PART I

Item 1. Business

General

Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp (“Tel”, “TIC” or the “Company”) has been in business since 1947, and is a leading designer and manufacturer of avionics test and measurement solutions for the global commercial air transport, general aviation, and government/military aerospace and defense markets. The Company designs, manufactures and sells instruments to test and measure, and calibrates and repairs a wide range of airborne navigation and communication equipment.

Tel’s instruments are used to test navigation and communications equipment installed in aircraft, both on the flight line (“ramp testers”) and in the maintenance shop (“bench testers”), and range in list price from $7,500 to $80,750 per unit. Tel continues to develop new products in anticipation of customers’ needs, and to maintain its strong market position. Its development of multifunction testers has made it easier for customers to perform ramp tests with less operator training, a fewer number of test sets, and lower product support costs.

The Company has become a major manufacturer and supplier of IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) flight line test equipment. The Company has been awarded two major contracts from both the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Army for IFF flight line test equipment (see below). The products under these contracts represent cutting edge technology and, together with derivative products, should provide Tel with a competitive advantage for years to come. Revenues from these programs will be the foundation for our growth for the next few years.

Tel believes it has built a solid infrastructure to support a rapidly growing business, and the outlook for the Company is positive with significant revenue expected over the next few years as a result of these new programs and other new products.

We continue to evaluate other attractive potential market opportunities although our current capital structure limits our flexibility at this time.

CRAFT “Communications/Navigation (COMM/NAV) Radio Frequency (RF) Avionics Flight line Tester”) (AN/USM-708 and AN/USM-719) with the U.S. Navy

The AN/USM-708, the basic CRAFT test set, is a key product for the Company as it represents a new generation technology product. The AN/USM-708 and AN/USM-719 (IFF only) contract was competitively awarded to the Company by the United States Navy. The AN/USM-708 CRAFT unit combines advanced IFF (including Mode 5 encryption technology) navigation, communication, and sonobuoy test capabilities in a portable test set, which will utilize a flexible and expandable digital-signal-processing-based architecture. Both the AN/USM-708 and the AN/USM-719 have been certified by the AIMS Program Office. This represents the culmination of a multi-year, multi-million dollar investment by the Company in Mode 5 technology and will provide a significant competitive advantage in the years to come as the U.S. and our NATO allies migrate to this leading edge IFF technology.

The contract for the AN/USM-708 and AN/USM-719 was a significant milestone for the Company because the development of this proprietary technology, which has been funded by the Company, establishes Tel’s position as a leader in the industry, and will meet the U.S. Navy’s test requirements for years to come. The Company believes that, given the unique nature of this design, this product will generate sales to other military customers. The AN/USM-708 contract also includes options for units testing encrypted communications and advanced data link functions, which, if exercised, would represent a major expansion in the Company’s core business. The Company believes that the core technology in the AN/USM-708 can be the foundation for additional military and commercial products

The initial contract was for 1,200 test sets with a contract value of approximately $31 million. The Company has received orders for all 1,200 test sets, and also included approximately $4.7 million for testing, documentation and qualification units. In October 2013, the Company received an additional award for CRAFT products with a maximum value of $9.5 million. This new contract is in support of the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army and various Foreign Military Sales customers under the Foreign Military Sales program. The Company has received orders totaling approximately $4.1 million under this new contract. This brings the total contract value to over $40 million with total orders received exceeding $35 million. The Company received the production release during 2012 and commenced production. Most of the CRAFT 719 and 708 units were being held at the Company in a “ship-in-place” arrangement pending receipt of the required frequency allocation from the FAA. The Company has delivered a majority of these “ship-in-place” units. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had open orders for AN/USM-708 and AN/USM-719 for 394 test sets, totaling approximately $10 million.

CRAFT “Communications/Navigation (COMM/NAV) Radio Frequency (RF) Avionics Flight line Tester”) (AN/USM-708 and AN/USM-719) with the U.S. Navy (continued)

The Company has resolved its prior quality issues, which included the final AIMS approved software configuration, including several product enhancements. The Company has been in full rate production during fiscal year 2014. The number of units shipped has been a combination of new units, upgraded ship-in-place units (already paid for by the government) and units returned for repairs from the field.

The issues identified with the CRAFT units required that all CRAFT AN/USM - 708 and CRAFT AN/USM - 719 units be updated with revised software and hardware modifications and that TIC revalidates all of the 460 ship-in-place units at TIC before they are shipped to the customer. (These ship-in-place units had been built and paid for by the U.S. Navy but could not be shipped to the field due to regulatory restrictions) TIC and the U.S. Navy have finalized the upgraded test procedure for these units. The test procedure needed to be upgraded to reflect the extensive changes to the units over the last few years. The U.S. Navy has also verified and approved these new test procedures and reviewed TIC’s quality assurance procedures. As of March 31, 2014, a total of 119 ship-in-place units out of the total of 460 remain to be upgraded.

The Company also received and shipped in fiscal year 2014 a $755,580 order from Lockheed Martin for 21 AN/USM-708 (“CRAFT”) test sets to be used on the Joint Strike Fighter program.

TS-4530 IFF test set with the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command

In February 2009, the Company was awarded a firm fixed price indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract by the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command with a maximum dollar value of approximately $44 million, depending on the number of units purchased (see Item 3, Pending Legal Proceedings). The Company’s win of the critical TS-4530A Mode 5 U.S. Army program represented another major event for our future. This award, in conjunction with our U.S. Navy CRAFT Mode 5 program, provides Tel with undisputed market leadership in the Mode 5 Identification Friend or Foe (“IFF”) business and should provide a constant revenue stream for at least the next few years. This program takes full advantage of the significant investment that the Company has made in its proprietary Mode 5 technology.

The program is for Mode 5 conversion kits and new IFF test sets, which incorporate the Company’s proprietary electronics and IFF technology in addition to Mode S Enhanced Surveillance (”EHS”) and Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (“ADS-B”) test functionality. The U.S. Army completed its production assurance review, and the Company has successfully completed testing conducted by the Department of Defense (“DOD”) AIMS Program Office to approve its TS-4530A Flight Line Test Set authorizing its use for Mark XIIA IFF (“Identification Friend or Foe”), Mode S (ELS/EHS/ADS-B) and TCAS systems. The TS-4530A program is a critical program which will help drive TIC’s revenue growth and profitability. (See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)

The Company has received approximately $26.9 million in delivery orders on the TS-4530A program out of a maximum contract value of approximately $44 million. During fiscal year 2014 the Company received a limited rate production order in the amount of $3.3 million for 235 TS-4530A sets and 128 kits. These units have been completed and the majority of these units are being held at the Company in a “ship-in-place” arrangement pending receipt of instructions from the U.S. Army. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has open orders for 2,350 kits and 687 sets, totaling $19.5 million. The Company recently received a full production release for the kits, and will commence shipment of these kits in July 2014. We expect the full rate production release for the sets to occur within the next several months.

ITATS (“Intermediate Level TACAN Test Set”) (AN/ARM-206) with the U.S. Navy

The AN/ARM-206 or ITATS is a bench test set combining advanced digital technology with state of the art automated testing capabilities. The ITATS product is a fully automated TACAN test set for use in U.S. Navy Intermediate Level repair locations. This product represents an important expansion to Tel’s current product line, and the automated testing capabilities will provide a significant labor savings benefit to our customers. This contract with the U.S. Navy has options for approximately 148 units with a total value of over $12 million. Tel has worked with an engineering sub-contractor and, as a result, this program has not required as much Tel engineering design effort as needed for the AN/USM-708. Given the unique nature of the design, this unit could also generate significant sales to other military customers, both domestically and overseas.

The ITATS development program is complete and the U.S. Navy issued a production release in February 2013 for 102 units at a contract value of $5.3 million. TIC has been having issues getting vendors on board with this program due to program and payment delays to vendors. As a result, the U.S. Navy issued a cure letter notice on June 6, 2013. The Company and the U. S. Navy worked together to secure a favorable outcome for both parties. As a result, the Company, with the help of the U.S. Navy, has resolved the open issues and shipment of the AN/ARM-206 will commence in July 2014

In January 2014, the Company received a $2.14 million contract modification on the ITATS program This contract modification entails the sale of certain Intellectual Property (“IP”) to the U.S. Navy plus the sale of ancillary test support equipment, and a modest increase in the recurring price to reflect several product enhancements. As part of this contract modification, the Company sold certain IP in the amount of $1,526,795 of which $1,200,000 of the IP sale proceeds was paid to the Company’s subcontractor on this program. As part of this of this agreement with the Company’s subcontractor, upon payment of the $1,200,000, the outstanding amount due to the subcontractor in the amount of $790,535 was discharged. The Company also received $117,095 for engineering enhancements for this program. The sale of the IP for the ITATS program should have no impact on sales of these units to the U.S. Navy or other customers.

Legacy Products

During fiscal 2014, the Company received and delivered the following significant orders:

·	U.S. Army for 50 T-47N Test Sets for a total of $858,900. This order is part of a five year IDIQ (indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity) contract for up to 235 T-47N Test Sets. After receipt of this order, a total of 75 T-47N Test Sets could be exercised under this IDIQ contract.

·	A $459,186 order from Poland, through its European distributor, for 29 T-47G Test Sets.

·	A $597,835 order from Saudi Arabia for T-47G Test Sets.

·	A $108,000 order from Continental Airlines for its TR-220 Commercial Test Set.

Historically, the Company receives regular smaller orders for both its commercial and government products, as these products are widely used in the Avionics Test Equipment market.

Table of Contents

Item 1. Business (continued)

General (continued)

Competition

The Company manufactures and sells commercial and military products as a single avionics business, and its designs and products cross both markets.

The general aviation market consists of some 1,000 avionics repair and maintenance service shops at private and commercial airports in the United States which purchase test equipment to assist in the repair of aircraft electronics. The commercial aviation market consists of approximately 80 domestic and foreign commercial airlines.

The civilian market for avionic test equipment is dominated by two designers and manufacturers, Tel and Aeroflex, with Aeroflex being substantially larger than Tel. This market is relatively narrow and highly competitive. Tel has been successful because of its high quality, new technology, user friendly products and competitive prices. In recent years commercial airlines have experienced financial difficulties, and, as a result of this, sales of avionics test equipment to airlines have been weak.

The military market is large and is dominated by large corporations with substantially greater resources than the Company, including Aeroflex. Tel competitively bids for government contracts on the basis of the engineering quality and innovation of its products, competitive price, and "small business set asides" (i.e., statutory provisions requiring the military to entertain bids only from statutorily defined small businesses), and on bids for sub-contracts from major government suppliers. There are a limited number of competitors who are qualified to bid for “small business set asides.” The military market consists of many independent purchasing agencies and offices. The process of awarding contracts is heavily regulated by the U.S. Department of Defense.

In recent years, the Company has won several large, competitively bid contracts from the military and has become the primary supplier for the U.S. Military, as well as the NATO countries, of flight line IFF test equipment. The CRAFT AN/USM-708 and TS-4530 programs, discussed previously, involve a new generation of technology, including the next generation of IFF testing, and is expected to enable the Company to continue to be a major supplier of avionics test equipment to the military for years to come. Tel believes its new technology will also allow it to increase sales to the commercial market in the future.

Marketing and Distribution

Domestic commercial sales are made throughout the U.S. to commercial airlines and general aviation businesses directly or through distributors. No direct commercial customer accounted for more than 10% of commercial sales in fiscal years 2014 and 2013. Domestic distributors receive a 15%-20% discount for stocking, selling, and, in some cases, providing product calibration and repairs. Tel gives a 5% to 15% discount to non-stocking distributors, and to independent sales representatives, depending on their sales volume and promotional effort. The loss of any one of these distributors would not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its operations. Commercial sales represented 11% and 26% of total avionics sales, respectively, for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The decrease in the percentage of commercial sales to overall sales decreased as a result of the significant increase in government sales for fiscal year 2014. Commercial sales actually declined 13% in fiscal year 2014 as compared to fiscal year 2013. No distributor represented more than 10% of commercial sales during fiscal years 2014 and 2013.

Marketing to the U.S. Government is made directly by employees of the Company or through independent sales representatives, who receive similar commissions to the commercial distributors. For the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, sales to the U.S. Government, including shipments through the government’s logistics centers, represented approximately 64% and 65%, respectively, of avionics sales. No other government customer represented over 10% of government sales for fiscal years 2014 and 2013.

International sales are made throughout the world to government and commercial customers, directly through American export agents, or through the Company’s overseas distributors at a discount reflecting a 20% to 22% selling commission, under written or oral, year-to-year arrangements. The Company has an exclusive distribution agreement with Muirhead Avionics and Accessories, Ltd (“Muirhead”), based in the United Kingdom, to represent the Company in parts of Europe, and with Milspec Services in Australia and New Zealand. Tel also sells its products through exclusive distributors in Spain, Portugal, and the Far East and is exploring distribution in other areas. For the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, total international avionics sales were 16% and 12%, respectively, of avionics sales. Additionally, the Company has an agreement with M.P.G. Instruments s.r.l., based in Italy, wherein this distributor has the exclusive sales rights for DME/P ramp and bench test units. The Company continues to explore additional marketing opportunities in other parts of the world, including the Far East. No international distributor accounted for more than 10% of total avionics sales for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company has no material assets overseas.

Marketing and Distribution (continued)

Tel also provides customers with calibration and repair services. Repairs and calibrations accounted for 5% and 15% of avionic sales for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Sales from repair and calibration services declined approximately 30% in fiscal year 2014 as compared to fiscal year 2013.

Future domestic market growth, if any, will be affected in part by whether the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) implements plans to upgrade the U.S. air traffic control system regulations and by continuing recent industry trends towards more sophisticated avionics systems, both of which would require the design and manufacture of new test equipment. The weak financial condition of the commercial airline industry also impacts growth in this segment. Military contracts are awarded and implemented by extensive government regulation. The Company believes its test equipment is recognized by its customers for its quality, durability, reliability, affordability, and by its advanced technology.

Backlog

Set forth below is Tel’s avionics backlog at March 31, 2014 and 2013.

	Commercial		Government		Total

March 31, 2014	$	529,779	$	37,061,555	$	37,591,334
March 31, 2013	$	388,941	$	35,974,074	$	36,363,015

Tel believes that most of its backlog at March 31, 2014 will be delivered during the next three fiscal years. The backlog is pursuant to purchase orders, and all of the government contracts are fully funded. However, government contracts are always susceptible to termination for convenience by the government. Historically, the Company obtains orders which are required to be filled in less than 12 months, and therefore, these anticipated orders are not reflected in the backlog.

Suppliers

Tel obtains its purchased parts from a number of suppliers. These materials are standard in the industry, and the Company foresees no difficulty in obtaining purchased parts, as needed, at acceptable prices.

Patents and Environmental Laws

Tel has no patents or licenses which are material to its business, and there are no material costs incurred to comply with environmental laws.

Engineering, Research, and Development

In the fiscal years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, Tel spent $1,853,338 and $2,149,591, respectively, on the engineering, research, and development of new and improved products. None of these amounts were sponsored by customers. Engineering, research, and development expenditures in fiscal year 2014 were made primarily for the T-4530A program, AN/USM-206, continuing engineering for the CRAFT program, and the incorporation of other product enhancements in existing designs. The Company owns all of these designs with the exception of the AN/ARM-206 design.

Tel's management believes that continued significant expenditures for engineering, research, and development are necessary to enable Tel to expand its products, sales, and profits, and to remain competitive.

Personnel

At June 18, 2014, Tel had thirty-nine full-time employees in manufacturing, materials management, and quality assurance, eleven in administration and sales, including customer services and product support, and nine in engineering, research and development, none of whom belongs to a union. From time to time, the Company also employs independent contractors to support its manufacturing, engineering, and sales organizations. At June 18, 2014, the Company utilized three independent contractors in manufacturing for assembly and test, one in sales and program management, and one in engineering. Tel has been successful in attracting skilled and experienced management, sales and engineering personnel.

Item 2. Properties

The Company leases its only facility in East Rutherford, NJ (approximately 27,000 square feet) under an operating lease agreement which expires July 31, 2016. The lease is for a five year period, beginning August 1, 2011, with a five year option in a one-story facility that will allow for a rapid ramp-up in production volume to support the Company’s customer delivery commitments (see Note 12 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Under terms of the lease, the Company is also responsible for its proportionate share of the additional rent to include all real estate taxes, insurance, snow removal, landscaping and other building charges. The Company is also responsible for the utility costs for the premises. Tel is unaware of any environmental problems in connection with its location and because of the nature of its manufacturing activities, does not anticipate such problems.

Ite m 3. Legal Proceedings

On March 24, 2009, Aeroflex Wichita, Inc. (“Aeroflex”) filed a petition against the Company and two of its employees in the District Court, Sedgwick County, Kansas, Case No. 09 CV 1141 (the “Aeroflex Action”), alleging that the Company and its two employees misappropriated Aeroflex’s proprietary technology in connection with the Company winning a substantial contract from the U.S. Army (the “Award”), to develop new Mode-5 radar test sets and kits to upgrade the existing TS-4530 radar test sets to Mode 5. Aeroflex’s petition alleges that in connection with the Award, the Company and its named employees misappropriated Aeroflex’s trade secrets; tortiously interfered with its business relationship; conspired to harm Aeroflex and tortiously interfered with its contract and seeks injunctive relief and damages. The central basis of all the claims in the Aeroflex Action is that the Company misappropriated and used Aeroflex proprietary technology and confidential information in winning the Award. In February 2009, subsequent to the Award to the Company, Aeroflex filed a protest of the Award with the Government Accounting Office (“GAO”). In its protest, Aeroflex alleged, inter alia, that the Company used Aeroflex’s proprietary technology in order to win the Award, the same material allegations as were later alleged in the Aeroflex Action. On or about March 17, 2009, the U.S. Army Contracts Attorney and the U.S. Army Contracting Officer each filed a statement with the GAO, expressly rejecting Aeroflex’s allegations that the Company used or infringed Aeroflex proprietary technology in winning the Award, and concluding that the Company had used only its own proprietary technology. On April 6, 2009, Aeroflex withdrew its protest.

In December 2009, the Kansas District Court dismissed on jurisdiction grounds the Aeroflex Action. Aeroflex appealed this decision. In May 2012, the Kansas Supreme Court reversed the decision and remanded the Aeroflex Action to the District Court for further proceedings. Discovery is ongoing. The case is set for trial on May 19, 2015. Tel is optimistic as to the outcome of this litigation. However, the outcome of any litigation is unpredictable and an adverse decision in this matter could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings (continued)

On October 9, 2013, the SEC notified the Company that it may be in violation of Section 16(a) for failure to accurately and timely file beneficial ownership reports (the “Filings”) for certain officers and directors . The Company accepted responsibility for filing all such reports on behalf of each officer and director.

The Company apparently made certain coding errors with respect to certain of the Filings, in addition to, not filing within two business days of a reportable transaction as reported by an officer or director. Based on the above, the SEC notified the Company that it may be in violation of Section 16(a). Currently, all transactions by the Holders have been disclosed with the SEC and the Company believes that the transactions which required timely Section 16(a) reports did not involve a material amount of equity securities. Additionally, no sales were made by any officer of director and the violation is related to disclosure only.

The Company has made an Offer to Settle to the Commission and is finalizing such Offer. The Company has also revised its procedures for Section 16(a) reports to ensure complete compliance.

Other than the matters outlined above, we are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of executive officers of our Company, threatened against or affecting our Company, or our common stock in which an adverse decision could have a material effect.

d) Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans (continued)

During fiscal year 2014, the Company issued 8,300 shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options granted pursuant to its 2006 Employee Stock Option Plan for an aggregate $33,020, which was added to working capital. All of the shares were issued pursuant to our S-8 Registration Statement filed on August 18, 2005 or pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 4 of the Securities Act of 1933. See Note 16 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Item 11, Executive Compensation, for information on the Company’s Employee Stock Option Plan of 2006.

In conjunction with the loan from BCA (see Note 10 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the Company issued BCA a nine-year warrant exercisable for 136,920 shares, based upon 4.5% of the fully–diluted outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock at $6.70 per share, the average closing price over the three days preceding the closing of the loan on the NYSE – MKT. In the event of specific major corporate events or the maturity of the five-year loan, BCA can require the Company to purchase the warrant shares at the higher of the then Exchange market price less, in the case of the warrant, the exercise price, or five times operating income per share.

The Company also issued to a third party warrants exercisable for 10,416 shares at $6.70 per share for five years in conjunction with the BCA loan as an additional finder’s fee.

In consideration for the waiver for non-compliance of the financial covenants and for the deferral of certain principal payments, BCA received warrants to purchase a total of 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at prices ranging from $3.33 to $3.69 during fiscal years 2014 and 2013 (see Note 10 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

In conjunction with a loan from a private investor (see Note 10 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company issued a warrant exercisable for 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.35 per share, expiring September 10, 2019.

The warrants and the shares issuable upon exercise of each warrant are restricted against transfer in violation of the securities laws.

Rule 10B-18 Transactions

During the year ended March 31, 2014, there were no repurchases of the Company’s common stock by the Company.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

Effective May 31, 2013, a Private Investor converted its total outstanding principal of $600,000, penalty of $25,000 and accrued interest for the month of May in the amount of $12,400 for a total of $637,400 for 200,000 shares of common stock at a price of $3.187 per share.

In June 2013, a related party received a note payable from the Company in exchange for $100,000 which the Company used for working capital needs. On July 24, 2013, the related party converted its note payable in the amount of $100,000 into 31,348 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $3.187 per share. The price was approved by the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company and was the same price as the 200,000 shares issued to the Private Investor upon the conversion of debt on May 31, 2013.

The securities mentioned above were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of the securities did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward Looking Statements

A number of the statements made by the Company in this report may be regarded as “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1965.

Forward-looking statements include, among others, statements concerning the Company’s outlook, pricing trends and forces within the industry, the completion dates of projects, expected sales growth, cost reduction strategies and their results, long-term goals of the Company and other statements of expectations, beliefs, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts.

All predictions as to future results contain a measure of uncertainty and accordingly, actual results could differ materially. Among the factors that could cause a difference are changes in the general economy; changes in demand for the Company’s products or in the costs and availability of its raw materials; the actions of competitors; the success of our customers, technological change; changes in employee relations; government regulations; litigation, including its inherent uncertainty; difficulties in plant operations and materials transportation; environmental matters; and other unforeseen circumstances. A number of these factors are discussed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

General

Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is intended to assist the reader in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the results of operations and financial position of the Company together with its subsidiary. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying financial notes, and with the Critical Accounting Policies noted below. The Company’s fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. Unless otherwise noted, all references in this document to a particular year shall mean the Company’s fiscal year ending on March 31.

Overview

For the year ended March 31, 2014, total sales increased $8,001,033 (102.2%) to $15,828,291 as compared to $7,827,258 for the year ended March 31, 2013. This increase is mostly attributed to the shipment of units and kits for the TS-4530A program against a partial release from the U.S. Army, an increase in revenues for the Company’s legacy products, as well as increase in revenues on the CRAFT program.

The Company recently received a full production release for the kits, and will commence shipment of these kits in July 2014. We expect the full rate production release for the sets to occur within the next several months. The Company continues to ship the AN/USM-708 CRAFT test sets. During the last quarter of fiscal year 2014 the Company has received additional orders under this contract totaling approximately $3.9 million. The Company currently has $19.7 million of existing TS-4530A orders on this Indefinite-Delivery-Indefinite Quantity (“IDIQ”) contract program. The commencement of TS-4530A volume shipments will augment the Company’s liquidity position as the Company has a substantial amount of the material in-house to commence production.

For the year ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded operating income of $1,363,902 as compared to an operating loss of $3,753,006 for the year ended March 31, 2013. This increase is due to the increase in avionics sales as discussed above as well as the reversal of a liability in the amount of $790,535, which was discharged by the vendor. The Company hopes to continue this positive trend. If the Company is unable to obtain a full rate production release of the sets on the TS-4530A program within a reasonable period of time, earnings growth could be delayed.

In October 2013, the Company received an additional contract for the CRAFT program with a maximum value of $9.5 million. The order is a not-to-exceed $9.5 million fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (“IDIQ”) contract for the manufacture and delivery of communications/navigation radio frequency avionics flight line tester CRAFT AN/USM-708 and/or AN/USM-719. This contract is in support of the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army and various Foreign Military Sales customers under the Foreign Military Sales program. This follow-on contract further strengthens our position in the industry as the predominant supplier of Mode 5 test equipment. The CRAFT unit has been well received by the end users and we look forward to working with the U.S. Navy on this program, and believe it will be the Mode 5 test set of choice for a number of years. The Company has received three delivery orders against this new contract for the additional test sets at a total value of $4.1 million. The Company currently has approximately $10.0 million of existing orders on the CRAFT program, and an option to purchase up to $5.4 million of additional units.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview (continued)

The Company has also started production on the ITATS program, and expects shipments to commence in July 2014. The Company has $5.6 million in open orders for this program.

In June 2013 a related party received a note payable from the Company in exchange for $100,000, which the Company used for working capital needs. On July 24, 2013, the related party converted its note payable in the amount of $100,000 into 31,348 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $3.187 per share.

During fiscal year 2014, the Company has not been in compliance with its financial covenants. In consideration for the waivers for non-compliance of the financial covenants, BCA received warrants and fees (see Note 10 to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

As a result of the substantial operating losses incurred in fiscal year 2013, the Company is not currently in compliance with the NYSE-MKT’s (the “Exchange”) continued listing standards. Based on the information provided by the Company on February 20, 2014, the Exchange has determined, based on the information provided and the improved results that the Company had made a reasonable demonstration of its ability to regain compliance and granted the Company an extension until July 10, 2014. As such, the Company listing is being continued pursuant to an extension and will continue to be monitored against this plan.

The Company also received a letter from the staff of the Exchange that, based on the Company’s financial statements at March 31, 2013, the Company was no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement of $4.0 million, and had also reported net losses in three of its last four fiscal years, as set forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide. The Company was afforded the opportunity to submit a plan of compliance to the Exchange and based on information provided by the Company, the Exchange notified the Company that it accepted the Company’s plan of compliance and granted an extension until November 7, 2014.

The Company is optimistic that it will demonstrate sufficient progress to maintain our NYSE-MKT listing.

In June 2013, the Company received a performance-based payment from the government in the amount of $858,050, which was used to pay old outstanding accounts payable of a significant vendor. The Company made solid progress during fiscal year 2014 in working down outstanding payables to its vendors. Based on existing and expected production releases, the Company believes that it will have adequate liquidity and backlog to fund operating plans for at least the next twelve months. Currently, the Company has no material future capital expenditure requirements.

The Company recently received a full production release for the kits and will commence shipment of these kits in July 2014. We expect the full rate production release for the sets to occur within the next several months.

Based on existing and expected production releases, the Company believes that it will have adequate liquidity, and backlog to fund operating plans for at least the next twelve months. Currently, the Company has no material future capital expenditure requirements. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will achieve profitability or will not require additional financing.

At March 31, 2014, the Company’s backlog was approximately $37.6 million as compared to approximately $36.4 million at March 31, 2013.

Results of Operations 2014 Compared to 2013

Sales

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, total sales increased $8,001,033 (102.2%) to $15,828,291 as compared to $7,827,258 for the same period in the prior year. Total Avionics sales increased $7,674,238 (98.0% to $15,501,496 for the year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $7,827,258 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. Avionics government sales increased $7,947,029 (137.5%) to $13,726,976 for the year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $5,779,947 for the year ended March 31, 2013. This increase is mostly attributed to the shipment of units and kits for the TS-4530A program against a partial release from the U.S. Army, an increase in revenues for the Company’s legacy products as well as increase in revenues on the CRAFT program. Commercial sales decreased $272,791 (13.3%) to $1,774,520 for the year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $2,047,311 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in sales is primarily attributed to lower sales from the overhaul and repairs business. The economic conditions in the commercial market remain depressed.

Results of Operations 2014 Compared to 2013

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased $5,402,665 (562.1%) to $6,363,887 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $961,222 for the prior fiscal year. Gross profit was favorably impacted by the increase in sales volume as a result of the increase in shipments of units and kits for the TS-4530A program against a partial release from the U.S. Army, an increase in revenues for the Company’s legacy products as well as an increase in revenues on the CRAFT program. The gross margin percentage for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 was 40.2% as compared to 12.3% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. Gross profit was favorably impacted by the increase in sales volume as a result of the increase in shipments of units and kits for the TS-4530A program against a partial release from the U.S. Army, an increase in revenues for the Company’s legacy products as well as an increase in revenues on the CRAFT program. The gross profit percentage was also favorably impacted by the reversal of a liability in the amount of $790,535, which was discharged by the vendor.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $582,010 (22.7%) to $3,146,647 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, as compared to $2,564,637 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. This increase was attributed to higher outside commission expenses, higher legal costs associated with the Aeroflex litigation, an increase in accrued profit sharing expense, and increased program management fees offset partially with lower personnel costs.

Engineering, research and development expenses decreased $296,253 (13.8%) to $1,853,338 for fiscal year 2014 as compared to $2,149,591 for the prior fiscal year, primarily as a result of a decrease in personnel costs as a result of the Company finalizing the engineering efforts on the CRAFT and TS-4530A programs.

Income (Loss) From Operations

As a result of the above, the Company recorded income from operations in the amount of $1,363,902 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to a loss from operations of $3,753,006 for the year ended March 31, 2013.

Other Expense

Other expense increased to $659,529 for the year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $563,145 for the year ended March 31, 2013. This change is primarily due to the higher non-cash loss on the change in the valuation of common stock warrants as compared to the prior period last year offset partially by lower interest expense, amortization of debt discount and financing costs. For year ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a non-cash loss on the change in the valuation of common stock warrants in the amount of $114,869, primarily as a result of the higher stock price, as compared to a gain in the valuation of common stock warrants in the amount of $294,785 for the year ended March 31, 2013, an unfavorable change of $409,654.

Income (Loss) before Income Taxes

As a result of the above, the Company recorded income before taxes of $704,373 for the year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to a loss before taxes of $4,316,151 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Results of Operations 2014 Compared to 2013 (continued)

Income Taxes

For the year ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes in the amount of $442,845 as compared to an income tax benefit of $1,543,580 for the year ended March 31, 2013. These amounts represent the statutory federal and state tax rate on the Company’s income (loss) before taxes. For the year ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes as the Company recorded a profit before taxes for the current fiscal year.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the above, the Company recorded net income in the amount of $261,528 for the year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to a net loss of $2,772,571 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2014, the Company had working capital of $2,452,798 as compared to $1,008,849 at March 31, 2013.

During the year ended March 31, 2014, the Company had a net decrease in cash of $78,179. The Company’s principal sources and uses of funds were as follows:

Cash provided by (used in) operating activities. For the year ended March 31, 2014, the Company generated $432,639 in cash from operations as compared to using $1,296,368 in cash for operations for the year ended March 31, 2013. This improvement is the result of the improvement in operating income, decrease in inventories and the increase in progress billings partially offset by the decrease in accounts payable and accounts receivable.

Cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $65,851 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $109,157 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 as a result of lower purchases of equipment.

Cash provided by financing activities. For the year ended March 31, 2014, the Company used $444,967 in financing activities as compared to providing $1,302,627 for the year ended March 31, 2013. During the previous fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company received net proceeds from the sale of common stock and proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt in the amount of $1,488,661 as compared to $100,000 for the year ended March 31, 2014. Additionally, the Company repaid debt and capital lease obligations of $577,987 for the year ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $324,124 for the year ended March 31, 2013.

At March 31, 2014 the Company’s backlog was approximately $37.6 million as compared to approximately $36.4 million at March 31, 2013. Historically, the Company obtains a substantial volume of orders which are required to be filled in less than twelve months, and, therefore, these anticipated orders are not reflected in the backlog.

In September 2010, the Company, pursuant to an agreement with BCA Mezzanine Fund LP, borrowed $2.5 million for five years. See Note 10 to the Financial Statements.

During the year ended March 31, 2014, the Private Investor converted the outstanding principal of $600,000, penalty of $25,000 and accrued interest for the month of May 2013 in the amount of $12,400 for a total of $637,400 into 200,000 shares of common stock at a price of $3.187 per share.

In June 2013, a related party received a note payable from the Company in exchange for $100,000, which the Company used for working capital needs. On July 24, 2013, the related party converted its note payable in the amount of $100,000 into 31,348 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $3.187 per share.

The balance due to the government on the performance-based payment at March 31, 2014 was $775,475. The Company has also made solid progress during the fiscal year 2014 in working down outstanding payables to its vendors.

There was no significant impact on the Company’s operations as a result of inflation for the year ended March 31, 2014.

Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing the financial statements and accounting for the underlying transactions and balances, the Company applies its accounting policies as disclosed in Note 2 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company’s accounting policies that require a higher degree of judgment and complexity used in the preparation of financial statements include:

Revenue recognition – revenues are recognized at the time of shipment to, or acceptance by customer, provided title and risk of loss are transferred to the customer. Provisions, when appropriate, are made where the right to return exists. In certain instances, the Company may offer the unit on trial basis. The Company does not recognize revenue until the unit has been accepted. The Company only offers product on a trial basis in rare instances, and, as such, no provision has been made at March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Revenues for repairs and calibrations of the Company’s products represent 5.2% and 14.9% of revenues for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These revenues are for units that are periodically returned for annual calibrations and/or for repairs after the warranty period has expired. Revenues on repairs and calibrations are recognized at time the repaired or calibrated unit is shipped as it is at this time that the work is completed. The Company’s terms are F.O.B. Plant, and as such, delivery has occurred, and revenue recognized, when picked up and acknowledged by a common carrier.

Due to the unique nature of the Intermediate Level TACAN Test Set (“ITATS”) contract, wherein a significant portion of this contract was not delivered for over a year, revenues under this contract were recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis, which recognizes sales and profit as they are earned, rather than at the time of shipment. Revenues and profits were estimated using the cost-to-cost method of accounting where revenues are recognized and profits recorded based upon the ratio of costs incurred to estimate of total costs at completion. The ratio of costs incurred to date to the estimate of total costs at completion was applied to the contract value to determine the revenues and profits. When adjustments in estimated contract revenues or estimated costs at completion are required, any changes from prior estimates are recognized by recording adjustments in the current period for the inception-to-date effect of the changes on current and prior periods. The Company also received progress billings on this program, which is a funding mechanism by the government to assist contractors on long-term contracts prior to delivery. These progress payments are applied to Unbilled Government Receivables resulting from revenues recognized under percentage-of-completion accounting. As of March 31, 2013, the section of this contract was completed, the customer was billed, and the unbilled government receivables were cleared.

Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are classified as sales, and the shipping and handling costs incurred are included in cost of sales.

Payments received prior to the delivery of units or services performed are recorded as deferred revenues.

Inventory reserves – inventory reserves or write-downs are estimated for excess, slow-moving and obsolete inventory as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excess of net realizable value. These estimates are based on current assessments about future demands, market conditions and related management initiatives. If market conditions and actual demands are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required. While such write-downs have historically been within our expectation and the provision established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to receive positive results.

Warranty reserves – warranty reserves are based upon historical rates and specific items that are identifiable and can be estimated at time of sale. While warranty costs have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, future warranty costs could be in excess of our warranty reserves. A significant increase in these costs could adversely affect operating results for the current period and any future periods these additional costs materialize. Warranty reserves are adjusted from time to time when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates. For the year ended March 31, 2014 warranty costs were $288,685 as compared to $203,783 for the year ended March 31, 2013.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Critical Accounting Policies (continued )

Accounts receivable – the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current credit worthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credits and payments from its customers and maintains provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. For the year ended March 31, 2014 approximately 64% of the Company’s sales were to the U.S. Government. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectation and the provision established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to receive positive results.

Income taxes - deferred tax assets arise from a variety of sources, the most significant being: a) tax losses that can be carried forward to be utilized against profits in future years; b) expenses recognized in the books but disallowed in the tax return until the associated cash flow occurs; and c) valuation changes of assets which need to be tax effected for book purposes but are deductible only when the valuation change is realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefit which is not more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, future taxable income is estimated, considering the realization of tax loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets can also be affected by changes to tax laws, changes to statutory tax rates and future taxable income levels. In the event it was determined that the Company would not be able to realize all or a portion of its deferred tax assets in the future, the Company would reduce such amounts through a charge to income in the period in which that determination is made. Conversely, if it were determined that it would be able to realize the deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net carrying amounts, Tel would decrease the recorded valuation allowance through an increase to income in the period in which that determination is made. In its evaluation of a valuation allowance, the Company takes into account existing contracts and backlog, and the probability that options under these contract awards will be exercised as well as sales of existing products. The Company prepares profit projections based on the revenue and expenses forecast to determine that such revenues will produce sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is not party to any off-balance sheet arrangements that may affect its financial position or its results of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. Accordingly, the Company will adopt this ASU on April 1, 2017. Companies may use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU and management is currently evaluating which transition approach to use. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09.

No other recently issued accounting pronouncements had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In connection with our audits of the financial statements, we have also audited the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and schedule. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp and subsidiary as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended., in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Also, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

Note s To Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Business, Organization, and Liquidity

Business and Organization

Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp (“Tel” or the “Company”) has been in business since 1947. The Company is a leading designer and manufacturer of avionics test and measurement instruments for the global, commercial air transport, general aviation, and government/military defense markets. Tel provides instruments to test, measure, calibrate, and repair a wide range of airborne navigation and communication equipment. The Company sells its equipment in both domestic and international markets. Tel continues to develop new products in anticipation of customers’ needs and to maintain its strong market position. Its development of multifunction testers has made it easier for customers to perform ramp tests with less operator training, fewer test sets, and lower product support costs. The Company has become a major manufacturer and supplier of IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) flight line test equipment and over the last few years was awarded three major military contracts.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition:

Revenues are recognized at the time of shipment to, or acceptance by the customer, provided title and risk of loss is transferred to the customer. Provisions, when appropriate, are made where the right to return exists.

Revenues for repairs and calibrations of the Company’s products represented 5.2% and 14.9% of sales for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These revenues are for units that are periodically returned for annual calibrations and/or for repairs after the warranty period has expired. Revenues on repairs and calibrations are recognized at the time the repaired or calibrated unit is shipped, as it is at this time that the work is completed. The Company’s terms are F.O.B. Plant, and as such, delivery has occurred, and revenue recognized, when picked up and acknowledged by a common carrier.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Revenue Recognition (continued):

Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are classified as sales, and the shipping and handling costs incurred are included in cost of sales.

Payments received prior to the delivery of units or services performed are recorded as deferred revenues.

With respect to warranty revenues, upon the completion of two years from the date of sale, considered to be the warranty period, the Company offers customers an optional warranty. Amounts received for warranties are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the respective terms of the agreements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The Company estimates that the fair value of all financial instruments at March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 825 “Financial Instruments”, does not differ materially, except for the items discussed below, from the aggregate carrying values of its financial instruments recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value.

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 for cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate the fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Each reporting period we evaluate market conditions including available interest rates, credit spreads relative to our credit rating and liquidity in estimating the fair value of our debt. After considering such market conditions, we estimate that the fair value of debt approximates its carrying value.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Concentrations of Credit Risk:

Cash held in banks: The Company maintains cash balances at a financial institution that is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to federally insured limits. At times balances may exceed FDIC insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts Receivable: The Company’s avionics customer base is primarily comprised of airlines, distributors, and the U.S. Government. As of March 31, 2014, the Company believes it has no significant risk related to its concentration within its accounts receivable.

Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventories are written down if the estimated net realizable value is less than the recorded value. The Company reviews the carrying cost of inventories by product to determine the adequacy of reserves for obsolescence. In accounting for inventories, the Company must make estimates regarding the estimated realizable value of inventory. The estimate is based, in part, on the Company’s forecasts of future sales and age of inventory. In accordance with industry practice, service parts inventory is included in current assets, although service parts are carried for established requirements during the serviceable lives of the products and, therefore, not all parts are expected to be sold within one year.

Equipment and Leasehold Improvements:

Office and manufacturing equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are provided on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 3 to 8 years.

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease or the useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter.

Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that do not materially add to the value of the equipment nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred.

When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is included in the Statements of Operations.

Engineering, Research and Development Costs:

Engineering, research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Advertising Expenses:

Advertising expenses consist primarily of costs for direct advertising. The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred, and classifies these costs under selling, general and administrative expenses. Advertising costs amounted to $-0- and $200 for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Deferred Revenues:

Amounts billed in advance of the period in which the service is rendered or product delivered are recorded as deferred revenue. At March 31, 2014 and 2013, deferred revenues totaled $171,102 and $19,505, respectively. See above for additional information regarding our revenue recognition policies.

Progress Billings:

Progress billings are a form of government funding for fixed-price contracts that are provided in recognition of the need for working capital, for long lead items, and work in-process expenditures. These payments from the government are recorded as progress billings in the liability section of the balance sheet. These amounts are reduced as the end item product is shipped. At March 31, 2014 and 2013, progress billings totaled $775,475 and $-0-, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share:

Basic net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed by dividing diluted net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including common stock equivalents, such as stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and excludes the anti-dilutive effects of common stock equivalents.

Accounting for Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method described in FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Deferred tax assets arise from a variety of sources, the most significant being: a) tax losses that can be carried forward to be utilized against profits in future years; b) expenses recognized for financial reporting purposes but disallowed in the tax return until the associated cash flow occurs; and c) valuation changes of assets which need to be tax effected for book purposes but are deductible only when the valuation change is realized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefit which is not more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation

Accounting for Income Taxes (continued):

allowance, future taxable income is estimated, considering the realization of tax loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets can also be affected by changes to tax laws, changes to statutory tax rates and future taxable income levels. In the event it was determined that the Company would not be able to realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets in the future, we would reduce such amounts through a charge to income in the period in which that determination is made. Conversely, if we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net carrying amounts, we would decrease the recorded valuation allowance through an increase to income in the period in which that determination is made. In its evaluation of a valuation allowance the Company takes into account existing contracts and backlog, and the probability that options under these contract awards will be exercised as well as sales of existing products. The Company prepares profit projections based on the revenue and expenses forecast to determine that such revenues will produce sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.

The Company accounts for uncertainties in income taxes under ASC 740-10-50 which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740-10 requires that the Company determine whether the benefits of its tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company recognizes the impact of an uncertain income tax position taken on its income tax return at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. The implementation of ASC 740-10 had no impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Despite the Company’s belief that its tax return positions are consistent with applicable tax laws, one or more positions may be challenged by taxing authorities. Settlement of any challenge can result in no change, a complete disallowance, or some partial adjustment reached through negotiations or litigation.

Interest and penalties related to income tax matters, if applicable, will be recognized as income tax expense. During the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 the Company did not incur any expense related to interest or penalties for income tax matters, and no such amounts were accrued as of March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Stock-based Compensation:

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation utilizing the modified prospective method under FASB ASC 718 which requires the measurement of stock-based compensation based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The Company recognizes compensation cost on awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, typically four years. The Company estimates the fair value of each option granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

Additional information and disclosure are provided in Note 16.

Long-Lived Assets:

The Company assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future, undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. No impairment losses have been recognized for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates include income taxes, percentage-of-completion sales recognition, warranty claims, inventory and accounts receivable valuations.

Reclassifications:

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Accounts Receivable:

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current credit worthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credit limits for and payments from its customers and maintains provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within the Company’s expectation and the provision established, the Company cannot guarantee that this will continue.

Warranty Reserves:

Warranty reserves are based upon historical rates and specific items that are identifiable and can be estimated at time of sale. While warranty costs have historically been within the Company’s expectations and the provisions established, future warranty costs could be in excess of the Company’s warranty reserves. A significant increase in these costs could adversely affect the Company’s operating results for the period and the periods these additional costs materialize. Warranty reserves are adjusted from time to time when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates. For the year ended March 31, 2014 warranty costs were $288,685 as compared to $203,783 for the year ended March 31, 2013. These warranty reserves are included in Accrued expenses – other in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Risks and Uncertainties:

The Company’s operations are subject to a number of risks, including but not limited to changes in the general economy, demand for the Company’s products, the success of its customers, research and development results, reliance on the government and commercial markets, litigation, and the renewal of its line of credit. The Company has major contracts with the U.S. Government, which like all government contracts are subject to termination.

New Accounting Pronouncements:

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of good or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. Accordingly, the Company will adopt this ASU on April 1, 2017. Companies may use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU and management is currently evaluating which transition approach to use. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09.

No other recently issued accounting pronouncements had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

6. Intellectual Property

In January 2014, the Company received a $2.14 million contract modification on the ITATS program. The ITATS product (“AN/ARM-206”) is a fully automated TACAN test set for use in U.S. Navy Intermediate Level repair locations. This contract modification entails the sale of certain Intellectual Property (“IP”) to the U.S. Navy plus the sale of ancillary test support equipment and an increase in the recurring price to reflect several product enhancements. The Company sold certain IP in the amount of $1,526,795, of which $1,200,000 of the IP sale proceeds was paid to the Company’s subcontractor on this program to secure the IP. As a result, the net amount of $326,795 is recorded in net sales in the accompanying Statement of Operations. As part of this agreement with the Company’s subcontractor, upon payment of the $1,200,000, the outstanding amount due to the subcontractor in the amount of $790,535 was discharged and is recorded as a reduction of cost of goods sold. The Company also received $117,095 for engineering enhancements for this program, which was recorded as sales in fiscal year 2014. The sale of the IP for the ITATS program should have no impact on future sales of these units to the U.S. Navy or other customers.

8. Income Taxes (Continued)

The recognized deferred tax asset is based upon the expected utilization of its benefit from future taxable income. The Company has federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $7,819,000 as of March 31, 2014, of which approximately $225,000 is subject to limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. These carryforward losses are available to offset future taxable income, and begin to expire in the year 2027. NJ State NOL carryforwards approximate $7,021,000 as of March 31, 2014. NJ NOL carryforwards expire in 7 years, and certain of these amounts begin to expire in 2014.

The foregoing amounts are management’s estimates and the actual results could differ from those estimates. Future profitability in this competitive industry depends on continually obtaining and fulfilling new profitable sales agreements and modifying products. The inability to obtain new profitable contracts or the failure of the Company’s engineering development efforts could reduce estimates of future profitability, which could affect the Company’s ability to realize the deferred tax assets.

A reconciliation of the income tax (benefit) provision at the statutory Federal tax rate of 34% to the income tax (benefit) provision recognized in the financial statements is as follows:

	March 31,			March 31,
	2014			2013

Income tax (benefit) provision – statutory rate	$	239,487		$	(1,467,491	)

9. Subordinated Notes – Related Parties

On February 22, 2010 the Company borrowed $250,000 in exchange for issuing Subordinated Notes to each of two Executive Officers and Directors in the amount of $125,000. Each officer and director also received 5,000 stock options at $8.00 per share, the market price at the date of grant. In September 2010, these officers/directors entered into an Intercreditor and Subordination agreement which subordinated their loans to the BCA Loan Agreement (see Note 10 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The notes were to become due April 1, 2011 with an interest rate of 1% per month, payable on a monthly basis within 14 days of the end of each month. The Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement amongst the parties precludes the payment of principal or interest under these subordinated notes unless and until the Senior Obligations have been paid in full or without the express written consent of Senior Lender. The Subordinated Note Holders agree that the Company’s failure to pay the monthly interest amounts pursuant to the terms of the February 22, 2010 Subordinated Notes will not constitute an event of default on the Notes if the Company is precluded from making these payments pursuant to the limitations included in the loan agreement with BCA. During fiscal year 2012, the Company’s Chairman, at the time, passed away. His surviving spouse has retained this Subordinated Note and continues to acknowledge the terms. Total interest expense for both amounted to $30,000 for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

10. Long-Term Debt

BCA Mezzanine Fund LLP

In September 2010 the Company entered into an agreement with BCA Mezzanine Fund LLP (“BCA”) to loan the Company $2.5 million in the form of a Promissory Note (“the “Note”). The Company incurred expenses of $541,604 in connection with this loan, including legal fees, investment banking fees and other transaction fees, including third party warrants exercisable for 10,416 shares at $6.70 per share for five years in conjunction with the BCA loan as a finder’s fee. These expenses are included as deferred financing costs in the accompanying balance sheets, and are being amortized over the term of the loan using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest rate method. For the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded amortization of deferred financing costs in the amount of $108,321. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had unamortized deferred financing costs in the amount of $156,463 of which $108,321 is classified as a current asset and $48,142 as long-term. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had unamortized deferred financing costs in the amount of $264,784 of which $108,321 is classified as a current asset and $146,463 as long-term.

The Company also issued warrants to BCA for 136,920 shares at $6.70 per share for nine years in conjunction with the loan. In connection with the initial warrants issued with this debt, the Company recorded a debt discount of $267,848. The debt discount is being amortized over the life of the loan. For each of the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded amortization of debt discount in the amount of $53,570. As of March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had unamortized discount of $77,378 and $130,948, respectively, and are classified as a reduction of long-term debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The features of the note are as follows:

The Note has a term of five (5) years with an annual interest rate of 14% on the outstanding principal amount. Payments for the first year were interest only and amounted to $28,762 monthly. In September 2011, the Company began making monthly payments of approximately $69,000 for interest and principal for the remaining term of the loan. BCA had agreed to allow the Company to defer principal payments for the three months ended September 30, 2012. BCA has also agreed to allow the Company to defer principal payments due on October 31, 2012 November 30, 2012, and June 30, 2013. These amounts are deferred until September 2015. BCA has also agreed to allow the Company to defer principal payments due on December 31, 2012 and January 31, 2013 to February 2013, at which time the Company paid these deferred principal payments.

At inception, the Company issued BCA a nine-year warrant for 136,920 shares, based upon 4.5% of the fully –diluted outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock at $6.70 per share, the average closing price over the three days preceding the loan closing on the NYSE-MKT Exchange. In the event of specific major corporate events or the maturity of the five-year loan, BCA can require the Company to purchase the warrant and warrant shares at the higher of the then Exchange market price less the share exercise price, in the case of the warrant, or five times operating income per share. In connection with the warrant issued in conjunction with this debt, the Company recorded a debt discount (see above) and warrant liability, which is marked to fair value at the end of each period (see Note 20 to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The debt discount is being amortized over the life of the loan.

Loan provisions also contain customary representations and warranties.

BCA has a lien on all of the Company’s assets. In February 2011, BCA agreed to release part of its lien on Company assets to the U.S. Government to allow for progress billings up to $1,000,000.

The Company was required to pay prepayment fees if the Company decided to prepay a portion of the principal amount during the first two years of the loan. The Company may now prepay a portion of the principal amount without any prepayment penalty. Each payment must be not less than $25,000 or multiples of $25,000 in excess thereof.

BCA Mezzanine Fund LLP (continued)

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control or within five (5) Business Days of an O’Hara Life Insurance Realization Event, the Company shall, in each case at the election of BCA, prepay by wire transfer the entire outstanding principal amount of the Note in accordance with the redemption prices (the “Mandatory redemption Prices”) set forth below (expressed as a percentage of the outstanding principal amount being prepaid and shall pay 103% in the first loan year, 102% in the second loan year, and 100% thereafter), together with (x) Interest, if any, accrued and unpaid on the outstanding principal amount of the Note so prepaid through the date of such prepayment, (y) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel), if any, associated with such prepayment, and (z) all other costs, expenses and indemnities then payable under this Agreement (such amounts, collectively the “Mandatory Redemption Payment”). If a Change of Control or O’Hara Life Insurance Realization Event shall occur during any Loan Year set forth below, the Mandatory Redemption Price shall be determined based upon the percentage indicated above for such Loan Year multiplied by the principal amount which is being prepaid. At the election of BCA, all or any portion of the Mandatory Redemption Payment may be paid in the form of Marketable Securities in lieu of cash and to the extent available and to the extent not restricted by any SBIC Regulations. In the event BCA makes the election contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer shall issue to Purchaser that number of shares having an aggregate Current Market Price as of such issuance date equal to that portion of the Mandatory Redemption Payment subject to such election.

The BCA notes contain a number of affirmative and negative covenants which could restrict our operations. For the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company was not in compliance with two covenants related to maintaining agreed upon financial ratios for fixed charges and debt service. In June 2014, the Company was granted a waiver for non-compliance of the financial covenants as of March 31, 2014.

The Company and BCA have amended certain provisions to ease some restrictions, including non-compliance with financial covenants, deferral of principal payments, and approval to obtain progress payments from the government.

In consideration for the waiver for non-compliance of the financial covenants at March 31, 2012, BCA received warrants to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The common stock underlying the warrant is exercisable at a price of $3.35 per share and the warrants expire on September 10, 2019. Determining the warrant value to be recorded requires us to develop estimates to be used in calculating the fair value of the warrant. The fair value of the warrant is calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The value of the warrant was charged to debt discount in the accompanying balance sheet in the amount of $26,477 for the year ended March 31, 2013 and will be amortized over the remaining term of the loan.

In consideration for the waiver for non-compliance of the financial covenants as September 30, 2012 and for the deferral of principal payments due on October 31 and November 30, 2012 to the end of the term of the loan (maturity), BCA received warrants to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The common stock underlying the warrants is exercisable at a price of $3.56 per share and the warrant expires on September 10, 2019.

Private Investor

On July 26, 2012 the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with a private investor (the “Private Investor”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued (i) a senior secured promissory note in favor of the Private Investor in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000, approximately $489,000 net of expenses, accruing interest at a rate of 14% per annum and (ii) a common stock purchase warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share. The Note, together with all unpaid interest and principal was due on March 31, 2013. The common stock underlying the warrant is exercisable at a price of $3.35 per share and the warrant expires on September 10, 2019. In conjunction with the Purchase Agreement the Company entered into an (i) Investor Rights Agreement, (ii) Securities Agreement, (iii) Intercreditor Agreement and (iv) Subordination Agreement.

In connection with the warrants issued in conjunction with this debt, the Company recorded a debt discount and warrant liability, which is being marked to fair value at the end of each period (see Note 20 to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company adjusts the value of the warrant liability (see Note 20) to fair value and recognizes the change in valuation in our statement of operations each reporting period. Determining the the fair value of the warrant liability requires estimates to be used utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model and the value at issuance was $66,193. The corresponding debt discount was amortized over the life of the loan and was fully amortized as of March 31, 2013.

10. Long-Term Debt (continued)

Private Investor (continued)

The promissory note, dated July 26, 2012 with the Private Investor, contains a number of affirmative and negative covenants which restrict our operations. For the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company was not in compliance with four covenants related to maintaining agreed upon financial ratios for fixed charges, leverage and debt service as well as a requirement for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). However, the Company received a waiver on each of the above mentioned covenants.

The Company did not pay the $600,000 due as of March 31, 2013. As a consequence the Company incurred a $25,000 penalty and the default interest of an additional 10%. The Company paid the default interest for the month of April. Effective May 31, 2013, the Private Investor converted the outstanding principal of $600,000, penalty of $25,000 and accrued interest for the month of May 2013 in the amount of $12,400 for a total of $637,400 into 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $3.187 per share. The fair value of these shares at the date of conversion was $3.32 per share. As such, the Company recorded a loss on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $26,600 and this amount is included in the accompanying statement of operations. As further consideration to the Private Investor, the Company agreed that each time the Company issues any new shares of its common stock in the next two years (excluding the exercise of existing stock options and warrants currently outstanding), at a price lower than a purchase price of $3.187 per share, the Company will issue additional shares to the Private Investor, for no additional consideration, based on the differential between the $3.187 price and the price paid for the newly issued shares of common stock. No new shares have been issued to the Private Investor.

Automobile Loan

In March 2014, the Company entered into a loan with Ford Credit for its van in the amount of $23,712. The Note has a term of five (5) years with an annual interest rate of 8.79% with monthly payments of $492. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2014 was $23,538.

The annual maturities of long-term debt for the five fiscal years subsequent to March 31, 2014 are as follows:

2015	$	718,848

14. Significant Customer Concentrations

For the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, sales to the U.S. Government represented approximately 64% and 65%, respectively of net sales. No other individual customer represented over 10% of net sales for these years. No customer or distributor accounted for more than 10% of commercial or government net sales.

Net sales to foreign customers were $2,517,159 and $933,426 for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. All other sales were to customers located in the U.S. The following table presents net sales by U.S. and foreign countries:

Foreign countries		2,517,159		933,426
Total Avionics Sales	$	15,828,291	$	7,827,258

Net sales related to any single foreign country did not comprise more than 10% of consolidated net avionics sales. The Company had no assets outside the United States.

As of March 31, 2014, two customers accounted for a total of 60% of the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2013, one individual customer balance represented 13% of the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable. Receivables from the U.S. Government represented approximately 26% and 53%, respectively, of total receivables at March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

15. Subscription Agreements

On September 26, 2012, the Company secured an equity purchase commitment for up to $500,000 in total from the Chief Executive Officer, a director and an affiliate to the Company to be called upon at the Company’s discretion. The stock subscription agreements provide for the sale of up to $500,000 of newly issued restricted shares at a price of $3.60 per share, the closing average price of the Company’s common stock following the signing of the individual stock subscription agreements. All of the $500,000 has been called upon by the Company as of December 31, 2012, and the Company issued 138,890 shares of restricted stock in exchange for this amount to the three investors. This financing was used for general business purposes.

The price was determined to be fair by a Special Valuation Committee of the Board, composed of Messrs. Robert H. Walker and Robert A. Rice, who did not participate in this share purchase.

In November 2012, the Company received $500,000 from an investment group in exchange for 149,534 shares of newly issued Company common stock at a price of $3.35 per share. These funds were also used for general operating purposes.

16. Stock Option Plans

In March 2006, the Board of Directors adopted the 2006 Stock Option Plan (“the Plan”) which reserved for issuance options to purchase up to 250,000 shares of its Common Stock. The stockholders approved the Plan at the December 2006 annual meeting. The Plan, which has a term of ten years from the date of adoption, is administered by the Board of Directors or by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors. The selection of participants, allotment of shares, and other conditions related to the grant of options, to the extent not set forth in the Plan, are determined by the Board of Directors. Options granted under the Plan are exercisable up to a period of 5 years from the date of grant at an exercise price which is not less than the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, except as to a stockholder owning 10% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company, as to whom the exercise price must not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. Options, for the most part are exercisable, on a cumulative basis, 20% at or after each of the first, second, and third anniversary of the grant and 40% after the fourth year anniversary. These terms can be modified based upon approval of the Board of Directors.

16. Stock Option Plan (continued)

The fair value of each option awarded is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected life of the options granted represents the period of time from date of grant to expiration (5 years). The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant. The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $1.76 and $1.40, respectively, on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

	Dividend Yield			Risk-free Interest rate			Volatility			Life
2014		0.0	%		1.37	%		46.31	%	5 years
2013		0.0	%		0.79	%		45.30	%	5 years

A summary of the status of the Company’s stock option plans for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and changes during the years are presented below: (in number of options):

	Number of Options			Average Exercise Price		Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding options at April 1, 2012		201,100		$	5.14

Outstanding options at March 31, 2014		88,000		$	6.12	2.0 years	$	11,200
Vested Options:
March 31, 2014:		61,800		$	6.12	1.2 years	$	9,200
March 31, 2013:		71,100		$	5.14	1.4 years	$	-0-

Remaining options available for grant were 237,278 and 218,978 as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $3,760 and $38,940, respectively. Cash received from the exercise of stock options for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $33,020 and $138,090, respectively.

For the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the unamortized compensation expense for stock options was $39,255 and $108,807, respectively. Unamortized compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1 year.

A summary of the Company’s non-vested shares as of March 31, 2014, and changes during the year ended March 31, 2014 is presented below:

Non-vested Shares	Shares			Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair value

Non-vested at April 1, 2013		43,500		$	6.18

Non-vested at March 31, 2014		26,200		$	6.13

The compensation cost that has been charged was $84,742 and $81,517 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the statement of operations for share-based compensation arrangements was $3,468 and $7,190 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and relates to the compensation cost associated with non-qualified stock options

17. Net Diluted Income (Loss) per Share

Net income (loss) per share has been computed according to FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” which requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS represents net (loss) income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during a reporting period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities, including warrants and options, were converted into common stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding warrants and options is reflected in earnings per share by use of the treasury stock method. In applying the treasury stock method for stock-based compensation arrangements, the assumed proceeds are computed as the sum of the amount the employee must pay upon exercise and the amounts of average unrecognized compensation costs attributed to future services.

	March 31, 2014		March 31, 2013
Basic net income (loss) per share computation:
Net income(loss)	$	261,528	$	(2,772,571	)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding		3,204,028		2,834,257
Basic net income (loss) per share	$	0.08	$	(0.98	)
Diluted net income (loss) per share computation
Net income (loss)	$	261,528	$	(2,772,571	)
Add: Change in fair value of warrants		71,757		-
Diluted income (loss)		333,285		(2,772,571	)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding		3,204,028		2,834,257
Incremental shares attributable to the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants		24,866		-
Total adjusted weighted-average shares		3,228,894		2,834,257
Diluted net income (loss) per share	$	0.10	$	(0.98	)

For the year ended March 31, 2014, 78,000 stock options and 147,336 warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted income per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

For the year ended March 31, 2013, all outstanding warrants and options were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

18. Segment Information

In accordance with FASB ASC 280, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and related information”, the Company determined it has two reportable segments - avionics government and avionics commercial. There are no inter-segment revenues.

The Company is organized primarily on the basis of its avionics products. The avionics government segment consists primarily of the design, manufacture, and sale of test equipment to the U.S. and foreign governments and militaries either directly or through distributors. The avionics commercial segment consists of design, manufacture, and sale of test equipment to domestic and foreign airlines, directly or through commercial distributors, and to general aviation repair and maintenance shops. The Company develops and designs test equipment for the avionics industry and as such, the Company’s products and designs cross segments.

Management evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on gross margin. The Company’s general and administrative costs and sales and marketing expenses, and engineering costs are not segment specific. As a result, all operating expenses are not managed on a segment basis. Net interest includes expenses on debt and income earned on cash balances, both maintained at the corporate level. Segment assets include accounts receivable and work-in-process inventory. Asset information, other than accounts receivable and work-in-process inventory, is not reported, since the Company does not produce such information internally. All long-lived assets are located in the U.S.

The table below presents information about reportable segments for the years ended March 31:

20. Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and prescribes disclosures about fair value measurements.

As defined in ASC 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options and collars.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

The valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

Market approach — Uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities

Income approach — Uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations about those future amounts, including present value techniques, option-pricing models and excess earnings method

Cost approach — Based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost)

The carrying value of the Company’s borrowings is a reasonable estimate of its fair value as borrowings under the Company’s credit facility have variable rates that reflect currently available terms and conditions for similar debt.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The guidance in ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, requires that we mark the value of our warrant to market and recognize the change in valuation in our statement of operations each reporting period. Determining the warrant liability to be recorded requires us to develop estimates to be used in calculating the fair value of the warrant. The fair value of the warrant is calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value of our Level 3 financial liabilities for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 as well as the unrealized gains or losses included in income.

	March 31, 2014		March 31, 2013
Fair value, at beginning of period	$	198,330	$	355,290

New issuances		41,110		137,825
Change in fair value		114,869		(294,785	)

Fair value, at end of period	$	354,309	$	198,330

20. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The common stock warrant was not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign corporation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and, as such, all changes in the fair value of these warrants are recognized as other income/expense in the statement of operations until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. Since these common stock warrants do not trade in an active securities market, the Company recognizes a warrant liability and estimates the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes options model using the following assumptions:

Values at Inception

The volatility calculation was based on the 51 months of the Company’s stock price prior to the measurement date, utilizing January 1, 2010 as the initial period, as the Company believes that this is the best indicator of future performance. The source of the risk free interest rate is the US Treasury rate related to 7 year notes. The exercise price is per the agreement, the fair market value is the closing price of our stock on the date of measurement, and the expected life is based on management’s current estimate of when the warrants will be exercised. All inputs to the Black-Scholes options model are evaluated each reporting period.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

There are no reportable events under this item for the year ended March 31, 2014.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

As of March 31, 2014, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2014, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Tel’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance of such reliability and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management has conducted, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Accounting Officer, an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2014. Management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting used the criteria set forth in SEC Release 33-8810 based on the 1992 framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies . Based on this evaluation, Management concluded that our system of internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2014, based on these criteria.

c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

Item 9B. Other Information

None.

Options Exercised and Stock Vested During Fiscal Year 2014

No shares were acquired upon exercising options awards by our named executive officers (“NEOs”) during fiscal year 2014.

Options granted to NEOs are consistent with the terms of options granted to other employees pursuant to the Employee Stock Option Plans (see Note 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Options granted to NEOs may be tax sheltered to the grantee, and their value constitutes a charge to the Company (see Notes 2 and 16 to the Financial Statements).

Incentive Plan

The Company has a key man incentive compensation program. Each year the Compensation Committee determines a percentage of operating profits to be distributed among senior employees, including NEOs. The percentage determined is based on the general performance of the Company, and the amount of operating profits available for shareholders and for reinvestment in the business. This element of compensation provides an incentive for short-term performance.

The percentage of operating profits so determined is then distributed to senior employees, including NEOs and to a category entitled "incentive", based on (a) the amount of the employee's base salary, (b) his contribution to the Company, (c) the results of that contribution, (d) an estimated amount of his "special effort" on behalf of the Company, (e) his technical expertise, leadership, and management skills, and (f) the level of the overall compensation paid employees performing similar work in competitive companies. For the year ended March 31, 2014, the CEO will receive $20,000 and the PAO will receive $5,000, pending Board approval. No incentive awards were made to the NEOs for the year ended March 31, 2013.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

In March 2006, the Board of Directors adopted the 2006 Stock Option Plan (“the Plan”) which reserved for issuance options to purchase up to 250,000 shares of its Common Stock. The stockholders approved the Plan at the December 2006 annual meeting. The Plan, which has a term of ten years from the date of adoption, is administered by the Board of Directors or by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors. The selection of participants, allotment of shares, and other conditions related to the grant of options, to the extent not set forth in the Plan, are determined by the Board of Directors. Options granted under the Plan are exercisable up to a period of 5 years from the date of grant at an exercise price which is not less than the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, except as to a stockholder owning 10% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company, as to whom the exercise price must not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. Options are exercisable, on a cumulative basis, 20% at or after each of the first, second, and third anniversary of the grant and 40% after the fourth year anniversary.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had no individual employment agreements. On May 12, 2014, Mr. Michael Schirmer became COO of the Company with a base salary of $160,000. Mr Schirmer also received incentive stock options for 10,000 shares at an exercise price of $5.14 per share. In the event the Company is sold, Mr. Schirmer will receive nine (9) months of salary continuation, provided he does not receive a comparable position at the new company.

Item 13 . Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

On February 22, 2010 the Company borrowed $250,000 in exchange for issuing Subordinated Notes to each of two Executive Officers and Directors in the amount of $125,000. Each officer and director also received 5,000 stock options at $8.00 per share, the market price at the date of grant. In September 2010, these officers/directors entered into an Intercreditor and Subordination agreement which subordinated their loans to the BCA Loan Agreement (see Note 9 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The notes were to become due April 1, 2011 with an interest rate of 1% per month, payable on a monthly basis within 14 days of the end of each month. The Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement amongst the parties precludes the payment of principal or interest under these subordinated notes unless and until the Senior Obligations have been paid in full or without the express written consent of Senior Lender. The Subordinated Note Holders agree that the Company’s failure to pay the monthly interest amounts pursuant to the terms of the February 22, 2010 Subordinated Notes will not constitute an event of default on the Notes if the Company is precluded from making these payments pursuant to the limitations included in the loan agreement with BCA. During fiscal year 2012, the Company’s Chairman, at the time, passed away. His surviving spouse has retained this Subordinated Note and continues to acknowledge the terms. Interest expense amounted to $30,000 for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
