NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The December 31, 2012, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet amounts have been derived from the previously audited Consolidated Balance Sheet of Kaman Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), but do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the remainder of the condensed financial information reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this report. Certain amounts in the prior period condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current presentation. The statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of trends or of results to be expected for the entire year.

The Company has a calendar year-end; however, its first three fiscal quarters follow a 13-week convention, with each quarter ending on a Friday. The second quarter for 2013 and 2012 ended on June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012, respectively.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In January 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-01, Balance Sheet (ASC Topic 210) - Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU No. 2013-01 applies to derivatives accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with ASC Section 210-20-45 or ASC Section 815-10-45 or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The standard became effective on January 1, 2013. These changes had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB also issued ASU No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220) - Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. ASU No. 2013-02 requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The Company adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2013. (See Note 16, Shareholders' Equity and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.)

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (ASC Topic 830) - Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity. The objective is to resolve the diversity in practice about whether ASC Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation - Overall or ASC Subtopic 830-30 Foreign Currency Matters - Translation of Financial Statements, applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) within a foreign entity. The update is effective for financial statement periods beginning after December 15, 2013 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2014. The Company does not expect these changes to have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-10, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815) - Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes. The amendments in this update permit the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (OIS) to be used as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under ASC Topic 815, in addition to U.S. Treasury ("UST") and London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). The amendments also remove the restriction on using different benchmark rates for similar hedges. The amendments are effective prospectively for qualifying new or redesignated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. The Company has not entered into any new hedging relationships since July 17, 2013.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED)

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (ASC Topic 740) - Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. The objective is to end some inconsistent practices with regard to the presentation on the balance sheet of unrecognized tax benefits.The update is effective for financial statement periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2014. The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On December 31, 2012, the Company sold substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Distribution segment's Canadian operations. As a result, the Company has reported the results of operations and financial position of this component as discontinued operations within the condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

The following tables provide information regarding the results of discontinued operations:

4. ACQUISITIONS

On June 14, 2013, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Northwest Hose & Fittings, Inc. ("Northwest Hose"). Northwest Hose, formed in 1995, is an authorized Parker distributor of hydraulic hose, fittings and adapters as well as couplers and industrial hose to a diverse group of industries such as the metals, agricultural, industrial machinery and equipment industries. Northwest Hose is headquartered in Spokane, WA. This acquisition is individually immaterial to the Company's results of operations and financial position.

5. RESTRUCTURING COSTS

During 2013, the Company initiated restructuring activities primarily at its Distribution segment to align the cost structure of the organization with its revenue levels. This included workforce reductions and the consolidation of field operations where its Distribution segment had multiple facilities in the same geographic area. The Distribution segment restructuring resulted in net workforce reductions of 118 employees and the exiting of five facilities. The Company intends to settle all liabilities associated with these restructuring activities during 2013.

The following table summarizes the accrual balances by cost type for the 2013 restructuring actions:



	Severance			Other ^(a)			Total
Restructuring accrual balance at December 31, 2012	$	—		$	—		$	—

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The Company uses a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:


•	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


•	Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.


•	Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The following table presents the carrying value and fair value of financial instruments that are not carried at fair value:



	June 28, 2013				December 31, 2012
In thousands	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Long-term debt:
Level 1	$	106,165	$	138,907	$	105,260	$	144,460
Level 2	188,964		175,280		154,325		143,135
Total	$	295,129	$	314,187	$	259,585	$	287,595

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued

For the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012

(Unaudited)

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (CONTINUED)

The above fair values were computed based on quoted market prices (Level 1) and discounted future cash flows (Level 2 observable inputs), as applicable. Differences from carrying values are attributable to interest rate changes subsequent to when the transaction occurred. The increase in fair value of the long-term debt is driven by increased borrowings under the Company's Revolving Credit Facility, partially offset by a lower quoted market price for the Company's convertible notes.

The fair values of Cash and cash equivalents, Accounts receivable, net, Notes payable, and Accounts payable - trade approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The table below segregates all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine their fair value at the measurement date:



	Total Carrying Value at		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
In thousands	June 28, 2013		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Derivative instruments	$	93	$	—	$	93	$	—
Total liabilities	$	93	$	—	$	93	$	—



	Total Carrying Value at		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
In thousands	December 31, 2012		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Derivative instruments	$	1,506	$	—	$	1,506	$	—
Total assets	$	1,506	$	—	$	1,506	$	—

The Company’s derivative instruments are foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps that are measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as forward rates and our counterparties’ credit risks. Based on these inputs, the derivative instruments are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy and have been included in other current assets, other assets and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 28, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Based on the continued ability to trade and enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments to be active.

The Company evaluated the credit risk associated with the counterparties to these derivative instruments and determined that as of June 28, 2013, such credit risks have not had an adverse impact on the fair value of these instruments.

8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivatives Overview

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations, including market risks relating to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivatives are recorded each period in earnings or accumulated other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is effective as part of a hedged transaction. Gains and losses on derivative instruments reported in accumulated other comprehensive income are subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

For the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012

(Unaudited)

8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

Derivatives Overview (continued)

The Company holds forward exchange contracts designed to hedge forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies and to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on the Company’s earnings and cash flows. Some of these contracts were designated as cash flow hedges. The Company will include in earnings amounts currently included in accumulated other comprehensive income upon recognition of cost of sales related to the underlying transaction. No material amounts were reclassified to income from other comprehensive income for derivative instruments formerly designated as cash flow hedges during the three or six months ended June 28, 2013, or June 29, 2012. Over the next twelve months, the income related to cash flow hedges expected to be reclassified from other comprehensive income is $0.2 million.

Derivatives Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

The Company’s Term Loan Facility (“Term Loan”) contains floating rate obligations and is subject to interest rate fluctuations. During 2013, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements for the purposes of hedging the eight quarterly variable-rate interest payments under its Term Loan due in 2014 and 2015. These interest rate swap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges and are intended to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s variable rate borrowings and minimize the impact of interest rate fluctuations attributable to changes in LIBOR rates on the Company’s earnings and cash flows.

Contract changes, negotiated settlements and claims for unanticipated contract costs	$	6,754	$	6,861

K-MAX® inventory of $17.9 million and $18.0 million as of June 28, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively, is included in contracts and other work in process inventory and finished goods. Management believes that a significant portion of this K-MAX® inventory will be sold after June 28, 2014, based upon the anticipation of supporting the fleet for the foreseeable future.

At December 31, 2012, $52.6 million of SH-2G(I), formerly SH-2G(A), inventory was included on the Company's balance sheet in contracts and other work in process inventory. On May 8, 2013, the Company announced that it had entered into a $120.6 million contract with the New Zealand Ministry of Defence for the sale of ten SH-2G(I) Super Seasprite aircraft, spare parts, a full mission flight simulator, and related logistics support. Although a substantial portion of the SH-2G(I) inventory will be used in the performance of this new contract, management believes that $30.2 million of the SH-2G(I) inventory will be sold after June 28, 2014, based upon the time needed to prepare the aircraft for sale and the requirements of our customer. For more information on the SH-2G(I) inventory, see Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies.

Long-term Contracts

For long-term aerospace contracts, the Company generally recognizes revenue and cost based on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, which allows for recognition of revenue as work on a contract progresses. The Company recognizes revenues and cost based on either (1) the cost-to-cost method, in which sales and profit are recorded based upon the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs to complete the contract, or (2) the units-of-delivery method, in which sales are recognized as deliveries are made and cost of sales is computed on the basis of the estimated ratio of total cost to total sales.

Revenue and cost estimates for all significant long-term contracts for which revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting are reviewed and reassessed quarterly. Based upon these reviews, the Company records the effects of adjustments in profit estimates each period. If at any time the Company determines that in the case of a particular contract total costs will exceed total contract revenue, the Company will record a provision for the entire anticipated contract loss at that time. There was a net decrease to the Company's operating income from changes in contract estimates of $2.7 million and $0.1 million for the three-month periods ended June 28, 2013, and June 29, 2012, respectively. There was a net decrease in operating income of $2.7 million and $1.6 million for the six-month periods ended June 28, 2013, and June 29, 2012, respectively, attributable to changes in contract estimates. The decreases for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, were a result of cost growth due to revised estimates in various programs, including the Sikorsky BLACK HAWK helicopter program, Bell helicopter offload program and a fuze program. The decrease for the six months ended June 29, 2012, was due to additional cost for one of the Company's fuze programs and production issues encountered during the first half of 2012.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters

Wichita Matter

As previously disclosed, the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas issued a grand jury subpoena in 2011 to Plastic Fabricating Company, Inc. (“PlasticFab”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company now known as Kaman Composites - Wichita, Inc., regarding a government investigation of record keeping associated with the manufacture of certain composite parts at PlasticFab's facility located in Wichita, Kansas. The subpoena required information related to the period January 1, 2006, through June 30, 2008. In March 2013, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Kansas notified PlasticFab that it may seek to commence a criminal proceeding against PlasticFab but it expressed a willingness to explore a pre-charge disposition of the matter. PlasticFab believes it has cooperated fully with the investigation and intends to continue to do so as it engages in further discussions with the U.S. Attorney's Office about this matter. Under present U.S. Government procurement laws and regulations, if indicted or adjudged to be in violation of procurement or other Federal laws, a contractor, such as PlasticFab, could be subject to fines, penalties, repayments, or compensatory or treble damages, or suspension or debarment on U.S. Government contract awards if warranted. Thus, as with any government contractor, an adverse outcome in a proceeding such as this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Management continues to cooperate with the government's investigation; however, we are unable to predict the outcome of any proceeding that may be brought or to estimate the amounts of resulting claims or other actions that could be instituted against PlasticFab, its officers, employees, or affiliates. Sales for PlasticFab represented 1.2% of the Company's consolidated sales for the year ended December 31, 2012. At June 28, 2013, the Company had no amount accrued for this matter, as it is unable to estimate the amount of costs that might be incurred in connection with the resolution of this matter at this time.

40 mm

The Orlando facility is one of five defendants in a qui tam suit under the False Claims Act brought by John D. King, a former employee of one of the other defendants. The case, United States ex rel. King v. DSE, Inc., et al., No. 8:08-cv-02416 (M.D. Fla.), is currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The United States Department of Justice has declined to intervene in the suit, and the case is being brought by Mr. King. The suit alleges that the Orlando facility knowingly submitted false claims or made false statements in connection with its work on 40 mm grenade programs. Management believes that it has fully complied with its legal obligations in connection with this program. On February 19, 2013, the Court issued an order dismissing the case with prejudice as to Mr. King. A judgment on the order was entered by the Court on February 20, 2013. Mr. King has filed a notice of appeal, to which the defendants have filed a motion to dismiss that is pending before the Court. At June 28, 2013, the Company had no amount accrued for this matter, as it is unable to estimate the amount of costs, if any, that might be incurred in connection with the resolution of this matter at this time. The Company believes that the likelihood of an adverse outcome to this matter is remote.

Other Matters

Revenue Sharing Agreement with the Commonwealth of Australia

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company signed a $120.6 million contract to resell ten of the Australia SH-2G(A) (now designated the SH-2G(I)) aircraft, spare parts, a full mission flight simulator, and related logistics support to the New Zealand Ministry of Defence. Pursuant to the terms of its revenue sharing agreement with the Commonwealth of Australia, the Company will share proceeds from the resale with the Commonwealth on a predetermined basis. Through June 28, 2013, the Company has paid $39.5 million (AUD) to the Commonwealth of Australia, the required minimum amount of payments pursuant to the revenue sharing agreement. Additional revenue sharing payments, if any, will be calculated pursuant to the terms of the revenue sharing agreement and recorded when they are due to the Commonwealth of Australia.

To secure the required minimum payments, the Company provided the Commonwealth of Australia with an unconditional letter of credit, which was reduced as such payments were made. The final required minimum payment of $6.7 million was made on April 2, 2013, which eliminates the Company's requirement to provide the Commonwealth of Australia with a letter of credit.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

Other Matters (continued)

Moosup

This facility is currently being held for disposal. Site characterization of the environmental condition of the property, which began in 2008, is continuing. The total anticipated cost of the environmental remediation activities associated with the Moosup property is $4.4 million, unchanged from the previously reported estimate, all of which has been accrued. The total amount paid to date in connection with environmental remediation activities at this location is $2.5 million. A portion ($0.1 million) of the accrual related to this property is included in other accruals and payables and the balance is included in other long-term liabilities. The remaining balance of the accrual reflects the total anticipated cost of completing these environmental remediation activities. Although it is reasonably possible that additional costs will be paid in connection with the resolution of this matter, the Company is unable to estimate the amount of such additional costs, if any, at this time.

New Hartford

In connection with the sale of the Company’s Music segment in 2007, the Company assumed responsibility for meeting certain requirements of the Connecticut Transfer Act (the “Transfer Act”) that applied to our transfer of the New Hartford, Connecticut, facility leased by that segment for guitar manufacturing purposes (“Ovation”). Under the Transfer Act, those responsibilities essentially consist of assessing the site's environmental conditions and remediating environmental impairments, if any, caused by Ovation's operations prior to the sale. The site is a multi-tenant industrial park, in which Ovation and other unrelated entities lease space. The environmental assessment process, which began in 2008, has recently been completed.

The Company's estimate of its portion of the cost to assess the environmental conditions and remediate this site is $2.2 million, unchanged from the previously reported estimate, all of which has been accrued. The total amount paid to date in connection with these environmental remediation activities is $0.5 million. A portion ($0.3 million) of the accrual related to this property is included in other accruals and payables and the balance is included in other long-term liabilities. The remaining balance of the accrual reflects the total anticipated cost of completing these environmental remediation activities. Although it is reasonably possible that additional costs will be paid in connection with the resolution of this matter, the Company is unable to estimate the amount of such additional costs, if any, at this time.

Bloomfield

In connection with the Company’s 2008 purchase of the portion of the Bloomfield campus that a Company subsidiary had leased from the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), the Company assumed responsibility for environmental remediation at the facility as may be required under the Transfer Act and continues the effort to define the scope of the remediation that will be required by the Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection. The assumed environmental liability of $10.3 million, all of which has been accrued, was determined by taking the undiscounted estimated remediation liability of $20.8 million and discounting it at a rate of 8%. This remediation process will take many years to complete. The total amount paid to date in connection with these environmental remediation activities is $6.1 million. A portion ($1.7 million) of the accrual related to this property is included in other accruals and payables, and the balance is included in other long-term liabilities. Although it is reasonably possible that additional costs will be paid in connection with the resolution of this matter, the Company is unable to estimate the amount of such additional costs, if any, at this time.

United Kingdom

In connection with the purchase of U.K. Composites, the Company accrued £1.6 million for environmental compliance at the acquired facilities. The remaining balance of the accrual at June 28, 2013, was £0.4 million, with £1.0 million having been paid to date in connection with these environmental remediation activities and £0.2 million released to income in 2011. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the remaining environmental compliance liability as of June 28, 2013, is $0.6 million, which is included in other accruals and payables. The Company continues to assess the work that may be required, which may result in a change to this accrual. Although it is reasonably possible that additional costs will be paid in connection with the resolution of this matter, the Company is unable to estimate the amount of such additional costs, if any, at this time.

Other Matters (continued)

Other Environmental Matters

The Company was notified by the Environmental Protection Agency that it is a potentially responsible party ("PRP") at a Superfund Site. At June 28, 2013, the Company had no amount accrued for this matter, as it is unable to estimate the amount of costs, if any, that might be incurred in connection with the remediation of this site. In making this determination, the Company considered the availability of the information related to the site; specifically, the continued identification of PRPs and the inability to determine the proportion of total responsibility attributable to each PRP. As more information is received, the Company will reassess its ability to estimate its portion of the cost for remediation, taking into consideration the financial resources of other PRPs involved in the site, their proportionate share of the total responsibility of waste at the site, the existence of insurance and the financial viability of the insurer.

13. COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

The computation of basic earnings per share is based on net earnings divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. The computation of diluted earnings per share reflects the common stock equivalency of dilutive options granted to employees under the Stock Incentive Plan and shares issuable on redemption of Convertible Notes.

13. COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE (CONTINUED)

In November 2010, the Company issued Convertible Notes due on November 15, 2017, in the aggregate principal amount of $115.0 million. The Convertible Notes will mature on November 15, 2017, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased by the Company or converted. Upon conversion, the Convertible Notes require net share settlement, where the aggregate principal amount of the notes will be paid in cash and remaining amounts due, if any, will be settled in cash, shares of the Company's common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company's election.

For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 28, 2013, shares issuable under the Convertible Notes that were dilutive during the period were included in the calculation of earnings per share as the conversion price for the Convertible Notes was less than the average share price. Shares issuable under the Convertible Notes were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 29, 2012, because the conversion price was greater than the average market price of our stock during those periods. Excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three and six months ended June 28, 2013, are 3,403,787 and 3,402,772 shares, respectively, issuable under the warrants sold in connection with the Company’s convertible note offering as they would be anti-dilutive. Excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three and six months ended June 29, 2012, are 3,396,016 and 3,394,841 shares, respectively, issuable under the warrants sold in connection with the Company’s convertible note offering as they would be anti-dilutive.

14. SHARE-BASED ARRANGEMENTS

2013 Management Incentive Plan

On April 17, 2013, the shareholders of the Company approved the 2013 Management Incentive Plan ("2013 Plan"), which replaced the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan. The 2013 Plan provides the Company with the ability to use equity-based awards of up to 2,250,000 authorized shares and is designed as a flexible share authorization plan, such that the Company's share authorization is based on the least costly type of award (stock options). Shares issued pursuant to “Full Value Awards” as defined in the 2013 Plan (awards other than stock options or stock appreciation rights which are settled by the issuance of shares, e.g., restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units if settled with stock, or other stock-based awards) count against the 2013 Plan's share authorization at a rate of 3 to 1, while shares issued upon exercise of stock options or stock appreciation rights count against the share authorization at a rate of 1 to 1. This means that every time an option is granted, the authorized pool of shares is reduced by one (1) share and every time a Full Value Award is granted, the authorized pool of shares is reduced by 3 shares. In deriving the valuation ratio used in the 2013 Plan, the Company used the Black Scholes Fair Value model as the basis for determining the approximate value of an option as compared to a "full value share." No stock-based awards have been granted under the 2013 Plan as of June 28, 2013.

General

The Company accounts for stock options and restricted stock as equity awards whereas the employee stock purchase plan is accounted for as a liability award. Compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards.

The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recorded during each period presented:

As indicated above, net sales from continuing operations increased by 7.9% and 4.6% for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2012 periods. The following table details the components of those increases as a percentage of consolidated net sales:

% change	6.5		%	8.5		%	6.0		%	4.9		%
% of net sales	28.1		%	28.4		%	28.2		%	27.9		%

The increase in gross profit from continuing operations for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, as compared to the same periods in 2012 is primarily attributable to the gross profit associated with sales recorded by the 2012 and 2013 Distribution segment acquisitions. Also contributing to the increase was the change in the mix of sales between military and commercial products/programs in Aerospace. These increases were partially offset by lower gross profit on lower organic sales volume in Distribution and the $2.7 million impact of negative changes to estimates on our long-term Aerospace programs recorded in the second quarter of 2013.

SG&A increased by 5.1% and 7.4% for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2012 periods. The following table details the components of those increases:



	For the Three Months Ended		For the Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2013		June 28, 2013
Organic SG&A:

Aerospace	—	%	—	%
Total Acquisition SG&A	6.9	%	6.8	%

% change in SG&A	5.1	%	7.4	%

The increases in SG&A were primarily due to the incremental SG&A expenses incurred by our 2012 and 2013 Distribution segment acquisitions, as indicated in the above table. In addition, the increase in expense at our Aerospace segment was attributable to higher research and development costs. These increases were partially offset by lower corporate expenses due to lower pension expense and a decrease in organic expense at our Distribution segment due to savings realized from the restructuring completed in the first quarter of 2013.

Operating Income from Continuing Operations

% change	10.7		%	18.7		%	0.1		%	(6.6		)%
% of net sales	7.2		%	7.0		%	5.5		%	5.7		%

The increase in operating income for the three months ended June 28, 2013, versus the comparable period in 2012 was primarily due to an increase in our Aerospace segment operating income of $2.5 million and lower corporate expenses. Operating income for the six months ended June 28, 2013, remained relatively flat, due to a decrease in organic operating income at the Distribution Segment, offset by an increase in operating income at our Aerospace segment. (See segment discussion below for additional information.)

Interest Expense, net	$	3,163	$	2,827	$	6,231	$	5,700

Interest expense, net, generally consists of interest charged on our Credit Agreement (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Financing Arrangements", below), which includes a revolving credit facility and a term loan facility, and other borrowings and the amortization of debt issuance costs, offset by interest income. The increase in interest expense, net for the three months ended June 28, 2013, versus the comparable period in 2012 was primarily due to higher average borrowings. At June 28, 2013, the interest rate for outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement was 1.70% compared to 1.74% at June 29, 2012. (See Liquidity and Capital Resources section below for information on our borrowings.)

(a) Organic sales per sales day is a metric management uses to evaluate performance trends at our Distribution segment and is calculated by taking organic sales divided by the number of sales days in the period. Sales contributed by an acquisition are included in organic sales beginning with the thirteenth month following the date of acquisition. Prior period information is adjusted to reflect acquisition sales for that period as organic sales when calculating organic sales per sales day. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Financial Measures.

Net sales from continuing operations

Net sales from continuing operations for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, increased 6.9% and 5.2%, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2012, when measured on a same day sales basis. The increase was driven by the contribution of sales from our 2012 and 2013 acquisitions which totaled $25.2 million and $48.4 million for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in organic sales of $7.8 million and $26.5 million, respectively. The decrease in organic sales for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, was primarily driven by declines in sales volume to original equipment manufacturer customers.

Operating income from continuing operations

The decrease in Distribution segment operating income from continuing operations for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, was driven by the lower organic sales noted above and correspondingly lower rebates. This was partially offset by the contribution of operating income from our 2012 and 2013 acquisitions of approximately $1.8 million and $3.2 million for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, respectively. Additionally, results for the six-month period ended June 28, 2013, include $3.0 million of restructuring costs incurred during the first quarter. As expected this restructuring resulted in a reduction of expense of approximately $2.0 million during the second quarter, which we anticipate will be a recurring cost savings going forward.

Other Matters

Enterprise Resource Planning System

In July 2012, we announced our decision to invest in a new enterprise-wide resource planning system for our Distribution segment. The anticipated total investment in the new system is approximately $45 million, which will be incurred over a number of years. Of the total investment, we expect that approximately 75% will be capitalized. Depreciation and amortization of the capitalized cost is expected to begin in 2013 and increase over the following three to four years. In order to minimize disruptions to our ongoing operations we have developed a project plan that takes a phased approach to implementation and includes appropriate contingencies. For the three months and six months ended June 28, 2013, expenses incurred were approximately $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and capital expenditures were $1.6 million and $6.9 million, respectively.

Net sales

The increase for the three-month period ended June 28, 2013, was due to a $15.3 million increase in sales on our military products/programs which was offset by a $1.2 million decrease in sales on commercial products/programs. The increase in military sales was primarily attributable to a higher volume of shipments to foreign customers under our JPF program, higher bearing product sales due to growth in our base business and several retrofit programs not related to ongoing production in the quarter and $3.8 million of revenue recognized under the SH-2G(I) contract with New Zealand. These increases totaled $26.3 million and were offset by a $10.9 million decrease in shipments to the USG under our JPF program.

For the six months ended June 28, 2013, net sales increased 5.0% due to an $11.6 million increase in sales on our military products/programs and a $2.4 million increase in sales on commercial products/programs. The increase in military sales was primarily attributable to a $29.6 million increase on the programs/products noted above, offset by a $10.8 million decrease in shipments to the USG under our JPF program and a $6.7 million decrease in sales due to the stop work issued during the fourth quarter of 2012 on the blade erosion coating program and fewer cockpit deliveries on our Sikorsky BLACK HAWK helicopter program.

The increase in sales on commercial products/programs for the six months ended June 28, 2013, was due to higher commercial bearing product sales due to growth in our base business and several retrofit programs not related to ongoing production in the second quarter, an increase in deliveries of various commercial composite structures products/programs and stronger tooling fabrication sales. The increases totaled $10.2 million and were partially offset by a $7.8 million decrease in sales of engineering design services resulting from a reduction in requirements by a major OEM customer.

Operating income

The increase in operating income for the three months ended June 28, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to increased sales and gross profit on certain commercial and military products/programs. The increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to higher margin sales to foreign customers on our JPF program, higher commercial and military bearing product sales and the initial recognition of revenue under the SH-2G(I) program. These increases totaled $10.3 million and were primarily offset by the $2.7 million negative impact of changes in contract estimates recorded in the current period, lower shipments to the USG under our JPF program and a $2.1 million increase in SG&A costs, primarily related to higher research and development expenditures.

The increase in operating income for the six months ended June 28, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily attributable to the $15.5 million increase in gross profit on the programs/products noted above. These increases were offset by lower profit of $5.5 million due to lower sales on the blade erosion coating program, fewer cockpit deliveries on our Sikorsky BLACK HAWK helicopter program, a decrease in volume of sales of engineering design services and the $2.7 million negative impact of changes in contract estimates recorded in the current period, as discussed below.

Long-Term Contracts

For long-term aerospace contracts, we generally recognize sales and income based on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, which allows for recognition of revenue as work on a contract progresses. We recognize sales and profit based on either (1) the cost-to-cost method, in which sales and profit are recorded based upon the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs to complete the contract, or (2) the units-of-delivery method, in which sales are recognized as deliveries are made and cost of sales is computed on the basis of the estimated ratio of total cost to total sales.

Revenue and cost estimates for all significant long-term contracts for which revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting are reviewed and reassessed quarterly. Based upon these reviews, we record the effects of adjustments in profit estimates each period. If at any time management determines that in the case of a particular contract total costs will exceed total contract revenue, we record a provision for the entire anticipated contract loss at that time. Our operating income decreased $2.7 million in both the three-month and six-month periods ended June 28, 2013, as a result of changes in contract estimates. These decreases were a result of cost growth due to revised estimates in various programs, including the Sikorsky BLACK HAWK helicopter program, Bell helicopter offload program and a fuze program. The net change in our operating income resulting from changes in contract estimates for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 29, 2012, were a reduction of $0.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively, primarily driven by additional cost for one of our fuze programs and production issues encountered during the first half of 2012.

Sequestration

The Budget Control Act of 2011 (the "BCA") enacted 10-year discretionary spending caps which are expected to generate over $1 trillion in savings for the U.S. Government, a substantial portion of which comes from Department of Defense ("DoD") baseline spending reductions. On January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (the "ATRA") was signed into law, which among other things effectively delayed the implementation of the automatic sequestration process to March 1, 2013, and reduced the spending cuts that were scheduled to occur during 2013 in proportion to the delay. Although we cannot predict where all the mandated cuts will be made, we believe our portfolio of programs and product offerings are well positioned and will not be materially impacted by DoD budget cuts. We have not seen a material impact on our revenues during the first half of 2013 as a result of the sequestration process. However, we believe certain military and defense programs may experience delays in the receipt of components from suppliers or the shipment of finished product to our customers due to delays in the receipt of government approvals. Additionally, furloughs could cause delays in a variety of other areas including contracting and payment processing. We continue to monitor developments in this area and work with our suppliers and customers to understand the potential impact on our Company.

Backlog



	June 28, 2013		December 31, 2012
	(in thousands)
Backlog	$	645,684	$	531,923

Backlog increased $113.8 million during the first half of 2013. This increase is primarily due to the $120.6 million contract for the sale of the SH-2G(I) aircraft, spare parts, a full mission flight simulator, and related logistics support to the New Zealand Ministry of Defence entered into during the second quarter of 2013. Additionally, we have received increased orders for the Sikorsky BLACK HAWK helicopter cockpit program and new orders under our JPF program. These increases were offset by deliveries of bearing products and JPF program fuzes.

Major Programs/Product Lines

Below is a discussion of significant changes in the Aerospace segment's major programs during the first six months of 2013. See our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a complete discussion of our Aerospace segment's programs.

BLACK HAWK

The Sikorsky BLACK HAWK helicopter cockpit program involves the manufacture of cockpits including the installation of all wiring harnesses, hydraulic assemblies, control pedals and sticks, seat tracks, pneumatic lines, and the composite structure that holds the windscreen for most models of the BLACK HAWK helicopter. As a result of lower customer demand, we expect to deliver approximately 116 BLACK HAWK cockpits this year, compared to 124 cockpits delivered in 2012. We currently have $112.0 million of orders under this program in backlog and have delivered 57 cockpits during the first half of 2013.

The segment also performs additional subcontract work involving blade erosion coating on this aircraft. During the fourth quarter of 2012, this program was put on stop work by the customer, due to a supplier related matter. The stop work was extended during the second quarter, as such the Company believes that this program may be canceled. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not received a notice of termination.

AH-1Z

The segment manufactures cabins for the increased capability AH-1Z attack helicopter, which is produced by Bell Helicopter (“Bell”) for the U.S. Marine Corps. The cabin is the largest and most complex airframe structure utilized in the final assembly of the AH-1Z helicopter and has not been manufactured new since 1995. We currently have $33.0 million in backlog associated with this program; with potential follow-on options the program value could exceed $200.0 million. We continue to make progress on this program and currently have six units in process. The first cabin delivery is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2013.

FMU-152 – Joint Programmable Fuze (“JPF”)

We manufacture the JPF, an electro-mechanical bomb safe and arming device, which allows the settings of a weapon to be programmed in flight. During the first quarter of 2013, we were awarded commercial sales orders totaling $20.3 million under our JPF program. Total JPF backlog at June 28, 2013, is $76.9 million.

During the quarter we delivered a total of 5,216 fuzes, which consisted of 1,566 fuzes delivered to the U.S. Government and 3,650 fuzes delivered as direct commercial sales to foreign governments. A total of 9,836 fuzes have been delivered through the first half of 2013. The product line continues to perform above contract requirements for lot acceptance and operational reliability has been in excess of 99%. We occasionally experience lot acceptance test failures due to the complexity of the product and the extreme parameters of the acceptance test. Given the maturity of the product, we now generally experience isolated failures, rather than systematic failures. As a result, identifying a root cause can take longer and may result in fluctuating delivery performance from quarter to quarter. We continue to perform lot acceptance testing on fuze components and we expect to deliver approximately 18,000 to 22,000 fuzes in 2013.

SH-2G(I)

On May 6, 2013, we announced that the New Zealand Ministry of Defence (MoD) entered into a $120.6 million contract for the purchase of ten SH-2G(I) Super Seasprite aircraft, spare parts, a full mission flight simulator, and related logistics support. The contract calls for the aircraft to be delivered over an approximately three-year period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Discussion and Analysis of Cash Flows

We assess liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund working capital and investing and financing activities. Significant factors affecting liquidity include: cash flows generated from or used by operating activities, capital expenditures, investments in our business segments and their programs, acquisitions, divestitures, dividends, availability of future credit, adequacy of available bank lines of credit, and factors that might otherwise affect the company's business and operations generally, as described under the heading “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in Item 1A of Part I of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We continue to rely upon bank financing as an important source of liquidity for our business activities including acquisitions. We believe this, when combined with cash generated from operating activities, will be sufficient to support our anticipated cash requirements for the foreseeable future. However, we may decide to raise additional debt or equity capital to support other business activities including potential future acquisitions. We anticipate our capital expenditures will be approximately $40.0 to $45.0 million in 2013, primarily related to machinery and equipment, facility renovations and information technology infrastructure. Included in this is approximately $13.4 million associated with investments in enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems primarily for our Distribution segment and, to a lesser extent, certain Aerospace facilities.

We anticipate a variety of items will have an impact on our liquidity during the next 12 months, in addition to our working capital requirements. These could include one or more of the following:


•	the matters described in Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including:


◦	the cost of defending the Wichita matter; and


◦	the cost of existing environmental remediation matters;


•	required contributions to our qualified pension plan and Supplemental Employees’ Retirement Plan (“SERP”); and


•	the extension of payment terms by our customers.

However, we do not believe any of these matters will lead to a shortage of capital resources or liquidity that would prevent us from continuing with our business operations as expected.

We regularly monitor credit market conditions to identify potential issues that may adversely affect, or provide opportunities for, the securing and/or pricing of additional financing, if any, that may be necessary to continue with our growth strategy and finance working capital requirements.

Management regularly monitors pension plan asset performance and the assumptions used in the determination of our benefit obligation, comparing them to actual performance. We continue to believe the assumptions selected are valid due to the long-term nature of our benefit obligation.

During the second quarter, the Company signed a $120.6 million contract to resell ten of the former Australia SH-2G(A) (now designated SH-2G(I)) aircraft, spare parts, a full mission flight simulator, and related logistics support to the New Zealand Ministry of Defence. Pursuant to the terms of its revenue sharing agreement with the Commonwealth of Australia, the Company will share proceeds from the resale with the Commonwealth on a predetermined basis. Through June 28, 2013, the Company has paid $39.5 million (AUD), the required minimum amount of payments pursuant to the revenue sharing agreement. Additional revenue sharing payments, if any, will be calculated pursuant to the terms of the revenue sharing agreement and recorded when they are due to the Commonwealth of Australia.

To secure the minimum guaranteed portion of these payments, we provided the Commonwealth with an unconditional letter of credit, which was reduced as such payments were made. The final required minimum payment of $6.7 million was made on April 2, 2013, which eliminated the Company's requirement to provide the Commonwealth of Australia with a letter of credit.

Upon entering into the sales contract with the New Zealand Ministry of Defence, we agreed to provide unconditional letters of credit for the receipt of advanced payments on this program. As we perform under the contract and meet certain predetermined milestones, we will no longer have an obligation to maintain these letters of credit. As of June 28, 2013, the letter of credit balance associated with this program totaled $14.0 million.

A summary of our consolidated cash flows from continuing operations is as follows:



	For the Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2013			June 29, 2012			2013 vs. 2012
	(in thousands)
Total cash (used in) provided by:
Operating activities	$	(13,407	)	$	(5,008	)	$	(8,399	)
Investing activities	(26,960		)	(18,778		)	(8,182		)
Financing activities	32,572			23,900			8,672

Free Cash Flow (a):
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(13,407	)	$	(5,008	)	$	(8,399	)
Expenditures for property, plant and equipment	(21,267		)	(10,963		)	(10,304		)
Free cash flow	$	(34,674	)	$	(15,971	)	$	(18,703	)

(a) Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant and equipment, both of which are presented on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures for more information regarding Free Cash Flow.

Net cash used in operating activities of continuing operations increased $8.4 million for the six months ended June 28, 2013, versus the comparable period in 2012 primarily due to the following:


•	higher receivables due to shipments made under certain Aerospace programs late in the second quarter, with only partial cash collection; and


•	higher inventory-related balances at our Aerospace segment to support new programs.

These changes were partially offset by advances on contracts of $14.0 million received during the second quarter of 2013 that relate to the SH-2G(I) New Zealand contract.

Net cash used in investing activities increased $8.2 million for the six months ended June 28, 2013, versus the comparable period in 2012 primarily due to an increase of $10.3 million in cash used for expenditures for property, plant and equipment, including a $6.9 million investment at our Distribution segment for ERP.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased $8.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2013, versus the comparable period in 2012, primarily due to an increase under the Revolving Credit Agreement of $12.7 million of additional borrowings in 2013 as compared to the same period in prior year. The borrowings were used to fund the acquisition of assets purchased from Northwest Hose during the quarter and the purchase of property, plant and equipment.

Financing Arrangements

On November 20, 2012, we entered into a new Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provides a $400 million Revolving Credit Facility expiring July 31, 2017. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an “accordion” feature that would allow us to increase the aggregate amount available to $500 million, subject to additional commitments from lenders. The Revolving Credit Facility may be used for working capital, letters of credit and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions. The Credit Agreement also provides a $100 million Term Loan Facility expiring on July 31, 2017, which is in addition to our Revolving Credit Facility. Principal payments, which started in the first quarter of 2013, of $2.5 million are due quarterly, with $55 million of the initial aggregate principal payable in the final quarter of the Term Loan Facility. We may increase the term loan by up to an aggregate of $100 million in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

Interest rates on amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement are variable. At June 28, 2013, the interest rate for the outstanding amounts on both the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility was 1.70%. At December 31, 2012, the interest rate for the outstanding amounts on both the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility was 1.75%.

The financial covenants associated with the Credit Agreement include a requirement that (i) the ratio of Consolidated Senior Secured Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, cannot be greater than 3.50 to 1.00, (ii) the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, cannot be greater than 4.00 to 1.00, and (iii) the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, to the sum of (a) all interest, premium payments, debt discounts, fees, charges and related expenses and (b) the portion of rent expense under capital leases that is treated as interest expense, as defined in the Credit Agreement, cannot be less than 4.00 to 1.00. We were in compliance with those financial covenants as of and for the quarter ended June 28, 2013, and we do not anticipate noncompliance in the foreseeable future.

Total average bank borrowings during the quarter ended June 28, 2013, were $196.3 million compared to $143.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. This increase is attributable to working capital requirements, the acquisition we completed during the quarter and the purchase of property, plant and equipment during the first six months of 2013. As of June 28, 2013, and December 31, 2012, there was $285.6 million and $331.1 million available for borrowing, respectively, under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of letters of credit. Letters of credit are generally considered borrowings for purposes of the Revolving Credit Facility. A total of $20.5 million and $14.6 million in letters of credit was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 28, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively. The letter of credit balance related to the guaranteed minimum payments to Australia in connection with the ownership transfer of the 11 SH-2G(A) helicopters (along with spare parts and associated equipment) was brought to zero in the quarter ended June 28, 2013, compared to $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The final minimum payment of $6.4 million (AUD) was made to the Commonwealth of Australia on April 2, 2013, bringing total payments to $39.5 million (AUD) in accordance with our settlement agreement. The letter of credit balance related to the SH-2G(I) New Zealand sales contract was $14.0 million at June 28, 2013, and increased to $21.0 million as of the date of this filing. The letter of credit balance related to this contract could reach a potential $60.1 million over its three-year term.

Other Sources/Uses of Capital

Through the end of the second quarter we have contributed $5.0 million to the qualified pension plan and $2.0 million to the SERP. An additional $5.0 million contribution to the qualified pension plan was made in July 2013. We do not expect to make any further contributions to the qualified pension plan during 2013. We plan to contribute an additional $0.3 million to the SERP in 2013. For the 2012 plan year, we contributed $10.0 million to the qualified pension plan and $1.6 million to the SERP.

In November 2000, our Board of Directors approved a replenishment of our stock repurchase program, providing for repurchase of an aggregate of 1.4 million common shares for use in administration of our stock plans and for general corporate purposes. There were no shares repurchased under this program during the first six months of 2013. At June 28, 2013, approximately 1.0 million shares remained authorized for repurchase under this program.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Management believes the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures used in this report on Form 10-Q provide investors with important perspectives into our ongoing business performance. We do not intend for the information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Other companies may define the measures differently. We define the non-GAAP measures used in this report and other disclosures as follows:

Organic Sales per Sales Day

Organic sales per sales day is defined as GAAP “Net sales from the Distribution segment” less sales derived from acquisitions completed during the preceding twelve months divided by the number of sales days in a given period. Sales days are the number of business days that the Distribution segment’s branch locations were open for business and exclude weekends and holidays. Management believes sales per sales day provides investors with an important perspective on how net sales may be impacted by the number of days the segment is open for business. Management uses organic sales per sales day as a measurement to compare periods in which the numbers of sales days differ.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is defined as GAAP “Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” less “Expenditures for property, plant & equipment”, both of which are presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Management believes free cash flow provides an important perspective on the cash available for dividends to shareholders, debt repayment, and acquisitions after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long-term value creation. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt. Management uses free cash flow internally to assess both business performance and overall liquidity.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our contractual obligations or off-balance sheet arrangements during the first six months of 2013. See our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of our contractual obligations and off-balance sheet arrangements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Preparation of the company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management believes the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the consolidated financial statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K describe the critical accounting estimates and significant accounting policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There have been no significant changes in the Company's critical accounting estimates and significant accounting policies in 2013.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Information regarding recent changes in accounting standards is included in Note 2, Recent Accounting Standards, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no significant changes in the company’s exposure to market risk during the second quarter of 2013. See the company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a discussion of the company’s exposure to market risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The company has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 28, 2013. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 28, 2013, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting at the company that have materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

General

From time to time, as a normal incident of the nature and kind of businesses in which the Company and its subsidiaries are, and were, engaged, various claims or charges are asserted and legal proceedings are commenced by or against the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries. Except as set forth below, as of June 28, 2013, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a party, nor is any of its or their property subject, to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Wichita Matter

As previously disclosed, the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas issued a grand jury subpoena in 2011 to Plastic Fabricating Company, Inc. (“PlasticFab”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company now known as Kaman Composites - Wichita, Inc., regarding a government investigation of record keeping associated with the manufacture of certain composite parts at PlasticFab's facility located in Wichita, Kansas. The subpoena required information related to the period January 1, 2006, through June 30, 2008. During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2013, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Kansas notified PlasticFab that it may seek to commence a criminal proceeding against PlasticFab but it expressed a willingness to explore a pre-charge disposition of the matter. PlasticFab believes it has cooperated fully with the investigation and intends to continue to do so as it engages in further discussions with the U.S. Attorney's Office about this matter. Under present U.S. Government procurement laws and regulations, if indicted or adjudged to be in violation of procurement or other Federal laws, a contractor, such as PlasticFab, could be subject to fines, penalties, repayments, or compensatory or treble damages, or suspension or debarment on U.S. Government contract awards if warranted. Thus, as with any government contractor, an adverse outcome in a proceeding such as this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Management continues to cooperate with the government's investigation; however, we are unable to predict the outcome of any proceeding that may be brought or to estimate the amounts of resulting claims or other actions that could be instituted against PlasticFab, its officers, employees, or affiliates. At June 28, 2013, the Company had no amount accrued for this matter.

Environmental Matters

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to numerous U.S. Federal, state and international environmental laws and regulatory requirements and are involved from time to time in investigations or litigation of various potential environmental issues concerning activities at our facilities or former facilities or remediation as a result of past activities (including past activities of companies we have acquired). From time to time, we receive notices from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or equivalent state or international environmental agencies that we are a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (commonly known as the “Superfund Act”) and/or equivalent laws. Such notices assert potential liability for cleanup costs at various sites, which include sites owned by us, sites we previously owned and treatment or disposal sites not owned by us, allegedly containing hazardous substances attributable to us from past operations. We are currently named as a potentially responsible party at one site. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of these proceedings, in the opinion of management, any payments we may be required to make as a result of such claims in existence at June 28, 2013, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Asbestos Litigation

Like many other industrial companies, the Company and/or one of its subsidiaries are named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos integrated into certain products sold or distributed by the Company and/or the named subsidiary. A substantial majority of these asbestos-related claims have been covered by insurance or other forms of indemnity or have been dismissed without payment. The rest have been resolved for amounts that are not material to the Company, either individually or in the aggregate. Based on information currently available, we do not believe that the resolution of any currently pending asbestos-related matters will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investors should carefully review and consider the information regarding certain factors which could materially affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows as set forth under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (“2012 Form 10-K”). Except for the new risk factor below relating to the Wichita Matter, we do not believe that there have been any material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2012 Form 10-K, but we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in future filings with the SEC. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe not to be material may also adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

Wichita Matter

The U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas issued a grand jury subpoena in 2011 to Plastic Fabricating Company, Inc. (“PlasticFab”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company now known as Kaman Composites - Wichita, Inc., regarding a government investigation of record keeping associated with the manufacture of certain composite parts at PlasticFab's facility located in Wichita, Kansas. The subpoena requested information related to the period January 1, 2006, through June 30, 2008. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Kansas recently notified PlasticFab that it may seek to commence a criminal proceeding against PlasticFab but it expressed a willingness to explore a pre-charge disposition of the matter. PlasticFab has cooperated fully with the investigation and intends to continue to do so as it engages in further discussions with the U.S. Attorney's Office about this matter. Under present U.S. Government procurement laws and regulations, if indicted or adjudged in violation of procurement or other Federal laws, a contractor, such as PlasticFab, could be subject to fines, penalties, repayments, or compensatory or treble damages, or suspension or debarment on U.S. Government contract awards if warranted. Thus, as with any government contractor, an adverse outcome in a proceeding such as this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements also may be included in other publicly available documents issued by the Company and in oral statements made by our officers and representatives from time to time. These forward-looking statements are intended to provide management's current expectations or plans for our future operating and financial performance, based on assumptions currently believed to be valid. They can be identified by the use of words such as "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "goal," "seek," "believe," "project," "estimate," "expect," "strategy," "future," "likely," "may," "should," "will" and other words of similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. Examples of forward looking statements include, among others, statements relating to future sales, earnings, cash flows, results of operations, uses of cash and other measures of financial performance.
