See accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. 6 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE A - BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Business Electric & Gas Technology, Inc.("the Company" or "ELGT") was organized as a corporation under the laws of the State of Texas on March 18, 1985, to serve as a holding company for operating subsidiary corporations. The Company continued in this manner until 2004, at which time the decision was made for the corporate entity to become more actively involved in the management of subsidiary operations. The ultimate objective of this change is a more coordinated use of management expertise, technical resources and operating capabilities that support a strategy of long term growth in shareholder value. Near the end of fiscal 2004, the Company relocated all operations, including corporate staff, into a single 144,000 square foot facility, which was occupied by the contract manufacturing segment. In addition to achieving improvements in communications and utilization of resources, this also allowed the Company to proceed with the listing of two commercial properties for sale. The Company presently is the owner of 100% of Reynolds Equipment, Inc. (Reynolds) and 98.1% of Logic Metals Technology, Inc. (LMT). Through these subsidiaries, the Company operates in two distinct business segments: (1) Utilities Products and (2) Contract Manufacturing. Reynolds, operating in the Utilities Products segment, designs, manufactures and markets products for natural gas measurement, metering and odorization primarily for municipalities and publicly owned utility companies. Materials consist of proprietary circuit boards utilizing industry standard components, probes and hardware. The manufacturability of the boards is readily available through a large number of local low cost circuit board assembly operations. All other items are available through multiple vending sources. The products are primarily marketed directly by Reynolds employees and, to a lesser degree, through manufacturers' representatives. LMT, operating in the Contract Manufacturing segment, provides precision sheet metal fabrication and assembly for a diverse customer base, including telecom and networking cabinetry, electrical controls and other functional and aesthetic sheet metal applications. LMT has primarily grown the revenue from existing customers, but has added a manufacturers' representative to expand the customer base. Raw material generally consists of standard sheet metal and general purpose fittings and connectors available from general hardware and steel distributors. Currently, LMT has one customer that represents approximately 30% of the Company's total revenue for the 6 months ended January 31, 2006. The Company has employed a strategy to merge operational functions wherever possible with the short term objective of operating a single manufacturing group serving both owned proprietary products and external customers through a common organization. Consolidation of the organizations has been completed and migration of the manufacturing systems into one common system is an ongoing effort. Interim Financial Statements The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for inclusion in the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-QSB. The 7 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE A - BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION ( continued) accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim periods. The statements were prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As permitted by the SEC, the statements depart from generally accepted accounting disclosure principles in that certain data is combined, condensed or summarized that would otherwise be reported separately. NOTE B - EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted earnings per share amounts take into consideration all potentially dilutive common shares such as options and convertible securities. For basic earnings per share purposes, for the six months ended January 31, 2006 and 2005, weighted average common stock shares outstanding totaled 7,399,588 and 6,997,034, respectively. For diluted earnings per share purposes, for the six months ended January 31, 2006, weighted average common stock shares outstanding totaled 7,595,457 and included shares relating to the assumed exercise of stock warrants. NOTE C - INVENTORIES Inventories are comprised as follows: January 31, 2006 July 31, 2005 ---------------- ---------------- Raw materials $ 1,085,609 $ 527,134 Work in process 1,108,902 302,122 Finished goods 854,849 646,953 ---------------- ---------------- Total inventory $ 3,049,360 $ 1,476,209 ================ ================ Inventories, consisting of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or market as determined by the first-in, first-out method. The Company reviews inventory usage by line item at least annually, and accents material as potentially slow moving when usage for the prior 12 months is less than the current "on-hand" quantity. In subsequent review, alternative and substitute uses are identified, and the slow moving quantity is adjusted. The carrying value of excess inventory is adjusted for financial reporting purposes. Obsolete inventory is identified when a product will no longer be produced or supported by the Company. Customers are notified of final opportunity to purchase the product and spares, and the inventory is subsequently destroyed and/or sold as scrap. 8 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE D- NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS On October 4, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to borrow $125,000 bearing interest at 12%, maturing on April 4, 2006 from an individual third party accredited investor. The Company also issued 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock and 15,000 warrants to purchase common restricted shares of Form 144 stock for $1.50 per share. On November 7, 2005, the Company entered into two separate agreements to borrow $50,000 each, bearing interest at 12%, maturing on May 1, 2006 from two individual third party accredited investors. The Company also issued 5,000 shares of the Company's common stock for each agreement. NOTE E - IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE The Company reviews for impairment, long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any asset may not be recoverable. In the event of impairment, the asset is written down to its fair market value. Assets to be disposed of are recorded at the lower of net book value or fair market value less cost to sell, at the date management commits to a plan of disposal and are classified as assets held for sale. During 2005, the Company sold its former executive offices at 13636 Neutron Road, Dallas, Texas, a 7,800 sq. ft. one story building. The Company is holding for sale the former Reynolds occupied and owned building situated on 40,000 square feet of land in Garland, Texas. The plant is a one story, concrete building containing approximately 15,500 square feet of floor space, which includes approximately 2,000 feet of office space. The building has a remaining mortgage of $349,656 with a local bank. The Company has replacement value insurance on the building. As the building is being held for sale, it is not being depreciated. However, prior depreciation for federal income tax and financial reporting was previously over a 40 year period on the straight line method. In addition, the Company also has included in assets held for sale, an idle facility located in Paris, Texas. The total carrying value of the assets held for sale as of January 31, 2006 is the net book value of $408,053 and is included in long-term assets. Based on appraisals and independent comparative sales reports, the Company believes that the fair market value for these assets exceeds $400,000. The following is the carrying value of assets held for sale and the corresponding liabilities at January 31, 2006. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005, the Company transferred $125,000 of equity value, in the form of a secondary lien, in the real estate related to the Paris, Texas building to the Retech Pension Plan, as described in Note F. Carrying Current Long-term Total value liabilities liabilities Liabilities ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Paris building $ 322,110 $ 22,064 $ 258,151 $ 280,215 Garland building 86,540 16,422 333,234 349,656 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Total $ 408,650 $ 38,486 $ 591,385 $ 629,871 =========== =========== =========== =========== 9 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE F - CONTINGENCIES The sale of the Company's former subsidiary Superior Switchboard and Devices Inc. (Superior) was completed in 1996. Consideration received from this sale included a note receivable of approximately $1,250,000. The surviving business of Superior, renamed Retech, Inc., continued to own an 80,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Paris, Texas and continued to be responsible for the frozen Defined Benefit Pension Plan for Bargaining Employees (the "Plan") that covered all of its hourly employees. The Plan called for benefits to be paid to eligible employees at retirement based upon years of service and compensation rates near retirement. The maker defaulted on the $1.25 million note. The Company sued for collection and subsequently entered into a Settlement Agreement. Again the maker failed to perform under this Agreement and has caused the Company to pursue further recourse. During the six months ended January 31, 2006 the Company recorded and received the funds of a $170,000 settlement that was reached. Failure to collect on the note previously had, in part, impaired the Company's ability to meet minimum funding requirements as a portion of the proceeds would have been used by the Company to support the Plan. The entire note was written off by the Company during FY 2002 and no portion of it was ever booked as an asset of the Plan. The Plan began experiencing deficiencies when its asset values were diminished by poor stock market conditions and a steady decline in interest rates. Poor financial performance of the Company over consecutive years also contributed to the condition of the Plan. Since 2001, the Company has struggled to keep the Plan in line with minimum funding requirements. As the result of Retech's non-liquid status, it has been unable to currently fund the annual pension liability. The Company has recognized a minimum pension liability for the under-funded plan. The minimum liability is equal to the excess of the projected benefit obligation over plan assets. A corresponding amount is recognized as either an intangible asset or reduction of stockholders' equity. The Plan's pension liability as of July 31, 2005, the date of the last actuarial valuation, was $1,229,646, resulting in a stockholders' equity reduction of $1,229,646. The Company has accrued $40,000 for the current year, through the quarter ended January 31, 2006. Current management recognized the condition of the Plan and worked with the IRS to enter into a Closing Agreement executed April 15, 2005 that brought the plan into acceptable funding status. An important element to the Agreement was the transfer of equity of $125,000 in the Paris, TX building and 20 acres to the Plan as a contribution. The transfer of equity into the Plan had no material affect on the financial position of ELGT. The Company is committed to restoring the plan to full compliance. This is a stepwise process, focused first on the Closing Agreement and meeting current minimum funding requirement. Now that this step has been completed the Company will address other matters of compliance related to the Plan. Whereas the Company believes that it will be able to resolve these matters in a satisfactory manner, failure to do so could have a negative impact on the Company's future performance. 10

NOTE H - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The following is a summary of advances to and from affiliated companies included in other assets at January 31, 2006 and July 31, 2005:
January 31, 2006 July 31, 2005 ---------------- ---------------- Net Due To/From Affiliates - Interfederal Capital, Inc. $ 620,825 $ 664,533 ================ ================ Net Payable to Officers $ (18,741) $ (38,876) ================ ================
Interfederal Capital, Inc. (Interfederal), a Texas corporation, is managed under a voting trust by S. Mort Zimmerman and ownership is held by his wife and four (4) children. The Company leased facilities owned by Interfederal at a rate of $30,000 per month. 11 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE H - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (continued) Interfederal, S. Mort Zimmerman individually and/or Daniel A. Zimmerman individually have guaranteed certain of Company's lines of credit, real estate and equipment loans. S. Mort Zimmerman, IFC Industries, M&M Trans Exchange, Comtec, Inc. and Glauber Management have agreed to consolidate their balances into the account of Interfederal Capital, Inc. for the purpose of legal offset. The consolidated balance of $620,825 due to the Company from Interfederal Capital, Inc. is recoverable when, and if, it exercises its option to purchase the real estate it currently leases from Interfederal, as described in Capital Expenditures. The offset occurred during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005. The balance of $620,825 due from Interfederal is a payment by the Company toward the purchase of the facility it leases from Interfederal. Should the Company not be able to finance said purchase on or before the option expiration date, the amount of the offset due the Company will be recovered against lease payments due. The Company has a payable of $18,741 that is due to Daniel A. Zimmerman as of January 31, 2006, compared to a $38,876 payable due as of July 31, 2005. These amounts were used to fund various payables of the Company. The Company has pledged a certificate of deposit in the amount of $100,000 for a loan in the name of DOL Resources, Inc., a publicly held corporation in which Electric & Gas Technology, Inc. owns a 19.9% equity interest. The note is currently being serviced by Glauber Management, an affiliate of DOL, and the Company believes that Glauber has sufficient resources to continue servicing the debt. The carrying value on the balance sheet for DOL is $1 at January 31, 2006 and July 31, 2005.

NOTE L - INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for corporate income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. In addition, future tax benefits, such as those from net operating loss carry forwards, are recognized to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as set forth below in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company does not have any other significant deferred tax assets or liabilities. The net operating loss carry-forwards are available to offset future taxable income of the Company. These net operating losses expire from 2015 through 2018. 13 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION The Company, through its subsidiaries, operates within two industries. These are (i) the Utilities Products segment, in which the Company designs, manufactures and markets products for natural gas measurement, metering and odorization and (ii) the Contract Manufacturing segment, in which the Company provides metals fabrication and assembly for a diverse customer base, including telecom and networking cabinetry, electrical controls, and other functional and aesthetic fabricated metal applications. The Company has employed a strategy to merge operational functions wherever possible with the short term objective of operating a single manufacturing group serving both owned proprietary products and external customers through a common organization. Results of operations Summary. The Company reported revenues of $2,780,294 and $4,701,407 for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006, respectively. This compares to revenues of $2,463,714 and $4,610,915 for the same periods in 2005. The increase in revenue is primarily attributed to an increase in customer demand, especially in the Contract Manufacturing segment. Total other income (expense) of ($73,216) and $34,335 for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006, respectively, was reported by the Company. This compares to the total other expense of $76,128 and $127,249 for the same periods in 2005. The significant increase in the six months ended January 31, 2006 is due primarily to a gain on a settlement of a civil action during the first quarter of 2006. The Company reported a net income from continuing operations of $218,137 and $26,384 for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006, respectively. This compares to a net income from continuing operations of $90,381 and $105,555 for the same periods in 2005. The three month increase in income from continuing operations is due primarily to a concentration of higher gross margin revenues during the period. The decrease in income from continuing operations for the six months is due primarily to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the period. Gross margins for the Company increased from 30.01% and 30.18% for the three and six months ended January 31, 2005, respectively, to 42.99% and 32.16% for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006, respectively. Gross margins increased as the result of receiving orders with higher gross margin. Inventories have increased in raw materials, work in process and finished goods during the six months ended January 31, 2006. The increase in inventories is a result of a $2.5 million contract awarded to the Company on October 12, 2005. The significant increase was required to support the manufacturing of this contract. 14
ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues increased from 22.65% and 23.99% for the three and six months ended January 31, 2005, respectively to 31.92% and 32.04% for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006, respectively. The change for the six months is a result of an increase in expenses due to efforts to increase future sales and the issuance of stock to employees. The following table represents the changes [increase/(decrease)] in operating revenues, operating income/(loss) and income/(loss) from continuing operations by the respective industry segments when compared to the previous period: Three months ended Six months ended January 31, 2006 January 31, 2006 ------------------------ ------------------------ Increase/ Increase/ (Decrease) Percent (Decrease) Percent ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Operating revenue: ------------------ Utility Products $ 50,358 10.88% $ (24,737) (2.34%) Contract Manufacturing 266,222 13.30% 115,229 3.24% ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total sales $ 316,580 12.85% $ 90,492 1.96% ========== ========== ========== ========== Operating income (loss): ------------------------ Utility Products $ (84,286) NA $ (127,690) NA Contract Manufacturing 636,512 NA 238,706 NA ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Income from operations 552,226 NA 111,016 NA General corporate expenses (425,584) NA (391,356) NA Minority interest in subsidiary (1,797) NA 39,586 NA Other income, net 2,912 NA 161,584 NA ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Net income (loss) from continuing operations 127,756 NA (79,171) NA ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Discontinued operations, net of tax -- NA (39,372) NA ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Net income (loss) $ 127,756 NA $ (118,543) NA ========== ========== ========== ==========
Utilities Products - This segment reported an increase/(decrease) in revenue of $50,358 and ($24,737) with operating income being reduced by ($84,286) and ($127,690) for the three and six months ending January 31, 2006, respectively. The increase in revenue for the three months ended was the result of an increase in customer demand concentrated in the three months ended January 31, 2006. The decrease in operating profit is primarily due to increased engineering activities to develop new products. This segment acquired a product line that it has branded Co-Pilot (TM). This product is used in combination with the segment's other instrumentation to allow a gas utility operator to remotely monitor and control pressure and flow in a gas pipeline. It also commercialized one of its product research and development efforts, introducing a new gas odorization system branded Smart Drip (TM). 15 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Contract Manufacturing - In this segment, revenues increased $266,222 and $115,229 while operating profit increased by $636,511 and $238,708 for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006, respectively. These increases were due primarily to the additional revenue from the $2.5 million contract awarded to this segment, of which, $0.8 million in revenues was recognized during the three months ended January 31, 2006. On October 12, 2005, this segment was awarded a contract to manufacture and sell Election Supply Cabinets (ESC) for a fixed price of $2,470,000. These cabinets will be used in conjunction with new electronic voting systems recently purchased by a major U.S. metropolitan county elections authority. This segment has begun an initiative to enhance its sales effectiveness and broaden its range of services offered. It is exploring opportunities to develop or acquire proprietary products. Current facilities and capital equipment base will support substantial increases in business. Corporate overhead expenses increased by $425,584 and $391,356 for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006 (respectively), relative to the corresponding three and six month periods respectively in the prior year. This increase is primarily the result of stock issued to employees. Other income increased by $2,912 and $161,584 for the three and six months ended January 31, 2006 (respectively), relative to the same periods in the prior year. The net increase is due primarily to a gain on investment the Company recorded during the six months ended January 31, 2006. During the fiscal year ending July 31, 2005, the Company accepted 11,915,712 shares of Logic Metals Technology, Inc. common stock in satisfaction of debt at a rate of $0.13 per share. This increased the position of the Company from 80% to 98.1% ownership of Logic Metals Technology, Inc. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's current assets are $5,139,043 at January 31, 2006, as compared to $2,755,969 at July 31, 2005, which is an increase of $2,383,074. Current liabilities increased from July 31, 2005 to January 31, 2006 by $1,965,222, contributing to an increase in working capital (current assets less current liabilities) to ($59,104) at January 31, 2006 as compared to ($476,956) at July 31, 2005. This is primarily the result of a significant increase in inventories with minimal increase to current liabilities. During fiscal year ending 2005, the IRS approved the transfer of equity of $125,000 in the Paris, TX building and 20 acres to the Retech pension plan as a contribution. See Note F for additional information. The Company may seek additional private placement of its public equity. Management believes that, if required, it can attract investment capital of up to $2,000,000 based on the Company's business strategy. The amount of equity the Company would offer would depend in part on share/conversion price, discount or premium on current market share price and dilution prospects. While management believes that, if needed, the Company could obtain the above funding, there is no assurance that this would occur. Failure to do so could slow the growth of the Company. 16 ELECTRIC & GAS TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Capital Expenditures For fiscal 2006, the Company anticipates capital expenditures in the Contract Manufacturing segment as additional capacity is required to meet customer requirements. The Company has budgeted approximately $200,000 for these expenditures. The Company leases its primary facility from Interfederal.
