Notes to Financial S tatements (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, 2010.

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 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 maybe settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. 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. 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 September 30, 2010 and 2009, was $16,040 and $25,304, respectively, before income taxes. The related total deferred tax benefit was approximately $1,328 and $2,477 for the same periods. 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.

As of September 30, 2010, there was approximately $100,477 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock option awards that is expected to be recognized as expense over the next 2 years. The total deferred tax benefit related to these awards is approximately $8,831.

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 supercedes the Company's 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Plan"). Options covering 400,000 shares are authorized for issuance under the 2007 Plan, of which 99,800 have been granted and 87,900 are outstanding as of September 30, 2010. While no further grants of options may be made under the 2000 Plan, as of September 30, 2010, 64,800 options remain outstanding, vested and exercisable from the 2000 Plan.

Index

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 table below outlines the weighted average assumptions that the Company used to calculate the fair value of each option award for the quarter ended:

	September 30,			September 30,
	2010			2009
Dividend yield		4.	69%		5.	30%
Expected stock price volatility		33.	13%		31.	41%
Risk-free interest rate		1.	08%		1.	79%
Expected option life (in years)	4.		1 yrs	4.3		yrs
Weighted average fair value per share of options granted during the period	$	3.	335	$	2.	767

The Company pays dividends quarterly and anticipates that it will be able to continue to pay comparable regular quarterly dividends in the foreseeable future. While the Company has paid a special cash dividend of $1.00 per share in each of December 2008 and 2009, there is no assurance that the Board of Directors will declare a comparable special dividend in 2010. 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 three months ended September 30, 2010:

	Employee Stock Options Plan
						Weighted
	Number of			Weighted		Average
	Shares			Average		Remaining
	Subject			Exercise		Contractual
	To Option			Price		Term
Balance at July 1, 2010		127,600		$	18.31		7.02
Granted		31,100		$	19.20		9.91
Exercised		(4,000	)	$	19.92		--
Forfeited or expired		(2,000	)	$	17.09		--
Balance September 30, 2010		152,700		$	18.46		7.37
Exercisable at September 30, 2010		92,500		$	18.67		6.21

The intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $3,563 and $0, during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The intrinsic value of stock options outstanding and exercisable as of September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $270,576 and $42,948, 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 September 30, 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.

Index

Note 5. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC Topic 105-10-05, 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 ASC Topic 105-10-05, 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 ASC Topic 105-10-05, 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 ASC Topic 105-10-05 are effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ended after September 15, 2009. Adoption of ASC Topic 105-10-05 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. Adoption did not effect the Company’s 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 718-40. 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.

Item 2. Manageme n t's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. (“Espey”) is a power electronics design and original equipment manufacturing (OEM) company with a long history of developing and delivering highly reliable products for use in military and severe environment applications. All design, manufacturing, and testing is performed in our 150,000+ square foot facility located at 233 Ballston Ave, Saratoga Springs, New York. Espey is classified as a “smaller reporting company” for purposes of the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Espey’s common stock is publicly-traded on the NYSE-Amex under the symbol “ESP.”

Espey began operations after incorporation in New York in 1928. We strive to remain competitive as a leader in high power energy conversion and transformer solutions through the design and manufacture of new and improved products by using advanced and “cutting edge” electronics technologies.

Espey is ISO 9001:2008 certified and our primary products are power supplies, power converters, filters, power transformers, magnetic components, power distribution equipment, ups systems, antennas and high power radar systems. The applications of these products include AC and DC locomotives, shipboard power, shipboard radar, airborne power, ground-based radar, and ground mobile power.

Espey services include design and development to specification, build to print, design services, design studies, environmental testing services, metal fabrication, plating and painting services, and development of automatic testing equipment. Espey manufacturing is vertically integrated, meaning that the Company produces individual components (including inductors), populates printed circuit boards, fabricates metalwork, paints, plates, wires, qualifies, and fully tests items, mechanically, electrically and environmentally, in house.

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. Espey contracts with the Federal Government under cage code 20950 as Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. and cage code 98675 as Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp., Saratoga Industries Division.

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 three months of fiscal 2011 were approximately $6.8 million, representing a 42.6% increase from the amount of new orders received in the first three months of fiscal 2010. These new 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 $31.8 million at September 30, 2010 which includes $20.3 million from three significant customers compared to $37.0 million at September 30, 2009 which included $19.1 million from two significant customers. The backlog for the Company represents the estimated remaining sales value of work to be performed under firm contracts.

The sales backlog gives the Company a solid base of future sales. Based upon the backlog and the anticipated schedule for the fulfillment of orders, management expects revenues in fiscal year 2011 to remain in line with fiscal year 2010 sales. In addition to the backlog, the Company currently has outstanding quotations and potential business representing approximately $44.3 million in the aggregate for both repeat and new programs .

Index

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 69.1% of the Company's total sales for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 and net sales to three significant customers represented 66.8% of the Company's total sales for the first three month period ended September 30, 2009. These sales are in connection with long term programs in which the Company is a significant subcontractor. 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 often changes from year to year. 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 in order to diversify its customer base. The defense industry itself tends to be concentrated with a few large tier one defense contractors which limits the amount of diversity the Company can achieve with its customer base.

Management, along with the Board of Directors, continues to evaluate the need and use of the Company’s working capital. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $500,000 for fiscal 2011. Expectations are that the working capital will be required to fund orders, dividend payments, and general operations of the business. From time to time, management along with the Mergers and Acquisitions Committee of the Board of Directors examine opportunities involving acquisitions or other strategic options, including buying certain products or product lines. The criteria for consideration are synergies with the Company’s existing product base and accretion to earnings.

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 September 30, 2010 were $6,026,330 as compared to $6,874,940 for the same period in 2009, representing a 12.3% decrease. The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to a decrease in engineering design related billings and the overall timing of contract shipments.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 gross profits were $1,650,532 and $2,058,202, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 27.4% and 29.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The primary factors in determining gross profit and net income are overall sales levels and 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 decreased gross profit and gross profit percentage in the three months ended September 30, 2010, as compared to September 30, 2009, was primarily the result of decreased sales and minor cost overruns related to certain products.

Index

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $692,709 for the three months ended September 30, 2010; a decrease of $59,677, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2010 relates primarily to a decrease in salary expense.

Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 decreased as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009 due to decreased interest rates and related interest income on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Other income increased due to an increase in scrap sales and funds received related to an insurance claim. The Company does not believe there is significant risk associated with its investment policy, since at September 30, 2010 all of the investments were primarily represented by short-term liquid investments.

The effective income tax rate at September 30, 2010 and 2009 was 28.2% and 26.8%, 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” under The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and the benefit derived from the ESOP dividends paid on allocated shares.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2010, was $753,539 or $.35 per share, both basic and diluted, compared to $992,763 or $.47 per share, both basic and diluted, for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in net income per share was mainly due to lower sales offset by lower 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 two 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 September 30, 2010 was approximately $26.2 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. Under existing authorizations from the Company's Board of Directors, as of September 30, 2010, management is authorized to purchase an additional $1,236,300 million of Company stock.

	Three Months Ended
	September 30,			September 30,
	2010			2009
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,439,380		$	2,111,718
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities		2,247,353			(1,142,844	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(385,571	)		(148,078	)

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 provided by investing activities increased in the first three months of fiscal 2011 due to more short-term investments maturing and a reduction in the amount of short-term investments purchased during the current period. The increase in cash used in financing activities is due primarily to dividends on common stock without the offsetting effect of the sale of treasury stock which occurred in the prior year.

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 three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company expended $107,247 and $147,308, respectively, for plant improvements and new equipment. The Company has budgeted approximately $500,000 for new equipment and plant improvements in fiscal 2011. Management anticipates that the funds required will be available from current operations.
