These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic 2005 financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic 2005 financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ Crowe Chizek and Company LLC Crowe Chizek and Company LLC Oak Brook, Illinois June 8, 2006 1 LANDAUER, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 PLAN NUMBER 003, EIN 06-1218089 2005 2004 ---------- ---------- ASSETS INVESTMENTS, AT FAIR VALUE (NOTE D). . . . . $8,565,690 $8,009,381 RECEIVABLES Accrued income . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -- 16,694 Employer contributions . . . . . . . . . . -- 35 Participants' contributions. . . . . . . . -- 2,920 ---------- ---------- -- 19,649 ---------- ---------- NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS. . . . . . . $8,565,690 $8,029,030 ========== ========== The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 2 LANDAUER, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 PLAN NUMBER 003, EIN 06-1218089 ADDITIONS TO NET ASSETS Investment Income (Notes B & D): Net appreciation in fair value of investments. . . . . $ 181,723 Interest and dividends . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 350,790 ---------- Total investment income. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 532,513 Contributions: Employer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 126,298 Participant. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 651,416 Rollover . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16,549 ---------- Total contributions. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 794,263 ---------- Total Additions. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,326,776 ---------- DEDUCTIONS FROM NET ASSETS Payments to participants . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 787,791 Administrative expenses. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,325 ---------- Total Deductions . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 790,116 ---------- Net Increase . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 536,660 Net Assets Available for Benefits, Beginning of Year . . . 8,029,030 ---------- NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS, END OF YEAR . . . . . . $8,565,690 ========== The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 3 LANDAUER, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 PLAN NUMBER 003, EIN 06-1218089 A. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN The following description of the Landauer, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan provides general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. GENERAL The Plan is a defined contribution salary reduction plan covering all eligible employees of Landauer, Inc. (the "Company") who are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement and who are least 21 years of age and completed six months of service, as defined by the Plan. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company amended and restated the Plan by adopting the ADP non-standardized 401(k) profit sharing plan and trust. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended. CONTRIBUTIONS Each plan participant may make pretax contributions ranging from $50 to the limits set by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company matches $3 for each $1 of the first $50 of participant salary reduction contributions for the plan year, plus $0.20 for each $1 of the next $5,000 of salary reduction contributions for the plan year. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS Each participant's account is credited with the participant's salary reduction contribution, and allocations of (a) the Company's matching contribution and (b) account earnings. The participants have the option to invest at their discretion into any group of investments selected by the trustees. Currently these investments include Landauer, Inc. common stock, two Van Kampen Investment Funds, two Davis Investment Funds, three Morgan Stanley Investment Funds, Calvert Income Fund, two Oppenheimer Investment Funds, and AllianceBernstein International Growth Fund. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account. VESTING A participant is 100% vested at all times in his or her account that represents the salary reduction contributions and any rollover amount accepted by the Plan on his or her behalf. Additionally, a participant is 100% vested at all times in the employer match. PARTICIPANT LOANS Participants may borrow from $1,000 to $50,000, or fifty percent of their account balance, whichever is less. Any loan is secured by the balance in the participant's account and bears interest at 1% over the prime rate at the time the loan is requested. Loans are required to be repaid in five years or less. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions. 4 LANDAUER, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 PLAN NUMBER 003, EIN 06-1218089 PAYMENTS OF BENEFITS On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account, or equal or substantially equal annual installments payable over the participant's life expectancy. In-service withdrawals are allowed after a participant has reached 59-1/2 years of age. B. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The Plan's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION Plan assets are stated at market value, with related gains and/or losses (both realized and unrealized) being reflected as an increase or decrease in net assets available for benefits. Quoted market prices are used to value all investments other than participant loans and money market funds. Shares of mutual funds are valued at the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. Participant loans and money market funds are carried at cost which approximates fair value. Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to use estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The Plan provides for various investment options in mutual funds, stocks, and other investment securities. The underlying investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and participants' individual account balances. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, approximately 22% of the Plan's net assets were invested in Company common stock through the Landauer Stock Fund. 5 LANDAUER, INC. 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004 PLAN NUMBER 003, EIN 06-1218089 BENEFIT PAYMENTS Benefit payments are recorded when paid. C. PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS Parties-in-interest are defined under Department of Labor regulations as any fiduciary of the Plan, any party rendering service to the Plan, the employer, and certain others. The Plan allows participants to invest their account balances in shares of certain mutual funds managed by Morgan Stanley, the Plan's investment advisor, and a money market fund managed by State Street Bank and Trust, the Trustee of the Plan. The value of these investments at December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $1,274,206 and $1,568,908, respectively. ADP provides recordkeeping and other administrative services. Fees paid by the Plan to the trustee and recordkeeper totaled $2,325 for the year ended December 31, 2005. The Plan also allows participants to invest their account balances in shares of Landauer, Inc. common stock through the Landauer Stock Fund. The number of shares of Landauer, Inc. common stock held by the Plan at December 31, 2005 and 2004 was 38,795 shares and 39,127 shares, respectively. The value of these shares at December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $1,788,062 and $1,788,104, respectively. Dividends of $47,280 were paid on these shares for the year ended December 31, 2005. The Plan also allows participants to take loans from their accounts in the Plan. These investments also qualify as party-in-interest and totaled $218,078 and $206,670 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. D.

INCOME TAX STATUS The Internal Revenue Service issued a determination letter dated May 3, 2002, stating that the Plan was designed in accordance with applicable Internal Revenue Code requirements as of that date. The Plan has been amended since receipt of the determination letter, however, the plan administrator believes that the Plan continues to be a qualified plan and the related trust is exempt from income taxes as of the financial statement dates. F. PLAN TERMINATION Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions set forth in ERISA. G. PLAN AMENDMENT Effective in 2005, the Plan was amended to reduce the balance, for which the Plan Administrator will mandatorily cash out a participant's account if the participant does not elect to have such distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution directly, to $1,000.
