Further review of the contracts in question and related contracts through April 1995 indicates the Company was not compliant with Public Law 87-653, Truth in Negotiations Act, which requires disclosure of all actual costs available on the date of cost certification on certain contracts performed during the 1989 and 1990 timeframe. These findings have resulted in a voluntary disclosure to the government which is expected to result in a downward price adjustment on certain contracts. In June 1995, the Company announced it was taking a charge against the fiscal 1995 third quarter operating results in anticipation of a settlement with the government on the subject contracts. The charge resulted in a reduction of the fiscal 1995 third quarter's operating income of $1.2 million. While management believes this charge is adequate to cover all related risks, the government has not concluded its investigation or agreed to a settlement with the Company. There can be no assurances the Company will not be required to take additional charges in connection with this matter in future periods. However, management believes that any such charges would not have a material effect on the operating results and financial condition of the Company.
