Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Simula, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively “we” and “our”). All of the subsidiaries are wholly owned. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

     As permitted by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting, we have prepared the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. As permitted by these rules, certain information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements are condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications considered necessary for a fair and comparable presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003. Such interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2002 Form 10-K.

Note 2 — Recently Issued Accounting Standards

     In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 149, “Amendment of Statement No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, which amended and refined certain characteristics of derivative instruments and hedges. The application of SFAS No. 149 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

     In May 2003, the FASB issued a SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity”, which requires the classification of certain financial instruments, previously classified within the equity section of the balance sheet, to be included in liabilities. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and June 15, 2003 for all other instruments. The application of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements

     In April 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, amendment of FASB Statement No.13, and Technical Corrections”, which, among other things, no longer allows for the classification of gains and losses from extinguishment of debt as extraordinary. We adopted SFAS No. 145 effective January 1, 2003 and upon adoption, gains and losses on certain future debt extinguishment, if any, will be recorded in pre-tax income. In addition any previously recorded extraordinary gains or losses from early extinguishment of debt will be reclassified to income before extraordinary income or loss to conform to the requirements under SFAS 145.

     In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities. SFAS No. 146 also nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)”. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. We adopted SFAS No. 146 effective January 1, 2003 and do not anticipate that the new standard will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

     In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure”. This Statement amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. We adopted the new disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148 in 2002. We continue to account for stock-based compensation under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related Interpretations.

     In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” The interpretation requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee and expands the disclosures required. Initial recognition and measurement provisions of FIN No. 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees

issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The adoption of FIN No. 45 had no effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities – an Interpretation of ARB No. 51.” FIN No. 46 clarifies the consolidation requirements of variable interest entities. We have adopted the interpretation. We have no interests in any variable interest entities and, consequently, adoption of FIN No. 46 had no effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 3 – Earnings per share

     The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted per share computations. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 the effect of 142,212 and 190,936 shares related to stock options were not used in determining dilutive earnings per share because the result would have been anti-dilutive, respectively. Additionally, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the effect of 1,774,074 shares to be issued upon conversion of the 8% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes was not used in determining dilutive earnings per share because the result would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 4 – Stock Based Compensation

     We have three stock-based employee compensation plans. We account for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”,and related Interpretations under which no compensation cost has been recognized. However, we have computed compensation cost, for pro forma disclosure purposes, based on the fair value of all options awarded on the date of grant, utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing method. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”,to stock-based employee compensation for the three month and six month periods ended June 30:

Note 10 — Restructuring

     In December 1999, we adopted a plan of restructuring that included the divestiture of our commercial airline seat manufacturing operation. In July 2002, we adopted a plan of restructuring focused on reducing workforce to align with a newly developed strategic focus and in January 2003, we adopted a plan to restructure our Aerospace and Defense business by reducing workforce and closing our Asheville facility and consolidating those operations into our Phoenix facility. The Asheville facility was closed and all operations were moved to the Phoenix location as of March 31, 2003. We completed the sale of the Asheville facility on April 8, 2003 and retired the mortgage note payable related to that facility. At June 30, 2003, there was $1,133,984 of remaining restructuring liability, which principally relates to lease obligations associated with the closed airline facility and other contracts as a part of the 1999 restructuring and severance obligations as part of the 2002 and 2003 restructuring. A summary of the change in accrued restructuring is as follows:

Note 11 – Derivative Instruments

     As of June 30, 2003, we have certain receivables and payables denominated in Euros, however those receivables and payables denominated in Euros we sold as part of the transaction completed on July 22, 2003 related to our commercial automotive business (see Note 12). To eliminate our exposure to changes in the U.S. dollar/Euro exchange rate, we periodically enter into forward contracts to protect our future cash flows. Our forward contracts generally range from one to three months in original maturity. As of June 30, 2003, we have no outstanding contracts.

     In accordance with SFAS No. 133, we designate such forward contracts as cash flow hedges. We account for changes in the fair value of our forward contracts, based on changes in the forward exchange rate, with all such changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income. Amounts in other comprehensive income are reclassified into earnings upon settlement of the forward contract at an amount that will offset the related transaction gain or loss arising from the re-measurement and adjust earnings for the cost of the forward contracts. As of June 30, 2003, there were no significant gains or losses recognized in earnings for hedge ineffectiveness and we did not discontinue any hedges because it was probable that the original forecasted transaction would not occur.

Note 12 – Subsequent Events

     On July 22, 2003, we completed the sale of all the assets of our Automotive Safety division to Zodiac, S.A. at a selling price of $14.3 million in cash. Customary closing and purchase price adjustments are expected to be completed within 45 days of the sale closing. After deducting closing costs and purchase price adjustments, we received net proceeds of approximately $11.0 million. Currently included in the closing costs is approximately $1.0 million related to two separate escrow accounts, from which we can potentially recover a maximum $0.5 million within three months and a maximum of $0.5 million in 18 months. The transaction resulted in a gain on sale of discontinued operations of approximately $0.1 million before any recovery of amounts deposited in escrows previously discussed. We applied the net proceeds to repay a portion of our outstanding debt.

     On July 23, 2003 we announced that we signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to be acquired by Armor Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:AH) of Jacksonville, Florida. The LOI states that Armor Holdings shall acquire all outstanding common stock of Simula, retire outstanding indebtedness, and assume all liabilities of Simula for total consideration of $110.5 million. Consideration to Simula’s shareholders will, at Armor Holdings’ discretion, consist of cash or a combination of cash and registered shares of Armor Holdings’ common stock, with at least 20% of the value of the payment to shareholders to be in cash. The transaction is structured as a merger and is expected to be taxable to Simula’s shareholders.

     The LOI calls for an exclusive negotiation period through August 29, 2003, during which the companies will endeavor to complete all necessary activities leading to the execution of a definitive merger agreement. The LOI provides for a good faith deposit by Armor Holdings, expedited due diligence and payment of a break-up fee if Simula accepts a competing offer. The transaction is subject to, among other things, satisfactory due diligence, the execution of a definitive agreement, regulatory approvals including satisfaction of the requirements and waiting period related to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act, requisite approvals by each company’s Board of Directors, and the approval of our shareholders. Upon completion of the definitive agreement, we anticipate submission of a proxy and registration statement to shareholders for approval of the transaction and a closing on or about November 15, 2003. The Board of Directors of both Simula and Armor Holdings have approved the proposed transaction as defined in the LOI.

Note 13 – Segment Reporting

     We are a holding company for wholly owned subsidiaries, which now operates in one primary business segment. Our Commercial segment consisted of our Automotive Safety division which was sold as discussed in Note 12, above. Our Aerospace and Defense segment includes operations that design and manufacture crash resistant components, energy absorbing devices, and ballistic armor products, which are sold principally to branches of the United States armed forces. All other activity, included in Other, represents general corporate operations, including unallocated interest and technology sales and royalties and operations from our business derived from proprietary technology and polymer materials.

Results of Operations for the Three-Month Period Ended June 30, 2003

     Revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 decreased 20% compared to revenue in the same period for 2002. Revenue for the period declined 19% in the Aerospace and Defense segment primarily due to timing of orders and delays in Department of Defense funding of various programs. We completed the move of our Asheville facility to our Phoenix facility as of March 31, 2003; however, temporary revenue shortfalls affected this area of our business as the former Asheville operations were integrated into the Phoenix facility. Small Arms Protective Inserts (“SAPI”) business continues to be robust. However, SAPI revenues were negatively impacted during the second quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 due to the timing of orders and the validation and rework completed in the first quarter of 2003. The aforementioned decreases were partially offset by increased revenues related to our Inflatable Systems and Product Spares. The remaining revenue decrease is attributable to our technology licensing efforts, which decreased during the second quarter of 2003, primarily due to a strategic decision to retain all technology rights as an asset during our focused efforts on selling the entire Company. Results were consistent with internal expectations and forecasts.

Gross margin as a percent of sales in our Aerospace and Defense segment increased to 38% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 34% for the same period in 2002. The increase was primarily due to cost savings related to the move and integration of the Asheville facility to our Phoenix location as well as the effect of cost reduction efforts completed in 2002 and early 2003.

     Administrative and research and development expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 increased $0.1 million or 3% as compared to the same 2002 period. The increase is related to increased research and development activities. We and others in the aerospace and defense industry have experienced a shift from externally funded development to more internally funded development, which has caused research and development expenditures to increase for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Additionally, approximately $0.3 million of relocation charges related to the Asheville facility shutdown and move is included in general administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The aforementioned increases were partially offset by cost saving reductions in general administrative expenses related to restructuring activities discussed above.

     Operating income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $2.4 million compared to $3.8 million for the same period in 2002. This decrease was attributable to lower revenues discussed above as well as restructuring charges and other costs associated with the move and integration of our Asheville facility.

     Interest expense increased to $3.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $2.6 for the same period in 2002. The increase is primarily attributable to approximately $0.4 million of expense related to a yield maintenance interest feature in the mortgage note for the Asheville facility that was retired in April 2003. Cash paid for interest for each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $1.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

     Other expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $1.0 million and was entirely attributable to a one-time performance fee payment related to covenant non-compliance under our Senior Secured Note.

     We recorded a tax expense of approximately $173,000 in discontinued operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 for our operations in the U.K. and believe that the year to date tax rate is properly reflected in the financial statements.

Results of Operations for the Six-Month Period Ended June 30, 2003

     Revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 decreased 21% compared to revenue in the same period for 2002. Revenue for the period declined 20% in the Aerospace and Defense segment. In the first quarter of 2003, SAPI body armor revenue grew compared to the same period in 2002. However, production revenues and profitability were negatively impacted as we completed the SAPI body armor design validation for rework announced in November of 2002. We resumed full production of SAPI for the U.S. Army in late February 2003, but the design validation process did cause delay in the timing of revenues anticipated in the second quarter of 2003 related to new SAPI orders. Also in the first quarter, we completed the consolidation of our Asheville, North Carolina, operation into the larger Aerospace and Defense facility based in Phoenix. The plant closure and transition resulted in a temporary revenue shortfall. Additionally, revenues were negatively impacted by decreases in orders for our military sealed parachute product and were partially offset by increased production of military personnel vests. The aforementioned decreases were also partially offset by increases in our Inflatable Systems and Product Spares. Technology and licensing revenues for the six-months ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately 48% compared to the same period in 2002 and is primarily attributed to a strategic decision to retain all technology rights as an asset during our focused efforts on selling the entire Company.

     Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased to 37% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 from 35% for the comparable period in 2002. Gross margin as a percent of sales in our Aerospace and Defense segment increased to 36% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from 34% for the same period in 2002. The integration of the Asheville facility to the Phoenix location enabled us to achieve cost savings not experienced in 2002 and cost reduction efforts began in 2002 and early 2003 have been the key drivers for the increased margins.

     Administrative and research and development expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 increased $0.3 million or 4% as compared to the same 2002 period. The increase is due primarily to increases in research and development costs due to investments in the design and qualification testing of new SAPI body armor product for future procurements as well as by company wide premium increases in insurance that did not have an impact in the six month period ended June 30, 2002. Also included in general administrative expense as of June 30, 2003 is approximately $0.4 million of relocation costs related to the Asheville facility shutdown and move. These increases in costs were partially offset by cost reductions activities initiated in 2002 and early 2003.

     Operating income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $3.6 million as compared to $7.2 million for the same period in 2002. The 2003 operating income for the six-month period was negatively impacted by lower revenues discussed above as well as restructuring charges, costs associated with the move of our Asheville facility, the investments in the design and qualification testing for SAPI body armor for future procurements and the completion of the voluntary SAPI rework.

     Interest expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $5.8 million compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2002. The increase in interest expense between the two periods is primarily attributable to approximately $0.4 million of expense related to a yield maintenance interest feature in the mortgage note for the Asheville facility that the was retired in April 2003. Cash paid for interest for each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $3.8 million.

     Other expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $1.0 million and was entirely attributable to a one-time performance fee payment related to covenant non-compliance for failure to met a leverage ratio as of June 30, 2003 under our Senior Secured Note.

     We recorded a tax expense of approximately $283,000, of which approximately $266,000 is recorded in discontinued operations, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 for our operations in the U.K. and North Carolina and believe that the year to date tax rate is properly reflected in the financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Current maturities of our debt as of June 30, 2003 are $71.7 million and primarily consist of $ 9.6 million under our revolving line of credit (“RLC”) due September 30, 2003, $3.2 million of our 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due September 30, 2003, $27.3 million of our Senior Secured Note due December 31, 2003, and $31.4 million of our 8% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 1, 2004. As part of the plan to meet future quarterly covenants and current and long-term debt maturities, we sold our Automotive Safety division during July 2003 and subsequently entered into a letter of intent providing for the sale and merger of Simula, Inc., as discussed below.

     On July 22, 2003, we completed the sale of all the assets of our Automotive Safety division to Zodiac, S.A. at a selling price of $14.3 million in cash. Customary closing and purchase price adjustments are expected to be completed within 45 days of the sale closing. After deducting closing costs and purchase price adjustments, we received net proceeds of approximately $11.0 million. Currently included in the closing costs is approximately $1.0 million related to two separate escrow accounts, from which we can potentially recover a maximum $0.5 million within three months and a maximum of $0.5 million in 18 months. The transaction resulted in a gain on sale of discontinued operations of approximately $0.1 million before recovery of any amounts deposited in the escrows previously discussed. We applied the net proceeds to repay a portion of our outstanding debt.

     On July 23, 2003, we announced that we signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to be acquired by Armor Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:AH) of Jacksonville, Florida. The LOI states that Armor Holdings shall acquire all outstanding common stock of the Company, retire outstanding indebtedness, and assume all liabilities of Simula for total consideration of $110.5 million. Consideration to Simula’s shareholders will, at Armor Holdings’ discretion, consist of cash or a combination of cash and registered shares of Armor Holdings’ common stock, with at least 20% of the value of the payment to shareholders to be in cash. The transaction is structured as a merger and is expected to be taxable to Simula’s shareholders.

     The LOI calls for an exclusive negotiation period through August 29, 2003, during which the companies will endeavor to complete all necessary activities leading to the execution of a definitive merger agreement. The LOI provides for a good faith deposit by Armor Holdings, expedited due diligence and payment of a break-up fee if Simula accepts a competing offer. The transaction is subject to, among other things, satisfactory due diligence, the execution of a definitive agreement, regulatory approvals including

satisfaction of the requirements and waiting period related to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act, requisite approvals by each company’s Board of Directors, and the approval of Simula’s shareholders. Upon completion of the definitive agreement, we anticipate submission of a proxy/registration statement to its shareholders for approval of the transaction and a closing on or about November 15, 2003. The Board of Directors of both Simula and Armor Holdings have approved the proposed transaction as defined in the LOI.

     On June 30, 2003, we were not in compliance with certain non-monetary financial covenants under our RLC. On August 12, 2003, we received waivers of the non-compliance at June 30, 2003. In addition, as of June 30, 2003, we were not in compliance with certain non-monetary financial covenants under our Senior Secured Note, which provided for a fee of $1.0 million. The fee has been recorded as of June 30, 2003, is separately classified in other income and expense and was paid on July 31, 2003. On August 12, 2003, we received a waiver of the non-compliance at June 30, 2003.

     Because of our management and operational re-alignment and our operational profitability, we expect to generate future positive operating cash flows that, together with our existing availability under our RLC, will be adequate to fund our planned operations, excluding the principal payments on the current debt previously discussed.

     We continually review our revenue and cost forecasts so that we can react to changes in our operations and liquidity position. The amount and timing of Department of Defense procurement and future constraints on certain raw materials and their costs could impact our ability to generate Aerospace and Defense revenue and income. See “Forward-Looking Information and Risks and Uncertainties in our Business” below and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” included Item 3 of this Part I

     Our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations is principally dependent upon our ability to continue to increase revenue and contain or reduce operating expenses. At June 30, 2003, we had cash and cash equivalents of $193,199 compared to $147,842 at December 31, 2002. Our RLC had outstanding borrowings of $9.6 million and remaining borrowing availability of $5.8 million at June 30, 2003 as compared to outstanding borrowings of $11.3 million and a remaining borrowing availability of $1.3 million at December 31, 2002. At August 11, 2003 our outstanding borrowings under the RLC was $0.7 million and remaining borrowing availability was $4.1 million. Because of our federal and certain state net operating loss carryforwards, we are not a significant cash taxpayer.

     Operating activities provided approximately $2.2 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to approximately $1.0 million for the comparable period in 2002. The increase in cash provided by operations was attributable to less overall working capital required as compared to the prior 2002 period, which required heavier investments primarily in accounts receivable and inventory and was partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and decreases in advances on contracts.

     Investing activities provided $0.5 million during the six-months ended June 30, 2003 compared to a use of approximately $0.8 million for the same period in 2002. The increase in cash provided by investing activities is related to the completion of the sale of the Asheville facility. After closing costs, we received proceeds of approximately $1.5 million and applied those proceeds to retire the mortgage on the facility of approximately $0.9 million and pay a yield maintenance interest fee of approximately $0.4 million, which is recorded in interest expense. The cash provided by investing activities was partially offset by the purchase of manufacturing equipment and additional investment in our patent portfolio.

     Financing activities used net cash of $2.6 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $0.2 million provided by financing activities for the same period in 2002. Cash used in financing activities during the six-months ended June 30, 2003 was attributable to retirement of the Asheville facility mortgage note payable and decreased borrowings under our RLC.

     We believe we have sufficient manufacturing capacity, at June 30, 2003, to meet our anticipated future delivery requirements. We may, however, seek strategic partners for the joint development of capital intensive manufacturing capacity for new high technology products.

Research and Development

     Historically, we have made significant investments in research and development. Our research and development expenditures have fluctuated based on available government-funded contracts and available company funding. We anticipate that future fluctuations will continue as a result of our efforts to expand product lines and enhance our existing technologies.

Forward Looking Information and Risks and Uncertainties in our Business

     A wide variety of factors affect our projected operating and financial results and can adversely impact our revenues, profitability and cash flows. Our liquidity and available working capital depend upon our cash flow from operations and, will require proceeds from asset sales or licensing, refinancing of our debt, or potential sale or merger of Simula. Improved cash flow from operations will depend on our ability to continue to implement our cost cutting initiatives. Continued compliance with our debt covenants is necessary to avoid loan defaults and is a requirement for maintaining access to funds available under our RLC.

     With respect to our product offerings many of our products are subassemblies in final products. We act as subcontractor to defense industry prime contractors. Accordingly, we are reliant on others to gain and retain market acceptance for our products, and we must continue to demonstrate that our products will provide advantages to the manufacturers of final products, including increasing product safety and providing such manufacturers with competitive cost advantages

     Although we have long established relationships with a number of our Aerospace and Defense customers, we do not have significant long-term supply contracts with any of these customers. Our customers typically do not commit to long-term production schedules and, as a result, customer orders generally are subject to cancellation or delay. Reliance upon defense contracts involves certain risks, including dependence on congressional appropriations and changes in governmental policies that reflect military and political developments.

     Factors pertinent to our ability to meet our current and future financial requirements and projections include:

  our ability to complete the pending acquisition by Armor Holdings, Inc.;
 
  our relationship with our senior lenders and on-going compliance with loan terms and covenants;
 
  our relationship with significant customers and maintenance of preferred supplier relationships with them that are renegotiated frequently;
 
  our leveraged status and the level and cost of our debt;
 
  the continued reduction of our fixed expenses;
 
  ability to monetize assets including through sales of certain assets or technologies at a favorable price;
 
  our ability to continue to provide design and manufacturing services, products and new product applications that compare favorably on the basis of time to introduction, cost, and performance with those of our competitors;
 
  the level and makeup of military expenditures;
 
  contract mix and shifting production and delivery schedules among our market segments;
 
  the amount of resources available for independent research and development;
 
  proof of concept and production validation of certain of our new technologies and proposed products, as well as our financial ability to establish manufacturing capacity for such products; and
 
  technological changes introduced by competitors and customers.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Currency Exchange Rate Risk

     We have currency exposures related to buying and selling in currencies other than the local currency in which we operate. These exposures may impact future earnings and/or operating cash flows. Currently, our most significant exposure relates to the Euro and the British Pound. We have supply contracts that are Euro denominated for our ITS® and AHPS products. We maintained a manufacturing facility in the United Kingdom for which we fund operating expenses in British Pounds. We enter into foreign currency hedge transactions to mitigate our associated risks. The magnitude of the exposure varies over time and we enter into agreements from time to time by which we seek to manage certain portions of our foreign exchange exposure in accordance with established policy guidelines. These arrangements primarily hedge cash flows for forecasted transactions involving receivables and payables. We currently have no hedging contracts open as of June 30, 2003, and we disposed of our U.K. manufacturing facility when we sold our Automotive Safety division on July 22, 2003.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

     Within the 90-day period prior to the filing date of this report, we evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 15d-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that Simula’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Simula’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

     Subsequent to the date of our evaluation, there were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the disclosure controls.
