Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 2013.

The above amounts are net of reserve for obsolete inventory in the amount of $919,676, $851,000 and $845,415 for the periods ended June 30, 2013, September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012 respectively.

3. Notes Receivable

The Company has notes receivable with a current and former employee at an interest rate of three percent per annum. The Company does not anticipate repayment within the next twelve months.

4. Convertible Notes Payable

On December 30, 2011, Hickok Incorporated entered into a Convertible Loan Agreement with Roundball, LLC and the Aplin Family Trust. Under the Convertible Loan Agreement, the Company issued a convertible note to Roundball in the amount of $466,879 and a convertible note to the Aplin Family Trust in the amount of $208,591. In addition, Roundball, LLC shall have the right to cause the Company to borrow up to an additional $466,880 from Roundball, LLC. The notes were unsecured, bore interest at a rate of 0.20% per annum and were set to mature on December 30, 2012.

In addition, the Company sold 20,000 Class B Common Shares currently held in treasury to Roundball at a price of $1.85 per share per a subscription agreement between the Company and Roundball dated December 30, 2011.

The notes were convertible by the Investors at any time into Class A Common Shares of the Company, at a conversion price of $1.85 per share, although up to no more than 504,735 Conversion Shares for Roundball and no more than 112,752 Conversion Shares for the Aplin Family Trust. The Company had the option to convert the notes at the expiration date, if the investors had not during the course of the agreement. On December 30, 2011, Roundball converted $233,438 into Class A Common Shares of the Company. In addition, on August 20, 2012 Roundball converted the remaining $233,441 under the Convertible Loan Agreement into Class A Common Shares of the Company.

On December 28, 2012, the Aplin Family Trust converted the $208,591 under the Convertible Loan Agreement into Class A Common Shares of the Company.

On December 30, 2012 management entered into an amended Convertible Loan Agreement with Roundball which may provide approximately $467,000 of liquidity to meet on going working capital requirements. The amended Convertible Loan Agreement is by and between the Company and a major shareholder who is also a Director modifying the terms and extending the due date of the loan agreement from December 30, 2012 to December 31, 2013 and modifying the terms to allow $250,000 of borrowing on the agreement at the Company's discretion at an interest rate of 0.24%.

In partial consideration for Amendment No. 1, the Company and Roundball entered into a Warrant Agreement, dated  December 30, 2012, whereby the Company issued a warrant to Roundball to purchase, at its option, up to 100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments. If not exercised, this warrant will expire on December 30, 2015. Roundball is an affiliate of Steven Rosen, a Director of the Company.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value estimate for recognizing the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions which can materially affect the fair value estimates. The warrants are immediately exercisable and expire in December 2015. The fair value of the warrants issued is amortized over the one year amended convertible loan agreement period. During the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013, $11,375 and $34,125 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013: a risk free interest rate of 0.42%; an expected life of 3 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.0%; and a volatility factor of .84.

5. Short-term Financing

The Company had a credit agreement of $250,000 with Robert L. Bauman, one of its major shareholders who is also an employee of the Company. The agreement was to expire in April 2013 but was modified on December 31, 2012 to extend the maturity date to December 2013. Effective October 30, 2012 for the remainder of the agreement, the lender may terminate the agreement with 45 days written notice, but it is at the discretion of the Company to deny the termination notice until December 2013 if it will have a negative effect on the solvency of the Company.

The agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $250,000 with interest at 0.24% per annum and is unsecured and includes a three year warrant for 100,000 shares of Class A common stock at a price of $2.50 per share. In addition, the agreement generally allows for borrowing based on an amount equal to eighty percent of eligible accounts receivables or $250,000. During the three month period ended March 31, 2013 the Company borrowed $250,000 against this loan facility and the Company repaid the outstanding balance of $250,000 on the Revolving Credit Agreement with Robert L. Bauman on February 21, 2013. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under this loan facility at June 30, 2013.

In partial consideration for the extension of the revolving credit facility the Company and Bauman entered into a Warrant Agreement, dated December 30, 2012 whereby the Company issued a warrant to Bauman to purchase, at his option, up to 100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments. If not exercised, this warrant will expire on December 30, 2015.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value estimate for recognizing the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions which can materially affect the fair value estimates. The warrants are immediately exercisable and expire in December 2015. The fair value of the warrants issued is amortized over the one year credit agreement period. During the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013, $11,375 and $34,125 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the three and nine month month periods ended June 30, 2013: a risk free interest rate of 0.42%; an expected life of 3 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.0%; and a volatility factor of .84. 6. Capital Stock, Treasury Stock, Contributed Capital and Stock Options

On February 27, 2013, the Company's 2013 Omnibus Equity Plan was approved and adopted by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company's Class A and Class B Shareholders.

The 2013 Omnibus Plan will provide the Company with the flexibility to grant a variety of share-based awards for covered employees, consultants and Directors. The 2013 Omnibus Plan provides for the grant of the following types of incentive awards: stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, performance shares and Class A Common Shares. Those who will be eligible for awards under the 2013 Omnibus Plan include employees who provide services to the Company and its affiliates, executive officers, non-employee Directors and consultants designated by the Compensation Committee. The Plan has 150,000 Class A Common Shares reserved for issuance. The Class A Common Shares may be either authorized, but unissued, common shares or treasury shares. No share-based awards have been granted under the 2013 Omnibus Equity Plan as of June 30, 2013.

Under the Company's expired Key Employees Stock Option Plans (collectively the "Employee Plans"), incentive stock options, in general, were exercisable for up to ten years, at an exercise price of not less than the market price on the date the option is granted. Non-qualified stock options may be granted at such exercise price and such other terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may determine. No options may be granted at a price less than $2.925. Under the expired Employee Plans there are no options currently available for grant and there are no options outstanding at June 30, 2013. Options for 26,850 shares at $3.55 per share expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

The Company's expired Outside Directors Stock Option Plans (collectively the "Directors Plans"), have provided for the automatic grant of options to purchase up to 31,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees of the Company, at the fair market value on the date of grant. Options for 31,000 Class A shares were outstanding at June 30, 2013 (33,000 shares at September 30, 2012 and 42,000 shares at June 30, 2012) at prices ranging from $2.925 to $11.00 per share. Options for 2,000 shares expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2013 at $3.67 per share. Options for 7,000 shares were granted under the expired Directors Plans during the three month period ended March 31, 2012, at a price of $2.925 per share. In addition, options for 3,000 shares expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2012 at $3.55 per share. All outstanding options under the expired Directors Plans become fully exercisable on March 8, 2015.

The following is a summary of the range of exercise prices for stock options outstanding and exercisable under the expired Directors Plans at June 30, 2013:

Directors Plans	Outstanding  Stock  Options	Weighted  Average  Share Price	Weighted  Average  Remaining  Life	Number of  Stock Options  Exercisable	Weighted  Average  Share  Price
Range of exercise prices:
$2.925 - 5.25	17,000	$3.34	6.9	11,000	$3.56
$6.00 - 7.25	8,000	$6.43	4.4	8,000	$6.43
$10.50 -11.00	6,000	$10.75	4.3	6,000	$10.75
	31,000	$5.57		25,000	$6.20

The Company accounts for Share-Based Payments under the modified prospective method for its stock options for both employees and non-employee Directors. Compensation cost for fixed based awards are measured at the grant date, and the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value estimates for recognizing the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions which can materially affect the fair value estimates. Employee stock options are immediately exercisable while Director's stock options are exercisable over a three year period. The fair value of stock option grants to Directors is amortized over the three year vesting period. During the three and the nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 respectively $1,208 and $5,257; $2,841 and $8,547 was expensed as share-based compensation. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 respectively: a risk free interest rate of 5.0% and 5.5%; an expected life of 10 and 10 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.0% and 0.0%; and a volatility factor of .87 and .75.

On October 11, 2012, the Company's Amended Articles of Incorporation and the Amended Code of Regulations were adopted by an affirmative vote of more than two-thirds of the Company's Class A and Class B Shareholders.

The Amended Articles amend and restate the Current Articles in a number of significant ways and are primarily as follows: increased the number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares from 3,750,000 and 1,000,000 to 10,000,000 and 2,500,000 respectively, and added a class of 1,000,000 Serial Preferred Shares; eliminated par value for for Class A Shares and Class B Shares; updated certain provisions relating to the payment of dividends; removed restrictions on the issuance of additional Class A Shares; clarified the method by which the Company may repurchase its shares; reduced the percentage of shareholder vote required to authorize corporate actions from two-thirds of the voting power to a majority of the voting power; and made other technical or conforming changes.

The Amended Regulations amend and restate the Current Regulations in a number of significant ways and are primarily as follows: updated certain provisions relating to the Company's meetings of shareholders in order to provide more consistency in the regulations regarding the Company's practices in this area; further clarifying the roles of the Company's officers and directors in conducting the Company's business; updated the Company's policy regarding the indemnification of its directors, officers, employees, and others; revised provisions allowing for the Board of Directors to adopt amendments to the Amended Regulations to the extent permitted by Ohio law; and made other technical or conforming changes.

Unissued shares of Class A common stock (958,233 shares) are reserved for the share-for-share conversion rights of the Class B common stock, stock options under the Directors Plans, conversion rights of the Convertible Promissory Note and available warrants.

7. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

8. Earnings per Common Share Earnings per common share information is computed on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period based on the provisions of FASB Codification ASC Topic 260, "Earnings per Share." The required reconciliations are as follows:

Options and warrants to purchase 31,000 and 200,000 shares of common stock respectively during the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 2013 at prices ranging from $2.50 to $11.00 per share were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option's and warrant's effect was antidilutive or the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common share.

10. Commitments and ContingenciesLegal Matters

The Company is the plaintiff in a suit pursuing patent infringement against a competitor in the emissions market. Management believes that it is not currently possible to estimate the impact, if any, that the ultimate resolution of this matter will have on the company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company is a named defendant along with numerous other companies in a suit in the State of Michigan regarding asbestos harm to the plaintiff. The Company has engaged a Michigan attorney to provide representation. The Company believes the suit is without merit and is pursuing dismissal of the case.

11. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through August 2, 2013 which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued, and has determined there were no subsequent events to recognize or disclose in these financial statements.

12. Business Condition and Management Plan

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations during the past several years due primarily to decreasing sales of existing product lines and a general economic downturn in all markets the Company serves.
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on improving the Company's profitability and cash flow and securing additional financing if needed. Management continues to review and revise its strategic plan and believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues and profitability through increased sales of existing products and the introduction of new products to the market place. Management believes that the actions presently being taken by the Company will provide the stimulus for it to continue as a going concern, however, because of the inherent uncertainties there can be no assurances to that effect. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Additionally, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards, currently valued at $0, that offset taxable income.

Management took steps to reduce expenses throughout the Company in fiscal 2009, 2010 and 2011 in the form of substantial reductions in personnel, wage reductions for all personnel and expenditure restrictions in most aspects of the Company’s operations. Anticipated cost savings were achieved during the past four years and management expects these measures to continue through fiscal 2013. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012 management entered into two unsecured convertible loan agreements that have provided approximately $675,000 of cash to date. One of the convertible loan agreements was fully converted during fiscal 2012 and the other on December 28, 2012.

In addition, on December 30, 2012 management entered into an amended unsecured convertible loan agreement and an additional revolving line of credit which may provide approximately $717,000 of liquidity to meet on going working capital requirements. One agreement is an unsecured revolving line of credit with a major shareholder who is also an employee and the other is an unsecured convertible loan agreement with a major shareholder who is also a Director as discussed in Notes 4 and 5. These facilities are available through December 2013.

The above available financing resources together with management’s revised strategic plan to increase revenues and profitability through increased sales of existing products, the introduction of new products to the market place and the revenues generated from the large order from a Tier 1 Supplier should provide the Company with the needed working capital for the foreseeable future.

Results of Operations, Third Quarter (April 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013)
Fiscal 2013 Compared to Third Quarter Fiscal 2012
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reportable Segment Information

The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments: 1) indicators and gauges and 2) automotive related diagnostic tools and equipment. The indicators and gauges segment consists of products manufactured and sold primarily to companies in the aircraft and locomotive industry. Within the aircraft market, the primary customers are those companies that manufacture or service business, military and pleasure aircraft. Within the locomotive market, indicators and gauges are sold to original equipment manufacturers, servicers of locomotives and operators of railroad equipment. Revenue in this segment was $432,912 and $537,903 for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively, and $1,260,745 and $1,268,278 for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively.

The automotive diagnostic tools and equipment segment consists primarily of products designed and manufactured to support the testing or servicing of automotive systems using electronic means to measure vehicle parameters. These products are sold to OEM's and to the aftermarket using several brand names and a variety of distribution methods. Included in this segment are products used for state required testing of vehicle emissions. Revenue in this segment was $907,019 and $733,900 for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively, and $3,782,427 and $2,363,564 for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively. The increased sales volume was primarily due to the large order from a Tier 1 OEM supplier.

Results of Operations

Product sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $1,270,405 versus $1,187,294 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Sales of automotive diagnostic products increased during the current quarter by approximately $189,000 and was volume related and was offset by decreased sales of indicator products of approximately $106,000. Within automotive diagnostic products sales of emission products increased by approximately $198,000, offset in part by a decrease in aftermarket sales of approximately $40,000. Sales of automotive diagnostic products to OEM's increased by approximately $31,000. Management continues to be concerned about the current economic conditions in the markets the Company serves. Product sales are expected to increase slightly during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. 

Service sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $69,526 versus $84,509 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was volume related and due primarily to a lower sales volume for chargeable repairs. The current level of service sales related to product repair sales is expected to continue in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year.

Cost of product sold in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $731,058 (57.5% of product sales) as compared to $739,091 (62.3% of product sales) in the third quarter of 2012. The dollar and percentage decrease in the cost of product sold was due primarily to a change in product mix. The current cost of product sold percentage is expected to decrease slightly during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to an anticipated change in product mix.

Cost of service sold for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $36,681 (52.8% of service sales) as compared to $53,523 (63.3% of service sales) in the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The dollar decrease was due primarily to the lower sales volume in the current quarter. The current cost of services sold percentage is anticipated to continue in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year.

Product development expenses were $234,813 in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 (18.5% of product sales) as compared to $233,490 (19.7% of product sales) in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The percentage decrease was due primarily to higher product sales during the current quarter. The current level of product development expenses is expected to continue in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year.Management believes the existing resources will be sufficient to continue to develop identified new products for both OEM and Aftermarket customers.

Marketing and administrative expenses were $453,621 (33.9% of total sales) in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 versus $419,022 (32.9% of total sales) for the same period a year ago.Marketing expenses were approximately $196,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 versus $183,000 for the same period a year ago. Within marketing expenses,advertising expense, commissions, royalties and travel expensesincreased by approximately $12,000, $3,000, $2,000 and $2,000 respectively. These increases were offset in part by a decrease in promotion expense and outside consulting of approximately $7,000 and $2,000 respectively.Administrative expenses were approximately$258,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 versus $236,000 for the same period a year ago. Within administrative expenses, professional fees increased approximately $45,000 offset in part by a decrease in repairs and maintenance computer equipment, rent machinery and equipment, travel expense and telephone expense of approximately $11,000, $7,000, $1,800 and $1,700 respectively.The current level of marketing and administrative expenses is expected to continue during the fourth quarter.

Interest expense was $22,750 in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 which compares with $223 in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. Interest expense for the current quarter was due to recording as non-cash interest expense a portion of the present value of the warrants issued in December 2012. Interest expense for the prior year third quarter was due to interest on the convertible promissory notes payable. The current level of interest expense is expected to continue for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year.

Other income was $5,215 in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 which compares with $2,571 in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. Other income consists primarily of the proceeds from the sale of scrap metal shavings, purchase discounts and interest income on cash and cash equivalents invested. The increase is due primarily to a higher level of scrap metal sales during the current quarter of approximately $2,600.

Income taxes in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012 was $-0-. In the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012 a recovery of income taxes was calculated at an effective tax rate of 37% offset by an increase in the valuation allowance netting to $0.

The net loss in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $133,777 which compares with a net loss of $170,975 in fiscal 2012. The net loss decrease for the current quarter was the result of a higher sales volume offset by increased marketing and administrative expenses.

Unshipped customer orders as of June 30, 2013 were $652,000 versus $574,000 at June 30, 2012.The increase was due primarily to increased orders in indicators and gauges of approximately $55,000. In addition, automotive diagnostic products increased by approximately $23,000, specifically, $82,000 for emissions products offset in part by a decrease of $59,000 for OEM products. The Company estimates that approximately 83% of the current backlog will be shipped in the last quarter of fiscal 2013.

Results of Operations, Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013
Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012

Product sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 were $4,809,092 versus $3,367,985 for the same period in fiscal 2012. The increase in product sales during the first nine months of the current fiscal year of approximately $1,441,000 was volume related due to increased sales of automotive diagnostic testing products, primarily, automotive diagnostic testing products to OEM's of approximately $1,402,000. Sales of emission products increased by approximately $229,000, offset in part by a decrease in aftermarket sales of approximately $184,000. In addition, sales of indicator products decreased by approximately $6,000. The increase in product sales to OEM's is due to the large order completed during the current year for a Tier 1 OEM supplier. Management anticipates product sales for the fourth quarter to increase slightly.

Service sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 were $234,080 compared with $263,857 for the same period in fiscal 2012. The decrease was volume related and due primarily to a lower sales volume for chargeable repairs. The current level of service sales related to product repair sales is expected to continue in the last three months of the fiscal year.

Cost of product sold was $2,687,961 (55.9% of product sales) compared with $2,179,037 (64.7% of product sales) for the nine months ended June 30, 2012. The percentage decrease in the cost of product sold was due primarily to a higher sales volume, higher plant utilization and a change in product mix. The change in product mix was largely increased sales of automotive diagnostic testing products to OEM's. The dollar increase is due to the volume increase of product sales during the current nine month period. The current cost of product sold percentage is expected to decrease slightly during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to an anticipated change in product mix.

Cost of service sold was $114,341 (48.8% of service sales) compared with $178,223 (67.5% of service sales) for the nine months ended June 30, 2012. The dollar and percentage decrease was due primarily to the lower sales volume and product specifics of chargeable repairs. The cost of services sold percentage is expected to continue in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year.

Product development expenses were $712,058 (14.8% of product sales) compared to $706,720 (21.0% of product sales) for the nine months ended June 30, 2012. The percentage decrease was due primarily to higher product sales during the current nine months of fiscal 2013. The current level of product development expenditures is expected to continue for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. Management believes the existing and planned resources will be sufficient to continue to develop identified new products for both OEM and Aftermarket customers.

Marketing and administrative expenses were $1,339,619 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 (26.5% of total sales) versus $1,154,298 (31.8% of total sales) for the nine months ended June 30, 2012. The percentage decrease during the first nine months of the current fiscal year was due primarily to the higher level of sales. Marketing expenses were approximately $558,000 during the first nine months of the current fiscal year versus $465,000 for the same period a year ago. Within marketing expenses, increases were primarily in royalty expense, labor costs, advertising expense, commissions and travel expense of approximately $50,000, $28,000, $15,000, $10,000 and $1,000 respectively. These increases were offset in part by decreases in promotion expense, credit and collection expense and outside consulting of approximately $7,000, $3,000 and $1,000 respectively. Administrative expenses were approximately $782,000 during the first nine months of the current fiscal year versus $689,000 for the same period a year ago. The dollar increase during the first nine months of the current fiscal year was due primarily to increases in professional fees and labor costs of approximately $124,000 and $2,000 respectively. These increases were offset in part by decreases in repairs and maintenance computer equipment, rent machinery and equipment, travel expense and depreciation expense of approximately $20,000, $7,000, $2,000 and $1,000 respectively. The current level of marketing and administrative expenses are expected to continue for the remainder of the fiscal year.

Interest expense was $68,428 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, and $5,784 for the same period in 2012. The increase in interest charges in the current nine month period compared to a year ago was due primarily to recording as non-cash interest expense a portion of the present value of the warrants issued in December 2012. Interest on the line of credit and convertible notes payable declined by approximately $5,264 and $343 respectively. The current level of interest expense is expected to continue for the fourth quarter of the year due to the remaining present value to be recorded as interest expense on the warrants issued in December 2012.

Other income of $8,693 compares with other income of $13,324 in the same period last year. Other income consists primarily of the proceeds from the sale of scrap metal shavings, purchase discounts and interest income on cash and cash equivalents invested. The decrease was due primarily to the gain on the sale of a company vehicle and an increase in the sale of scrap metal shavings of approximately $3,500 and $1,500 respectively during the prior year nine month period. The current level of other income is expected to continue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

Income taxes during the first nine months of fiscal 2013 was $0 which compares with income taxes of $0 in the first nine months of fiscal 2012. In the first nine months of fiscal 2013 income taxes were recorded at an effective tax rate of 37% offset by deferred taxes, specifically net operating loss carryforwards. In the first nine months of fiscal 2012 recovery of income taxes was calculated at an effective tax rate of 37% offset by a increase in the valuation allowance netting to $0.

The net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 was $129,458 which compares with a net loss of $578,896 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012. The net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 was primarily the result of a higher sales volume in the current fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Total current assets were $3,126,016, $2,823,971 and $2,853,421 at June 30, 2013, September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. The increase of approximately $272,000 from June to June is due primarily to the increase in cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and prepaid expenses of approximately $194,000, $239,000 and $10,000 respectively, offset in part by a decrease in inventory of approximately $171,000. The increase in cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable combined with the decrease in inventory was due primarily to the increase in the sales volume during the period. The decrease in inventory was due partially to a higher obsolescence reserve level, and in addition management's actions to reduce inventory levels during the period. The increase in current assets from September to June of approximately $302,000 was due primarily to the increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $527,000, offset in part by a decrease in inventory and prepaid expenses of approximately $151,000 and $74,000 respectively. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was due primarily to the higher level of sales and the subsequent collection of accounts receivable during the period. The decrease in inventory was due partially to a higher obsolescence reserve level and management's actions to reduce inventory levels during the period.

Working capital as of June 30, 2013 amounted to $2,396,782 as compared with $1,923,219 a year earlier. Current assets were 4.3 times current liabilities compared to 3.1 a year ago. The quick ratio was 2.0compared to 1.1 a year ago.

Internally generated funds during the nine months ended June 30, 2013 were $561,552. Capital expenditures during the period were $15,326. The primary reason for the positive cash flow from operations was the net income generated from the large order from a Tier 1 Supplier to an OEM and the decrease in inventory during the period. The Company does not anticipate any material capital expenditures during fiscal 2013. In addition, the Company believes that cash and cash equivalents, together with funds anticipated to be generated by operations in addition to available short-term financing will provide adequate funding of the Company's working capital needs through the end of fiscal 2013.

Shareholders' equity during the nine months ended June 30, 2013 increased by $396,631 which was the net income during the period of $129,458, sale of Class A Conversion shares of $208,591, issuance of Class A Common shares for consulting services of $7,000, share-based compensation expense of $5,257, non-cash interest expense on warrants issued of $68,250 and filing fees for the additional authorized common shares of $21,925.

On October 11, 2012, the Company's Amended Articles of Incorporation and the Amended Code of Regulations were adopted by an affirmative vote of more than two-thirds of the Company's Class A and Class B Shareholders.

The Amended Articles amend and restate the Current Articles in a number of significant ways and are primarily as follows: increased the number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares from 3,750,000 and 1,000,000 to 10,000,000 and 2,500,000 respectively, and added a class of 1,000,000 Serial Preferred Shares; eliminated par value for for Class A Shares and Class B Shares; updated certain provisions relating to the payment of dividends; removed restrictions on the issuance of additional Class A Shares; clarified the method by which the Company may repurchase its shares; reduced the percentage of shareholder vote required to authorize corporate actions from two-thirds of the voting power to a majority of the voting power; and made other technical or conforming changes.

The Amended Regulations amend and restate the Current Regulations in a number of significant ways and are primarily as follows: updated certain provisions relating to the Company's meetings of shareholders in order to provide more consistency in the regulations regarding the Company's practices in this area; further clarifying the roles of the Company's officers and directors in conducting the Company's business; updated the Company's policy regarding the indemnification of its directors, officers, employees, and others; revised provisions allowing for the Board of Directors to adopt amendments to the Amended Regulations to the extent permitted by Ohio law; and made other technical or conforming changes.  

Detailed information related to the two changes approved by shareholders may be found in the 2012 Proxy Statement for the Special Meeting held October 11, 2012 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 14, 2012.

During fiscal 2013 the Company's business may require a short-term increase in inventory and accounts receivables. Whenever there may be a requirement to increase inventory in fiscal 2013 there will be a negative but temporary impact on liquidity. The Company has wages, headcount, product development, and marketing, administrative and sales related expenses in order to appropriately manage its working capital. The Company believes that internally generated funds and available short-term financing will provide sufficient liquidity to meet ongoing working capital requirements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are as presented in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012.

Forward-Looking Statements

The foregoing discussion includes forward-looking statements relating to the business of the Company. These forward-looking statements, or other statements made by the Company, are made based on management's expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and are subject to uncertainties and factors (including, but not limited to, those specified below) which are difficult to predict and, in many instances, are beyond the control of the Company. As a result, actual results of the Company could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any such forward-looking statements. These uncertainties and factors include (a) the Company's dependence upon a limited number of customers, (b) the highly competitive industry in which the company operates, which includes several competitors with greater financial resources and larger sales organizations, (c) the acceptance in the marketplace of new products and/or services developed or under development by the Company including automotive diagnostic products and indicating instrument products, (d) the ability of the Company to further establish distribution and a customer base in the automotive aftermarket, (e) the Company's ability to capitalize on market opportunities including state automotive emissions programs and OEM tool programs and (f) the Company's ability to obtain cost effective financing.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market Risk

The Company is exposed to certain market risks from transactions that are entered into during the normal course of business. The Company has not entered into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company's primary market risk is exposure related to interest rate risk. The Company's only debt subject to interest rate risk is its revolving credit facility. The Company had no outstanding balance on its credit facility at June 30, 2013, which is subject to a fixed rate of interest of 0.24%. As a result, the Company believes that the market risk relating to interest rate movements is minimal. 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

As of June 30, 2013, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013 in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files and submits under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Note 12 - Business Condition and Management Plan

Going Concern Note [Abstract]

Going Concern Note

12.  Business Condition and Management Plan

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations during the past several years due primarily to decreasing sales of existing product lines and a general economic downturn in all markets the Company serves.
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on improving the Company's profitability and cash flow and securing additional financing if needed. Management continues to review and revise its strategic plan and believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues and profitability through increased sales of existing products and the introduction of new products to the market place. Management believes that the actions presently being taken by the Company will provide the stimulus for it to continue as a going concern, however, because of the inherent uncertainties there can be no assurances to that effect. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Additionally, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards, currently valued at $0, that offset taxable income.

Management took steps to reduce expenses throughout the Company in fiscal 2009, 2010 and 2011 in the form of substantial reductions in personnel, wage reductions for all personnel and expenditure restrictions in most aspects of the Company’s operations. Anticipated cost savings were achieved during the past four years and management expects these measures to continue through fiscal 2013. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012 management entered into two unsecured convertible loan agreements that have provided approximately $675,000 of cash to date. One of the convertible loan agreements was fully converted during fiscal 2012 and the other on December 28, 2012.

In addition, on December 30, 2012 management entered into an amended unsecured convertible loan agreement and an additional revolving line of credit which may provide approximately $717,000 of liquidity to meet on going working capital requirements. One agreement is an unsecured revolving line of credit with a major shareholder who is also an employee and the other is an unsecured convertible loan agreement with a major shareholder who is also a Director as discussed in Notes 4 and 5. These facilities are available through December 2013.

The above available financing resources together with management’s revised strategic plan to increase revenues and profitability through increased sales of existing products, the introduction of new products to the market place and the revenues generated from the large order from a Tier 1 Supplier should provide the Company with the needed working capital for the foreseeable future.

Note 5 - Short-term Financing

5.  Short-term Financing

The Company had a credit agreement of $250,000 with Robert L. Bauman, one of its major shareholders who is also an employee of the Company. The agreement was to expire in April 2013 but was modified on December 31, 2012 to extend the maturity date to December 2013. Effective October 30, 2012 for the remainder of the agreement, the lender may terminate the agreement with 45 days written notice, but it is at the discretion of the Company to deny the termination notice until December 2013 if it will have a negative effect on the solvency of the Company.

The agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $250,000 with interest at 0.24% per annum and is unsecured and includes a three year warrant for 100,000 shares of Class A common stock at a price of $2.50 per share. In addition, the agreement generally allows for borrowing based on an amount equal to eighty percent of eligible accounts receivables or $250,000. During the three month period ended March 31, 2013 the Company borrowed $250,000 against this loan facility and the Company repaid the outstanding balance of $250,000 on the Revolving Credit Agreement with Robert L. Bauman on February 21, 2013. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under this loan facility at June 30, 2013.

In partial consideration for the extension of the revolving credit facility the Company and Bauman entered into a Warrant Agreement, dated December 30, 2012 whereby the Company issued a warrant to Bauman to purchase, at his option, up to 100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments. If not exercised, this warrant will expire on December 30, 2015.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value estimate for recognizing the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions which can materially affect the fair value estimates. The warrants are immediately exercisable and expire in December 2015. The fair value of the warrants issued is amortized over the one year credit agreement period. During the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013, $11,375 and $34,125 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the three and nine month month periods ended June 30, 2013: a risk free interest rate of 0.42%; an expected life of 3 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.0%; and a volatility factor of .84.

6.  Capital Stock, Treasury Stock, Contributed Capital and Stock Options

On February 27, 2013, the Company's 2013 Omnibus Equity Plan was approved and adopted by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company's Class A and Class B Shareholders.

The 2013 Omnibus Plan will provide the Company with the flexibility to grant a variety of share-based awards for covered employees, consultants and Directors. The 2013 Omnibus Plan provides for the grant of the following types of incentive awards: stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, performance shares and Class A Common Shares. Those who will be eligible for awards under the 2013 Omnibus Plan include employees who provide services to the Company and its affiliates, executive officers, non-employee Directors and consultants designated by the Compensation Committee. The Plan has 150,000 Class A Common Shares reserved for issuance. The Class A Common Shares may be either authorized, but unissued, common shares or treasury shares. No share-based awards have been granted under the 2013 Omnibus Equity Plan as of June 30, 2013.

Under the Company's expired Key Employees Stock Option Plans (collectively the "Employee Plans"), incentive stock options, in general, were exercisable for up to ten years, at an exercise price of not less than the market price on the date the option is granted. Non-qualified stock options may be granted at such exercise price and such other terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may determine. No options may be granted at a price less than $2.925. Under the expired Employee Plans there are no options currently available for grant and there are no options outstanding at June 30, 2013. Options for 26,850 shares at $3.55 per share expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

The Company's expired Outside Directors Stock Option Plans (collectively the "Directors Plans"), have provided for the automatic grant of options to purchase up to 31,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees of the Company, at the fair market value on the date of grant. Options for 31,000 Class A shares were outstanding at June 30, 2013 (33,000 shares at September 30, 2012 and 42,000 shares at June 30, 2012) at prices ranging from $2.925 to $11.00 per share. Options for 2,000 shares expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2013 at $3.67 per share. Options for 7,000 shares were granted under the expired Directors Plans during the three month period ended March 31, 2012, at a price of $2.925 per share. In addition, options for 3,000 shares expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2012 at $3.55 per share. All outstanding options under the expired Directors Plans become fully exercisable on March 8, 2015.

The following is a summary of the range of exercise prices for stock options outstanding and exercisable under the expired Directors Plans at June 30, 2013:

Directors Plans				Outstanding Stock Options		Weighted Average Share Price		Weighted Average Remaining Life		Number of Stock Options Exercisable		Weighted Average Share Price
Range of exercise prices:
$	2.925	-	5.25		17,000	$	3.34		6.9		11,000	$	3.56
$	6.00	-	7.25		8,000	$	6.43		4.4		8,000	$	6.43
$	10.50	-	11.00		6,000	$	10.75		4.3		6,000	$	10.75
					31,000	$	5.57				25,000	$	6.20

The Company accounts for Share-Based Payments under the modified prospective method for its stock options for both employees and non-employee Directors. Compensation cost for fixed based awards are measured at the grant date, and the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value estimates for recognizing the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions which can materially affect the fair value estimates. Employee stock options are immediately exercisable while Director's stock options are exercisable over a three year period. The fair value of stock option grants to Directors is amortized over the three year vesting period. During the three and the nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 respectively $1,208 and $5,257; $2,841 and $8,547 was expensed as share-based compensation. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 respectively: a risk free interest rate of 5.0% and 5.5%; an expected life of 10 and 10 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.0% and 0.0%; and a volatility factor of .87 and .75.

On October 11, 2012, the Company's Amended Articles of Incorporation and the Amended Code of Regulations were adopted by an affirmative vote of more than two-thirds of the Company's Class A and Class B Shareholders.

The Amended Articles amend and restate the Current Articles in a number of significant ways and are primarily as follows: increased the number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares from 3,750,000 and 1,000,000 to 10,000,000 and 2,500,000 respectively, and added a class of 1,000,000 Serial Preferred Shares; eliminated par value for for Class A Shares and Class B Shares; updated certain provisions relating to the payment of dividends; removed restrictions on the issuance of additional Class A Shares; clarified the method by which the Company may repurchase its shares; reduced the percentage of shareholder vote required to authorize corporate actions from two-thirds of the voting power to a majority of the voting power; and made other technical or conforming changes.

The Amended Regulations amend and restate the Current Regulations in a number of significant ways and are primarily as follows: updated certain provisions relating to the Company's meetings of shareholders in order to provide more consistency in the regulations regarding the Company's practices in this area; further clarifying the roles of the Company's officers and directors in conducting the Company's business; updated the Company's policy regarding the indemnification of its directors, officers, employees, and others; revised provisions allowing for the Board of Directors to adopt amendments to the Amended Regulations to the extent permitted by Ohio law; and made other technical or conforming changes.

Unissued shares of Class A common stock (958,233 shares) are reserved for the share-for-share conversion rights of the Class B common stock, stock options under the Directors Plans, conversion rights of the Convertible Promissory Note and available warrants.

4.  Convertible Notes Payable

On December 30, 2011, Hickok Incorporated entered into a Convertible Loan Agreement with Roundball, LLC and the Aplin Family Trust. Under the Convertible Loan Agreement, the Company issued a convertible note to Roundball in the amount of $466,879 and a convertible note to the Aplin Family Trust in the amount of $208,591. In addition, Roundball, LLC shall have the right to cause the Company to borrow up to an additional $466,880 from Roundball, LLC. The notes were unsecured, bore interest at a rate of 0.20% per annum and were set to mature on December 30, 2012.

In addition, the Company sold 20,000 Class B Common Shares currently held in treasury to Roundball at a price of $1.85 per share per a subscription agreement between the Company and Roundball dated December 30, 2011.

The notes were convertible by the Investors at any time into Class A Common Shares of the Company, at a conversion price of $1.85 per share, although up to no more than 504,735 Conversion Shares for Roundball and no more than 112,752 Conversion Shares for the Aplin Family Trust. The Company had the option to convert the notes at the expiration date, if the investors had not during the course of the agreement. On December 30, 2011, Roundball converted $233,438 into Class A Common Shares of the Company. In addition, on August 20, 2012 Roundball converted the remaining $233,441 under the Convertible Loan Agreement into Class A Common Shares of the Company.

On December 28, 2012, the Aplin Family Trust converted the $208,591 under the Convertible Loan Agreement into Class A Common Shares of the Company.

On December 30, 2012 management entered into an amended Convertible Loan Agreement with Roundball which may provide approximately $467,000 of liquidity to meet on going working capital requirements. The amended Convertible Loan Agreement is by and between the Company and a major shareholder who is also a Director modifying the terms and extending the due date of the loan agreement from December 30, 2012 to December 31, 2013 and modifying the terms to allow $250,000 of borrowing on the agreement at the Company's discretion at an interest rate of 0.24%.

In partial consideration for Amendment No. 1, the Company and Roundball entered into a Warrant Agreement, dated  December 30, 2012, whereby the Company issued a warrant to Roundball to purchase, at its option, up to 100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments. If not exercised, this warrant will expire on December 30, 2015. Roundball is an affiliate of Steven Rosen, a Director of the Company.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value estimate for recognizing the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions which can materially affect the fair value estimates. The warrants are immediately exercisable and expire in December 2015. The fair value of the warrants issued is amortized over the one year amended convertible loan agreement period. During the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013, $11,375 and $34,125 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013: a risk free interest rate of 0.42%; an expected life of 3 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.0%; and a volatility factor of .84.

Options to purchase 42,000 shares of common stock during the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 2012 at prices ranging from $2.925 to $11.00 per share were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option's effect was antidilutive or the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common share.
