ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

General Development of Business

Hickok Incorporated was founded in 1910 and organized in 1915 as an Ohio corporation, and first offered its securities to the public in 1959. Except as otherwise stated, the terms "Company" or "Hickok" as used herein mean Hickok Incorporated and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Supreme Electronics LLC and Waekon LLC. Hickok develops and manufactures products used by companies in the transportation industry. Primary markets served are automotive, emissions testing, aircraft, and locomotive with sales both to original equipment manufacturers (OEM's) and to the aftermarkets.

The Company's Internet address is http://www.hickok-inc.com. Hickok makes available free of charge on or through its website its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 12(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company electronically files such materials with, or furnishes it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The SEC maintains an Internet site that contains these reports at www.sec.gov.

The Company was founded producing D’Arsonval indicators and continues to manufacture these products today. The current Indicator product line is focused on highly reliable specialized indicators used in the cockpits of certain aircraft, locomotives, and transit vehicles. It is a stable line of business with few competitors in the market. The indicator business represents approximately 26% of the Company’s revenue.

Until the mid 1980s, Hickok was known primarily for its ability to develop and manufacture electronic instruments for electronic servicers, precision indicating instruments for aircraft, locomotive, and industrial applications, and electronic teaching systems for vocational schools. For the past twenty-six years the Company has used this expertise to develop and manufacture electronic diagnostic tools and equipment used by automotive technicians in the automotive service market. This is now the Company's largest business segment. The Company generated approximately 74% of its fiscal 2013 revenue from designing and manufacturing diagnostic tools for automotive diagnostics and testing. These tools enable service technicians to identify problems in both electronic systems and other non-electronic systems in automobiles and trucks.

Eighteen years ago, two large automotive OEM companies comprised over 80% of the Company's business. A substantial portion of this business was contingent on large programs initiated by these OEMs on a year-to-year basis. The Company recognized that OEMs were changing and that the likelihood of the continuation of these yearly large programs was diminishing. Recognizing that customer diversification was desirable and that much of the technology that had been developed for OEMs could have application to the non-dealer service market (known as the aftermarket), the Company added new products, customers and an established aftermarket sales channel with the acquisition of Waekon Industries in 1998. As a result, the Company executed a strategy to use this existing technical and manufacturing expertise and to develop sales and marketing skills applicable to the automotive aftermarket service industry. The Company uses Waekon, Hickok, and Hickok/Waekon as the brands of its products that are primarily marketed to aftermarket service organizations.

The Company continues to develop aftermarket service tools and in recent years has successfully cultivated relationships with Tier 1 OEM service tool suppliers as well. The Company has increased its revenue from these customers in the past several years and now puts as much emphasis on this market segment as it does with respect to  tools for the aftermarket. Most of these tools are branded to the Tier 1 supplier’s requirements. These tools tend to be more complex than typical aftermarket tools, but the technology developed often has application to subsequent aftermarket products.

The Company's operations are currently concentrated in the United States of America. Sales are primarily to domestic customers, although the Company also makes sales to international customers through domestically based distribution companies.

Operating Segment Information

The Company's operations are combined into two reportable business segments: 1) indicators and gauges and 2) automotive diagnostic tools and equipment. Reference is made to "Segment and Related Information" included in the notes to the financial statements.

Indicators and Gauges

For over one hundred years the Company has developed and manufactured precision indicating instruments used in aircraft, locomotives and other applications. In recent years the Company has specialized in aircraft and locomotive cockpit instruments. Within the aircraft market, instruments are sold primarily to manufacturers or servicers of business, military, and pleasure aircraft. Within the locomotive market, indicators are sold to both original equipment manufacturers and to operators of railroad equipment. Indicators and gauges represented approximately 26% of the Company's sales for fiscal 2013 and 34% for fiscal 2012. A number of the Company's aircraft instruments are FAA certified and a number of others are type certified with aircraft manufacturers. The Company also produces both movements and complete indicators that are used in high-reliability applications on several active military aircraft.

Indicator revenues continued to recover somewhat in fiscal 2013 from the economic downturn and are expected to remain consistent in foreseeable future years. Although the Company does not view this segment as having a high growth potential, it does contribute significant revenues and margins. The Company believes year to year variation of revenue is more dependent on customer timing than any general market direction.

Automotive Diagnostic Tools and Equipment

The Company has concentrated on designing and marketing instruments used to diagnose automotive electronic systems. These products were initially sold to Ford Motor Company but are now sold to several automotive OEMs, and to the aftermarket using jobbers, wholesalers and mobile distributors. Sales of products designed specifically to OEM requirements have been balanced with products developed for automotive aftermarket servicers and the emissions testing industry. The aftermarket accounted for approximately 26% of the Company's automotive diagnostic and specialty tool sales in fiscal 2013 and 43% for fiscal 2012. As a whole, automotive diagnostic tools and equipment represented approximately 74% of the Company's sales for fiscal 2013 and 66% for fiscal 2012. The percentage increase was due primarily to significantly higher OEM sales sales in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012.

The Company's primary expertise is electronic measurement of physical properties and it has cultivated a reputation for developing innovative tools for automotive diagnostics. The Company uses this reputation as leverage when it introduces new offerings. Our recent focus on tools for automotive technicians results in low cost tools that are easy to use, save technicians time, and improve diagnostic accuracy. OEM tools tend to be tools that are sophisticated and allow the technician diagnostic access to vehicle systems that are otherwise inaccessible for the technician to pinpoint the vehicle's issue. An example of this is the Active Fuel Injector Tester ("AFIT"), which the Company introduced several years ago to General Motors dealers. In 2009, at the OEM's request, we developed accessory interfaces that allow the same level of ability to diagnose fuel injection system issues for Diesel engines and the recently introduced Gasoline Direct Injection ("GDI") engines. Recently General Motors has expressed renewed interest in this DMU accessory that addresses Gasoline Direct Inject engines and may be considering requiring the tool in all of their North American dealers. In addition, they have inquired about the technology for a global tool to address the GDI engines.

Over the past five years, we have updated essentially all our aftermarket products and introduced a number of new products that advance the art in vehicle diagnostics. An OEM has expressed interest in two of these aftermarket products as possible tools required in their dealerships. The new products and improved economy are resulting in increased sales activity and revenues. Our sales group has initiated a series of new programs aimed at increasing efforts from our national sales representative organization and preliminary results have been very positive. During the past year we have been successful in having a number of our products incorporated in several large retail organization offerings such as Home Depot and Amazon. In addition, we are developing several additional products for introduction in the spring and summer of 2014.

Our reputation for developing and producing products for OEM dealership use has enabled us to establish a working relationship with Bosch Automotive Service Solutions (formerly SPX Dealer Equipment Services), the Tier I supplier to most North American OEMs. Our business with Bosch has grown steadily over the past few years, and last year resulted in an order for approximately $1,317,000 for a Breakout Box ("BOB") sold to Chrysler. Further, we are working with Bosch on the gasoline direct injection tool described above. Additionally we are producing a number of products for Bosch to their design. We have achieved a "Preferred Supplier" status with Bosch. As a result, we were able to grow this business about 30% in 2012 and 250% in 2013 due to the BOB order. Our plan is to continue to target opportunities to develop and manufacture OEM tools with all Tier 1 suppliers.

Our New Generation Star product ("NGS") was a major revenue contributor for us from 1994 to 2007. In 2008 Ford began actively pursuing sales of its factory tool to the aftermarket. In 2007 the Company introduced NGS PC, essentially a PC-based implementation of the classic NGS product that is at a functionality level well above other aftermarket scan tools for Ford vehicles. NGS PC compares favorably with the Ford factory tool and is priced significantly lower to customers. In early 2009, the Company introduced a new product called NGS Mach II that updated the hardware platform of the classic NGS. While sales of both products have been slow, during the past year we developed a new subscription program for the products that we believe will make them far more attractive to aftermarket servicers in the hope of increasing sales considerably. The new program will launch January 1, 2014.

Emissions testing products for gas caps and gas tanks were a major revenue contributor for the Company for a number of years as new state testing programs were implemented. Despite very few state programs being implemented in recent years, we continue to enjoy a base level of business for these products as replacements and as new stations join the various state programs. Recently, a competing California Bureau of Automotive Repair approved manufacturer of gas cap testers announced that it was discontinuing the manufacture and service of their gas cap testers. We enjoyed increased business in replacement testers during fiscal year 2013 and expect that increased business to continue into the future.

Over the last two years the Company has emphasized the use of electronic media both as a sales tool and in operations. We have made major improvements in our website, use of social media, use of videos for training and sales promotion on our products, and a web store for customer convenience. In our sales department, contact with our representatives has become more frequent with less travel through webinars and other electronic means. In manufacturing and engineering, most of our purchases and quoting are done electronically which has shortened lead-time, improved efficiency, and improved customer service. During fiscal 2013 we upgraded our MIS system to the latest capability and in fiscal 2014 we are planning a major upgrade to the Company's IT infrastructure both hardware and software. Our plan is to continue this emphasis to further improve our presence in the electronic market places.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

Raw materials essential to the business are acquired from a large number of United States of America manufacturers and some materials are now purchased from European and Southeast Asian sources. Materials acquired from the electronic components industry include transistors, integrated circuits, resistors, capacitors, switches, potentiometers, micro controllers, and other passive parts. Fabricated metal or plastic parts are generally purchased from local suppliers or manufactured by the Company from raw materials. In general, the required materials are available, if ordered with sufficient lead times, from multiple sources at current prices.

Importance of Patents, Licenses, Franchises, Trademarks and Concessions

The Company presently has several patents that relate to several of its products. The Company believes that its position in the industry is dependent upon its present level of engineering skill, research, sales relationships, production techniques and service. However, the Company does have several basic methodology patents related to products it offers that it considers very important to future revenue. Of the Company's most critical patents, one is related to the testing of evaporative emissions systems that was the basis for the Company's product offering for the State of California. This patent expires in the year 2022. Another critical patent is related to vehicle fuel cap testing which expires in 2018. The Company monitors the marketplace for infringement of its patents and intends to pursue its rights should an infringement take place. The Company is currently engaged in such a proceeding. See Item 3 Legal Proceedings. Other than the names "Hickok" and "Waekon", the Company does not have any material licenses, trademarks, franchises or concessions.

Seasonality

The Company believes that there is a seasonality to the automotive aftermarket revenues. Typically the first and fourth quarters tend to be weaker than the other two quarters in this market. Orders for OEM or emissions testing products are primarily subject to customer timing requirements and have no known seasonality aspect to them. As a result, operating results can fluctuate widely from quarter to quarter and year to year.

Practices Relative to Working Capital Items

The nature of the Company's business requires it to maintain sufficient levels of inventory to meet rapid delivery requirements of customers. The Company provides its customers with payment terms prevalent in the industry.

Dependence on Single or Few Customers

Several aftermarket distribution companies and several equipment OEMs have become significant sources of revenue for the Company. Sales in fiscal 2013 to Bosch, a Tier 1 supplier to numerous OEMs, amounted to approximately $2,304,000 or 36% of the consolidated sales of the Company, sales to General Electric amounted to approximately $651,000 or 10% of the consolidated sales of the Company and sales to ESP amounted to approximately $242,000 or 4% of the consolidated sales of the Company. In fiscal 2012 sales to Bosch amounted to approximately $905,000 or 19% of the consolidated sales of the Company, sales to General Electric amounted to approximately $710,000 or 15% of the consolidated sales of the Company and sales to ESP amounted to approximately $229,000 or 5% of the consolidated sales of the Company. Sales to Bosch amounted to approximately $883,000 or 17% of the consolidated sales of the Company, sales to General Electric amounted to approximately $459,000 or 9% of the consolidated sales of the Company and sales to ESP amounted to approximately $418,000 or 8% of the consolidated sales of the Company during fiscal 2011. The Company does not have exclusive supply agreements or long-term contractual relationships with these large customers.

Backlog

The Company's order backlog as of September 30, 2013 totaled $631,000 as compared to $707,000 as of September 30, 2012 and $593,000 as of September 30, 2011. The decrease in fiscal 2013 versus 2012 was due to decreased orders for indicators and gauges of approximately $36,000. In addition, automotive diagnostic products orders to OEM's decreased by approximately $56,000 and $2,000 for emission products, offset by an increase of $18,000 for non-emission aftermarket products. The increase in fiscal 2012 versus 2011 was primarily due to increased orders for indicators and gauges of $147,000. Automotive diagnostic products orders to OEM's increased by approximately $69,000, offset by a decrease of $35,000 for non-emission aftermarket products and $67,000 for emission products in fiscal 2012.

Government Contract Renegotiation

No major portion of the business is open to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the election of the United States Government. The amount of revenue derived from government contracts is currently minimal and not material.

Competitive Conditions

The Company is engaged in a highly competitive industry and faces competition from domestic and international firms. Several of the Company's competitors have greater financial resources and larger sales organizations than the Company. Competition with respect to the Company's diagnostic tool business arises from the existence of a number of other significant manufacturers in the field, such as Snap-On and Bosch, which dominate the available market in terms of total sales. The instrumentation industry is composed primarily of companies that specialize in the production of particular items as compared to a full line of instruments. The Company believes that its competitive position in this field is in the area of smaller, specialized products, an area in which the Company has operated and in which the Company has established itself competitively by offering high-quality, high-performance products in comparison to high-volume, mass-produced items.

The Company depends on the automotive industry for sales of its OEM and aftermarket products. The Company's results of operations were adversely affected by the deterioration in the automotive industry's performance during the fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010 years, as well as poor economic conditions throughout the country. The Company anticipates that it will continue to face significant challenges due to competition, however markets appear to be improving. The two markets are driven by different considerations. The OEM market tends to be driven by the need for new tools due to the introduction of new technologies in vehicles or excessive warranty costs. Because of dealership economics, OEMs are still reluctant to require dealers to purchase service tools. The aftermarket is largely driven by the economics of fixing vehicles. During poor economic times, purchases can be delayed. Although aftermarket parts suppliers have done well during the past few years, aftermarket tool suppliers have not. Our strategy of developing products that target the technician and low cost tools for shop use is an outgrowth of these realities in the marketplace. We believe substantial opportunities for growth depends primarily on the introduction of new and innovative products to the sectors we service.

In addition to automotive service products, the Company diversified some years ago into the emissions testing market. This market has also been depressed partially because EPA requirements for state emissions testing program requirements have changed and partially because state budgets have not allowed the implementation of new testing programs. The Company has experienced improved sales of emissions products in part due to the discontinuance of certain emissions products by a competitor and we expect to see continued improvement in this market.

Research and Development Activities

The Company expensed as incurred product development costs of $939,373 in 2013, $938,058 in 2012 and $987,114 in 2011. These expenditures included engineering product support and development of manuals for both of the Company's business segments.

Compliance with Environmental Provisions

The Company's capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position are not materially affected by compliance with federal, state and local environmental provisions which have been enacted or adopted to regulate the distribution of materials into the environment.

Number of Persons Employed

Total employment by the Company at September 30, 2013 was 79 full-time employees which represents a 4% increase from 76 employees in fiscal 2012 and a 11% increase from 71 employees in fiscal 2011. The Company has no part-time employees. None of the employees are represented by a union. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be good.

Financial Information Concerning Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, all manufacturing, research and development and administrative operations were conducted in the United States of America. Revenues derived from export sales approximated $148,000 in 2013, $163,000 in 2012, and $214,000 in 2011. Shipments to Australia, Canada, England, Mexico and Taiwan make up the majority of export sales.

The Company believes its plants and offices are in satisfactory operating condition, well maintained, adequate for the uses to which they are put and are adequately insured. Both of the Company's business segments utilize these properties.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company is the plaintiff in a suit pursuing patent infringement against a competitor in the emissions market (Hickok Incorporated v. Systech International, LLC and Delphi Corporation) currently pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The suit alleges infringement by the defendants on two of the Company's emission product patents. On one patent, which is related to gas cap testing, there were multiple items sold by Systech International, LLC in several markets over a period of several years. On the second patent, which relates to the Company's method for evaporative emissions testing used in California, there were multiple items sold into the California market during 2007 by Systech International, LLC and Delphi Corporation. The suit against Systech International, LLC was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio Eastern Division on November 16, 2007 alleging the gas cap testing infringement. In January 2008 infringement of the Company's evaporative emissions patent was added to the suit. In August 2013 there was a court required mediation that did not result in a settlement. The suit is proceeding to stages leading up to the trial phase. The Company is seeking damages estimated at approximately $299,000 for the gas cap testing patent infringement and approximately $3,148,000 for the evaporative emissions testing patent infringement.

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 was a named defendant along with numerous other companies in a suit in Wayne County Circuit Court in the State of Michigan regarding asbestos harm to the plaintiff (Becker v. Hickok Incorporated). The Company was dismissed from the suit in August 2013.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Introduction

The Company has focused its expertise to develop and manufacture electronic diagnostic tools and equipment used by automotive technicians in the automotive market. This is now the Company's largest business segment. The Company continues to design and manufacture precision indicating instruments. The Indicator segment represented approximately6% of the Company's fiscal 2013 revenue.

In 1998 the Company purchased Waekon Industries, a tool manufacturer with established products and sales channels to the aftermarket. After the acquisition of Waekon, the Company expanded aftermarket sales channels and added new product offerings. Those efforts resulted in aftermarket revenues steadily rising as a result of new products developed for aftermarket servicers and success selling the NGS Scan Tool for Ford to aftermarket customers. During the intervening years there were large sales orders from emissions or OEM customers that caused aftermarket sales to remain less than 50% of total automotive product sales. In fiscal 2013, approximately 26% of the Company’s automotive diagnostic tool revenue was from aftermarket customers and 74% was from OEM and emissions customers. This percentage change was due primarily to a large OEM order obtained and delivered in fiscal 2013. Aftermarket revenue declined to $1,199,000 from approximately $1,327,000 in fiscal 2012 largely as a result of the elimination of non-profitable products. In fiscal 2012, approximately 43% of the Company’s automotive diagnostic tool revenue was from aftermarket customers and 57% was from OEM and emissions customers. Aftermarket revenue declined to $1,327,000 from approximately $1,496,000 in fiscal 2011 largely as a result of lower sales of Shop targeted products. In fiscal 2011, approximately 41% of the Company’s automotive diagnostic tool revenue was from aftermarket customers and 59% was from OEM and emissions customers. The depressed conditions in the OEM and emissions markets were largely responsible for the sharp decline in their revenues in fiscal 2012 and 2011. These markets improved significantly in fiscal 2013. The Company intends to continue to pursue OEM and emissions opportunities and we expect the development emphasis for fiscal 2014 to be on aftermarket and OEM products. In late 2011, four aftermarket products were introduced and a sales emphasis on developing stronger relationships with key distributors was implemented as part of the Company’s short-term strategy. In fiscal 2012, an additional four products for the same targeted technicians were also introduced. In 2013 an additional three products were introduced as a continuation of this strategy. In 2014 we expect to introduce an additional two products and develop several OEM products as well.

The Company has changed its strategy related to OEM customers. In the past, we often developed a product and modified it to a specific OEM’s requirements after interesting them in its value. The Company has been cultivating a relationship with the Tier I supplier to most North American OEMs. We have achieved a preferred supplier status with them and currently produce a number of products used by various OEM's. We have been able to grow this business approximately 30% in 2012 and 250% in 2013 due to the BOB order described here under "Business". We are currently cultivating a relationship with an additional Tier 1 Tool Supplier to other OEM's. Our plan is to continue to target opportunities to develop and manufacture OEM tools with all Tier 1 suppliers.

The Company has offered products for government sponsored emissions testing programs for a number of years.  The Company also developed a product to test for leaks in vehicle evaporative systems (gas tanks). The Company has patents for both of these technologies and is currently involved in a lawsuit with a company that we believe infringed on our patents. Sales of these products in prior years resulted in revenues that ranged from several hundred thousand dollars to over $6,900,000 in fiscal 2008. Most new emissions testing programs emphasize OBD II testing and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency allows minimal credit for testing either gas caps or gas tanks on those vehicles. However, there is still a need for replacement products and equipment for new installations requiring cap or tank testing that provides a significant revenue source for the Company. In fiscal 2013, revenue for this segment was approximately $936,000 compared to $550,000 in fiscal 2012. In early fiscal 2013, the only competitor for gas cap testing equipment for state programs announced it was leaving the business and significant 2013 emission sales resulted from sales of our products as replacements for theirs. We expect the market for emission products to remain stable in near future.

The development efforts for fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 were concentrated on developing lower cost aftermarket products targeted at automotive service technicians as personal tools. This segment’s revenue was declining rapidly but, through the introduction of two products in late 2011 and four more products in 2012, we were able to return revenues for this segment to 2010 levels. In 2013 we split our development efforts between aftermarket and OEM. In 2013 we discontinued a number of non-profitable aftermarket products and introduced two additional products late in the year. The result was a decrease in aftermarket revenues but an increase in margin. We expect to continue to split development efforts in 2014, but anticipate aftermarket sales to increase significantly due to the efforts of the past three years and introduction of two significant new products later in fiscal 2014.

Our sales group has continued efforts to revitalize our warehouse distribution channel with the products that have been successful through mobile distribution. In addition, we are implementing a new policy for our nationwide representatives to this channel that has been well received thus far. NGS sales have stabilized, albeit at a much lower level and these products are still an important revenue source for the Company. We are introducing a new product concept on NGS PC that we believe will increase sales and margins while reducing end user costs.

Recently, a major OEM has expressed renewed interest in a product we developed in 2008 that relates to fuel system testing on Gasoline Direct Injection engines. We are optimistic that the OEM may require the product in all their dealerships which would result in substantial sales. This major OEM has also inquired about a potential “global” version of the technology. In 2011 management decided that these products could have application to both automotive and truck aftermarket service shops as shop tools. The Company introduced two of the OEM products to the automotive distribution channel and embarked on a project to develop distribution channels to truck repair shops in mid-2011. While the efforts to penetrate these distribution channels with these products has resulted in uneven success thus far, we are continuing to explore new opportunities to expand our markets for shop tools.

The Company has placed a major emphasis on expansion of our use of the Internet and other electronic media to sell our products, increase customer contact and awareness, and improve operations. We are offering a few products for sale direct to customers through electronic media and directing customers to our distributors for products sold through distribution. In addition, we have sales and training videos on nearly all of our newer products that can be viewed by customers on their computers. The Company plans to continue the emphasis on expansion of the use of electronic media in fiscal 2014.

The timing of order releases and large program implementations in the Company's automotive diagnostic equipment business can cause wide fluctuations in the Company's operating results both on a quarter-to-quarter and a year-to-year basis. Orders for such equipment can be large, are subject to customer schedules, and may result in substantial variations in quarterly and yearly sales and earnings. For example, the first and second quarters of fiscal 2013 benefited from a large order with a Tier 1 supplier to an OEM. In fiscal 2011 and 2012 there were no such large opportunities.

The Company’s indicator product revenue increased 3% in fiscal 2013 and while its percentage of total Company revenues decreased to 26% from 34% in fiscal 2012. The year to year increase was primarily a result of increased customer orders of government funded programs for the military. The decline in total segment sales to overall Company sales during the current fiscal year was the result of automotive diagnostics product sales increasing significantly due to the large order with a Tier 1 supplier. The Company’s indicator product revenue increased 29% in fiscal 2012 from fiscal 2011 and its percentage of total Company revenues increased to 34% from 25% in fiscal 2011. The year to year increase was primarily a result of increased customer orders of government funded programs for the military. The Company anticipates indicator sales will continue at current levels in fiscal 2014 and into the foreseeable future. Management feels that resources dedicated to this segment are adequate at the present time.

Looking forward, the introduction of new automotive diagnostic products to the aftermarket on a regular basis is very important for the growth of the business segment. Management implemented steps to reduce expenses in early fiscal 2009 due to the economic downturn and uncertainty in the markets the Company serves. These reductions included rate reductions for all employees. Additional personnel reductions were implemented during fiscal 2011 and a strategy to develop and market lower cost products directed primarily to technicians was also implemented. The cutbacks slowed the new product development process, however, the Company has taken precautions to maintain its technologies. Management believes the current resources are sufficient to develop aftermarket products and to react to any large opportunities that may result from our emphasis on the Tier I Suppliers to OEMs. Management plans to continue tight control of expenses in marketing, engineering, administrative and sales, and related expenses until revenue will support adding additional resources.

Expense Control

Management continues to monitor its expense reduction initiatives implemented and revised from 2008 to 2011. During fiscal 2013 and 2012, management developed a plan that included a limited increase in personnel and a small increase in the compensation of existing personnel. The changes were intended to accelerate both the introduction of new products and to enhance the sales of existing products through improved market presence and promotion. Management believes its strategy to improve revenue and profitability aided results in fiscal 2013 and will continue to aid results during fiscal 2014. The Company currently has no plans to add resources in fiscal 2014 unless revenue opportunities warrant such an increase.

Reportable Segment Information

The Company is required to report segment information disclosures based on how management evaluates operating performance and resource allocations. The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments: 1) indicators and gauges, and 2) automotive related diagnostic tools and equipment.

Indicators and Gauges

This 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.

Automotive Diagnostic Tools and Equipment

This segment consists primarily of products designed and manufactured to support the testing or servicing of automotive and truck systems using electronic means to measure vehicle parameters. These products are sold to OEMs 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.

Results of Operations

Sales for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 increased to $6,466,172, an increase of approximately 36% from fiscal 2012 sales of $4,761,289. This increase in sales was volume-driven and attributable primarily to higher product sales of approximately $1,748,000. Service sales in fiscal 2013 decreased by approximately $43,000 compared to fiscal 2012 due to volume. Product sales were $6,190,260 in fiscal 2013 compared to $4,442,133 in fiscal 2012. The increase in product sales occurred in both the automotive diagnostic equipment segment and the indicator and gauge segment. Within the automotive diagnostic products, OEM products and emission products sales increased approximately $1,437,000 and $381,000 respectively offset by a decrease in aftermarket products of approximately $128,000. Sales of indicator products increased in fiscal 2013 by approximately $58,000 and was volume related due primarily to increased Military movement orders. Fiscal 2013 benefited a large order from a Tier 1 Supplier to a large OEM. In addition, fiscal 2013 benefited from increased gas cap tester sales of approximately $300,000 due to the exit from the market of our only competitor in gas cap testing testers. The reduction in service sales was volume related and attributable to lower repair sales.

Sales for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 decreased to $4,761,289, a decrease of approximately 6% from fiscal 2011 sales of $5,068,613. This decrease in sales was volume-driven and attributable primarily to lower product sales of approximately $241,000. Service sales in fiscal 2012 decreased by approximately $67,000 compared to fiscal 2011 due to volume. Product sales were $4,442,133 in fiscal 2012 compared to $4,682,830 in fiscal 2011. The decrease in product sales occurred in the automotive diagnostic equipment segment. Within the automotive diagnostic products, OEM products, aftermarket products and emission products sales decreased approximately $133,000, $169,000 and $323,000 respectively. Sales of indicator products increased in fiscal 2012 by approximately $385,000 and was volume related due primarily to increased Military movement orders. Fiscal 2011 benefited from several small state emissions programs requiring gas cap testing products. The reduction in service sales was volume related and attributable to lower repair sales.

Cost of products sold in fiscal 2013 was $3,359,727 or 54.3% of net product sales compared to $2,787,212 or 62.7% of net product sales in fiscal 2012. Cost of products sold during fiscal 2011 was $2,732,876 or 58.4% of net product sales. The dollar increase in the cost of products sold to product sales between fiscal 2013 and 2012 was due primarily to the increase in sales volume. The percentage decrease was was due to a change in product mix. The dollar and percentage increase in the cost of products sold to product sales between fiscal 2012 and 2011 was due primarily to a change in product mix.

Cost of services sold in fiscal 2013 was $138,307 or 50.1% of net service sales compared to $216,949 or 68.0% respectively in fiscal 2012. Cost of services sold during fiscal 2011 was $293,641 or 76.1% of net service sales. The dollar and percentage decrease between fiscal 2013 and 2012 was due primarily to price adjustments, lower costs and the elimination of certain products for chargeable repairs. The dollar and percentage decrease between fiscal 2012 and 2011 was due primarily to lower costs for chargeable repairs and cost reductions.

Product development expenditures in fiscal 2013 were $939,373 or 15.2% of product sales compared to $938,058 or 21.1%, respectively, in fiscal 2012. Product development expenditures during fiscal 2011 were $987,114 or 21.1% of product sales. The percentage decrease between fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 was due primarily to the increase in sales volume during fiscal 2013. The dollar increase was primarily in research and experimental material expense and labor costs of approximately $3,000 and $1,000 respectively, offset in part by a decrease in travel expenses of $3,000. The dollar decrease between fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 was due primarily to the continuation of the cost cutting measures implemented during fiscal 2011. Decreases were primarily in labor costs, occupancy and maintenance expense and research and experimental material expenses of approximately $43,000, $7,000 and $1,000 respectively. The decreases were offset in part by an increase in travel expenses of $2,000. Management believes our current resources will be sufficient to maintain current product development commitments and to continue to develop a reasonable flow of new diagnostic products for both the OEM and aftermarket customers.

Marketing and administrative expenses amounted to $1,812,598 which was 28.0% of net sales in fiscal 2013, $1,616,320 or 33.9% of net sales in fiscal 2012 and $1,734,257 or 34.2% of net sales in fiscal 2011. The percentage decrease in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012 was due to the higher sales volume in fiscal 2013. The dollar increase in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012 was due to increases in both marketing and administrative expenses. Marketing expenses were approximately $761,000 in fiscal 2013 compared to $626,000 a year ago. Within marketing expenses, increases were primarily in royalty expense of $48,000, commissions of $44,000, labor costs of $24,000, advertising of $12,000, promotion expense of $5,000 and collection expense of $1,000. The increases were offset in part by a decrease in outside consulting of $3,000. Administrative expenses were approximately $1,052,000 during the current fiscal year compared to $990,000 a year ago. The dollar increase was due primarily to increases in professional fees of $99,000, data processing fees of $7,000 and travel expense of $2,000. The increases were offset in part by a decrease in rent machinery and equipment of $14,000, depreciation of $12,000, repairs and maintenance costs of $6,000, directors fees of $4,000 and labor costs of $3,000.

The dollar decrease in marketing and administrative expenses in fiscal 2012 compared to fiscal 2011 was due primarily to the continuation of the cost cutting measures implemented in fiscal 2011. Marketing expenses were approximately $626,000 in fiscal 2012 compared to $731,000 in fiscal 2011. Within marketing expenses, decreases were primarily in travel expense of $25,000, labor costs of $22,000, advertising of $15,000, collection expense of $12,000, commissions of $10,000, promotion expense of $9,000occupancy and maintenance expense of $9,000, royalty expense of $5,000 and freight out of $3,000. The decreases were offset in part by an increase in outside consulting of $8,000. Administrative expenses were approximately $990,000 during fiscal 2012 compared to $1,003,000 in fiscal 2011. The dollar decrease was due primarily to decreases in labor costs of $70,000, directors fees of $19,000 data processing fees of $12,000, depreciation of $3,000, occupancy and maintenance expense of $3,000, and travel expenses of $1,000. The decreases were offset in part by an increase in professional fees of $94,000

Interest charges were $91,178 in fiscal 2013 compared with $5,956 in fiscal 2012 and $7,610 in fiscal 2011. The increase in interest charges in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012 was due primarily to recording as non-cash interest expense the present value of warrants issued in December 2012. The decrease in interest charges in fiscal 2012 compared to fiscal 2011 was due to a lower level of short-term borrowings on the Company's credit facility during fiscal 2012. The current credit facility with one of the Company's major shareholders, who is also an employee of the Company, is available through December 30, 2013.

Other income was $13,816 in fiscal 2013 compared with $19,240 in fiscal 2012 and $14,350 in fiscal 2011. Other income consists primarily of interest income on cash and cash equivalents and proceeds from the sale of scrap metal shavings. The decrease in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012 was due primarily to a decrease in the sale of scrap metal shaving of approximately $5,000 offset by an increase in interest income of approximately $3,000. In addition, fiscal 2013 did not have a gain on sale of fixed assets compared to fiscal 2012. The increase in interest income in fiscal 2013 was due to higher level of cash and cash equivalents available for investment. The increase in fiscal 2012 compared to fiscal 2011 was due primarily to the gain on sale of fixed assets of approximately $4,000. Interest income and miscellaneous income amounted to approximately $1,000 and $12,000 respectively for fiscal 2012. Interest income and miscellaneous income amounted to approximately $600 and $10,000 respectively for fiscal 2011. Currently, excess cash is invested in a money market account.

Income taxes in fiscal 2013 were $0 which includes a decrease in the valuation allowance on deferred income taxes of $114,400. In fiscal year 2012 and 2011 management recorded a valuation allowance in the amount of $187,400 and $255,600 respectively on the current year deferred taxes. This represents an effective income tax rate of 0% for each of the past two years. It is anticipated that the effective tax rate in fiscal 2014 will be similar to fiscal 2013. The expiration of the Company's net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards could occur before they can be used. The deferred tax benefits begin to expire in fiscal 2016.

Net income in fiscal 2013 was $138,805, or $.09 per share as compared to the net loss of $783,966 or $.59 per share in fiscal 2012. The improvement of approximately $923,000 in 2013 was due primarily to the increased sales volume attributed to the significant order from a Tier 1 supplier to an OEM. The net loss in fiscal 2012 was $783,966, or $.57 per share which was an increase of $111,431 as compared to the net loss of $672,535 or $.54 per share in fiscal 2011. The increased net loss was due primarily to a lower sales volume in 2012.

The Company has available a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $5,345,000 and research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $1,800,000 that begin to expire in fiscal 2016. The Company's entire deferred tax asset of $4,122,300 has been offset by a valuation allowance of $4,122,300. Because of the uncertainties involved with this significant estimate, it is reasonably possible that the Company's estimate may change.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Current assets of $3,199,326 at September 30, 2013 were 4.2 times current liabilities and the total of cash and cash equivalents and receivables was 2.1 times current liabilities. These ratios compare to 3.2 and 1.1 respectively at the end of fiscal 2012. Cash and cash equivalents was $938,852 at September 30, 2013 and $258,798 at September 30, 2012. Total current assets increased by approximately $375,000 from the previous year end due primarily to an increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $680,000. The increase was offset in part by a decrease in accounts receivable, inventory and prepaid expenses of approximately $65,000, $145,000 and $92,000, respectively. The decrease in inventory was due primarily to an increase in the obsolescence reserve during the current year. The decrease in prepaid expenses was due primarily to timing.

Working capital at September 30, 2013 was $2,442,454 as compared to $1,935,875 a year ago. The increase of approximately $507,000 was due primarily to an increase in cash and cash equivalents approximately $680,000 and a decrease in convertible notes payable of approximately $209,000, offset in part by a decrease in accounts receivable, inventory and prepaid expenses of approximately $65,000, $145,000 and $92,000. The decrease in inventory was due primarily to an increase in the obsolescence reserve in the current year.

Internally generated funds in fiscal 2013 were $685,922 and were adequate to fund the Company's primary non-operating cash requirements consisting of capital expenditures of $14,443 consisting of tooling and machining equipment for product manufacturing. The primary reason for the positive cash flow from operations in fiscal 2013 was the net income of $138,805, non-cash interest expense, non-cash depreciation, a reduction in accounts receivable, inventory and prepaid expenses, of $91,000, $64,186, $64,530, $144,954 and $91,615 respectively. In addition, accrued expenses increased by $89,083. Internally generated funds in fiscal 2012 were a negative $401,787. The primary reason for the negative cash flow from operations in fiscal 2012 was the net loss of $783,966. Internally generated funds in fiscal 2011 were a negative $706,017. The primary reason for the negative cash flow from operations in fiscal 2011 was the net loss of $672,535. The Company anticipates approximately $120,000 of capital expenditures during fiscal 2014 primarily to upgrade and replace the Company's IT infrastructure. The Company expects there will be internally generated funds in fiscal 2014 from operating activities in addition, to probable available short-term or long-term financing, to provide adequate funding of the Company's working capital needs.

Whenever there may be a requirement to increase inventory in fiscal 2014, there will be a negative but temporary impact on liquidity. As previously noted, management implemented expense reductions during fiscal 2009 and 2011 in response to the economic downturn and uncertainty in the markets the Company serves. These expense reductions continued for fiscal 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and are anticipated to continue into fiscal 2014. The Company has reduced headcount, product development, and marketing, administrative and sales related expenses at points during this expense reduction program  in order to appropriately manage its working capital.

In December 2012 management entered into a revolving line of credit and an amended Convertible Loan Agreement which may provide approximately $717,000 of liquidity to meet on going working capital requirements. The revolving line of credit represented an extension of an existing line of credit provided by a major shareholder and executive officer of the Company. The revolving line of credit extends the maturity date of the the existing line of credit to December 31, 2013, and reduces the interest rate applicable to borrowings from prime plus 3.0% to 0.24% (the applicable federal rate at December 2012). As partial consideration for these modified arrangements, the lender received a three-year warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. The amended Convertible Loan Agreement is between the Company and a major shareholder and Director. This amended agreement modified the terms of the original agreement by extending the due date of the loan agreement from December 30, 2012 to December 30, 2013 and modifying the terms to allow $250,000 of borrowing on the agreement at the Company's discretion. This agreement also included a three-year warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $2.50 per share. These facilities are available through December 2013. The revolving line of credit is not currently expected to be extended or renewed at this point but the convertible loan agreement may be renewed or extended through December 30, 2014.

Business Condition and Uncertainties

Until this past fiscal year the Company suffered recurring losses from operations due primarily to decreasing sales of existing product lines and a general economic downturn in all markets the Company serves. The resulting lower sales levels have impacted the Company's accounts receivable and cash balances. If this situation continues, it may prevent the Company from generating sufficient cash flow to sustain its operations.

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 marketplace. In addition, management took steps to reduce expenses described above under the caption "Expense Controls" and continues to monitor expenses closely. In addition, subsequent to the end of fiscal 2012, the Company entered into the financing arrangements described above under the caption "Liquidity and Capital Resources". 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.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Hickok has no off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 303 paragraph (a)(4)(ii)) that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company describes its significant accounting policies in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. However, in response to the SEC's Release No. FR-60, "Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies", issued December 12, 2001, the Company has identified the policies it believes are most critical to an understanding of the Company's financial statements. Since application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized as manufactured items are shipped to customers, legal title has passed, and all significant contractual obligations of the Company have been satisfied. Revenue from development contracts is recorded as agreed upon milestones are achieved.

Inventory Valuation and Reserves - Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company's business may require an increase in inventory of component parts, work-in-process and finished goods in order to meet anticipated delivery schedules of customers. However, we are responsible for excess and obsolete inventory purchases in excess of inventory needed to meet customer demand forecasts, as well as inventory purchases generally not covered by supply agreements, or parts that become obsolete before use in production. If our forecasts change or excess inventory becomes obsolete, the inventory reserves included in our financial statements may be understated.

Deferred Taxes - Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Significant factors considered by the Company in estimating the probability of the realization of deferred taxes include expectations of future earnings and taxable income, as well as application of tax laws in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

The Company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financing, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or persons, also known as "special purpose entities" (SPEs).

Impact of Inflation

Over the past four years, inflation has had a minimal effect on the Company because of low rates of inflation and the Company's policy minimizing the acceptance of long-term fixed rate contracts without provisions permitting adjustment for inflation.

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 and the automotive industry, (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 7A. 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 risks are exposure related to interest rate risk and equity market fluctuations. The Company's only debt subject to interest rate risk is its revolving credit facility. The Company has no outstanding balance on its credit facility at September 30, 2013, which is subject to a low fixed rate of interest. As a result, the Company believes that the market risk relating to interest rate movements is minimal.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS
HICKOK INCORPORATED
CLEVELAND, OHIO

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of HICKOK INCORPORATED as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended September 30, 2013. The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board "United States". Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Hickok Incorporated as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended September 30, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation :
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hickok Incorporated and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the financial statements.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards :
The Company did not incur any material impact to its financial condition or results of operations due to the adoption of any new accounting standards during the periods reported.

Concentration of Credit Risk :
The Company sells its products and services primarily to customers in the United States of America and to a lesser extent overseas. All sales are made in United States of America dollars. The Company extends normal credit terms to its customers. Customers in the automotive industry comprise 60% of outstanding receivables at September 30, 2013 (73% in 2012). Sales to three customers approximated $2,304,000, $651,000 and $242,000 (2013), $905,000, $710,000 and $229,000 (2012), $883,000, $459,000 and $418,000 (2011), and accounts receivable to these customers amounted to approximately $99,000, $163,000 and $14,000 (2013), $327,000, $66,000 and $25,000 (2012).

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements :
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition :
The Company records sales as manufactured items are shipped to customers on an FOB shipping point arrangement, at which time title passes and the earnings process is complete. The Company primarily records service sales as the items are repaired. The customer does not have a right to return merchandise unless defective or warranty related and there are no formal customer acceptance provisions. Sales returns and allowances were immaterial during each of the three years in the period ending September 30, 2013.

Product Warranties :
The Company warrants certain products against defects for periods ranging primarily from 12 to 48 months. The Company's estimated future warranty claims is included in "Accrued expenses" and are as follows:

		2013	2012	2011
Balance October 1		$451	$993	$3,415
	Current year provisions	8,690	7,564	163
	Expenditures	(9,052)	(8,106)	(2,585)
Balance September 30		$89	$451	$993

Product Development Costs :
Product development costs, which include engineering production support, are expensed as incurred. Research and development performed for customers represents no more than 1% of sales in each year. The arrangements do not include a repayment obligation by the Company.

Cash and Cash Equivalents :
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. From time to time the Company maintains cash balances in excess of the FDIC limits. The cash balance at September 30, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $938,852 and $258,798, respectively.

Accounts Receivable :
The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

Inventories :
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of:

	2013	2012
Raw materials and component parts	$852,229	$1,061,957
Work-in-process	590,687	451,733
Finished products	146,900	221,080
	$1,589,816	$1,734,770

Property, Plant and Equipment :
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Additions and betterments are capitalized. The depreciation policy of the Company is generally as follows:

Class	Method	Estimated Useful Lives
Buildings	Straight-line	10 to 40 years
Machinery and equipment	Straight-line	3 to 10 years
Tools and dies	Straight-line	3 years

Depreciation amounted to $64,186 (2013), $86,257 (2012), and $108,924 (2011).

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets :
Long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment and software are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the asset.

Shipping and Handling Costs :
Shipping and handling costs are classified as cost of product sold.

Advertising Costs :
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $6,558 (2013), $6,940 (2012) and $16,756 (2011).

Income Taxes :
The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus any change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

Income per Common Share :
Income per common share information is computed on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period as disclosed in Note 10.

3. NOTES RECEIVABLE

Selected details of notes receivable are as follows:

	Current Portion	Total
	2013	2013	2012

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 had 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 matured on December 30, 2012. In addition, the Company sold 20,000 Class B Common Shares 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.

The Company recorded interest expense on the Roundball and Aplin Family Trust notes of $0 and $103 respectively for fiscal 2013 and $303 and $314 respectively for fiscal 2012. As of September 30, 2013 no interest was paid.

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 which provided approximately $467,000 of liquidity to meet expected working capital requirements. The amended Convertible Loan Agreement was by and between the Company and a major shareholder who is also a Director. The amendment modified the terms and extending the due date of the loan agreement from December 30, 2012 to December 30, 2013 and modified the terms to allow $250,000 of borrowing on the agreement at the Company's discretion at an interest rate of 0.24%. This agreement may be extended or renewed through December 30, 2014.

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 being amortized over the one year amended convertible loan agreement period. During the current fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 $45,500 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the fiscal year ended September 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. This agreement is not currently expected to be extended or renewed. 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 current fiscal year 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. 

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 current fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, $45,500 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the fiscal year ended September 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.

The Company recorded interest expense of $75 through September 30, 2013. As of September 30, 2013 no interest was paid. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under this loan facility at September 30, 2013. Selected details of short-term borrowings for fiscal 2013 and long-term borrowings for fiscal 2012 are as follows:

	Amount	Weighted Average Interest Rate
Balance at September 30, 2013	$-	.24%
Average during 2013	$29,167	.24%
Maximum during 2013 (month end)	$250,000	.24%
Balance at September 30, 2012	$-	6.25%
Average during 2012	$83,333	6.25%
Maximum during 2012 (month end)	$250,000	6.25%

7. 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 September 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 September 30, 2013.

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 over a three year period to members of the Board of Directors who were not employees of the Company, at the fair market value on the date of grant. The options are exercisable for up to 10 years. All options granted under the Directors Plans become fully exercisable on March 8, 2015.

Non-cash compensation expense related to stock option plans for fiscal years ended September 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $6,465, $11,388 and $12,615 respectively.

Transactions involving the plan are summarized as follows:

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 fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, $6,465 and $11,388 respectively was expensed as share-based compensation. Total compensation costs related to nonvested awards not yet recognized is $2,837 (2014) and $543 (2015). The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for 2013 and 2012: a risk free interest rate of 5.0% and 5.0%; 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 .87.

8. CAPITAL STOCK, TREASURY STOCK, AND CONTRIBUTED CAPITAL

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 and 881,985 shares in 2013 and 2012 respectively) 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 (see note 4, 5 and 7). The Class A shares have one vote per share and the Class B shares have three votes per share, except under certain circumstances such as voting on voluntary liquidation, sale of substantially all the assets, etc. Dividends up to $.10 per year, noncumulative, must be paid on Class A shares before any dividends are paid on Class B shares.

9. INCOME TAXES

A reconciliation of the provision (recovery) of income taxes to the statutory Federal income tax rate is as follows:

		2013	2012	2011
Income (Loss) Before Provision for Income Taxes		$138,805	$(783,966)	$(672,535)

	Valuation allowance	(3,788,100)	(3,903,900)
	Total long-term deferred income taxes	-	-
	Total	$-	$-

The Company did not incur any material impact to its financial condition or results of operations due to the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

The Company is subject to U.S federal jurisdiction income tax examinations for the tax years 2009 through 2011. In addition, the Company is subject to state and local income tax examinations for the tax years 2009 through 2011.

The Company has available a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $5,345,000 and a contribution carryforward of approximately $26,000. The net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards will begin to expire in fiscal 2016.

Management has recorded a valuation allowance on the entire balance of deferred tax assets due to the continued losses during the past several years, the current economic uncertainties, the negative effects of the current economic crisis on all the Company's markets and concern that a more likely than not expiration of the Company's net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards could occur before they can be used.

The Company's ability to realize the entire benefit of its deferred tax assets requires that the Company achieve certain future earning levels prior to the expiration of its net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards. Because of the uncertainties involved with this significant estimate, it is reasonably possible that the Company's estimate may change in the near term.

11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company had a formula based profit sharing bonus plan for officers and key employees. The plan was eliminated with the adoption of the Amended Articles of Incorporation in October 2012. For fiscal years ended September 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the formula produced no bonus distribution.The bonus distribution was determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

The Company has a 401(k) Savings and Retirement Plan covering all full-time employees. Company contributions to the plan, including matching of employee contributions, are at the Company's discretion. For fiscal years ended September 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company made matching contributions to the plan in the amount of $16,003, $15,178 and $17,009 respectively. The Company does not provide any other post retirement benefits to its employees.

12. SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION

The Company's four business units have a common management team and infrastructure. The indicators and gauges unit has different technologies and customers than the other business units. Therefore, the business units have been aggregated into two reportable segments: 1.) indicators and gauges and 2.) automotive related diagnostic tools and equipment. The Company's management evaluates segment performance based primarily on operating earnings before taxes. Non-operating items such as interest income and interest expense are included in general corporate expenses. Depreciation expense on assets used in manufacturing are considered part of each segment's operating performance. Depreciation expense on non-manufacturing assets are included in general corporate expenses.

Indicators and Gauges

This 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 and pleasure aircraft. Within the locomotive market, indicators and gauges are sold to both original equipment manufacturers and to operators of railroad equipment.

Automotive Diagnostic Tools and Equipment

This 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 OEMs 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.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal 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 was a named defendant along with numerous other companies in a suit in the State of Michigan regarding asbestos harm to the plaintiff. The Company was dismissed from the suit in August 2013.

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to September 30, 2013 through the date the financial statements were submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission and has determined that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

15. 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 resulting lower sales levels have impacted the Company's accounts receivable and cash balances, if this situation continues it may prevent the Company from generating sufficient cash flow to sustain its operations.

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.

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. These facilities are available through December 2013. The revolving line of credit is not currently expected to be extended or renewed but the convertible loan agreement may be renewed or extended through December 30, 2014.

Management’s strategic plan to increase revenues and profitability through increased sales of existing products, the introduction of new products to the market place and the cash generated from the completion of the large order from a Tier 1 Supplier during the current fiscal year should provide the Company with the needed working capital for the next twelve months.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

Not Applicable.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of September 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 as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") were effective as of September 30, 2013 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that 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 fourth fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to maintaining records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company assets, (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that the Company's receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of the Company's management and directors, and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or the timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposal of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officeralong with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company's internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. An internal control system no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Also, any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods are subject to the risk that those internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Hickok Incorporated is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officeralong with the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013, as required by Rule 13a-15(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth in the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework for Small Public Companies issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework for Small Public Companies, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2013.

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 had 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 matured on December 30, 2012. In addition, the Company sold 20,000 Class B Common Shares 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.

The Company recorded interest expense on the Roundball and Aplin Family Trust notes of $0 and $103 respectively for fiscal 2013 and $303 and $314 respectively for fiscal 2012. As of September 30, 2013 no interest was paid.

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 which provided approximately $467,000 of liquidity to meet expected working capital requirements. The amended Convertible Loan Agreement was by and between the Company and a major shareholder who is also a Director. The amendment modified the terms and extending the due date of the loan agreement from December 30, 2012 to December 30, 2013 and modified the terms to allow $250,000 of borrowing on the agreement at the Company's discretion at an interest rate of 0.24%. This agreement may be extended or renewed through December 30, 2014.

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 being amortized over the one year amended convertible loan agreement period. During the current fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 $45,500 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the fiscal year ended September 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.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation :
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hickok Incorporated and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the financial statements.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards :
The Company did not incur any material impact to its financial condition or results of operations due to the adoption of any new accounting standards during the periods reported.

Concentration of Credit Risk :
The Company sells its products and services primarily to customers in the United States of America and to a lesser extent overseas. All sales are made in United States of America dollars. The Company extends normal credit terms to its customers. Customers in the automotive industry comprise 60% of outstanding receivables at September 30, 2013 (73% in 2012). Sales to three customers approximated $2,304,000, $651,000 and $242,000(2013), $905,000, $710,000 and $229,000 (2012), $883,000, $459,000 and $418,000 (2011), and accounts receivable to these customers amounted to approximately $99,000, $163,000 and $14,000 (2013), $327,000, $66,000 and $25,000 (2012).

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements :
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition :
The Company records sales as manufactured items are shipped to customers on an FOB shipping point arrangement, at which time title passes and the earnings process is complete. The Company primarily records service sales as the items are repaired. The customer does not have a right to return merchandise unless defective or warranty related and there are no formal customer acceptance provisions. Sales returns and allowances were immaterial during each of the three years in the period ending September 30, 2013.

Product Warranties :
The Company warrants certain products against defects for periods ranging primarily from 12 to 48 months. The Company's estimated future warranty claims is included in "Accrued expenses" and are as follows:

		2013			2012			2011
Balance October 1		$	451		$	993		$	3,415
	Current year provisions		8,690			7,564			163
	Expenditures		(9,052	)		(8,106	)		(2,585	)
Balance September 30		$	89		$	451		$	993

Product Development Costs :
Product development costs, which include engineering production support, are expensed as incurred. Research and development performed for customers represents no more than 1% of sales in each year. The arrangements do not include a repayment obligation by the Company.

Cash and Cash Equivalents :
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. From time to time the Company maintains cash balances in excess of the FDIC limits. The cash balance at September 30, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $938,852 and $258,798, respectively.

Accounts Receivable :
The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

Inventories :
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of:

	2013		2012
Raw materials and component parts	$	852,229	$	1,061,957
Work-in-process		590,687		451,733
Finished products		146,900		221,080
	$	1,589,816	$	1,734,770

Property, Plant and Equipment :
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Additions and betterments are capitalized. The depreciation policy of the Company is generally as follows:

Class	Method	Estimated Useful Lives (in years)
Buildings	Straight-line	10	to	40
Machinery and equipment	Straight-line	3	to	10
Tools and dies	Straight-line		3

 
Depreciation amounted to $64,186 (2013), $86,257 (2012), and $108,924 (2011).

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets :
Long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment and software are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the asset.

Shipping and Handling Costs :
Shipping and handling costs are classified as cost of product sold.

Advertising Costs :
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $6,558 (2013), $6,940 (2012) and $16,756 (2011).

Income Taxes :
The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus any change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

Income per Common Share :
Income per common share information is computed on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period as disclosed in Note 10.

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. This agreement is not currently expected to be extended or renewed. 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 current fiscal year 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. 

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 current fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, $45,500 was expensed as non-cash interest expense. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for the fiscal year ended September 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.

The Company recorded interest expense of $75 through September 30, 2013. As of September 30, 2013 no interest was paid. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under this loan facility at September 30, 2013. Selected details of short-term borrowings for fiscal 2013 and long-term borrowings for fiscal 2012 are as follows:

	Amount		Weighted Average Interest Rate
Balance at September 30, 2013	$	-		.24%

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 and 881,985 shares in 2013 and 2012 respectively) 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 (see note 4, 5 and 7). The Class A shares have one vote per share and the Class B shares have three votes per share, except under certain circumstances such as voting on voluntary liquidation, sale of substantially all the assets, etc. Dividends up to $.10 per year, noncumulative, must be paid on Class A shares before any dividends are paid on Class B shares.

The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus any change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Income per common share information is computed on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period as disclosed in Note 10.

7. 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 September 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 September 30, 2013.

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 over a three year period to members of the Board of Directors who were not employees of the Company, at the fair market value on the date of grant. The options are exercisable for up to 10 years. All options granted under the Directors Plans become fully exercisable on March 8, 2015.

Non-cash compensation expense related to stock option plans for fiscal years ended September 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $6,465, $11,388 and $12,615 respectively.

Transactions involving the plan are summarized as follows:

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 fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, $6,465 and $11,388 respectively was expensed as share-based compensation. Total compensation costs related to nonvested awards not yet recognized is $2,837 (2014) and $543 (2015). The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the option pricing model for 2013 and 2012: a risk free interest rate of 5.0% and 5.0%; 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 .87.

The Company did not incur any material impact to its financial condition or results of operations due to the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

The Company is subject to U.S federal jurisdiction income tax examinations for the tax years 2009 through 2011. In addition, the Company is subject to state and local income tax examinations for the tax years 2009 through 2011.

The Company has available a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $5,345,000 and a contribution carryforward of approximately $26,000. The net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards will begin to expire in fiscal 2016.

Management has recorded a valuation allowance on the entire balance of deferred tax assets due to the continued losses during the past several years, the current economic uncertainties, the negative effects of the current economic crisis on all the Company's markets and concern that a more likely than not expiration of the Company's net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards could occur before they can be used.

The Company's ability to realize the entire benefit of its deferred tax assets requires that the Company achieve certain future earning levels prior to the expiration of its net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards. Because of the uncertainties involved with this significant estimate, it is reasonably possible that the Company's estimate may change in the near term.

Going Concern [Abstract]

Going Concern [Text Block]

15. 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 resulting lower sales levels have impacted the Company's accounts receivable and cash balances, if this situation continues it may prevent the Company from generating sufficient cash flow to sustain its operations.

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.

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. These facilities are available through December 2013. The revolving line of credit is not currently expected to be extended or renewed but the convertible loan agreement may be renewed or extended through December 30, 2014.

Management’s strategic plan to increase revenues and profitability through increased sales of existing products, the introduction of new products to the market place and the cash generated from the completion of the large order from a Tier 1 Supplier during the current fiscal year should provide the Company with the needed working capital for the next twelve months.
