U. S. Air Force to provide a suite of altitude chambers. Although at the current time we have a significant sales backlog with the U.S. Government for equipment to being procured under the BRAC Act, given the current domestic economic conditions and political environment, it should not be assumed that any additional contracts will be awarded to us.

•

Exchange of long term debt, establishment of additional facility, and increase in bank line

On April 24, 2009, we entered into a transaction with H. F. Lenfest, a member of our Board of Directors and a significant shareholder, that provided for the following: (i) a $7,500,000 credit facility to be provided by Lenfest to ETC; (ii) exchange of the Subordinated Note held by Lenfest, together with all accrued interest and warrants issuable under the Subordinated Note, and all Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock held by Lenfest, together with all accrued dividends thereon, for a new class of preferred stock, Series E Preferred Stock, of the Company; and (iii) an increase of the existing $15,000,000 revolving line of credit with PNC Bank to $20,000,000. Having adequate cash from operations and additional availability under new and existing credit lines allowed us to effectively and efficiently execute on our contracts. Additionally, we expect to be adequately cash funded throughout fiscal 2011.

•

Positive impact of income taxes

During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, no income tax provision was recorded due to our utilization of significant net operating loss carryforwards. We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes as well as the valuation of net loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances are reviewed each fiscal period to determine whether there is sufficient positive or negative evidence to support a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset.

•

Continued expanded use of our NASTAR Center

Our National Aerospace Training and Research (NASTAR) Center, which opened in fiscal 2008, is an integrated pilot training center offering a complete range of aviation training and research support for military aviation, civil aviation and the emerging commercial space market. The NASTAR Center houses state of the art equipment including the ATFS-400, a GYROLAB GL-2000 Advanced Spatial Disorientation Trainer, a Hypobaric Chamber, an Ejection Seat Trainer, and a Night Vision and Night Vision Goggle Training System. These products represent over forty years of pioneering development and training solutions for the most rigorous stresses encountered during high performance aircraft flight including the effects of altitude exposure, High G-force exposure, spatial disorientation and escape from a disabled aircraft.

During the past two fiscal years we have been successful in utilizing the NASTAR Center for research, space training and as a showroom to market our Authentic Tactical Fighting System technology. We feel that demonstrating tactical flight simulation in our NASTAR Center has been highly instrumental in our obtaining significant orders for our Aircrew Training Systems products.

Going forward, we are hopeful for expanded research aimed at examining the effectiveness of using centrifuge based simulation for Upset Recovery Training (“URT”) for commercial airline pilots. Loss of control in flight is a major cause factor in loss of life and hull damage aircraft accidents. Modern day commercial aviation currently has no requirement for training of pilots to deal with these situations, commonly referred to as “upsets.” Realistic training for responding to and recovering from upsets, or URT, requires more than a non-centrifuged based simulator because non-centrifuge-based simulators do not reproduce the physiological stresses and disorientation that a pilot experiences during an actual upset. We believe our GYROLAB simulator series is an answer to providing pilots with the dynamic environment necessary for effective training.

•

Continued capital and consulting spending to enhance and market worldwide our Authentic Tactical Fighting Systems (ATFS) and other technologies.

During the past two fiscal years we have spent over $4.8 million (including $2.3 million in fiscal 2010) in capital, software development and consulting expenses. Most of this spending has been related to our pilot training simulation equipment. This includes engineering costs to improve the technical abilities of our ATFS line of products, validation effort associated with Upset Recovery Training, and consulting arrangements. Going forward, we expect spending to be significant for these efforts.

•

Common stock dilution.

As a result of our aforementioned refinancing transaction with H. F. Lenfest, our average fully diluted shares have increased by approximately 11.8 million shares. Given our positive financial performance, this increase in equivalent common shares has a dilutive impact on our earnings per share.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operation are based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Company’s condensed financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that reflect significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2010.

Results of Operations

Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $12,121,000 as compared to $9,581,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $2,540,000 or 26.5%. As the table indicates, significant increases were realized in the U.S. Government and Domestic markets offset in part in by a decline in International sales.

Domestic Sales

Domestic sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $2,918,000 as compared to $1,959,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $959,000 or 49.0%, reflecting a significant increase in the sterilizer product line (up $1,507,000), of our Control Systems Group, partially offset by declines in most other product areas. Domestic sales represented 24.1% of the Company’s total sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, as compared to 20.4% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

U.S. Government sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $3,986,000 as compared to $1,836,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $2,150,000 or 117.1%, and represented 32.9% of total sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 versus 19.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. This increase is the result of sales of the Company’s Pilot Training Systems products under significant contracts from the U.S. Navy for a research disorientation trainer and the U.S. Air Force to provide a high performance training and research human centrifuge.

International Sales

International sales, which include sales in the Company’s subsidiary in Poland, for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, were $5,217,000 as compared to $5,786,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, a decrease of $569,000 or 9.8%, and represented 43.0% of total sales, as compared to 60.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. International performance reflected lower simulation sales (down $1,048,000) primarily for a contract in the Middle East which was completed in fiscal 2010. For the thirteen week period ended May 28, 2010, there were sales to the Korean government for $4,474,000. For the thirteen week period ended May 29, 2009, there were sales to or relating to governments or commercial accounts in Saudi Arabia ($3,327,000), Malaysia ($667,000) and Turkey ($537,000).

Fluctuations in sales to international countries from year to year primarily reflect percentage of completion (“POC”) revenue recognition on the level and stage of development and production on multi-year long-term contracts.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $5,130,000 as compared to $4,427,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $703,000 or 15.9%. As a percentage of sales, gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was 42.3% compared to 46.2% for the same period a year ago. The gross margin dollar increase followed the sales increase in both governmental and domestic sales partially offset by the reduction in higher margin international sales. The 3.9 percentage point reduction in the gross margin rate as a percentage of sales primarily reflected reductions in the ATS and simulation product areas.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $1,102,000 as compared to $1,254,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, a decrease of $152,000 or 12.1%. This decrease primarily reflected reduced bid and proposal expenses and reduced commissions on the mix shift in sales in the current quarter to U.S. Government sales.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $1,463,000 as compared to $1,602,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, a decrease of $139,000, 8.7%. The reduction was comprised of lower spending for legal fees and bad debt expense.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses, which are charged to operations as incurred, were $324,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to $228,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The prior quarter reflected higher grant funds from the Turkish Government. Most of the Company’s research efforts, which were and continue to be a significant cost of its business, are included in cost of sales for applied research for specific contracts, as well as research for feasibility and technology updates.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $228,000 as compared to $516,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, representing a decrease of $288,000 or 55.8%, reflecting reduced bank borrowing and the July 2009 exchange of a $10 million convertible note for preferred stock.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net, was $72,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 versus $55,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. These expenses consist primarily of bank and letter of credit fees as well as foreign currency exchange gains or losses.

Income Taxes

Due to the utilization of net operating loss carry forwards available the Company did not record an income tax expense on the income in the current fiscal quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s liquidity position and borrowing availability improved significantly during the first quarter of 2011. Cash flow from operations was a positive $8,244,000. Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) was $10,940,000 and the Company’s current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) was 1.72. The Company repaid over $5 million under its line of credit agreement and repurchased $1,000,000 of Series E Preferred Stock from Lenfest. This positive performance primarily reflected the net income in the period and milestone payment collections under long term contracts.

On April 24, 2009, we entered into a transaction with H. F. Lenfest, a member of our Board of Directors and a significant shareholder, that provides for the following: (i) a $7,500,000 credit facility to be provided by Lenfest to ETC; (ii) exchange of the Subordinated Note held by Lenfest, together with all accrued interest and warrants issuable under the Subordinated Note, and all Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock held by Lenfest, together with all accrued dividends thereon, for a new class of preferred stock, Series E Preferred Stock, of the Company; and (iii) an increase of the existing $15,000,000 revolving line of credit with PNC Bank to $20,000,000. Having adequate cash from operations and additional availability under new and existing credit lines allowed us to effectively and efficiently execute on our contracts. Additionally, we expect to be adequately cash funded throughout fiscal 2011. As of May 28, 2010, the Company had not utilized any of the $7.5 million available funding under the Lenfest credit facility.

The schedule below presents the Company’s available borrowings under its existing credit facilities (amounts in thousands):

Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities:

Cash provided by operations is driven by income from sales of our products offset by the timing of receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we generated $8,244,000 of cash from operating activities versus a usage of $1,156,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an improvement of $9,400,000. Cash generated in the current period primarily reflected significantly improved operating results, customer progress payments under long-term POC contracts, and non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization. These items were offset in part by a reduction in billings in excess of costs under long-term POC contracts as well as an increase in prepaid commissions resulting from payments received under POC contracts that have not been recognized as revenue.

Net cash used for investing activities:

Cash used for investing activities primarily relates to funds used for capital expenditures in property and equipment. These uses of cash are offset by sales and borrowings under our credit facilities. The Company’s investing activities used $579,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and consisted primarily of costs for the continued construction activities and the manufacturing of demonstration simulators for our NASTAR Center coupled with higher software enhancements for our Advanced Tactical Fighter Systems technology.

Net cash used for financing activities:

The Company’s financing activities used $9,675,000 of cash during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. This primarily reflected the repayments under the Company’s bank line, and the repurchase of $1,000,000 of Series E Preferred Stock from and payments of Series D and E Preferred Stock dividends to H.F. Lenfest.

Outlook

We expect to use our cash, cash equivalents and credit facilities for working capital and general corporate purposes, products, product rights, technologies, property, plant and equipment, the payment of contractual obligations, including scheduled interest payments on our credit facilities and dividends on our preferred stock, the potential acquisition of businesses, and/or the purchase, redemption or retirement of our credit facilities and preferred stock. We expect that net sales of our currently marketed products should allow us to continue to generate positive operating cash flow in fiscal 2011. At this time, however, we cannot accurately predict the effect of certain developments on our anticipated rate of sales growth in 2012 and beyond, because of factors such as the degree of market acceptance, the impact of competition, the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts, and the outcome of our efforts to develop our products.

Our sales backlog at May 28, 2010 and February 26, 2010, for work to be performed and revenue to be recognized under written agreements after such dates, was $91,928,000 and $96,964,000, respectively. Of the May 28, 2010 sales backlog, approximately $33,014,000 represents one international contract for multiple aircrew training simulators. Approximately 97% of the U.S. Government backlog represents two contracts.

Subsequent to fiscal quarter end, on June 12, 2010, we were awarded an additional $38.3 million contract by the U. S. Air Force to provide a suite of altitude chambers. This contract is not included in the above totals. The Company’s order flow does not follow any seasonal pattern as the Company receives orders in each fiscal quarter of its fiscal year.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Control and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were functioning effectively and provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Mends International, Ltd.

Administrative Agreement with U.S. Navy

In 2007, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the Department of the Navy to resolve litigation filed by the Company in May 2003 in connection with a contract for submarine rescue decompression chambers. As of May 14, 2008, the Company had made all payments required under this settlement agreement and had transferred the chambers to the Department of the Navy. From October 2, 2007 through December 12, 2007, the Company was suspended by the Department of the Navy from soliciting work for the federal government pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulation.

In accordance with the Administrative Agreement, the Company has established and implemented a program of compliance reviews, audits, and reports.

Other Matters

Certain other claims, suits, and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business have been filed or are pending against us. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel handling these specific matters, all such matters are reserved for or adequately covered by insurance or, if not so covered, are without merit or are of such kind, or involve such amounts, as would not have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations if disposed of unfavorably.
