Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, income taxes, and stock-based compensation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited financial statements included in its report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014.2015. Certain reclassifications may have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

Note 2.   Investment in Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Investments

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, accounts receivable, prepaids, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximateapproximated fair value as of March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Investment securities at March 31, 20152016 and June 30, 20142015, consist of certificates of deposit and municipal bonds which are classified as available-for-sale securities and have been determined to be level 1 assets. The cost, gross unrealized gains, gross unrealized losses and fair value of available-for-sale securities by major security type at March 31, 20152016 and June 30, 20142015, are as follows:

The portfolio is diversified and highly liquid and primarily consists of investment grade fixed income instruments. At March 31, 2015,2016, the Company did not have any investments in individual securities that have been in a continuous loss position considered to be other than temporary. Due to the fact that the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the severity and duration of the unrealized losses were not significant, the Company considered these unrealized losses to be temporary at March 31, 2015.

As of March 31, 20152016 and June 30, 2014,2015, the contractual maturities of available-for-sale securities were as follows:

Note 3. Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income of the Company. The computation of weighted-average common shares outstanding, assuming dilution, excluded options to purchase 92,400 and 25,250 shares of our common stock for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively, as the effect of including them would be anti-dilutive. As unearnedUnearned ESOP shares are released or committed-to-be-released the shares become outstanding for earnings-per-share computations.

Note 4.   Stock Based Compensation

The Company follows ASC 718 in establishing standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, as well as transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. ASC 718 requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements based on the fair value of the share-based payment. ASC 718 establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees, except for equity instruments held by employee share ownership plans.

Total stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statements of comprehensive income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, was $22,284 and 2014, was $15,993, and $25,478, respectively, before income taxes. The related total deferred tax benefit was approximately $1,371$1,765 and $2,774$1,371 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.same periods. Total stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statements of comprehensive income for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, was $74,533 and 2014, was $42,051, and $77,721, respectively, before income taxes. The related total deferred tax benefit was approximately $4,113$6,206 and $8,553$4,113 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.same periods. ASC 718 requires the tax benefits related to stop options exercised resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options to be classified and reported as both an operating cash outflow and a financing cash inflow.

As of March 31, 2015,2016, there was approximately $54,320$103,223 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock option awards that is expected to be recognized as expense over the next two2 years. The total deferred tax benefit related to these awards is approximately $2,282.$8,530.

The Company has one employee stock option plan under which options may be granted, the 2007 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the "2007 Plan"). The Board of Directors may grant options to acquire shares of common stock to Directors and employees of the Company at the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Generally, options granted have a two-year vesting period based on two years of continuous service and have a ten-year contractual life. Option grants provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control. Shares issued upon the exercise of options are from those held in Treasury. The 2007 Plan was approved by the Company's shareholders at the Company's Annual Meeting on November 30, 2007 and supersedes the Company's 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Plan"). Options covering 400,000 shares were authorized for issuance under the 2007 Plan, of which 200,100235,650 have been granted and 133,450162,250 are outstanding as of March 31, 2015.2016. While no further grants of options may be made under the 2000 Plan, as of March 31, 2015, 21,2302016, 10,800 options remain outstanding, vested and exercisable from the 2000 Plan.

ASC 718 requires the use of a valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option valuation model, which incorporates various assumptions including those for volatility, expected life and interest rates.

The table below outlines the weighted average assumptions that the Company used to calculate the fair value of eachthe option award for the nine months ended March 31, 20152016 and 2014.2015.

The Company pays dividends quarterly and paid a special cash dividend of $1.00dividends totaling $0.75 per share in fiscal year 2014. The Company has not paid a special dividend in fiscal yearfor the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. Our Board of Directors assesses the Company’s dividend policy periodically. There is no assurance, that the Board of Directors will either maintain the amount of the regular cash dividend or declare a special dividend during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 or any future years. Expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the expected life of the options. The expected option life (in years) represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on actual historical experience.

The following table summarizes stock option activity during the nine months ended March 31, 2015:2016:

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the NYSE MKT on March 31, 20152016, and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders if all option holders had exercised their options on March 31, 2015.2016. This amount changes based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. The total intrinsic values of the options exercised during the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, was $36,374 and 2014 was $53,242, and $89,288, respectively.

The following table summarizes changes in non-vested stock options during the nine months ended March 31, 2015:2016:

Note 5.   Commitments and Contingencies

The Company at certain times enters into standby letters of credit agreements with financial institutions primarily relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts. Contingent liabilities on outstanding standby letters of credit agreements aggregated to zero at March 31, 20152016 and 2014.2015. The Company, as a U.S. Government contractor, is subject to audits, reviews, and investigations by the U.S. government related to its negotiation and performance of government contracts and its accounting for such contracts. Failure to comply with applicable U.S. Government standards by a contractor may result in suspension from eligibility for award of any new government contract and a guilty plea or conviction may result in debarment from eligibility for awards. The government may, in certain cases, also terminate existing contracts, recover damages, and impose other sanctions and penalties.   In accordance with ASC 450 “Contingencies” the Company accrues an amount within the range that appears to be its best estimate of a possible outcome. 

Note 6.   Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards UpdateASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,”(ASU 2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016,2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in fiscal 2018.2019.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”. ASU 2015-11 requires inventory measured using any method other than last-in, first out or the retail inventory method to be subsequently measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price, less the estimated costs to complete, dispose, and transport such inventory. ASU No. 2015-11 will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU No. 2015-11 is required to be applied prospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2015-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”. The guidance requires the classification of deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current in a classified balance sheet. The current requirement that deferred tax assets and liabilities of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by this update. ASU No. 2015-17 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. ASU No. 2015-17 may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. Adoption of ASU 2015-17 would have the following impact on the Company’s financial statements at March 31, 2016; a decrease in current assets of $214,534, a decrease in non-current liabilities of $157,444 and an increase in non-current assets of $57,090.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. The amendments in this Update address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments in order to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. ASU No. 2016-01 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-01 will have on the Company's financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)”. ASU 2016-08 provides guidance on principal versus agent considerations by an entity as discussed in ASU 2014-09, issued May 2014. ASU 2016-08 provides criteria to be assessed by an entity when determining whether it is the principal or agent in relation to the goods or services which the company is contractually obligated to provide to the customer. Among these considerations are; Identifying the unit of account at which the entity should assess whether it is a principal or an agent, Identifying the nature of the good or service provided to the customer; Applying the control principle to certain types of transactions; and, Interaction of the control principle with the indicators provided to assist in the principle versus agent evaluation. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are consistent with the effective date and transition requirements of Update 2014-09. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-08 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”. The areas for simplification in this Update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU No. 2016-09 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. ASU No. 2016-09 may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-09 will have on the Company's financial statements.

Note 7.  Employee Stock Ownership Plan

The Company sponsors a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP") that covers all nonunion employees who work 1,000 or more hours per year and are employed on June 30. The Company makes annual contributions to the ESOP equal to the ESOP's debt service less dividends on unallocated shares received by the ESOP. All dividends on unallocated shares received by the ESOP are used to pay debt service. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings. As the debt is repaid, shares are released and allocated to active employees, based on the proportion of debt service paid in the year. The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with FASB ASC 718-40. Accordingly, the shares purchased by the ESOP are reported as Unearned ESOP Shares in the statement of financial position. As shares are released or committed-to-be-released, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the current average market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings-per-share (EPS) computations. ESOP compensation expense was $124,712$109,856 and $144,323$124,712 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively. ESOP compensation expense was $333,389$334,031 and $427,987$333,389 for the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, and 2014, respectively.

The ESOP shares as of March 31, 20152016 and 20142015, were as follows:

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, the Company repurchased 0 and 14,303 shares previously held in the ESOP for $0 and $355,418, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, the Company repurchased 0 and 13,553 shares previously held in the ESOP for $0 and $320,504, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 the Company did not repurchase any shares previously held by the ESOP.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. (“Espey”) is a power electronics design and original equipment manufacturing (OEM) company with a long history of developing and delivering highly reliable products for use in military and severe environment applications. All design,Design, manufacturing, and testing is performed in our 150,000+ square foot facility located at 233 Ballston Ave, Saratoga Springs, New York. Espey is classified as a “smaller reporting company” for purposes of the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Espey’s common stock is publicly-traded on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “ESP.”

Espey began operations after incorporation in New York in 1928. We strive to remain competitive as a leader in high power energy conversion and transformer solutions through the design and manufacture of new and improved products by using advanced and “cutting edge” electronics technologies.

Espey is ISO 9001:2008 and AS9100:2009 certified. Our primary products are power supplies, power converters, filters, power transformers, magnetic components, power distribution equipment, upsUPS systems, antennas and high power radar systems. The applications of these products include AC and DC locomotives, shipboard power, shipboard radar, airborne power, ground-based radar, and ground mobile power.

Espey services include design and development to specification, build to print, design services, design studies, environmental testing services, metal fabrication, painting services, and development of automatic testing equipment. Espey is vertically integrated, meaning that the Company produces individual components (including inductors), populates printed circuit boards, fabricates metalwork, paints, wires, qualifies, and fully tests items, mechanically, electrically and environmentally, in house. At times, when it is cost and schedule effective, portionsPortions of the manufacturing and testing process are subcontracted.subcontracted to vendors from time to time.

The Company markets its products primarily through its own direct sales organization and through several outside sales representatives, including foreign representatives to help solicit and coordinate foreign contracts.representatives. Business is solicited from large industrial manufacturers and defense companies, the government of the United States, foreign governments and major foreign governments.electronic equipment companies. In certain countries the Company has external sales representatives to help solicit and coordinate foreign contracts. Espey is also on the eligible list of contractors with the United States Department of Defense and generally is automatically solicited by Defense Department procurement agencies for their needs falling within the major classes of products produced by the Company. In addition, the Company directly pursues opportunities from the United States Department of Defense for prime contracts. Espey contracts with the Federal Government under cage code 20950 as Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp.

There is competition in all classes of products manufactured by the Company from divisions of the largest electronic companies, as well as many small companies. The Company's sales do not represent a significant share of the industry's market for any class of its products. The principal methods of competition for electronic products of both a military and industrial nature include, among other factors, price, product performance, the experience of the particular company and history of its dealings in such products.

Our business is not seasonal. The Company, as well as other companies engagedHowever, the concentration of our business in supplying equipment for industrial and military applications are exposedand our customer concentrations expose us to on-going associated risks including, without limitation, dependence on appropriations from the United States Government and the governments of foreign nations, program allocations of a single customer, and the potential of governmental termination of orders for convenience.

The Company’s backlog was approximately $38.4 million at March 31, 2015 and includes $24.4 million from two significant customers compared to $31.9 million at March 31, 2014 which included $23 million from two significant customers. The backlog for the Company represents the estimated remaining sales value of work to be performed under firm contracts. This includes items that have been authorized and appropriated by Congress and/or funded by the customer. The unfunded portions of the backlog at March 31, 2015 and 2014 were $2.3 million and zero, respectively, representing firm multi-year orders for which funding has not yet been appropriated by Congress or funded by our customer. While there is no guarantee that future budgets and appropriations will provide funding for a given program, management has included in unfunded backlog only those programs that it believes are likely to receive funding based on discussions with customers and program status.

Uncertainty in federal defense spending and competition in our industrial customer base continues to cause new incidents of competition in the industry.be a concern. Based upon discussions during contract negotiations with our major customers over the past several years, we believe that many of our competitors arehave been aggressively investing in upfront product design costs and lowering profit margins as a strategic means of maintaining existing business and enhancing market share at the expense of short term profit. This change in the marketplacemarket place has put pressure on the pricing of our current products and will likely result in lower margins on new business and some of our legacy business. In order to compete effectively for new business, in some cases we invest in upfront design costs, thereby reducing initial profitability as a means of procuring new long-term programs. Accordingly, we have adjusted our pricing strategy in order to achieve a balance which enables us both to retain repeat programs while being more competitive in bidding on new programs. We continue

The Company's backlog was approximately $41.6 million at March 31, 2016, which includes $26.2 million from two significant customers, compared to refine$38.4 million at March 31, 2015, which included $24.4 million from two significant customers. The backlog at March 31, 2016, also includes a $10.1 million delivery order attributable to an award of a significant contract from the Federal Government. Revenues under this strategycontract are not expected to be realized until fiscal year 2017. The backlog for the Company represents the estimated remaining sales value of work to be performed under firm contracts. This includes items that have been authorized and appropriated by Congress and/or funded by the customer. The unfunded portions of the backlog at March 31, 2016 and 2015, were $0 and $2.3 million, respectively, representing firm multi-year orders for which funding had not yet been appropriated by Congress or funded by our customer. While there is no guarantee that future budgets and appropriations will provide funding for a given program, management has included in unfunded backlog only those programs that it believes are likely to receive funding based upon ouron discussions with existingcustomers and prospective customers.program status.

Moreover, engineering development contracts frequently have an element of uncertainty associatedManagement expects revenues in fiscal year 2016 to increase as compared with the status of the applicable defense program, whether it will be approvedfiscal year 2015 revenues. Current expectations are for ultimate production and the timing of production, and whether the particular program will be funded by Congress. It is not uncommon for theregross margins to be lower compared to prior year due to product mix, competitive pricing pressures, new program investments, and a lapseone-time reduction to cost of several years or more between engineering development work and production work. Or, as we have recently observed, production work may be delayed indefinitely or never occur.

sales in the prior year discussed within the Results of Operations, below. New orders received in the first nine months of fiscal 20152016 were approximately $20.5$26.0 million as compared to $10.1$20.5 million of new orders received in the first nine months of fiscal 2014. Due to the uncertain timing of receipt of new orders, particularly large orders, period to period comparisons, including short-term fluctuations in backlog, are not necessarily indicative of business trends. We continue to quote a large volume of opportunities and are reviewing our cost components and cost structure to become more cost competitive in an attempt to replace business which had been anticipated but ultimately was either deferred indefinitely or lost.

While the sales backlog gives the Company a solid base of future sales, based upon the composition of the backlog and our anticipated schedule for the fulfillment of orders, management expects net sales in fiscal year 2015 to be less than net sales in fiscal year 2014.2015. It is presently anticipated that a minimum of $7.5million$6million of orders comprising the March 31, 20152016, backlog will be filled during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015.2016. The minimum of $7.5$6 million does not include any shipments, which may be made against orders subsequently received during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. The estimate of the March 31, 2015 backlog to be shipped in fiscal 2015 is subject to future events, which may cause the amount of the backlog actually shipped to differ from such estimate.2016.

In addition to the backlog, the Company currently has outstanding opportunities representing approximately $33in excess of $51 million in the aggregate as of May 11, 2016, for both repeat and new programs. programs.The outstanding quotations encompass various new and previously manufactured standard and specialized military and industrial power electronics, power supplies, transformers, as well as contract manufacturing.and subassemblies. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will acquire any of the anticipated orders described above, many of which are subject to allocations of the United States defense spending and factors affecting the defense industry and militaryindustrial locomotive power supply procurement generally.of a single customer.

Management continues to evaluate our sales strategy including the professional and technical resources necessary to keep pace with the changing market conditions and needs of our customers. The Company has added to and re-aligned current sales organization is focusedand engineering resources, in order to focus on our core competenciespenetrating opportunities with new and existing customers. The Company continues quoting current and new customers for programs of designing and delivering to customer specification highly reliable power supplies, power magnetics and power distribution electronics for use in military and severe environment applications. In addition, we intend to design and produce some of our own products when we identify a potential need in the marketplace.varying sizes.

Net sales to four significant customers represented 68.6% of the Company's total sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, and net sales to two significant customers represented 63.8% of the Company’s total sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 and net2015.

High sales concentrations in a small number of2015. This high concentration level with these customers presents significant risk. A loss of one of these customers or programs related to these customers could significantly impact the Company. Historically, a small number of customers have accounted for a large percentage of the Company’s total sales in any given fiscal year. Management continues to pursue opportunities with current and new customers with an overall objective of lowering the concentration of sales and mitigating excessive reliance upon a single major product of a particular program andor minimizing the impact of the loss of a single significant customer. Management continues to evaluate its business development functions and potential revised courses of action in order to diversify its customer base.

Management, along with the Board of Directors, continues to evaluate the need and use of the Company’s working capital. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $250,000 for fiscal 2015, of which $162,822 was expended through March 31, 2015. These expenditures are primarily being made to expand the production capability for transformers. Expectations are that working capital will be adequate to fund orders, regular quarterly dividend payments, and general operations of the business consistent with past practice. There is no guarantee that the Board of Directors will either maintain the amount of the regular cash dividend or declare a special dividend during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 or any future years.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management believes our most critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and cost estimates to completion.

A significant portion of our business is comprised of engineering designdevelopment and production contracts. Generally, revenues on these long-term fixed-price contracts are recorded on a percentage of completion basis using units of delivery as the measurement basis for progress toward completion.

Percentage of completion accounting requires judgment relative to expected sales, estimating costs and making assumptions related to technical issues and delivery schedule. Contract costs include material, subcontract costs, labor and an allocation of overhead costs. The estimation of cost at completion of a contract is subject to numerous variables involving contract costs and estimates as to the length of time to complete the contract. Given the significance of the estimation processes and judgments described above, it is possible that materially different amounts of expected sales and contract costs could be recorded if different assumptions were used, based on changes in circumstances, in the estimation process. When a change in expected sales value or estimated cost is determined, changes are reflected in current period earnings.

The primary factors in determining gross profit and net income are overall sales levels and product mix. The gross profits on mature products and build to print contracts are higher as compared to products which are still in the engineering development stage or in early stages of production. In the case of the latter, the Company incurs what it refers to as “loss contracts”,contracts,” meaning engineering design contracts in which the Company invests with the objective of developing future product sales. In any given accounting period the mix of product shipments between higher margin programs and less mature programs, and expenditures associated with loss contracts, has a significant impact on gross profit and net income. In fiscal year 2015,The gross profit percentage increased in the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to fiscal year 2014, there has beenthe same period ended March 31, 2015 due to the impact of higher margins resulting from product mix. The gross profit percentage decreased for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2015 due to a significantfavorable one-time reduction in the Company’s incidentsto cost of loss contracts.

While during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 the company incurred one-time costs related to hiring agreements for vacant positions filled, these costs were offset, in part, by a decrease in salary expense due to a reduction in the overall number of employees. The decrease for theand nine months ended March 31, 2015 relates primarily to a reductionan increase in salary expensecompensation costs due to reductionspay increases and an increase in the number of employees offset by the one-time costs incurred related to the hiring agreements discussed above.employees.

The Company’s effective income tax rate atrates for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, were 29.7% and 29.5%, respectively, compared to 26.2% and 26.0% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014 was 26.0% and 27.7%, respectively. The effective tax rate is less than the statutory tax rate mainly due to the benefit the Company receives on its “qualified production activities” under The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and the benefit derived from the ESOP dividends paid on allocated shares. The increase in the effective tax rate for March 31, 2016, is primarily due to a reduced benefit caused by the reduction in dividends deductible for income tax purposes.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2015,2016, was $506,369$972,468 or $.22$0.43 per share both basic and diluted, respectively compared to $706,030$506,369 or $.31$0.22 per share both basic and diluted, for the three months ended March 31, 2014.2015.

The increase in net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2016, was primarily due to higher sales and higher margins resulting from product mix. The decrease in net income per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, was mainly due tothe reduction in loss contracts incurred by the Company, lowerto higher selling, general and administrative expenses and a higher effective income tax rate offset by loweran increase in sales. Also, impacting the comparison is a prior year favorable one-time $560,000 reduction to cost of sales and product mix when compared with the same periods in fiscal 2014.referred to above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's working capital is an appropriate indicator of the liquidity of its business, and during the past two fiscal years, the Company, when possible, has funded all of its operations with cash flows resulting from operating activities and when necessary from its existing cash and investments. The Company did not borrow any funds during the last two fiscal years. Management has available a $3,000,000 line of credit to help fund further growth or working capital and letter of credit needs, if necessary, but does not anticipate the need for any borrowed funds in the foreseeable future. Contingent liabilities on outstanding standby letters of credit agreements aggregated to zero at March 31, 2016 and 2015.

The Company's working capital as of March 31, 20152016 and 20142015, was approximately $29.5 million and $28.1 million, respectively. During the three and $27.7 million,nine months ended March 31, 2016, the Company repurchased 0 and 14,303 shares of its common stock from the Company’s Employee Retirement Plan and Trust (”ESOP”) for a purchased price of $0 and $355,418, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 the Company repurchased 0 and 13,553 shares of its common stock, respectively, from the Company’s Employee Retirement Plan and Trust (“ESOP”)ESOP for a purchase price of $0 and $320,504, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. Under existing authorizations from the Company'sCompany’s Board of Directors, as of March 31, 2015,2016, management is authorized to purchase an additional $1,385,744$1,030,326 of Company stock.Stock.

The table below presents the summary of cash flow information for the fiscal yearsperiods indicated:

Net cash provided by operating activities fluctuates between periods primarily as a result of differences in sales and net income, provisions for income taxes, the timing of the collection of accounts receivable, purchase of inventory, and payment of accounts payable. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities primarily relates to an increase in trade receivable collections and a decline in inventory purchases due to the timing of production jobs, offset by an increase in cash paid for both federal income tax deposits and payments to vendors. Net cash provided by investing activities increased primarilydecreased in the nine months of fiscal 2016 due to a reduction in capital expenditures and the timing of the re-investmentand reinvestment of matured investment securities. NetThe increase in cash used in financing activities decreasedis due primarily due to the reduction of dividends paid on common stock, related to a special dividend payable at June 30, 2015, paid in the prior fiscal year, offset in part by the purchase of treasury stock.nine months ended March 31, 2016.

The Company currently believes that the cash flow generated from operations and when necessary, from cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet its long-term funding requirements for the foreseeable future.

During the nine months ended March 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, the Company expended $162,822$140,340 and $659,762,$162,822, respectively, for plant improvements and new equipment. The Company has budgeted approximately $250,000 for new equipment and plant improvements in fiscal 2015.2016. Management anticipates that the funds required will be available from current operations.

TheManagement also believes that the Company's reserve for bad debts of $3,000 is adequate given the customers with whom the Company at certain times enters into standby letters of credit agreements with financial institutions primarily relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts. The Company had no contingent liabilities on outstanding standby letters of credit agreements at each of March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014.does business.
