Description of Business General Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. (the "Company") located in Saratoga Springs, New York, is engaged principally in the development, design, production and sale of specialized electronic power supplies, a wide variety of transformers and other types of iron-core components, and electronic system components. In some cases, the Company manufactures such products in accordance with pre-developed mechanical and electrical requirements ("build to print"). In other cases, the Company is responsible for both the overall design and manufacture of the product. The Company does not generally manufacture standardized components. The Company operates a one-segment business and was incorporated in 1928. The electronic power supplies and components manufactured by the Company find application principally in (i) shipboard and land based radar, (ii) locomotives, (iii) aircraft, (iv) short and medium range communication systems, (v) navigation systems and (vi) land based military vehicles. The Company's iron-core components include (i) transformers of the audio, power and pulse types, (ii) magnetic amplifiers and (iii) audio filters. The electronic system components manufactured by the Company include antenna systems and high power radar transmitters. These system components utilize the Company's own electronic power supplies, transformers and other iron-core components and mechanical assemblies. In the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company's total sales were $27,656,359 and $20,851,570, respectively. Sales to two customers accounted for 30% and 29% of total sales in 2007. Sales to three customers accounted for 35%, 17% and 13% of total sales in 2006. Export sales in 2007 and 2006 were approximately $3,747,000 and $3,392,000, respectively. Sources of Raw Materials The Company has never experienced any significant delay or shortage with respect to the purchase of raw materials and components used in the manufacture of its products, and has at least two potential sources of supply for a majority of its raw materials. However, certain components used in our products are available from only a limited number of sources, and other components are only available from a single source. Despite the risk associated with limited or single source suppliers, the benefits of higher quality goods and timely delivery minimize and often limit any potential risk and can eliminate problems with part failures during production. Sales Backlog At September 5, 2007, the Company's backlog was approximately $35.7 million. The total backlog at June 30, 2007 was approximately $36.3 million as compared to approximately $37.7 million at June 30, 2006. The Company's total backlog represents the estimated remaining sales value of work to be performed under firm contracts. The Company's backlog and risks associated with government contracts is discussed in greater detail in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in Item 7 below. It is presently anticipated that a minimum of $25.7 million of orders comprising the June 30, 2007 backlog will be filled during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. The minimum of $25.7 million does not include any shipments, which may be made against orders subsequently received during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. The estimate of the June 30, 2007 backlog to be shipped in fiscal 2008 is subject to future events, which may cause the amount of the backlog actually shipped to differ from such estimate. Marketing and Competition The Company markets its products primarily through its own direct sales organization. Business is solicited from large industrial manufacturers and defense companies, the government of the United States and foreign governments and major foreign electronic equipment companies. In certain countries the Company has external sales representatives to help solicit and coordinate foreign contracts. The Company is also on the eligible list of contractors of many agencies of the United States Department of Defense and generally is automatically solicited by such agencies for procurement needs falling within the major classes of products produced by the Company. 3 There is competition in all classes of products manufactured by the Company, including from divisions of the largest electronic companies, as well as many small companies. The Company's sales do not represent a significant share of the industry's market for any class of its products. The principal methods of competition for electronic products of both a military and industrial nature include, among other factors, price, product performance, the experience of the particular company and history of its dealings in such products. The Company, as well as other companies engaged in supplying equipment for military use, is subject to various risks, including, without limitation, dependence on U.S. and foreign government appropriations and program allocations, the competition for available military business, and government termination of orders for convenience. The Company's business is not considered to be seasonal in nature. Research and Development The Company's expenditures for research and development were approximately $79,836 and $121,000 in 2007 and 2006, respectively. Some of the Company's engineers and technicians spend varying degrees of time on either development of new products or improvement of existing products. Employees The Company had 180 employees as of September 5, 2007. Some of these employees are represented by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local #1799. The current collective bargaining agreement expires on June 30, 2008. Relations with the Union are considered good. Union membership at September 5, 2007 was 76 people. Government Regulations Compliance with federal, state and local provisions that have been enacted or adopted to regulate the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, did not in fiscal year 2007, and the Company believes will not in fiscal year 2008, have a material effect upon the capital expenditures, net income, or competitive position of the Company. The Company's U.S. government contract and subcontract orders are funded by government budgets, which operate on an October-to-September fiscal year. In February of each year, the President of the United States presents to Congress a proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year. This budget includes recommended appropriations for every federal agency and is the result of months of policy and program reviews throughout the executive branch. From February through September of each year, the appropriations and authorization committees of Congress review the President's budget proposals and establish the funding levels for the upcoming fiscal year in appropriations and authorization legislation. Once these levels are enacted into law, the Executive Office of the President administers the funds to the agencies. There are two primary risks associated with this process. First, the process may be delayed or disrupted because of congressional schedules, negotiations over funding levels for programs or unforeseen world events, which could, in turn, alter the funding for a program or contract. Second, funding for multi-year contracts can be changed by future appropriations, which could affect the timing of funds, schedules and program content. Also, our international sales are denominated in United States currency. Consequently, changes in exchange rates that strengthen the United States dollar could increase the price in local currencies of our products in foreign markets and make our products relatively more expensive than competitors' products. U.S. Government Defense Contracts and Subcontracts Generally, U.S. government contracts are subject to procurement laws and regulations. Some of the Company's contracts are governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), which lays out uniform policies and procedures for acquiring goods and services by the U.S. government, and agency-specific acquisition regulations that implement or supplement the FAR. For example, the Department of Defense implements the FAR through the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation (DFAR). The FAR also contains guidelines and regulations for managing a contract after award, including conditions under which contracts may be terminated, in whole or in part, at the government's convenience or for default. If a contract is terminated for the convenience of the government, a contractor is entitled to receive payments for its allowable 4 costs and, in general, the proportionate share of fees or earnings for the work done. If a contract is terminated for default, the government generally pays for only the work it has accepted. These regulations also subject the company to financial audits and other reviews by the government of its costs, performance, accounting and general business practices relating to its contracts, which may result in adjustment of the company's contract-related costs and fees. Item 2. Description of Property The Company's manufacturing and engineering facilities are located in Saratoga Springs, New York. The Saratoga Springs plant, which the Company owns, consists of various adjoining one-story buildings on a 22 acre site. (Approximately 8 acres of this site is unimproved) The property is not subject to mortgage indebtedness or any other material encumbrance. The plant has a sprinkler system throughout and contains approximately 151,000 square feet of floor space, of which 90,000 is used for manufacturing, 24,000 for engineering, 33,000 for shipping and climatically secured storage, and 4,000 for offices. The offices, engineering and some manufacturing areas are air-conditioned. In addition to assembly and wiring operations, the plant includes facilities for varnishing, potting, plating, impregnation and spray-painting operations. The manufacturing operation also includes a complete machine shop, with welding and sheet metal fabrication facilities adequate for substantially all of the Company's current operations. Besides normal test equipment, the Company maintains a sophisticated on-site environmental test facility. In addition to meeting all of the Company's in-house needs, the plating, machine shop and environmental facilities are available to other companies on a contract basis. Item 3. Legal Proceedings None Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders None 5 PART II Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters Price Range of Common Stock The table below shows the range of high and low prices for the Company's common stock on the American Stock Exchange (ticker symbol "ESP"), the principal market for trading in the common stock, for each quarterly period for the last two fiscal years ended June 30: 2007 High Low First Quarter 18.30 16.10 Second Quarter 19.05 16.65 Third Quarter 19.91 16.85 Fourth Quarter 24.30 19.61 2006 High Low First Quarter 17.88 15.05 Second Quarter 20.45 17.31 Third Quarter 18.95 15.00 Fourth Quarter 19.45 15.90 Holders The approximate number of holders of record of the common stock was 117 on September 5, 2007 according to records of the Company's transfer agent. Included in this number are shares held in "nominee" or "street" name and, therefore, the number of beneficial owners of the common stock is believed to be substantially in excess of the foregoing number. Dividends The Company paid cash dividends on common stock of $.56 and $.34 per share for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Board of Directors has authorized the payment of a fiscal 2008 first quarter dividend of $.175 payable September 21, 2007 to shareholders of record on September 4, 2007. During fiscal 2007, the Company sold common stock to certain employees and directors as they exercised existing stock options granted under a shareholder approved plan. During the year, 28,600 shares were sold at prices that ranged from $8.98 a share to $11.25 a share. The securities were sold for cash. Proceeds are used for general working capital purposes. There were no purchases of equity securities in the fiscal 2007 fourth quarter.

6 Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Business Outlook The business outlook for the Company is excellent. The order backlog, together with potential new orders realized from outstanding quotations by the Company, remain at a level that should permit the Company to sustain the level of its fiscal year 2007 revenues in fiscal year 2008. Expectations are for product mix and margins to remain favorable for fiscal 2008. During fiscal 2007 new orders received by the Company were approximately $26.3 million. The order backlog of approximately $36.3 million at June 30, 2007 gives the Company a solid base of future sales. It is presently anticipated that a minimum of $25.7 million of orders comprising the June 30, 2007 backlog will be filled during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. The minimum of $25.7 million does not include any shipments, which may be made against orders subsequently received during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. The backlog represents the estimated remaining sales value of work to be performed under firm contracts. The funded portion of this backlog at June 30, 2007 is approximately $31.6 million. This includes items that have been authorized and appropriated by Congress and/or funded by the customer. The unfunded backlog is approximately $4.7 million and represents firm multi-year orders for which funding has not yet been appropriated by Congress. While there is no guarantee that future budgets and appropriations will provide funding for a given program, management has included in unfunded backlog only those programs that it believes are likely to receive funding. The unfunded backlog at June 30, 2006 was approximately $8.5 million. In addition to the backlog, the Company currently has outstanding quotations representing in excess of $42 million in the aggregate for both repeat and new programs. Many potential orders are currently being discussed and negotiated with existing and potential customers. The outstanding quotations encompass various new and previously manufactured power supplies, transformers, and subassemblies. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will acquire any or all of the anticipated orders described above, many of which are subject to allocations of the United States defense spending and factors affecting the defense industry and military procurement generally. Sales to two significant customers in fiscal 2007 represented 59% of the Company's total sales. While the Company has always had a small number of customers that make up its total sales in any given year, management is pursuing business opportunities involving significant product programs with new and current customers with an objective of lowering the overall concentration of sales, and minimizing the impact of loss of a significant customer or excessive reliance upon a single major product program of a particular customer. Management continues to invest in capital equipment to upgrade its technology and stay current with the industry. Capital expenditures are expected to be $400,000 for fiscal 2008. Also, management along with the Company's Board of Directors, continues to look for potential opportunities to expand the Company's business through acquisitions. Results of Operations Net Sales for fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, were $27,656,359 and $20,851,570, respectively, a 32.6% increase. Generally, this increase can be attributed to the contract specific nature of the Company's business and the long-term nature of these contracts. The Company continues to deliver product on its single largest order for power supplies. The increase in sales is largely attributable to an increase in shipments to two customers for military and industrial power supplies. The sales backlog at June 30, 2007, as discussed above, includes significant orders for military and industrial power supplies, and contracts to manufacture certain customer products in accordance with pre-engineered requirements. The primary factor in determining gross profit and net income is product mix. The gross profits on mature products and build to print contracts are higher than with respect to the products, which are still in the engineering development stage or in the early stages of production. In any given accounting period the mix of product shipments between higher margin mature programs and less mature programs including loss contracts, has a significant impact on gross profit and net income. For fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 gross profits were $6,059,967 and $4,542,089, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 21.9% and 21.8%, for fiscal 2007 and 2006, respectively. A favorable product mix in fiscal 2007, offset by higher ESOP and stock-based compensation expense, caused the gross profit percentage in fiscal 2007 to be consistent with fiscal 2006. ESOP compensation expense included in cost of sales was $377,701 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, and $356,990 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Stock-based compensation expense included in cost of sales was $56,318 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 and zero for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 (see notes 11 and 12 to the financial statements). Management continues to 7 evaluate the Company's workforce to ensure that production and overall execution of the backlog orders and additional anticipated orders are successfully performed. Employment at June 30, 2007 was 179 people, compared to 169 people employed at June 30, 2006. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,831,365 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $194,907, or 7.4% as compared to the prior year. This increase is primarily due to employee training and recruitment fees, stock-based compensation and in increase in selling expenses. Other income for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $677,888 and $460,923, respectively, a 47.1% increase. This increase is due to increased interest income on the Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments due to higher interest rates as well as an increase in scrap metal income. The Company does not believe that there is significant risk associated with its investment policy, since at June 30, 2007 all of the investments were primarily represented by short-term liquid investments including certificates of deposit and money market accounts. The effective income tax rate was 34.9% in fiscal 2007 and 34.2% in fiscal 2006. The effective tax rate was impacted in fiscal 2007 mainly due to the qualified production activities benefit, ESOP dividend payment deduction, offset by ESOP differences between book expense and tax expense for currently allocated shares and state taxes. Net income for fiscal 2007, was $2,544,720 or $1.24 and $1.23 per share, basic and diluted, respectively, compared to net income of $1,558,016 or $.77 and $.76 per share, basic and diluted, respectively, for fiscal 2006. The increase in net income per share was due to increased sales offset partially by the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's working capital is an appropriate indicator of the liquidity of its business, and during the past two fiscal years, the Company, when possible, has funded all of its operations with cash flows resulting from operating activities and when necessary from its existing cash and investments. The Company did not borrow any funds during the last two fiscal years. Management has available a $3,000,000 line of credit to help fund further growth or working capital needs, if necessary, but does not anticipate the need for any borrowed funds in the foreseeable future. The Company's working capital as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $28,301,566 and $26,316,971, respectively. During 2007 and 2006 the Company repurchased 16,269 and 38,746 shares, respectively, of its common stock from the Company's Employee Retirement Plan and Trust ("ESOP") and in other open market transactions, for a total purchase price of $298,064 and $679,809, respectively. Under existing authorizations from the Company's Board of Directors, as of June 30, 2007, management is authorized to purchase an additional $2 million of Company stock. The table below presents the summary of cash flow information for the fiscal year indicated: 2007 2006 ---- ---- Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities... $ 6,075,626 $ (309,778) Net cash used in investing activities................. (948,993) (5,667,338) Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities .. (1,103,137) 3,246,224 Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities fluctuates between periods primarily as a result of differences in net income, the timing of the collection of accounts receivable, purchase of inventory, receipt of progress payments, level of sales and payments of accounts payable. Net cash used in investing activities decreased in fiscal 2007 as expected due to the ESOP transaction executed in fiscal 2006 and described in note 11. The decrease in cash provided by (used in) financing activities is also due primarily to the sale of treasury shares to the ESOP in the first half of fiscal 2006 as described in note 11 and an increase in dividends paid on common stock. The Company believes that the cash generated from operations and when necessary, from existing cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet its long-term funding requirements for the foreseeable future. Management believes that the Company's reserve for bad debts of $3,000 is adequate given the customers with whom the Company does business. Historically, bad debt expense has been minimal. During fiscal year 2007 and fiscal 2008, the Company expended $565,003 and $468,868, respectively, for plant improvements and new equipment. The Company has budgeted approximately $400,000 for new equipment and plant improvements in fiscal 2008. Management anticipates that the funds required will be available from current operations. 8 Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our significant accounting policies are described in note 2 to the financial statements. We believe our most critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and cost estimation on our contracts. Revenue Recognition and Estimates A significant portion of our business is comprised of development and production contracts. Generally revenues on long-term fixed-price contracts are recorded on a percentage of completion basis using units of delivery as the measurement basis for progress toward completion. Percentage of completion accounting requires judgment relative to expected sales, estimating costs and making assumptions related to technical issues and delivery schedules. Contract costs include material, subcontract costs, labor and an allocation of overhead costs. The estimation of cost at completion of a contract is subject to numerous variables involving contract costs and estimates as to the length of time to complete the contract. Given the significance of the estimation processes and judgments described above, it is possible that materially different amounts of contract costs could be recorded if different assumptions were used, based on changes in circumstances, in the estimation of cost at completion. When a change in expected sales value or estimated cost is determined, changes are reflected in current period earnings. Item 7.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. 15 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 1. Nature of operations Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. (the Company) is a manufacturer of electronic equipment used primarily in military and industrial applications. The principal markets for the Company's products are companies that provide electronic support to both military and industrial applications. Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Inventory Valuation, Cost Estimation and Revenue Recognition Raw materials are valued at weighted average cost. Inventoried work relating to contracts in process and work in process is valued at actual production cost, including factory overhead incurred to date. Work in process represents spare units; parts and other inventory items acquired or produced to service units previously sold or to meet anticipated future orders. The cost elements of contracts in process and work in process consist of production costs of goods and services currently in process and overhead. Provision for losses on contracts is made when the existence of such losses becomes probable and estimable. The costs attributed to units delivered under contracts are based on the estimated average cost of all units expected to be produced. Certain contracts are expected to extend beyond twelve months. Revenue is recognized on contracts in the period in which the units are delivered and billed (units-of-delivery method). A significant portion of our business is comprised of development and production contracts. Generally, revenues on long-term fixed-price contracts are recorded on a percentage of completion basis using units of delivery as the measurement basis for progress toward completion. Percentage of completion accounting requires judgment relative to expected sales, estimating costs and making assumptions related to technical issues and delivery schedules. Contract costs include material, subcontract costs, labor and an allocation of overhead costs. The estimation of cost at completion of a contract is subject to numerous variables involving contract costs and estimates as to the length of time to complete the contract. Given the significance of the estimation processes and judgments described above, it is possible that materially different amounts of contract costs could be recorded if different assumptions were used, based on changes in circumstances, in the estimation of cost at completion. When a change in expected sales value or estimated cost is determined, changes are reflected in current period earnings. Depreciation Depreciation of plant and equipment is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are as follows: Buildings and improvements 10 - 35 years Machinery and equipment 3 - 25 years Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 5 - 10 years Income Taxes The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred taxes and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, SFAS No. 109 requires that the tax benefit of tax-deductible dividends on unallocated ESOP shares be recorded as a direct addition to retained earnings rather than as a reduction of income tax expense. 16 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks, certificates of deposit, and money market accounts. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Short-term investments include certificates of deposit with maturities greater than three months to a year. Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business and collateral is generally not required for trade receivables. Exposure to credit risk is controlled through the use of credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates the allowance based on its analysis of specific balances, taking into consideration the age of the past due account and anticipated collections resulting from legal issues. An account is generally considered past due after thirty (30) days from the invoice date. Based on these factors, there was an allowance for doubtful accounts of $3,000 at June 30, 2007. Changes to the allowance for doubtful accounts are charged to expense and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Stock-Based Compensation Prior to July 1, 2006, the Company accounted for its stock-based compensation plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB Opinion No. 25") and related interpretations, as permitted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure. Accordingly, no stock-based compensation expense was recognized in the Statement of Income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, as all options granted under the Company's stock-based employee compensation plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, stock-based compensation expense was included as a pro forma disclosure in the notes to the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123. Results for prior periods have not been restated, as allowed for under the modified prospective transition method. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, to stock-based employee compensation. Year Ended June 30, 2006 ---- Net income as reported $ 1,558,016 Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects (88,411) ------------- Pro forma net income $ 1,469,605 ============= Net income per share: Basic-as reported $ 0.77 ============= Basic-pro forma $ 0.73 ============= Diluted-as reported $ 0.76 ============= Diluted-pro forma $ 0.72 ============= 17 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued Per Share Amounts SFAS 128 "Earnings Per Share" requires the Company to calculate net income (loss) per share based on basic and diluted net income (loss) per share, as defined. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding options issued by the Company are reflected in diluted EPS using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, options will only have a dilutive effect when the average market price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive Income for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 is equal to net income. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Investment Tax Credits Investment tax credits are accounted for as a reduction of income tax expense in the year taxes payable are reduced. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications may have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. ("FIN") 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes--An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In particular, this interpretation requires uncertain tax positions to be recognized only if they are "more-likely-than-not" to be upheld based on their technical merits. Additionally, the measurement of the tax position will be based on the largest amount that is determined to have greater than a 50% likelihood of realization upon ultimate settlement. Any resulting cumulative effect of applying the provisions of FIN 48 upon adoption would be reported as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings and an adjustment to tax liabilities in the period of adoption. FIN 48 will be effective beginning July 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, but does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those years. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the guidance contained in SFAS 157 and does not expect the implementation to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets, including property, plant, and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale are presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet 18 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued Concentrations of Risk The market for our defense electronics products is largely dependent on the availability of new contracts from the United States and foreign governments to prime contractors to which we provide components. Any decline in expenditures by the United States or foreign governments may have an adverse effect on our financial performance. Generally, U.S. government contracts are subject to procurement laws and regulations. Some of the Company's contracts are governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), which lays out uniform policies and procedures for acquiring goods and services by the U.S. government, and agency-specific acquisition regulations that implement or supplement the FAR. For example, the Department of Defense implements the FAR through the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation (DFAR). The FAR also contains guidelines and regulations for managing a contract after award, including conditions under which contracts may be terminated, in whole or in part, at the government's convenience or for default. If a contract is terminated for the convenience of the government, a contractor is entitled to receive payments for its allowable costs and, in general, the proportionate share of fees or earnings for the work done. If a contract is terminated for default, the government generally pays for only the work it has accepted. These regulations also subject the Company to financial audits and other reviews by the government of its costs, performance, accounting and general business practices relating to its contracts, which may result in adjustment of the Company's contract-related costs and fees. Note 3. Contracts in Process Contracts in process at June 30, 2007 and 2006 are as follows:
2007 2006 ---- ---- Gross contract value $36,265,636 $37,722,746 Costs related to contracts in process, net of progress payments of $206,238 in fiscal 2007 and $234,154 in fiscal 2006 $ 7,255,422 $ 8,301,077
Included in costs relating to contracts in process at June 30, 2007 and 2006 are costs of $865,097 and $1,895,688, respectively, relative to contracts that may not be completed within the ensuing year. Under the units-of-delivery method, the related sale and cost of sales will not be reflected in the statement of income until the units under contract are shipped. Note 4. Property, Plant and Equipment A summary of the original cost of property, plant and equipment at June 30, 2007 and 2006 is as follows: 2007 2006 ---- ---- Land $ 45,000 $ 45,000 Building and improvements 4,478,437 4,354,242 Machinery and equipment 6,528,069 6,595,080 Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 143,221 141,650 ------------ ------------ 11,194,727 11,135,972 Accumulated depreciation (8,260,217) (8,253,520) ------------ ------------ $ 2,934,510 $ 2,882,452 ============ ============ Depreciation expense was $504,243 and $532,735, during the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. 19 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 5. Line of credit At June 30, 2007, the Company has an uncommitted and unused Line of Credit with a financial institution. The agreement provides that the Company may borrow up to $3,000,000. The line provides for interest at the borrower's choice of (I) prime minus .75% or (II) LIBOR plus 1.80% for periods of 1, 2, or 3 months. Any borrowing under the line of credit will be collateralized by accounts receivable. Note 6. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs charged to cost of sales during the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were approximately $79,836 and $121,000, respectively. Note 7. Pension Expense Under terms of a negotiated union contract, the Company is obligated to make contributions to a union-sponsored defined benefit pension plan covering eligible employees. Such contributions and expenses are based upon hours worked at a specified rate and amounted to $94,890 in fiscal 2007 and $88,138 in fiscal 2006. The Company sponsors a 401(k) plan with employee and employer matching contributions. The employer match is 10% of the employee contribution and was $32,262 and $32,590, for fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively. Note 8. Provision for Income Taxes A summary of the components of the provision for income taxes for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 is as follows: 2007 2006 ---- ---- Current tax expense - federal $ 1,282,953 $ 823,563 Current tax expense - state 139,265 85,351 Deferred tax (benefit) expense (60,448) (100,376) ----------- ----------- $ 1,361,770 $ 808,538 =========== =========== Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of "temporary differences" between the amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts measured by tax laws and regulations. These "temporary differences" are determined in accordance with SFAS No. 109. The combined U.S. federal and state effective income tax rates of 34.9% and 34.2%, for 2007 and 2006 respectively, differed from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate for the following reasons: 2007 2006 ---- ---- U.S. federal statutory income tax rate 34.0% 34.0% Increase (reduction) in rate resulting from: State franchise tax, net of federal income tax benefit 2.4 2.4 Foreign exportation benefit (0.2) (0.8) ESOP cost versus Fair Market Value 1.0 1.0 Dividend on allocated ESOP shares (1.2) (1.8) Qualified Production Activities (1.0) (1.0) Stock-based compensation 0.4 -- Other (0.5) 0.4 ------ ------ Effective tax rate 34.9% 34.2% ====== ====== For the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 deferred income tax benefit of $(60,448) and $(100,376), respectively, result from the changes in temporary differences for each year. The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 are presented as follows: 20 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 8. Provision for Income Taxes, Continued 2007 2006 ---- ---- Deferred tax assets: Accrued expenses .............................. $ 159,204 $ 142,269 ESOP .......................................... 56,323 30,328 Stock-based compensation ...................... 4,850 -- Other ......................................... 13,612 12,500 --------- --------- Total deferred tax assets ....... 233,989 185,097 --------- --------- Deferred tax liabilities: Property, plant and equipment - principally due to differences in depreciation methods ... 235,224 256,980 Inventory - effect on uniform capitalization .. -- (10,201) --------- --------- Total deferred tax liabilities .. 235,223 246,779 --------- --------- Net deferred tax liability ........................ $ 1,235 $ 61,682 ========= ========= In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projection for future taxable income over the period in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences without consideration of a valuation allowance. Note 9. Significant Customers A significant portion of the Company's business is the production of military and industrial electronic equipment for use by the U.S. and foreign governments and certain industrial customers. Sales to two domestic customers accounted for 30% and 29% of total sales in fiscal 2007. Sales to three domestic customers accounted for 35%, 17%, and 13% of total sales in fiscal 2006. Export sales in fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006 were approximately $3,747,000 and $3,392,000, respectively. Note 10. Stock Rights Plan The Company has a Shareholder Rights Plan that expires on December 31, 2009. Under this plan, common stock purchase rights were distributed as a dividend at the rate of one right for each share of common stock outstanding as of or issued subsequent to April 14, 1989. Each right entitles the holder thereof to buy one-half share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $25 per share subject to adjustment. The rights are exercisable only if a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the Company's common stock or commences a tender or exchange offer which, if consummated, would result in the offeror individually or, together with all affiliates and associates thereof, being the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the Company's common stock. If a 15% or larger shareholder should engage in certain self-dealing transactions or a merger with the Company in which the Company is the surviving corporation and its shares of common stock are not changed or converted into equity securities of any other person, or if any person were to become the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the Company's common stock, then each right not owned by such shareholder or related parties of such shareholder (all of which will be void) will entitle its holder to purchase, at the right's then current exercise price, shares of the Company's common stock having a value of twice the right's exercise price. In addition, if the Company is involved in any other merger or consolidation with, or sells 50% or more of its assets or earning power to another person, each right will entitle its holder to purchase, at the right's then current exercise price, shares of common stock of such other person having a value of twice the right's exercise price. 21 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 10. Stock Rights Plan, Continued The Company generally is entitled to redeem the rights at one cent per right at any time until the 15th day (or 25th day if extended by the Company's Board of Directors) following public announcement that a 15% position has been acquired or the commencement of a tender or exchange offer which, if consummated, would result in the offer or, together with all affiliates and associates thereof, being the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the Company's common stock. Note 11. Employee Stock Ownership Plan The Company sponsors a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP") that covers all nonunion employees who work 1,000 or more hours per year and are employed on June 30. Prior to July 15, 2005, the ESOP owned 230,120 shares, all of which were allocated to employees. On July 15, 2005, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of such date, the Company, by selling 150,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.33-1/3 per share, to the Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Employee Stock Ownership Plan Trust, provided more shares to be allocated to employees for services rendered over the next 15 years. The ESOP paid $28.90 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $4,335,000. The determination of the purchase price was based on a fairness opinion obtained by an independent valuation firm. The ESOP borrowed from the Corporation an amount equal to the purchase price. The loan will be repaid in fifteen (15) equal annual installments of principal and the unpaid balance will bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.25% per annum, the "prime rate" as quoted in The Wall Street Journal on the date of closing. The above ESOP information has not been adjusted for the stock split completed December 30, 2005. The Board of Directors of the Company had approved a purchase price per share equal to a 5% discount on the average trading price of the Company's common stock on the American Stock Exchange on the date before closing, but in no event greater than the fair market value as determined by an independent valuation firm retained by the ESOP. The average trading price of the Company's common stock on the American Stock Exchange on July 14, 2005 was $30.72. In making the sale, the Company relied on the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, because the shares sold were offered only to the ESOP. After giving effect to the transaction, the ESOP owned 380,120 shares of the Company's 1,158,294 outstanding shares of common stock as of July 15, 2005. The Company makes annual contributions to the ESOP equal to the ESOP's debt service less dividends on unallocated shares received by the ESOP. All dividends on unallocated shares received by the ESOP are used to pay debt service. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings. As the debt is repaid, shares are released and allocated to active employees, based on the proportion of debt service paid in the year. The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with Statement of Position 93-6. Accordingly, the shares purchased by the ESOP are reported as Unearned ESOP Shares in the statement of financial position. As shares are released or committed-to-be-released, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the current average market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings-per-share (EPS) computations. ESOP compensation expense was $472,125 for the year ended June 30, 2007. The ESOP shares as of June 30, 2007 were as follows: Allocated Shares 451,296 Committed-to-be-released shares -- Unreleased shares 249,167 ---------- Total shares held by the ESOP 700,463 ========== Fair value of unreleased shares at June 30, 2007 $6,002,433 ========== 22 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 12. Stock-based Compensation Prior to July 1, 2006, the Company accounted for its stock-based compensation plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB Opinion No. 25") and related interpretations, as permitted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure. Accordingly, no stock-based compensation expense was recognized in the Statement of Income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, as all options granted under the Company's stock-based employee compensation plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, stock-based compensation expense was included as a pro forma disclosure in the notes to the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123. Results for prior periods have not been restated, as allowed for under the modified prospective transition method. Total stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Statement of Income for the fiscal years ended 2007 and 2006, was $170,698 and $0, respectively, before income taxes. The related total deferred tax benefit was approximately $13,480 and $0, respectively for the same periods. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company presented all tax benefits for deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statements of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123(R) requires the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options to be classified and reported as both an operating cash outflow and a financing cash inflow on a prospective basis upon adoption. As of June 30, 2007 there was approximately $171,024 of unrecognized compensation cost, before income tax, related to stock option awards that are expected to be recognized as expense over the next 2 years. The total deferred tax benefit related to these awards is approximately $13,282. The 2000 Stock Option Plan is the Company's only stock option plan. The Board of Directors may grant options to acquire shares of common stock to employees of the Company at the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Generally, options granted have a two year vesting period based on two years of continuous service and have a ten year contractual life. Option grants provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control. Shares issued to satisfy option grants are issued from Treasury stock. Options authorized for issuance under the 2000 Stock Option Plan totaled 275,300. As of June 30, 2007, of the options authorized for issuance, 138,800 were granted and are outstanding, 37,400 of which are vested and exercisable. Options available for future grants at June 30, 2007 total 75,400. SFAS No. 123(R) requires the use of a valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option valuation model, which incorporates various assumptions including those for volatility, expected life and interest rates. The table below outlines the weighted average assumptions that the Company used to calculate stock-based employee compensation for the year ended June 30, 2007: Year Ended June 30, 2007 --------------- Dividend yield 2.53% Expected stock price volatility 21.80% Risk-free interest rate 4.42% Expected option life (in years) 5.0 Weighted average fair value per share of options granted during the period $ 4.007 23 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 12. Stock-based Compensation, Continued The Company pays dividends quarterly and anticipates that it will be able to continue to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the expected life of the options. The expected option life (in years) represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on the safe harbor calculation under SFAS No. 123. The following table illustrates the effect on net income per share for the year ended June 30, 2006 as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation: Year Ended June 30, 2006 ------------- Net income, as reported $ 1,558,016 Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related income taxes (88,411) ------------- Pro forma net income $ 1,469,605 ============= Income per share: Basic - as reported $ .77 Basic - pro forma $ .73 Diluted - as reported $ .76 Diluted - pro forma $ .72 The table below outlines the weighted average assumptions as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation for the year ended June 30, 2006: Year Ended June 30, 2006 ------------- Dividend yield 2.36% Expected stock price volatility 21.72% Risk-free interest rate 4.35% Expected option life (in years) 5.4 Weighted average fair value per share of options granted during the period $4.049 The following table summarizes stock option activity during the year ended June 30, 2007: Employee Stock Options Plan --------------------------------------- Weighted Number of Weighted Average Shares Average Remaining Subject Exercise Contractual To Options Price Term --------------------------------------- Balance at July 1, 2006 146,200 $14.02 8 Granted 37,800 18.29 10 Exercised (28,600) 10.05 -- Forfeited or expired (16,600) 15.92 -- --------------------------------------- Balance at June 30, 2007 138,800 15.77 8 ======================================= Exercisable at June 30, 2007 37,400 10.18 6 ======================================= The intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $121,825, during the twelve months ended June 30, 2007. The intrinsic value of stock options outstanding and exercisable as of June 30, 2007 was $520,111. 24 Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 13. Financial Instruments/Concentration of Credit Risk The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximated fair value as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 because of the relatively short maturities of these instruments. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. At times such investments may be in excess of FDIC insurance limits. As disclosed in note 9, a significant portion of the Company's business is the production of military and industrial electronic equipment for use by the U.S. and foreign governments and certain industrial customers. The related accounts receivable balance of the Company's total trade accounts receivable balance, represented at June 30, 2007 by three customers was 51%, and 63% by three customers at June 30, 2006. Although the Company's exposure to credit risk associated with nonpayment of these balances is affected by the conditions or occurrences within the U.S. and foreign governments, the Company believes that its trade accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customer's financial conditions and requires collateral, such as progress payments, in certain circumstances. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. Note 14. Related Parties The Company paid a law firm in which a director of the Company is a partner, a total of $0 and $19,658, for legal services during fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Included in the payment of $19,658 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, was $9,085 held in trust and paid to other service providers. The shares of common stock owned by the ESOP Trust are voted by the Trustees in the manner directed by the ESOP Committee. The Trustees, Howard Pinsley and Peggy A. Murphy, are the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company and Secretary of the Company, respectfully. See note 11 for additional information regarding the ESOP. Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies The Company at certain times enters into standby letters of credit agreements with financial institutions primarily relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts. Contingent liabilities on outstanding standby letters of credit agreements aggregated to zero at June 30, 2007. Note 16.
