ORBITAL SCIENCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2005 and 2004
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
Orbital Sciences Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Orbital” or the “company”), a Delaware corporation, develops and manufactures small rockets and space systems for commercial, military and civil government customers. The company’s primary products are satellites and launch vehicles, including low-orbit, geosynchronous and planetary spacecraft for communications, remote sensing, scientific and defense missions; ground- and air-launched rockets that deliver satellites into orbit; and missile defense systems that are used as interceptor and target vehicles. Orbital also offers space-related technical services to government agencies and develops and builds satellite-based transportation management systems for public transit agencies and private vehicle fleet operators.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation on a going concern basis. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to instructions, rules and regulations prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The company believes that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
(2) Preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions, including estimates of future contract costs and earnings. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and earnings during the current reporting period. Management periodically assesses and evaluates the adequacy and/or deficiency of estimated liabilities recorded for various reserves, liabilities, contract risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
All financial amounts are stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

(3) Stock-Based Compensation
In December 2004, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” was issued. SFAS No. 123(R) amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to require companies to recognize as expense the fair value of all employee stock-based awards, including stock option grants. The company expects to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, using the modified prospective application method, as defined under SFAS No. 123(R). The company is currently assessing the expected impact on its consolidated 2006 financial statements and the anticipated changes to its compensation strategies, if any.
Through June 30, 2005, the company applied the provisions of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation¾ Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” Under those provisions, the company has provided pro forma net income and earnings per share disclosures for its employee stock option grants as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied (see below). The company has not recorded any compensation cost associated with stock options issued to date since all such options had an exercise price equal to the market value of the company’s common stock on the date of grant.
The company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the pro forma impact under SFAS Nos. 123 and 148 on the company’s net income and earnings per share. The model utilizes certain information, such as the interest rate on a risk-free security maturing generally at the same time as the option being valued, and requires certain assumptions, such as the expected amount of time an option will be outstanding until it is exercised or it expires, to calculate the fair value of stock options granted. This information and the assumptions used for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 are summarized as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Quarters Ended June 30, | |
| | 2005 | | | 2004 | |
Additional shares authorized for grant at June 30 | | | 2,991,189 | | | | 430,073 | |
Volatility | | | 60 | % | | | 65 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 3.78 | % | | | 3.10 | % |
Weighted-average fair value per share at grant date | | $ | 4.27 | | | $ | 4.92 | |
Expected dividend yield | | | — | | | | — | |
Expected life of options (years) | | | 3.5 | | | | 2.5 | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2005 | | | 2004 | |

Expected dividend yield | | | — | | | | — | |
Expected life of options (years) | | | 3.5 | | | | 2.5 - 4.5 | |

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to its stock option plan(in thousands, except per share amounts):
| | | | | | | | |
| | Quarters Ended June 30, | |

Diluted—as reported | | $ | 0.22 | | | $ | 0.34 | |
Diluted—pro forma | | $ | 0.20 | | | $ | 0.28 | |
Pro forma net income reflects only options granted through June 30, 2005 and, therefore, may not be representative of the effects for future periods.
(4) Industry Segment Information
Orbital’s space-related products and services are grouped into three reportable segments: (i) launch vehicles, (ii) satellites and related space systems and (iii) transportation management systems. Reportable segments are generally organized based upon product lines. Corporate and other is comprised of the elimination of intercompany revenues and certain corporate items that have not been attributed to a particular segment.
Intersegment sales of $1.5 million and $2.6 million were recorded in the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Intersegment sales of $3.8 million and $4.5 million were recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The fair value of the company’s senior notes at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was estimated at $138.1 million and $142.5 million, respectively, based on market trading activity.
The company has a $50.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) with Bank of America serving as the lead arranger. The company has the option to increase the amount of the Revolver up to $25 million to the extent that any one or more lenders commit to be a lender for such amount. Loans under the Revolver bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.25% or at a prime rate plus a margin ranging from zero to 0.75%, with the applicable margin in each case varying according to the company’s ratio of total debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Revolver is collateralized by the company’s intellectual property and accounts receivable. Up to $40.0 million of the Revolver may be reserved for letters of credit. As of June 30, 2005, there were no borrowings under the Revolver, although $12.5 million of letters of credit were issued under the Revolver. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2005, $37.5 million of the Revolver was available for borrowing.
Orbital’s 9% senior notes due 2011 and the Revolver contain covenants limiting the company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional debt, pay cash dividends, make investments, redeem or repurchase Orbital stock, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with others and dispose of assets or create liens on assets. In addition, the Revolver contains financial covenants with respect to leverage, secured leverage, fixed charge coverage, consolidated net worth and the ratio of accounts receivable to senior secured indebtedness. As of June 30, 2005, the company was in compliance with all of these covenants.
In 2003, the company entered into an eight-year interest rate swap agreement with a financial institution on a notional amount of $50.0 million, whereby the company would receive fixed-rate interest of 9% in exchange for variable interest payments. This arrangement was designated an effective fair value hedge of $50.0 million of the company’s 9% senior notes due 2011. In June 2005, the company terminated the swap agreement and received $1.5 million in cash. The
10
remaining debt fair value adjustment of $1.5 million will be amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining term of the senior notes.
(11) Commitments and Contingencies
U.S. Government Contracts
Most of the company’s U.S. government contracts are funded incrementally on a year-to-year basis. Changes in government policies, priorities or funding levels through agency or program budget reductions by the U.S. Congress or executive agencies could materially adversely affect the company’s financial condition or results of operations. Furthermore, contracts with the U.S. government may be terminated or suspended by the U.S. government at any time, with or without cause. Such contract suspensions or terminations could result in unreimbursable expenses or charges or otherwise adversely affect the company’s financial condition and/or results of operations.
In the second quarter of 2005, the federal government commenced an investigation which the company believes is focused on contracting matters related to certain U.S. government launch vehicle programs. The company cannot predict whether the government ultimately will conclude that there have been violations of any federal contracting laws, policies or procedures, or any other applicable laws. Should any such violations be alleged or found, the company could face the possibility of criminal, civil and/or administrative penalties depending on the nature of such violations.
Litigation
The company is party to certain litigation or other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of such legal matters will not have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations or financial condition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
With the exception of historical information, the matters discussed below under the headings “Consolidated Results of Operations for the Quarters and Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004,” “Segment Results,” “Backlog,” “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” and elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. A number of important factors, including those identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, may cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or expected in any forward-looking statement. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
We develop and manufacture small rockets and space systems for commercial, military and civil government customers. Our primary products are satellites and launch vehicles, including low-orbit, geosynchronous and planetary spacecraft for communications, remote sensing, scientific and defense missions; ground- and air-launched rockets that deliver satellites into orbit; and missile defense systems that are used as interceptor and target vehicles. We also offer space-related technical services to government agencies and develop and build satellite-based transportation management systems for public transit agencies and private vehicle fleet operators.
Consolidated Results of Operations for the Quarters and Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004
Revenues- Our consolidated revenues were $177.4 million in the second quarter of 2005, down slightly compared to $177.7 million for the same quarter of 2004. This decrease was driven by lower revenues in the satellites and related space systems and the transportation management systems segments, offset partially by a 2% increase in launch vehicles segment revenues. Satellites and related space systems segment revenues decreased marginally due to lower revenues from the satellite product lines, partially offset by higher technical services revenues and by $2.7 million of revenues recorded in 2005 pertaining to the receipt of satellite acceptance and on-orbit incentive payments from our customer and former affiliate Orbimage, Inc. Launch vehicles segment revenues increased slightly in the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004 due to revenue growth in the interceptor launch vehicles and target launch vehicles product lines, offset partially by a revenue decrease in the space launch vehicles product line. Transportation management systems segment revenues decreased $1.8 million in the 2005 quarter largely due to certain contracts nearing or reaching completion in 2005.
We reported $344.6 million in revenues during the first six months of 2005, up 5% over revenues of $329.1 million during the same period in 2004, primarily due to an 8% revenue increase in our satellites and related space systems segment and a 3% increase in the launch vehicles segment. The satellites and related space systems segment growth was driven by significantly higher revenues from science, technology and defense satellite contracts, offset partially by lower revenues in our communications satellites product line. The launch vehicles
12
segment growth was driven by higher revenues in the interceptor launch vehicles and target launch vehicles product lines, partially offset by lower space launch vehicles product line revenues. Transportation management systems segment revenues decreased for the first six months of 2005 primarily due to the same factors driving the second quarter results.
Gross Profit — Our consolidated gross profit was $32.5 million and $29.7 million in the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively. The gross profit improvement is due to a $3.2 million, or 23%, increase in gross profit in our launch vehicles segment and a $0.2 million, or 17%, increase in gross profit in our transportation management systems segment, partially offset by a $0.6 million, or 4%, decrease in gross profit in our satellites and related space systems segment. The increase in gross profit in our launch vehicles segment was largely due to a higher profit margin from the interceptor launch vehicles product line and an unfavorable profit adjustment on a Taurus rocket contract recorded in the second quarter of 2004 that did not recur in 2005, partially offset by cost growth on certain contracts in 2005. The decrease in gross profit in our satellites and related space systems segment was largely due to lower gross profit in the communications satellite product line, partially offset by a favorable $2.7 million profit adjustment pertaining to the receipt of the above-mentioned satellite incentives.
Consolidated gross profit for the first six months of 2005 increased to $60.3 million from $54.6 million in the same period of 2004. The gross profit improvement is due to a $5.6 million, or 21%, increase in gross profit in our launch vehicles segment and a $0.5 million, or 18%, increase in gross profit in our transportation management systems segment, partially offset by a $0.4 million, or 1%, decrease in gross profit in our satellites and related space systems segment. The year-to-date changes in gross profit during 2005 as compared to 2004 were largely attributable to the same quarterly factors described above.
Research and Development Expenses — Research and development expenses were $1.2 million and $1.5 million in the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $2.3 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These expenses related to the development of improved launch vehicles and satellites.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses — Selling, general and administrative expenses were $16.5 million and $13.7 million in the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $31.1 million and $25.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased in the second quarter and the first six months of 2005 as compared to the same periods of 2004 largely due to increased personnel related costs, higher legal and professional services fees and an increase in bid and proposal costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses include the costs of marketing, advertising, promotional and other selling expenses, as well as the costs of our finance, legal, administrative and general management functions.
Settlement Expense — In the first quarter of 2004, we recorded a $2.5 million gain as a credit to settlement expense on the sale of senior subordinated notes which we had received from a former affiliate.
13
Interest Expense — Interest expense was $2.8 million and $2.9 million for the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $5.6 million and $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Income Taxes — In the fourth quarter of 2004, we reversed nearly all of our deferred tax valuation allowance due to our assessment that substantially all of our deferred tax assets are more likely than not realizable. This resulted in our recording significantly higher income tax expense beginning in 2005, nearly all of which is offset by net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets, resulting in minimal cash tax payments. We recorded $5.0 million and $9.0 million of income tax expense, at an effective income tax rate of 39.7%, in the second quarter and first six months of 2005, respectively. Our cash income tax payments, which primarily relate to alternative minimum tax (“AMT”), are currently less than 2% of pretax income. In the second quarter and first six months of 2004, we recorded $0.2 million and $0.5 million of income tax expense, respectively, primarily related to AMT.
Net Income — Our consolidated net income was $7.6 million and $11.1 million in the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $13.7 million and $22.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Segment Results
Our products and services are grouped into three reportable segments: (i) launch vehicles, (ii) satellites and related space systems and (iii) transportation management systems. All of our other activities, as well as consolidating eliminations and adjustments, are reported in corporate and other.

Second Quarter 2005 Compared With Second Quarter 2004
Launch Vehicles — Launch vehicles segment revenues increased 2% primarily due to higher revenues from our interceptor launch vehicles and our target launch vehicles product lines, partially offset by a decrease in revenues from our space launch vehicles product line. In our interceptor launch vehicles product line, we are developing and manufacturing interceptor boosters designed to defend against ballistic missile attacks, including the midcourse-phase Orbital Boost Vehicle (OBV) and the boost-phase Kinetic Energy Interceptors (KEI) programs directed by the U.S. Missile Defense Agency. Revenues from this product line grew $2.3 million quarter-over-quarter, due to a ramp-up in KEI program activity offset partially by lower OBV revenue. The interceptor launch vehicles product line accounted for 59% and 57% of total launch vehicles segment revenues in the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively. Revenues in our target launch vehicles product line increased $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to 2004 due primarily to a higher level of activity on target vehicles in 2005. Revenues decreased $5.7 million in our space launch vehicles product line due primarily to lower levels of activity on Taurus and Minotaur programs.
Operating income in the launch vehicles segment increased 21% primarily due to improved operating results in the interceptor launch vehicles product line and an unfavorable profit adjustment on a Taurus space launch vehicle contract recorded in the second quarter of 2004 that did not recur in 2005, partially offset by cost growth on certain contracts in 2005. Operating income from our missile defense interceptor launch vehicles product line continued to be the largest contributor to this segment’s operating income, reporting $7.4 million of operating profit in the second quarter of 2005 and $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2004, or 84% and 78%, respectively, of total operating income in this segment. Although space launch vehicles revenues were lower, operating profit improved in this product line due to the above-mentioned Taurus adjustment that had depressed 2004 results. Although target launch vehicles revenues were higher, operating results declined in this product line primarily due to cost growth impacting several contracts. Segment operating margin (operating income as a percentage of revenues) was 9.9% in the second quarter of 2005, compared to 8.3% in the second quarter of 2004. This increase in operating margin was primarily the result of improved interceptor launch vehicles margins and the 2004 Taurus contract profit adjustment discussed above.
Satellites and Related Space Systems — Satellites and related space systems segment revenues decreased marginally as a result of lower revenues in our communications satellites product line, offset partially by a net increase in revenues in our other product lines. Revenues decreased $3.0 million in our communications satellites product line primarily due to lower activity on certain contracts, offset partially by activity on a new satellite contract begun in the second quarter of 2005. Revenues increased $2.0 million in our other product lines primarily due to higher technical services revenues and a favorable $2.7 million revenue adjustment, offset partially by lower activity on certain science satellites in 2005. In the second quarter of 2005 we recorded $2.7 million of revenues pertaining to the receipt of satellite acceptance and on-orbit incentive payments from Orbimage, Inc., our customer and former affiliate.
15
Operating income in the satellites and related space systems segment decreased due to lower operating results in the communications satellites product line, partially offset by higher income in our other product lines. The decline in communications satellites operating results was primarily due to cost growth on a contract to correct an anomaly that was detected while the satellite was being prepared for launch. The increase in our other product lines was primarily due to $2.7 million of acceptance and incentive fees discussed above and higher technical services income offset partially by lower income on certain defense-related contracts. Segment operating margin was 6.5% in the second quarter of 2005, compared to 8.1% in the second quarter of 2004. This decrease in operating margin was largely due to the communications satellite cost growth noted above.
Transportation Management Systems — Transportation management systems segment revenues decreased largely due to certain contracts completed recently and other contracts that are nearly complete. Operating income remained relatively consistent quarter-over-quarter.
Corporate and Other — Corporate and other revenues are comprised solely of the elimination of intercompany revenues.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared With Six Months Ended June 30, 2004
Launch Vehicles — Launch vehicles segment revenues increased 3% primarily due to higher revenues from our interceptor launch vehicles and our target launch vehicles product lines, partially offset by a decrease in revenues from our space launch vehicles product line. Revenues from the interceptor launch vehicles product line grew $5.6 million, due to a ramp-up in KEI program activity offset partially by lower OBV revenue. The interceptor launch vehicles product line accounted for 58% and 56% of total launch vehicles segment revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Revenues in our target launch vehicles product line increased $8.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to 2004 due primarily to a higher level of activity on target vehicles in 2005. Revenues decreased $9.1 million in our space launch vehicles product line due primarily to lower levels of activity on Taurus and Minotaur programs.
Operating income in the launch vehicles segment increased 25% primarily attributable to improved operating results in the interceptor launch vehicles product line and an unfavorable profit adjustment on a Taurus space launch vehicle contract recorded in the first half of 2004 that did not recur in 2005, partially offset by cost growth on certain contracts in 2005. Operating income from our missile defense interceptor launch vehicles product line continued to be the largest contributor to this segment’s operating income, reporting $13.3 million operating profit year-to-date in 2005 and $11.7 million in the same period of 2004. Although space launch vehicles revenues were lower, operating profit improved in this product line due to the above-mentioned Taurus adjustment that had depressed 2004 results. Although target launch vehicles revenues were higher, operating results declined in this product line primarily due to cost growth impacting several contracts. Segment operating margin was 10.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to 8.7% in the same period of 2004. This increase in operating margin was
16
primarily the result of improved interceptor launch vehicles margins and the 2004 Taurus contract profit adjustment discussed above.
Satellites and Related Space Systems — Satellites and related space systems segment revenues increased 8% primarily as a result of significantly higher revenues from science, technology and defense satellite contracts, offset partially by lower revenues in our communications satellites product line. Revenues increased $18.9 million in our science, technology and defense satellites product line primarily due to increased revenues from defense-related contracts awarded in 2004 and late 2003 and in part due to the $2.7 million revenue adjustment related to customer incentive receipts discussed above. Revenues decreased $11.2 million in our communications satellites product line primarily due to lower activity on certain contracts, offset partially by revenue on a new contract begun in the second quarter of 2005 discussed previously. Our technical services revenues increased $4.4 million.
Operating income in the satellites and related space systems segment decreased due to lower operating results in the communications satellites product line, partially offset by higher income in our other product lines. The decline in communications satellites operating results was primarily due to reduced contract activity in 2005 and to cost growth on a contract to correct an anomaly that was detected while the satellite was being prepared for launch. The increase in our other product lines was primarily due to the favorable $2.7 million revenue and operating profit adjustment discussed above and higher technical services income offset partially by lower income on certain defense related contracts. Segment operating margin was 5.0% in the first six months of 2005, compared to 7.4% in the same period of 2004. This decrease in operating margin was largely due to the communications satellite cost growth noted above.
Transportation Management Systems — Transportation management systems segment revenues decreased largely due to certain contracts completed recently and other contracts that are nearly complete. Operating income remained relatively level, consistent with second quarter results.
Corporate and Other — Corporate and other revenues are comprised solely of the elimination of intercompany revenues.
Corporate and other operating income in the first half of 2004 is comprised solely of the gain on the sale of notes received from a former affiliate discussed above.
Backlog
Our firm backlog was $1.04 billion at June 30, 2005 and $1.17 billion at December 31, 2004. We expect $320 million of the June 30, 2005 firm backlog to be recognized as revenue during the remainder of 2005. Firm backlog consists of aggregate contract values for firm product orders, excluding the portion previously included in revenues, and including government contract orders not yet funded and our estimate of potential award fees.
17
Total backlog was $2.66 billion at June 30, 2005 and $2.31 billion at December 31, 2004. Total backlog includes firm backlog in addition to unexercised options, indefinite-quantity contracts and undefinitized orders and contract award selections.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows from Operating Activities — Cash flow from operations in the first six months of 2005 was $30.2 million, as compared to $52.2 million in the same period of 2004. Cash flow from operations in the first six months of 2005 was primarily attributable to cash provided by ongoing business operations. Cash flow from operations in the first six months of 2004 was primarily attributable to cash generated by business operations and a $21.8 million net reduction in assets and liabilities, including $9.2 million in customer cash payments received in advance of contract performance and a $15.6 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities — We used $8.1 million and $5.2 million in the first six months of 2005 and 2004, respectively, for capital expenditures. In the first six months of 2005, we reduced cash restricted for letters of credit by $3.0 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities – During the second quarter of 2005, we repurchased and retired 1.94 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $20.0 million. During the second quarter of 2004, we repurchased and retired 0.16 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $2.0 million, and we repurchased and cancelled $4.6 million of our 9% senior notes. We paid a $0.4 million premium in connection with our repurchase of the 9% senior notes.
During the first six months of 2005, we received $1.3 million from issuances of common stock in connection with stock option exercises. During the first six months of 2004, we received $7.0 million from issuances of common stock primarily in connection with stock option and warrant exercises.
The following table sets forth our long-term obligations, excluding capital lease obligations(in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |

The fair value of our senior notes at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was estimated at $138.1 million and $142.5 million, respectively, based on market trading activity.
We have a $50.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) with Bank of America serving as the lead arranger. We have the option to increase the amount of the Revolver up to $25 million to the extent that any one or more lenders commit to be a lender for such amount. Loans under the Revolver bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.25% or
18
at a prime rate plus a margin ranging from zero to 0.75%, with the applicable margin in each case varying according to our ratio of total debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Revolver is collateralized by our intellectual property and accounts receivable. Up to $40.0 million of the Revolver may be reserved for letters of credit. As of June 30, 2005, there were no borrowings under the Revolver, although $12.5 million of letters of credit were issued under the Revolver. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2005, $37.5 million of the Revolver was available for borrowing.
Our 9% senior notes due 2011 and the Revolver contain covenants limiting our ability to, among other things, incur additional debt, pay cash dividends, make investments, redeem or repurchase Orbital stock, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with others and dispose of assets or create liens on assets. In addition, the Revolver contains financial covenants with respect to leverage, secured leverage, fixed charge coverage, consolidated net worth and the ratio of accounts receivable to senior secured indebtedness. As of June 30, 2005, we were in compliance with all of these covenants.
In 2003, we entered into an eight-year interest rate swap agreement with a financial institution on a notional amount of $50.0 million, whereby we would receive fixed-rate interest of 9% in exchange for variable interest payments. This arrangement was designated an effective fair value hedge of $50.0 million of our 9% senior notes due 2011. In June 2005, we terminated the swap agreement and received $1.5 million in cash in connection with the termination. The remaining debt fair value adjustment of $1.5 million will be amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining term of the senior notes.
Available Cash and Future Funding — At June 30, 2005, we had $131.8 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that available cash, cash expected to be generated from operations and borrowing capacity under the Revolver will be sufficient to fund our operating and capital expenditure requirements in the foreseeable future.
In April 2005, our Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to $50 million of our outstanding securities over a 12-month period. We may repurchase our 9% senior notes due 2011, common stock or common stock warrants that expire in 2006, or a combination thereof. Shares of common stock may be purchased from time to time in the open market, by block purchase or in negotiated transactions. The warrants and notes may be purchased in negotiated transactions. The timing, amount and type of securities to be repurchased will be determined based on our loan covenants, market conditions and other factors. The following outstanding securities are subject to the repurchase program: $126 million of 9% senior notes due 2011; 53.8 million shares of common stock; and approximately 82,000 warrants to purchase approximately 10.0 million shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.86 per share that expire in August 2006. As described above, we repurchased and retired 1.94 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $20.0 million during the second quarter of 2005 under this securities purchase program.
19
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We believe that we do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined by applicable securities regulations, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
At June 30, 2005, we had $4.0 million of receivables denominated in Japanese yen and $6.2 million denominated in Singapore dollars. We are subject to market risk to the extent that future fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates impact these receivables.
The fair market value of our outstanding 9% senior notes due 2011 was estimated at $138.1 million at June 30, 2005, based on market trading activity.
We have an unfunded deferred compensation plan for executive officers and senior managers with a total liability balance of $5.2 million at June 30, 2005. This liability is subject to fluctuation based upon the market value of certain investment securities selected by participants to measure the market fluctuations and to measure our liability to each participant.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. | | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
| | |
| | On May 26, 2005, the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona commenced an investigation which we believe is focused on contracting matters related to certain U.S. government launch vehicle programs. We are cooperating fully with U.S. government authorities in connection with this investigation, and management strongly supports and is committed to the U.S. government’s procurement integrity processes. We cannot predict whether the government ultimately will conclude that there have been violations of any federal contracting laws, policies or procedures, or any other applicable laws. Should any such violations be alleged or found, we could face the possibility of criminal, civil and/or administrative penalties depending on the nature of such violations. |
| | |
| | We are party to certain litigation or proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the probability is remote that the outcome of any such litigation or proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. |
