NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Overview

The Goldfield Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Wyoming in 1906 and subsequently reincorporated in Delaware in 1968. The Company’s principal line of business is electrical construction. The principal market for the Company’s electrical construction operation is electric utilities throughout much of the United States.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and changes in cash flows for the interim periods reported. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All financial statements presented herein are unaudited with the exception of the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 , which was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 .

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on customer specific information and historical write-off experience. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts quarterly. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Any increase in the allowance account has a corresponding negative effect on the results of operations. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , upon its review, management determined it was not necessary to record an allowance for doubtful accounts due to the majority of accounts receivable being generated by electrical utility customers whom the Company considers creditworthy based on timely collection history and other considerations.

Use of Estimates

Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management considers the most significant estimates in preparing these financial statements to be the estimated cost to complete electrical construction contracts in progress, the adequacy of the accrued remediation costs, assigning fair value and allocating purchase price in connection with our business combination and the realizability of deferred tax assets.

Financial Instruments - Fair Value

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, restricted cash collateral deposited with insurance carriers, cash surrender value of life insurance policies, accounts payable, notes payable, and other current liabilities.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value guidance establishes a valuation hierarchy, which requires maximizing the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value.

The three levels of inputs that may be used are:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable market based inputs or other observable inputs.

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data. These values are generally determined using valuation models incorporating management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

Fair values of financial instruments are estimated through the use of public market prices, quotes from financial institutions, and other available information. Management considers the carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accrued billings, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, to approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of notes receivable is considered by management to approximate carrying value based on their interest rates and terms, maturities, collateral, and

Table of Contents

current status of the receivables. The Company’s long-term notes payable are also estimated by management to approximate carrying value since the interest rates prescribed by Branch Banking and Trust Company (the “Bank”) are variable market interest rates and are adjusted periodically. The Company has determined the fair value of its fixed rate long-term installment notes payable to be $3.7 million using an interest rate of 2.69% (Level 2 input), which is the Company's current interest rate on borrowings. Restricted cash is considered by management to approximate fair value due to the nature of the asset held in a secured interest bearing bank account. The carrying value of cash surrender value of life insurance is also considered by management to approximate fair value as the carrying value is based on the current settlement value under the contract, as provided by the carrier.

Restricted Cash

The Company’s restricted cash includes cash deposited in a secured interest bearing bank account, as required by the Collateral Trust Agreement in connection with the Company’s workers’ compensation insurance policies, as described in note 8.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates as a single reportable segment under ASC 280-10-50 Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information .

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, which will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and is intended to improve and converge with international standards the financial reporting requirements for revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. ASU 2014-09 allows for both retrospective and prospective methods of adoption and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the impact that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Income Taxes

The following table presents the provision for income tax and the effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30 , as indicated:



	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	September 30,						September 30,
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Income tax provision	$	728,243		$	955,108		$	1,192,826		$	2,054,808
Effective income tax rate	38.0		%	42.7		%	38.0		%	39.7		%

The Company's expected income tax rate for the year ending December 31, 2014 , which was calculated based on the estimated annual operating results for the year, is 38.0% . The expected income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to state income taxes.

The effective income tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 were both 38.0% and reflect the annual expected income tax rate.

The effective income tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were 42.7% and 39.7% , respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 differs from the 2013 expected income tax rate primarily due to the change in the 2013 estimated annual operating results for the year resulting in an increase of permanent differences which increased the expected tax rate. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflects the 2013 expected income tax rate.

The current deferred tax assets increased to $940,000 as of September 30, 2014 from $622,000 as of December 31, 2013 due to an increase in current remediation costs. The non-current deferred tax liabilities increased to $6.5 million as of September 30, 2014 from $6.0 million as of December 31, 2013 due to additional tax depreciation in excess of book depreciation and the reduction in non-current remediation costs.

The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not such assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the deferred tax assets are expected to be recovered or settled. In the assessment for a valuation allowance, appropriate consideration is given to all positive and negative evidence related to the

Table of Contents

realization of the deferred tax assets. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, experience with loss carryforwards expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives. If the Company determines it will not be able to realize all or part of the deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance would be recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

Based on assumptions with respect to forecasts of future taxable income and tax planning, among others, the Company anticipates being able to generate sufficient taxable income to utilize the deferred tax assets. Therefore, the Company has not recorded a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. The minimum amount of future taxable income required to be generated to fully realize the deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2014 is approximately $3.0 million .

The Company has gross unrecognized tax benefits of $11,000 as of both September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 . The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to certain state income tax matters may be settled within the next twelve months. The federal statute of limitation has expired for tax years prior to 2008 and relevant state statutes vary.

The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and other general and administrative expenses, respectively, and not as a component of income taxes.

Note 3 – Discontinued Operations

Commitments and Contingencies Related to Discontinued Operations

Through certain of our subsidiaries and predecessor companies, the Company was previously engaged in mining activities and ended all such activities in December 2002.

In June 2013, the Company received an inquiry from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) with respect to a previously owned mining property, the Sierra Zinc Site located in Stevens County, Washington (the “Site”). The Company sold the Site over fifty years ago. The Site includes a tailings impoundment that was not previously reclaimed.

Effective September 15, 2014, the Company entered into an Administrative Order on Consent (“AOC”) with the EPA. Pursuant to the AOC, the Company agreed to undertake certain remediation actions at the Site, which work has commenced and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2015. The contract price for this work is $1.3 million . This amount does not include certain other charges, such as potential change orders, environmental oversight costs and other direct and indirect costs.

Based on the foregoing, the Company has reasonably estimated the amounts related to this response action in accordance with ASC Topic 450-20, Loss Contingencies, and established a contingency provision within discontinued operations. As of September 30, 2014 the balance of the estimated contingency provision accrued by the Company was $1.6 million , compared to $1.1 million , as of December 31, 2013 . This contingency provision represents the estimated costs of the response action, as provided by the Company's environmental consultants, as well as the anticipated legal costs. It is reasonably possible the total actual costs to be incurred at the Site in future periods may vary from this estimate and, given inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental costs, the Company is unable to estimate with certainty the ultimate loss. The provision will be reviewed periodically based upon facts and circumstances available at the time, which could result, and most likely will result, in changes to this amount. The costs provisioned for future expenditures related to this environmental obligation are not discounted to present value.

The Company believes that the costs of this response action may be covered, in part, by insurance. The Company has advised the insurers (Fireman's Fund Insurance Company and Hartford Accident & Indemnity Company), which have accepted the defense of the claims relating to the Site, subject to certain reservation of rights as to coverage. As of September 30, 2014 , the Company has received a total reimbursement of $169,000 from the insurers for all reimbursable expenses incurred through April 14, 2014 .

The extent, if any, of insurance coverage for remediation and other expenses may ultimately be resolved in pending declaratory judgment litigation or settlements with respect thereto. On April 28, 2014, Fireman's Fund Insurance Company filed a Complaint for a declaratory judgment in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, seeking a declaratory judgment that, among other things, the Company was not entitled to coverage for its claim and seeking reimbursement for defense costs. On May 8, 2014, the Company commenced a separate declaratory judgment action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Washington against the insurers, which has been ordered transferred to the Middle District of Florida in view of the previously filed action in that jurisdiction. On October 24, 2014, the insurers filed a consolidated complaint for declaratory judgment in the Florida case.

On November 11, 2014, the Company and one of the insurers entered into a settlement providing, among other things, for dismissal of their actions against each other, the exchange of releases and payment by such insurer to the Company of $225,000 and certain unreimbursed expenses. The contingency provision as of September 30, 2014 , has not been adjusted for payment of any settlement amounts.

As of September 30, 2014 , the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries; Southeast Power Corporation (“Southeast Power”), Pineapple House of Brevard, Inc. (“Pineapple House”), Bayswater Development Corporation (“Bayswater”), Power Corporation of America (“PCA”), and C and C Power Line, Inc. (“C&C”), collectively (the “Debtors,”) were parties to a Master Loan Agreement, dated January 31, 2014 (the “2014 Master Loan Agreement”), with Branch Banking and Trust Company (the “Bank”). The terms of the 2014 Master Loan Agreement replaced all previous Bank loan agreements with respect to the notes payable to the Bank listed in the table above.

All loans with the Bank are guaranteed by the Debtors and include the grant of a continuing security interest in all now owned and hereafter acquired and wherever located personal property of the Debtors as follows: (i) machinery and equipment, including all accessions thereto, all manufacturers’ warranties, parts and tools therefor; (ii) tax refunds, Company records (paper and electronic), rights under equipment leases, warranties and software licenses; (iii) supporting obligations; and (iv) to the extent not listed in (i) and (ii) all proceeds (cash and non-cash) and products of the foregoing.

As of September 30, 2014 , the Company had a loan agreement and a series of related ancillary agreements with the Bank providing for a revolving line of credit loan for a maximum principal amount of $15.0 million , to be used as a “ Working Capital Loan ,” of which $5.0 million was outstanding as of September 30, 2014 . The Working Capital Loan will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to one month LIBOR (as defined in the ancillary loan documents) plus two percent 2.00% , which will be adjusted monthly and subject to a maximum of 24.00% ; pricing is based on the following table:

Table of Contents



Leverage Ratio	Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans and Letter of Credit Fees	Unused Commitment Fee
< 1.0x ≥ 1.0x but < 1.5x ≥ 1.5x but < 2.0x ≥ 2.0x but < 2.5x ≥ 2.5x but < 3.0x	175.0 bps 200.0 bps 225.0 bps 250.0 bps 275.0 bps	25 bps 37.5 bps 37.5 bps 50.0 bps 50.0 bps

“Leverage ratio” means total liabilities to tangible net worth. Pricing will be adjusted on a quarterly basis based on the table above and the Company’s quarterly financial reports with any interest rate changes taking effect in the month following receipt of the quarterly financial reports. Interest only payments are payable monthly commencing on January 16, 2014, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter, until June 16, 2016.

Under the ancillary agreements relating to the Working Capital Loan , the Company agrees to pay an unused commitment fee on any difference between the face amount of the Working Capital Loan and the amount of credit it actually uses, determined by the average of the daily amount of credit outstanding during the specified period. The fee is calculated annually at the rates set forth in the table above and is due on April 1, 2014 and the same day of each following quarter until the maturity date of the Working Capital Loan . The unused portion of the Working Capital Loan as of September 30, 2014 , was $10.0 million .

With the exception of the Working Capital Loan, the $10.0 Million Equipment Loan , and the $3.5 Million Acquisition Loan , which bear interest under the same rates and specifications as those set forth above for the Working Capital Loan, all the loans with the Bank bear interest at a rate per annum equal to one month LIBOR (as defined in the ancillary loan documents) plus two and one-half percent ( 2.50% ), which is adjusted monthly and subject to a maximum interest rate of 24.00% .

As of September 30, 2014 , Southeast Power, the Company, and Ring Power Corporation (the “Seller”), are parties to an Installment Sale Contract (Security Agreement), as amended (the “ $7.90 Million Installment Sale Contract ”), and related ancillary agreements. Southeast Power agreed to purchase specific identified equipment units (the “Equipment”) from the Seller for a purchase price of $7.9 million . On July 16, 2012 , the Seller assigned to Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation (“CAT”) its interest in and rights and remedies under the $7.90 Million Installment Sale Contract and related agreements, as well as the Seller’s security interest in the Equipment. The Bank and CAT entered into a Subordination Agreement with respect to the Equipment. Pursuant to the terms of the $7.90 Million Installment Sale Contract , Southeast Power agreed to pay the entire purchase price of all Equipment plus fees and finance charges by way of forty-eight ( 48 ) installment payments of $176,535 , aggregating to $8,473,658 , payable directly to CAT. Borrowings outstanding under the $7.90 Million Installment Sale Contract were $3.8 million and $5.2 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , respectively. The $7.90 Million Installment Sale Contract bears a fixed interest rate of 3.45% and is due and payable in full on July 17, 2016 .

The Company’s debt arrangements contain various financial and other covenants including, but not limited to: minimum tangible net worth; outside debt limitation (with certain exceptions); maximum debt to tangible net worth ratio; fixed charge coverage ratio; and asset coverage ratio. Other loan covenants prohibit, among other things, a change in legal form of the Company, and entering into a merger or consolidation. The loans also have cross-default provisions whereby any default under any loans of the Company (or its subsidiaries) with the Bank, will constitute a default under all of the other loans of the Company (and its subsidiaries) with the Bank.

Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies

Performance Bonds

In certain circumstances, the Company is required to provide performance bonds to secure its contractual commitments. Management is not aware of any performance bonds issued for the Company that have ever been called by a customer. As of September 30, 2014 , outstanding performance bonds issued on behalf of the Company’s electrical construction subsidiaries amounted to approximately $50.3 million .

Collective Bargaining Agreements

C&C, one of the Company's electrical construction subsidiaries, is party to collective bargaining agreements with unions representing workers performing field construction operations. The collective bargaining agreements expire at various times and have typically been renegotiated and renewed on terms similar to the ones contained in the expiring agreements. The agreements require the subsidiary to pay specified wages, provide certain benefits to their respective union employees and contribute certain amounts to multi-employer pension plans and employee benefit trusts. The subsidiary’s multi-employer pension plan contribution rates generally are specified in the collective bargaining agreements (usually on an annual basis), and contributions are made to the plans on a “pay-as-you-go” basis based on such subsidiary’s union employee payrolls, which cannot be determined for future periods because contributions depend on, among other things, the number of union employees

Table of Contents

that such subsidiary employs at any given time; the plans in which it may participate vary depending on the projects it has ongoing at any time; and the need for union resources in connection with those projects. If the subsidiary withdraws from, or otherwise terminates its participation in, one or more multi-employer pension plans, or if the plans were to otherwise become substantially underfunded, such subsidiary could be assessed liabilities for additional contributions related to the underfunding of these plans. The Company is not aware of any amounts of withdrawal liability that have been incurred as a result of a withdrawal by C&C from any multi-employer defined benefit pension plans.

Note 6 – Income Per Share of Common Stock

Basic income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if common stock equivalents, such as stock options outstanding, were exercised into common stock that subsequently shared in the earnings of the Company.

As of September 30, 2014 and 2013 , the Company had no common stock equivalents. The computation of the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding excludes 2,362,418 shares of treasury stock for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 .

Note 7 – Customer Concentration

A significant portion of the Company’s electrical construction revenue has historically been derived from three or four utility customers each year. For the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 , the three largest customers accounted for 55% and 63% , respectively, of the Company’s total revenue. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 the three largest customers accounted for 56% and 59% , respectively, of the Company’s total revenue.

Note 8 - Restricted Cash

On October 25, 2010 , the Company, as grantor, Valley Forge Insurance Company (the “Beneficiary”) and Branch Banking and Trust Company (the “Trustee”) entered into a Collateral Trust Agreement (the “Agreement”) in connection with the Company’s workers’ compensation insurance policies issued by the Beneficiary (the “Policies”) beginning in 2009 . The Agreement was made to grant the Beneficiary a security interest in certain of the Company’s assets and to place those assets in a Trust Account to secure the Company’s obligations to the Beneficiary under the Policies. The deposits maintained under the Agreement are recorded as restricted cash, within the non-current assets section of our balance sheet.

Note 9 - Acquisition of C and C Power Line, Inc.

On January 3, 2014 , PCA completed its acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of stock of C&C. The purchase price was $7,250,000 in cash, subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments; $725,000 of such purchase price was deposited into an escrow fund to secure certain purchase price adjustments and indemnification obligations. The purchase price was funded through our Working Capital Loan and the $3.5 Million Acquisition Loan as described in note 4.

As of September 30, 2014 , the preliminary purchase price adjustments relating to indemnification obligations resulted in a decrease of the purchase price of approximately $130,000 . These purchase price adjustments are presented as if the adjustments had been taken into account as of the date of the acquisition. The Company will provide the purchase price adjustments that may result based on the final net assets and net liabilities acquired. The amounts presented are provisional and remain preliminary until the end of the valuation period, January 3, 2015 .

PCA incurred acquisition costs totaling approximately $322,000 through September 30, 2014 in connection with the transaction. These acquisition costs are included under the caption “selling, general and administrative” on the Company's consolidated statements of income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 , these acquisition costs totaled approximately $5,000 and $106,000 , respectively. The balance was incurred in 2013 .

C&C is a full service electrical contractor, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, with a unionized workforce. C&C has been involved in the electrical business in Florida since 1989.

Note 10 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Associated with the Acquisition of C&C

In connection with the acquisition of C&C, as described in note 9, the Company acquired intangible assets with definite useful lives primarily consisting of trademarks and names, customer relationships and non-competition agreements and are amortized over periods from five to twenty years. The aggregate cash consideration paid, net of cash acquired of $1,376,508 , was $5.7 million , of which $101,000 was allocated to goodwill, $1.0 million to acquired other intangible assets, $3.3 million to fixed assets, $2.6 million to net current assets and $1.3 million to net liabilities assumed. The Company continues to assess the allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of tangible and intangible assets, as well as the estimated useful lives of the assets acquired. These values may differ from those presented in prior quarterly periods during the valuation period.

Forward-Looking Statements

We make “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 throughout this document. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” and “continue” or similar words. We have based these statements on our current expectations about future events. Although we believe that our expectations reflected in or suggested by our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these expectations will be achieved. Our actual results may differ materially from what we currently expect. Factors that may affect the results of our operations include, among others: the level of construction activities by public utilities; the concentration of revenue from a limited number of utility customers; the loss of one or more significant customers; the timing and duration of construction projects for which we are engaged; our ability to estimate accurately with respect to fixed price construction contracts; and heightened competition in the electrical construction field, including intensification of price competition. Other factors that may affect the results of our operations include, among others: adverse weather; natural disasters; effects of climate changes; changes in generally accepted accounting principles; ability to obtain necessary permits from regulatory agencies; our ability to maintain or increase historical revenue and profit margins; general economic conditions, both nationally and in our region; adverse legislation or regulations; availability of skilled construction labor and materials and material increases in labor and material costs; and our ability to obtain additional and/or renew financing. Other important factors which could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this document include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as those discussed elsewhere in this report and as set forth from time to time in our other public filings and public statements. In addition to the other information included in this report and our other public filings and releases, a discussion of factors affecting our business is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and should be considered while evaluating our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

You should read this report in its entirety and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We may not update these forward-looking statements, even in the event that our situation changes in the future, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

Overview

We are a provider of electrical construction services throughout much of the United States. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , our total consolidated revenue was $69.9 million .

Through our subsidiaries, Power Corporation of America (“PCA”), Southeast Power Corporation (“Southeast Power”) and C and C Power Line, Inc. (“C&C”), we are engaged in the construction and maintenance of electric utility facilities for electric utilities and industrial customers, and the installation of fiber optic cable for fiber optic cable manufacturers, telecommunication companies, and electric utilities. Southeast Power performs electrical contracting services primarily in the southeast and mid-atlantic regions of the United States and in Texas. Southeast Power is headquartered in Titusville, Florida and has additional offices in Bastrop, Texas and Spartanburg, South Carolina. C&C is a full service electrical contractor, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, with a unionized workforce and has been involved in the electrical business primarily in Florida since 1989.

The electrical construction business is highly competitive and fragmented. We compete with other independent contractors, including larger regional and national firms that may have financial, operational, technical and marketing resources that exceed our own. We also face competition from existing and prospective customers establishing or augmenting in-house service organizations that employ personnel who perform some of the same types of services as those provided by us. In addition, a significant portion of our electrical construction revenue is derived from a small group of customers, several of which account for a substantial portion of our revenue in any given year. The relative revenue contribution by any single customer or group of customers may significantly fluctuate from period to period. For example, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and for the year ended December 31, 2013 , three of our customers accounted for approximately 56% and 54% of our consolidated revenue, respectively. The loss of, or decrease in current demand from one or more of these customers, would, if not replaced by other business, result in a decrease in revenue, margins and profits, which could be material.

Critical Accounting Estimates

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to fixed price electrical construction contracts, the adequacy of our accrued remediation costs

Table of Contents

and deferred tax assets and liabilities. On January 3, 2014 , we acquired C&C, and we consider the assignment of fair value and allocation of the purchase price in connection with our acquisition as an additional critical accounting estimate. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions 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. Our management has discussed the selection and development of our critical accounting policies, estimates, and related disclosure with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Percentage of Completion

We recognize revenue from fixed price contracts on a percentage-of-completion basis, using primarily the cost-to-cost method based on the percentage of total cost incurred to date, in proportion to total estimated cost to complete the contract. Total estimated cost, and thus contract income, is impacted by several factors including, but not limited to: changes in productivity and scheduling, the cost of labor, subcontracts, materials and equipment. Additionally, external factors such as weather, site conditions and scheduling that differ from those assumed in the original bid (to the extent contract remedies are unavailable), customer needs, customer delays in providing approvals and materials, the availability and skill level of workers in the geographic location of the project, a change in the availability and proximity of materials, and governmental regulation, may also affect the progress and estimated cost of a project’s completion and thus the timing of income and revenue recognition.

The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period is almost solely dependent on the accuracy of our estimates of the cost to complete each project. Due to our experience and our detailed approach in determining our cost estimates for all of our significant projects, we believe our estimates to be highly reliable. However, our projects can be complex and in almost every case the profit margin estimates for a project will either increase or decrease, to some extent, from the amount that was originally estimated at the time of bid. Because we have a number of projects of varying levels of complexity and size in process at any given time, these changes in estimates can offset each other without materially impacting our overall profitability. If a current estimate of total costs indicates a loss on a contract, the projected loss is recognized in full when determined. Accrued contract losses as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , were $53,000 and $84,000 , respectively. The accrued contract losses for 2014 and 2013 are mainly attributable to transmission projects experiencing either adverse weather conditions or unexpected construction issues. Revenue from change orders, extra work, variations in the scope of work and claims is recognized when realization is probable.

Accrued Remediation Costs

As described in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2013 we established a contingency provision within discontinued operations of $1.2 million , relating to a pending environmental matter with respect to a previously owned mining property, the Sierra Zinc Site located in Stevens County, Washington (the “Site”) which we sold over fifty years ago. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , we increased the contingency provision within discontinued operations by $1.1 million . The balance of the estimated contingency provision accrued as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , was $1.6 million and $1.1 million , respectively. The accrual will be reviewed periodically based upon facts and circumstances available at the time, which could result, and most likely will result, in changes to this amount.

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which establishes the recognition requirements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and the respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

As of September 30, 2014 , our deferred tax assets were largely comprised of accrued vacation, accrued workers' compensation claims, capitalized costs and accrued remediation costs. The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not such assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the deferred tax assets are expected to be recovered or settled. In the assessment for a valuation allowance, appropriate consideration is given to all positive and negative evidence related to the realization of the deferred tax assets. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, our experience with loss carryforwards expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives. If we determine we will not be able to realize all or part of our deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance would be recorded to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

Based on our assumption with respect to forecasts of future taxable income and tax planning, among others, we anticipate being able to generate sufficient taxable income to utilize our deferred tax assets. Therefore, we have not recorded a valuation

Table of Contents

allowance against deferred tax assets. The minimum amount of future taxable income required to be generated to fully realize the deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2014 is approximately $3.0 million .

Operating income equals total operating revenue less operating costs and expenses including depreciation and amortization, and selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating costs and expenses also include any gains or losses on the sale of property and equipment. Operating income excludes interest expense, interest income, other income, and income taxes.

Revenue

Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , increased 5.3% to $69.9 million , from $66.4 million in 2013 . Electrical construction operations revenue increased $566,000 to $66.5 million , from $66.0 million in 2013 , due primarily to additional revenue from our acquisition of C & C. Other revenue increased $3.0 million to $3.4 million , from $448,000 in 2013 , due to the sale of residential properties. The significant increase in Master Service Agreements during the period has not impacted revenue for the period ended September 30, 2014 , as more fully discussed under “Backlog” below.

Backlog

Our backlog represents the uncompleted portion of services to be performed under existing project-specific fixed-price and maintenance contracts and the estimated value of future services that we expect to provide under our existing Master Service Agreements (“MSAs”).

The below table presents our total backlog as of September 30, 2014 and 2013 along with an estimate of the backlog amounts expected to be realized within 12 months and within the total life of each of the MSAs. The existing MSAs have initial terms ranging from one year to four years and some provide for additional renewals at the option of the customer. The total calculation assumes exercise of the renewal options by the customer. Revenue from assumed exercise of renewal options represents $119.3 million ( 48.5% ) of our total estimated MSA backlog as of September 30, 2014 .



	Backlog as of				Backlog as of ⁽¹⁾
	September 30, 2014				September 30, 2013
Electrical Construction	12 Months		Total		12 Months		Total
Project Specific Firm Contracts	$	39,823,589	$	41,345,422	$	22,355,054	$	22,355,054
Estimated Master Service Agreements (MSAs)	47,584,962		245,941,406		12,785,427		31,180,007
Total	$	87,408,551	$	287,286,828	$	35,140,481	$	53,535,061

(1) The backlog as of September 30, 2013, has been revised to conform to the 2014 presentation of our backlog, which include additional MSAs in existence as of September 30, 2013.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2014 , our total backlog was $287.3 million , compared to $53.5 million for the same period in 2013 . Of the $287.3 million backlog as of September 30, 2014 , $41.3 million is believed to be firm under existing project-specific fixed-price and maintenance contracts and the balance represents the estimated value of future services under our existing MSAs.

The increase in backlog as of September 30, 2014 , is mainly attributable to MSA contracts that have been awarded to us during the second and third quarters of 2014 . In the second and third quarters of 2014 , 12-month MSA backlog increased by approximately $31.1 million ( 183% ) from December 31, 2013 . Because of the recent signing of the MSAs and delay in the start of specific construction projects, the new MSAs did not, in large part, impact revenue for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 .

The estimated amount of backlog for work under MSAs is calculated by using recurring historical trends inherent in current MSAs and projected customer needs based upon ongoing communications with the customer. Our estimated backlog also assumes exercise of existing customer renewal options. Certain MSA's are not exclusive to the Company and, therefore, the size and amount of projects we may be awarded cannot be determined with certainty. Accordingly, the amount of future revenue from MSA contracts may vary substantially from our current estimate. Backlog is not a term recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, but is a common measurement used in our industry. While we believe that our calculation methodology is appropriate, such methodology may not be comparable to that employed by some other companies.

As of September 30, 2014 and 2013 , MSAs accounted for approximately 85.6% and 58.2% of total backlog, respectively. We plan to continue our efforts to grow MSA business. MSA contracts are generally multi-year which allows for more consistent work load and improved operating efficiencies.

Revenue estimates included in our backlog can be subject to change as a result of project accelerations, cancellations or delays due to various factors, including, but not limited to: commercial issues, materials deficiency, regulatory requirements and adverse weather. Our customers are not contractually committed to a specific level of services under MSAs. While we did not experience any material cancellations during the current period, most contracts may be terminated, even if we are not in default under the contract.

Operating Results

Total operating income decreased 34.7% to $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , from $5.5 million in 2013 . Electrical construction operations operating income decreased 28.1% to $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , from $8.2 million in 2013 . This decrease was mainly the result of approximately $1.3 million of expenses, (largely incurred in the second quarter ended June 30, 2014) on one project caused by unanticipated geological conditions, and to a lesser extent increases in our electrical construction operations fixed and overhead costs, mainly due to our growth and expansion efforts.

Operating margins on electrical construction operations decreased to 8.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , from 12.4% in 2013 , mainly due to the aforementioned unanticipated expenses on one project in the second quarter of 2014, as well as increases in our electrical construction operations fixed and overhead costs.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses, and the components thereof, increased by $5.4 million to $66.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , from $60.9 million in 2013 .

Electrical construction operations costs of sales increased by $2.3 million to $56.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , from $53.9 million in 2013 . This increase in costs was primarily attributable to the aforementioned project losses recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , mainly due to the aforementioned construction issues. Also contributing to the increase in costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 are increases in our electrical construction operations fixed and overhead costs, mainly due to our growth and expansion efforts.

The increase in our “Other” costs and expenses of $2.4 million is mainly due to the costs of sales attributable to the residential properties sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 . These costs totaled $2.7 million , for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , compared to $361,000 in 2013 .

The following table sets forth selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 :

Total	$	3,249,188	$	2,946,863

Table of Contents

SG&A expenses increased 10.3% to $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , from $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 . This increase was primarily due to increases in electrical construction operations expenditures, primarily professional and legal services, mainly attributable to the acquisition of C&C. Also contributing to the increase in SG&A expenses were increases in other selling expenses, due to the sale of residential properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 . As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses increased to 4.6% for 2014 , from 4.4% in 2013 , due primarily to the increase in SG&A expenditures during the current period.

Total operating income	$	2,058,123		$	2,332,113

Revenue

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , decreased slightly to $22.7 million , from $23.3 million in 2013 . Electrical construction operations revenue decreased 5.1% to $22.1 million , from $23.3 million in 2013 . This decrease was mainly attributable to the completion of the South Texas Electric Cooperative (“STEC”) project in August 2013, which was approximately 31.2% of electrical construction revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 . The revenue from STEC was largely replaced by revenue from our acquisition of C&C.

Operating Results

Total operating income decreased to $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , from $2.3 million in 2013 . Electrical construction operations operating income decreased 14.1% to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , from $3.4 million in 2013 . This decrease was primarily the result of the aforementioned decrease in revenue during the current period.

Operating margins on electrical construction operations decreased to 13.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , from 14.4% in 2013 , mainly due to the aforementioned decrease in revenue attributable to the completion of the STEC project in August 2013, which was largely replaced by revenue from our acquisition of C&C.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses, and the components thereof, decreased by $377,000 to $20.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , from $21.0 million in 2013 . This decrease is mainly due to the aforementioned decrease in STEC revenue, which was offset by increases attributable to the costs associated with the revenue from our acquisition of C&C.

Consistent with the modest revenue decline, electrical construction operations costs of sales decreased by $741,000 to $17.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , from $18.6 million in 2013 .

The increase in our “Other” costs and expenses of $419,000 is mainly due to the costs of sales attributable to the residential properties sold during the three months ended September 30, 2014 . These costs totaled $420,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , compared to $2,000 in 2013 .

SG&A expenses decreased 7.3% to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , from $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 . This decrease was primarily due to decreases in professional services associated with our expansion and growth. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 , the Company incurred additional professional services pertaining to the acquisition of C&C. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses decreased to 4.4% for 2014 , from 4.6% in 2013 , due primarily to the decrease in SG&A expenses during the current period.

Depreciation and amortization expense, which includes $16,000 of amortization expense for acquired intangibles, increased to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 , from $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 , an increase of 16.6% . The increase in depreciation is mainly due to the increase in new equipment acquired, primarily for our electrical construction operations, as a result of our growth and expansion efforts.

Income Taxes

The following table presents our provision for income tax and effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 :



	2014			2013
Income tax provision	$	728,243		$	955,108
Effective income tax rate	38.0		%	42.7		%

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was 38.0% and reflects the annual expected income tax rate. Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was 42.7% and differs from the 2013 expected income tax rate primarily due to the change in the 2013 estimated annual operating results for the year resulting in an increase of permanent differences which increased the expected tax rate.

Discontinued Operations

Through certain of our subsidiaries and predecessor companies, we were previously engaged in mining activities and ended all such activities in December 2002. There were no discontinued operations for either of the three months ended September 30, 2014 or 2013 .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital Analysis

Our primary cash needs have been for capital expenditures and working capital. Our primary sources of cash have been cash flow from operations and borrowings under our lines of credit and equipment financing. As of September 30, 2014 , we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.1 million and working capital of $14.5 million , as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $20.2 million , and working capital of $21.9 million as of December 31, 2013 . The decline in both cash and cash equivalents and working capital was largely attributable to a net repayment of $8.5 million in debt and the net payment of $5.7 million for the acquisition of C&C.

Table of Contents

In addition to cash flow from operations, the Company has a $15.0 million revolving line of credit, of which $10.0 million was available as of September 30, 2014 . This revolving line of credit is used as a Working Capital Loan, as discussed in note 4 to the consolidated financial statements. We anticipate that this cash on hand, our credit facilities and our future cash flows from operating activities will provide sufficient cash to enable us to meet our operating needs and debt requirements for the next twelve months.

Cash Flow Analysis

The following table presents our net cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 :



	2014			2013
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	8,144,018		$	8,317,667
Net cash used in investing activities	(10,776,325		)	(9,976,879		)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(8,491,982		)	3,145,791
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(11,124,289	)	$	1,486,579

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities are comprised of net income, adjusted to reflect the timing of cash receipts and disbursements therefrom. Our cash flows are influenced by the level of operations, operating margins and the types of services we provide, as well as the stages of our electrical construction projects.

Cash provided by our operating activities totaled $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , compared to cash provided by operating activities of $8.3 million for 2013 . The decrease in cash flows from operating activities was approximately $174,000 , and was primarily due to the changes reflected in the item “accounts receivable and accrued billings,” offset by the changes in “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” during the current period.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , the change in “accounts receivable and accrued billings,” was $5.9 million compared to $(151,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 . This increase in “accounts receivable and accrued billings,” is primarily due to the decrease in the receivable balances of several large utility customers. These changes in “accounts receivable and accrued billings,” were offset by the changes in “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts.” The change in “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts,” was $(3.9 million) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , compared to $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 , primarily due to the current status of several large projects. Operating cash flows normally fluctuate relative to the status of our electrical construction projects.

Days of Sales Outstanding Analysis

We evaluate fluctuations in our “accounts receivable and accrued billings” and “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts,” for our electrical construction operations, by comparing days of sales outstanding (“DSO”). We calculate DSO as of the end of any period by utilizing the respective quarter’s electrical construction revenue to determine sales per day. We then divide “accounts receivable and accrued billings,” net of allowance for doubtful accounts at the end of the period, by sales per day, to calculate DSO for “accounts receivable and accrued billings.” To calculate DSO for “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings,” we divide “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts,” by sales per day.

For the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 , our DSO for “accounts receivable and accrued billings” were 45 and 53 , respectively, and our DSO for “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” were 37 and 21 , respectively. The increase in the DSO for “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” was primarily due to an increase in costs incurred on uncompleted contracts, from larger contracts in the beginning stages of construction. As of November 10, 2014 , we have received approximately 65.6% of our September 30, 2014 outstanding trade accounts receivable and have billed 76.6% of our “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings” balance.

Income Taxes Paid

Income tax payments decreased to $254,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , from $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 . Income taxes paid for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were primarily for the estimated 2013 income tax liability, compared to taxes paid for the same period in 2013 , which included approximately $1.0 million for the 2012 tax liability and the remaining $1.1 million for the estimated 2013 income tax liability.

Table of Contents

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , was $10.8 million , compared to cash used in investing activities of $10.0 million for 2013 . The increase in cash used in our investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , when compared to 2013 , is primarily due to the acquisition of C&C. On January 3, 2014 , PCA completed its acquisition of C&C as described in note 9 to the consolidated financial statements. The aggregate cash consideration paid, net of cash acquired, was $5.7 million , of which $101,000 was allocated to goodwill, $1.0 million to acquired intangible assets, $3.3 million to fixed assets, $2.6 million to current assets and $1.3 million to liabilities assumed.

Our investing activities also included capital expenditures of $6.8 million . Our capital expenditures are mainly attributable to purchases for the upgrading and replacement of equipment, primarily trucks and heavy machinery, used in our electrical construction operations, as well as for our expansion efforts. Our capital budget for 2014 is expected to total approximately $9.2 million , the majority of which is for continued upgrading and purchases of equipment, for our electrical construction operations. We plan to fund these purchases through our cash on hand and equipment financing, consistent with past practices.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , was $8.5 million , compared to cash provided by financing activities of $3.1 million for 2013 . Our financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 consisted mainly of repayments on our Working Capital Loan of $7.0 million , net repayments on our equipment loans totaling $3.1 million , repayments on our acquisition loan of $467,000 and installment loan repayments of $1.5 million . These repayments were offset by borrowings on our acquisition loan of $3.5 million . Our financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 consisted mainly of net borrowings on our equipment loans totaling $6.5 million and borrowings on our Working Capital Loan of $2.0 million, offset by net repayments on our Working Capital Loan of $2.0 million, on our equipment loans totaling $1.9 million and on our installment loan of $1.4 million .

We have paid no cash dividends on our Common Stock since 1933, and it is not expected that we will pay any cash dividends on our Common Stock in the immediate future.

Debt Covenants

Our debt arrangements contain various financial and other covenants including cross-default provisions whereby any default under any loans of the Company (or its subsidiaries) with the lender, will constitute a default under all of the other loans of the Company (and its subsidiaries) with the lender. The most significant of the covenants are: maximum debt to tangible net worth ratio; fixed charge coverage ratio; and asset coverage ratio. We must maintain: a tangible net worth of at least $20.0 million calculated annually; no more than $500,000 in outside debt (with certain exceptions); a maximum debt to tangible net worth ratio of no greater than 3.0 : 1.0 ; a fixed charge coverage ratio that is to equal or exceeds; 1.5 : 1.0 ; and an asset coverage ratio that is to equal or exceeds 1.2 : 1.0 , if the balance of the line of credit exceeds $5.0 million. The fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated annually using EBITDAR (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rental expense) divided by the sum of CPLTD (current portion of long term debt, excluding any amounts related to the Working Capital Loan), interest expense and rental expense. The asset coverage ratio is calculated using the sum of total billed accounts receivable and cash to the outstanding balance on the line of credit.

Our minimum tangible net worth and fixed charge coverage ratios are measured annually and were reported on our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. The ratio amounts reported on our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 , will be the ratios reported for our 2014 quarterly filings. The remaining financial ratios, outside debt limitation, maximum debt to tangible net worth and the asset coverage ratios are all calculated on a quarterly basis, although the asset coverage ratio is only applicable when the balance of the line of credit or Working Capital Loan exceeds $5.0 million as of the reporting period. We were in compliance with all of our covenants as of September 30, 2014 .

The following are computations of these most restrictive financial covenants:




Covenants Measured at Year End:	Covenant		Actual
Tangible net worth minimum	$	20,000,000	$	31,076,732
Fixed charge coverage ratio must equal or exceed	1.5 : 1.0		1.81 : 1.0
Covenants Measured at Quarter End:
Outside debt not to exceed	$	500,000	$	—
Maximum debt/tangible net worth ratio not to exceed	3.0 : 1.0		1.22 : 1.0
Asset coverage ratio must equal or exceed if LOC exceeds $5.0 million	1.2 : 1.0		N/A

Forecast

We anticipate our cash on hand and cash flows from operations and credit facilities will provide sufficient cash to enable us to meet our working capital needs, debt service requirements and planned capital expenditures, for at least the next twelve months. The amount of our planned capital expenditures will depend, to some extent, on the results of our future performance. However, our revenue, results of operations and cash flows, as well as our ability to seek additional financing, may be negatively impacted by factors including, but not limited to: a decline in demand for electrical construction services; general economic conditions; heightened competition; availability of construction materials; increased interest rates; and adverse weather conditions.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management in a timely manner. An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including John H. Sottile, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and Stephen R. Wherry, our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of September 30, 2014 . Based upon this evaluation, our management, including our CEO and our CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of September 30, 2014 , at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the third quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance, not absolute assurance, that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that the design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	Legal Proceedings.

Through certain of our subsidiaries and predecessor companies, the Company was previously engaged in mining activities and ended all such activities in December 2002. In June 2013, the Company received an inquiry from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) with respect to a previously owned mining property, the Sierra Zinc Site (the “Site”) located in Stevens County, Washington. The Company sold the Site over fifty years ago. Effective September 15, 2014, the Company and the EPA entered into an Administrative Order on Consent in settlement of the EPA matter.

For more detailed information regarding this matter and pending declaratory judgment actions with respect to insurance coverage, please see the discussion set forth in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q.
