Forward-Looking Safe Harbor Statement
This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, including those relating to anticipated fiscal 2007 business performance and beyond. You can
identify
these
statements
by
our
use
of
the
words
"may,"
"will,"
"should," "plans," "expects," "anticipates," "continue,"
"estimate," "project," "intend," and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Such risks and uncertainties
include, but are not limited to, general economic and business conditions, including unforeseen weakness in the
Company's markets, effects of continued geopolitical unrest and regional conflicts, competition, changes in technology
and methods of marketing, delays in completing engineering and manufacturing programs, changes in customer order
patterns, changes in product mix, continued success in technological advances and delivering technological innovations,
continued funding of defense programs, the timing of such funding, changes in the U.S. Government's interpretation of
federal procurement rules and regulations, market acceptance of the Company's products, shortages in components,
production delays due to performance quality issues with outsourced components, the inability to fully realize the
expected benefits from acquisitions or delays in realizing such benefits, challenges in integrating acquired businesses
and achieving anticipated synergies, and difficulties in retaining key customers. These risks and uncertainties also
include such additional risk factors as are discussed in the Company's recent filings with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006. The Company
cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the
date made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date on which such statement is made.
Use of Non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the
Company provides non-GAAP financial measures adjusted to exclude certain specified charges, which the Company
believes
are
useful
to
help
investors
better
understand
its
past
financial performance and prospects for the future.
However, the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures
assist in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying operational results and trends, and
management uses these measures, along with their corresponding GAAP financial measures, to manage the
Company's business, to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish
operational goals. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this presentation is contained
in
the
company’s
