Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, income taxes, and stock-based compensation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited financial statements included in its report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2009.

Note 2. Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income of the Company. As Unearned ESOP shares are released or committed-to-be-released the shares become outstanding for earnings-per-share computations.

Note 3. Stock Based Compensation

The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) (FASB ASC 718) in establishing standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, as well as transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. FASB ASC 718 requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements based on the fair value of the share-based payment. FASB ASC 718 establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees, except for equity instruments held by employee share ownership plans.

Total stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Statement of Income for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, was $25,552 and $26,945, respectively, before income taxes. The related total deferred tax benefit was approximately $2,043 and $2,399 for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Statement of Income for the nine month period ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, was $76,408 and $85,111, respectively, before income taxes. The related total deferred tax benefit was approximately $6,703 and $7,353 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. FASB ASC 718 requires the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options to be classified and reported as both an operating cash outflow and a financing cash inflow on a prospective basis upon adoption.

As of March 31, 2010, there was approximately $45,580 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock option awards that is expected to be recognized as expense over the next 1.5 years. The total deferred tax benefit related to these awards is approximately $4,013.

The Company has one employee stock option plan under which options may be granted, the 2007 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the "2007 Plan"). The Board of Directors may grant options to acquire shares of common stock to employees of the Company at the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Generally, options granted have a two-year vesting period based on two years of continuous service and have a ten-year contractual life. Option grants provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control. Shares issued upon the exercise of options are from those held in Treasury. The 2007 Plan was approved by the Company's shareholders at the Company's Annual Meeting on November 30, 2007 and supersedes the Company's 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Plan"). Options covering 400,000 shares are authorized for issuance under the 2007 Plan, and 60,800 have been granted and are outstanding as of March 31, 2010. While no further grants of options may be made under the 2000 Plan, as of March 31, 2010, 67,400 options remain outstanding, vested and exercisable from the 2000 Plan.

FASB ASC 718 requires the use of a valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option valuation model, which incorporates various assumptions including those for volatility, expected life and interest rates.

The weighted average assumptions that the Company used to calculate the fair value of each option award for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

	2010			2009
Dividend yield		5.3	%		5.3	%
Expected stock price volatility		31.41	%		31.41	%
Risk-free interest rate		1.79	%		1.79	%
Expected option life (in years)	4.3 yrs			4.3 yrs
Weighted average fair value per share of options granted during the period	$	2.767		$	2.767

The Company pays dividends quarterly and anticipates that it will be able to continue to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the expected life of the options. The expected option life (in years) represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on actual historical experience.

The following table summarizes stock option activity during the nine months ended March 31, 2010:

	Employee Stock Options Plan
						Weighted
	Number of			Weighted		Average
	Shares			Average		Remaining
	Subject			Exercise		Contractual
	To Option			Price		Term
Balance at July 1, 2009		140,400		$	18.29		7.90
Granted		2,500		$	17.09		9.34
Exercised		(8,100	)	$	16.74		--
Forfeited or expired		(6,600	)	$	18.97		--
Balance March 31, 2010		128,200		$	18.33		7.27
Exercisable at March 31, 2010		67,400		$	17.48		6.12

The intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $23,046 and $21,073, during the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The intrinsic value of stock options outstanding and exercisable as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $176,420 and $25,120, respectively.

Note 4. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company at certain times enters into standby letters of credit agreements with financial institutions primarily relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts. Contingent liabilities on outstanding standby letters of credit agreements aggregated to zero at March 31, 2010. As a government contractor, the Company is continually subject to audit by various agencies of the U.S. Government to determine compliance with various procurement laws and regulations. As a result of such audits and as part of normal business operations of the Company, various claims and charges can be asserted against the Company. It is not possible to predict the outcome of such actions. Currently the Company has no claims or assertions pending or threatened against it.

Note 5. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 165, Subsequent Events (FASB ASC 855-10). FASB ASC 855-10 establishes principles and requirements for subsequent events. FASB ASC 855-10 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. Adoption of FASB ASC 855-10 did not have a material effect on the company’s financial statements.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 168 (“SFAS 168”), The FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification") and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Under the provisions of SFAS 168, the Codification will become the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. The rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of the federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date of SFAS 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. The provisions of SFAS 168 are effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ended after September 15, 2009. Adoption of SFAS 168 had no effect on the company's financial statements.

In September 2009, the FASB issued ASC 605-25 for revenue recognition with multiple deliverables. These new standards impact the determination of when the individual deliverables included in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting. Additionally, these new standards modify the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables by no longer permitting the residual method of allocating arrangement consideration. These new standards are effective in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, however early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact, if any, of the guidance on its financial statements.

Note 6. Employee Stock Ownership Plan

The Company sponsors a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP") that covers all nonunion employees who work 1,000 or more hours per year and are employed on June 30. The Company makes annual contributions to the ESOP equal to the ESOP's debt service less dividends on unallocated shares received by the ESOP. All dividends on unallocated shares received by the ESOP are used to pay debt service. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings. As the debt is repaid, shares are released and allocated to active employees, based on the proportion of debt service paid in the year. The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with FASB ASC 718. Accordingly, the shares purchased by the ESOP are reported as Unearned ESOP Shares in the statement of financial position. As shares are released or committed-to-be-released, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the current average market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings-per-share (EPS) computations. ESOP compensation expense was $110,530 and $97,360 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. ESOP compensation expense was $310,273 and $326,263 for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The ESOP shares as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

	2010		2009
Allocated Shares		431,061		426,894
Committed-to-be-released shares		16,875		17,500
Unreleased shares		184,791		207,500

Total shares held by the ESOP		632,727		651,894

Fair value of unreleased shares	$	3,714,299	$	3,133,250

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. (the "Company") located in Saratoga Springs, New York, is engaged principally in the development, design, production and sale of specialized electronic power supplies, a wide variety of transformers and other types of iron-core components, and electronic system components. In some cases, the Company manufactures such products in accordance with pre-developed mechanical and electrical requirements (“build to print”). In other cases, the Company is responsible for both the overall design and manufacture of the product. The Company does not generally manufacture standardized components and does not have a product line. The products manufactured by the Company find application principally in (i) shipboard and land based radar, (ii) locomotives, (iii) aircraft, (iv) short and medium range communication systems, (v) navigation systems, and (vi) land-based military vehicle artillery.

Business is solicited from large industrial manufacturers and defense companies, the government of the United States, foreign governments and major foreign electronic equipment companies. In certain countries the Company has external sales representatives to help solicit and coordinate foreign contracts. The Company is also on the eligible list of contractors of agencies of the United States Department of Defense and generally is automatically solicited by such agencies for procurement needs falling within the major classes of products produced by the Company. In addition, the Company directly solicits bids from the United States Department of Defense for prime contracts.

There is competition in all classes of products manufactured by the Company from divisions of the largest electronic companies, as well as many small companies. The Company's sales do not represent a significant share of the industry's market for any class of its products. The principal methods of competition for electronic products of both a military and industrial nature include, among other factors, price, product performance, the experience of the particular company and history of its dealings in such products. The Company, as well as other companies engaged in supplying equipment for military use, is subject to various risks, including, without limitation, dependence on United States and foreign government appropriations and program allocations, the competition for available military business, and government termination of orders for convenience.

New orders received in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 were approximately $13.7 million, representing a 3.8% decrease from the amount of new orders received in the first nine months of fiscal 2009. These orders are in line with the Company’s strategy of getting involved in long-term high quantity military and industrial products and are predominately for follow-on production of mature products. The Company's backlog was $33.1 million at March 31, 2010 which includes $21.3 million from three customers compared to $40.0 million at March 31, 2009 which included $20.9 million from two significant customers. The backlog for the Company represents the estimated remaining sales value of work to be performed under firm contracts.

Based upon the backlog and the anticipated schedule for the fulfillment of orders, management expects sales for fiscal 2010 to be higher than fiscal 2009 sales. In addition to the backlog, the Company currently has outstanding quotations and potential business representing approximately $52.8 million in the aggregate for both repeat and new programs.

The outstanding quotations encompass various new and previously manufactured power supplies, transformers, and subassemblies. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will acquire any or all of the anticipated orders described above, many of which are subject to allocations of the United States defense spending and factors affecting the defense industry and military procurement generally.

Net sales to three significant customers represented 64% of the Company's total sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2010 while sales to two significant customers represented 59% of the Company's total sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, respectively. Sales to three significant customers represented 50.9% of the Company's total sales for the nine month period ended March 31, 2010 while sales to two significant customers represented 65.7% of the Company's total sales for the nine month period ended March 31, 2009, respectively. Historically, a small number of customers have accounted for a large percentage of the Company’s total sales in any given fiscal year. Even though our business tends to be concentrated in several customers, the makeup of those customers is constantly changing. For several years, management has pursued opportunities with current and new customers with an overall objective of lowering the concentration of sales, mitigating excessive reliance upon a single major product of a particular program and minimizing the impact of the loss of a single significant customer. Management continues to evaluate its business development functions and potential revised courses of action.

Management, along with the Board of Directors, continues to evaluate the need and use of the Company’s working capital. Expectations are that the working capital will be required to fund any increase in orders over the next several quarters, dividend payments, and general operations of the business. Also, the Mergers and Acquisitions Committee of the Board of Directors continues to evaluate potential strategic options on a periodic basis.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management believes our most critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and estimates to completion.

A significant portion of our business is comprised of development and production contracts. Generally, revenues on long-term fixed-price contracts are recorded on a percentage of completion basis using units of delivery as the measurement basis for progress toward completion.

Percentage of completion accounting requires judgment relative to expected sales, estimating costs and making assumptions related to technical issues and delivery schedule. Contract costs include material, subcontract costs, labor and an allocation of overhead costs. The estimation of cost at completion of a contract is subject to numerous variables involving contract costs and estimates as to the length of time to complete the contract. Given the significance of the estimation processes and judgments described above, it is possible that materially different amounts of expected sales and contract costs could be recorded if different assumptions were used, based on changes in circumstances, in the estimation process. When a change in expected sales value or estimated cost is determined, changes are reflected in current period earnings.

Results of Operations

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $6,955,827 as compared to $6,709,880 for the same period in 2009, representing an 3.7% increase. Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 were $19,697,098 as compared to $18,957,576 for the same period in 2009, representing a 3.9% increase. Generally, the increases and decreases in net sales can be attributed to the contract specific nature of the Company's business. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2010, was due to an overall increase in power supply shipments including engineering design services offset by a decrease in transmitter component shipments. The increase for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 was primarily due to an increase in transmitter component and transformer shipments and an increase in engineering design services offset by a decrease in power supply shipments.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 gross profits were $1,838,782 and $1,732,812, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 26.4% and 25.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 gross profits were $5,359,077 and $3,510,017, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 27.2% and 18.5%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The primary factor in determining gross profit and net income is product mix. The gross profits on mature products and build to print contracts are higher as compared to products which are still in the engineering development stage or in the early stages of production. In any given accounting period the mix of product shipments between higher margin mature programs and less mature programs, including loss contracts, has a significant impact on gross profit and net income. The increased gross profit and gross profit percentage in the three and nine months ended March 2010, was primarily the result of favorable product mix with only minor cost overruns related to loss contracts. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009 the Company had unexpected losses incurred on programs with significant engineering and production time required for design efforts. These programs experienced significant cost overruns due to extended product qualification testing and difficulties moving the products from engineering design into full production.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $753,414 for the three months ended March 31, 2010; an increase of $95,299, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,302,549 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010; an increase of $176,622 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2009. The increase for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010, relates primarily to an increase in salary expense, consulting fees, and director fees.

Management continues to evaluate the Company’s workforce to ensure that production and overall execution of the backlog orders and additional anticipated orders are successfully obtained and executed. Employment of full time equivalents at March 31, 2010 was 170 compared to 166 people at March 31, 2009.

Other income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010 decreased as compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009 due to decreased interest rates and related interest income on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company does not believe that there is a significant risk associated with its investment policy, since at March 31, 2010 all of the investments were primarily represented by short-term liquid investments including certificates of deposit and money market funds.

The effective income tax rate at March 31, 2010 and 2009 was 26.9% and 31.8%, respectively. The effective tax rate is less than the statutory tax rate mainly due to the benefit the Company receives on its Qualified Production Activities and the benefit derived from the ESOP dividends paid on allocated shares.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2010, was $808,723 or $.38 per share, both basic and diluted, compared to $781,272 or $.37 per share, both basic and diluted, for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2010, was $2,315,657 or $1.09 and $1.08 per share, basic and diluted, respectively, compared to $1,137,155 or $.54 per share, both basic and diluted, for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. The increase in net income per share was primarily due to higher gross profit on sales offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses and decreased interest income .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's working capital is an appropriate indicator of the liquidity of its business, and during the past three fiscal years, the Company, when possible, has funded all of its operations with cash flows resulting from operating activities and when necessary from its existing cash and investments. The Company did not borrow any funds during the last three fiscal years.

The Company's working capital as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $24.5 million and $24.1 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 the Company repurchased 0 and 14,350 shares, respectively, of its common stock for a total purchase price of $0 and $209,035, respectively. Of the total purchases, 0 shares and 10,699 shares, respectively, were purchased from the Company's Employee Retirement Plan and Trust ("ESOP") for a purchase price of $0 and $157,222, respectively. All remaining shares were purchased on the open market. During the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 the Company repurchased 23,513 and 19,899 shares, respectively, of its common stock for a total purchase price of $452,155 and $311,545, respectively. Of the total purchases, 23,513 shares and 11,499 shares, respectively, were purchased from the Company's Employee Retirement Plan and Trust ("ESOP") for a purchase price of $452,155 and $171,662, respectively. All remaining shares were purchased on the open market. Under existing authorizations from the Company's Board of Directors, as of March 31, 2010, management is authorized to purchase an additional $1,236,300 million of Company stock.

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2010			2009
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	3,934,537		$	(554,444	)
Net cash used in investing activities		(1,789,165	)		(722,280	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(3,557,743	)		(4,722,830	)

Net cash provided by operating activities fluctuates between periods primarily as a result of differences in net income, the timing of the collection of accounts receivable, purchase of inventory, level of sales and payment of accounts payable . Net cash used in investing activities increased in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 due to increased purchases, net of maturities, of short term investments and property plant and equipment during the period. The decrease in cash used in financing activities is due primarily to a decrease in the dividends on common stock.

The Company currently believes that the cash flow generated from operations and when necessary, from cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet its long-term funding requirements for the foreseeable future.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company expended $386,029 and $211,952, respectively, for plant improvements and new equipment. The Company has budgeted approximately $450,000 for new equipment and plant improvements in fiscal 2010. Management anticipates that the funds required will be available from current operations.
