NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial information included herein has been prepared by Schmitt Industries, Inc. (the Company or Schmitt) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of February 28, 2013 and its results of operations and its cash flows for the periods presented. The consolidated balance sheet at May 31, 2012 has been derived from the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2012. The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2012. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be experienced for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2013.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue for sales and billing for freight charges upon delivery of the product to the customer at a fixed and determinable price with a reasonable assurance of collection, passage of title to the customer as indicated by shipping terms and fulfilment of all significant obligations, pursuant to the guidance provided by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605. For sales to all customers, including manufacturer representatives, distributors or their third-party customers, these criteria are met at the time product is shipped. When other significant obligations remain after products are delivered, revenue is recognized only after such obligations are fulfilled. In addition, judgments are required in evaluating the credit worthiness of our customers. Credit is not extended to customers and revenue is not recognized until we have determined that collectability is reasonably assured.

Financial Instruments

The carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also approximates fair value because of their short-term maturities.

Note 2:

INVENTORY

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market with cost determined on the average cost basis. Costs included in inventories consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead, which are related to the purchase or production of inventories. Write-downs, when required, are made to reduce excess inventories to their net realizable values. Such estimates are based on assumptions regarding future demand and market conditions. If actual conditions become less favorable than the assumptions used, an additional inventory write-down may be required. As of February 28, 2013 and May 31, 2012, inventories consisted of:

Inventory classification

Raw materials	$	1,999,414	$	1,638,280
Work-in-process		1,015,324		980,092
Finished goods		1,729,560		1,357,228

	$	4,744,298	$	3,975,600

Page 8

Note 3:

LINE OF CREDIT

In February 2012, the Company extended its bank line of credit secured by U.S. accounts receivable, inventories and general intangibles through March 1, 2014 and raised the lending limit from $1.0 million to $2.0 million. Interest is payable at the bank’s prime rate (3.25% as of February 28, 2013) or LIBOR plus 2.0% (2.20% as of February 28, 2013). There were no outstanding balances on the line of credit at February 28, 2013 and May 31, 2012.

Note 4:

STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based compensation includes expense charges for all stock-based awards to employees and directors granted under the Company’s stock option plan. Stock-based compensation recognized during the period is based on the portion of the grant date fair value of the stock-based award that will vest during the period, adjusted for expected forfeitures. Compensation cost for all stock-based awards is recognized using the straight-line method. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method of valuation for stock-based awards. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, and other reasonable assumptions could provide differing results. These variables include, but are not limited to:

•

Risk-Free Interest Rate. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award.

•

Expected Life. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The Company determines the expected life based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and pre-vesting and post-vesting forfeitures.

•

Expected Volatility. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of grant based on the historical volatility of its common stock. The volatility factor the Company uses is based on its historical stock prices over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected life of the award. These historical periods may exclude portions of time when unusual transactions occurred.

•

Expected Dividend Yield. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of zero.

•

Expected Forfeitures. The Company uses relevant historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures. The Company records stock-based compensation only for those awards that are expected to vest.

The Company has computed, to determine stock-based compensation expense recognized for those options granted during the three and nine months ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012, the value of all stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. No stock options were issued during the nine months ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012.

At February 28, 2013, the Company had a total of 281,666 outstanding stock options (228,330 vested and exercisable and 53,336 non-vested) with a weighted average exercise price of $4.16. The Company estimates that a total of approximately $23,000 will be recorded as additional stock-based compensation expense during the remainder of the year ending May 31, 2013 for all options that were outstanding as of February 28, 2013, but which were not yet vested.

Outstanding Options						Exercisable Options
Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (yrs)		Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price
	41,666	$	2.30		1.3		41,666	$	2.30
	160,000		3.65		8.3		106,664		3.65

	281,666	$	4.16		6.3		228,330	$	4.28

Options granted, exercised, and forfeited or canceled under the Company’s stock option plan during the three and nine months ended February 28, 2013 are summarized as follows:


	Three Months Ended February 28, 2013				Nine Months Ended February 28, 2013
	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price

Weighted average shares (diluted)		2,990,910		2,964,892		2,990,910		2,937,019

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive incremental shares attributed to outstanding options to purchase common stock. Common stock equivalents for stock options are computed using the treasury stock method. In periods in which a net loss is incurred, no common stock equivalents are included since they are antidilutive and as such all stock options outstanding are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss in those periods. 9,594 and 11,924 potentially dilutive common shares from outstanding stock options have been excluded from diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2013, respectively.

Page 10

Note 6:

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Each year the Company files income tax returns in the various national, state and local income taxing jurisdictions in which it operates. These tax returns are subject to examination and possible challenge by the taxing authorities. Positions challenged by the taxing authorities may be settled or appealed by the Company. As a result, there is an uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with ASC Topic 740. The Company applies this guidance by defining criteria that an individual income tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and provides guidance on measurement, de-recognition, classification, accounting for interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

On June 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of ACS Topic 740. Other long-term liabilities related to tax contingencies were $0 and $7,500 as of February 28, 2013 and May 31, 2012, respectively. Interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions are recognized as components of the “Provision for income taxes.” The liability for payment of interest and penalties was $0 as of February 28, 2013 and May 31, 2012.

Several tax years are subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions. In the United States, federal tax years for Fiscal 2007 and after are subject to examination. In the United Kingdom, tax years for Fiscal 2006 and after are subject to examination. In Canada, tax years for 2005 and after are subject to examination. In the United States, returns related to an acquired subsidiary for the year ended October 31, 1994 and the final return for the period ended May 19, 1995 are also subject to examination.

Effective Tax Rate

The effective tax rate on consolidated net loss was (13.4)% for the nine months ended February 28, 2013. The effective tax rate on consolidated net loss differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the amount of income from foreign jurisdictions, changes in the deferred tax valuation allowance and certain expenses not being deductible for income tax reporting purposes. Management believes the effective tax rate for Fiscal 2013 will be approximately (60.3)% due to the items noted above.

Note 7:

SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS

The Company has two reportable business segments: dynamic balancing systems for the machine tool industry (Balancer) and laser-based and ultrasonic test and measurement systems (Measurement). The Company operates in three principal geographic markets: North America, Europe and Asia.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Schmitt Industries, Inc. designs, manufactures and markets computer-controlled vibration detection and balancing equipment (the Balancer segment) to the worldwide machine tool industry and through its wholly owned subsidiary, Schmitt Measurement Systems, Inc., precision laser-based surface measurement products, laser-based distance measurement products and ultrasonic measurement systems (the Measurement segment) for a variety of industrial applications worldwide. The Company sells and markets its products in Europe through its wholly owned subsidiary, Schmitt Europe Ltd. (SEL), located in the United Kingdom. The Company is organized into two operating segments: the Balancer segment and the Measurement segment. The accompanying unaudited financial information should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2012.

“SBS,” “SMS,” “Acuity,” “Xact” and “Lasercheck” are registered trademarks owned by the Company.

For the three months ended February 28, 2013, total sales decreased $360,000, or 11.4%, to $2.8 million compared to $3.2 million in the three months ended February 29, 2012. For the nine months ended February 28, 2013, total sales decreased $925,000, or 9.2%, to $9.2 million from $10.1 million in the nine months ended February 29, 2012. Balancer segment sales focus throughout the world on end-users, rebuilders and original equipment manufacturers of grinding machines with the target geographic markets in North America, South America, Asia and Europe. Balancer segment sales decreased $421,000, or 18.9%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012. Balancer segment sales decreased $1.2 million, or 16.6%, to $5.9 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $7.1 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. These decreases in worldwide balancer sales are due to lower volumes of shipments, particularly to Asia. The Measurement segment product line consists of laser-based light-scatter, distance measurement and dimensional sizing products and remote tank monitoring products. Total Measurement segment sales increased $61,000, or 6.5%, to $987,000 for the three months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $926,000 for the three months ended February 29, 2012. The increase is primarily due to increases in volumes of remote tank monitoring product shipments offset by lower volumes of shipments of distance measurement and dimensional sizing laser-based products as compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Total Measurement segment sales increased $255,000, or 8.5%, to $3.2 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $3.0 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. The increase is primarily due to higher volumes of shipments of remote tank monitoring products and distance measurement and dimensional sizing laser-based products offset by decreases in shipments of laser-based light-scatter surface measurement products.

Operating expenses have decreased $9,000, or 0.6%, to $1.5 million for the three months ended February 28, 2013 from $1.5 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012. Operating expenses have increased $255,000, or 5.5%, to $4.9 million

Page 14

for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 from $4.7 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. General, administration and sales expenses have decreased $82,000, or 5.7%, to $1.4 million for the three months ended February 28, 2013 from $1.4 million for the same period in the prior year. General, administration and sales expenses have increased $42,000, or 0.9%, to $4.5 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 from $4.5 million for the same period in the prior year. Research and development expenses have increased $73,000, or 79.3%, to $165,000 for the three months ended February 28, 2013 from $92,000 for the three months ended February 29, 2012. Research and development expenses have increased $214,000, or 108.1%, to $411,000 for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 from $198,000 for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. Net loss was $191,000, or $0.06 per fully diluted share, for the three months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to net income of $13,000, or $0.00 per fully diluted share, for the three months ended February 29, 2012. Net loss was $176,000, or $0.06 per fully diluted share, for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to net income of $71,000, or $0.02 per fully diluted share, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012.

Sales – Sales in the Balancer segment decreased $421,000, or 18.9%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012. This decrease is primarily due to lower unit sales volumes in Asia and North America offset in part by increases in Europe during the third quarter of Fiscal 2013. Sales in Asia decreased $376,000, or 45.9%, for the three months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to the three months ended February 29, 2012. North American sales decreased $70,000, or 5.9%, in the three months ended February 28, 2013 compared to the same period in the prior year. European sales increased $30,000, or 17.2%, in the third quarter of Fiscal 2013 compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2012. Sales in other regions of the world decreased $5,000, or 9.9%, in the third quarter of Fiscal 2013 as compared to the same quarter in the prior year. These decreases across most geographies are due primarily to lower volumes of shipments. The levels of demand for our Balancer products in any of the geographic markets cannot be forecasted with any certainty given the continuing volatility in the global economy and the historical volatility experienced in the manufacturing market.

Sales in the Balancer segment decreased $1.2 million, or 16.6%, to $5.9 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $7.1 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. This decrease is primarily due to lower unit sales volumes in Asia, North America and other regions of the world offset in part by increases in Europe during the first nine months of Fiscal 2013. Sales in Asia decreased $898,000, or 33.8%, for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended February 29, 2012. North American sales decreased $259,000, or 7.3%, in the nine months ended February 28, 2013 compared to the same period in the prior year. European sales increased $105,000, or 17.4%, in the first nine months of Fiscal 2013 compared to the first nine months of Fiscal 2012. Sales in other regions of the world decreased $128,000, or 46.1%, in the first nine months of Fiscal 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year. These decreases across most geographies are due primarily to lower volumes of shipments.

Sales in the Measurement segment increased $61,000, or 6.5%, to $987,000 in the three months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $926,000 in the three months ended February 29, 2012. Sales of remote tank monitoring products increased $107,000 to $176,000 during the third quarter of Fiscal 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Sales of light-scatter laser-based surface measurement products in the three months ended February 28, 2013 increased $8,000, or 11.2%, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher sales volumes of surface roughness measurement products in the current year. Sales of laser-based distance measurement and dimensional sizing products decreased $55,000, or 7.0%, in the three months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower volumes of shipments. Given the recent volatility in these markets, future sales of Measurement products cannot be forecasted with any certainty.

Sales in the Measurement segment increased $255,000, or 8.5%, to $3.2 million in the nine months ended February 28, 2013 compared to $3.0 million in the nine months ended February 29, 2012. Sales of remote tank monitoring products increased $409,000 to $564,000 during the first nine months of Fiscal 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Sales of laser-based distance measurement and dimensional sizing products increased $66,000, or 3.0%, in the nine months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher volumes of shipments. Sales of light-scatter laser-based surface measurement products in the nine months ended February 29, 2012 decreased $220,000, or 32.9%, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower volumes of surface roughness measurement products in the current year.

Gross margin – Gross margin for the three months ended February 28, 2013 decreased slightly to 48.5% as compared to 48.8% for the three months ended February 29, 2012. Gross margin for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 increased to 52.0% as compared to 46.7% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. This increase for the nine months is primarily due to a shift in the product sales mix toward higher margin products, lower sales volumes through the Asian distribution channels, which typically have higher discounts and lower margins, and the Company’s efforts to reduce the material costs from certain key suppliers.

Operating expenses – Operating expenses increased $9,000, or 0.6%, to $1.5 million for the three months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012. General, administrative and selling expenses decreased $82,000, or 5.7%, for the three months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower personnel costs partially offset by higher sales and marketing expenses. Research and development expenses increased $73,000, or 79.3%, to $165,000 as compared to $92,000 in the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher personnel costs and higher material costs associated with new product development related to existing product lines.

Operating expenses increased $255,000, or 5.5%, to $4.9 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to $4.7 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. General, administrative and selling expenses increased $42,000, or

Page 17

0.9%, for the three months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher sales and marketing expenses associated with the Company’s largest trade show offset by lower personnel costs. Research and development expenses increased $214,000, or 108.1%, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher personnel costs and higher material costs associated with new product development related to existing product lines.

Other income – Other income consists of interest income, foreign currency exchange gain (loss) and other income (expense). Interest income was $0 for both of the three-month periods ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012. Interest income was $1,000 for both of the nine-month periods ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012. Foreign currency exchange gains (losses) were $(3,000) and $16,000 for the three months ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Foreign currency exchange gains were $5,000 and $23,000 for the nine months ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Other income included a $18,000 gain on the sales of fixed assets for the nine months ended February 29, 2012.

Income tax provision – The Company’s effective tax rate on consolidated net loss was (13.4)% for the nine months ended February 28, 2013. The Company’s effective tax rate on consolidated net loss differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the amount of income from foreign jurisdictions, changes in the deferred tax valuation allowance and certain expenses not being deductible for income tax reporting purposes. Management believes the effective tax rate for Fiscal 2013 will be (60.3)% due to the items noted above.

Net income – Net loss increased to $191,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the three months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to net income of $13,000, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the three months ended February 29, 2012. Net loss increased due primarily to lower sales, lower gross profit, and higher research and development expenses offset in part by lower general, administrative and selling expenses during the three months ended February 28, 2013. Net loss increased to $176,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to net income of $71,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. Net loss increased due primarily to lower sales, higher general, administrative and selling expenses and higher research and development expenses offset by higher gross profit during the nine months ended February 28, 2013.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s working capital decreased $22,000 to $7.9 million as of February 28, 2013 from $7.9 million as of May 31, 2012. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $437,000 to $2.3 million as of February 28, 2013 from $2.8 million as of May 31, 2012.

Cash used in operating activities totaled $274,000 for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $113,000 for the three months ended February 29, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to increases in inventories and net loss and decreases in accounts payable, offset by decreases in accounts receivable and stock-based compensation.

At February 28, 2013, the Company had accounts receivable of $2.1 million as compared to $2.5 million at May 31, 2012. The decrease in accounts receivable of $396,000 is due to the timing of sales and collections during the first nine months of Fiscal 2013. Inventories increased $769,000 to $4.7 million as of February 28, 2013 compared to $4.0 million at May 31, 2012. The increase in inventories is due primarily to the timing of inventory receipts, the build-up of inventories for new products in anticipation of sales and the sale of the inventories. At February 28, 2013, total current liabilities decreased $65,000 to $1.5 million as compared to $1.5 million at May 31, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to decreases in accounts payable associated with the timing of payments.

During the nine months ended February 28, 2013, net cash used in investing activities was $152,000, which consisted of additions to property and equipment. Additions to property and equipment consisted primarily of office and computer equipment and a new roof for one of our buildings.

The Company has a $2.0 million bank line of credit agreement secured by U.S. accounts receivable, inventories and general intangibles. Interest is payable at the bank’s prime rate (3.25% as of February 28, 2013), or LIBOR plus 2.0% (2.20% as of February 28, 2013), and the agreement expires on March 1, 2014. There were no outstanding balances on the line of credit at February 28, 2013 and May 31, 2012.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents combined with the cash we anticipate to generate from operating activities and our available line of credit and financing available from other sources will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. We do not have any significant commitments nor are we aware of any significant events or conditions that are likely to have a material impact on our liquidity or capital resources.

Business Risks

The following are important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company (see the forward-looking statements disclaimer at the beginning of Item 2 in this Report). In addition, the risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones that the Company faces. Unforeseen risks could arise and problems or issues that the Company now views as minor could become more significant. If the Company were unable to adequately respond to significant risks and uncertainties, the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In addition, the Company cannot be certain that any actions taken to reduce known or unknown risks and uncertainties will be effective.

The general economic conditions and uncertainties may adversely affect the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition

The Company’s operations and performance depend significantly on worldwide economic conditions, particularly in the manufacturing and automotive sectors, and their impact on levels of capital investment, which have deteriorated significantly in the past and may become depressed, or be subject to further deterioration. Economic factors that could adversely influence demand for the Company’s products include uncertainty about global economic conditions leading to reduced levels of investment, customers’ and suppliers’ access to credit, unemployment and other macroeconomic factors affecting commercial and industrial spending behavior.

The past distress in the financial markets and global economy has resulted in reduced liquidity and a tightening of credit markets. As a result of these conditions, the Company could experience several potential adverse effects, including the inability of customers to obtain credit to finance purchases of the Company’s products, the insolvency of customers resulting in reduced sales and bad debts, and the insolvency of key suppliers resulting in product development and production delays.

The Company’s primary markets are volatile and unpredictable

The Company’s business depends on the demand for our various products in a variety of commercial and industrial markets. In the past, demand for our products in these markets has fluctuated due to a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including: general economic conditions, both domestically and internationally, the timing, number and size of orders from, and shipments to, our customers as well as the relative mix of those orders and variations in the volume of orders for a particular product line in a particular quarter.

The Xact tank monitoring system may not become commercially viable and we may not be able to meet manufacturing requirements of large orders

In May 2009, the Company announced the introduction of the Xact tank monitoring system for measuring fill levels of industrial liquefied propane tanks and communicating that data via satellite to a secure web site. Although the initial acquisition and further development of the Xact product has negatively impacted recent operating results, the product should allow the Company to enter new measurement markets and is expected to add sales and profits to the Company in future years. However, anticipated market demand for the Xact product may not materialize and additional product or market opportunities may not be identified and developed and brought to market in a timely and cost-effective manner. Also, the Company may not be able to meet the manufacturing requirements of large orders in a timely and cost-effective manner. All of this could continue to negatively impact future operating results and result in large and immediate write-offs of recorded intangible asset balances.

New products may not be developed to satisfy changes in consumer demands

The failure to develop new technologies, or react to changes in existing technologies, could materially delay development of new products, which could result in decreased revenues and a loss of market share to competitors. Financial performance depends on the ability to design, develop, manufacture, assemble, test, market and support new products and enhancements on a timely and cost-effective basis. New product opportunities may not be identified and developed and brought to market in a timely and cost-effective manner. Products or technologies developed by other companies may render products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive, or a fundamental shift in technologies in the product markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s competitive position within historic industries.

Failure to protect intellectual property rights could adversely affect future performance and growth

Failure to protect existing intellectual property rights may result in the loss of valuable technologies or paying other companies for infringing on their intellectual property rights. The Company relies on patent, trade secret, trademark and copyright law to protect such technologies. There is no assurance any of the Company’s U.S. patents will not be invalidated, circumvented, challenged or licensed to other companies.

Page 19

Competition is intense and the Company’s failure to compete effectively would adversely affect its business

Competition in the markets for the Company’s products is intense. The speed with which companies can identify new applications for the Company’s various technologies, develop products to meet those needs and supply commercial quantities at low prices to those new markets are important competitive factors. The principal competitive factors in the Company’s markets are product features, performance, reliability and price. Many of the Company’s competitors have greater financial, technical, research and development and marketing resources. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to compete effectively in the future, and the failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Production time and the overall cost of products could increase if any of the primary suppliers are lost or if a primary supplier increased the prices of raw materials

Manufacturing operations depend upon obtaining adequate supplies of raw materials on a timely basis. The results of operations could be adversely affected if adequate supplies of raw materials or components cannot be obtained in a timely manner or if the costs of raw materials or components increased significantly.

The Company may not be able to ramp up manufacturing to satisfy increasing demands, which may lead to the loss of significant revenue opportunities

The Company manufactures several different product lines, each of which involves complicated technology and requires significant individual attention for each product made. The production time for each product can vary, depending on a variety of circumstances, including component availability, timing of delivery of components from suppliers and employee availability. Should the Company experience a large increase in orders, an increase in the size of orders or a shortening of the required delivery time on existing orders, the Company may not be able to ramp up manufacturing to satisfy customer expectations, which may lead to the loss of significant revenue opportunities.

Fluctuations in quarterly and annual operating results make it difficult to predict future performance

Quarterly and annual operating results are likely to fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors, some of which are beyond management’s control. As a result of quarterly operating fluctuations, it is important to realize quarter-to-quarter comparisons of operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

The Company may not be able to reduce operating costs quickly enough if sales decline

Operating expenses are generally fixed in nature and largely based on anticipated sales. However, should future sales decline significantly and rapidly, there is no guarantee management could take actions that would further reduce operating expenses in either a timely manner or without seriously impacting the operations of the Company.

The Company maintains a significant investment in inventories in anticipation of future sales

The Company believes it maintains a competitive advantage by shipping product to its customers more rapidly than its competitors. As a result, the Company has a significant investment in inventories. These inventories are recorded using the lower-of-cost or market method, which requires management to make certain estimates. Management evaluates the recorded inventory values based on customer demand, market trends and expected future sales and changes these estimates accordingly. A significant shortfall of sales may result in carrying higher levels of inventories of finished goods and raw materials thereby increasing the risk of inventory obsolescence and corresponding inventory write-downs. As a result, the Company may not carry adequate reserves to offset such write-downs.

Future success depends in part on attracting and retaining key management and qualified technical and sales personnel

Future success depends on the efforts and continued services of key management, technical and sales personnel. Significant competition exists for such personnel, and there is no assurance that key technical and sales personnel can be retained or that other highly qualified technical and sales personnel as required can be attracted, assimilated and retained. There is also no guarantee that key employees will not leave and subsequently compete against the Company. The inability to attract and retain key personnel could adversely impact the business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in the effective tax rate may have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations

The Company’s future effective tax rate may be adversely affected by a number of factors including: the jurisdictions in which profits are determined to be earned and taxed; the resolution of issues arising from future potential tax audits with various tax authorities; changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities; adjustments to estimated taxes upon finalization of various tax returns; increases in expenses not deductible for tax purposes; changes in available tax credits; changes in stock-based compensation expense; changes in tax laws or the interpretations of such tax laws and changes in generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in securities laws and regulations have increased and will continue to increase Company expenses

Changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies, including the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, have increased and will continue to increase Company expenses as the Company devotes resources to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. In addition, the NASDAQ Capital Market, on which the Company’s common stock is listed, has also adopted comprehensive rules and regulations relating to corporate governance. These laws, rules and regulations have increased the scope, complexity and cost of corporate governance, reporting and disclosure practices. The Company may be required to hire additional personnel and use outside legal, accounting and advisory services to address these laws, rules and regulations. The Company also expects these developments to make it more difficult and more expensive for the Company to obtain director and officer liability insurance in the future, and the Company may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. Further, the Company’s board members, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer could face an increased risk of personal liability in connection with the performance of their duties. As a result, we may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified board members and executive officers, which would adversely affect the Company.

The Company faces risks from international sales and currency fluctuations

The Company markets and sells its products worldwide and international sales have accounted for and are expected to continue to account for a significant portion of future revenue. International sales are subject to a number of risks, including: the imposition of governmental controls; trade restrictions; difficulty in collecting receivables; changes in tariffs and taxes; difficulties in staffing and managing international operations; political and economic instability; general economic conditions; and fluctuations in foreign currencies. No assurances can be given that these factors will not have a material adverse effect on future international sales and operations and, consequently, on business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

The Company did not have any derivative financial instruments as of February 28, 2013. However, the Company could be exposed to interest rate risk at any time in the future and, therefore, employs established policies and procedures to manage its exposure to changes in the market risk of its marketable securities.

The Company’s interest income and expense are most sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. and European interest rates. In this regard, changes in U.S. and European interest rates affect the interest earned on the Company’s interest bearing cash equivalents and short term investments. The Company has a variable rate line of credit facility with a bank but there was no outstanding balance as of February 28, 2013. Also, there is no other long-term obligation whose interest rates are based on variable rates that may fluctuate over time based on economic changes in the environment. Therefore, at this time, the Company is not subject to interest rate risk on outstanding interest bearing obligations if market interest rates fluctuate and does not expect any change in the interest rates to have a material effect on the Company’s results from operations.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company markets and sells its products worldwide and international sales have accounted for and are expected to continue to account for a significant portion of future revenue. The Company operates a subsidiary in the United Kingdom and acquires certain materials and services from vendors transacted in foreign currencies. Therefore, the Company’s business and financial condition is sensitive to currency exchange rates and any other restrictions imposed on applicable currencies. For the three months ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012, results of operations included gains (losses) on foreign currency translation of $(3,000) and $16,000, respectively. For the nine months ended February 28 and 29, 2013 and 2012, results of operations included gains on foreign currency translation of $5,000 and $23,000, respectively.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of February 28, 2013, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on the evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives, and management necessarily is required to use its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting.
