PART III - NARRATIVE

 

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

As we previously disclosed in the Form 8-K dated March 30, 2007, the Company's Board of Directors including its Audit Committee concluded on March 29, 2007 to restate its interim financial statements for the quarters ending March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, and September 30, 2006, and the December 31, 2005 balance sheet (the "Restatements"). The Restatements primarily relate to the corrections of errors in the calculation of depreciation, unbilled accrued revenue and work in process inventory. The Company will include the restated interim financial data for the first three quarters of 2006 and the December 31, 2005 balance sheet in its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

As a result of the Restatements, we have not been able to finalize our financial statements for the inclusion in the 2006 Annual Report on form 10-K. Our goal is to complete the Restatements, release our audited financial statements and file our Form 10-K as soon as practicable thereafter.

While we do not believe the Restatements give rise to a default under our material debt agreements, we have requested that the lenders under our senior credit facility confirm this and we have asked them to waive any default arising from the late delivery of our audited annual financial statements. We are in the process of obtaining such waivers.

The restated numbers that will be reflected in the 10-K including the December 31, 2005 balance sheet and the interim financial statements for the quarters ending March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, and September 30, 2006 are still being reviewed by the Company.

At this time we expect the changes to be substantially as follows to the quarterly statements of income:

1. Q1 - Revenue will change from $72.7M to $72.1M. Cost and Expenses are unchanged. Income before taxes will change from $1.2M to $0.6M. Net income will change from $0.8M to $0.4M. EBITDA (a non-GAAP measurement) will change from $13.8M to $13.7M. The EBITDA change was driven by a $0.6M decline in revenue partially offset by a $0.5M decrease in COGS (excluding depreciation). Depreciation increased by $0.5M.

2. Q2 - Revenue will change from $74.3M to $75.8M. Cost and Expenses will change from $72.6M to $72.9M. Income before taxes will change from $1.8M to $2.9M. Net Income will change from $0.8M to $1.6M. EBITDA (a non-GAAP measurement) will change from $15.4M to $16.8M. The EBITDA change was driven by a $1.5M increase in revenue partially offset by a $0.1M increase in COGS (excluding depreciation). Depreciation increased by $0.5M.

3. Q3 - Revenue will change from $71.1M to $69.1M. Cost and Expenses are unchanged. Income before taxes will change from $1.5M to negative $0.5M. Net income will change from $0.8M to a negative $0.5M. EBITDA (a non-GAAP measurement) will change from $14.6M to $13.6M. The EBITDA change was driven by a $2.0M decline in revenue, partially offset by a $1.0M decrease in COGA (excluding depreciation). Depreciation increased by $0.8M.

4. Nine months ending September 30, 2006 - Revenue will change from $218.2M to $217.1M. Cost and Expenses will change from $213.8M to $214.1M. Income before taxes will change from $4.5M to $3.0M. Net income will change from $2.3M to $1.5M. EBITDA (a non-GAAP measurement) will change from $43.8M to $44.0M. The EBITDA change was driven by a decrease in revenue of $1.1M, which was more than offset by a COGS decrease of $1.4M (excluding depreciation). Depreciation increased by $0.8M.

Material Weaknesses:

In connection with the Restatements and our evaluation of disclosure, controls and procedures as of December 31, 2006, we have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to the existence of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The following material weaknesses have been identified:

* Lack of sufficient resources in our accounting and finance organization. We lacked a sufficient complement of personnel with a level of financial reporting expertise commensurate with our financial reporting requirements, which resulted in our not maintaining effective controls over the financial statement close and reporting process. Specifically, subsequent to our separation from Alcoa, we lacked sufficient resources to monitor and accurately record certain routine transactions in accordance with GAAP or to properly perform the quarterly and annual financial statement close processes, including the review of certain account reconciliations and financial statement preparation and disclosures. This control deficiency contributed to the material weaknesses discussed below.

* Accounting for unbilled accounts receivable. We did not maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy of accrued revenue. Specifically, we failed to maintain a process to accurately record amounts related to earned but unbilled revenue at period end. This control deficiency affected revenue and accrued revenue.

* Accounting for work-in-process inventory. We did not maintain effective controls over the completeness and accuracy of work-in-process inventory. Specifically, our systems and processes were insufficient to accurately track work-in-process or to accurately identify and apply a value to work-in-process inventory on-hand at the end of the period. This control deficiency affected inventory and cost of goods sold.

* Accounting for contract revenue. We did not maintain effective controls over the accuracy of revenues earned under contracts with non-standard terms and conditions. Specifically, our controls were inadequate to appropriately account, in accordance with GAAP, for revenue earned under one of our contracts that included clauses that impacted the price of goods provided to those customers included in the contract. This control deficiency affected revenue and other liabilities.

* Accounting for property, plant and equipment. We did not maintain effective controls over the presentation and disclosure of our property, plant and equipment. Specifically, we failed to maintain and monitor an appropriate policy to accurately and timely capitalize fixed assets in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, we failed to maintain and monitor an appropriate policy regarding the assignment of depreciable lives in accordance with GAAP. This control deficiency affected our property, plant and equipment accounts, operating expense, and depreciation expense.

* Accounting for intangible assets. We did not maintain effective controls to accurately and completely record amortization of acquired intangibles. Specifically, we failed to amortize certain of our intangible assets obtained from acquisitions in accordance with an appropriate useful life. This control deficiency affected amortization expense and net intangible assets.

* Accounting for accrued and other expenses. We did not maintain effective controls to ensure the completeness and accuracy of certain of our accrued liabilities and related expense accounts. Specifically, we did not ensure appropriate cut off at period end for certain routine purchases and expenditures. This deficiency affected accrued expenses and operating expense.

Since management has not completed the preparation of its annual consolidated financial statements or its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures, there can be no assurance that additional control deficiencies will not be identified that could be material weaknesses. Additionally, information regarding management's plan for remediation of the aforementioned material weakness will be disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K when filed.
