Triumph Group, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Triumph Group, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals, except for the preliminary allocation of the purchase price of the Companys acquisition of Vought Aircraft Industries, Inc. (Vought) completed on June 16, 2010 (see Note 3)) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
The Company designs, engineers, manufactures, repairs and overhauls a broad portfolio of aerostructures, aircraft components, accessories, subassemblies and systems. The Company serves a broad, worldwide spectrum of the aviation industry, including original equipment manufacturers of commercial, regional, business and military aircraft and aircraft components, as well as commercial and regional airlines and air cargo carriers.
As discussed in Note 3, on June 16, 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of Vought. The Companys first quarter fiscal 2011 consolidated financial statements are inclusive of Voughts operations from June 16, 2010 through June 30, 2010. Management believes that the acquisition of Vought significantly advances its technical capabilities and enhances its ability to offer aerostructure systems solutions to its customers. The integration of Vought with Triumph creates a leading Tier One Capable supplier with strong positions in commercial and military platforms. Strategically, the acquisition of Vought provides further diversification across customers and programs, as well as exposure to new growth platforms.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-year amounts in order to conform to the current-year presentation.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are generally recognized in accordance with the contract terms when products are shipped, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, pricing is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. The Aftermarket Services Group provides repair and overhaul services, certain of which services are provided under long term power-by-the-hour contracts. The Company applies the proportional performance method to recognize revenue under these contracts. Revenue is recognized over the contract period as units are delivered based on the relative value in proportion to the total estimated contract consideration. In estimating the total contract consideration, management evaluates the projected utilization of its customers fleet over the term of the contract, in connection with the related estimated repair and overhaul servicing requirements to the fleet based on such utilization. Changes in utilization of the fleet by customers, among other factors, may have an impact on these estimates and require adjustments to estimates of revenue to be realized.
A significant portion of the Companys contracts are within the scope of the Revenue - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) and revenue and costs on contracts are recognized using percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Accounting for the revenue and profit on a contract requires estimates of (1) the contract value or total contract revenue, (2) the total costs at completion, which is equal to the sum of the actual incurred costs to date on the contract and the estimated costs to complete the contracts scope of work and (3) the measurement of progress towards completion. Depending on the contract, the Company measures progress toward completion using either the cost-to-cost method or the units-of-delivery method, with the great majority measured under the units of delivery method.
Triumph Group, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
· Under the cost-to-cost method, progress toward completion is measured as the ratio of total costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion. Costs are recognized as incurred. Profit is determined based on estimated profit margin on the contract multiplied by progress toward completion. Revenue represents the sum of costs and profit on the contract for the period.
· Under the units-of-delivery method, revenue on a contract is recorded as the units are delivered and accepted during the period at an amount equal to the contractual selling price of those units. The costs recorded on a contract under the units-of-delivery method are equal to the total costs at completion divided by the total units to be delivered. As contracts can span multiple years, the Company often segments the contracts into production lots for the purposes of accumulating and allocating cost. Profit is recognized as the difference between revenue for the units delivered and the estimated costs for the units delivered.
Adjustments to original estimates for a contracts revenues, estimated costs at completion and estimated total profit are often required as work progresses under a contract, as experience is gained and as more information is obtained, even though the scope of work required under the contract may not change, or if contract modifications occur. These estimates are also sensitive to the assumed rate of production. Generally, the longer it takes to complete the contract quantity, the more relative overhead that contract will absorb. The impact of revisions in cost estimates is recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions are made. Provisions for anticipated losses on contracts are recorded in the period in which they become evident (forward losses) and are first offset against costs that are included in inventory, with any remaining amount reflected in accrued contract liabilities in accordance with the Construction and Production-Type Contracts topic. Revisions in contract estimates, if significant, can materially affect results of operations and cash flows, as well as valuation of inventory. Furthermore, certain contracts are combined or segmented for revenue recognition in accordance with the Construction and Production-Type Contracts topic.
Amounts representing contract change orders or claims are only included in revenue when such change orders or claims have been settled with the customer and to the extent that units have been delivered. Additionally, some contracts may contain provisions for revenue sharing, price re-determination, requests for equitable adjustments, change orders or cost and/or performance incentives. Such amounts or incentives are included in contract value when the amounts can be reliably estimated and their realization is reasonably assured.
Although fixed-price contracts, which extend several years into the future, generally permit the Company to keep unexpected profits if costs are less than projected, the Company also bears the risk that increased or unexpected costs may reduce profit or cause the Company to sustain losses on the contract. In a fixed-price contract, the Company must fully absorb cost overruns, not withstanding the difficulty of estimating all of the costs the Company will incur in performing these contracts and in projecting the ultimate level of revenue that may otherwise be achieved.
Failure to anticipate technical problems, estimate delivery reductions, estimate costs accurately or control costs during performance of a fixed price contract may reduce the profitability of a fixed price contract or cause a loss. The Company believes that it has recognized adequate provisions in the financial statements for losses on fixed-price contracts, but cannot be certain that the contract loss provisions will be adequate to cover all actual future losses.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable include amounts billed and currently due from customers, amounts currently due but unbilled, certain estimated contract changes and amounts retained by the customer pending contract

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
completion. Unbilled amounts are generally billed and collected within one year. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from customers.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Companys trade accounts receivable are exposed to credit risk. However, the risk is limited due to the diversity of the customer base and the customer bases wide geographical area. Trade accounts receivable from The Boeing Company (Boeing) (representing commercial, military and space) represented approximately 40% and 26% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively. The Company had no other significant concentrations of credit risk. Sales to Boeing for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $149,297, or 37% of net sales, of which $141,265 and $8,032 were from the Aerospace Systems segment and Aftermarket Services segment, respectively. Sales to Boeing for the three months ended June 30, 2009 were $89,232, or 28% of net sales, of which $79,428 and $9,804 were from the Aerospace Systems segment and Aftermarket Services segment, respectively. No other single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Companys net sales. However, the loss of any significant customer, including Boeing, could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its operating subsidiaries.
Inventories
Inventoried costs primarily relate to work in process under fixed-price contracts. They represent accumulated contract costs less the portion of such costs allocated to delivered items. Accumulated contract costs include direct production costs, manufacturing and engineering overhead, and production tooling costs.
Advance Payments and Progress Payments
Advance payments and progress payments received on contracts-in-process are first offset against related contract costs that are included in inventory, with any remaining amount reflected in current liabilities under the Accrued expenses caption.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for share-based awards based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $641 and $880, respectively. The benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation expense were $183 and $98 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company has classified share-based compensation within selling, general and administrative expenses to correspond with the same line item as the majority of the cash compensation paid to employees. Upon the exercise of stock options or vesting of restricted stock, the Company first transfers treasury stock, then will issue new shares.

Recording of assets acquired and liabilities assumed: The transaction has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Certain estimated values are not yet finalized (see below) and are subject to change. The Company will finalize the amounts recognized as the information necessary to complete the analyses is obtained. The Company expects to finalize these amounts during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2011. Under U.S. GAAP, the measurement period shall not exceed one year from the acquisition date.

3. ACQUISITIONS (continued)
Debt: Simultaneously with the closing of the acquisition of Vought, the Company repaid $603,111 of Voughts debt and accrued interest in connection with the closing, including $270,000 in 8% senior notes, $320,710 in senior credit facilities and $12,401 in accrued but unpaid interest.
Pension obligations: The Company assumed several defined benefit pension plans covering some of Voughts employees. Certain employee groups are ineligible to participate in the plans or have ceased to accrue additional benefits under the plans based upon their company service or years of service accrued under the plans. Benefits under the defined benefit plans are based on years of service and, for most non-represented employees, on average compensation for certain years. It is the Companys policy to fund at least the minimum amount required for all qualified plans, using actuarial cost methods and assumptions acceptable under U.S. Government regulations, by making payments into a trust separate from us. The Company also assumed certain other post-retirement benefit plans (OPEB), namely healthcare and life insurance benefits for eligible retired employees, which are unfunded.
The following is an estimate of the funded position of the assumed pension and OPEB plans as of the acquisition date, as well as the associated weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations:

The pension plan assets are invested in various asset classes that are expected to produce a sufficient level of diversification and investment return over the long-term. The investment goals are to exceed the assumed actuarial rate of return over the long-term within reasonable and prudent levels of risk and to preserve the real purchasing power of assets to meet future obligations. The allocation guidelines of the pension plan assets are as follows: public equity - 53% to 61%; alternative investment funds - 2% to 12%, fixed income investments - 28% to 34% and real estate funds - 3% to 7%.
Goodwill: Goodwill in the amount of $996,940 was recognized for this acquisition and is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Specifically, goodwill recorded as part of the acquisition of Vought includes:
· the expected synergies and other benefits that the Company believes will result from combining the operations of Vought with the operations of Triumph;
· any intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition such as assembled workforce; and
· the value of the going-concern element of Voughts existing businesses (the higher rate of return on the assembled collection of net assets versus acquiring all of the net assets separately).
The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

3. ACQUISITIONS (continued)
The recorded amounts for assets and liabilities are provisional and subject to change. The following items still are subject to change:
· amounts for intangibles and property and equipment pending finalization of valuation efforts;
· amounts for pension and other post-retirement benefit obligations pending the finalization of actuarial valuation efforts;
· amounts for income tax assets, receivables and liabilities pending the filing of Voughts pre-acquisition tax returns and the receipt of information from the taxing authorities which may change certain estimates and assumptions used; and
· the allocation of goodwill among reporting units.
A single estimate of fair value results from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and relies heavily on estimates and assumptions. Judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as well as asset lives, can materially impact results of operations.
Pro forma impact of the acquisition: The unaudited pro forma results presented below include the effects of the acquisition of Vought as if it had been consummated as of April 1, 2009. The pro forma results include the amortization associated with an estimate for acquired intangible assets and interest expense associated with debt used to fund the acquisition, as well as fair value adjustments for property & equipment, off market contracts and favorable leases. To better reflect the combined operating results, material nonrecurring charges directly attributable to the transaction have been excluded. In addition, the pro forma results do not include any anticipated synergies or other expected benefits of the acquisition. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated as of April 1, 2009.

3. ACQUISITIONS (Continued)
for Triumph Fabrications St. Louis, Inc. were included in the Companys Aftermarket Services segment as of March 31, 2010, have been reclassified to the Companys Aerospace Systems segment as of and during the quarter ended June 30, 2010.
The acquisitions of DCL and Fabritech are herein referred to as the fiscal 2010 acquisitions. The combined purchase price for the fiscal 2010 acquisitions of $33,913 includes cash paid at closing, deferred payments and estimated contingent payments. The estimated contingent payments represent an earnout contingent upon the achievement of certain earnings levels during the earnout period. The maximum amounts payable in respect of fiscal 2011, 2012 and 2013 are $6,400, $5,000 and $4,600, respectively. The estimated fair value of the earnout note at the date of acquisition of $10,500, classified as a Level 3 liability in the fair value hierarchy. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired of $22,391 was recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes. The Company has also identified intangible assets valued at approximately $4,100 with a weighted-average life of 10.0 years. The Company is awaiting final appraisal of tangible and intangible assets related to the fiscal 2010 acquisitions. Accordingly, the Company has recorded its best estimate of the value of intangible assets, property and equipment and contingent consideration. Therefore, the allocation of purchase price for the fiscal 2010 acquisitions is not complete.

3. ACQUISITIONS (Continued)
The unaudited pro forma information includes adjustments for interest expense that would have been incurred to finance the purchase, additional depreciation based on the estimated fair market value of the property and equipment acquired, and the amortization of the intangible assets arising from the transactions. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the Company as it would have been had the transaction been effected on the assumed date.
4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
In September 2007, the Company decided to sell Triumph Precision Castings Co., a casting facility in its Aftermarket Services segment that specializes in producing high-quality hot gas path components for aero and land-based gas turbines. The Company recognized a pretax loss of $3,500 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 based upon a write-down of the carrying value of the business to estimated fair value less costs to sell. The write-down was applied to inventory and long-lived assets, consisting primarily of property, plant and equipment.
Due to failed negotiations with certain potential buyers of the business occurring during fiscal 2010, the Company reassessed its estimated fair value of the business based on current viable offers to purchase the business, recent performance results and overall market conditions, resulting in a write-down, which was applied to accounts receivable, inventory and property, plant and equipment. The Company recognized a pretax loss of $17,383 in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. Included in the loss from discontinued operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 is an impairment charge of $2,512 recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
Revenues of discontinued operations were $480 and $986 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The loss from discontinued operations was $208 and $3,482, net of income tax benefit of $112 and $1,875 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Included in the loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2009 is an impairment charge of $2,512. Interest expense of $63 and $804 was allocated to discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, based upon the actual borrowings of the operations, and such interest expense is included in the loss from discontinued operations.

Credit Facility
On May 10, 2010, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the Credit Facility). The Credit Facility became available on June 16, 2010 in connection with the consummation of the acquisition of Vought. The obligations under the Credit Facility and related documents are secured by liens on substantially all assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries pursuant to a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of June 16, 2010, among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company party thereto. Such liens are pari passu to the liens securing the Companys obligations under the Term Loan described below pursuant to an intercreditor agreement dated June 16, 2010 among the agents under the Credit Facility and the Term Loan, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries that are borrowers and/or guarantors under the Credit Facility and the Term Loan (the Intercreditor Agreement). In connection with entering into the Credit Facility, the Company incurred approximately $2,666 of financing costs. These costs, along with the $3,763 of unamortized financing costs prior to the closing, are being amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility replaced and refinanced the Companys Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of August 14, 2009 (the 2009 Credit Agreement), which agreement was terminated and all obligations thereunder paid in full upon the consummation of the acquisition of Vought.

6. LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)
Pursuant to the Credit Facility, the Company can borrow, repay and re-borrow revolving credit loans, and cause to be issued letters of credit, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $535,000 outstanding at any time. The comparable limit under the 2009 Credit Agreement was $485,000. Approximately $148,600 in loans were drawn under the Credit Facility in connection with the consummation of the acquisition of Vought. The Credit Facility bears interest at either: (i) LIBOR plus between 2.25% and 3.50%; (ii) the prime rate; or (iii) an overnight rate at the option of the Company. The applicable interest rate is based upon the Companys ratio of total indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.300% and 0.500% on the unused portion of the Credit Facility. The Companys obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Companys domestic subsidiaries.
At June 30, 2010, there were $85,000 in borrowings and $46,855 in letters of credit outstanding under the facility. At March 31, 2010, there were no borrowings and $6,123 in letters of credit outstanding under the 2009 Credit Agreement. The level of unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility varies from time to time depending in part upon its compliance with financial and other covenants set forth in the related agreement. The Company is currently in compliance with all such covenants. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had borrowing capacity under this facility of $403,145 after reductions for borrowings and letters of credit outstanding under the facility.
Receivables Securitization Program
In June 2010, the Company entered into an amended receivable securitization facility (the Securitization Facility), increasing the purchase limit from $125,000 to $175,000. In connection with the Securitization Facility, the Company sells on a revolving basis certain accounts receivable to Triumph Receivables, LLC, a wholly-owned special-purpose entity, which in turn sells a percentage ownership interest in the receivables to commercial paper conduits sponsored by financial institutions. The Company is the servicer of the accounts receivable under the Securitization Facility. As of June 30, 2010, the maximum amount available under the Securitization Facility was $118,600. The Securitization Facility is due to expire in June 2011 and is subject to annual renewal through August 2013. Interest rates are based on prevailing market rates for short-term commercial paper plus a program fee and a commitment fee. The program fee is 0.50% on the amount outstanding under the Securitization Facility. Additionally, the commitment fee is 0.65% on 102% of the maximum amount available under the Securitization Facility. At June 30, 2010, there was $120,000 outstanding under the Securitization Facility. In connection with amending the Securitization Facility, the Company incurred approximately $461 of financing costs. These costs, along with the $540 of unamortized financing costs prior to the amendment, are being amortized over the life of the Securitization Facility. The Company securitizes its accounts receivable, which are generally non-interest bearing, in transactions that are accounted for as borrowings pursuant to the Transfers and Servicing topic of the ASC.
The agreement governing the Securitization Facility contains restrictions and covenants which include limitations on the making of certain restricted payments, creation of certain liens, and certain corporate acts such as mergers, consolidations and the sale of substantially all assets.
Equipment Leasing Facility and Other Capital Leases
During March 2009, the Company entered into a 7-year Master Lease Agreement (the Leasing Facility) creating a capital lease of certain existing property and equipment, resulting in net proceeds of $58,546 after deducting debt issuance costs of approximately $188. During June 2009, the Company added additional capital leases resulting in proceeds of $6,669. The net proceeds from the Leasing Facility were used to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility. The debt issuance costs have been recorded as other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are

being amortized over the term of the Leasing Facility. The Leasing Facility bears interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 6.2% per annum.
During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company entered into new capital leases in the amount of $6,804 to finance a portion of the Companys capital additions for the period.
Term Loan Credit Agreement
The Company entered into a term loan credit agreement dated as of June 16, 2010 (the Term Loan), which proceeds were used to partially finance the acquisition of Vought. The Term Loan provides for a six-year term loan in a principal amount of $350,000, repayable in equal quarterly installments at a rate of 1.00% of the original principal amount per year, with the balance payable on the final maturity date. The proceeds of the loans under the Term Loan, which were 99.500% of the principal amount, were used to consummate the acquisition of Vought. In connection with the closing on the Term Loan, the Company incurred approximately $7,452 of costs, which were deferred and are being amortized into expense over the term of Term Loan.
The obligations under the Term Loan are guaranteed by substantially all of the Companys domestic subsidiaries and secured by liens on substantially all of the Companys and the guarantors assets pursuant to a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (the Term Loan Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) and certain other collateral agreements, in each case subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. Borrowings under the Term Loan bear interest, at the Companys option, at either the base rate (subject to a 2.50% floor), plus a margin between 1.750% and 2.000%, or at the Eurodollar Rate (subject to a 1.50% floor), plus a margin driven by net leverage between 2.750% and 3.000%.
The Term Loan contains certain covenants, restrictions and events of default, in each case substantially similar to those under the Credit Facility including, but not limited to, a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum senior leverage ratio, and a minimum interest coverage ratio. The Company is currently in compliance with all such covenants. In addition, the Term Loan provides for mandatory principal prepayments on the term loans outstanding thereunder under certain circumstances.
Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2017
On November 16, 2009, the Company issued $175,000 principal amount of 8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the 2017 Notes). The 2017 Notes were sold at 98.558% of principal amount and have an effective interest yield of 8.25%. Interest on the 2017 Notes is payable semiannually in cash in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year. In connection with the issuance of the 2017 Notes, the Company incurred approximately $4,390 of costs, which were deferred and are being amortized on the effective interest method over the term of the 2017 Notes.
The 2017 Notes are senior subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company and rank subordinated to all of the existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantor Subsidiaries (as defined below), including borrowings under the Companys existing Credit Facility, and pari passu with the Companys and the Guarantor Subsidiaries existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness. The 2017 Notes are guaranteed, on a full, joint and several basis, by each of the Companys domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantees any of the Companys debt or that of any of the Companys restricted subsidiaries under the Credit Facility, and in the future by any domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee any of the Companys debt or that of any of the Companys domestic restricted subsidiaries incurred under any credit facility (collectively, the Guarantor Subsidiaries), in each case on a senior subordinated basis. If the Company is unable to make payments on the 2017 Notes when they are due, each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries would be obligated to make such payments.

6. LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)
The Company has the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2017 Notes at any time prior to November 15, 2013 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2017 Notes redeemed, plus an applicable premium set forth in the Indenture and accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The 2017 Notes are also subject to redemption, in whole or in part, at any time on or after November 15, 2013, at redemption prices equal to (i) 104% of the principal amount of the 2017 Notes redeemed, if redeemed prior to November 15, 2014, (ii) 102% of the principal amount of the 2017 Notes redeemed, if redeemed prior to November 15, 2015, and (iii) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, if redeemed thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, at any time prior to November 15, 2012, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the 2017 Notes with the net cash proceeds of qualified equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 108% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, subject to certain limitations set forth in the indenture governing the 2017 Notes (the 2017 Indenture).
Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the Company must offer to purchase the 2017 Notes from holders at 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. This change of control feature represents an embedded derivative. Since it is in the control of the Company to call the 2017 Notes at any time after November 15, 2013, the value of the derivative was determined to be de minimis. Accordingly, no value has been assigned at issuance or at June 30, 2010.
The 2017 Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Companys ability and the ability of any of the Guarantor Subsidiaries to (i) grant liens on its assets, (ii) make dividend payments, other distributions or other restricted payments, (iii) incur restrictions on the ability of the Guarantor Subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments, (iv) enter into sale and leaseback transactions, (v) merge, consolidate, transfer or dispose of substantially all of their assets, (vi) incur additional indebtedness, (vii) use the proceeds from sales of assets, including capital stock of restricted subsidiaries, and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.
Senior Notes due 2018
On June 16, 2010, in connection with the acquisition of Vought, the Company issued $350,000 principal amount of 8.625% Senior Notes due 2018 (the 2018 Notes). The 2018 Notes were sold at 99.270% of principal amount and have an effective interest yield of 8.75%. Interest on the Notes accrues at the rate of 8.625% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on January 15, 2011. In connection with the issuance of the 2018 Notes, the Company incurred approximately $7,062 of costs, which were deferred and are being amortized on the effective interest method over the term of the 2018 Notes.
The 2018 Notes are the Companys senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of its other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of its existing and future subordinated indebtedness. The 2018 Notes are guaranteed on a full, joint and several basis by each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries.
The Company may redeem some or all of the 2018 Notes prior to July 15, 2014 by paying a make-whole premium. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2018 Notes on or after July 15, 2014 at specified redemption prices. In addition, prior to July 15, 2013, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the 2018 Notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 108.625% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, subject to certain limitations set forth in the indenture governing the 2018 Notes (the 2018 Indenture).

6. LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)
The Company is obligated to offer to repurchase the 2018 Notes at a price of (a) 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as a result of certain change of control events and (b) 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in the event of certain asset sales. These restrictions and prohibitions are subject to certain qualifications and exceptions. This change of control feature represents an embedded derivative. Since it is within control of the Company to call the 2018 Notes at any time after July 15, 2014, the value of the derivative was determined to be de minimis. Accordingly, no value has been assigned as of June 30, 2010.
The 2018 Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Companys ability and the ability of any of the Guarantor Subsidiaries to (i) grant liens on its assets, (ii) make dividend payments, other distributions or other restricted payments, (iii) incur restrictions on the ability of the Guarantor Subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments, (iv) enter into sale and leaseback transactions, (v) merge, consolidate, transfer or dispose of substantially all of their assets, (vi) incur additional indebtedness, (vii) use the proceeds from sales of assets, including capital stock of restricted subsidiaries, and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.
Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes
On September 18, 2006, the Company issued $201,250 in convertible senior subordinated notes (the Notes). The Notes are direct, unsecured, senior subordinated obligations of the Company, and rank (i) junior in right of payment to all of the Companys existing and future senior indebtedness, (ii) equal in right of payment with any other future senior subordinated indebtedness, and (iii) senior in right of payment to all subordinated indebtedness. During fiscal 2009, the Company paid $15,420 to purchase $18,000 in principal amount of the Notes, resulting in a reduction in the carrying amount of the Notes of $16,283 and a gain on extinguishment of $880.
The Company received net proceeds from the sale of the Notes of approximately $194,998 after deducting debt issuance expenses of approximately $6,252. The use of the net proceeds from the sale was for prepayment of the Companys outstanding senior notes, including a make-whole premium, fees and expenses in connection with the prepayment, and to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the Companys then existing credit facility. Debt issuance costs have been recorded as other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over a period of five years.
The Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.625% per annum, payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on each April 1 and October 1. During the period commencing on October 6, 2011 and ending on, but excluding, April 1, 2012 and for each six-month period from October 1 to March 31 or from April 1 to September 30 thereafter, the Company will pay contingent interest during the applicable interest period if the average trading price of a Note for the five consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the first day of the relevant six-month period equals or exceeds 120% of the principal amount of the Notes. The contingent interest payable per Note in respect of any six-month period will equal 0.25% per annum, calculated on the average trading price of a Note for the relevant five trading day period. This contingent interest feature represents an embedded derivative. Since it is within the control of the Company to call the Notes at any time after October 6, 2011, the value of the derivative was determined to be de minimis. Accordingly, no value has been assigned at issuance or at June 30, 2010.
The Notes mature on October 1, 2026, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased or converted. The Company may redeem the Notes for cash, either in whole or in part, at any time on or after October 6, 2011 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest and additional amounts, if any, up to but not including the date of redemption. In addition, holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes on October 1, 2011, 2016 and 2021, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest and additional amounts, if any, up to, but not including, the date of repurchase. The Notes are convertible into the Companys common stock at a rate equal to 18.3655 shares per $1,000 principal amount

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
6. LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)
of the Notes (equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $54.45 per share), subject to adjustment as described in the Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company will deliver to the holder surrendering the Notes for conversion, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, an amount consisting of cash equal to the lesser of $1,000 and the Companys total conversion obligation and, to the extent that the Companys total conversion obligation exceeds $1,000, at the Companys election, cash or shares of the Companys common stock in respect of the remainder.
The Notes are eligible for conversion upon meeting certain conditions as provided in the indenture governing the Notes. For the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively, the Notes were not eligible for conversion. Accordingly, the Company has classified the Notes as long-term as of June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively.
To be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, the average price of the Companys common stock for the quarter must exceed the conversion price per share of $54.45. The average price of the Companys common stock for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 was $70.41 and $40.96, respectively. Therefore, 745,376 and zero additional shares were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation as of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. If the Company undergoes a fundamental change, holders of the Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest and additional amounts, if any.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company changed its method of accounting for its convertible debt instruments in order to separately account for the liability and equity components of the Notes in a manner that reflects the Companys nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest and amortization cost is recognized in subsequent periods. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount has been recognized as debt discount and amortized using the effective interest method. As of June 30, 2010, the remaining discount of $7,881 will be amortized on the effective interest method through October 1, 2011. The debt and equity components recognized for the Notes as of June 30, 2010 were as follows:

7. DERIVATIVES
Interest Rate Swap
The Company follows the Derivatives and Hedging topic of ASC to account for its interest rate swaps, which requires that all derivatives be recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The standards also require that changes in the fair value be recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on the effectiveness of the hedge transaction. Interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. Changes in the fair value of a cash flow hedge, to the extent the hedge is effective, are recorded, net of tax, in other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders equity, until earnings are affected by the variability of the hedged cash flows. Cash flow hedge ineffectiveness, defined as the extent that the changes in the fair value of the derivative exceed the variability of cash flows of the forecasted transaction, is recorded currently in earnings.
In March 2008, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement (the Swap), maturing June 2011 involving the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreement, without exchange of the underlying principal amount. Under the Swap, the Company receives interest equivalent to the one-month LIBOR and pays a fixed rate of interest of 2.925 percent with settlements occurring monthly. The objective of the hedge is to eliminate the variability of cash flows in interest payments for $85,000 of floating rate debt. To maintain hedge accounting for the Swap, the Company is committed to maintaining at least $85,000 in borrowings at an interest rate based on one-month LIBOR, plus an applicable margin, through June 2011.
In December 2009, the Company elected to de-designate the Swap as a hedge prospectively. As a result, changes in fair value from the date of de-designation are recognized through interest expense and other in the consolidated statement of income. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, $479 was recognized as a reduction to interest expense and other for the change in fair value of the Swap.
As of June 30, 2010, the total notional amount of the Companys receive-variable/pay-fixed interest rate swap was $85,000. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, $579 of losses were reclassified into earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income.
The fair value of the interest rate swap of $2,053 and $2,527 as of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively, were included in Other noncurrent liabilities.

8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company follows the Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures topic of the ASC, which requires additional disclosures about the Companys assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
Level 3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability
The following table provides the assets reported at fair value and measured on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2010:

The fair value of the interest rate swap contract is determined using observable current market information as of the reporting date such as the prevailing LIBOR-based interest rate. The fair value of the contingent earnout at the date of acquisition was $10,500 which was estimated using the income approach based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market. Key assumptions included a discount rate and probability assessments of each milestone payment being made. The assumptions used to develop the estimate have not changed since the date of acquisition, with the exception of the present value factor.
The Financial Instruments topic of the ASC requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments. These estimated fair values as of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010 have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop estimates of fair value. The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of alternative market assumptions and estimation methodologies could have had a material effect on these estimates of fair value.
Carrying amounts and the related estimated fair values of the Companys financial instruments not recorded at fair value in the financial statements are as follows:

8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)
The fair value of the long-term debt was calculated based on interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Companys existing debt arrangements, unless quoted market prices were available.
Except for long-term debt, the Company's financial instruments are highly liquid or have short-term maturities. Therefore, the recorded value is approximately equal to the fair value. The financial instruments held by the Company could potentially expose it to a concentration of credit risk. The Company invests its excess cash in money market funds and other deposit instruments placed with major banks and financial institutions. The Company has established guidelines related to diversification and maturities to maintain safety and liquidity.

The weighted average common shares outstanding basic includes the 7,496,165 shares issued as partial consideration in the acquisition of Vought for the pro-rata portion of the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (See Note 3). The period to date weighted average calculations will continue to be impacted by the issuance of the shares for the remainder of fiscal 2011.
10. INCOME TAXES
The Company follows the Income Taxes topic of the ASC, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, as well as guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
The Company has classified uncertain tax positions as non-current income tax liabilities unless expected to be paid in one year. Penalties and tax-related interest expense are reported as a component of income tax expense. As of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the total amount of accrued income tax-related interest and penalties was $424 and $403, respectively.
As of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $7,687 and $4,434, respectively, of which $6,652 and $3,331, respectively, would impact the effective rate, if recognized. The Company anticipates that total unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced by $625 due to the expiration of statutes of limitation for various federal tax issues in the next 12 months.
The Company has filed appeals in a prior state tax examination jurisdiction related to fiscal years ended March 31, 1999 through March 31, 2005. The fiscal years ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 are currently being examined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company believes appropriate provisions for all outstanding issues have been made for all jurisdictions and all open years.
The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was 45.2% reflecting the non-deductibility of certain acquisition related expenses in the quarter, as well as the absence of the Research and Development tax credit, which expired December 31, 2009.
With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years ended before March 31, 2007, state or local examinations for fiscal years ended before March 31, 2006, or foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years ended before March 31, 2007.

12. SEGMENTS
The Company has two reportable segments: the Aerospace Systems Group and the Aftermarket Services Group. The Companys Aerospace Systems Group segment consists of 51 operating locations and the Aftermarket Services segment consists of 13 operating locations at June 30, 2010.
The Aerospace Systems segment consists of the Companys operations that manufacture products primarily for the aerospace OEM market. The segments operations design and engineer mechanical and electromechanical controls, such as hydraulic systems, main engine gearbox assemblies, accumulators and mechanical control cables. The segments revenues are also derived from stretch forming, die forming, milling, bonding, machining, welding and assembly and fabrication of complex aerostructures and various structural components used in aircraft wings, fuselages, tail assemblies, engine nacelles, flight control surfaces as well as helicopter cabins. Further, the segments operations also design and manufacture composite assemblies for floor panels, environmental control system ducts and non-structural cockpit components. These products are sold to various aerospace OEMs on a global basis.
The Aftermarket Services segment consists of the Companys operations that provide maintenance, repair and overhaul services to both commercial and military markets on components and accessories manufactured by third parties. Maintenance, repair and overhaul revenues are derived from services on auxiliary power units, airframe and engine accessories, including constant-speed drives, cabin compressors, starters and generators, and pneumatic drive units. In addition, the segments operations repair and overhaul thrust reversers, nacelle components and flight control surfaces. The segments operations also perform repair and overhaul services and supply spare parts for various types of cockpit instruments and gauges for a broad range of commercial airlines on a worldwide basis.
In anticipation of the acquisition of Vought in early fiscal 2011, management began to consider certain organizational changes in an effort to align the operations reporting units. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the reorganization on the Companys externally reported segments in accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting.
Segment operating income is total segment revenue reduced by operating expenses identifiable with that segment. Corporate includes general corporate administrative costs and any other costs not identifiable with one of the Companys segments.

The Company does not accumulate net sales information by product or service or groups of similar products and services, and therefore the Company does not disclose net sales by product or service because to do so would be impracticable.

14. RELATED PARTIES
The Company has a commercial relationship with Wesco Aircraft Hardware Corp. (Wesco), a distributor of aerospace hardware and provider of inventory management services under which Wesco provides aerospace hardware to us pursuant to long-term contracts. The Carlyle Group owns a majority stake in Wesco, and is the Companys largest shareholder. The Carlyle Group may indirectly benefit from its economic interest in Wesco from its contractual relationships with us. The total amount paid to Wesco pursuant to the Companys contracts with Wesco for the three month period ended June 30, 2010 was approximately $148.
15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In July 2010, the Company made approximately $71,600 in contributions, including voluntary contributions of $50,000, to the Companys defined benefit pension plans, using cash on hand as well as availability under the Credit Facility.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
(The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein.)
OVERVIEW
We are a major supplier to the aerospace industry and have two operating segments: (i) Triumph Aerospace Systems Group, whose companies design, engineer and manufacture a wide range of proprietary and build-to-print components, assemblies and systems for the global aerospace original equipment manufacturers, or OEM, market; and (ii) Triumph Aftermarket Services Group, whose companies serve aircraft fleets, notably commercial airlines, the U.S. military and cargo carriers, through the maintenance, repair and overhaul of aircraft components and accessories manufactured by third parties.
On June 16, 2010, we announced the completion of the acquisition of Vought Aircraft Industries, Inc. (Vought) from The Carlyle Group. The acquired business is operating as Triumph Aerostructures-Vought Commercial Division and Triumph Aerostructures-Vought Integrated Programs Division.
· Net sales for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011 increased 28.5% to $406.4 million, including 2.1% increase due to organic growth.
· Operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 decreased 13.3% to $32.9 million, which included $17.4 million of acquisition-related expenses associated with the acquisition of Vought.
· Income from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 decreased 46.2% to $11.6 million, due to the acquisition-related expenses associated with the acquisition of Vought.
· Backlog increased to $3.3 billion due to the acquisition of Vought, having an organic increase of 1% from the prior year, but an organic decrease of 1% sequentially from the prior quarter.
· Income from continuing operations was $0.62 per diluted common share, which included the effect of $0.71 per diluted share for acquisition-related expenses associated with the acquisition of Vought.
· We generated $22.7 million of cash flow from operating activities.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following includes a discussion of our consolidated and business segment results of operations. The Companys diverse structure and customer base do not provide for precise comparisons of the impact of price and volume changes to our results. However, we have disclosed the significant variances between the respective periods.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We prepare and publicly release quarterly unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In accordance with recent Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) guidance on Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, we also disclose and discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures in our public releases. Currently, the non-GAAP financial measures that we disclose are EBITDA, which is our income from continuing operations before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA, which is EBITDA adjusted for acquisition-related costs associated with the acquisition of Vought. We disclose EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated and an operating segment basis in our earnings releases, investor conference calls and filings with the SEC. The non-GAAP financial measures that we use may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Also, in the future, we may disclose different non-GAAP financial measures in order to help our investors more meaningfully evaluate and compare our future results of operations to our previously reported results of operations.
We view EBITDA as an operating performance measure and as such we believe that the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to it is income from continuing operations. In calculating EBITDA, we exclude from income from continuing operations the financial items that we believe should be separately identified to provide additional analysis of the financial components of the day-to-day operation of our business. We have outlined below the type and scope of these exclusions and the material limitations on the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as a result of these exclusions. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity, as an alternative to net income (loss), income from continuing operations, or as an indicator of any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors in our securities should not rely on EBITDA as a substitute for any GAAP financial measure, including net income (loss) or income from continuing operations. In addition, we urge investors and potential investors in our securities to carefully review the reconciliation of EBITDA to income from continuing operations set forth below, in our earnings releases and in other filings with the SEC and to carefully review the GAAP financial information included as part of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K that are filed with the SEC, as well as our quarterly earnings releases, and compare the GAAP financial information with our EBITDA.
EBITDA is used by management to internally measure our operating and management performance and by investors as a supplemental financial measure to evaluate the performance of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, we believe provides additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business. We have spent more than 15 years expanding our product and service capabilities partially through acquisitions of complementary businesses. Due to the expansion of our operations, which included acquisitions, our income from continuing operations has included significant charges for depreciation and amortization. EBITDA excludes these charges and provides meaningful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from charges for depreciation and amortization. We believe the disclosure of EBITDA helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare our performance from quarter to quarter and from year to year. We also believe EBITDA is a measure of our ongoing operating performance because the isolation of non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization, and non-operating items, such as interest and income taxes, provides additional information about our cost structure, and, over time, helps track our operating progress. In addition, investors, securities analysts and others have regularly relied on EBITDA to provide a financial measure by which to compare our operating performance against that of other companies in our industry.
Set forth below are descriptions of the financial items that have been excluded from our income from continuing operations to calculate EBITDA and the material limitations associated with using this non-GAAP financial measure as compared to income from continuing operations:
· Amortization expense may be useful for investors to consider because it represents the estimated attrition of our acquired customer base and the diminishing value of product rights and licenses. We do not believe these charges necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash charges related to our operating cost structure.
· Depreciation may be useful for investors to consider because it generally represents the wear and tear on our property and equipment used in our operations. We do not believe these charges necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash charges related to our operating cost structure.
· The amount of interest expense and other we incur may be useful for investors to consider and may result in current cash inflows or outflows. However, we do not consider the amount of interest expense and other to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.
· Income tax expense may be useful for investors to consider because it generally represents the taxes which may be payable for the period and the change in deferred income taxes during the period and may reduce the amount of funds otherwise available for use in our business. However, we do not consider the amount of income tax expense to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.
Management compensates for the above-described limitations of using non-GAAP measures by using a non-GAAP measure only to supplement our GAAP results and to provide additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business.
The following table shows our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA reconciled to our income from continuing operations for the indicated periods (in thousands):

Net sales increased by $90.3 million, or 28.5%, to $406.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $316.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The acquisition of Vought along with the acquisitions of Fabritech, Inc. (now Triumph Fabrications St. Louis) and DCL Avionics, Inc. (now part of Triumph Instruments Burbank), collectively, the fiscal 2010 acquisitions, contributed $83.5 million of the net sales increase. Excluding the effects of the acquisition of Vought and the fiscal 2010 acquisitions, organic sales increased $6.7 million, or 2.1%.
Cost of sales increased by $73.5 million, or 32.8%, to $297.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $224.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. This increase includes the impact of the acquisition of Vought and the fiscal 2010 acquisitions noted above, which contributed $69.9 million.
Excluding the effects of these acquisitions, gross margin was 29.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, compared with 29.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Segment operating income increased by $14.3 million, or 32.2%, to $58.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $44.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The segment operating income increase was a direct result of contributions from the acquisition of Vought and the fiscal 2010 acquisitions ($8.7 million), as well as improvement in organic gross margin ($3.0 million), decreased legal expenses ($2.0 million) including the net recovery of $0.8 million of prior legal costs and a favorable settlement of a retroactive pricing agreement, offset by costs related to the signing of a collective bargaining agreement.
Corporate expenses increased by $19.3 million, or 301.5%, to $25.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $6.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Corporate expenses included $17.4 million of non-recurring acquisition-related transaction and integration costs associated with the acquisition of Vought. The remaining corporate expense increase was impacted by higher salaries and bonus ($3.4 million) due to increased corporate head count as compared to the prior year period and an increase of $0.2 million of start up costs related to the Mexican facility compared to the prior year period.
Interest expense and other increased by $6.5 million, or 121.4%, to $11.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to $5.3 million for the prior year period. This increase was due to higher average debt outstanding during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2009, including the Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the 2017 Notes), the Senior Notes due 2018 (the 2018 Notes) and the Term Loan, along with higher interest rates on our revolving credit facility.
The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was 45.0% compared to 33.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The effective income tax rate is impacted by the $17.4 million in acquisition-related expenses, which were only partially deductible for tax purposes. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011, the Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 36%.
Loss from discontinued operations before income taxes was $0.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared with a loss from discontinued operations before income taxes of $5.4 million, for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, which includes an impairment charge of $2.5 million. The benefit for income taxes was $0.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to a benefit of $1.9 million in the prior year period.
Business Segment Performance
The Aerospace Systems segment consists of the Companys operations that manufacture products primarily for the aerospace OEM market. The Aerospace Systems segments operations design and engineer mechanical and electromechanical controls, such as hydraulic systems and components, main engine gearbox assemblies, accumulators and mechanical control cables. The Aerospace Systems segments revenues are also derived from stretch forming, die forming, milling, bonding, machining, welding and assembly and fabrication of complex aerostructures and various structural components used in aircraft wings, fuselages, tail assemblies, engine nacelles, flight control surfaces as well as helicopter cabins. Further, the segments operations also design and manufacture composite assemblies for floor panels, environmental control system ducts and non-structural cockpit components. These products are sold to various aerospace OEMs on a global basis.
The Aftermarket Services segment consists of the Companys operations that provide maintenance, repair and overhaul services to both commercial and military markets on components and accessories manufactured by third parties. Maintenance, repair and overhaul revenues are derived from services on auxiliary power units, airframe and engine accessories, including constant-speed drives, cabin compressors, starters and generators, and pneumatic drive units. In addition, the Aftermarket Services segments operations repair and overhaul thrust reversers, nacelle components and flight control surfaces. The Aftermarket Services operations also perform repair and overhaul services, and supply spare parts for various types of cockpit instruments and gauges for a broad range of commercial airlines on a worldwide basis.
We currently generate a majority of our revenue from clients in the commercial aerospace industry, the military, and the business jet industry. Our growth and financial results are largely dependent on continued demand for our products and services from clients in these industries. If any of these industries experiences a downturn, our clients in these sectors may conduct less business with us. The following table summarizes our net sales by end market by business segment. The loss of one or more of our major customers or an economic downturn in the commercial airline or the military and defense markets could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The increase in our percentage of net sales of commercial aerospace and business jets was attributable to the acquisition of Vought, while the regional jet end-market continues to decline in the current economy. We continue to experience an increase in the mix of the commercial aerospace end-market. We also continue to experience growth in the military end-market.

Aerospace Systems: The Aerospace Systems segment net sales increased by $86.9 million, or 33.4%, to $346.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $260.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to the additional sales associated with the acquisition of Vought and fiscal 2010 acquisitions of $83.5 million, in addition to organic sales growth of $3.4 million.
Aerospace Systems segment operating income increased by $12.6 million, or 30.0%, to $54.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $41.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Operating income increased due to contributions from the acquisition of Vought and the fiscal 2010 acquisitions ($8.7 million), as well as decreases in litigation ($2.0 million) and a favorable settlement of a retroactive pricing agreement, offset by costs related to the signing of a collective bargaining agreement.
Aerospace Systems segment operating income as a percentage of segment sales decreased to 15.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 as compared to 16.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, due to the lower margins contributed by the acquisition of Vought and the fiscal 2010 acquisitions, offset by the reduction in expenses discussed above.
Aftermarket Services: The Aftermarket Services segment net sales increased by $2.0 million, or 3.5%, to $59.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $57.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Aftermarket Services segment operating income increased by $1.7 million, or 70.1%, to $4.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $2.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Operating income increased primarily due to increased sales volume as described above, as well as an increase in gross margin of approximately 1% as a result of increased efficiencies in production associated with the higher volume of work and decreased salaries ($0.7 million) due to lower headcounts. In addition, the prior year period included $0.3 million in expenses incurred to shut down a service facility in Austin, Texas. The results of our Phoenix, Arizona APU operations were accretive to the segments results.
Aftermarket Services segment operating income as a percentage of segment sales increased to 6.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 as compared with 4.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, due to an increase in gross margin, as well as the continued improvements in production and operations at the Phoenix APU operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our working capital needs are generally funded through cash flows from operations and borrowings under our credit arrangements and leasing arrangements. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, we generated approximately $22.7 million of cash flows in operating activities, used approximately $350.0 million in investing activities and received approximately $206.3 million in financing activities.
Cash flows from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased $9.8 million, or 30.2% from the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our cash flows from operations decreased due to a decrease of $6.7 million in net income, which included $17.4 million in acquisition-related expenses for the acquisition of Vought. The decrease in cash flows was driven by an inventory cash usage of $11.7 million, and $12.4 million of interest paid at closing on assumed debt from the acquisition of Vought, offset by continued improvements in cash collection efforts resulting in a $17.8 million improvement as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009.
As of June 30, 2010, $403.1 million was available under our revolving credit facility (the Credit Facility). On June 30, 2010, an aggregate amount of approximately $85.0 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility, all of which was accruing interest at LIBOR plus applicable basis points totaling 3.35% per annum. Amounts repaid under the Credit Facility may be reborrowed.
At June 30, 2010, there was $120.0 million outstanding under our receivable securitization facility (the Securitization Facility). Interest rates on the Securitization Facility are based on prevailing market rates for short-term commercial paper, plus a program fee and a commitment fee.
In June 2010, the Company issued the 2018 Notes for $350.0 million in principal amount. The 2018 Notes were sold at 99.270% of principal amount for net proceeds of $347.5 million, and have an effective interest yield of 8.75%. Interest on the 2018 Notes is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on January 15 and May 15 of each year. We used the net proceeds as partial consideration of the acquisition of Vought. In connection with the issuance of the 2018 Notes, the Company incurred approximately $7.1 million of costs, which were deferred and are being amortized on the effective interest method over the term of the notes.
Also in June 2010, the Company entered into a six-year Term Loan for $350.0 million in principal amount. The proceeds of the loans under the Term Loan, which were 99.500% of the principal amount, were used to consummate the acquisition of Vought. Borrowings under the Term Loan bear interest, at the Companys option, at either the base rate (subject to a 2.50% floor), plus a margin between 1.750% and 2.000%, or at the Eurodollar Rate (subject to a 1.50% floor), plus a margin driven by net leverage between 2.750% and 3.000%. In connection with the closing on the Term Loan, the Company incurred approximately $7.5 million of costs, which were deferred and are being amortized into expense over the term of Term Loan.
In November 2009, the Company issued the 2017 Notes for $175.0 million in principal amount. The 2017 Notes were sold at 98.558% of principal amount for net proceeds of $172.5 million, and have an effective interest yield of 8.25%. Interest on the 2017 Notes is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year. We intend to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which includes debt reduction, including repayment of amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility, without any permanent reduction of the commitments thereunder. In connection with the issuance of the 2017 Notes, the Company incurred approximately $4.4 million of costs, which were deferred and are being amortized on the effective interest method over the term of the notes.
In March 2009, the Company entered into a 7-year Master Lease Agreement (the Leasing Facility) creating a capital lease of certain existing property and equipment, resulting in net proceeds of $58.5 million after deducting debt issuance costs of approximately $0.2 million. In June 2009, the Company added additional capital leases resulting in proceeds of $6.7 million. The net proceeds from the Leasing Facility were used to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the Companys Credit Facility. The debt issuance costs have been recorded as other assets in the consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the term of the Leasing Facility. The Leasing Facility bears interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 6.2% per annum.
On April 18, 2008, the Company entered into a financing agreement amendment with the City of Shelbyville, Indiana related to the City of Shelbyville, Indiana Economic Development Revenue Bonds, Series 2005 (the 2005 Bonds). The amendment divides the original $6.3 million bond, of which $5.8 million was drawn as of April 18, 2008, into two separate bonds, a floating rate bond and a fixed rate bond that replace the original bond in its entirety. Both bonds are due to mature on October 1, 2020. The floating rate bond, Series 2005A, is authorized to be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $0.5 million, and bears interest at a variable rate equal to approximately ninety percent of the three-month LIBOR rate (the effective rate was 2.00% at June 30, 2010). The proceeds of the Series 2005A Bonds of up to $0.5 million were used to fund the expansion of one of the Companys subsidiarys facility. The fixed rate bond, Series 2005B, is authorized to be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $5.8 million, and bears interest at a fixed rate equal to 4.45%.
On April 18, 2008, the Company entered into a loan agreement with the Montgomery County Industrial Development Authority related to the Economic Development Revenue Bond, Series 2008 (the 2008 Bonds). The proceeds of the 2008 Bonds of up to $5.0 million were used to fund improvements to property and equipment at one of the Companys subsidiaries. The 2008 Bonds are due to mature on April
18, 2023 and bear interest at a variable rate equal to approximately ninety percent of the three-month LIBOR rate (the effective rate was 2.50% at June 30, 2010). As of June 30, 2010, $2.1 million was drawn against the 2008 Bonds.
Capital expenditures were approximately $16.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, primarily for manufacturing machinery and equipment. We funded these expenditures through cash generated from operations. We expect capital expenditures of approximately $80.0 to $90.0 million for our fiscal year ending March 31, 2011. The expenditures are expected to be used mainly to expand capacity or replace old equipment at several facilities.
The expected future cash flows for the next five years for long term debt, leases and other obligations are as follows:

(1) Included in the Companys balance sheet at June 30, 2010, plus discounts on Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes, Term Loan, 2017 Notes and 2018 Notes of $7.9 million, $1.7 million, $2.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively, being amortized to expense through September 2011, July 2016, November 2017 and July 2018, respectively.
(2) Includes fixed-rate interest only.
(3) Includes unrecorded contingent payments in connection with the fiscal 2009 acquisitions.
The above table excludes unrecognized tax benefits of $6.7 million as of June 30, 2010 since we cannot predict with reasonable certainty the timing of cash settlements with the respective taxing authorities.
The table also excludes our pension benefit obligations. We made contributions to our defined benefit pension plans of $1.5 million and $0.3 million in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. As a result of the acquisition of Vought, we expect to make total pension and post-retirement plan contributions of $165.0 million to our defined benefit plans during fiscal 2011. The Company is required to make minimum contributions to its defined benefit pension plans under the minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Pension Funding Equity Act of 2004 and the Pension Protection Act of 2006. On June 25, 2010, the Preservation of Access to Care for Medical Beneficiaries and Pension Relief Act of 2010 (the Relief Act), was signed into law. The Relief Act provides for temporary, targeted funding relief (subject to certain terms and conditions) for single employer and multiemployer pension plans that suffered significant losses in asset value due to the steep market slide in 2008. The Relief Act could have a significant impact on plan contributions beyond fiscal 2011.
We believe that cash generated by operations and borrowings under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash requirements for our current operations for the foreseeable future. However, we have a stated policy to grow through acquisitions and are continuously evaluating various acquisition opportunities. As a result, we currently are pursuing the potential purchase of a number of candidates. In the event that more than one of these transactions are successfully consummated, the availability under the Credit Facility might be fully utilized and additional funding sources may be needed. There can be no assurance that such funding sources will be available to us on terms favorable to us, if at all.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Companys critical accounting policies are discussed in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements that appear in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, we did not make any material changes to our critical accounting policies subsequent to the filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 in the Companys critical accounting policies or in the assumptions or estimates used to prepare the financial information appearing in this report, except for the items that have become critical as a result of the acquisition of Vought as discussed below.
Revenue and Profit Recognition
Revenues are recognized in accordance with the contract terms when products are shipped, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, pricing is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
A significant portion of our contracts are within the scope of the Revenue - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts topic of the ASC and revenue and costs on contracts are recognized using percentage-of-completion methods of accounting. Accounting for the revenue and profit on a contract requires estimates of (1) the contract value or total contract revenue, (2) the total costs at completion, which is equal to the sum of the actual incurred costs to date on the contract and the estimated costs to complete the contracts scope of work and (3) the measurement of progress towards completion. Depending on the contract, we measure progress toward completion using either the cost-to-cost method or the units-of-delivery method.
· Under the cost-to-cost method, progress toward completion is measured as the ratio of total costs incurred to our estimate of total costs at completion. We recognize costs as incurred. Profit is determined based on our estimated profit margin on the contract multiplied by our progress toward completion. Revenue represents the sum of our costs and profit on the contract for the period.
· Under the units-of-delivery method, revenue on a contract is recorded as the units are delivered and accepted during the period at an amount equal to the contractual selling price of those units. The costs recorded on a contract under the units-of-delivery method are equal to the total costs at completion divided by the total units to be delivered. As our contracts can span multiple years, we often segment the contracts into production lots for the purposes of accumulating and allocating cost. Profit is recognized as the difference between revenue for the units delivered and the estimated costs for the units delivered.
Adjustments to original estimates for a contracts revenues, estimated costs at completion and estimated total profit are often required as work progresses under a contract, as experience is gained and as more information is obtained, even though the scope of work required under the contract may not change, or if contract modifications occur. These estimates are also sensitive to the assumed rate of production. Generally, the longer it takes to complete the contract quantity, the more relative overhead that contract will absorb. The impact of revisions in cost estimates is recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions are made. Provisions for anticipated losses on contracts are recorded in the period in which they become evident (forward losses) and are first offset against costs that are included in inventory, with any remaining amount reflected in accrued contract liabilities in accordance with the Revenue-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts topic. Revisions in contract estimates, if significant, can materially affect our results of operations and cash flows, as well as our valuation of inventory. Furthermore, certain contracts are combined or segmented for revenue recognition in accordance with the Revenue-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts topic.
Advance payments and progress payments received on contracts-in-process are first offset against related contract costs that are included in inventory, with any remaining amount reflected in current liabilities.
Amounts representing contract change orders or claims are only included in revenue when such change orders or claims have been settled with our customer and to the extent that units have been delivered. Additionally, some contracts may contain provisions for revenue sharing, price re-determination, requests for equitable adjustments, change orders or cost and/or performance incentives. Such amounts or incentives are included in contract value when the amounts can be reliably estimated and their realization is reasonably assured.
Although fixed-price contracts, which extend several years into the future, generally permit us to keep unexpected profits if costs are less than projected, we also bear the risk that increased or unexpected costs may reduce our profit or cause the Company to sustain losses on the contract. In a fixed-price contract, we must fully absorb cost overruns, not withstanding the difficulty of estimating all of the costs we will incur in performing these contracts and in projecting the ultimate level of revenue that may otherwise be achieved.
Our failure to anticipate technical problems, estimate delivery reductions, estimate costs accurately or control costs during performance of a fixed price contract may reduce the profitability of a fixed price contract or cause a loss. We believe we have recorded adequate provisions in the financial statements for losses on fixed-price contracts, but we cannot be certain that the contract loss provisions will be adequate to cover all actual future losses.
The Aftermarket Services Group providers repair and overhaul services, certain of which services are provided under long term power-by-the-hour contracts. The Company applies the proportional performance method to recognize revenue under these contracts. Revenue is recognized over the contract period as units are delivered based on the relative value in proportion to the total estimated contract consideration. In estimating the total contract consideration, management evaluates the projected utilization of its customers fleet over the term of the contract, in connection with the related estimated repair and overhaul servicing requirements to the fleet based on such utilization. Changes in utilization of the fleet by customers, among other factors, may have an impact on these estimates and require adjustments to estimates of revenue to be realized.
Post-retirement Plans
The liabilities and net periodic cost of our pension and other post-retirement plans are determined using methodologies that involve several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate, the expected long-term rate of asset return, the assumed average rate of compensation increase and rate of growth for medical costs. The actuarial assumptions used to calculate these costs are reviewed annually or when a remeasurement is necessary. Assumptions are based upon managements best estimates, after consulting with outside investment advisors and actuaries, as of the measurement date.
The assumed discount rate utilized is based on a point in time estimate as of our annual measurement date or as of remeasurement dates as needed. This rate is determined based upon on a review of yield rates associated with long-term, high quality corporate bonds as of the measurement date and use of models that discount projected benefit payments using the spot rates developed from the yields on selected long-term, high quality corporate bonds.
The assumed expected long-term rate of return on assets is the weighted average rate of earnings expected on the funds invested or to be invested to provide for the benefits included in the Projected Benefit Obligation (PBO). The expected average long-term rate of return on assets is based principally on the counsel of our outside investment advisors. This rate is based on actual historical returns and anticipated long-term performance of individual asset classes with consideration given to the related investment strategy. This rate is utilized principally in calculating the expected return on plan assets component of the annual pension
expense. To the extent the actual rate of return on assets realized over the course of a year differs from the assumed rate, that years annual pension expense is not affected. The gain or loss reduces or increases future pension expense over the average remaining service period of active plan participants expected to receive benefits.
The assumed average rate of compensation increase represents the average annual compensation increase expected over the remaining employment periods for the participating employees. This rate is utilized principally in calculating the PBO and annual pension expense.
In addition to our defined benefit pension plans, we provide certain healthcare and life insurance benefits for some retired employees. Such benefits are unfunded as of June 30, 2010. Employees achieve eligibility to participate in these contributory plans upon retirement from active service if they meet specified age and years of service requirements. Election to participate for eligible employees must be made at the date of retirement. Qualifying dependents at the date of retirement are also eligible for medical coverage. Current plan documents reserve our right to amend or terminate the plans at any time, subject to applicable collective bargaining requirements for represented employees. From time to time, we have made changes to the benefits provided to various groups of plan participants. Premiums charged to most retirees for medical coverage prior to age 65 are based on years of service and are adjusted annually for changes in the cost of the plans as determined by an independent actuary. In addition to this medical inflation cost-sharing feature, the plans also have provisions for deductibles, co-payments, coinsurance percentages, out-of-pocket limits, schedules of reasonable fees, preferred provider networks, coordination of benefits with other plans, and a Medicare carve-out.
In accordance with the Compensation Retirement Benefits topic of the ASC we recognized the funded status of our benefit obligation in our statement of financial position as of December 31, 2008. This funded status is remeasured as of our annual remeasurement date. The funded status is measured as the difference between the fair value of the plans assets and the PBO or accumulated postretirement benefit obligation of the plan. In order to recognize the funded status, we determined the fair value of the plan assets. The majority of our plan assets are publicly traded investments which were valued based on the market price as of the date of remeasurement. Investments that are not publicly traded were valued based on the estimated fair value of those investments as of the remeasurement date based on our evaluation of data from fund managers and comparable market data.
Forward Looking Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 relating to our future operations and prospects, including statements that are based on current projections and expectations about the markets in which we operate, and our beliefs concerning future performance and capital requirements based upon current available information. Such statements are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to us. When used in this document, words like may, might, will, expect, anticipate, believe, potential, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from our current expectations. For example, there can be no assurance that additional capital will not be required or that additional capital, if required, will be available on reasonable terms, if at all, at such times and in such amounts as may be needed by us. In addition to these factors, among other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are uncertainties relating to the integration of acquired businesses, general economic conditions affecting our business, dependence of certain of our businesses on certain key customers as well as competitive factors relating to the aviation industry. For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors affecting us, see the risk factors set forth in Part II. Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Our primary exposure to market risk consists of changes in interest rates on borrowings. An increase in interest rates would adversely affect our operating results and the cash flow available after debt service to fund operations and expansion. In addition, an increase in interest rates would adversely affect our ability to pay dividends on our common stock, if permitted to do so under certain of our debt arrangements, including the Credit Facility. We manage exposure to interest rate fluctuations by optimizing the use of fixed and variable rate debt. As of June 30, 2010, approximately 59% of our debt is fixed rate debt. Our financing policy states that we generally maintain between 50% and 75% of our debt as fixed rate debt. We anticipate that our fixed rate debt may continue remaining within this range during the remainder of fiscal 2011. The information below summarizes our market risks associated with debt obligations and should be read in conjunction with Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following table presents principal cash flows and the related interest rates. Fixed interest rates disclosed represent the weighted average rate as of June 30, 2010. Variable interest rates disclosed fluctuate with the LIBOR, federal funds rates and other weekly rates and represent the weighted average rate at June 30, 2010.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As of June 30, 2010, we completed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2010.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There were no changes that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
TRIUMPH GROUP, INC.
You should consider carefully the following risk factors. If any of the following uncertainties or risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. The risks described below are not the only ones that may affect us or our stockholders. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently view as immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. There are references in the risk factors below to pro forma financial results of the Company and Vought. Please note that the preliminary unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet of the Company and Vought as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, and the preliminary unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the notes thereto, have been filed as Exhibit 99.4 to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 22, 2010.
Factors that have an adverse impact on the aerospace industry may adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity.
A substantial percentage of our gross profit and operating income was derived from commercial aviation for fiscal year 2010. Our operations have been focused on designing, engineering, manufacturing, repairing and overhauling a broad portfolio of aerostructures, aircraft components, accessories, subassemblies and systems. Therefore, our business is directly affected by economic factors and other trends that affect our customers in the aerospace industry, including a possible decrease in outsourcing by OEMs and aircraft operators or projected market growth that may not materialize or be sustainable. We are also significantly dependent on sales to the commercial aerospace market, which has been cyclical in nature with significant downturns in the past. When these economic and other factors adversely affect the aerospace industry, they tend to reduce the overall customer demand for our products and services, which decreases our operating income. Economic and other factors that might affect the aerospace industry may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and liquidity. We have credit exposure to a number of commercial airlines, some of which have encountered financial difficulties. In addition, an increase in energy costs and the price of fuel to the airlines, similar to that which occurred in 2008, could result in additional pressure on the operating costs of airlines. The market for jet fuel is inherently volatile and is subject to, among other things, changes in government policy on jet fuel production, fluctuations in the global supply of crude oil and disruptions in oil production or delivery caused by sudden hostility in oil producing areas. Often airlines are unable to pass on increases in fuel prices to customers by increasing fares due to the competitive nature of the airline industry, and this compounds the pressure on operating costs. Other events of general impact such as terrorist attacks against the industry or pandemic health crises may lead to declines in the worldwide aerospace industry that could adversely affect our business and financial condition.
In addition, demand for our maintenance, repair and overhaul services is strongly correlated with worldwide flying activity. A significant portion of the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) activity required on commercial aircraft is mandated by government regulations that limit the total time or number of flights that may elapse between scheduled MRO events. As a result, although short-term deferrals are possible, MRO activity is ultimately required to continue to operate the aircraft in revenue-producing service. Therefore, over the intermediate and long term, trends in the MRO market are closely related to the size and utilization level of the worldwide aircraft fleet, as reflected by the number of available seat miles, commonly referred to as ASMs, and cargo miles flown. Consequently, conditions or events which contribute to declines in worldwide ASMs and cargo miles flown, such as those mentioned above, could negatively impact our MRO business.
Cancellations, reductions or delays in customer orders may adversely affect our results of operations.
Our overall operating results are affected by many factors, including the timing of orders from large customers and the timing of expenditures to manufacture parts and purchase inventory in anticipation of future sales of products and services. A large portion of our operating expenses are relatively fixed. Because several of our operating locations typically do not obtain long-term purchase orders or commitments from our
customers, they must anticipate the future volume of orders based upon the historic purchasing patterns of customers and upon our discussions with customers as to their anticipated future requirements. These historic patterns may be disrupted by many factors, including changing economic conditions, inventory adjustments, or work stoppages or labor disruptions at our customers. Cancellations, reductions or delays in orders by a customer or group of customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may fail to realize all of the expected benefits of the acquisition of Vought.
On June 16, 2010, we completed the acquisition of Vought. Vought was a company with revenues almost twice our revenues prior to the acquisition and approximately as many employees. The acquisition of Vought is by far the largest acquisition we have made. The success of the acquisition of Vought will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from combining the businesses of Triumph and Vought. However, to realize these anticipated benefits, we must successfully combine the businesses. If we are not able to achieve these objectives, or do not do so in a timely manner, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of Vought may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected.
In addition, it is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of each companys ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of Vought. Integration efforts between the two companies will also divert management attention and resources and could have an adverse effect on us during the transition period.
Our acquisition strategy exposes us to risks, including the risk that we may not be able to successfully integrate acquired businesses.
We have a consistent strategy to grow, in part, through the acquisition of additional businesses in the aerospace industry and are continuously evaluating various acquisition opportunities, including those outside the United States and those that may have a material impact on our business. Our ability to grow by acquisition is dependent upon, among other factors, the availability of suitable acquisition candidates. Growth by acquisition involves risks that could adversely affect our operating results, including difficulties in integrating the operations and personnel of acquired companies, the risk of diverting the attention of senior management from our existing operations, the potential amortization of acquired intangible assets, the potential impairment of goodwill and the potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. We may not be able to consummate acquisitions on satisfactory terms or, if any acquisitions are consummated, successfully integrate these acquired businesses.
A significant decline in business with a key customer could have a material adverse effect on us.
The Boeing Company, or Boeing Commercial, Military & Space, represented approximately 52% of our net sales on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the acquisition of Vought, and on a stand-alone basis, 30% of Triumphs net sales and 66% of Voughts net sales, in each case for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010, covering virtually every Boeing plant and product. As a result, a significant reduction in purchases by Boeing could have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. In addition, some of our other group companies rely significantly on particular customers, the loss of which could have an adverse effect on those businesses.
Demand for military and defense products is dependent upon government spending.
The military and defense market is largely dependent upon government budgets, particularly the U.S. defense budget, and even an increase in defense spending may not be allocated to programs that would benefit our business. Moreover, the new military aircraft programs in which we participate may not enter full-scale production as expected. A change in the levels of defense spending or levels of military flight operations could curtail or enhance our prospects in the military and defense market depending upon the programs affected.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, approximately 36% of our sales on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the acquisition of Vought and 37% of Triumph sales on a stand-alone basis were derived from
the military and defense market, which includes primarily indirect sales to the U.S. Government. Approximately 35% of Voughts revenue for fiscal year 2009 was derived from the military and defense market, which includes primarily indirect sales to the U.S. Government. As a result, our exposure to the military and defense market is significant.
We also face the risk that the C-17 program could be completed upon fulfillment of currently outstanding production orders. We currently have a contract with Boeing to support C-17 production through April 2011. The Presidents proposed 2010 budget does not include funding for the procurement of new C-17 aircraft, although Congress has proposed adding funding for additional aircraft. Boeing currently has confirmed orders with the U.S. Air Force and various foreign militaries to produce C-17 through 2012 at a rate of approximately 10 aircraft per year. In addition there are additional orders for 2013 that have been confirmed and Boeing has reported that there is strong interest from India for 10 aircraft as well as interest from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and Japan. These additional orders would allow production to be continued through 2014 at todays current rate. However, there can be no assurance that these additional orders will materialize. Our business could be adversely impacted if the U.S. Government does not fund additional C-17 aircraft or if additional orders from Foreign Militaries do not materialize and Boeing decides not to fund beyond their current commitment. As a result, the loss of the C-17 program and the failure to win additional work to replace the C-17 program could materially reduce our cash flow and results of operations.
Future volatility in the financial markets may impede our ability to successfully access capital markets and ensure adequate liquidity and may adversely affect our customers and suppliers.
Future turmoil in the capital markets may impede our ability to access the capital markets when we would like, or need, to raise capital or restrict our ability to borrow money on favorable terms. Such market conditions could have an adverse impact on our flexibility to react to changing economic and business conditions and on our ability to fund our operations and capital expenditures in the future. In addition, interest rate fluctuations, financial market volatility or credit market disruptions may also negatively affect our customers and our suppliers ability to obtain credit to finance their businesses on acceptable terms. As a result, our customers need for and ability to purchase our products or services may decrease, and our suppliers may increase their prices, reduce their output or change their terms of sale. If our customers or suppliers operating and financial performance deteriorates, or if they are unable to make scheduled payments or obtain credit, our customers may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable owed to us, and our suppliers may restrict credit or impose different payment terms. Any inability of customers to pay us for our products and services or any demands by suppliers for different payment terms may adversely affect our earnings and cash flow.
Our international sales and operations are subject to applicable laws relating to trade, export controls and foreign corrupt practices, the violation of which could adversely affect our operations.
We must comply with all applicable export control laws and regulations of the United States and other countries. United States laws and regulations applicable to us include the Arms Export Control Act, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and the trade sanctions laws and regulations administered by the United States Department of the Treasurys Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). EAR restricts the export of dual-use products and technical data to certain countries, while ITAR restricts the export of defense products, technical data and defense services. The U.S. Government agencies responsible for administering EAR and ITAR have significant discretion in the interpretation and enforcement of these regulations. We cannot provide services to certain countries subject to United States trade sanctions unless we first obtain the necessary authorizations from OFAC. In addition, we are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act which generally bars bribes or unreasonable gifts to foreign governments or officials.
Violations of these laws or regulations could result in significant additional sanctions, including fines, more onerous compliance requirements, more extensive debarments from export privileges, loss of authorizations needed to conduct aspects of our international business and criminal penalties and may harm our ability to enter into contracts with the U.S. government. A future violation of ITAR or the other regulations enumerated above could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our expansion into international markets may increase credit, currency and other risks, and our current operations in international markets expose us to such risks.
As we pursue customers in Asia, South America and other less developed aerospace markets throughout the world, our inability to ensure the creditworthiness of our customers in these areas could adversely impact our overall profitability. In addition, with operations in China, Germany, Mexico, Thailand and the United Kingdom, and customers throughout world, we will be subject to the legal, political, social and regulatory requirements and economic conditions of other jurisdictions. In the future, we may also make additional international capital investments, including further acquisitions of companies outside the United States or companies having operations outside the United States. Risks inherent to international operations include, but are not limited to, the following:
· difficulty in enforcing agreements in some legal systems outside the United States;
· imposition of additional withholding taxes or other taxes on our foreign income, tariffs or other restrictions on foreign trade and investment, including currency exchange controls;
· fluctuations in exchange rates which may affect demand for our products and services and may adversely affect our profitability in U.S. dollars;
· inability to obtain, maintain or enforce intellectual property rights;
· changes in general economic and political conditions in the countries in which we operate;
· unexpected adverse changes in the laws or regulatory requirements outside the United States, including those with respect to environmental protection, export duties and quotas;
· failure by our employees or agents to comply with U.S. laws affecting the activities of U.S. companies abroad;
· difficulty with staffing and managing widespread operations; and
· difficulty of and costs relating to compliance with the different commercial and legal requirements of the countries in which we operate.
We may need additional financing for acquisitions and capital expenditures and additional financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us.
A key element of our strategy has been, and continues to be, internal growth supplemented by growth through the acquisition of additional aerospace companies and product lines. In order to grow internally, we may need to make significant capital expenditures, such as investing in facilities in low cost countries, and may need additional capital to do so. Our ability to grow is dependent upon, and may be limited by, among other things, access to markets and conditions of markets, availability under the Credit Facility and Securitization Facility and by particular restrictions contained in the Credit Facility and our other financing arrangements. In that case, additional funding sources may be needed, and we may not be able to obtain the additional capital necessary to pursue our internal growth and acquisition strategy or, if we can obtain additional financing, the additional financing may not be on financial terms that are satisfactory to us.
Competitive pressures may adversely affect us.
We have numerous competitors in the aerospace industry. We compete primarily with the top-tier systems integrators and the manufacturers that supply them, some of which are divisions or subsidiaries of OEMs and other large companies that manufacture aircraft components and subassemblies. Our OEM competitors, which include Boeing, Airbus, Bell Helicopter, Cessna, Gulfstream, Honeywell, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, Rolls Royce and Sikorsky, may choose not to outsource production of aerostructures or other components due to, among other things, their own direct labor and overhead considerations, capacity utilization at their own facilities and desire to retain critical or core skills. Consequently, traditional factors affecting competition, such as price and quality of service, may not be significant determinants when OEMs decide whether to produce a part in-house or to outsource. We also
face competition from non-OEM component manufacturers, including Alenia Aeronautica, Fuji Heavy Industries, GKN Westland Aerospace (U.K.), Goodrich Corp., Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Spirit AeroSystems and Stork Aerospace. Competition for the repair and overhaul of aviation components comes from three primary sources: OEMs, major commercial airlines and other independent repair and overhaul companies.
We may need to expend significant capital to keep pace with technological developments in our industry.
The aerospace industry is constantly undergoing development and change and it is likely that new products, equipment and methods of repair and overhaul service will be introduced in the future. In order to keep pace with any new developments, we may need to expend significant capital to purchase new equipment and machines or to train our employees in the new methods of production and service.
The construction of aircraft is heavily regulated and failure to comply with applicable laws could reduce our sales or require us to incur additional costs to achieve compliance, and we may incur significant expenses to comply with new or more stringent governmental regulation.
The aerospace industry is highly regulated in the United States by the FAA and in other countries by similar agencies. We must be certified by the FAA and, in some cases, by individual OEMs in order to engineer and service parts, components and aerostructures used in specific aircraft models. If any of our material authorizations or approvals were revoked or suspended, our operations would be adversely affected. New or more stringent governmental regulations may be adopted, or industry oversight heightened in the future, and we may incur significant expenses to comply with any new regulations or any heightened industry oversight.
Some contractual arrangements with customers may cause us to bear significant up-front costs that we may not be able to recover.
Many new aircraft programs require that major suppliers bear the cost of design, development and engineering work associated with the development of the aircraft usually in exchange for a long-term agreement to supply critical parts once the aircraft is in production. If the aircraft fails to reach the full production stage or we fail to win the long-term contract, the outlays we have made in research and development and other start-up costs may not generate our anticipated return on investment.
We may not realize our anticipated return on capital commitments made to expand our capabilities.
We continually make significant capital expenditures to implement new processes and to increase both efficiency and capacity. Some of these projects require additional training for our employees and not all projects may be implemented as anticipated. If any of these projects do not achieve the anticipated increase in efficiency or capacity, our returns on these capital expenditures may be lower than expected.
Any product liability claims in excess of insurance may adversely affect our financial condition.
Our operations expose us to potential liability for personal injury or death as a result of the failure of an aircraft component that has been serviced by us or the failure of an aircraft component designed or manufactured by us. While we believe that our liability insurance is adequate to protect us from these liabilities, our insurance may not cover all liabilities. Additionally, as the number of insurance companies providing general aviation product liability insurance coverage has decreased in recent years, insurance coverage may not be available in the future at a cost acceptable to us. Any material liability not covered by insurance or for which third-party indemnification is not available could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
The lack of available skilled personnel may have an adverse effect on our operations.
From time to time, some of our operating locations have experienced difficulties in attracting and retaining skilled personnel to design, engineer, manufacture, repair and overhaul sophisticated aircraft components. Our ability to operate successfully could be jeopardized if we are unable to attract and retain a sufficient number of skilled personnel to conduct our business. Additionally, the service of key members of the Vought management team and other personnel are expected to be critical to ensure the smooth and timely integration of Voughts business into Triumph.
Any exposure to environmental liabilities may adversely affect us.
Our business, operations and facilities are subject to numerous stringent federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations, and we are subject to potentially significant fines or penalties, including criminal sanctions, if we fail to comply with these requirements. Pursuant to certain environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator of a contaminated site may be held liable for the entire cost of investigation, removal or remediation of hazardous materials at such property, whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of any hazardous materials. Although management believes that our operations and facilities are in material compliance with such laws and regulations, future changes in such laws, regulations or interpretations thereof or the nature of our operations or regulatory enforcement actions which may arise, may require us to make significant additional capital expenditures to ensure compliance in the future. Certain of our facilities, including facilities acquired and operated by us or one of our subsidiaries, have at one time or another been under active investigation for environmental contamination by federal or state agencies when acquired and, at least in some cases, continue to be under investigation or subject to remediation for potential or identified environmental contamination. Lawsuits, claims and costs involving environmental matters are likely to continue to arise in the future. Individual facilities of ours have also been subject to investigation on occasion for possible past waste disposal practices which might have contributed to contamination at or from remote third-party waste disposal sites. In some instances, we are indemnified by prior owners or operators and/or present owners of the facilities for liabilities which we incur as a result of these investigations and the environmental contamination found which pre-dates our acquisition of these facilities, subject to certain limitations, including but not limited to specified exclusions, deductibles and limitations on the survival period of the indemnity. We also maintain a pollution liability policy that provides coverage, subject to specified limitations, for specified material liabilities associated with the clean-up of certain on-site pollution conditions, as well as defense and indemnity for certain third-party suits (including Superfund liabilities at third-party sites), in each case, to the extent not otherwise indemnified. However, if we were required to pay the expenses related to environmental liabilities for which neither indemnification nor insurance coverage is available, these expenses could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
We are currently involved in intellectual property litigation, which could have a material and adverse impact on our profitability, and we could become so involved again in the future.
We and other companies in our industry possess certain proprietary rights relating to designs, engineering, manufacturing processes and repair and overhaul procedures. In the event that we believe that a third party is infringing upon our proprietary rights, we may bring an action to enforce such rights. In addition, third parties may claim infringement by us with respect to their proprietary rights and may initiate legal proceedings against us in the future. The expense and time of bringing an action to enforce such rights or defending against infringement claims can be significant, as in the case of the litigation arising out of the claims of Eaton Corporation discussed in Item 3. Legal Proceedings in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, filed with the SEC in May 2010. Intellectual property litigation involves complex legal and factual questions which makes the outcome of any such proceedings subject to considerable uncertainty. Not only can such litigation divert managements attention, but it can also expose the Company to damages and potential injunctive relief which, if granted, may preclude the Company from making, using or selling particular products or technology. The expense and time associated with such litigation may have a material and adverse impact on our profitability.
We do not own certain intellectual property and tooling that is important to our business.
In our overhaul and repair businesses, OEMs of equipment that we maintain for our customers increasingly include language in repair manuals relating to their equipment asserting broad claims of proprietary rights to the contents of the manuals used in our operations. Although we believe that our use of manufacture and repair manuals is lawful, there can be no assurance that OEMs will not try to enforce such claims, including through the possible use of legal proceedings, or that any such actions will be unsuccessful.
Our business also depends on using certain intellectual property and tooling that we have rights to use pursuant to license grants under our contracts with our OEM customers. These contracts contain restrictions on our use of the intellectual property and tooling and may be terminated if we violate certain of these restrictions. Our loss of a contract with an OEM customer and the related license rights to use an OEMs intellectual property or tooling would materially adversely affect our business.
Our fixed-price contracts may commit us to unfavorable terms.
For the year fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, a significant portion of our net sales on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the acquisition of Vought were derived from fixed-price contracts under which we have agreed to provide components or aerostructures for a price determined on the date we entered into the contract. Several factors may cause the costs we incur in fulfilling these contracts to vary substantially from our original estimates, and we bear the risk that increased or unexpected costs may reduce our profit or cause us to sustain losses on these contracts. In a fixed-price contract, we must fully absorb cost overruns, notwithstanding the difficulty of estimating all of the costs we will incur in performing these contracts. Because our ability to terminate contracts is generally limited, we may not be able to terminate our performance requirements under these contracts at all or without substantial liability and, therefore, in the event we are sustaining reduced profits or losses, we could continue to sustain these reduced profits or losses for the duration of the contract term. Our failure to anticipate technical problems, estimate delivery reductions, estimate costs accurately or control costs during performance of a fixed-price contract may reduce the profitability of a fixed-price contract or cause significant losses.
Any significant disruption from key suppliers of raw materials and key components could delay production and decrease revenue.
We are highly dependent on the availability of essential raw materials such as carbon fiber, aluminum and titanium, and purchased engineered component parts from our suppliers, many of which are available only from single customer-approved sources. Moreover, we are dependent upon the ability of our suppliers to provide raw materials and components that meet our specifications, quality standards and delivery schedules. Our suppliers failure to provide expected raw materials or component parts could require us to identify and enter into contracts with alternate suppliers that are acceptable to both us and our customers, which could result in significant delays, expenses, increased costs and management distraction and adversely affect production schedules and contract profitability.
We have from time to time experienced limited interruptions of supply, and we may experience a significant interruption in the future. Our continued supply of raw materials and component parts are subject to a number of risks including:
· availability of capital to our suppliers;
· the destruction of our suppliers facilities or their distribution infrastructure;
· a work stoppage or strike by our suppliers employees;
· the failure of our suppliers to provide raw materials or component parts of the requisite quality;
· the failure of essential equipment at our suppliers plants;
· the failure or shortage of supply of raw materials to our suppliers;
· contractual amendments and disputes with our suppliers; and
· geopolitical conditions in the global supply base.
In addition, some contracts with our suppliers for raw materials, component parts and other goods are short-term contracts, which are subject to termination on a relatively short-term basis. The prices of our raw materials and component parts fluctuate depending on market conditions, and substantial increases in prices could increase our operating costs, which, as a result of our fixed price contracts, we may not be able to recoup through increases in the prices of our products.
Due to economic difficulty, we may face pressure to renegotiate agreements resulting in lower margins. Our suppliers may discontinue provision of products to us at attractive prices or at all, and we may not be able to obtain such products in the future from these or other providers on the scale and within the time periods we require. Furthermore, substitute raw materials or component parts may not meet the strict
specifications and quality standards we and our customers demand, or that the U.S. Government requires. If we are not able to obtain key products on a timely basis and at an affordable cost, or we experience significant delays or interruptions of their supply, revenues from sales of products that use these supplies will decrease.
Our operations depend on our manufacturing facilities, which are subject to physical and other risks that could disrupt production.
Our manufacturing facilities could be damaged or disrupted by a natural disaster, war, or terrorist activity. We maintain property damage and business interruption insurance at the levels typical in our industry, however, a major catastrophe, such as an earthquake, hurricane, flood, tornado or other natural disaster at any of our sites, or war or terrorist activities in any of the areas where we conduct operations could result in a prolonged interruption of our business. Any disruption resulting from these events could cause significant delays in shipments of products and the loss of sales and customers and we may not have insurance to adequately compensate us for any of these events.
Significant consolidation by aerospace industry suppliers could adversely affect our business.
The aerospace industry has recently experienced consolidation among suppliers. Suppliers have consolidated and formed alliances to broaden their product and integrated system offerings and achieve critical mass. This supplier consolidation is in part attributable to aircraft manufacturers more frequently awarding long-term sole-source or preferred supplier contracts to the most capable suppliers, thus reducing the total number of suppliers. This consolidation could cause us to compete against certain competitors with greater financial resources, market penetration and purchasing power. When we purchase component parts and services from suppliers to manufacture our products, consolidation reduces price competition between our suppliers, which could diminish incentives for our suppliers to reduce prices. If this consolidation continues, our operating costs could increase and it may become more difficult for us to be successful in obtaining new customers.
Due to the size and long-term nature of many of our contracts, we are required by GAAP to estimate sales and expenses relating to these contracts in our financial statements, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those estimated under different assumptions or conditions.
Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These principles require our management to make estimates and assumptions regarding our contracts that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Contract accounting requires judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract sales and costs, and making assumptions for schedule and technical issues. Due to the size and nature of many of our contracts, the estimation of total sales and cost at completion is complicated and subject to many variables. While we base our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time made, actual results may differ materially from those estimated.
We may be subject to work stoppages at our facilities or those of our principal customers and suppliers, which could seriously impact the profitability of our business.
At March 31, 2010, we employed 12,508 people on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the acquisition of Vought, of which 26.7% belonged to unions. Our unionized workforces and those of our customers and suppliers may experience work stoppages. For example, the International Association of Machinists-represented employees at Voughts Nashville, Tennessee, plant engaged in a strike that continued for approximately 16 weeks during 2008 and 2009. A contingency plan was implemented that allowed production to continue in Nashville during the course of that strike. Additionally, our union contract with Local 848 of UAW with employees at our Dallas and Grand Prairie, Texas, facilities expires on October 3, 2010. If we are unable to negotiate a new contract with that workforce, our operations may be disrupted and we may be prevented from completing production and delivery of products from those facilities, which would negatively impact our results of operations.
Many aircraft manufacturers, airlines and aerospace suppliers have unionized workforces. Strikes, work stoppages or slowdowns experienced by aircraft manufacturers, airlines or aerospace suppliers, such as the recent strike at Boeings C-17 facilities, could reduce our customers demand for our products or prevent
us from completing production. In turn, this may have a material adverse affect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Financial market conditions may adversely affect the benefit plan assets we have inherited from Vought, increase funding requirements and materially impact our statement of financial position.
The benefit plan assets we have inherited as a result of the acquisition of Vought are invested in a diversified portfolio of investments in both the equity and debt categories, as well as limited investments in real estate and other alternative investments. The current market values of all of these investments, as well as the related benefit plan liabilities are impacted by the movements and volatility in the financial markets. In accordance with the Compensation - Retirement Benefits topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), we have recognized the over-funded or under-funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its balance sheet, and will recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur. The funded status is measured as the difference between the fair value of the plans assets and the projected benefit obligation. A decrease in the fair value of these plan assets or an increase in interest rates resulting from movements in the financial markets will increase the under-funded status of the plans recorded in our statement of financial position and result in additional cash funding requirements to meet the minimum required funding levels.
The U.S. Government is a significant customer of our largest customers, and we and they are subject to specific U.S. Government contracting rules and regulations.
As a result of the acquisition of Vought, we have become a more significant provider of aerostructures to military aircraft manufacturers. The military aircraft manufacturers business, and by extension, our business, is affected by the U.S. Governments continued commitment to programs under contract with our customers. The terms of defense contracts with the U.S. Government generally permit the government to terminate contracts partially or completely, either for its convenience or if we default by failing to perform under the contract. Termination for convenience provisions provide only for our recovery of unrecovered costs incurred or committed, settlement expenses and profit on the work completed prior to termination. Termination for default provisions provide for the contractor to be liable for excess costs incurred by the U.S. Government in procuring undelivered items from another source. On contracts where the price is based on cost, the U.S. Government may review our costs and performance, as well as our accounting and general business practices. Based on the results of such audits, the U.S. Government may adjust our contract-related costs and fees, including allocated indirect costs. In addition, under U.S. Government purchasing regulations, some of our costs, including most financing costs, portions of research and development costs, and certain marketing expenses may not be subject to reimbursement.
We bear the potential risk that the U.S. Government may unilaterally suspend our customers or us from new contracts pending the resolution of alleged violations of procurement laws or regulations. Sales to the U.S. Government are also subject to changes in the governments procurement policies in advance of design completion. An unexpected termination of, or suspension from, a significant government contract, a reduction in expenditures by the U.S. Government for aircraft using our products, lower margins resulting from increasingly competitive procurement policies, a reduction in the volume of contracts awarded to us, or substantial cost overruns could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We are subject to the requirements of the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual for facility security clearance, which is a prerequisite for our ability to perform on classified contracts for the U.S. Government.
A Department of Defense, or DoD, facility security clearance is required in order to be awarded and perform on classified contracts for the DoD and certain other agencies of the U.S. Government, which is a significant part of our business. We have obtained clearance at appropriate levels that require stringent qualifications, and it may be required to seek higher level clearances in the future. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our security clearance. If for some reason our security clearance is invalidated or terminated, we may not be able to continue to perform our present classified contracts or be able to enter into new classified contracts, which could affect our ability to compete for and capture new business.
We may be unable to effectively implement the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system at Vought.
In 2009, Vought began the planning and design phase of an ERP system which is scheduled for completion in 2011. If this implementation is not managed effectively it may delay our ability to obtain accurate financial information with respect to the Vought business or obtain the information necessary to effectively manage the Vought business, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and our ability to fulfill our obligations.
After completing the acquisition of Vought, we have a substantial amount of indebtedness. Our indebtedness could have important consequences, including:
· making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations;
· increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
· requiring that a portion of our cash flow from operations be used for the payment of interest on our debt, thereby reducing our ability to use our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate requirements;
· limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate requirements;
· limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the aerospace and defense industry; and
· placing us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors that have less indebtedness.
We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur additional indebtedness in the future. Our existing debt agreements do not fully prohibit us or our subsidiaries from doing so. If new indebtedness is added to our and our subsidiaries current indebtedness levels, the related risks that we and they now face could intensify.
If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow or otherwise obtain funds necessary to make required payments on our indebtedness, we would be in default. Our ability to meet our obligations will depend upon our future performance, which will be subject to prevailing economic conditions, and to financial, business and other factors, including factors beyond our control.
