REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors
Composite Engineering, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets ofComposite Engineering, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2011 and January 1, 2011, and the related statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011, January 1, 2011 and December 26, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes 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 financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position ofComposite Engineering, Inc. as of December 31, 2011 and January 1, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011, January 1, 2011 and December 26, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

COMPOSITE ENGINEERING, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations—The Company is headquartered in Roseville, California with manufacturing facilities located in Sacramento, California. In business since 1984, the Company specializes in the design, development, manufacturing and support of high performance aerial targets around the world. The Company is the sole provider of subsonic aerial targets to the United States Air Force (USAF) under long-term contracts. In addition to the provision of targets and target related hardware, the Company is experienced in the training and "stand-up" of organic operational capabilities with United States Department of Defense and foreign customers alike. The Company's product portfolio includes a suite of targets which cover a wide range of performance ranges from low subsonic to supersonic.
The Company is vertically integrated. In addition to being the design authority for the systems provided, the Company builds all of its own tooling, manufactures the entire airframe, accomplishes all assembly work and builds in house over 90% of the Ground Support Equipment required. This gives the Company substantial control over both the quality and scheduling aspects of program execution.
Cash and Cash Equivalents—The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk—The Company maintains cash balances that at times exceed federally insured amounts.
Four customers represent approximately 68% of the billed contracts receivable balance as of December 31, 2011, and two customers represent approximately 87% of the billed contracts receivable balance at January 1, 2011. Three customers represent approximately 95% of the unbilled contracts receivable balance as of December 31, 2011, and two customers represent 100% of the unbilled contracts receivable balance as of January 1, 2011. Revenue from three of the Company's customers accounted for approximately 83%, 85% and 75% of contract revenues earned for the years ended December 31, 2011, January 1, 2011 and December 26, 2009, respectively. These three customers are either US Government entities or contractors to the US Government.
Billed Contracts Receivable—Billed contracts receivable are carried at the original invoice amount and are written off to expense in the period in which they are determined to be uncollectible. Management determines the uncollectability of accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer's financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded as income when received. Management's evaluation resulted in no allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2011 and January 1, 2011.
Inventory—Inventories, other than inventoried costs relating to long-term contracts and programs, are stated at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out method) or market. The Company maintains a valuation allowance to reduce inventory to the net realizable value. At December 31, 2011 and January 1, 2011, the allowance was approximately $652,000 and $584,500, respectively.
Inventoried costs relating to long-term contracts and programs are stated at the actual production cost, including factory overhead, initial tooling and other related non-recurring costs. Inventoried costs relating to long-term contracts and programs are reduced by charging amounts relieved from inventory to cost of contract revenues when the Company starts the target assembly process and the inventory item is released to the production floor.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Property and Equipment—Property and equipment purchased by the Company are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. All costs associated with major improvements are capitalized, and repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The cost and accumulated depreciation of items sold or retired are removed from the accounts. Any resulting gain or loss will be recognized in the current period. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset.
The estimated useful lives used for calculating depreciation and amortization for equipment and leasehold improvements are as follows:
| Lives | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Machinery | 5 - 7 Years | |||
Automotive equipment | 5 Years | |||
Office equipment | 3 - 7 Years | |||
Leasehold improvements | 1 - 20 Years | |||
Equipment held under capital leases | 3 - 5 Years |
Long-Lived Assets—Long-lived assets consist primarily of property, equipment, and leasehold improvements, which are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset (before interest). If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount of fair value less cost to sell. Fair value is based on appraisals or other reasonable methods to estimate fair value. Management of the Company believes that no impairment exists for long-lived assets at December 31, 2011 and January 1, 2011.
Revenue Recognition—Contract revenues earned under long-term contracts are recorded under the percentage-of-completion method. Costs and estimated gross margins are recorded as contract revenues earned as work is performed based on the percentage that incurred costs bear to estimated total costs utilizing the most recent estimates of costs and funding. Cost estimates include costs such as labor, material, and overhead. Some contracts contain incentive provisions based upon performance in relation to established targets which are recognized in the contract estimates when deemed realizable. Contract change orders and claims are included in contract revenues earned when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable. Since many contracts extend over a long period of time, revisions in cost and funding estimates during the progress of work have the effect of adjusting earnings applicable to performance in prior periods in the current period. When the current contract estimate indicates a loss, a provision is made for the total anticipated loss in the current period.
The asset, "Unbilled contracts receivable," represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed on long-term contracts in progress. The liability "Unearned income" represents billings in excess of revenues recognized on long-term contracts in progress.
The estimated contract value of performance under Government fixed-price contracts in process is recognized under the percentage of completion method of accounting where the estimated contract revenue earned is determined on the basis of completion to date (the total contract amount multiplied

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
by percent of performance to date less contract revenues earned recognized in previous periods) and costs (including general and administrative, except as described below) are expensed as incurred.
Contract revenues earned under cost-reimbursement contracts are recorded as costs are incurred and include estimated earned fees in the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to total estimated costs. The fees under certain Government contracts may be increased or decreased in accordance with cost or performance incentive provisions which measure actual performance against established targets or other criteria. Such fee adjustments are included in contract revenues earned at the time the amounts can be determined reasonably.
Warranty Reserve—Included in accrued expenses is $935,440 and $952,156 of accrued warranty costs at December 31, 2011 and January 1, 2011, respectively. This represents estimated costs associated with product warranties in conjunction with certain contracts. These costs are expensed as incurred. Contracts are generally covered by a twelve month, but may extend to a thirty-six month, warranty period and cover systems, accessories, equipment, parts, and software manufactured by the Company to certain contractual specifications. Warranties cover factors such as non-conformance to specification and defects in material and workmanship.
Income Taxes—The Company elected S-Corporation status for both federal and state purposes. Under S-Corporation tax provisions, the Company does not pay federal corporate income taxes on its taxable income. Instead, the stockholders are liable for individual federal and state income taxes on their respective shares of the Company's taxable income. There is a 1.5% tax imposed on net income for California state taxes on an S-Corporation. The provision for this tax is included in other expense.
The Company elected to become an S-corporation effective July 1, 2002. As an S-corporation, the Company is subject to a "built-in gains" tax based on the sale of certain Company assets when the fair market value of the assets exceeded the tax basis at the date the Company elected S-corporation status. The tax is imposed on the Company's built-in gain at July 1, 2002 on assets that are disposed of within the ten-year period beginning on the first day of the Company's first "S" tax year. The Company has estimated the potential maximum built-in gain tax exposure to be approximately $2,400,000. This has not been recorded on the Company's financial statements. Any tax on the gain will be recorded if disposition of any of the applicable assets occur prior to July 1, 2012.
The Company has adopted accounting guidance relating to accounting for uncertain tax positions. The accounting guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for accounting for uncertain tax positions and also provides guidance on various matters such as derecognition, interest, penalties, and disclosure requirements. The Company does not have any entity level uncertain tax positions.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and California. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal or state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007.
Research and Development—Research and development costs are charged to general and administrative expense when incurred. The amount charged for the years ended December 31, 2011, January 1, 2011 and December 26, 2009 amounted to $3,088,006, $2,333,614 and $7,054,103, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Fiscal Year End—The Company operates on a 52/53-week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31, 2011. The fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and December 26, 2009 include 52 weeks. The fiscal year ended January 1, 2011 includes 53 weeks.
Accounting Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Subsequent Events—Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are available to be issued. The Company recognizes in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the financial statements. The Company's financial statements do not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the balance sheet date and before financial statements are available to be issued. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 19, 2012, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued as approved by management.
