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 Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2007 earnings release, which can be found on our website at
www.mc.com/mediacenter/pr/.
