ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (RESTATED)
OVERVIEW
The financial information presented for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been restated to reflect the correction of an error related to a bill and hold arrangement. See “Explanatory Note” at the beginning of this filing and Footnote 13 in Item 8. The 2005 financial information has been updated for this correction.
Astronics Corporation, through its subsidiaries Luminescent Systems Inc. and Luminescent Systems Canada Inc. and most recently with the February 2005 acquisition of Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems Corp., designs and manufactures lighting systems and components, electrical power generation, in-flight control and power distribution systems for aircraft. We operate four principal facilities located in New York State, New Hampshire, Washington State and Quebec, Canada. We serve the three primary aircraft markets which are the military, commercial transport and the business jet markets. In 2005, sales to the military accounted for 37% of total sales. Sales to the commercial transport market and the business jet market were 41% and 21%, respectively. Astronics strives to offer comprehensive lighting and electrical systems for aircraft which we believe make the Company unique in our ability to serve our customers.
On February 3, 2005, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the General Dynamics — Airborne Electronic Systems (AES) business unit from a subsidiary of General Dynamics. Astronics acquired the business for $13.0 million in cash. The Company financed the acquisition and related costs by borrowing $7.0 million on its revolving line of credit and used $6.4 million of cash on hand. For the year ended December 31, 2005, AES had sales of $27.6 million and a pre tax profit of $2.4 million. In 2004, AES had a pre tax loss of approximately $8 million. The loss was primarily a result of costs relating to a development program that included significant termination fees. See Note 10 of Item 8 Financial Statements and Supplementary Data for pro forma financial information. AES produces a wide range of products related to electrical power generation, in-flight control, and power distribution on military, commercial transport, business jet and missile platforms.
Key factors affecting Astronics’ growth are our ability to be designed into new aircraft, the rate at which new aircraft are produced, government funding of military programs, and the rates at which aircraft owners, including commercial airlines, refurbish or install upgrades to their aircraft. Once designed into a new aircraft, the spare parts business is frequently retained by the Company. Astronics’ strategy is to increase the amount of content on aircraft platforms, evolving the Company from our historic role of a components supplier to a turn key provider of complete systems.
One of the principal markets we serve is the commercial transport market. The addition this year of Astronics AES has increased our exposure to the commercial transport market. As the financial condition of the world’s airlines improves and stabilizes, the airlines are beginning to increase investments in new aircraft purchases and cabin improvements. Many airlines are expanding the number of seats equipped with in-flight entertainment systems and in-seat power. We are in a strong position to benefit from this trend with our power and data technology acquired in the Astronics AES acquisition. We believe we will benefit from the expected continued strength of this market. Our increased exposure to this market also means we have greater down side risk should the commercial transport market enter a period of retraction as it did for several years beginning in 2001. If that were to occur, it is likely that commercial airlines would reduce spending on these types of programs and have a significant negative impact on our business. The power and data business accounted for 21% of our sales and 46% of our bookings in 2005.
The business jet market continued to be strong in 2005. We provide a wide range of products to the business jet market including air frame power, cockpit and exterior lighting products. Our products are found on many of the aircraft manufactured by Cessna, Raytheon and Bombardier. Our exterior lighting products have received notable interest from the business jet OEM’s. Among our more significant initiatives during 2005 was the continued development of products for Eclipse Aviation’s Eclipse 500 and Cessna’s Mustang business jets. There is risk involved with any new aircraft such as the Eclipse 500 and the Cessna Mustang as neither aircraft has been certified by the FAA. Eclipse is expecting certification of the Eclipse 500 during mid 2006 and Cessna in late 2006 for its Mustang. Should certification be delayed or not achieved it would impact Astronics growth opportunities and expected profits. We believe that the business jet markets will continue to provide opportunities for growth provided the economy remains healthy.
Our Military market sales are typically comprised of several significant “programs” such as the power converter for the Tactical Tomahawk and Taurus missiles, with 2005 sales of $3.0 million and the Korean F-16 night vision program, with 2005 sales of $4.8 million. In addition, because our component parts are found on many different aircraft, we have many smaller program sales for upgrade programs and spares as well as new build aircraft. A large development effort over the past several years has been the exterior lighting suite for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. This aircraft is expected to enter low rate production in 2008. The Military market is dependent on governmental funding which can change from year to year. Risks are that overall spending may be reduced in the future and that specific programs may be eliminated. Astronics does not have significant reliance on any one program such that cancellation of a particular program will cause material financial loss. We believe that we will continue to have opportunities similar to past years regarding this market.
We continue to look for opportunities to capitalize on our core competencies of power generation and distribution and lighting to expand our existing business and to grow through strategic acquisitions.
In 2005, Astronics continued to commit significant resources for the engineering and design of next generation products which in many cases will not enter production until late 2006 or beyond. Some of the more significant efforts during 2005 were products for the various OEM’s developing very light business jets such as Cessna Aircraft and Eclipse Aviation. For the military markets our larger design and development efforts have been for the exterior lighting suite for the F-35 (Joint Strike Fighter) and multiple smaller programs. In 2005 our seat power module which provides power for in flight entertainment (IFE) systems and in seat power was selected by several airlines for installation in their cabin upgrades. For the foreseeable future we expect that we will continue to have opportunities requiring levels of engineering resources comparable to 2005.
We are anticipating 2006 revenue to increase over 2005. Our 2006 plan projects revenues of about $85 to $90 million, however the year is difficult to predict. A large number of the major aircraft programs in which we are involved are nearing critical stages of their certification process. If, during 2006, these programs achieve certification and transition to production smoothly, we could potentially exceed our expectations. If these programs encounter challenges and delays, our delivery schedule could be delayed, and our 2006 shipments and profitability will be affected.
We ended the year with a backlog of $96.1 million of which approximately $58 million is expected to be delivered during 2006. Provided that the economy maintains its strength we anticipate that new aircraft build rates will continue to increase over the next several years providing increased opportunities to grow revenue and profits. We expect discretionary spending by the airlines will continue as the global commercial transport market continues its recovery. We expect that the military market will continue to offer opportunities for us to increase the value of the content that we provide on a growing base of aircraft platforms.
Challenges facing us include improving shareholder value through increased profitability. Increasing profitability is dependent on many things such as increased build rates for existing aircraft, successful certification of new aircraft such as the Cessna Mustang and Eclipse 500 business jets, continued government funding of defense programs such as the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter and V-22 Osprey and the Company’s ability to obtain production contracts for parts we currently supply or have been selected to design and develop for these programs. In addition we are faced with increasing costs for health care and corporate governance, particularly those required by Sarbanes-Oxley legislation. Finally, many of our newer development programs are based on new and unproven technology. We are challenged to develop the technology on a schedule that is consistent with specific aircraft development programs. We will continue to address these challenges by working to improve operating efficiencies and focusing on executing on the growth opportunities currently in front of us.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are affected by management’s application of accounting policies, which are discussed in Note 1 of Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report. The critical accounting policies have been reviewed with the audit committee of our board of directors.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized on the accrual basis, principally as units are delivered. The Company manufactures most of its products on a build to order basis and ships products upon completion or shortly thereafter. There are no significant contracts allowing for right of return. The Company does evaluate and record an allowance for any potential returns based on experience and any known circumstances. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 no allowances were recorded for contracts allowing for right of return. A trade receivable is recorded at the value of the sale.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company records a valuation allowance to account for potentially uncollectible accounts receivable. The allowance is determined based on Management’s knowledge of the business and specific customers and review and analysis of accounts receivable agings. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable was $0.4 million, or 3% of gross accounts receivable. At December 31, 2004, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.3 million, or 4% of gross accounts receivable. In addition, at December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company fully reserved the balance of a non-current note receivable in the amount of $0.6 million.
Inventory Valuation
The Company records valuation reserves to provide for slow moving or obsolete inventory or to reduce inventory to the lower of cost or market value. In determining the appropriate reserve, Management considers overall inventory levels in relation to forecasted demands. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s reserve for inventory valuation was $4.8 million, or 19.8% of gross inventory. This is an increase of $4.1 million from $0.7 million at December 31, 2004 which represented 9% of gross inventories. Approximately $4.0 million of the increase was added as result of the AES acquisition on February 3, 2005.
Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowances
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of future tax benefit that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. We consider recent earnings projections, allowable tax carry forward periods, tax planning strategies and historical earnings performance to determine the amount of the valuation allowance. Changes in these factors could cause us to adjust our valuation allowance, which would impact our income tax expense when we determine that these factors have changed.
As of December 31, 2005, the Company had a net deferred tax asset of $0.8 million, net of a $0.3 million valuation allowance, net of federal tax benefit. These assets relate principally to liabilities or asset valuation reserves that result in timing difference between generally acceptable accounting principles recognition and treatment for income tax purposes, as well as a state investment tax credit carry-forward.
Negatively impacting net income was an income tax charge of approximately $0.3 million related to a change in New York State tax law, net of federal tax benefit, which makes it unlikely the company will be able to utilize certain tax credit carry-forwards. Based on historical earnings and current projections of future taxable income, the valuation allowance was recorded in the second quarter of 2005.
Goodwill
The Company’s goodwill is the result of the excess of purchase price over net assets acquired from acquisitions. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had $2.7 million of goodwill. There was no goodwill recognized as a result of the acquisition of Astronics AES in February 2005. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually, during the fourth quarter, and whenever events occur or circumstances change that indicates there may be impairment. The process of evaluating the Company’s goodwill for impairment is subjective and requires significant estimates. These estimates include judgments about future cash flows that are dependent on internal forecasts, long-term growth rates and estimates of the weighted average cost of capital used to discount projected cash flows. Based on the discounted projected cash flows, management has concluded that there is no impairment of the Company’s goodwill.
Supplemental Retirement Plan
The Company maintains a supplemental retirement plan for certain executives. The accounting for this plan is based in part on certain assumptions that may be highly uncertain and may have a material impact on the financial statements if different reasonable assumptions had been used. The assumptions for increases in compensation and the discount rate for determining the cost recognized in 2005 were 5.0% and 5.75% respectively. The discount rate used for the projected benefit obligation as of December 31, 2005 was 5.50%. The assumption for compensation increases takes a long-term view of inflation and performance based salary adjustments based on the Company’s approach to executive compensation. For determining the discount rate the Company considers long-term interest rates for high-grade corporate bonds.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales
Sales for 2005 increased by $39.7 million to $74.4 million, up from $34.7 million in 2004, an increase of 114%. The increase was the result of the 2005 acquisition of Astronics AES, contributing $27.6 million and an increase in organic sales of $12.1 million. Organic sales increased in the business jet market by $4.0 million, the commercial transport market by $1.2 million and the military market by $7.0 million. These were offset partially by a $0.1 million decrease in sales to other markets. The increase in organic sales to the business jet market was primarily a result of increased production rates for new aircraft. The increase in organic sales to the military market was primarily the result of the Korean F-16 night vision retro-fit program which accounted for $4.8 million and an increase in overall volume on a wide variety of programs. Astronics AES 2005 sales were $0.7 million to the business jet market, $22.4 million to the commercial transport market and $4.5 million to the military market.
Sales for 2004 increased by $1.5 million to $34.7 million, up from $33.2 million in 2003, an increase of 4.6%. The increase was the result of an increase in sales to the business jet market of $2.5 million, an increase in sales to the commercial transport market of $0.1 million and an increase in other sales of $0.2 million offset partially by a $1.3 million decrease in sales to the military market. The increase in sales to the business jet market was primarily a result of increased production rates for new aircraft. The decrease of sales to the military was the result of lower demand for spare parts by the U.S. government.
Expenses
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased by 6.7 percentage points to 80.0 % in 2005 from 86.7% in 2004. This decrease was due to improved margins for the organic business and the addition of Astronics AES that had 2005 cost of sales totaling 72.0% of sales. Cost of sales, for the organic business as a percentage of sales decreased two percentage points to 84.7% in 2005 from 86.7% in 2004. This was a result of leverage provided by the increased revenues somewhat offset by an increase for engineering and design costs of $1.4 million to $7.2 million in 2005 as compared with $5.8 million in 2004. This increase in spending was due to the Company’s continued development of exterior lighting products, cabin lighting and higher value added cockpit lighting opportunities. It is our intention to continue investing in capabilities and technologies as needed that allows us to execute our strategy to increase the ship set content and value we provide on aircraft in all markets that we serve. The rate of spending on these activities, however, will largely be driven by opportunities that the market presents.
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased seven percentage points to 86.7% in 2004 from 79.7% in 2003. Engineering and design spending related primarily to product development increased by $2.2 million to $5.8 million in 2004 as compared with $3.6 million in 2003. This increase in spending was a result of additional engineering personnel and increased costs for goods and services supplied by vendors for qualification testing, outsourced testing and design work for the Company’s pursuit of exterior lighting, cabin lighting and higher value added cockpit lighting opportunities.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4.7 million to $10.2 million in 2005 from $5.5 million in 2004 primarily as a result the incremental selling, general and administrative costs of $4.7 million from Astronics AES. Organic selling, general and administrative costs remained flat when compared to 2004. A $0.3 million decrease in bad debt expense offset a similar increase in professional services, principally related to increased accounting and audit costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.5 million in both 2004 and 2003. During 2004, a $0.5 million increase in the provision for doubtful accounts caused primarily by the write off of a note receivable the Company held relating to the sale in 2001 of a former production facility was offset by a reduction in professional services, labor, overall spending and a reduction in the loss from foreign currency exchange.
Income from Continuing Operations Before Taxes
Income from Continuing Operations Before Taxes in 2005 increased by $5.4 million to a profit of $4.2 million from a loss of $1.2 million in 2004. This increase was a result of both the acquisition of Astronics AES, which contributed $2.4 million and improved margins in Astronics organic business. Leverage created by increased organic sales volume was somewhat offset by our increased engineering costs in 2005 which were a result of an increase in personnel as well as increased costs for goods and services supplied by vendors for qualification testing, outsourced testing and design work.
Income from Continuing Operations Before Taxes in 2004 decreased by $2.2 million to a loss of $1.2 million from a profit of 1.0 million in 2003. This decrease was a result of the increase in engineering costs referred to in preceding paragraphs.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 46.3% in 2005, 8.4 percentage points higher than the effective tax rate of 37.9% in 2004. The majority of the increase was due to a reserve that we recorded to reduce our deferred tax assets relating to New York State investment tax credit carry forwards. In 2005, new tax legislation was passed that we expect will reduce the allocation of future taxable income to New York State. As a result, we expect our future tax liability to be significantly reduced and do not expect to utilize all of these credits before they expire. In the second quarter of 2005, the Company recorded a valuation allowance reducing the Company’s $0.3 million deferred tax asset relating to these state tax credits to $0.03 million. As a result of this valuation allowance, the Company recorded a non-cash charge to income tax expense of $0.3 million, net of federal taxes. We expect our effective tax rate for future years to be closer to the statutory rates in effect at those times.
The effective tax rate was 37.9% in 2004, 12.3 percentage points higher than the effective tax rate of 25.5% in 2003. The increase was primarily due to recognition in 2003 of research and development tax credits from prior years which reduced the effective tax rate for that year.

Notes to Contractual Obligations Table
Note Payable and Long-Term Debt— See item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 2, Long-Term Debt and Note Payable in this report.
Interest on Long-Term Debt —Interest on Long-Term Debt consists of payments on Industrial Revenue Bonds issued through the Erie County, New York Industrial Development Agency taking into account the interest rate swap entered into on February 6, 2006 which effectively fixes the interest rate on this obligation at 3.99% through January 2016. We have excluded the variable rate interest on our note payable and other long-term debt.
Operating Leases— Operating lease obligations are primarily related to facility and equipment leases for our Astronics AES operations and facility leases for our Canadian operations.
Purchase Obligations— These are comprised of the Company’s commitments for goods and services in the normal course of business.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash flow from operating activities was $5.1 million in 2005 compared with $0.1 million in 2004. The increase in 2005 relates to higher earnings adjusted for non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization, offset somewhat by slight increase in working capital components.
Cash flow from operating activities was $0.1 million in 2004 compared with $2.1 million in 2003. The decrease of $2.0 million as compared with 2003 was mainly a result of a decrease in income from continuing operations of $1.5 million to a loss of $0.7 million in 2004 from income in 2003 of $0.8 million and an increase in investment in working capital components.
Cash used for investing activities was $15.0 million in 2005 compared with $2.4 million in 2004, a $12.6 million increase. The increase was primarily due to the Astronics AES acquisition of $13.4 million. Cash used for investing activities in 2003 was $0.7 million.
Pursuant to the March 14, 2003 spin-off of its wholly owned subsidiary, MOD-PAC CORP., the Company received a one-time dividend that resulted in net cash proceeds totaling $4.8 million in 2003.
The Company’s cash flows from operations are primarily dependent on its sales, profit margins and the timing of collections of receivables and payments to suppliers. Sales are influenced significantly by the build rates of new aircraft, which amongst other things are subject to general economic conditions, government appropriations and airline passenger travel. Over time, sales will also be impacted by the Company’s success in executing its strategy to increase ship set content and obtain production orders for programs currently in the development stage. A significant change in new aircraft build rates could be expected to impact the Company’s profits and cash flow. A significant change in government procurement and funding and the overall health of the worldwide airline industry could be expected to impact the Company’s profits and cash flow as well.
The Company’s cash required for capital equipment purchases for the last three years ranged between $0.4 million and $2.5 million. Our expectation for 2006 is that capital equipment expenditures will increase to over $4.0 million. This expected increase is primarily a result of machinery and equipment purchases to increase our production capacity. Additionally, we are in the exploratory stages of evaluating the possibility of expanding our available production square footage to accommodate projected future growth. Should we choose to expand the facility, it would likely be financed with additional debt.
Future capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including expansion of existing product lines and introduction of new product lines. Management believes that cash, together with the Company’s cash flow from operations and current borrowing arrangements will provide for these necessary capital expenditures.
In March, 2005 the Company received an amended agreement from HSBC Bank USA to increase its available revolving credit facility to $15 million. The amendment also extended the revolving credit facility through June 30, 2006. We expect that the existing facility will be renewed. We believe that should our facility with HSBC not be renewed we will be able to obtain alternative senior debt financing arrangements. At December 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants pursuant to this credit facility with HSBC Bank USA. These covenants are measured on an annual basis at December 31.
The Company’s cash needs for debt service for 2006 are not expected to change significantly from 2005 levels. For its February 2005 acquisition of AES the Company borrowed $7.0 million through the use of its credit facility. The Company may decide to convert all or a portion of the credit facility balance to a term note or pay down on the credit facility as excess cash becomes available. The impact of this credit facility balance on cash needs in 2006 will depend on the repayment terms selected.
The Company’s ability to maintain sufficient liquidity is highly dependent upon achieving expected operating results. The Company has successfully negotiated new credit terms with its lender in order to provide more operating flexibility than it previously had. However, failure to achieve expected operating results could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and our operations in the future.
The Company’s cash needs for working capital, capital equipment and debt service during 2006 and the foreseeable future, are expected to be met by cash flows from operations, its current cash balance and if necessary utilization of its revolving credit facility.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On September 26, 2002, the Company announced the spin-off of its wholly owned subsidiary MOD-PAC CORP., which operated the Printing and Packaging business segment. That transaction was effective March 14, 2003 and was accomplished by a tax free distribution of the stock of MOD-PAC CORP. to the shareholders of Astronics Corporation. As such, the net assets and equity of MOD-PAC CORP. were removed from the balance sheet of Astronics resulting in a reduction of the Company’s retained earnings and related net assets of $21.0 million. In December of 2002, the Company announced the discontinuance of its Electroluminescent Lamp Business Group, whose business had involved sales of micro-encapsulated electroluminescent lamps to customers in the consumer electronics industry. The operations of MOD-PAC CORP., through the spin-off date, and the operations of the Electroluminescent Lamp Business Group have been reported as discontinued operations in the financial statements of the Company. During 2005 and 2004, there was no income or loss from discontinued operations. During 2003, income from discontinued operations attributable to MOD-PAC CORP. was $0.4 million, and the Electroluminescent Lamp Business Group had a loss of $0.04 million. The business activity for the Electroluminescent Lamp Business Group was concluded during 2003.
DIVIDENDS
Management believes that it should retain the capital generated from operating activities for investment in advancing technologies, acquisitions and debt retirement. Accordingly, there are no plans to institute a cash dividend program.
BACKLOG
At December 31, 2005, the Company’s backlog was $96.1 million compared with $27.2 million at December 31, 2004. The Company acquired $45.9 million of backlog with the acquisition of Astronics AES.
RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
See the discussion in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 12, Discontinued Operations and Note 11 Related-Party Transactions in this report.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On December 16, 2004 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123(R) (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in Statement 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. Statement 123(R) must be adopted no later than January 1, 2006, which is when the Company will adopt it.
As permitted by Statement 123, the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using Opinion 25’s intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options. Accordingly, the adoption of Statement 123(R)’s fair value method will have an impact on our results of operations, although it will have no impact on our overall financial position. The impact of adoption of Statement 123(R) in 2006 is estimated to be approximately $0.4 million in additional expense after income taxes; however this will vary depending on levels of share-based payments granted in the future. Had we adopted Statement 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of Statement 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements. Statement 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after adoption.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” The amendments made by this statement clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The provisions of this statement are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 2004. The Company believes the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
ITEM 8.FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Astronics Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Astronics Corporation as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and 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 consolidated financial position of Astronics Corporation at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 13 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company restated its 2005 consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 8.FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA (Continued)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Restated)
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES
Description of the Business
Astronics Corporation, through its subsidiaries Luminescent Systems, Inc., Luminescent Systems-Canada Inc. and Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems Corp. (AES) designs and manufactures lighting components and subsystems, electrical power generation, in-flight control and power distribution systems for aircraft. Astronics (AES) was acquired On February 3, 2005 (See Note 10). The Company serves the three primary markets for aircraft which are the military, commercial transport and the business jet markets.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, except for MOD-PAC CORP., which is presented with discontinued operations through its spin-off date of March 14, 2003. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method and, accordingly, the operating results for the acquired companies are included in the consolidated statements of earnings from the respective dates of acquisition.
Revenue and Expense Recognition
Revenue is recognized on the accrual basis, generally at the time of shipment of goods. There are no significant contracts allowing for right of return. The Company does evaluate and record an allowance for any potential returns based on experience and any known circumstances. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 no allowances were recorded for contracts allowing for right of return. A trade receivable is recorded at the value of the sale. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company records a valuation allowance to account for potentially uncollectible accounts receivable. The allowance is determined based on Management’s knowledge of the business and specific customers and review and analysis of accounts receivable agings. After collection efforts have been exhausted, uncollected balances are charged off to the allowance. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable was $0.4 million, or 3% of gross accounts receivable. At December 31, 2004, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.3 million, or 4% of gross accounts receivable. In addition, at December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company fully reserved the balance of a non-current note receivable in the amount of $0.6 million
Cost of products sold includes the costs to manufacture products such as direct materials and labor and manufacturing overhead as well as all engineering and developmental costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses include costs primarily related to our sales and marketing departments and administrative departments. Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in costs of products sold.
The Company is engaged in a variety of engineering and design activities as well as basic research and development activities directed to the substantial improvement or new application of the Company’s existing technologies. These costs are expensed when incurred and included in cost of sales. Research and development and related engineering amounted to $8.9 million in 2005, $5.8 million in 2004 and $3.6 million in 2003.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based awards using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and its related interpretations.
The measurement prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25 does not recognize compensation expense if the exercise price of the stock option equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant and the number of stock options granted is fixed. Accordingly, no compensation expense related to stock options has been recorded in the financial statements.
The following table provides pro forma earnings information as if the Company recorded compensation expense based on the fair value of stock options:

Cash and Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase are considered cash equivalents.
Short-Term Investments
The Company’s short-term investments consist of marketable securities that are categorized as available for sale securities as defined by SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. The investment portfolio at December 31, 2004 consisted of Government Agency securities totaling $1.0 million. There was no unrealized gain or loss at December 31, 2004. There was no realized gain or loss for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined in accordance with the first-in, first-out method. Inventories at December 31 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2005 | | |
(in thousands) | | (Restated) | | 2004 |
|
Finished Goods | | $ | 3,026 | | | $ | 644 | |
Work in Progress | | | 7,805 | | | | 1,068 | |
Raw Material | | | 8,550 | | | | 5,398 | |
| | |
| | $ | 19,381 | | | $ | 7,110 | |
| | |
The Company records valuation reserves to provide for slow moving or obsolete inventory or to reduce inventory to the lower of cost or market value. In determining the appropriate reserve, Management considers overall inventory levels in relation to forecasted demands. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s reserve for inventory valuation was $4.8 million, or 19.8% of gross inventory. This is an increase of $4.1 million from $0.7 million at December 31, 2004 which represented 9% of gross inventories. Approximately $4.0 million of the increase was added as result of the AES acquisition on February 3, 2005.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed on the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and on accelerated methods for income tax purposes. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows: buildings, 40 years; machinery and equipment, 4-10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the lease or the lives of the assets, whichever is shorter.
The cost of properties sold or otherwise disposed of and the accumulated depreciation thereon are eliminated from the accounts, and the resulting gain or loss, as well as maintenance and repair expenses, are reflected in income. Replacements and improvements are capitalized.
Depreciation expense was $1.9 million, $1.0 million and $1.1 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Goodwill
The Company tests goodwill at the reporting unit level on an annual basis or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company has one reporting unit for purposes of the goodwill impairment test. The impairment test consists of comparing the fair value of the reporting unit, determined using discounted cash flows, with its carrying amount including goodwill, and, if the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount. An impairment loss would be recognized for the carrying amount of goodwill in excess of its implied fair value.
The Company recognized no goodwill as a result of the acquisition of Astronics AES in February 2005. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
(in thousands) | | 2005 | | 2004 |
|
Balance at January 1, | | $ | 2,615 | | | $ | 2,444 | |
Foreign currency translations | | | 71 | | | | 171 | |
| | |
Balance at December 31, | | $ | 2,686 | | | $ | 2,615 | |
| | |
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of tax benefits which are not expected to be realized. Investment tax credits are recognized on the flow through method.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share computations are based upon the following table:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2005 | | | | |
(in thousands, except per share data) | | (Restated) | | 2004 | | 2003 |

| | |
Net Income (loss) | | $ | .28 | | | $ | (.09 | ) | | $ | .14 | |
| | |
The effect of stock options has not been included for 2004 since this would be anti-dilutive as a result of the Company’s net loss.
Class B Stock
Class B Stock is identical to Common Stock, except Class B Stock has ten votes per share, is automatically converted to Common Stock on a one for one basis when sold or transferred, and cannot receive dividends unless an equal or greater amount is declared on Common Stock. At December 31, 2005, approximately 3.2 million shares of common stock were reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Class B stock, exercise of stock options and purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets to be held and used are initially recorded at cost. The carrying value of these assets is evaluated for recoverability whenever adverse effects or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairments are recognized if future undiscounted cash flows and earnings from operations are not expected to be sufficient to recover long-lived assets. The carrying amounts are then reduced by the estimated shortfall of the discounted cash flows.
Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable, long-term debt and an interest rate swap. The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments approximate fair value. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
Derivatives
The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use and resulting designation. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company’s use of derivative instruments is limited to a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk. For a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the derivative’s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings. The ineffective portions of all derivatives are recognized immediately into earnings as other income or expense. Ineffectiveness was not material in 2005, 2004, and 2003. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in earnings in the period of change. The Company classifies the cash flows from hedging transactions in the same category as the cash flows from the respective hedged items. The Company reclassified $0.1 million from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense and $0.2 million during each of the years 2004 and 2003. The Company entered into an interest rate swap in February 2006, on its New York Industrial Revenue Bond which effectively fixes the rate at 3.99% on this $4.3 million obligation through January 2016.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income (loss) consists primarily of net earnings and the after-tax impact of currency translation adjustments, mark to market adjustment for derivatives and minimum pension liability adjustments. Income taxes related to derivatives and minimum pension liability adjustments within other comprehensive income are generally recorded based on an effective tax rate of approximately 36%. No income taxes are recorded for currency translation adjustments.
The accumulated balances of the components of other comprehensive income net of tax, at December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows: accumulated foreign currency translation $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively; and accumulated mark to market adjustment for derivatives $0.0 million and $(0.1) million, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004),Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95,Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in Statement 123(R) is similar to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123(R)requiresall share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. Statement 123(R) must be adopted as of the first quarter of 2006, which is when the Company will adopt it.
As permitted by Statement 123, the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using Opinion 25’s intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options. Accordingly, the adoption of Statement 123(R)’s fair value method will impact on the results of operations, although it will have no impact on overall financial position. The impact of adoption of Statement 123(R) in 2006 is estimated to be approximately $0.4 million in additional expense after income taxes; however this will vary depending on levels of share-based payments granted in the future and variations in the factors impacting the expense calculation such as; stock price volatility, risk free interest rates, dividend yields and expected life. Had the Company adopted Statement 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of Statement 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net (loss) income and (loss) earnings per share previously in Note 1 under Stock-Based Compensation.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” The amendments made by this statement clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The provisions of this statement are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 2005. The Company believes the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
NOTE 2 LONG-TERM DEBT AND NOTE PAYABLE
Long-term debt consists of the following:
| | | | | | | | |
(in thousands) | | 2005 | | 2004 |
|
Note Payable at Canadian Prime payable $12 monthly through 2016 with interest (Canadian prime was 5.00% at December 31, 2005) | | $ | 1,538 | | | $ | 1,618 | |
Industrial Revenue Bonds issued through the Erie County, New York Industrial Development Agency payable $350 annually through 2019 with interest reset weekly (3.6% at December 31, 2005) | | | 4,345 | | | | 4,695 | |
Industrial Revenue Bonds issued through the Business Finance Authority of the State of New Hampshire payable $400 annually through 2018 with interest reset weekly (3.6% at December 31, 2005) | | | 5,250 | | | | 5,650 | |

| | |
| | $ | 10,304 | | | $ | 11,154 | |
| | |
Principal maturities of long-term debt for each of the next five years are $0.9 million.
No interest costs were capitalized in 2005, 2004, and 2003.
The Company is in compliance with all its debt and credit facility covenants at December 31, 2005 and believes it will continue to be compliant in the future.
The Industrial Revenue Bonds are held by institutional investors and are guaranteed by a bank letter of credit, which is collateralized by certain property, plant and equipment assets, the carrying value of which approximates the principal balance on the bonds.
The Company has a standby unsecured bank letter of credit guaranteeing the note payable in Canada, the carrying value of which approximates the principal balance on the note.
To offset risks due to fluctuation in interest rates, the Company entered into an interest rate swap on the New York Industrial Revenue Bond through December 2005 which effectively fixed the interest rate at 4.09%. In February 2006, the Company entered into a new interest rate swap, on its New York Industrial Revenue Bond which effectively fixes the rate at 3.99% on this $4.3 million obligation through January 2016.
In February, 2005 the Company borrowed $7.0 million on its unsecured revolving credit facility for its acquisition of Astronics AES. On March 18, 2005 the Company received an amended agreement from HSBC Bank USA to increase the revolving credit facility to $15 million. At December 31, 2005 the Company had $7.0 million outstanding on its revolving credit facility; with interest at bank prime or LIBOR plus 175 basis points. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $8 million available on the facility. It may be converted into a four-year term loan at any time. The credit facility is renewed annually.

In 2003, 433,754 options at a weighted average exercise price of $7.36 per share were adjusted to maintain their intrinsic value as a result of the MOD-PAC CORP. spin-off. The adjustment had the affect of increasing the number of options outstanding to 538,931 at a weighted average exercise price of $5.93 per share. The adjustment was determined by reference to the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the time of the Distribution; so as to equalize the intrinsic value of the stock options before and after the Distribution. Under SEC regulations, fair value for this purpose is defined as the last trade before and the first trade immediately following the Distribution.

The Company established Incentive Stock Option Plans for the purpose of attracting and retaining executive officers and key employees, and to align management’s interest with those of the shareholders. Generally, the options must be exercised within ten years from the grant date and vest ratably over a five-year period. The exercise price for the options is equal to the fair market value at the date of grant. The Company had options outstanding for 610,834 shares under the plans. At December 31, 2005, 514,761 options were available for future grant under the plan established in 2001.
The Company established the Directors Stock Option Plans for the purpose of attracting and retaining the services of experienced and knowledgeable outside directors, and to align their interest with those of the shareholders. The options must be exercised within ten years from the grant date. The exercise price for the option is equal to the fair market value at the date of grant. The Company had options outstanding for 190,749 shares under the plans at December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2005, 205,602 options were available for future grant under the plans established in 1997 and 2005.
The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2005 | | 2004 | | 2003 |
| | |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 4.40 | % | | | 4.25 | % | | | 5.5 | % |
Dividend yield | | | 0.0 | % | | | 0.0 | % | | | 0.0 | % |
Volatility factor | | | 0.33 | | | | 0.30 | | | | 0.35 | |
Expected life | | 8.1 years | | 7.0 years | | 7.0 years |
The weighted average fair value of options granted during 2005, 2004, and 2003 was $3.97, $2.30 and $3.16, respectively.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.
Astronics established the Employee Stock Purchase Plan to encourage employees to invest in Astronics. The plan provides employees that have been with the company for at least a year the opportunity to invest up to 20% of their cash compensation (up to an annual maximum of $20,000) in Astronics common stock at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value of the Astronics common stock, determined each October 1. Employees are allowed to enroll annually. Employees indicate the number of shares they wish to obtain through the program and their intention to pay for the shares through payroll deductions over the annual cycle of October 1 through September 30. Employees can withdraw anytime during the annual cycle, and all money withheld from the employees pay is returned with interest. If an employee remains enrolled in the program, enough money will have been withheld from the employees’ pay during the year to pay for all the shares that the employee opted for under the program. At December 31, 2005, employees had subscribed to purchase 75,380 shares at $8.16 per share on September 30, 2006.
NOTE 4 INCOME TAXES
Pretax losses from the Company’s foreign subsidiary amounted to $(0.5) million, $(1.0) million and $(0.2) million for 2005, 2004 and 2003 respectively. The balances of pretax earnings for each of those years were domestic.

NOTE 5 PROFIT SHARING/401(k) PLAN
The Company has a qualified Profit Sharing/401(k) Plan for the benefit of its eligible full-time employees. The Profit Sharing/401(k) Plan provides for annual contributions based on percentages of pretax income. In addition, employees may contribute a portion of their salary to the 401(k) plan which is partially matched by the Company. The plan may be amended or terminated at any time. Total charges to income from continuing operations for the plan were $1.0 million, $0.5 million and $0.5 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
NOTE 6 SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN AND RELATED POST RETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Company has a nonqualified supplemental retirement defined benefit plan (the “Plan”) for certain current and retired executives. The Plan provides for benefits based upon average annual compensation and years of service, less offsets for Social Security and Profit Sharing benefits. It is the Company’s intent to fund the benefits as they become payable. The following table sets forth the benefit obligation and amounts recognized in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 along with the net periodic cost for the years ended 2005, 2004 and 2003. The measurement date for determining the Plan obligation and cost is December 31.

The assumptions used to determine the net periodic cost are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2005 | | 2004 | | 2003 |
| | |
Discount Rate | | | 5.75 | % | | | 6.00 | % | | | 6.50 | % |
Future Average Compensation Increases | | | 5.00 | % | | | 5.00 | % | | | 5.00 | % |
The benefit obligation represents the actuarial present value of benefits attributed to employee service rendered; assuming future compensation levels are used to measure the obligation. FASB Statement No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions,” requires the Company to recognize a minimum pension liability equal to the actuarial present value of the accumulated benefit obligations. An intangible asset is required and has been recorded to the extent that the excess of the accumulated benefit obligation over the pension cost recognized relates to prior service costs. The accumulated benefit obligation was $4.8 million and $4.9 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Company expects the benefits to be paid in each of the next five years to be $0.3 million and in the aggregate for the next five years after that $1.7 million. This also is the expected Company contribution to the plan, since the plan is unfunded.
Participants in the nonqualified supplemental retirement plan are entitled to paid medical, dental and long term care insurance benefits upon retirement under the plan. The measurement date for determining the plan obligation and cost is December 31. The following table sets forth the benefit obligation and amounts recognized in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 and 2004:

The assumed discount rate used to calculate the post retirement benefit obligations was 5.50% at December 31, 2005 and 5.75% at December 31, 2004. The assumed discount rate used to calculate the net periodic cost was 5.75% for 2005, 6.0% for 2004, and 6.5% for 2003. For measurement purposes, a 12% annual increase in the cost of health care benefits was assumed for 2005 and 2004 respectively, gradually decreasing to 5.0% in 2012 and years thereafter. A one percentage point increase in this rate would increase the post retirement benefit obligation by approximately $0.1 million, and a one percentage point decrease in this rate would decrease the post retirement benefit obligation by approximately $0.1 million. The Company expects the benefits to be paid in each of the next five years to be $0.04 million and in the aggregate for the next five years after that $0.25 million. This also is the expected Company contribution to the plan, since the plan is unfunded.

NOTE 10 ACQUISITION AND PROFORMA INFORMATION
On February 3, 2005, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the General Dynamics — Airborne Electronic Systems (AES) business unit from a subsidiary of General Dynamics. Astronics AES produces a wide range of products related to electrical power generation, in-flight control, and distribution on military, commercial, and business aircraft. The acquisition compliments the Company’s advanced lighting and electronic systems for the global aerospace industry. On the acquisition date, the Company paid $13.0 million in cash and incurred approximately $0.4 million in acquisition costs. The Company borrowed $7.0 million on its credit facility and used $6.4 million of cash on hand to finance the purchase and acquisition costs.
For the year ended December 31, 2004 AES had a net loss of approximately $5.0 million on sales of $26.0 million. The loss was primarily a result of costs relating to a development program that included significant termination fees
In the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company reversed a $3.2 million contingent payment liability recorded in the second quarter. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 141(SFAS 141) - - Business Combinations, requires that when a business combination involves contingent consideration that might result in recognition of additional cost of the acquired entity when the consideration is resolved, an amount equal to the lesser of the maximum contingent consideration or the excess of fair value over the cost of the acquired entity is recognized as if it were a liability. When the contingency is resolved and the consideration is issued any excess of consideration over the amount that was recognized as a liability is recognized as additional cost of the acquired entity. If the amount initially recognized as if it was a liability exceeds the consideration issued, that excess is allocated as a pro rata reduction of the amounts assigned to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets acquired. At December 31, 2005, no contingent consideration exists and the excess fair value was allocated as a pro rata reduction to amounts assigned to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets acquired. This affected the preliminary allocation of the purchase price for assets that are depreciated and amortized thus having an impact on depreciation and amortization expense related to those assets. The adjustment to depreciation and amortization expense for those adjustments has been recorded in the fourth quarter and amounted to $0.2 million after income taxes.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition.

After consideration of all types of intangibles that are typically associated with an acquired business, including those referenced in SFAS No. 141, a portion of the purchase price was ascribed only to those applicable identifiable intangible assets that had value. Identifiable intangible assets are comprised of patents, trade names, completed and unpatented technology, certain government contracts and backlog orders, all of which have been valued based upon future economic benefits such as discounted earnings and cash flows. Amortization expense amounted to $0.3 million in 2005 for these identifiable intangible assets.

NOTE 11 RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
From January 1, 2003 through March 14, 2003, the spin-off date, MOD-PAC CORP., an Astronics subsidiary, performed printing and order fulfillment services for VistaPrint Corporation, resulting in sales of $2.2 million. Robert S. Keane, who is a shareholder in and the chief executive officer of VistaPrint Corporation, is the son of Kevin T. Keane, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. In addition, Kevin T. Keane is a shareholder in VistaPrint Corporation holding less than 5% of its capital stock.
NOTE 12 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On September 26, 2002, Astronics announced the spin-off of its wholly owned subsidiary MOD-PAC CORP., which operated the Printing and Packaging segment. The spin-off was completed on March 14, 2003, at such time the net assets and equity of MOD-PAC CORP. was removed from the balance sheet of the Company resulting in a reduction of the Company’s equity, primarily retained earnings and related net assets of approximately $21 million. The spin-off was accomplished through Astronics payment of a dividend to its shareholders in the form of the outstanding shares of MOD-PAC CORP. stock (the Distribution). The net assets and equity of MOD-PAC CORP. were reduced by a $7.0 million dividend to the Company. No gain or loss was recorded in connection with the spin-off of MOD-PAC CORP.
In December 2002, Astronics announced the discontinuance of the Electroluminescent Lamp Business Group, whose primary business has involved sales of microencapsulated EL lamps to customers in the consumer electronics industry. As a result of the discontinuance of the Electroluminescent Lamp Business Group, Astronics recorded estimated losses on disposition and other exit-related costs as losses on discontinued operations in the quarter ending December 31, 2002, of $.7 million after applicable income tax benefit. This charge consisted mostly of severance, inventory and equipment-related expenses. All liabilities relating to this discontinued operation have been settled by December 31, 2005. These liabilities consisted of minimum lease payments under operating leases.
Operating results of discontinued operations are summarized:

The Company and MOD-PAC CORP. entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement, which governs the Company’s and MOD-PAC’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations after the Distribution with respect to taxes for the periods ending on or before Distribution. Generally, pre-Distribution taxes that are clearly attributable to the business of one party will be borne solely by that party, and other pre-Distribution taxes will be shared by the parties based upon a formula set forth in the Tax Sharing Agreement. In addition, under the Tax Sharing Agreement, liability for taxes that are incurred as a result of the restructuring activities undertaken to implement the Distribution will be borne 60% by Astronics and 40% by MOD-PAC CORP. If the Distribution fails to qualify as a tax-free distribution under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code because of an acquisition of our stock or assets, or some other action of ours, then the Company will be solely liable for any resulting corporate taxes.
The Company and MOD-PAC CORP. entered into an Interim Services Agreement, whereby Astronics provided MOD-PAC, on an interim transitional basis, payroll processing, general ledger preparation, financial reporting, training, shareholder relations, risk management and benefits administration services. The agreed upon charges for such services were generally intended to allow Astronics to fully recover the allocated direct costs of providing the services, plus all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, without profit and were allocated between MOD-PAC and Astronics, on a fifty-fifty basis. Amounts received from MOD-PAC for such services in 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $0.0 million, $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and were accounted for as a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses.
NOTE 13 RESTATEMENT
The Company has restated its previously issued financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 to correct an error which reduces revenue previously reported on the income statement for the year ended December 31, 2005 by $1.0 million and net income by $0.4 million.

ITEM 9A.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Company Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report, to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is made known to them on a timely basis, and that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. However, as described below in “Application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” during the Company’s 2006 year-end audit the Company became aware that its revenue recognition policy with regard to a bill and hold arrangement with one customer did not meet all of the criteria necessary to allow it to recognize revenue for the transaction while the product remained in the Company’s facility. As such Management has concluded that a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting existed at December 31, 2005.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting except as discussed below.
Application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
During the Company’s 2006 year-end audit the Company became aware that its revenue recognition policy with regard to a bill and hold arrangement with one customer did not meet all of the criteria necessary to allow it to recognize revenue for the transaction while the product remained in the Company’s facility. As such Management has concluded that a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting existed at December 31, 2005. The Company believes it has taken action to remediate the weakness that includes training with regard to bill and hold arrangements and approval of any proposed bill and hold arrangement by the CEO and CFO of the Company.
