Mr. Hedrick continued, “This performance is a result of operational improvements across the board.  We reacted swiftly to the global economic decline and loss of 50% of our revenue, the result of an OEM customer bankruptcy.  Defense sector revenues were strengthened by the win of major C130 flight deck programs; expanding sales in the Large Area mission displays; Air Data for the P3 and F16.  The restructuring of the Engineering department has doubled efficiencies.  The Citation flight deck retrofit system was developed this year and has been installed at Cessna for FAA flight certification this week.  Our Flight Management System is in flight test development.  The Operations Department has seen similar performance improvements and has reduced inventories by 40%, while increasing production output.

 

We planned to maintain similar growth through the second half of fiscal 2009.  A 757/767 customer slowed their installation schedule to accommodate higher priority maintenance and aircraft modifications.  The reschedule reduced Q3 revenue by 20% and could have a similar impact on Q4. Our customer plans to accelerate modification rates by 2010, consuming the balance of fifty ship-sets already delivered and restoring our delivery schedule.  Several aircraft have been modified and are in revenue service.  There is no reduction in the program quantity.”

 

For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, net income was $4.4 million or $0.26 per diluted share compared to a net loss of ($15.5) million or ($0.92) per fully diluted share for the nine months ended June 30, 2008.  Net Sales were $28.8 million, up 42% over the nine months ended June 30, 2008 of $20.3 million and cash and cash equivalents increased $4.3 million.

 

Mr. Hedrick concluded, “This recent economic crisis and subsequent global slow-down has spared few.  We see a realignment of market demand with emphasis on maintaining and renovating existing equipment.  Our remarkable price/performance product offerings provide measurable value to all of the three market segments; Military, Air Transport and Business aviation.  Our systems facilitate an affordable, high performance upgrade, while offering real operating cost savings.  The recently introduced Vantage System, with its open architecture, enables us to offer a complete cockpit solution, including radios/navigation, to OEMs and reuse of existing systems in retrofit applications.  We expect demand to grow as operators seek the most cost effective solution to their operational and

 



 

lift requirements. Our improved efficiencies and high level of investment in new product development should position us strongly for future growth under difficult economic conditions.”

 

Business Outlook

 

For fiscal year 2009, based on existing backlog, current anticipated production schedules and improved operating efficiency, the Company expects net sales of  $35.0 - $37.0 million; earnings per share of $0.27 - $0.29 and positive operating cash flow.  This outlook represents a 15% increase in revenue over the prior fiscal year.
