OVERVIEW The Company operates in one business segment as an independent provider of electronic manufacturing services ("EMS"), which includes printed circuit board assemblies and completely assembled (boxbuild)(box-build) electronic products. In connection with the production of assembled products, the Company also provides services to its customers, including (1) automatic and manual assembly and testing of products; (2) material sourcing and procurement; (3) design, manufacturing and test engineering support; (4) warehousing and shipment services; and (5) assistance in obtaining product approval from governmental and other regulatory bodies. The Company provides these manufacturing services through an international network of facilities located in North America, China and Taiwan. The Company provides manufacturing and assembly services ranging from the assembly of individual components to the assembly and testing of boxbuildbox-build electronic products. The Company has the ability to produce assemblies requiring mechanical as well as electronic capabilities. The products assembled by the Company are then incorporated into finished products sold in various marketplaces,industries, particularly appliance, consumer electronics, gaming, fitness, industrial electronics, life sciences, semiconductor, telecommunications and automotive. During August and September 2004 the Company acquired all the interests of the outside investors in its affiliate, SMT Unlimited L.P. ("SMTU"), and the general partner of SMTU, SMT Unlimited, Inc. On October 1, 2004, SMT Unlimited, Inc. was merged into the Company, and SMTU was liquidated, thereby 4 becoming an operating division of the Company. Prior to the acquisition by the Company, SMTU was consolidated under FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN46R") Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. In July 2005 the Company closed on the purchase of all of the outstanding stock of Able, a company headquartered in Hayward California and its wholly owned subsidiary, AbleMex S.A. de C.V., located in Tijuana, Mexico. Able is an ISO 9001:2000 certified EMS company serving Original Equipment Manufacturers in the life sciences, telecommunications and industrial electronics industries. The acquisition of Able has allowed the Company to make strides towards achieving four objectives: (1) to further diversify its markets, capabilities and customer base, (2) adding a third low-cost manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico, (3) creating an opportunity to consolidate the California operations into one facility, and (4) to generate incremental revenue from Able's customers as they become familiar with the Company's broader array of services. The effective date of the transaction was July 1, 2005. Able was merged into the Company beginning in November 2005 and operates as a division of the Company. The purchase price was approximately $16,800,000 and was recorded as a stock purchase transaction in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006. The transaction was financed by the Company's amended credit facility and resulted in an increase of approximately $8,500,000 in goodwill. In June 2005 the Company closed on the sale of its Las Vegas, Nevada operation. The Las Vegas facility operated as a complete EMS center specializing in the assembly of electronic products and cables for a broad range of customers primarily in the gaming industry. The effective date of the transaction was May 30, 2005. The transaction was structured as an asset purchase, and included a $2,000,000 cash payment to the Company for the buyer's purchase of the machinery, equipment and other assets of the Las Vegas operation. The transaction was recorded by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 and included a gain on the transaction of approximately $311,000. The gain was offset by a loss of approximately $383,000 from discontinued operations for the Las Vegas operation for the period ended April 30, 2006. The Company operates manufacturing facilities in Elk Grove Village, Illinois; Las Vegas, Nevada;Hayward, California; Acuna and Tijuana, Mexico; and Wujiang, China. The Company maintains materials sourcing offices in Elk Grove Village, Illinois; Las Vegas, Nevada; Acuna, Mexico;Hayward, California; and Taipei, Taiwan. The Company provides warehousing services in Del Rio, Texas and Huntsville, Alabama. In addition, the Company's 42.5% owned affiliate, SMTU, provides EMS in Fremont, California. The Company is a Delaware corporation which was organized on November 16, 1993, and commenced businessoperations when it became the successor to all of the assets and liabilities of SigmaTron L.P., an Illinois limited partnership, through a reorganization on February 8, 1994. 3 PRODUCTS AND SERVICES The Company provides a broad range of manufacturing related outsourcing solutions for its customers on both a turnkey basis (material purchased by the Company) and consignment basis (material provided by the customer). These solutions incorporate the Company's knowledge and expertise in the EMS industry to provide its customers with advanced manufacturing technologies and high quality, and responsive and flexible manufacturing services. The Company's EMS solutions provide services from product inception through the ultimate delivery of a finished good. Such technologies and services include the following: Manufacturing and Related Services. As its customers experience greater competition and shorter product life cycles in their respective industries, the Company has responded by expanding its existing prototype services. The Company provides quick-turnaround, turnkey prototype services at all of its locations. Materials Procurement.Supply Chain Management. The Company is primarily a turnkey manufacturer and directly sources all, or a substantial portion, of the components necessary for its product assemblies, rather than receiving the raw materials from its customers on consignment. Material procurementTurnkey services involve a greater investment in resources and an increased inventory risk compared to consignment services. Supply chain management includes the purchasing, management, storage and delivery of raw components required for the manufacture or assembly of a customer's product based upon the customer's orders. The Company procures components from a select group of vendors which meet its standards for timely delivery, high quality and cost effectiveness, or as directed by its customers. Raw materials used in the assembly and manufacture of printed circuit boards and electronic assemblies are generally available from several suppliers, unless restricted by the customer. The Company does not enter into purchase agreements with the majority of its major or single-source suppliers. The Company believes ad-hoc negotiations with its suppliers provides the flexibility needed to source inventory based on the needs of its customers. 5 The Company believes that its ability to source and procure competitively priced, quality components is critical to its ability to effectively compete. In addition to obtaining materials in North America, the Company utilizesuses its Taiwanese procurement office and agents to source materials from the Far East. The Company believes this office allows it to more effectively manage its relationships with key suppliers in the Far East by allowingpermitting it to respond more quickly to changes in market dynamics, including fluctuations in price, availability and quality. Assembly and Manufacturing. The Company's core business is the assembly of printed circuit boards through the automated and manual insertion of components ontoon to raw printed circuit boards. The Company offers its assembly services using both pin-through-hole ("PTH") and surface mount ("SMT") interconnect technologies at all of its manufacturing locations. SMT is an assembly process which allows the placement of a higher density of components directly on both sides of a printed circuit board. The SMT process is an advancement over the mature PTH technology, which normally permits electronic components to be attached to only one side of a printed circuit board by inserting the component into holes drilled through the board. The SMT process allows original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") to use advanced circuitry, while at the same time permitting the placement of a greater number of components on a printed circuit board without having to increase the size of the board. By allowing increasingly complex circuits to be packaged with the components in closer proximity to each other, SMT greatly enhances circuit processing speed, and thus, board and system performance. The Company performs PTH assembly both manually and with automated component insertion and soldering equipment. Although SMT is a more sophisticated interconnect technology, the Company intends to continue providing PTH assembly services for its customers because it believes that SMT will not entirely eliminateas the need for PTH technology. The Company believes that OEMs with products not limited by internal space constraints willCompany's customers continue to favorrequire both PTH over SMT. SigmaTronand SMT capabilities. The Company is also capable of assembling fine pitch and ball grid array ("BGA") components. BGA is used for more complex circuit boards required to perform at higher speeds. In additionManufacturing and Related Services. The Company offers The Restriction of Use of Hazardous Substances ("RoHS") compliant assembly services in order to printed circuit board assemblies,comply with the Company also manufactures DC-to-AC inverters, coils, transformersEuropean Union environmental mandate that became effective Mid-2006 and cable and harness assemblies. These products are manufactured using both automated and semi-automated preparation and insertion equipment and manualis currently performing RoHS compliant assembly techniques.services at each of its manufacturing locations. The Company also provides quick turnaround, turnkey prototype services at all of its locations. In Elk Grove Village, the Company offers boxbuildtouch screen / LCD assembly services in a clean room environment. In Acuna, Mexico, the Company offers parylene coating services. In Tijuana, Mexico, the Company offers diagnostic, repair and rework services for power supplies. In all locations, the Company offers box-build services, which integrate its printed circuit board and other manufacturing and assembly technologies into higher level sub-assemblies and end products. 4 Finally, the Company designs and manufactures DC to AC inverters. Product Testing. The Company has the ability to perform both in-circuit and functional testing of its assemblies and finished products. In-circuit testing verifies that the correct components have been properly inserted and that the electrical circuits are complete. Functional testing determines if a board or system assembly is performing to customer specifications. The Company provides X-ray laminography services through its affiliate SMTU. The Company seeks to provide customers with highly sophisticated testing services that are at the forefront of current test technology. Warehousing and Distribution. In response to the needs of select customers, the Company has the ability to provide in-house warehousing, shipping and receiving and customer brokerage services in Del Rio, Texas for goods manufactured or assembled in Mexico and for goods manufactured for a customer in Huntsville, Alabama.Acuna, Mexico. The Company also has the ability to provide custom-tailored delivery schedules and services to fulfill the just-in-time inventory needs of its customers. MARKETS AND CUSTOMERS The company'sCompany's customers are in the appliance, gaming, industrial electronics, fitness, life sciences, semiconductor, telecommunications, consumer electronics and automotive industries. As of April 30, 2004,2006, the Company had approximately 160 active customers ranging from Fortune 500 companies to small, privately held enterprises. 6 The following table shows, for the periods indicated, the percentage of net sales to the principal end-user markets it serves.

For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, Spitfire Controls, Inc. and Life Fitness accounted for 30.1% and 19.7%, respectively, of the Company's net sales. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, Spitfire Controls, Inc. and Life Fitness accounted for 31.5% and 17.5%, respectively, of the Company's net sales. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, Spitfire Controls, Inc. and Life Fitness accounted for 35.7% and 13.0%, respectively, of the Company's net sales. ForAlthough the fiscal year ended April 30, 2003, Spitfire Controls, Inc. and Life Fitness accounted for 27.2% and 13.3%, respectively, ofCompany does not have long term contracts with these two customers, the Company's net sales. In fiscal 2002, Spitfire Controls, Inc. and Life Fitness accounted for 20.7% and 15.2%, respectively, of net sales. The Company expects that these customers as a group these customers will continue to account for a significant percentage of the Company's net sales, although the individual percentages may vary from period to period. SALES AND MARKETING The Company markets its services through 1811 independent manufacturers' representative organizations that together currently employ approximately 4936 sales personnel in the United States and Canada. Independent manufacturers' representative organizations receive variable commissions based on orders received by the Company and are assigned specific accounts, not territories. The members of the Company's senior management are actively involved in sales and marketing efforts and the Company has 5 direct sales people. 5 employees. Sales volume and gross profit marginscan be a misleading indicator of the Company's financial performance. Sales levels can vary considerably among customers and products depending on the type of services (consignment and turnkey) rendered by the Company. Specifically, variationsCompany and the demand by customers. Consignment orders require the Company to perform manufacturing services on components and other materials supplied by a customer, and the Company charges only for its labor, overhead and manufacturing costs, plus a profit. In the case of turnkey orders, the Company provides, in ordersaddition to manufacturing services, the components and other materials used in assembly. Turnkey contracts, in general, have a higher dollar volume of sales for turnkey services versus consignment serviceseach given assembly, owing to inclusion of the cost of components and variationsother materials in net sales and cost of goods sold. Variations in the number of turnkey orders for products with high raw material costscompared to consignment orders can lead to significant fluctuations in the Company's operating results. Further, customers' orders can be delayed, rescheduled or canceled at any time, which can significantly impactrevenue levels. However, the operating resultsCompany does not believe that such variations are a meaningful indicator of the Company. The abilityCompany's gross margins. Consignment orders accounted for less than 5% of the Company's revenues for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. 7 In the past, the timing and rescheduling of orders has caused the Company to replaceexperience significant quarterly fluctuations in its revenue and earnings; such delayed or lost sales in a short period of time is not assured.fluctuations may continue. MEXICO AND CHINA OPERATIONS The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Standard Components de Mexico, S.A, a Mexican corporation, is located in Acuna, Coahuila Mexico, a border town across the Rio Grande River from Del Rio, Texas, and is 155 miles west of San Antonio. Standard Components de Mexico, S.A. was incorporated and commenced operation in 1969.1968. The Company's wholly owned subsidiary AbleMex S.A. de C.V., a Mexican corporation, is located in Tijuana, Baja California Mexico, a border town across south of San Diego, California. AbleMex S.A. de C.V. was incorporated and commenced operations in 2000. The Company believes that one of the key benefits to having operations in Mexico is its access to cost-effective labor resources while having geographic proximity to the United States. The Company provides funds for salaries, wages, overhead and capital expenditure items as necessary to operate Standard Components de Mexico, S.A.its wholly-owned Mexican and Chinese subsidiaries. The Company provides funding to Standard Components de Mexico, S.A.its Mexican and Chinese subsidiaries in U.S. dollars, which are exchanged for pesos and RMB as needed. The fluctuation of the pesocurrencies from time to time, without an equal or greater increase in Mexican inflation, has not had a material impact on the financial results of the Company. In fiscal 2004year 2006 the Company paid approximately $9,400,000$12,040,000 to Standard Components de Mexico, S.A.its subsidiaries for services provided. In May 2002 the Company acquired a plant in Acuna, Mexico through seller financing. The loan of $1,950,000 is payable in equal monthly installments of approximately $31,000 over six and a half years at a rate of 7% interest per annum. Prior to acquiring that plant, the Company rented the facility. At April 30, 20042006, approximately $856,000 was outstanding in connection with the Mexican operation hadfinancing of that facility. The Company's wholly owned foreign enterprise SigmaTron China is located in Wujiang, China. Wujiang is located approximately 900 employees. CHINA OPERATIONS15 miles south of Suzhou, China and 60 miles west of Shanghai, China. The Company has entered into an agreement with governmental authorities in the economic development zone of Wujiang, Jiangsu Province, Peoples Republic of China, pursuant to which the Company became the lessee of a parcel of land of approximately nine U.S.100 Chinese acres. The term of the land lease is 50 years. Ayears (Footnote K, contingencies). The Company built a manufacturing plant office space and dormitories were builton this site during fiscal 2004. The manufacturing plant and office space is approximately 80,000 square feet, which can be expanded if conditions require it.require. SigmaTron China operates at this site as the Company's wholly owned foreign enterprise. During the fourth quarter the plant started prototype and pilot production in order to gain customer approval of our processes. Production is planned to slowly ramp up during fiscal 2005. The plant has also started the process of obtaining ISO registration. At April 30, 20042006, this operation had 192 employees. SigmaTron China entered into a loan agreement in April 2005, which provides for a line of credit from the China operationConstruction Bank. The interest rate under the agreement is 5.76% and at April 30, 2006, SigmaTron China had 43 employees.$1,237,753 outstanding under the line of credit. The line of credit is collateralized by the Company's building in Suzhou-Wujiang China and 60 of the 100 Chinese acres leased at the property (Footnote K, contingencies). The loan was paid in full in July 2006. COMPETITION The EMS industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid change. Furthermore, both large and small companies compete in the industry, and many have significantly greater financial resources, more extensive business experience and greater marketing and production capabilities than the Company. The significant competitive factors in this industry include price, quality, service, timeliness, reliability, the ability to source raw components, and manufacturing and technological capabilities. The Company believes it can competitively provide all of these services. In addition, the Company may be operating at a cost disadvantage compared to manufacturers who have greater direct buying power with component suppliers or who have lower cost structures. Current and prospective customers continually evaluate the merits of manufacturing products internally and will from time to time offer manufacturing services to third parties in order to utilize excess capacity. During downturns in the electronics industry, OEMs may become more price sensitive. 8 There can be no assurance that competition from existing or potential competitors will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. The introduction of lower priced competitive products, or significant price reductions by the Company's competitors or significant pricing pressures from its customers could result in price reductions that would adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations, as would the introduction of new technologies which render the Company's manufacturing process technology less competitive or obsolete. 6 CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Standard Components de Mexico, S.A. and AbleMex S.A. de C.V., its wholly owned foreign enterprise Wujiang SigmaTron Electronics Co., LTD. and its procurement branch, SigmaTron Taiwan. The functional currency of the Mexican subsidiaries, Chinese foreign enterprise and Taiwanese procurement branch, is the U.S. dollar. As a result of consolidation and other transactions involving competitors and other companies in the Company's markets, the Company occasionally reviews potential transactions relating to its business, products and technologies. Such transactions could include mergers, acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint ventures, licensing agreements, co-promotion agreements, financing arrangements or other types of transactions. The Company completed one such transaction in July 2005 with the acquisition of Able. In the future, the Company may choose to enter into suchother transactions at any time depending on available sources of financing, and such transactions could have a material impact on the Company, its business or operations. Recent transactions are disclosed in Footnote L of the financial statements included with this Annual Report on Form 10-K. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS The Company's operations are subject to certain foreign, federal, state and local regulatory requirements relating to environmental, waste management, labor and health and safety matters. Management believes that the Company's business is operated in material compliance with all such regulations. TheTo date, the cost to the Company of such compliance to date has not had a material impact on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. However, there can be no assurance that violations will not occur in the future as a result of human error, equipment failure or other causes. TheFurther, the Company cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of environmental legislation or regulatory requirements that could be imposed or how existing or future laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted. Compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, as well as more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies, could require substantial expenditures by the Company and could have a material impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, effective mid-2006 the Company's customers must be in compliance with the European Standard: the "Restriction of Use of Hazardous Substance" directive for all of their products that ship to the European marketplace. The Company has RoHS dedicated manufacturing capabilities at all of its manufacturing operations. BACKLOG The Company's backlog as of April 30, 20042006, was approximately $38,600,000. Backlog consists of contracts or purchase orders with delivery dates scheduled within the next twelve months.$52,875,000. The Company currently expects to ship substantially all of the remaining April 30, 20042006, backlog by the end of the 20052007 fiscal year. Backlog as of April 30, 20032005, totaled approximately $39,000,000.$44,000,000. Variations in the magnitude and duration of contracts and purchase orders received by the Company and delivery requirements generally may result in substantial fluctuations in backlog from period to period. Because customers may cancel or reschedule deliveries, backlog may not be a meaningful indicator of future revenue. 9 EMPLOYEES The Company employed approximately 1,2552,140 people as of April 30, 2004,2006, including 44106 engaged in engineering or engineering related services, 1,1101,805 in manufacturing and 101229 in administrative and marketing functions.

ITEM 1 A. RISK FACTORS In addition toThe following risk factors should be read carefully in connection with evaluating our business and the other risks identified herein, the Company's business is subject toforward-looking information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any of the following risks:risks could materially adversely affect our business, operations, industry or financial position or our future financial performance. While the Company believes it has identified and discussed below the key risk factors affecting its business, there may be additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known or that are not currently believed to be significant that may adversely affect its business, operations, industry, financial position and financial performance in the future. THE COMPANY'S ABILITY TO SECURE AND MAINTAIN SUFFICIENT CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS IS KEY TO ITS CONTINUED OPERATIONS. The ability of the Company to secure and maintain sufficient credit arrangements is key to its continued operations. The Company entered into an Amended Loan and Security Agreement in January 2004,July 2005, which 7 providesprovided for a revolving credit facility. The maximum borrowing limit under the amended revolving credit facility is limited to the lesser of: (i) $13,000,000$17,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to the sum of 85% of the receivable borrowing base and the lesser of $6,500,000$8,500,000 or varying percentages of the inventory base. The Amended Loan and Security Agreement expires on SeptemberJune 30, 20052008, and is subject toincludes certain financial covenants. The Amended Loan and 10 Security Agreement also provides a four year term loan in the amount of $3,000,000. Interest on the term loan accrues at 5.75% and interest only is due each quarter through June 30, 2006. Quarterly principal payments of $250,000 are due beginning June 30, 2006. In September 2005 the Company further amended the above described credit facility to increase the revolving credit facility from $17,000,000 to $22,000,000. The amended revolving credit facility is limited to the lesser of: (i) $22,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to the sum of 85% of the receivable borrowing base and the lesser of $11,000,000 or varying percentages of the inventory base. At April 30, 20042006, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants and had no borrowings of $17,924,000 outstanding under this line of credit. On June 25, 2004 SMTU amended itscredit and a term note of $3,000,000 outstanding. SigmaTron China entered into a loan and security agreement ("Agreement") covering its revolvingin April 2005, which provides for a line of credit facility. Underfrom the amended terms of the Agreement, the maximum borrowing limit is the lesser of (i) $3,000,000, or (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (A) eighty-five percent (85%) of the net amount eligible accounts receivable outstanding at such date; (B) fifty percent (50%) of eligible inventory at such date and (C) fifty percent (50%) of the net amount of foreign Solectron eligible accounts receivable outstanding at such date; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of advances for eligible inventory shall not exceed one million five hundred thousand dollars ($1,500,000) at any time and the aggregate amount of advances for foreign Solectron eligible accounts receivable shall not exceed five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) at any time.China Construction Bank. The amended revolving credit facility matures on July 31, 2005. Borrowingsinterest rate under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the bank's prime plus 2.0% (6.0%agreement is 5.76% and at April 30, 2004)2006, SigmaTron China had $1,237,500 outstanding under the line of credit. The line of credit is collateralized by the Company's building in Suzhou-Wujiang China and 60 of the 100 Chinese acres leased at the property (Footnote K, contingencies). The Company is obligatedanticipates credit facilities, cash flow from operations and leasing resources will be adequate to pay an annual commitment fee of 1/4 of 1.0% onmeet its working capital requirements in fiscal year 2007. In the average daily unused portion ofevent the revolving credit facility. The available portion of the revolving credit facility at April 30, 2004 was $132,798. In August 1999,business grows rapidly or the Company entered into a guaranty agreement with SMTU's lender to guaranteeconsiders an acquisition, additional financing resources could be necessary in the obligation of SMTU under its revolving credit facility to a maximum of $2,000,000 plus interest and related costs associated with the enforcement of the guaranty. In connection with the guaranty agreement, one of the limited partners of SMTU and a Vice President of SMTU have each executed a guaranty to the lender to reimbursecurrent or future fiscal years. There is no assurance that the Company for upwill be able to $500,000 of payments made byobtain equity or debt financing at acceptable terms in the Company under its guaranty to the lender in excess of $1,000,000. In addition, the limited partner has agreed to indemnify the Company for 50% of all payments made on behalf of SMTU to the lender. The limited partner's obligation to the Company under the indemnity is reduced dollar for dollar to the extent the limited partner would otherwise be obligated to pay more than $1,000,000 as a result of his guaranty to the lender. The amended revolving credit facility expires on July 31, 2005 and no liability has been recorded by the Company related to its guaranty.future. THE COMPANY EXPERIENCES VARIABLE OPERATING RESULTS. The Company's results of operations have varied and may continue to fluctuate significantly from period to period, including on a quarterly basis. Consequently, results of operations in any period should not be considered indicative of the results for any future period, and fluctuations in operating results may also result in fluctuations in the price of the Company's Common Stock.common stock. The Company's quarterly and annual results may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. These factors include: - Changes in sales mix to customers - Changes in availability and cost of components - Volume of customer orders relative to capacity - Market demand and acceptance of our customers' products - Price erosion within the EMS marketplace - Capital equipment requirements needed to remain technologically competitive THE COMPANY'S CUSTOMER BASE IS CONCENTRATED. Sales to the Company's five largest customers accounted for 68%64%, 59%63% and 51%68% of net sales for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, 2003respectively. Further, the Company's two largest customers accounted for 30.1% and 2002, respectively.19.7% of net sales, respectively, for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. Significant reduction in sales to any of the Company's major customers or the loss of a major customer could have a material impact on the Company's operations. If the Company cannot replace canceled or reduced orders, sales will decline, which could have a material impact on the results of operations. 8Although the Company believes its relationships with its large customers are good, the Company generally does not enter into long-term contracts in connection with the sale of its goods and services. There can be no assurance that the Company will retain any or all of its large customers. This risk may be further complicated by pricing pressures and intense competition prevalent in our industry. 11 THERE IS VARIABILITY IN THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE COMPANY'S CUSTOMERS. The Company does not generally obtain long-term purchase contracts. The timing of purchase orders placed by the Company's customers is affected by a number of factors, including variation in demand for the customers' products, regulatory changes affecting customer industries, customer attempts to manage inventory, changes in the customers' manufacturing strategies and customers' technical problems or issues. Many of these factors are outside the control of the Company. THE COMPANY AND ITS CUSTOMERS MUSTMAY BE UNABLE TO KEEP CURRENT WITH THE INDUSTRY'S TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES. The market for the Company's manufacturing services is characterized by rapidly changing technology and continuing product development. The future success of the Company's business will depend in large part upon its customers' ability to maintain and enhance their technological capabilities, develop and market manufacturing services which meet changing customer needs and successfully anticipate or respond to technological changes in manufacturing processes on a cost-effective and timely basis. Effective mid-2006 the CompanyCompany's customers must be in compliance with the European Standard; The Restriction of Use of Hazardous Substances directive ("RoHS")RoHS for all products shipped to the European marketplace. The purpose of the directive is to restrict the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment and to contribute to the environmentally sound recovery and disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment. The Company is in the initial stages of working in conjunction with its suppliers and customers to prepare for the implementation of lead free wave solder and reflow systems.equipment waste. In addition, electronic component manufacturers must produce electronic components which are lead free.lead-free. The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company's production process. Customer'sCustomers' specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single source or a small number of suppliers. There is no assurance these suppliers will comply with RoHS. The inability to utilize any such suppliers could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. THE COMPANY HASFACES INTENSE INDUSTRY COMPETITION.COMPETITION AND DOWNWARD PRICING PRESSURES. The EMS industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition. Many of the Company's competitors have substantially greater experience, as well as greater manufacturing, purchasing, marketing and financial resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that competition from existing or potential competitors will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. The introduction of lower priced competitive products, significant price reductions by the Company's competitors or significant pricing pressures from its customers could adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations. THE COMPANY HAS FOREIGN OPERATIONS THAT MAY POSE ADDITIONAL RISKS. A substantial part of the Company's manufacturing operations is based in Mexico. Therefore, the Company's business and results of operations are dependent upon numerous related factors, including the stability of the Mexican economy, the political climate in Mexico and Mexico's relations with the United States, prevailing worker wages, the legal authority of the Company to own and operate its business in Mexico and the ability to identify, hire, train and retain qualified personnel and operating management in Mexico. The Company has opened an operation in China in order to better support and grow its customer base. It is uncertain whether the China operation will have a material impact, either positive or negative, on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The success of the operation is dependent on the Company's ability to obtain new business; its ability to hire and train qualified personnelpersonnel; and to implement an efficient manufacturing environment. Other factors could have a material impact on the business, including the Chinese political climate and its relations with the United States, stability of the Chinese economy and the need for additional capital to expand operations in China, and effects of public health issues (e.g., Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome or SARS).China. The Company obtains many of its materials and components through its office in Taipei, Taiwan and, therefore, the Company's access to these materials and components is dependent on the continued success of its Asian suppliers. 12 INABILITY TO MANAGE GROWTH. The Company may not effectively manage its growth and successfully integrate the management and operations of its recent Able acquisition. Acquisitions involve significant financial and operating risks that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. DISCLOSURE AND INTERNAL CONTROLS. The Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, do not believe that its disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. Controls can provide only reasonable assurance that the procedures will meet the control objectives. The limitations include errors and mistakes can be made, including faulty judgments in decision-making. Further, controls can be circumvented by collusion of two or more people or by management override of controls. Because of the limitations of a cost effective control system, error and fraud may occur and not be detected. THERE IS A RISK OF FLUCTUATION OF VARIOUS CURRENCIES INTEGRAL TO THE COMPANY'S OPERATIONS. The Company purchases some of its material components and funds some of its operations in foreign 9 currencies. From time to time the currencies fluctuate against the U.S. dollar. Such fluctuations could have a measurable impact on the Company's operations and performance. These fluctuations are expected to continue. The Company does not utilize derivatives or hedge foreign currencies to reduce the risk of such fluctuations. THE AVAILABILITY OF RAW COMPONENTS MAY AFFECT THE COMPANY'S OPERATIONS. The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company's production process. Certain of these components are available only from single sources or a limited number of suppliers. In addition, a customer's specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single source or a small number of suppliers. The loss of any such suppliers or increases in component cost could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. The Company could operate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater direct buying power from suppliers. THE COMPANY IS DEPENDENT ON KEY PERSONNEL. The Company depends significantly on its President and Chief Executive Officer, Gary R. Fairhead, and on other executive officers. The loss of the services of any of these key employees could have a material impact on the Company's business and results of operations. In addition, despite significant competition, continued growth and expansion of the Company's contract manufacturingEMS business will require that it attract, motivate and retain additional skilled and experienced personnel. The inability to satisfy such requirements could have a negative impact on the Company's ability to remain competitive in the future. FAVORABLE LABOR RELATIONS ISARE IMPORTANT TO THE COMPANY. The Company currently has labor union contracts with certainits employees constituting approximately 70% of its employees.workforce. Although the Company believes its labor relations are good, any labor disruptions, whether union-related or otherwise, could significantly impair the Company's business, substantially increase the Company's costs or otherwise have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS COULD SUBJECT THE COMPANY TO LIABILITY. The Company is subject to a variety of environmental regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous chemicals used during its manufacturing process. Any failure by the Company to comply with present or future regulations could subject it to future liabilities or the suspension of production which could have a material negative impact on the Company's results of operations. 13 THE PRICE OF THE COMPANY'S STOCK IS VOLATILE. The price of the Company's Common Stockcommon stock historically has experienced significant volatility due to fluctuations in the Company's revenue and earnings, other factors relating to the Company's operations, the market's changing expectations for the Company's growth, overall equity market conditions and other factors unrelated to the Company's operations. In addition, the limited float of the Company's Common Stockcommon stock and the limited number of market makers also affect the volatility of the Company's Common Stock.common stock. Such fluctuations are expected to continue. THE COMPANY HAS MADE INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO AFFILIATES. In August 1999, the Company entered into a guaranty agreement with SMTU's lender to guarantee the obligation of SMTU under its revolving line of credit to a maximum of $2,000,000 plus interest and related costs associated with the enforcement of the guaranty. In connection with the guaranty agreement, one of the limited partners of SMTU and a Vice President of SMTU have each executed a guaranty to the lender to reimburse the Company for up to $500,000 of payments made by the Company under its guaranty to the lender in excess of $1,000,000. In addition, the limited partner has agreed to indemnify the Company for 50% of all payments made on behalf of SMTU to the lender. The limited partner's obligation to the Company under the indemnity is reduced dollar for dollar to the extent the limited partner would otherwise be obligated to pay more than $1,000,000 as a result of his guaranty to the lender. The amended revolving line of credit expires on July 31, 2005 and no liability has been recorded by the Company related to its guaranty. 10 The Company also has guaranteed lease obligations of approximately $114,000 for SMTU. The Company has been indemnified by one of the other limited partners in the amount of $57,000 for the guaranteed lease obligations and no liability has been recorded by the Company related to its guaranty. The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Financial Interpretation No. 46R ("FIN 46R"), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities as of November 1, 2003 as it relates to its 42.5% owned affiliate SMTU and consolidated SMTU in the accompanying financial statements and footnotes to the financial statements from the earliest date reported. BEING A PUBLIC COMPANY INCREASES OURTHE COMPANY'S ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Sarbanes-Oxley"), as well as rules subsequently implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and listing requirements subsequently adopted by Nasdaq in response to Sarbanes-Oxley, have required changes in corporate governance practices, internal control policies and audit committee practices of public companies. These new rules, regulations, and requirements have increased the company's legal, financial compliance and administrative costs, and made many other activities more time consuming and costly. Specifically, the Company's ability to become compliant with Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404, Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, may be very costly. These new rules and regulations have also made it more difficult for the Company to obtain director and officer liability insurance. These new rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on its audit committee. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES At April 30, 2006, the Company had manufacturing facilities located in Elk Grove Village, Illinois; Hayward, California and Acuna and Tijuana, Mexico and Wujiang, China.

The Hayward, California and Tijuana, Mexico properties and a portion of the Del Rio, Texas property are occupied pursuant to leases of the premises. The lease agreements for the Nevada, Texas and California properties expire October 2009, December 2015 and September 2010, respectively. The Alabama space is provided under a service agreement. The Company's manufacturing facilities located in Acuna, Mexico and Elk Grove Village, Illinois are owned by the Company, except for a portion of the facility in Mexico, which is leased. The properties in Acuna, Mexico and Illinois are financed under separate mortgage agreements, which mature in November 2008. The Company, through an agent, leases the purchasing and engineering office in Taipei, Taiwan to coordinate Far East purchasing and design activities. The Company is considering expanding its Tijuana and Acuna manufacturing operations during fiscal 2007. All facilities are adequately insured. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On May 25, 2001, Nancy Messina, a former employee of the Company, filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, asserting claims of sexual harassment and gender discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and 15 claims of violation of the Federal Equal Pay Act. In November 2005 the Company and the plaintiff settled the lawsuit upon the Company's payment of a nominal amount to be applied to the plaintiff's legal expenses. From time to time the Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims or investigations that are incidental to the conduct of the Company's business. In future periods, the Company could be subjected to cash cost or non-cash charges to earnings if any of these matters is resolved on unfavorable terms. However, although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of the particular claim, the Company does not expect that these legal proceedings or claims will have any material adverse impact on its future consolidated financial position or results of operations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In addition to historical financial information, this discussion of the business of the Company and other Items in this Annual Report on Form 10-K contain forward-looking statements concerning the Company's business or results of operations. Words such as "continue," "will," "expects," "believe," "plans," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of management of the Company. Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the Company's plans, actions and actual results could differ materially. Such statements should be evaluated in the context of the risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company's business, including our continued dependence on certain significant customers; the continued market acceptance of products and services offered by the Company and its customers; pricing pressures from our customers, suppliers and the market; the activities of competitors, some of which may have greater financial or other resources than the Company; the variability of our operating results; the variability of our customers' requirements; the availability and cost of necessary components and materials; the Company's ability to continue to produce products that are in compliance with the European Standard of "Restriction of Use of Hazardous Substance ("RoHS") by mid-2006; the ability of the Company and our customers to keep current with technological changes within our industries; regulatory compliance; the continued availability and sufficiency of our credit arrangements; changes in U.S., Mexican, Chinese or Taiwanese regulations affecting the Company's business; the continue stability of the U.S., Mexican, Chinese and Taiwanese economic systems, labor and political conditions; and the ability of 17 the Company to manage its growth, including its expansion into China and its integration of the Able Electronic Corporation ("Able") operation acquired in July 2005. These and other factors which may affect the Company's future business and results of operations are identified throughout the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and risk factors contained herein and may be detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These statements speak as of the date of this report and the Company undertakes no obligation to update such statements in light of future events or otherwise. OVERVIEW The Company operates in one business segment as an independent provider of EMS, which includes printed circuit board assemblies and completely assembled (box-build) electronic products. In connection with the production of assembled products, the Company also provides services to its customers, including (1) automatic and manual assembly and testing of products; (2) material sourcing and procurement; (3) design, manufacturing and test engineering support; (4) warehousing and shipment services; and (5) assistance in obtaining product approval from governmental and other regulatory bodies. The Company provides these manufacturing services through an international network of facilities located in the North America, China and Taiwan. As the demand for electronic products has continued to increase over the past several months, the lead-time for many components has increased. Pricing for some components and related commodities has escalated due to the increased demand and the transition to RoHS components and may continue to increase in the future periods. The impact of these price increases could have a negative effect on the Company's gross margins and operating results. The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company's production process. Certain of these components are available only from single sources or a limited number of suppliers. In addition, a customer's specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single source or a small number of suppliers. The loss of any such suppliers could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, and the Company may be required to operate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater direct buying power from suppliers. The Company does not enter into purchase agreements with major or single-source suppliers. The Company believes that ad-hoc negotiations with its suppliers provides flexibility, given that the Company's orders are based on the needs of its customers, which constantly change. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Sarbanes-Oxley"), as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and new listing requirements subsequently adopted by Nasdaq in response to Sarbanes-Oxley, have required changes in corporate governance practices, internal control policies and audit committee practices of public companies. These new rules, regulations, and requirements have significantly increased the company's legal expenses, financial compliance and administrative costs, and made many other activities more time consuming and costly.costly and diverted the attention of senior management. These new rules and regulations have also made it more difficult and more expensive for the Company to obtain director and officer liability insurance. These new rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members offor our board of directors, particularly to serve on itsour audit committee. ITEM 2.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2002,2006. In the past, the timing and rescheduling of orders have caused the Company received a Charge of Discrimination from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission regarding a former employee claiming unspecified damages resultingto experience significant quarterly fluctuations in a lawsuit being filed against the Company. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the chargesits revenues and is defending itself vigorously in this action. Although the charges do not specify a dollar amount, based on information presently available to the Company, the Company believes that the resolution of these charges will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of the operations of the Company. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2003, a lawsuit was filed by the liquidating trustee of Circuit Systems, Inc. ("CSI") against Gary R. Fairhead, President and CEO of the Company and a former director of CSI ("Fairhead"), and other former directors of CSI, alleging, in part, that Fairhead had breached his fiduciary duty to CSI and its stockholders in a number of respects. Fairhead joined the CSI Board in 1995, resigning in early 2001. Fairhead has indicated to the Company that the Company may have a duty under certain circumstances to (i) indemnify him against all expenses, including legal fees, judgments and amounts paid in settlement actually incurred by him in connection with the CSI lawsuit, and (ii) advance his costs incurred in defending against these claims.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONScontinue. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICESPOLICIES Management Estimates and Uncertainties - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include depreciation and amortization periods, the allowance for doubtful accounts and reserves for inventory.inventory and valuation of goodwill. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. Revenue Recognition - Revenues from sales of product including the Company's electronic manufacturing service business are recognized when the product is shipped.shipped to the customer. In general it is the Company's policy to recognize revenue and related costs when the order has been shipped from our facilities, which is also usually the same point that title passes under the terms of the purchase order. Periodicallyorder except for consignment inventory. Consignment inventory is held onshipped from the Company to an independent warehouse for storage or shipped directly to the customer and stored in a segregated part of the customer's own facility. Upon the customer's request for inventory, the consignment and revenueinventory is recognized whenshipped to the product is consumedcustomer if the inventory was stored offsite or transferred from the segregated part of the customer's facility for consumption, or use, by the Company's customer. BasedThe Company recognizes revenue upon such transfer. The Company does not earn a fee for storing the consignment inventory. The Company provides a ninety (90) day warranty for workmanship only and does not have any installation, acceptance or sales incentives, although the Company has negotiated extended warranty terms in certain instances. The Company assembles and tests assemblies based on customers' specifications. Historically the amount of returns for workmanship issues has been de minimus under the Company's history of providing contract manufacturing services, we believe that collectibility is reasonably assured. 14 standard or extended warranties. Any returns for workmanship issues received after each period end are accrued in the respective financial statements. Inventories - Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. The Company establishes inventory reserves for valuation, shrinkage, and excess and obsolete inventory. The Company records provisions for inventory shrinkage based on historical experience to account for unmeasured usage or loss. Actual results differing from these estimates could significantly affect the Company's inventories and cost of products sold. The Company records provisions for excess and obsolete inventories for the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based on assumptions about future product demand and market conditions. Actual product demand or market conditions could be different than that projected by management. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment including its investment and assets related to its affiliate SMTU whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset, if any, exceeds its fair market value. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 144, which establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. Goodwill and Other Intangibles - The Company adopted on June 1, 2001, SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations". Under SFAS No. 141, a purchaser must allocate the total consideration paid in a business combination to the acquired tangible and intangible assets based on their fair value. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" effective January 1, 2002. Goodwill represents the purchase price in excess of the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", requires the Company to assess goodwill for impairment at least annually in the absence of an indicator of possible impairment and immediately upon an indicator of possible impairment. During the fourth quarter of 2006 the Company 19 completed its annual assessment of impairment regarding the goodwill recorded. That assessment, supported by independent appraisals did not identify any impairment as of April 30, 2006. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ConsolidationIn June 2006 FASB Interpretation 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" was issued which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of variablea tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest entities - FIN 46Rand penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. This Interpretation is an interpretationeffective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and earlier application of the provisions of this Interpretation is encouraged if the enterprise has not yet issued financial statements, including interim financial statements, in the period this Interpretation is adopted. The Company has not yet determined the impact of FASB Interpretation 48 on its financial statements. On June 1, 2005, the FASB issued Statement No. 154, Accounting Research BulletinChanges and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 5120 and revisesFASB Statement No. 3 (SFAS 154). The statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principles, and changes the requirements for consolidation by business enterprisesaccounting for and reporting of variable interest entities. FIN 46R applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entitiesa change in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in the first fiscal year or interim period ending after December 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest acquired before February 1, 2003. FIN 46R applies to public enterprises as of the beginning of the applicable interim or annual period and to nonpublic enterprises as of the end of the applicable annual period. It may be applied prospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date on which it is first applied or by restating previously issued financial statements for one or more years with a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the beginning of the first year restated.accounting principles. The Company adopted FIN 46RSFAS 154 at December 31, 2005, there is no material change to the Company's operating results as a result of Novemberthis adoption. In December 2004 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123(R)"). The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) on May 1, 2003 as it relates2006. SFAS 123(R) requires the Company to its 42.5% owned affiliate SMTU.measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant date fair value. The accompanyingcost will be recognized in financial statements includeas an expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service. The Company has determined that the adoption SFAS 123(R) will not have a significant impact on its financial position, and results of operations, EPS and cash flows for SMTU, with the remaining 57.5% reflected as a "minority interest." Previously the Company had reflected such investment on the equity method. The Company adopted the provision of FIN 46R for its investment in SMTU and has restated all periods presented in the accompanying financial statements and footnotes to the financial statements. CAUTIONARY NOTE: The following discussion provides an analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations, and should be read in conjunction with the Selected Consolidated Financial Data and the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company, and the Notes thereto, appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as in conjunction with the cautionary note concerning forward-looking information which appears at the beginning of Item 1 and the risk factors which appear at the end of Item 1. OVERVIEW The Company operates in one business segment as an independent provider of EMS, which includes printed circuit board assemblies and completely assembled (boxbuild) electronic products. In connection with the production of its assembled products the Company provides services to its customers including (1) automatic and manual assembly and testing of products; (2) material sourcing and procurement; (3) design, manufacturing and test engineering support; (4) warehousing and shipment services; and (5) assistance in obtaining product approval from governmental and other regulatory bodies. The Company provides these manufacturing services through an international network of facilities located in North America, China and Taiwan. 15 As services provided by the EMS industry have continued to increase over the past several months lead-time for components have increased. Pricing for components and related commodities has escalated in the short term and may continue to increase in the future periods. The impact of these price increases could have a negative material effect on the Company's gross margins and operating results. The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company's production process. Certain of these components are available only from single sources or a limited number of suppliers. In addition, a customer's specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single source or a small number of suppliers. The loss of any such suppliersflows. However, SFAS 123(R) could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations,operation if additional options are granted. On December 21, 2004, FSP FAS 109-2, "Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 ("Act")," was issued. FSP FAS 109-2 provides companies additional time, beyond the financial reporting period during which the Act took effect, to evaluate the Act's impact on a company's plan for reinvestment or repatriation of certain foreign earnings for purposes of applying Statement 109. FSP FAS 109-2 was effective upon issuance. Based on the Company's analysis of the repatriation provision of the Act, although not yet finalized, it is unlikely that the Company may be requiredhad any foreign earnings to operate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater direct buying power from suppliers. Sales volume can be misleading as an indication ofrepatriate, and accordingly, the Company's financial performance. Gross profit margins can vary considerably among customers and products dependingstatements do not reflect any provisions for taxes on unremitted foreign earnings. The impact on the typeCompany has not been material. In November 2004 the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, "Inventory Costs - an amendment of services rendered byARB No. 43, Chapter 4." This statement amends the Company. Variationsguidance in Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 43, Charter 4, "Inventory Pricing," to clarify the numberaccounting for abnormal amounts of turnkey orders compared to consignment orders can lead to significant fluctuations inidle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage) and requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the Company's revenue levels and margins. Further, generally customers' orders can be delayed, rescheduled or canceled at any time, which can significantly impact the operating resultscriterion of the Company. In addition, the ability to replace such delayed or lost sales in a short period of time cannot be assured. As a manufacturing company, the Company includes all fixed manufacturing overhead in cost of products sold."abnormal." The inclusionstatement also requires that allocation of fixed manufacturing overhead in cost of goods sold magnifies the fluctuations in gross profit margin percentages caused by fluctuations in net sales and capital expenditures. Specifically, fluctuations in the mix of consignment and turnkey contracts could have an effect onproduction overheads to the cost of goods soldconversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The provisions of this statement are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 (as of May 1, 2006, for the Company) and are to be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe the resulting gross profit asimpact will be material. On October 22, 2004, the President signed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 ("the Act"). The Act provides a percentagededuction from income from qualified domestic production activities, which will be phased in from 2005 through 2010. In return, the Act also provides for a two-year phase-out (except for certain pre-existing binding contracts) of net sales. Consignment orders requirethe existing Extraterritorial Income ("ETI") exclusion tax benefit for foreign sales which the World Trade Organization ("WTO") ruled was an illegal export subsidy. The European Union ("EU") believes that the Act fails to adequately repeal the illegal export subsidies because of the transitional 20 provisions and has asked the WTO to review whether these transitional provisions are in compliance with their prior ruling. Additionally, the Act creates a temporary incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad by providing an 85% dividend received deduction for certain dividends from controlled foreign corporations. The impact on the Company to perform manufacturing services on components and other materials supplied by a customer, and the Company charges only for its labor, overhead and manufacturing costs, plus a profit. In the case of turnkey orders, the Company provides, in addition to manufacturing services, the components and other materials used in assembly. Turnkey contracts, in general, have a higher dollar volume of sales for each given assembly, owing to inclusion of the cost of components and other materials in net sales and cost of goods sold. However, turnkey contracts typically have lower gross margins due to the large material content. Historically, more than 90% of the Company's sales havehas not been from turnkey orders. In the past, the timing and rescheduling of orders has caused the Company to experience significant quarterly fluctuations in its revenues and earnings, and the Company expects such fluctuations to continue.material. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 20042006 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 20032005 Net sales decreased 5%increased 32.3% to $100,494,122$124,786,476 in fiscal 2004year 2006 from $105,824,257$94,312,573 in the prior year. The Company's sales decreasedincreased in the consumerindustrial electronics, gamingfitness, life sciences, semiconductor and appliance marketplaces during fiscal year 2006 as compared to the prior year. The increase in sales volume in the appliance and fitness industries during fiscal 2004.was partially offset by price reductions to customers. The Company continuedanticipates pricing pressures from customers will continue in fiscal year 2007. The increase in the industrial electronics, life sciences and semiconductor industries is primarily due to experience sales growth withinto new customers as the appliance marketplace.results of acquisition of Able. The acquisition of Able has allowed the Company to make strides towards achieving four objectives: (1) to further diversify its markets, capabilities and customer base, (2) adding a third low-cost manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico, (3) creating an opportunity to consolidate the California operations into one facility, and (4) to generate incremental revenue from Able's customers as they become familiar with the Company's broader array of services. The Company's concentrationsales in a specificparticular industry increasesare driven by the Company's risk due to businessfluctuating forecasts and economic factorsend-market demand of the customers within that specific industry. TheSales to customers are subject to variations from period to period depending on customer order terminations, the life cycle of customer products and product transition. There can be no assurance that sales levels or gross margins will remain stable in future periods. Sales to the Company's five largest customers accounted for 68%64% and 62%63% of net sales for fiscal years 2006 and 2005, respectively. Gross profit decreased to $14,800,099 or 11.9% of net sales in fiscal 2004year 2006 compared to $17,958,154 or 19.0% of net sales in the prior period. The decrease in the Company's gross profit is the result of pricing pressures within the EMS industry, an increase in manufacturing supplies and 2003, respectively. Salescomponent pricing and inefficiencies related to the Company's largest customers can vary from period to period.integration of the Able operation acquired in July 2005. The consolidation of the Fremont and Able Hayward locations was completed in March 2006. The Company believes operational efficiencies will improve at both the Hayward and Tijuana manufacturing facilities during fiscal year 2007. In addition, the Company generally does not obtain long-term purchase contracts. Any significant changeis currently expanding its Tijuana manufacturing operation and will transfer specific production from Hayward to Tijuana. The Company believes this realignment of production will assist in orders from these customers could materially impactincreasing the Company's operating results. Gross profit decreased to $19,115,930margins for the Hayward and Tijuana operations. Selling and administrative expenses increased in fiscal 2004 from $19,919,683year 2006 to $10,925,646 or 8.8% of net sales compared to $10,076,082 or 10.6% of net sales in the prior year.fiscal year 2005. The reduction in absolute dollars of gross profitincrease is primarily due to lower sales volume for the fiscal year ended 2004. Gross profit increased as a percent to net sales to 19.0% compared to 18.8% in fiscal 2003. The overall increase as a percentage is due to product life cycles, product mix and component pricing. The Company's gross profit margin can vary considerably due to price erosion within the EMS industry, product mix, component pricing, overall capacity utilization, product life cycle, the mix of turnkey and consignment orders and labor cost. There can be no assurance gross profit margins will not decreaseadditional personnel in the future. 16 Sellingsales department and increased insurance costs incurred in conjunction with the acquisition of Able. The increase in selling and administrative expenses decreasedis partially offset by a $1,053,000 reduction in bonus expense. The Company anticipates it will incur additional professional fees related to Sarbanes-Oxley, specifically Section 404, Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Interest expense increased to $1,421,455 in fiscal 2004year 2006 compared to $9,664,903 from $10,048,229$283,137 in fiscal 2003.year 2005.

The Company anticipates administrative expenses and professional fees in conjunction with Sarbanes-Oxley compliance will increase significantly in future periods.rising interest rates. Interest expense decreasedfor fiscal year 2007 is expected to $239,792 from $847,846. The decrease is primarily attributedbe comparable to the reductionamount of interest expense recorded in the loan balance of the Company's credit facility and lower interest rates.fiscal year 2006 or possibly higher. In fiscal 2004year 2006 tax expense from continuing operations was $3,550,038,$935,589 which resulted in an effective rate of 39.6%32.7% compared to $3,251,511$3,173,635 in income tax expense and an effective rate of 36.2%38.9% in fiscal 2003. Net income for fiscal 2004 was $5,405,732, which resulted in basic earnings per share of $1.58 and dilutive earnings per share of $1.53. Net income for fiscal 2003 was $5,714,924. Basic and dilutive earnings per share were $1.98 and $1.70, respectively for fiscal 2003. FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2003 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2002 Net sales increased 3.4% to $105,824,257year 2005. The effective tax rate in fiscal 2003 from $102,292,588year 2006 has decreased compared to prior periods due to income earned in China. The Company has tax incentives related to its wholly owned foreign enterprise in China. The Company is currently using an estimate to calculate the amount of profits for tax purposes generated in China. 21 In June 2005 the Company closed on the sale of its Las Vegas, Nevada operation. The Las Vegas facility operated as a complete EMS center specializing in the prior year.assembly of electronic products and cables for a broad range of customers primarily in the gaming industry. The primary reasoneffective date of the transaction was May 30, 2005. The transaction was structured as an asset sale, and included a $2,000,000 cash payment to the Company for the increase in sales was due to the increased sales volume in the appliance market.

Variations in the numberfirst quarter of turnkey orders compared to consignment orders can lead to significant fluctuations infiscal year 2006 and included a gain on the Company's revenue levels and margins. Further, generally, customers' orders can be delayed, rescheduled or canceled at any time, which can significantly impact the operating resultstransaction of the Company. In addition, the ability to replace such delayed or lost sales in a short period of time cannot be assured. Gross profit increased to $19,919,683 in fiscal 2003 compared to $11,529,270 in fiscal 2002.approximately $311,000. The increase in gross profit is primarily related to higher revenue volume and increased capacity utilization. Other factors contributing to the increase in gross profit include product mix, labor cost and component pricing. Gross profit can vary significantly from quarter to quarter. Management continues to re-evaluate and align its overhead structure with current customer requirements. Selling and administrative expenses increased from $8,790,341 or 8.6% of net sales in fiscal 2002 to $10,048,229 or 9.5% of net sales in fiscal 2003. The increase is primarily due to an increase in insurance and bad debt expense and bonus accruals, whichgain was partially offset by a reductionloss of approximately $383,000 on discontinued operations for the Las Vegas operation for the period ended April 30, 2006.

Financial statement schedules not listed above are omitted because they are not applicable or required. F-1 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS SIGMATRON INTERNATIONAL, INC. ELK GROVE, ILLINOIS We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of SigmaTron International, Inc. as of April 30, 2006 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements and schedule. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of SigmaTron International, Inc. at April 30, 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/ BDO Seidman, LLP Chicago, Illinois July 7, 2006 F-2 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM Board of Directors and Stockholders SigmaTron International, Inc.

RESTRICTED CASH Restricted cash represents amounts held in escrow as it relates to the acquisition of the Company's corporate headquarters and midwestern manufacturing facility. The amounts become unrestricted upon settlement of all matters related to the acquisition of the facility. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from companies in the consumer electronics, gaming, fitness, industrial electronics, life sciences, semiconductor, telecommunications, home appliancesappliance and automotive industries. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition, and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable are due in accordance with agreed upon terms, and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payments terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company's previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS The Company's allowance for doubtful accounts related to receivables not expected to be collected from our customers. This allowance is based on management's assessment of specific customer balances, considering the age of receivables and financial stability of the customer and a five year average of prior uncollectible amounts. If there is an adverse change in the financial condition of the Company's customers, or if actual defaults are higher than provided for, an addition to the allowance may be necessary. INVENTORIES Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. The inventory includes an allocation of labor and overhead, including direct and indirect labor, freight and other overhead costs. The Company establishes inventory reserves for valuation, shrinkage, and excess and obsolete inventory. The Company records provisions for inventory shrinkage based on historical experience to account for unmeasured usage or loss. Actual results differing from these estimates could significantly affect the Company's inventories and cost of products sold. The Company records provisions for excess and obsolete inventories for the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based on assumptions about future product demand and market conditions. Actual product demand or market conditions could be different than projected by management.

INCOME TAXES Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be realized. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. The computation of the diluted earnings per share is similar to the basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued. Approximately 3,100 and 33,100 shares were anti-dilutive for the years ended April 30, 2005, and 2006, respectively.

This particular contract covered the 40 Chinese acres of land that was adjacent to 60 Chinese acres of land for which the Company had already signed a separate land use rights contract. For the 40 acre parcel, the Company paid the transfer fee for the land and subsequently built a dormitory, canteen and power station on the land. In December 2004 the Company received an administration penalty notice of approximately $16,000 from the Wujiang Land Resources Bureau which stated that the Company was occupying the 40 acres without its permission. Under Chinese law the Wujiang Land Resources Bureau may seek penalties for this violation, which includes one or more of the following: 1) levying a fine, 2) confiscating any Company property on the land and 3) requiring the land to be returned. The Company has not received any other administrative notifications other than the penalty notice. The Company estimates the value of the land and building to be $1,100,000 to $1,200,000. The Company received a letter from the Business Development Department of Wujiang Developing District under the Management Committee of Wujiang Developing District which stated that the Company acted properly and that it will indemnify the Company against any penalties assessed against it by the Wujiang Land Resources Bureau. On January 5, 2005, the Company paid the penalty which was assessed against it by the Wujiang Land Resources Bureau. Prior to its payment, the Wujiang Financial Bureau paid the Company the amount of the fine, which is consistent with the terms of the indemnity letter. The Company anticipates the issue will be resolved with the Wujiang Land Resources Bureau without any liability to the Company. NOTE L - STRATEGIC TRANSACTIONS In July 2005 the Company closed on the purchase of all of the outstanding stock of Able, a company headquartered in Hayward California and its wholly owned subsidiary, AbleMex S.A. de C.V., located in Tijuana, Mexico. Able is an ISO 9001:2000 certified EMS company serving Original Equipment Manufacturers in the life sciences, telecommunications and industrial electronics industries. The acquisition of Able has allowed the Company to make strides towards achieving four objectives: (1) to further diversify its markets, capabilities and customer base, (2) adding a third low-cost manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico, (3) creating an opportunity to consolidate the California operations into one facility, and (4) to generate incremental revenue from Able's customers as they become familiar with the Company's broader array of services. The effective date of the transaction was July 1, 2005. Able was merged into the Company beginning in November 2005 and operates as a division of the Company. The purchase price was approximately $16,800,000 and was recorded as a stock purchase transaction in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006.

As a result of the redemptionpurchase of stock options, the Company was able to obtainAble, net income tax operating losses were carried back, generating an income tax benefit related to stock issued to employees in the amountreceivable of approximately $5,200,000. This tax benefit does not affect net income, but rather is added to additional paid in capital. As a result the Company generated a net tax operating loss, which will offset taxes already paid in fiscal 2004, as well as offset future tax liability. This created a refundable income tax and a future tax benefit. Since a portion of the benefit is not recognized in the current period, it is netted against the income tax payable and recorded as a deferred tax asset.$476,000 at April 30, 2006. The reason for the differences between the income tax provision for the income from continuing operations and the amounts computed by applying the statutory Federal income tax rates to income before income tax expense for the years ended April 30 are as follows:

Options to be granted under the managementemployee plans total 967,500,1,207,500, with the non-managementnon-employee director plans allowing for a total of 336,000396,000 options to be granted. At April 30, 2004,2006, the Company has 178,15469,464 shares reserved for future issuance to managementemployees under the Option Plans. The Option Plans are interpreted and administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The maximum term of options granted under the Option Plans is generally 10 years. Options granted under the Option Plans are either incentive stock options or nonqualified options. Options forfeited under the Option Plans are available for reissuance. Options granted under these plans are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Management options of 26,900 vest over five years with the remaining 663,470 management options vesting over three years from the date of grant, provided the optionee remains an employee of the Company. Options granted to non-employee directors are vested on the date of grant. The Company has elected to followaccounts for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. The Company is in accountingcompliance with disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, Accounting for its employeeStock-Based Compensation and SFAS 148 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure. The Company recognizes compensation expense for restricted shares and restricted stock units to employees. As of April 30, 2006, there are no issued restricted shares or restricted stock units. On April 28, 2006, in response to the issuance of SFAS 123R, the Company's Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved accelerating the vesting of 349,695 unvested stock options because, as discussed below,held by current employees and executive officers. Under FIN 44, a modification to accelerate the alternative fair value accounting method provided forvesting of a fixed award effectively results in the renewal of that award if, after the modification, an employee is able to exercise/vest in an award that under SFAS No. 123 requires the use of option-valuation models that wereoriginal terms, would have expired unexercisable/vested. If the employee continues to provide service and would have vested in the awards under the original vesting provisions, the modification does not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. Under APB Opinion No. 25, because the exercise pricecause an effective renewal of the Company's employee stock options equals the market priceawards and, accordingly, any incremental compensation expense measured as of the underlying stock on themodification date of grant, noshould not be recognized. The Company determined approximately 15,900 options were effectively renewed and compensation expense is recognized. Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS No. 123 as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994, under the fair value method of that statement. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the option vesting period.$5,248 was recognized in fiscal year 2006.
