LANDAUER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

December 31, 2015

(Dollars in thousands)

(1)Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

As used herein, the terms “Company,” “Landauer,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer collectively to Landauer, Inc. and its subsidiaries through which its various businesses are conducted.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but is considered to have significant influence, are accounted for on the equity method.

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. 

We believe that we have included all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period.  Operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2016. 

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 (the “Form 10-K”) and other financial information filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  The September 30, 2015 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the Form 10-K, and there have been no changes to the accounting policies for the three-month period ended December 31, 2015.

(2)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)  issued new guidance for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance.  In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year.  Public companies would now be required to adopt the new guidance for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017.  The FASB decided to allow earlier adoption of the new revenue standard, but not earlier than the original effective date.  This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

8

In June 2014, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for share-based payments requiring a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards when that performance target may be achieved after the requisite service period for the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period for which the requisite service has already been rendered. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. This guidance retains the current accounting for classifying and measuring investments in debt securities and loans, but requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with subsequent changes recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or requiring consolidation. The guidance also changes the accounting for investments without a readily determinable fair value and that do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value. A policy election can be made for these investments whereby estimated fair value may be measured at cost and adjusted in subsequent periods for any impairment or changes in observable prices of identical or similar investments. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal year had, or is expected to have, a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

(3)Fair Value Measurements

The Company estimatesthe fair value of assets and liabilities in accordance with the framework established by the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements.   The framework is based on the inputs used in valuation, gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and requires that observable inputs be used in the valuations when available. The disclosure of fair value estimates in the fair value accounting guidance hierarchy is based on whether the significant inputs into the valuation are observable. In determining the level of the hierarchy in which the estimate is disclosed, the highest priority is given to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s significant market assumptions. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is reported is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety.

The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

· Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets orliabilitiesthat the Company has the ability to access as of the reporting date. 

· Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liabilityor indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. 

· Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value thatreflectthe Company’sown assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

	Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2015
(Dollars in Thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Asset Category
Cash equivalents	$	240	$	-	$	-
Mutual funds		4,009		-		-
Available-for-sale securities		-		1,935		-
Total financial assets at fair value	$	4,249	$	1,935	$	-
	Fair Value Measurements at September 30, 2015
(Dollars in Thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Asset Category
Cash equivalents	$	272	$	-	$	-
Mutual funds		3,237		-		-
Available-for-sale securities		-		1,763		-
Total financial assets at fair value	$	3,509	$	1,763	$	-

Following is a description of each category in the fair value hierarchy and the financial assets and liabilities of the Company that were included in each category at December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015, measured on a recurring basis.

The Level 1 financial assets were comprised of investments in trading securities, which are reported in other long-term assets.  The investments are held in a Rabbi trust for benefits under the Company’s deferred compensation plan.  Under the plan, participants designate investment options to serve as the basis for measurement of the notional value of their accounts.  The investments include a money market fund and mutual funds that are publicly traded.  The fair values of the shares or underlying securities of these funds are based on quoted market prices.

The Level 2 financial assets are long-term investments consisting primarily of fixed income mutual funds, classified as available-for-sale securities.  These investments are reported in other long-term assets.  The investments in fixed income mutual funds are valued based on the net asset value of the underlying securities as provided by the investment account manager.  The investments are not restricted or subject to a lockup and may be redeemed on demand.  Notice within a certain period of time prior to redemption is not required.

The Company’s long-term debt is classified as Level 2.  The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt approximated fair value as the stated interest rates were variable in relation to prevailing market rates.

The Company recorded a liability for contingent consideration during the second quarter of fiscal 2014 related to the acquisition of ilumark GmbH and the launch of its new medical products.  The liability was recorded at fair value, which was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on assumptions and projections relevant to revenues.  A discount rate of 11% was used and payments are projected to occur in fiscal 2016 and 2017.  The contingent consideration liability is classified as Level 3.

The Company had no material assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the threemonths ended December 31, 2015 or fiscal year ended September 30, 2015.There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during these periods.

(4)Income per Common Share

Basic net income per share was computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income per share was computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock that would have been outstanding assuming dilution from stock-based compensation awards during the period.

The following table sets forth the computation of net income per share:

	Three Months EndedDecember 31,

Net income per share - Diluted	$	0.38	$	0.46
Dividends paid per share	$	0.275	$	0.55

On December 4, 2015, the Company declared a regular quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.275 per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The dividends were paid on January 5, 2016 to shareholders of record as of December 18, 2015.

(5)Employee Benefit Plans

The components of net periodic benefit cost for pension and other benefits were as follows:

The Company, under the IRS minimum funding standards, has no required contributions to make to its defined benefit pension plan during fiscal 2016.

The Company sponsors a 401(k) retirement savings plan covering substantially all of the U.S. full-time employeesin the Company’s Radiation Measurement segment as well as substantially all of the employees in the Company’s Medical Physics and Medical Products segments, which may provide for employer matching contributions.  The Company also maintains a supplemental defined contribution plan for certain executives, which allows participating executives to make voluntary deferrals and provides for employer contributions at the discretion of the Company.  Amounts expensed for Company contributions under these plans during the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were $419 and $407, respectively.

The Company has a minority interest in Yamasato, Fujiwara, Higa & Associates, Inc. doing business as Aquila.  The Company provides dosimetry parts to Aquila for its military contract.  The Company also has a 50% equity interest in Nagase-Landauer, Ltd. (“Nagase”), a radiation measurement company in Japan. 

In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the interim periods ended March 31, 2015, the Company identified an error in its previously issued financial statements for the interim period ended December 31, 2014. The Company did not properly report sales to related parties in its Related Party Transactions footnote. As a result of this error, the Company understated sales to Nagase by $616 as previously reported for the three months ended December 31, 2014. In accordance with accounting guidance presented in SAB 99, management assessed the materiality of this error and concluded that it was not material to the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2014.

The sales to and purchases from Aquila were as follows for the periods ended:

	Three Months EndedDecember 31,
(Dollars in Thousands)	2015		2014

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto. The following discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. For additional information regarding forward-looking statements and risk factors, see “Forward-Looking Statements” herein and Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015.

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations, and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  The Company bases its estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience and other relevant factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In any given reporting period, the Company’s actual results may differ from the estimates, judgments and assumptions used in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2015 and the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014

Revenues for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 were $36.5 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 2.7%, compared torevenues of $37.5 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.   Revenues in the Radiation Measurement segment decreased $1.8 million, which was primarily due to the Radon business that was divested in September 2015, resulting in a $1.6 million reduction in revenues.  In addition, unfavorable foreign currency translation rates reduced revenues by $1.2 million.  Domestic radiation Measurement services revenues increased 2.8%, partially offsetting the impact of the Radon business divestiture and the foreign currency rates.  Revenues in the Medical Physics segment increased $0.9 million, due to increased imaging services.  Revenues in the Medical Products segment were essentially flat.

Gross margin was 50.7% for the firstfiscal quarter of 2016, compared with 52.8% for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  Gross margin in the Radiation Measurement segment decreased for the first fiscal quarter of 2016as compared to the first fiscal quarter of 2015 due to the mix of lower margin product sales.  Gross margin in the Medical Physics segment decreased for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 as compared to the first fiscal quarter of 2015due to an increase in staffing expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 were $12.3 million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 10.2%, compared with $13.7 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  Operating expenses inCorporate and the Radiation Measurement segment decreased $1.2 million primarily due to the Radon divestiture, the impact of foreign currency rates and lower personnel costs. 

Operating income for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 was $6.2 million, compared with operating income of $6.1 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in our Radiation Measurement segment offset the impact of the lower revenues due to the Radon divestiture. 

17

Equity in income of joint ventures for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 was $0.3 million compared with $0.7 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  Product sales by our joint venture were impacted by the lower military sales.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were 30.9% and 26.2%, respectively.  The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the mix of earnings between jurisdictions with differing tax rates.

Net income attributed to Landauer for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 was $3.6 million, compared with net income of $4.4 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  The decrease in net income was driven by the divestiture of our Radon business during September 2015, resulting in a $0.4 million decrease in net income.  In addition, the higher effective tax rate impacted net income by approximately $0.3 million.

Radiation Measurement Segment

Radiation Measurement revenues for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 were $24.7 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 6.8%, compared with $26.5 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  The decrease in revenues was primarily due to theRadon business that was divested in September 2015, resulting in a $1.6 million reduction in revenues. 

Operating income for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 was $8.9 million compared with operating income of $9.4 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.The decrease was primarily due to the loss of operating income from the divested Radon business, whichwas approximately $0.6 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.

Medical Physics Segment

Medical Physics revenues for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 were $9.4 million, an increase of $0.9 million, or 10.6%, compared with $8.5 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  Imaging services revenue increased by $0.6 million, or 26%, driven by higher demand for the Company’s solutions for The Joint Commission’s new Diagnostic Imaging requirements that became effective for hospitals and ambulatory care centers on July 1, 2015. 

Operating income for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 was $0.8 million, compared to $0.6 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  The increase in operating income was primarily due to the margin on the increased sales.

Medical Products Segment

Medical Products revenues were essentially flat at  $2.5 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2016compared with $2.6 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015. 

Medical Products had operating income of $0.5 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 versus operating income of $0.3 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015. 

Corporate Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 were $3.9 million, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 7.1%, compared to $4.2 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  The decrease was due to lower professional fees, including audit and legal fees.

18

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s principal source of liquidity is operating cash flows supplemented by borrowings under its credit facility.  The Company’s cash-generating capability is one of its fundamental strengths and provides it with substantial financial flexibility in meeting operating and investing needs.

The following table sets forth a summary of the Company’s cash flows:

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(Dollars in Thousands)	2015		2014
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	5,941	$	9,484
Investing activities		(2,929)		(1,699)
Financing activities		(8,507)		(5,678)
Effect of foreign currency translation		(279)		(471)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(5,774)	$	1,636

Cash provided by operating activities for the first three months of fiscal 2016 was $5.9 million, a decrease of $3.5 million over the same fiscal period in 2015.  The decrease was primarily due tothe large reduction in accounts receivable, net in the first fiscal quarter of 2015  ($5.0 million) compared to a relatively small reduction in the first fiscal quarter of 2016 ($0.2 million).

Cash used in investing activities for the first three months of fiscal 2016 was $2.9 million, anincrease of $1.2 million over the same fiscal period of 2015.  During the first fiscal quarter of 2016, the Company paid $0.5 million in transaction expenses related to the September 2015 divestiture of our Radon business.

Cash used in financing activities for the first three months of fiscal 2016 was $8.5 million, an increase of $2.8 million over the same fiscal period of 2015.  The increase was primarily due to higher net repayments of debt, partially offset by a reduction in dividend payments to stockholders compared to the first fiscal quarter of 2015.  As of December 31, 2015, the Company had $47.3 million of unused availability under its current $175.0 million credit facility, which the Company believes provides adequate liquidity to meet its current and anticipated obligations.  During the first three months of fiscal 2016 and 2015, the Company paid cash dividends of $2.6 million and $5.3 million, respectively.  The Company reduced its dividend payment from $0.55 per share to $0.275 per share during the third fiscal quarter of 2015.

The Company expects to meet short-term liquidity requirements (including capital expenditures) through net cash from operating activities and cash on hand.The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2015.  The Company intends to use excess cash to continue to pay down the long-term debt balance.  The debt facility expires August 2, 2018.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of December 31, 2015, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of the previously reported material weaknesses that existed in our internal control over financial reporting described below. 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In prior filings, weidentified and reported material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which still exist as of December 31, 2015, due to continued remediation and testing procedures.  In response to the identified material weaknesses, our management, with oversight from our audit committee, has dedicated significant resources to improve our control environment and to remedy the identified material weaknesses. 

We believe that we have designed and implemented the appropriate controls to fully remediate the remaining material weaknesses.  However, the Company is required to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new processes for a sufficient period of time.  Therefore, until the actions set forth below, including the efforts to implement and test the necessary control activities we identify, are fully completed, the following material weaknesses will continue to exist.

Control Environment - We did not maintain an effective control environment as we did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge of accounting, experience and training commensurate with our financial reporting requirements.  Additionally, we did not consistently establish appropriate authorities and responsibilities in pursuit of our financial reporting objectives.  These material weaknesses contributed to the following control deficiencies, each of which is considered to be a material weakness:

· IT general controls and segregation of duties: We did not design and maintain processes and procedures that restrict access to key financial systems and records to appropriate users and evaluate whether appropriate segregation of duties is maintained.  Specifically, certain personnel had access to financial application, programs and data beyond that needed to perform their individual job responsibilities without independent monitoring.  With the IT general controls environment ineffective, manual reviews of the completeness and accuracy of reports supporting transaction processing (and, correspondingly, supporting the controls over transaction processing) are not sufficiently designed and implemented. 

21

Remediation Activities:We have improved our IT general controls and segregation of duties.  We have adopted a new global IT general controls framework, and have implemented this new framework domestically.  We have begun to implement this new framework in our European entities.  In addition, we have removed access to financial application programs and data beyond that needed for certain personnel to perform their individual job responsibilities.

Risk Assessment - We did not design and implement effective risk assessment with regard to our processes and procedures commensurate with our financial reporting requirements.  Specifically, we did not design and implement controls in response to risks of misstatement of the financial statements.  This material weakness contributed to the following control deficiencies, each of which is considered to be a material weakness:

· Revenue:  We did not maintain controls that were adequately designed, documented and executed to support the accurate and timely reporting of revenue and the related receivables.  Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective controls to evaluate whether revenue was recognized in accordance with agreed-upon terms and conditions, including customer order entry, pricing, customer acceptance provisions, and recorded in the proper period. 

Remediation Activities:We have improved our controls to ensure the accurate and timely reporting of revenue and the related receivables, including the following:

· Implemented procedures to identify and evaluate customer contracts with nonstandard terms;

· Implemented quarterly processes to ensure the proper cut-off of revenue recognition;

· Implemented standard terms and conditions;

· Designed and implemented pricing compliance templates for custom quotes and new customers;

· Enhanced procedures to comply with pricing pursuant to group purchasing organization contracts;

· Established a methodology and process to estimate a reserve for credit memos; and

· Enhanced calculations to improve the accuracy of deferred revenue estimates.

We commenced a formal risk assessment during fiscal 2015 to assess risks and identify, design, implement, and re-evaluate our control activities and completed the risk assessment as of September 30, 2015.

The risk assessment and revenue material weaknesses also resulted in revisions to second and third quarter fiscal 2014, annual fiscal 2014 and first quarter fiscal 2015 financial statement disclosures related to sales to its equity investees. Management has determined that these revisions, first disclosed in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, are additional effects of the material weaknesses related to risk assessment and revenue described above.

Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis Of Presentation And Consolidation [Abstract]

Basis Of Presentation And Consolidation

(1)Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

As used herein, the terms “Company,” “Landauer,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer collectively to Landauer, Inc. and its subsidiaries through which its various businesses are conducted.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but is considered to have significant influence, are accounted for on the equity method.

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. 

We believe that we have included all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period.  Operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2016. 

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 (the “Form 10-K”) and other financial information filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  The September 30, 2015 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the Form 10-K, and there have been no changes to the accounting policies for the three-month period ended December 31, 2015.

(2)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)  issued new guidance for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance.  In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year.  Public companies would now be required to adopt the new guidance for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017.  The FASB decided to allow earlier adoption of the new revenue standard, but not earlier than the original effective date.  This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

In June 2014, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for share-based payments requiring a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards when that performance target may be achieved after the requisite service period for the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period for which the requisite service has already been rendered. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition and measurement of financial instruments.  This guidance retains the current accounting for classifying and measuring investments in debt securities and loans, but requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with subsequent changes recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or requiring consolidation. The guidance also changes the accounting for investments without a readily determinable fair value and that do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value. A policy election can be made for these investments whereby estimated fair value may be measured at cost and adjusted in subsequent periods for any impairment or changes in observable prices of identical or similar investments. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal year had, or is expected to have, a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

(3)Fair Value Measurements

The Company estimatesthe fair value of assets and liabilities in accordance with the framework established by the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements.   The framework is based on the inputs used in valuation, gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and requires that observable inputs be used in the valuations when available. The disclosure of fair value estimates in the fair value accounting guidance hierarchy is based on whether the significant inputs into the valuation are observable. In determining the level of the hierarchy in which the estimate is disclosed, the highest priority is given to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s significant market assumptions. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is reported is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety.

The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

· Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilitiesthat the Company has the ability to access as of the reporting date. 

· Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. 

· Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value thatreflectthe Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

	Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2015

Total financial assets at fair value	$	3,509	$	1,763	$	-

Following is a description of each category in the fair value hierarchy and the financial assets and liabilities of the Company that were included in each category at December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015, measured on a recurring basis.

The Level 1 financial assets were comprised of investments in trading securities, which are reported in other long-term assets.  The investments are held in a Rabbi trust for benefits under the Company’s deferred compensation plan.  Under the plan, participants designate investment options to serve as the basis for measurement of the notional value of their accounts.  The investments include a money market fund and mutual funds that are publicly traded.  The fair values of the shares or underlying securities of these funds are based on quoted market prices.

The Level 2 financial assets are long-term investments consisting primarily of fixed income mutual funds, classified as available-for-sale securities.  These investments are reported in other long-term assets.  The investments in fixed income mutual funds are valued based on the net asset value of the underlying securities as provided by the investment account manager.  The investments are not restricted or subject to a lockup and may be redeemed on demand.  Notice within a certain period of time prior to redemption is not required.

The Company’s long-term debt is classified as Level 2.  The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt approximated fair value as the stated interest rates were variable in relation to prevailing market rates.

The Company recorded a liability for contingent consideration during the second quarter of fiscal 2014 related to the acquisition of ilumark GmbH and the launch of its new medical products.  The liability was recorded at fair value, which was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on assumptions and projections relevant to revenues.  A discount rate of 11% was used and payments are projected to occur in fiscal 2016 and 2017.  The contingent consideration liability is classified as Level 3.

The Company had no material assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the three months ended December 31, 2015 or fiscal year ended September 30, 2015.  There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during these periods.

(4)Income per Common Share

Basic net income per share was computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income per share was computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock that would have been outstanding assuming dilution from stock-based compensation awards during the period.

The following table sets forth the computation of net income per share:

(“Nagase”), a radiation measurement company in Japan. 

In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the interim periods ended March 31, 2015, the Company identified an error in its previously issued financial statements for the interim period ended December 31, 2014. The Company did not properly report sales to related parties in its Related Party Transactions footnote. As a result of this error, the Company understated sales to Nagase by $616 as previously reported for the three months ended December 31, 2014. In accordance with accounting guidance presented in SAB 99, management assessed the materiality of this error and concluded that it was not material to the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2014.

The sales to and purchases from Aquila were as follows for the periods ended:

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(Dollars in Thousands)	2015		2014
