Basis of Presentation

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “Pioneer,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc., Pioneer Transformers Ltd., Bemag Transformer Inc., Jefferson Electric, Inc. and Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, including amounts related to Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc. which are reported as discontinued operations.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the risk factors, audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and its subsidiaries included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2012.

Reverse Stock Split

The Company’s board of directors authorized a one-for-five reverse stock split on June 1, 2011, which took effect on June 20, 2011. All share and related stock option and warrant information presented in these financial statements and accompanying footnotes has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reduced number of shares resulting from this action.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies were described in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s accounting policies for the first three quarters of 2012.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted by the Company which would have a material impact on our financial statements.

The Company adopted certain amendments to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” effective January 1, 2012. These amendments include a consistent definition of fair value, enhanced disclosure requirements for “Level 3” fair value adjustments and other changes to required disclosures. Their adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted the amendments to ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income,” effective January 1, 2012. The amendments pertained to presentation and disclosure only.

The Company adopted the amendments to ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Others,” effective January 1, 2012. The amended guidance allows us to do an initial qualitative assessment of relevant events and circumstances to determine if fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not to be less than its carrying value, prior to performing the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Discontinued Operations

During September 2011, the Company committed to a plan to divest or wind down its Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc. subsidiary which was established by the Company in 2010 to market its utility scale wind turbine designs, after-sales services and equipment financing to community wind and industrial customers. This decision was part of the Company’s strategy to focus on businesses that create the most shareholder value. Weak domestic wind energy market conditions combined with the inability of the Company to establish an arrangement, on commercially acceptable terms, with a qualified third party to provide outsourced parts procurement and assembly services, caused the Company to reduce and extend further out into the future its projected sales and operating profit of the business. The decision to divest or wind down the business resulted in a non-cash asset impairment charge of $1.6 million to adjust the carrying value of the subsidiary’s assets to their fair value. This impairment charge was recognized in the third quarter of 2011 on certain inventory, property, plant and equipment and other assets. In addition, at the time the Company decided to divest or wind down this business the Company also recognized a $0.6 million charge related to expected future severance, rent and insurance payment obligations associated with this decision.

The results of operations for Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc. are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented and are summarized as follows (in thousands):

As defined in the promissory notes, an event of default includes, but is not limited to, the following: any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the borrower, a sale or transfer of substantially all the assets of the borrower, a default by the borrower relating to any indebtedness due to third parties, the incurrence of additional indebtedness by the borrower without the Company’s written consent and failure of the borrower to perform its obligations pursuant to its other agreements with the Company, including its purchase order for pad mount transformers.

Also included in Other Assets are deferred financing costs of $0.2 million and $0.0 million for the periods ended September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Debt

Canadian Credit Facilities

In June 2011, Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the parent company of Pioneer Transformers Ltd., Bemag Transformer Inc. and Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc. (the “Borrowers”), entered into a letter loan agreement with the Company’s Canadian bank (the “Canadian Facilities”) that replaced and superseded all of the Company’s prior financing arrangements with such bank. Bemag Transformer Inc. became a party to the Canadian Facilities on July 1, 2011, upon the acquisition of all of its capital shares by the Company.

The Canadian Facilities provide for up to $23.0 million CAD (approximately $23.4 million expressed in U.S. dollars) consisting of a $10.0 million demand revolving credit facility (“Facility A”) to finance ongoing operations, a $2.0 million term credit facility (“Facility B”) that financed a plant expansion, a $10.0 million term credit facility (“Facility C”) to finance acquisitions, capital expenditures or to provide funding to the Company, a $50,000 Corporate MasterCard credit facility (“Facility D”) and a $1.0 million foreign exchange settlement risk facility (“Facility E”).

The Canadian Facilities are secured by a first-ranking lien in the amount of approximately $25 million CAD on all of the present and future movable and immovable property of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries.

- 7 -

The Canadian Facilities require the Borrowers to comply on a consolidated basis with various financial covenants, including maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25, a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 2.75 and a limitation on funded debt to less than 60% of capitalization. The Canadian Facilities also restrict the ability of the Borrowers to, among other things, (i) provide any funding to any person, including affiliates, in an aggregate amount exceeding $5.0 million CAD or (ii) make distributions in an aggregate amount exceeding 50% of Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc.’s previous year’s net income.

Facility A is subject to margin criteria and borrowings bear interest at the bank’s prime rate plus 0.50% per annum on amounts borrowed in Canadian dollars, or the U.S. base rate plus 0.50% per annum or LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum on amounts borrowed in U.S. dollars.

Borrowings under Facility B bear interest at the bank’s prime rate plus 1.00% per annum with principal repayments becoming due on a five year amortization schedule.

Borrowings under Facility C are repayable according to a five year principal amortization schedule and bear interest at the following rates: if the funded debt to EBITDA ratio is equal to or greater than 2.00, the bank’s prime rate plus 1.25% per annum on amounts borrowed in Canadian dollars, or the U.S. base rate plus 1.25% per annum or LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum on amounts borrowed in U.S. dollars; or, if the funded debt to EBITDA ratio is less than 2.00, the bank’s prime rate plus 1.00% per annum on amounts borrowed in Canadian dollars, or the U.S. base rate plus 1.00% per annum or LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum on amounts borrowed in U.S. dollars. In addition, Facility C is subject to a standby fee which is calculated monthly using the unused portion of the facility at either 0.625% per annum if the funded debt to EBITDA ratio is equal to or greater than 2.00, or 0.5625% per annum if the funded debt to EBITDA ratio is less than 2.00.

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $14.0 million in U.S. dollar equivalents outstanding under the Canadian Facilities and was in compliance with its financial covenant requirements. The Company’s borrowings consisted of approximately $3.1 million outstanding under Facility A, $1.6 million outstanding under Facility B, and $9.3 million outstanding under Facility C.

United States Credit Facilities

In January 2008, the Company’s Jefferson Electric, Inc. subsidiary entered into a bank loan agreement with a U.S. bank that included a revolving credit facility, initially with a borrowing base limit of $5.0 million and a term credit facility (the “U.S. Facilities”). Monthly payments of accrued interest were required under the revolving credit facility and monthly payments of principal and accrued interest were required under the term credit facility. As of April 30, 2010, the date the Company acquired Jefferson Electric, Inc., final payment of all outstanding amounts under the U.S. Facilities became due on October 31, 2011. The interest rate under the revolving credit facility was equal to the greater of the bank’s reference rate or 6.5% per annum. The interest rate under the term credit facility was 7.27% annually. Borrowings under the U.S. Facilities were collateralized by substantially all the assets of Jefferson Electric, Inc. and were guaranteed by its Mexican subsidiary. In addition, an officer of Jefferson Electric, Inc. was a guarantor under the U.S. Facilities and he provided additional collateral to the bank in the form of common stock and a warrant to purchase shares of common stock of the Company held by him.

In November 2011, Jefferson Electric, Inc. revised its financing arrangement and extended the maturity date of the U.S. Facilities to October 31, 2012. The amended loan agreement provided for an increase in the borrowing base limit of the revolving credit facility to $6.0 million and a decrease in the interest rate to the bank’s reference rate (3.25% per annum at the time) plus 2.0%. In connection with the amendment, the Company prepaid $250,000 under the term credit facility in November 2011 and made an additional prepayment of $750,000 in January 2012. The interest rate under the term credit facility was reduced to 6.0% annually, with monthly payments of principal and accrued interest calculated based on an amortization of the then-remaining principal balance outstanding over a hypothetical 5-year term, with a final payment of all outstanding amounts due on October 31, 2012. In addition, the Company entered into a guaranty agreement with respect to Jefferson Electric, Inc.’s obligations under the U.S. Facilities and the bank released the common stock and a warrant previously pledged by the officer of Jefferson Electric, Inc.

In October 2012, Jefferson Electric, Inc. revised its financing arrangement and extended the maturity date of the U.S. Facilities to October 31, 2013. The interest rate under the revolving credit facility was reduced to a floating rate subject to a pricing grid, ranging from 2.25% to 3.50% above one month LIBOR, which can result in increases or decreases to the borrowing spread depending on Jefferson Electric, Inc.’s debt service coverage ratio. The term credit facility, which was repaid in full during July 2012, was removed from the U.S. Facilities in its entirety. Borrowings under the U.S. Facilities continue to be collateralized by substantially all the U.S. assets of Jefferson Electric, Inc., which had a net carrying value of approximately $8.4 million as of September 30, 2012 and an officer of the subsidiary remains a guarantor. The U.S. Facilities, as amended, require Jefferson Electric, Inc. to comply with certain financial covenants, including a requirement to exceed a minimum target for tangible net worth and maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio. The U.S. Facilities also restrict Jefferson Electric, Inc.’s ability to pay dividends or make distributions, advances or other transfers of assets.

- 8 -

As of September 30, 2012, Jefferson Electric, Inc. had approximately $4.3 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility and was in compliance with its financial covenant requirements.

Nexus Promissory Note

On July 25, 2012, the Company’s indirect wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, Nexus Magneticos de Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. (“Nexus”), entered into a term loan agreement with GE CF Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (“GE Capital Mexico”). At closing, GE Capital Mexico advanced to Nexus $1,652,805 under the term loan agreement, less a non-refundable commission of 1% and less a pledge of cash representing 10% of the loan amount. Immediately upon receiving the term loan advance, Nexus made an intercompany loan in the same principal amount to Jefferson Electric, Inc., its controlling shareholder. In turn, Jefferson Electric, Inc. used the intercompany loan proceeds to repay a portion of its outstanding secured indebtedness owed to its U.S. bank. The net proceeds were used by Jefferson Electric, Inc. to fully repay the principal and accrued interest that was then outstanding under its term credit facility with its U.S. bank, as well as to reduce the outstanding balance under its revolving credit facility.

The term loan from GE Capital Mexico is payable in 60 consecutive monthly installments and bears interest, payable monthly, at a rate of 6.93% per annum. The term loan may be prepaid by Nexus in increments of at least $100,000, subject to the application of certain prepayment and other fees as established in the term loan agreement. The term loan agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, including covenants that restrict Nexus’ ability to create certain liens, incur additional liabilities, make certain types of investments, engage in mergers, consolidations, significant asset sales and affiliate transactions, pay dividends, redeem or repurchase outstanding equity and make capital expenditures.

The obligations of Nexus under the term loan are secured by (i) a pledge of cash in the amount of 10% of the term loan amount, (ii) a trust agreement, pursuant to which Nexus and Jefferson Electric, Inc. transferred title to substantially all of their equipment and machinery assets located in Mexico to a Mexican bank as trustee, to serve as security for all of Nexus’ obligations under the term loan agreement, and (iii) a corporate guaranty by the Company of all of Nexus’ obligations under the term loan agreement.

The board of directors is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by law, without further vote or action by the shareholders, to issue from time to time up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value, in one or more series. Each such series of preferred stock shall have such number of shares, designations, preferences, voting powers, qualifications, and special or relative rights or privileges as shall be determined by the board of directors, which may include, among others, dividend rights, voting rights, liquidation preferences, conversion rights and preemptive rights.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company assesses the inputs used to measure the fair value of financial assets and liabilities using a three-tier hierarchy.

Level 1

Valuation is based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2

Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical or similar instruments such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity rates and yield curves, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3

Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions include management’s own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The carrying values of accounts and notes receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value. Certain assets, including long-lived assets held and used and assets held for sale are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. There were no fair value measurement losses recognized for such assets in the third quarter of 2012.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2012 and is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “Pioneer,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc., Pioneer Transformers Ltd., Bemag Transformer Inc., Jefferson Electric, Inc. and Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements,” which include information relating to future events, future financial performance, financial projections, strategies, expectations, competitive environment and regulation. Words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

Our ability to expand our business through strategic acquisitions.

Our ability to integrate acquisitions and related businesses.

Many of our competitors are better established and have significantly greater resources, and may subsidize their competitive offerings with other products and services, which may make it difficult for us to attract and retain customers.

We depend on Hydro-Quebec Utility Company and Siemens Industry, Inc. for a large portion of our business, and any change in the level of orders from Hydro-Quebec Utility Company or Siemens Industry, Inc., could have a significant impact on our results of operations.

The potential loss or departure of key personnel, including Nathan J. Mazurek, our Chairman, president and chief executive officer.

A majority of our revenue and a significant portion of our expenditures are derived or spent in Canadian dollars. However, we report our financial condition and results of operations in U.S. dollars. As a result, fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar will impact the amount of our revenues.

Our ability to generate internal growth.

Market acceptance of existing and new products.

Operating margin risk due to competitive pricing and operating efficiencies, supply chain risk, material, labor or overhead cost increases, interest rate risk and commodity risk.

Restrictive loan covenants or our ability to repay or refinance debt under our credit facilities could limit our future financing options and liquidity position and may limit our ability to grow our business.

General economic conditions and market conditions in the electrical equipment, power generation, commercial construction, industrial production, oil and gas, marine and infrastructure industries.

The impact of geopolitical activity on the economy, changes in government regulations such as income taxes, climate control initiatives, the timing or strength of an economic recovery in our markets and our ability to access capital markets.

Unanticipated increases in raw material prices or disruptions in supply could increase production costs and adversely affect our profitability.

Our chairman controls a majority of our combined voting power, and may have, or may develop in the future, interests that may diverge from yours.

Future sales of large blocks of our common stock may adversely impact our stock price.

- 12 -

The foregoing does not represent an exhaustive list of matters that may be covered by the forward-looking statements contained herein or risk factors that we are faced with that may cause our actual results to differ from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements. Moreover, new risks regularly emerge and it is not possible for us to predict or articulate all risks we face, nor can we assess the impact of all risks on our business or the extent to which any risk, or combination of risks, may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required by applicable laws or rules, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You should carefully review the risk factors and other cautionary statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and those described from time to time in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of the foregoing and other risks that relate to our business and investing in shares of our common stock.

One-for-Five Reverse Stock Split

Our board of directors authorized a one-for-five reverse stock split on June 1, 2011 which took effect on June 20, 2011. All share and related option and warrant information presented in the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations and the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reduced number of shares outstanding which resulted from this action.

Overview

We are a manufacturer of specialty electrical equipment and provide, through our three operating subsidiaries, Pioneer Transformers Ltd., Jefferson Electric, Inc. and Bemag Transformer Inc., a broad range of custom-engineered and general purpose electrical transformers for applications in the utility, industrial and commercial segments of the electrical transmission and distribution industry. We are headquartered in Fort Lee, New Jersey and presently operate from six other locations in the U.S., Canada and Mexico for manufacturing, centralized distribution, engineering, sales and administration.

On April 30, 2010, we completed the acquisition of Jefferson Electric, Inc., a Wisconsin-based manufacturer and supplier of dry-type transformers. Through transactions completed in June and August 2010 we acquired substantially all the assets and the capital stock of AAER Inc. to form Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc., a business which we are currently in the process of winding down or divesting. The results of operations for Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc. are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations.

On July 1, 2011, we completed the acquisition of all the capital stock of Bemag Transformer Inc., a Quebec-based manufacturer of low and medium voltage dry-type transformers and custom magnetics. Also on such date, we acquired all the machinery and equipment assets of Vermont Transformer, Inc., the former U.S. affiliate of Bemag Transformer Inc.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

Although we have elected to report our results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. and in U.S. dollars, our largest subsidiary, Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc. (and its subsidiaries including Pioneer Transformers Ltd., Bemag Transformer Inc. and Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc.) is a Canadian entity and its functional currency is the Canadian dollar. As such, its financial position, results of operations, cash flows and equity are initially consolidated in Canadian dollars. The subsidiary's assets and liabilities are then translated from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars by applying the foreign currency exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, while the results of our operations and cash flows are translated to U.S. dollars by applying the average foreign currency exchange rate in effect during the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income or loss.

- 13 -

The financial position and operating results of Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc. have been translated to U.S. dollars by applying the following exchange rates, expressed as the number of Canadian dollars to one U.S. dollar for each period reported:

	2012						2011
	Consolidated Balance Sheet		Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income				Consolidated Balance Sheet		Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income

Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The financial statements include estimates based on currently available information and our judgment as to the outcome of future conditions and circumstances. Significant estimates in these financial statements include pension expense, inventory provisions, useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, warranty accruals, income tax determination, stock-based compensation, allowance for doubtful accounts and estimates related to purchase price allocation. Changes in the status of certain facts or circumstances could result in material changes to the estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements and actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Results of Operations

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

Revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, our consolidated revenue increased by $1.3 million, or 7.2%, to $19.2 million, up from $17.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2011. Approximately $1.0 million of the revenue increase reflects growth in our dry-type transformer products which increased 10.3% on a year-over-year basis. This growth was led by our OEM sales channels in the U.S. and Canada, which includes shipments of medium voltage transformers, combined with modest increases in our brand label and Canadian distribution volume. Revenue from our liquid-filled transformer products increased by 3.3% during the three months ended September 30, 2012 on stable demand from key utility and industrial customers.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, our consolidated revenue increased by $11.3 million, or 22.6%, to $61.4 million, up from $50.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Approximately $4.2 million of the increase reflects growth in the transformer businesses we have owned for more than one year. The remaining $7.1 million increase in our revenue resulted from an additional six months of operations for the dry-type transformer business we acquired in July 2011. Excluding the effect of this acquisition, revenue from our dry-type transformer products increased $5.2 million, or 24.3% on a year-over-year basis, while revenue from our liquid-filled transformer products decreased by approximately $1.0 million, or 3.6%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

- 14 -

Gross Margin. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, our gross margin percentage increased to 21.9% of revenues, compared to 21.3% during the three months ended September 30, 2011. The 0.6% increase in gross margin primarily reflects improvement in our dry-type transformer products which benefited from increased production throughput and sales of higher-margin, engineered-to-order units. In addition, our gross margin percentage for liquid-filled transformer products also increased during the three months ended September 30, 2012, due primarily to favorable product mix, and represented approximately one-third of the overall increase in our gross margin percentage.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, our gross margin percentage decreased to 22.1% of revenues, compared to 23.3% during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The 1.2% decrease in gross margin was due to growth in dry-type transformer sales which represented 55% of our consolidated revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to only 43% during the same period of 2011. Our gross margin percentage for liquid-filled products remained stable during the first nine months of 2012, as compared to 2011, while our average gross margin percentage on dry-type products declined by 1.4%. This dry-type margin decline in 2012 resulted from increased sales of our less profitable designs, principally catalogue products sold through our distribution network to commercial construction customers, outpacing increases in sales of custom-engineered dry-type products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expense increased by approximately $0.3 million, or 11.1%, to $3.2 million, as compared to $2.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase was primarily due to engineering staff additions and, to a lesser extent, an increase in our corporate expenses. As a percentage of total revenue, our selling, general and administrative expense increased to 16.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to 16.1% during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expense increased by approximately $1.8 million, or 22.2%, to $9.8 million, as compared to $8.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Approximately $1.0 million of the increase was due to the inclusion of an additional six months of operations for the dry-type transformer business we acquired in July 2011. The remaining $0.8 million increase was attributable to variable costs associated with higher sales volume and to increased corporate expenses. As a percentage of total revenue, our selling, general and administrative expense decreased slightly to 15.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to 16.0% during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Foreign Exchange (Gain) Loss. During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, approximately 62% of our consolidated operating revenues were denominated in Canadian dollars and a material percentage of our expenses were denominated and disbursed in U.S. dollars. We have not historically engaged in currency hedging activities. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates between the time we initiate and then settle transactions with our customers and suppliers can have an impact on our operating results. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a gain of approximately $160,000 due to currency fluctuations, compared to a loss of approximately $48,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a gain of approximately $245,000, compared to a loss of approximately $36,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011

Interest and Bank Charges. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, interest and bank charges were approximately $270,000 and $669,000, as compared to $207,000 and $428,000 during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. The increase in interest expense was due to higher average borrowings as a result of the acquisition of Bemag Transformer Inc. in July 2011, followed by the purchase of the land and building comprising its manufacturing facility in June 2012, both of which were funded primarily through new bank borrowings.

Other Expense (Income). For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, other non-operating expense was approximately $39,000 and $69,000, as compared to $328,000 and $769,000 during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. The 2012 other expense consists primarily of a deposit that was forfeited in connection with withdrawing from a proposed debt financing transaction, as well as professional fees incurred in connection with post-closing requirements related to the acquisition of Bemag Transformer Inc. The 2011 other expense resulted from professional fees and costs incurred in connection with acquisitions, as well as the expenses of our public offering of common stock that was withdrawn due to market conditions.

Provision for Income Taxes. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, our provision for income taxes reflects an effective tax rate on earnings before income taxes of 75.0% and 40.8%, respectively, as compared to 16.5% and 23.6% during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. The increase in our effective tax rate during 2012 primarily reflects a one-time write-off of a $411,000 deferred tax asset which resulted from the transfer of certain manufacturing equipment between our U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries in connection with an equipment financing transaction that closed in July 2012. Without the effect of this non-cash charge, our effective tax rate would have been 26.9% and 28.2% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. In addition, most of our taxable income is derived in Canada where we are subject to lower corporate tax rates relative to our U.S. operations. Therefore, the increase in our effective tax rate during 2012, as compared to 2011, was also due to higher taxable income recognized by our U.S. subsidiaries.

- 15 -

Earnings from Continuing Operations. We generated earnings from continuing operations of $0.2 million and $1.9 million during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as compared to $0.3 million and $1.9 million during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. During 2012 as compared to 2011, our earnings from continuing operations benefitted from a higher operating income on increased sales for the reasons described above, partially offset by increased interest expense, a one-time non-cash income tax charge and the effect of a higher effective income tax rate. Earnings from continuing operations per basic and diluted share were $0.04 and $0.33 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as compared to $0.05 and $0.32 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011.

Backlog. Our order backlog at September 30, 2012 was $27.7 million, as compared to $24.8 million at December 31, 2011 and $23.4 million at September 30, 2011. Our backlog is based on orders expected to be delivered in the future, most of which is expected to occur during the next six months.

Discontinued Operations

As a result of our plan to divest Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc., the assets and liabilities of the business are considered held for sale as at September 30, 2012 and therefore the financial results are reported as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, our loss from discontinued operations was approximately $0.0 and $0.2 million, respectively, as compared to $2.0 million and $2.4 million during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. The 2012 net losses reflect ongoing operating and administrative expenses, costs related to asset disposals and a charge of $0.2 million related to doubtful accounts. See Note 3 “Discontinued Operations” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for further information.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General. At September 30, 2012, we had $0.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and total debt, including capital lease obligations, of $19.7 million. We have historically met our cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and short-term bank borrowings. Our cash requirements are generally for operating activities, debt repayment and capital improvements. We believe that working capital, borrowing capacity available under our credit facilities and funds generated from operations should be sufficient to finance our cash requirements for anticipated operating activities, capital improvements and principal repayments of debt through at least the next twelve months.

Cash used by our operating activities was approximately $1.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to cash used by our operating activities of $0.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The principal elements of cash used for operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $4.7 million for working capital to support our revenue growth during the period, $0.2 million related to deferred taxes and pension costs, plus $0.1 million used for discontinued operations. These uses of cash during the period were partially offset by net earnings from continuing operations of $1.9 million and $1.4 million of non-cash expenses consisting of depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation.

Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was approximately $1.8 million, as compared to $8.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 our cash used in investing activities increased primarily due to the purchase of the land and buildings comprising our Canadian dry-type transformer manufacturing facility for approximately $1.1 million. Also during 2012, we made a loan of $0.3 million to the developer of a renewable energy project in the U.S. which was extended for the purpose of securing a purchase order for our transformers. Additions to our property, plant and equipment in the ordinary course of business were $0.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $0.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Cash provided by our financing activities was approximately $2.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to cash provided of $8.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. During the 2012 period, the increase in cash from financing activities resulted from $2.0 million of increased bank overdrafts and borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, plus $1.1 million of new term debt for a facility purchase, less approximately $0.7 million which was used to pay down our outstanding term loan bank debt and capital lease obligations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the significant increase in our cash from financing activities resulted from approximately $9.7 million of new borrowings provided by our Canadian credit facilities for the acquisition of Bemag Transformer Inc., the purchase of certain assets from Vermont Transformers, Inc. and to finance the expansion of our liquid-filled transformer manufacturing plant. Also during the 2011 period, our short term bank borrowings and overdrafts increased by $2.1 million and we repaid approximately $3.4 million of long-term debt and capital lease obligations.

Canadian Credit Facilities. In June 2011, Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary and the parent company of Pioneer Transformers Ltd., Bemag Transformer Inc. and Pioneer Wind Energy Systems Inc. entered into a letter loan agreement with our Canadian bank (the “Canadian Facilities”) that replaced and superseded all of our prior financing arrangements with such bank.

The Canadian Facilities provide for up to $23.0 million CAD (approximately $23.4 million expressed in U.S. dollars) consisting of a $10.0 million CAD demand revolving credit facility (“Facility A”) to finance ongoing operations, a $2.0 million CAD term credit facility (“Facility B”) that financed a plant expansion, a $10.0 million CAD term credit facility (“Facility C”) to finance acquisitions, capital expenditures or to provide funding to our U.S. corporations, a $50,000 CAD Corporate MasterCard credit facility and a $1.0 million CAD foreign exchange settlement risk facility.

As of September 30, 2012, we had approximately $3.1 million outstanding under Facility A, $1.6 million outstanding under Facility B and $9.3 million outstanding under Facility C.

United States Credit Facilities. Our Jefferson Electric, Inc. subsidiary has a loan agreement with a U.S. bank that includes a revolving credit facility with a borrowing base limit of $6.0 million. Effective as of October 31, 2012, the credit facility was extended for an additional year and now bears interest according to a pricing grid, ranging from 2.25% to 3.50% above one month LIBOR, depending on Jefferson Electric, Inc.’s debt service coverage ratio. As of September 30, 2012, there was approximately $4.3 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

Nexus Promissory Note. On July 25, 2012, Nexus Magneticos de Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. (“Nexus”), a subsidiary of Jefferson Electric, Inc., entered into a term loan agreement with GE CF Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (“GE Capital Mexico”). At closing, GE Capital Mexico advanced to Nexus approximately $1.7 million under the term loan agreement, the net proceeds of which were used to fully repay a term note owed by Jefferson Electric, Inc. to its U.S. bank, as well as to reduce the outstanding balance under its revolving credit facility with the bank.

The term loan from GE Capital Mexico is payable in 60 consecutive monthly installments and bears interest, payable monthly, at a rate of 6.93% per annum. The obligations of Nexus under the term loan are secured by (i) a pledge of cash in the amount of 10% of the term loan amount, (ii) a trust agreement, pursuant to which Nexus and Jefferson Electric, Inc. transferred title to substantially all of their equipment and machinery assets located in Mexico to a Mexican bank as trustee, to serve as security for all of Nexus’ obligations under the term loan agreement, and (iii) a corporate guaranty by us of all of Nexus’ obligations under the term loan agreement.

Capital Expenditures. During the last twelve months, we completed the expansion of our liquid-filled transformer manufacturing facility at a cost of approximately $2.0 million and purchased our dry-type transformer facility and land in Canada at a cost of approximately $1.1 million. We are currently formulating a plan to expand and add new production equipment to the dry-type facility we recently purchased, a project which may cost approximately $1.5 million and is likely to commence before the end of the year. Otherwise, we have no major future capital projects planned, or significant replacement spending anticipated, during 2012 and 2013.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management’s Conclusions Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2012, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and participation of management including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2012.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
