NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES (CONTINUED)

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at February 28, 2011, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

	Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value
Due after one year through five years	$	4,334,644	$	4,301,585
Due after five through ten years	$	795,105	$	796,098

The following table presents investments’ gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, as of February 28, 2011:

	Investments in a Continuous Unrealized Loss Position
	Less Than 12 Months				12 Months or More				Total
	Unrealized Loss		Fair Value		Unrealized Loss		Fair Value		Unrealized Loss		Fair Value
Municipal bonds	$	1,036	$	871,695	$	—	$	—	$	1,036	$	871,695

International bonds	$	24,362	$	269,947	$	—	$	—	$	24,362	$	269,947

There were two international bonds, two municipal securities and six corporate bonds in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months. Management considered industry analyst reports, sector credit reports, and volatility in the markets in concluding that the unrealized losses as of February 28, 2011 were primarily the result of customary and expected fluctuations in the bond markets. As a result, all security impairments as of February 28, 2011 were considered temporary.

NOTE 7 - LONG-TERM DEBT

The Company obtained financing from an $8,000,000 Industrial Revenue Bond issued through the Stanly County, North Carolina Industrial Revenue and Pollution Control Authority. The proceeds of this bond were used to finance the acquisition of land and construction of a new facility in North Carolina. The bond matures in April 2018 with the option to provide principal payments annually, April 1. Interest is payable monthly, with a variable rate that resets weekly (.38 percent at February 28, 2011). As a security for payment of the bonds, the Company obtained a direct pay letter of credit issued by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in an original amount of $8,000,000. The letter of credit reduces annually by the principal reduction amount.

Principal payments on the bonds are optional. It is the Company’s intent to repay the bonds as follows:

2011	$	730,000
2012		755,000
2013		785,000
2014		810,000
2015		835,000
2016 and thereafter		2,695,000
		6,610,000
Less current portion		730,000
Total	$	5,880,000

The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on the above Industrial Revenue Bond. At February 28, 2011 the effect of the swap agreement on the bond was to fix the rate at 3.46 percent. The swap agreement matures April 2018, but is reduced annually by the amount of the optional principal payments on the bond. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the interest rate swap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties.

NOTE 8 - COMMON STOCK

There were 300,000 shares of $.01 par value common stock authorized at February 28, 2011, of which 188,211 were outstanding. During the three months ended February 28, 2011, the Company paid cash dividends of $263,495, or $1.40 per outstanding share.

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended February 28, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $977,350, or 40 percent. For the three months ended February 28, 2010, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $966,417, or 40 percent. Income taxes computed at the statutory federal income tax rate of 34 percent differ from the provision for income taxes reflected in the

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES(CONTINUED)

financial statements, primarily due to the impact of state income taxes on the federal provision and nondeductible permanent differences.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and eight states. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007.

NOTE 10 - BENEFIT PLANS

The Company contributes to various multi-employer pension plans under collective bargaining agreements. Expense for these plans approximated $19,000 in the three months ended February 28, 2011 and $22,700 in the three months ended February 28, 2010.

NOTE 11 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt, and an interest rate swap agreement. There are no significant differences between the carrying value and fair value of any of these financial instruments.

In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches within the required fair value measurement framework. Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company uses a hierarchy for inputs when measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Defined levels within the hierarchy are based on the reliability of inputs as follows:

• Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

• Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or identical assets or liabilities in less active markets, such as dealer or broker markets; and

• Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable, such as pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques not based on market, exchange, dealer or broker-traded transactions.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, follows:

Investment securities listed on a national market or exchange are valued at the last sales price, or if there is no sale and the market is still considered active, the last transaction price before year-end. Such securities are classified within Level 1 and Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The fair value of the swap agreement is estimated by a third party using a model that builds a yield curve from market data for actively traded securities at various times and maturities and takes into

account current interest rates and current credit worthiness of the respective counterparties. The interest rate swap is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The following tables set forth financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the accompanying balance sheet and the respective levels to which the fair value measurements are classified within the fair value hierarchy as of February 28, 2011:
