Item 1. Business

Company Overview

Firearms Training Systems, Inc. (referred to in this Report as “FATS”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) incorporated as a Delaware corporation in 1984. We believe FATS^® continues to be a leader in terms of our products and the number of markets we serve, having developed over 300 variations of simulated weapons, manufactured and delivered over 60,000 simulated weapons, developed over 1,200 training scenarios, and delivered over 5,200 systems to more than 50 countries. Our virtual training solutions are designed to provide state-of-the-art training for military, law enforcement, and security personnel in:

•

direct and indirect fire,

•

tactical decision-making,

•

close air support,

•

judgmental use of lethal and non-lethal force,

•

marksmanship,

•

convoy training,

•

vehicle mounted gunnery utilizing motion platform systems,

•

crew gunnery, and

•

integrated solutions.

Keeping pace with national and international concerns, FATS has developed virtual training solutions, which train units and individuals in situational awareness for highly complex operations, including urban warfare, peacekeeping/making, crowd control and hostage negotiations. Additional emphasis has been placed on night operations in many environments which, in most cases, allow our customers to utilize their organic night vision equipment.

FATS’ software and hardware technologies have evolved along with advances in the computer industry. Recognizing that commercial technological capabilities are moving faster than any one company can replicate, the Company takes advantage of commercially available off-the-shelf components that allow reuse and upgrade capability as well as commonality and the ability to integrate with other simulation systems. This philosophy allows FATS to provide its customers with what we believe are the best technical and economical solutions for their training. FATS also works specifically with each customer so that each training solution provided is complete, integrated and functional, from the embedded technology and courseware to the unique language requirements of each customer. This results in a simulated firearm or weapons system that is integrated and compatible with each customer’s specific training programs, replicating precise weapon ballistic data, desired environmental effects, and realistic battle damage assessment.

FATS uses what we believe is a unique approach to sales and marketing utilizing subject matter experts (“SMEs”). SMEs are ex-military and/or law enforcement professional trainers and weapons specialists with expertise in developing weapons training systems requirements and customizing hardware, software, and weapon designs to meet specific customer training requirements. SMEs establish an interactive dialogue with decision-makers and system end-users who generally have comparable backgrounds and experiences, enabling the SMEs to more effectively communicate customer requirements to the Company’s design engineers. Through this interaction, the Company is better able to provide its customers with customized training scenarios that are realistic, using simulated weapons that maintain the fit, form, and function of live weapons. The average tenure of FATS’ team of SMEs is over nine years.

Our facility in Atlanta serves as the operational base for a wide array of products servicing markets throughout the world. Complementing our vertically integrated manufacturing operations in Atlanta are engineering resources located in Atlanta and Montreal, which are supported by sales and service operations in the United States, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Australia, Singapore, United Arab Emirates, and Canada. By

consolidating key functional groups in Atlanta such as Marketing and Sales, Customer Support, Business Development, Program Management, Contracts, Finance, and Supply Management, the Company can more readily execute a “one FATS” approach worldwide.

Many of FATS’ major military customers have formed an International Use Group (IUG) with a view of sharing development costs, training ideas, training scenarios and terrain databases. Members of the IUG include the United States Marine Corps, United Kingdom Ministry of Defense, Australian Defense Forces, Canadian Department of National Defense, New Zealand Army and Belgium Army. The IUG meets twice a year and FATS uses this forum to seek input for research and development.

Industry Overview

The virtual simulations training market is comprised of hardware, software, and courseware that are used by military, law enforcement and security professionals worldwide. The products are used to hone a variety of skills, including individual marksmanship, tactical engagement, indirect fire, combined arms, and judgmental decision-making for lethal and non-lethal use of force.

We believe recent world events and the continuing war on terrorism have increased the dependence on, and the demand for, simulations training. Operational tempo, time, and increasing environmental issues are key drivers that make simulations training extremely attractive. Additionally, there are training events that are almost cost prohibitive if restricted to live solutions. An example is close air support where the cost of a live aircraft sortie with ordnance is in the tens of thousands of dollars. Simulation training solutions, such as the FATS Indirect Fire-Forward Air Control Trainer (I-FACT), provide robust and meaningful training, which is transferable to the live environment and provides substantial savings in both time and money.

Over the last decade, military and law enforcement organizations have increasingly embraced firearms and virtual simulation training as an important supplement to live fire training. We believe the following factors favor the use of simulated firearms training systems:

•

United States Military Acceptance: The United States Marine Corps, the United States Army, the United States Navy and the United States Air Force all utilize FATS systems as a prerequisite to live fire training. The Army, Air Force and Navy have conducted controlled tests which indicate that soldiers are able to transfer the techniques learned from training in the virtual simulation environment immediately to live fire events. As time, expense, and environmental challenges continue to impact training, the Company expects reliance by these military forces on simulation training to increase.

•

Judgmental Training: Homeland security assignments and the rising number of non-traditional law enforcement and military missions, such as joint-force peacekeeping, peacemaking actions, and urban warfare situations require a heightened level of judgment regarding the appropriate use of measured force. Training in simulation enables law enforcement and military organizations to test and hone judgment and demonstrate appropriate responses to simulated complex situations with the ability to provide after-action review.

FATS focuses on the application of affordable technology to individual and small unit training and judgmental/use of force requirements. During the last few years, rapid advancements in commercial computer technology have allowed FATS to develop low cost simulators that support contemporary combat training objectives. FATS’ simulators use highly interactive three-dimensional computer-generated imagery that allows simulated battles to take place in high-fidelity virtual environments with computer-generated semi-automated forces.

Products

FATS’ product offering represents a comprehensive set of training systems, weapons, and courseware. Technology advancements have enabled FATS to build on the basic fundamentals of marksmanship training. FATS’ technology, experience, and expertise enable military leaders to progress from basic weapons skills to

directing entire units in virtual battle scenarios while a forward observer calls for and adjusts artillery, naval, mortar fire, and close-air support. The combination of the ability to conduct tactical planning on digitized terrain databases that represent real world mission locations, and the technically advanced features embedded in FATS’ training systems, result in the opportunity for military organizations to conduct meaningful simulation training that leads to advanced readiness.

The Company’s technology strategy is based on creating training platforms designed around a combination of off-the-shelf and proprietary technologies that customers can easily customize to meet their distinctive specifications and requirements. Faster processors and smaller computer parts and chips are enabling FATS to create training devices that eliminate the current requirement that weapons be tethered to the training system, affording personnel freedom of movement in the training space while retaining all current data feedback and system training features.

The following table illustrates the progression of the Company’s training platforms from its FATS I system developed in 1984 to the current digital system:

Evolution of FATS^® Training Platforms


Platform	Year of Introduction	Features/Improvements
FATS I	1985	Control Program for Microcomputers based, stand-alone weapons, judgmental laser disc video.

FATS II	1988	Versa Module Eurocard based, system controlled weapons, video branching.

FATS III	1992	Weapons trace function, lanes marksmanship, dry fire weapons, primer fire weapons, judgmental laser disc video, 2D full screen graphics, high resolution hit detection.

FATS IV	1998	PC based digital video, three-dimensional sound and graphics, indirect fire trainer, higher hit detection accuracy, open architecture.

Digital	Periodic Enhancements	HDTV video, through-sight display, higher firing rate, scalable system architecture.

The following sections detail the Company’s product offering, which is divided into four major groups: simulators, weaponry, training software, and related products. The product offering detail is followed by a discussion of additional products and service opportunities we are pursuing.

Simulators

The Company’s simulators represent the core of FATS’ product set. Simulators are integrated training devices that combine commercial off-the-shelf components and the latest technologies available such as a Windows XP^® operating system, 3D graphics, digital video encoding and decoding technologies, and LCD projectors. FATS’ proprietary technologies such as the hit detection system, software and training courses create a versatile training solution. A significant component is the embedded “after-action-review” capability allowing a thorough examination of key actions/tasks of each trainee.

The following list identifies the system capabilities and training available in a FATS platform:

•

Direct Fire/Crew Gunnery- enables customers to hone skills ranging from individual marksmanship to collective training incorporating weapons ranging from pistols to anti-tank missiles. Focus is on individual, team, and leadership training for basic through advanced marksmanship, as well as tactical/combined arms. FATS also provides light armor vehicle and gunnery crew training systems.

•

Indirect Fire/Combined Arms- designed to train call-for-fire procedures for artillery, mortars, naval gunfire, close air support, and attack helicopter. This training may be accomplished independent of, or concurrently with, a virtual combined arms training event incorporating direct fire engagements against simulated forces. In addition, indirect fire and combined arms simulations provide capabilities for command post and fire direction center personnel to become full participants in an indirect fire scenario.

•

Live Fire- enables an organization to employ its own service weapons in a wide variety of scenarios offering a complete spectrum of potential force responses. The system displays the impact point of live rounds on a specially designed, self-healing screen, and is capable of branching to different outcomes depending upon the student’s actions, reactions, and effectiveness.

•

Judgmental/Law Enforcement- provides training for the individual patrolman, team and/or section, and SWAT teams through the entire law enforcement continuum. Weapons include small arms, semi-automatic weapons, shotguns, and less than lethal alternatives such as chemical spray, the simulated TASER^® stun gun, and batons. Law enforcement training courses span the spectrum of conflicts that an officer may encounter, from basic marksmanship to hostage negotiations and rescue and domestic disturbances, in each case requiring judgment and measured response. Systems include complete diagnostics and data feedback.

Weaponry

FATS produces sophisticated and realistic simulated training weapons. We are able to provide realistic weaponry by retrofitting real, live fire weapons with simulation technology to deliver the true form, fit, and function of a live fire weapon. FATS offers a broad set of weapons, from small to supporting arms.

FATS’ simulated weapons offer a number of training advantages. Our weapons provide diagnostic information not available with live fire weapons such as trigger squeeze, barrel movement, weapon cant and butt pressure, supplying instructors with a comprehensive set of performance data. In addition, since FATS’ simulated weapons do not fire live rounds, they experience far less stress than live fire weapons and therefore have a life cycle that is significantly longer than weapons used for live fire training. For example, we believe an actual M-16 has a field life of approximately 5,000 rounds before rebuild is necessary, while the FATS simulated M-16 is designed to fire a minimum of 50,000 rounds before requiring service.

FATS’ weapons designers are able to replace firing elements from live weapons with pneumatics, electronics, lasers, and sensors without altering a weapon’s mechanical functions such as safety switch and loading, center of gravity, balance or weight.

Our weapons are available with various levels of sensor diagnostics and can be custom-designed and manufactured for each customer’s specific installation. During fiscal 2005, the Company began delivery of un-tethered, wireless weapons using Bluetooth radio frequency technology. FATS’ BLUEFIRE^® weapons and devices provide the end user with all of the diagnostics and capabilities present in FATS’ tethered weapons, but without the hard wire connection to the system.

Our weapons arsenal currently includes: simulated revolvers; semi-automatic pistols; shotguns; bolt-action, semi-automatic and automatic rifles; submachine and machine guns; anti-tank/anti-personnel rocket launchers; single-shot and automatic grenade launchers; automatic cannons; and mortars.

Training Software

The Company’s training software provides interactive engagements to meet specific training objectives using real-world imagery or computer generated imagery. FATS’ scenario library includes: terrain scenes derived from data sets of the National Imagery and Mapping Agency; realistic targets (both friendly and threatening); realistic human images; and various time of day, weather, and lighting conditions.

FATS has developed over 1,200 customized scenario programs. The Company offers a comprehensive set of scenarios covering basic and advanced marksmanship, judgmental/measured response, collective and combined arms training, and numerous other training requirements.

FATS has also become an industry leader in interoperability with similar and dissimilar training systems. Projects with the U.S. Department of Defense have demonstrated our ability to integrate via high-level architecture, with multiple systems and live training. We believe this capability makes FATS technically ahead of its competition and has brought the Company new opportunities that will provide growth in both its market and product offerings.

Related Products and Services

FATS offers additional products that enhance its basic platform capability including: a video authoring station, enabling customers to develop, edit, modify, and/or customize their own training video scenarios; and a hostile fire simulator that propels simulated ammunition in the direction of a trainee and designed to reinforce proper cover techniques. We also offer selected military and law enforcement equipment such as: a remote trigger device; lookback device; flashlight; night vision filters for customer-owned devices; simulated binoculars for use during indirect fire training; simulated laser range finders used during forward air controller training; and a MILES^™ shoot-back device that trains military personnel to react to hostile fire simulated by an electronic laser.

FATS is currently conducting turnkey training services for the Australian Defense Force, UAE Land Forces, and Singapore Police Coast Guard. Management continues to explore opportunities to provide turnkey training services to military and law enforcement organizations worldwide. We believe expanding the Company’s turnkey training services will provide a recurring revenue stream for FATS.

In addition, management continues to explore opportunities to deliver operator refresher training and advanced system operator training. FATS continues to deliver five-day operator and instructor courses, both in-house and at customer locations.

Target Markets

FATS targets two markets globally: military and law enforcement/security. The Company has sold FATS systems to customers in more than 50 countries across six continents. The following table sets forth dollar amounts (in thousands) and percentages of sales for the Company’s international and domestic markets on a historic basis:


	Year Ended March 31, 2004				Year Ended March 31, 2005				Year Ended March 31, 2006
International	$	37,753	51.6	%	$	39,829	45.1	%	$	30,923	39.3	%
Domestic Military		27,385	37.5			43,659	49.4			43,171	55.0
Domestic Law Enforcement		7,951	10.9			4,878	5.5			4,476	5.7

Total	$	73,089	100.0	%	$	88,366	100.0	%	$	78,570	100.0	%

Domestic Military and International

While training requirements vary among countries, the structural basis most often used is one similar to U.S. military doctrine and procedure. Major differences typically involve the weaponry used and marksmanship training standards. FATS has secured exclusive agreements with strategic sales agents to provide a local presence in those markets in which such a presence is essential to the Company’s success. These agents assist in defining customer requirements and providing clarification to product deliveries and solicitations.

FATS expects major growth potential in the Asia Pacific region and in Eastern Europe, and we are aggressively cultivating opportunities in both regions.

We believe that the U.S. military, which sets the standards for training in a simulations environment, continues to provide FATS with long-term opportunities. U.S. military customers recognize simulation training as a viable teaching method and means of preparation for live fire training. Simulation training provides inherent advantages in terms of cost, flexibility, diagnostics, safety, and diminished environmental impact which are recognized attributes by military organizations both in the United States and abroad.

The two principal methods used by U.S. military organizations to procure training equipment are purchasing programs defined in the U.S. Government’s budget and discretionary spending. We believe the Company has a compelling track record of success on both large-scale competitive procurements and discretionary purchases.

Reliance on virtual simulations in the U.S. is expected to expand, and we believe that, as the U.S. military adopts new features and capitalizes on the newest technology, other countries will similarly follow suit.

Domestic Law Enforcement

FATS divides its domestic law enforcement segment into four principal categories:

•

Federal entities, including the Secret Service, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Postal Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Agency, and the Central Intelligence Agency.

•

State and local law enforcement departments.

•

Colleges and universities offering criminal justice training programs.

•

Federal, state, and private correctional facilities.

Law enforcement agencies use simulation training primarily for judgmental applications that address force escalation and de-escalation decision-making in high stress situations. Domestic law enforcement agencies have been early adopters of simulation training, given the need for a more realistic means to teach these critical skills.

Federal agencies within the domestic law enforcement segment use procurement processes that generally follow the centralized structures of domestic military organizations. The other three sub-segments of the domestic law enforcement market (state and local law enforcement, colleges and universities, and correctional facilities) represent a diverse collection of independent organizations, each using discrete procurement systems and presenting unique training demands.

Homeland Security

Homeland security is still viewed by FATS to be a near-term growth opportunity. As the organizational structure of this department continues to solidify, we recognize training requirements beginning to emerge. We believe FATS is positioned to capitalize on this market opportunity.

Sales and Marketing

FATS’ longstanding history in simulation training is a primary key to our success to date within the global marketplace. Our field sales representatives, the FATS engineering staff, a core staff of SMEs, customer support technicians, marketing operations and program management personnel work as a team to respond to customer requirements, design the best approach and deliver what we believe is the best virtual training solution available for the customer. This team is charged with maintaining a continuous customer dialogue to uncover potential sales leads and to ensure customer satisfaction. FATS’ field sales representatives visit potential customer locations to maintain close, on-the-ground contact with end-users and decision-makers.

Management believes that the Company’s sales agents’ experience in the simulation industry, their weapons and product expertise and longstanding relationships with key military and law enforcement decision-makers in their respective territories will enable FATS to maintain and expand its market position.

Customers

Our customer base represents a global footprint of significant proportion. With over 5,200 fielded platforms and over 60,000 simulated weapons, FATS customers are found throughout the world. The following table provides a partial presentation of FATS’ customers:

Research and Development

Our research and development expenditures totaled approximately $7.2 million, $8.2 million and $9.3 million in fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Of these amounts, approximately $4.3 million, $4.2 million and $4.8 million was funded as engineering under customer specific contracts, resulting in net research and development expenses to FATS of $2.9 million, $4.0 million and $4.5 million in fiscal 2005 and 2006, respectively.

We believe FATS has a proven track record of developing new technologies to create more realistic and effective simulated training environments. In addition, FATS makes a substantial investment in the continuous improvement of its existing systems and products which drive upgrades. Weapons expertise and customer understanding provided by SMEs are key components in the Company’s research and development efforts. Our SMEs work with engineers to develop technology applications based on specific customer desires and needs.

In order to maintain our market position, FATS is currently engaging in research and development in the following areas:

•

Improving visual quality for both 3D graphic and digital video.

•

Developing simulation software that supports more realistic training scenarios.

•

Expanding FATS’ technology to support the new training needs for operations in urban terrain.

•

Enhancing radio frequency wireless weapons utilizing Bluetooth technology.

The Company’s research and development efforts are divided into four separate disciplines: mechanical, electrical, training, and audio-visual.

•

Mechanical Research and Development: Mechanical research and development consists of the design and development of specialized assemblies and simulated weaponry. By combining mechanical engineering with specialized sensing mechanisms and weapons technology, FATS is able to produce a customized simulated weapon.

•

Electrical Research and Development: Electrical research and development combines hardware and software engineering with electro-optical technologies to produce the system platform and application programs. FATS’ electrical research and development capabilities include real-time system software and hardware design and development, system integration, laser optics, ballistic modeling and calculation, interactive digital video, interactive 3D computer graphics, networking of simulation systems using high-level architecture, 3D target and terrain modeling, and motion simulation.

•

Training Research and Development: Training research and development focuses on the interpretation and translation of customer training requirements into quantifiable objectives and the development of simulation programs to meet those objectives. Experienced weapon training and shooting specialists with extensive military or law enforcement related experience comprises FATS’ professional training department.

•

Audio-Visual Research and Development: Audio-visual research and development focuses on the production of specialized audio-visual programs and a range of media support activities, from full production of training programs to customer assistance in user-produced programs that create realistic scenarios.

Supplementing the technical capabilities of the Company is a cadre of strategic relationships with what we believe to be the “best of breed” suppliers. We believe this combination of internal and external capabilities solidifies leading edge technology for FATS.

Manufacturing Operations

FATS’ manufacturing operations are conducted primarily at our Atlanta facility and, to a limited extent, at our foreign subsidiaries’ facilities. Manufacturing operations are divided into two groups: systems manufacturing and weapons manufacturing.

Systems Manufacturing

Systems manufacturing, which is the assembly of FATS hardware and software components into a single platform, is performed at our Atlanta facility. A select few suppliers or systems integrators support this process. The receipt of sub-assemblies and components is accomplished through a just-in-time delivery process. We have communicated defined quality requirements to our suppliers and our suppliers go through a comprehensive quality control inspection process before the components leave their facilities.

Due to our internal efficiencies and external capabilities, we believe FATS’ production capacity is adequate to support future growth.

Weapons Manufacturing

The production of FATS’ weapon simulators is also performed in our Atlanta facility. The process of “de-milling” live weapons into a simulated training product is accomplished through a combination of various sub-assemblies complemented by the machining of critical parts. The manufacturing process of the FATS simulator is considered a “core competency” thus requiring a focused vertically integrated effort. Employees assigned to these work cells are highly trained and considered to be experts not only in the field of weaponry but also mechanical assembly processes.

Operational Improvements

The standard operating procedure for manufacturing FATS products is the utilization of “lean manufacturing” techniques. By implementing state of the art processes, FATS has moved from traditional “batch” production (where inventory is manufactured in anticipation of an order) to a more efficient “pull” process (where inventory is manufactured only as an order is taken). Work cells have been established in both systems set-up and the weapons assembly areas. We believe the use of common tools and processes combined with a cross trained workforce has not only increased efficiencies, but elevated our quality standards. Our commitment to continually improving our processes has enhanced the effectiveness of our manufacturing group resulting in reduced time to market deliveries. On average, product cycle times have been reduced from 30 to 50 percent from mid-2002 to the present.

Quality control involves a built-in-process monitored by key performance metrics and a cross-functional internal quality committee. Performance results are visible on a real time basis making corrective action a part of daily routines. This “closed loop” system of documenting problems which lead to engineering change notices and corrective action plans, serves to reinforce continuous improvement.

Numerous adjustments have also been made in supply chain management with improvements in both supplier on time delivery and received quality. These improvements have resulted in several strategic supply agreements, which also address ongoing cost improvement through collaborative FATS and supplier value engineering. The Company continues to evaluate in-house competencies or core processes for additional areas in which it can improve operating efficiencies.

Customer Support

FATS is committed to providing outstanding customer support. We deliver global after-sales customer service via strategically located Customer Support Departments that are centrally controlled from our corporate headquarters in Atlanta. Customer Service Technicians/Engineers are located in:

•

Atlanta for customers in the USA and Latin America.

•

Montreal for Canadian customers.

•

Lincolnshire, UK, Waardenburg, The Netherlands and Abu Dhabi, UAE for customers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

•

Albury, Australia and Singapore for customers in the Asia/Pacific region.

In addition to technical support, all FATS Customer Support Departments offer accessories, parts, system upgrades/enhancements and training. Also, the majority of our Customer Support Departments serve as “depots” storing government owned spare equipment and components. Depot customers include the U.S. Marine Corps, the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Air National Guard, the Canadian Department of National Defense, the Australian Defense Force and the British Ministry of Defense. Depot support includes shipping spare equipment and components to customers within 24 hours of notification of a weapon or system failure. Our Customer Support Departments offer website, hotline and after hours support, and are committed to rapid turnaround times when customers’ equipment is received for repair. All repairs conducted by FATS technicians and engineers undergo a final quality test prior to being shipped back to the customer.

Proprietary Operating System; Raw Materials and Suppliers

The Company currently purchases raw materials from numerous suppliers on both a competitive bid and long-term contract basis. We believe there are viable alternative sources for all of our raw materials. In addition, FATS has a sophisticated machine shop in which it can convert actual weapons into simulated weapons and produce certain weapon and simulator parts. This ability provides us with the flexibility to produce a large portion of our principal components if they become unavailable or it becomes economically advantageous to do so.

Backlog

As of March 31, 2006, the Company had a backlog of approximately $62.8 million compared with $58.4 million as of March 31, 2005. Our backlog as of March 31, 2006 consisted of $42.7 million from international customers, $19.6 million from U.S. military customers and $0.5 million from U.S. law enforcement customers. Management expects that approximately $15.5 million of backlog will be delivered in fiscal 2007. The U.S. and other government customers may generally terminate contracts, in whole or in part, for default or convenience if such termination would be in the best interest of the customer. However, these contracts generally provide for reimbursement of actual costs incurred plus a reasonable profit through the date of termination.

A summary of changes in the Company’s backlog for the years ended March 31, 2005 and 2006 is as follows (in thousands):


	Year Ended March 31,
	2005			2005			2006
Backlog - beginning of year	$	64,346		$	59,310		$	58,411

Backlog - end of year	$	59,310		$	58,411		$	62,771

Competition

The recent increase in sales and acceptance of small arms simulation products has brought about an increase in competition from both domestic and international companies. FATS faces a number of major competitors including Thales Elektronik Systeme GMBH, Cubic Simulation Systems, Inc., Advanced Interactive Systems, Inc. and I.E.S., Incorporated. We believe that none of these competitors offer the entire scope of training capability as does FATS. However, our competitors each possess marksmanship and judgmental training capability and have been very aggressive in the marketplace. FATS does not take the competition lightly and continues to enhance its existing product portfolio that allows the Company to be marketed as a leading provider of virtual training solutions.

The growing awareness of simulation budgets, combined with the competitive nature of the marketplace, have contributed to the formation of teaming arrangements by competitors that present potential competitive challenges. Many of the Company’s current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than FATS.

Employees

As of March 31, 2006, the Company and its subsidiaries employed 395 employees, of which 294 were employed at our corporate headquarters in Atlanta. Unions represent none of the Company’s employees. We consider relations with our employees to be satisfactory with employee turnover well below industry averages.

Government Contracts and Regulation

Sales to public sector customers are subject to detailed regulatory requirements and public policies that may affect the ability of the Company to increase or even maintain such sales. In particular, the choice of a contractor by a customer may be affected by the size of the contractor, the place of manufacture of the contractor’s products or whether the contractor is given preferential consideration based upon socioeconomic factors. Furthermore, contracts with government agencies are conditioned upon the continuing availability of public funds, which in turn depends upon lengthy and complex public budgetary procedures whose outcome is difficult to predict. In particular, contracts with the U.S. Government are conditioned upon the continuing availability of Congressional appropriations.

The U.S. Government or the relevant agency may generally terminate government contracts, in whole or in part for its convenience, if such termination would be in the best interest of the U.S. Government.

Furthermore, any contractor who is suspected of, or found to have engaged in, the commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with a government contract or subcontract, a serious violation of the terms of a government contract or subcontract, unfair trade practices, or any other offense indicating moral turpitude or a lack of business integrity or business honesty faces the possibility of being suspended or debarred from all further government contracting. The decision to suspend or debar a contractor is generally at the discretion of the government. Any such suspension or debarment could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future results of operations and financial condition.

The type of government contracts awarded to the Company in the future may affect our financial performance. A number of our contracts have been obtained on a sole source basis while others were obtained through a competitive bidding process. The extent to which the Company’s contracts and orders are obtained through a competitive bidding process or as sole source contracts may affect our profit margins.

We are subject to export licensing jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Commerce with respect to the temporary or permanent export of certain of FATS’ products and the import of certain other products based on the Arms Export Control Act and the Export Administration Act which, though expired, is carried out by Presidential Executive Order issued under the auspices of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. In addition to application to transfer information and products to customers, such regulations also may from time to time require a license for the transfer of technical information from the Company to its foreign subsidiaries, such as information necessary to enable a subsidiary to modify simulated weapons for use in systems being supplied by the subsidiary to customers. The respective jurisdictional statutes provide the State Department and the Commerce Department with the discretion to change their policies with respect to whether particular products can be licensed for export to particular countries. In certain circumstances, export licenses and other authorizations may be revoked, suspended or amended without notice. Both the State Department and the Commerce Department have the authority in certain circumstances to debar persons or deny them export privileges. Such action may be taken for, among other reasons, commission of civil violations and criminal offenses in connection with exports.

We have a license from the U.S. Justice Department’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) to import destructive devices and certain other materials. This license also authorizes us to be a dealer in regulated firearms and other destructive devices. FATS also has a license from ATF that authorizes it to be a manufacturer of destructive devices and certain other materials. The Company is registered with the Director of ATF as a person engaged in the business of importing articles enumerated on the U.S. Munitions Import List. ATF may revoke licenses or deny their renewal for failure to follow the prescribed regulations or as a result of the commission of criminal offenses. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries also have similar licenses in their jurisdictions of incorporation.

Certain FATS simulation systems use laser-emitting devices to locate the user’s aiming point in relation to the target. Such products must be manufactured and operated in accordance with safety standards adopted to protect human eyesight. In the United States, such standards are included as part of Food and Drug Administration regulations currently administered by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health. Systems sold to many international customers, including those in Europe and Canada, however, must comply with international standards, which contain more rigorous criteria than the present U.S. standards. Depending on the amount of laser energy emitted, room safety precautions, warning signs and labels, and special shut-off devices, special training for personnel and related safety measures may be required, which increase costs and can create administrative concerns for the Company’s customers.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

On July 30, 2002, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 was enacted. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act represents a comprehensive revision of laws affecting corporate governance, accounting obligations and corporate reporting.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act is applicable to all companies with equity securities registered or that file reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In particular, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act established: (i) new requirements for audit committees, including independence, expertise and responsibilities; (ii) additional responsibilities regarding financial statements for the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the reporting company; (iii) new standards for auditors and regulation of audits; (iv) increased disclosure and reporting obligations for the reporting company and its directors and executive officers; and (v) new and increased civil and criminal penalties for violations of the securities laws. Many of the provisions were effective immediately while other provisions become effective over a period of time and are subject to rulemaking by the SEC. Because FATS’ Common Stock is registered with the SEC, it is currently subject to this Act.

Since the Sarbanes-Oxley Act was enacted in 2002, the SEC and the various securities exchanges issued new regulations affecting the Company’s corporate governance and heightening its disclosure requirements. Among the many new changes are enhanced proxy statement disclosures on corporate governance, stricter independence requirements for the Board of Directors and its committees, and required posting of various SEC reports on the Company’s website.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information contained in this Report, you should consider carefully the following factors, risks and uncertainties in evaluating our business. Our business and operations are subject to a number of factors, risks and uncertainties, and the following list should not be considered to be a definitive list of all factors that may affect our business, financial condition and future results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the factors, risks and uncertainties contained in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution readers that any forward-looking statements made by us are made with the intention of obtaining the benefits of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act and that a number of factors, including but not limited to those discussed below, could cause our actual results and experiences to differ materially from the anticipated results or expectations expressed in any forward-looking statements.

Our business relies on maintaining key customer relationships and certain key contracts.

In fiscal 2004, the Company’s largest customers accounted for approximately 71.5% of the Company’s revenues, with three customers accounting for more than 10% of revenues. In fiscal 2005, the Company’s largest customers accounted for approximately 69.8% of the Company’s revenues, with three customers accounting for more than 10% of revenues. In fiscal 2006, the Company’s largest customers accounted for approximately 75.1% of the Company’s revenues, with 2 customers accounting for more than 10% of revenues. Given the nature of our contracts, revenues attributable to specific customers are likely to vary from year to year, and a significant customer in one year may not be a significant customer in a subsequent year. In order to reach our growth objectives, we will be required to seek contracts from new domestic and international customers as well as orders from existing customers for additional types of virtual simulated training solutions or increased quantities of previously ordered systems and simulated weapons. A significant decrease in demand by or the loss of one or more significant customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. See Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our business relies on obtaining key government contracts that are subject to regulatory requirements and availability of public funds.

Most of our customers to date have been in the public sector of the U.S., including the federal, state and local governments, and in the public sectors of a number of other countries. Approximately 55.0% of our revenues for fiscal 2006 were attributable to sales to military authorities in the U.S., 5.7% were attributable to sales to law enforcement authorities in the U.S. and 39.3% were attributable to sales to military and law enforcement authorities internationally. Sales to public sector customers are subject to a multiplicity of detailed

regulatory requirements and public policies. For example, we are subject to export licensing requirements with respect to the transfer of arms and technical data used by our foreign subsidiaries to modify simulated weapons for use in systems supplied to international customers. The key regulatory requirements for FATS are (1) the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) whose oversight is performed by the Directorate of Defense Controls (DDTC) of the U.S. State Department and (2) the U.S. Government Firearms Control Act whose oversight is performed by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.

The ITAR regulates exports of U.S. military equipment and technical data to our subsidiaries and foreign customers. The DDTC may revoke, suspend or amend our licenses without notice. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) authorizes FATS to be a dealer in regulated firearms and other destructive materials. The ATF, like the DDTC, may revoke licenses or deny their renewal for failure to follow prescribed regulations or as a result of the commission of criminal offenses. All of our subsidiaries also have similar licenses in their jurisdictions of incorporation.

Any revocation of or refusal to renew our licenses would have a material adverse effect on the conduct of our operations and financial condition since we must posses such licenses and comply with governmental regulations in order to manufacture and market our products. In addition, public sector customer contracts may be conditioned upon the continuing availability of public funds, which in turn depends upon lengthy and complex budgetary procedures, and may be subject to certain pricing constraints. Moreover, U.S. government contracts and those of many international government customers may generally be terminated for convenience for a variety of factors when it is in the best interest of the government. There can be no assurance that these factors or others unique to government contracts will not have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations and financial condition. See Business – Government Contracts and Regulation and – Customers.

Our business relies on maintaining and growing sales to international customers.

A significant portion of our sales is made to customers located outside the U.S., primarily in Europe and Asia. In fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, 39.3%, 45.1%, and 51.6% of our revenues, respectively, were derived from sales to customers located outside the U.S. We expect that our international customers will continue to account for a substantial portion of our revenues in the near future. Sales to international customers may be subject to political and economic risks, including political instability, wars, civil unrest, acts of terrorism and other conflicts, currency controls, exchange rate fluctuations and changes in import/export regulations and tariff rates. In addition, various forms of protectionist trade legislation have been and in the future may be proposed in the U.S. and certain other countries. Any resulting changes in current tariff structures or other trade and monetary policies could adversely affect our sales to international customers. Political and economic factors have been identified by the Company with respect to certain of the markets in which we compete. There can be no assurance that these factors will not result in defaults by customers in making payments due to the Company, in reductions in the purchases of our products by international customers or in foreign currency exchange losses. We do currently hedge on some, but not all, of these foreign currency transactions. In certain cases, we have reduced certain of the risks associated with international contracts by obtaining bank letters of credit to support the payment obligations of our customers and/or by providing in our contracts for payment in U.S. dollars.

Our success is dependent upon the Company’s ability to incorporate rapid technological change.

Our R&D personnel use certain established market-leading technologies to develop simulation systems and related products. Our continued success will depend on our ability to incorporate in FATS’ products changing technologies in such fields as electronics, mechanical engineering, training development and audio-visual and to develop and introduce new technology that meets the increasingly sophisticated training needs of our customers. Although we continuously pursue product R&D efforts, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in adapting to these developments in a timely fashion. Any failure to so adapt could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. See Business – Research and Development.

Our market is continuing to develop and there is no assurance that our products will continue to obtain acceptance.

The market for interactive small and supporting arms training simulators is developing, and we believe that the Company’s continued and future success will depend upon, among other factors, the extent to which domestic and foreign military services and law enforcement departments continue to adopt simulation in their training regimens. There can be no assurance that the use of simulation training systems will become widespread or continue to grow or that our products will maintain their current share of the market. See Business – Industry Overview.

We are likely to face continued competition for our products.

The relatively undeveloped nature of the market in which we compete may attract new entrants, as they perceive opportunities in this market. While management believes that the Company is currently the most effective competitor in its market, existing and new competitors may have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company, may foresee the course of market developments more accurately than the Company and may develop products or may adapt more quickly than the Company to new technologies or evolving customer requirements. With respect to potential competitors, we believe that as the firearms simulation market continues to develop, a number of large domestic defense contractors have the capacity to become significant competitors due to their expertise with complex simulation systems and their relationships with the Department of Defense and the U.S. Congress. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current market position, and failure to compete successfully with existing and new competitors could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. See Business – Competition.

Our quarterly results are subject to significant variations.

Our revenues and results of operations historically have varied substantially from quarter to quarter and we expect these variations to continue. Among the factors causing these variations have been the number, timing and scope of the Company’s contracts and purchase orders, concentration of shipments under large orders and the uneven timing of the receipt by the Company of necessary authorizations from government customers. We recognize revenues primarily upon shipment of our products to FATS customers, while a high percentage of our operating expenses, including personnel, rent and debt service, are relatively fixed in advance of any particular quarter. As a result, the concentration of several order deliveries in a particular quarter, unanticipated variations in the number and timing of shipments or customer delays in proceeding to succeeding stages of a contract could have a material adverse effect on our quarterly results of operations and financial condition. As a result of the foregoing factors, our operating results for a future quarter may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In such event, the price of our common stock will likely be adversely affected.

Our financial condition and the restrictive covenants contained in our credit facility may limit our ability to borrow additional funds or raise additional equity as may be required to fund our future operations.

Our accumulated deficit and stockholders’ deficit was approximately $154.4 million and $25.7 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2006. Moreover, the terms of our New Credit Agreement may limit our ability to, among other things:

•

incur additional debt;

•

retire or exchange outstanding debt;

•

pay cash dividends, redeem, retire or repurchase our stock or change our capital structure;

•

acquire assets or businesses or make investments in other entities;

•

enter into certain transactions with affiliates;

•

merge or consolidate with other entities;

•

sell or otherwise dispose of assets or use the proceeds from any asset sale or other disposition; and

•

create additional liens on our assets.

Our business depends on our ability to manage growth.

Our growth has been a result of our ability to define, develop and expand the markets for FATS products. Our future growth will depend on our ability to conduct such activities with the same or greater degree of success as in the past. Any such growth will continue to place significant demands on our management and other resources. In particular, we will have to continue to increase the number of FATS personnel, particularly marketing and management personnel, and continue to develop and improve our operational, financial and other internal systems, both in the U.S. and internationally. Our inability to manage growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on the quality of our products and services, our ability to attract and retain key personnel, our business prospects and our results of operations and financial condition.

We depend on our current personnel and may have difficulty attracting and retaining the skilled employees we need to execute our business plan.

Our future success will depend, in large part, on the continued service of our key management and technical personnel, including Ronavan Mohling, our Chief Executive Officer, David McGrane, our Chief Operating Officer, Gregory Ton, our Chief Financial Officer, and other key management, sales, marketing and R&D personnel. Failure to retain such key personnel or to attract and integrate other qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. If any of these individuals or others we employ are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer. We do not carry key person life insurance on our personnel. Mr. Mohling and Mr. McGrane have entered into an employment agreement with us; however, these agreements do not ensure their continued employment with us.

We are dependent on our relationship with our agents in some countries.

We conduct business in some countries using a local agent who can provide knowledge of the local market conditions and facilitate the acquisition of necessary licenses and permits. We rely in part upon the services of these agents to market our services, to act as intermediaries with customers and financial institutions and to provide other services on our behalf, such as training, minor maintenance, resolving customs issues, and collections. There can be no assurance that we will continue to be successful in maintaining our relationships with our agents in various foreign countries, or that we will find qualified replacements for agents who may terminate their relationships with us. Because our agents may occasionally have the primary relationship with certain of our customers, we could lose some customers if a particular agent were to terminate his or her relationship with us. The loss of or failure to obtain qualified agents in a particular country or region could result in the temporary or permanent cessation of our sales and/or the failure to develop our business in that country or region.

Because our business is dependent on commercial airfreight carriers and air charter operators, ocean freight carriers and other transportation companies, changes in available cargo capacity and other changes affecting such carriers, as well as interruptions in service or work stoppages by such carriers, may negatively impact our business.

We rely on commercial airfreight carriers and air charter operators, ocean freight carriers, trucking companies and other transportation companies for the movement of our products. Consequently, our ability to provide our products to our customer could be adversely impacted by shortages in available cargo capacity; changes by carriers and transportation companies in policies and practices such as scheduling, pricing, payment

terms and frequency of service or increases in the cost of fuel, taxes and labor; and other factors not within our control. Material interruptions in service or stoppages in transportation, whether caused by strike, work stoppage, lock-out, slowdown or otherwise, could adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, our competitive position would be adversely affected.

We rely on patent, trademark and copyright law, trade secret protection and confidentiality and/or license agreements with our employees, customers, partners and others to protect our intellectual property. Unauthorized third parties may copy our services or reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. End-user license provisions protecting against unauthorized use, copying, transfer and disclosure of any licensed program may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions and foreign countries. We may seek to patent certain processes or equipment in the future. We do not know if any of our patent applications will be issued with the scope of the claims we seek, if at all. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting our proprietary rights in the United States or abroad may not be adequate and third parties may infringe or misappropriate our copyrights, trademarks and similar proprietary rights. If we fail to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights, our business, financial condition and results of operations would suffer.

We believe that we do not infringe upon the proprietary rights of any third party. It is possible, however, that such a claim might be asserted successfully against us in the future. Our ability to provide our services depends on our freedom to operate. That is, we must ensure that we do not infringe upon the proprietary rights of others or have licensed all such rights. A party making an infringement claim could secure a substantial monetary award or obtain injunctive relief that could effectively block our ability to provide services in the United States or abroad. We may be unaware of intellectual property rights of others that may, or may be claimed, to cover our technology. Current or future claims could result in costly litigation and divert the attention of management and key personnel from other business issues. The complexity of the technology involved and the uncertainty of intellectual property litigation increase these risks. Claims of intellectual property infringement also might require us to enter into costly royalty or license agreements to the extent necessary for the conduct of our business. However, we may be unable to obtain royalty or license agreements on terms acceptable to us or at all. We also may be subject to significant damages or an injunction against use of our proprietary or licenses systems. A successful claim of patent or other intellectual property infringement against us could materially adversely affect our business and profitability.

Control of our stock is concentrated in a few existing stockholders.

A group of institutional lenders including several entities affiliated with Centre Partners Management beneficially own or have voting control over approximately 85% of the total outstanding shares of common stock with the Centre Partners affiliates Entities owning approximately 67%. Additionally, three of our directors are affiliated with Centre Partners. Such concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing certain types of transactions involving an actual or potential change in control of the Company, including transactions in which the holders of the common stock might receive a premium on their shares over a prevailing market price. Moreover, such concentration of ownership could result in the Company undertaking certain types of transactions, including a potential change of control transaction that it might not otherwise pursue. In addition, by virtue of ownership of a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Company, the institutional lenders and the Centre Partners affiliates will be able to control all elections of the directors as well as all other matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including amendments to the certificate of incorporation, mergers and sales of substantially all assets, going private transactions and other extraordinary transactions.

Provisions of our governing documents could discourage acquisition proposals or delay a change in control.

Our Board of Directors is classified into three classes, each of which will serve for three years, with one class being elected each year. In addition, our Board of Directors is empowered to issue, without stockholder

action, preferred stock having the terms designated by the Board of Directors. The structure of the Board of Directors and the existence of this “blank check preferred” could render more difficult an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a tender offer, merger, proxy contest or otherwise. The issuance of preferred stock also could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock and could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of common stock.

Investor interest in our common stock may be negatively affected by our continued trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board.

Our stock continues to trade on the NASD-operated Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) Bulletin Board. The OTC Bulletin Board market is generally considered to be less efficient and not as liquid as NASDAQ’s National Market. Continued trading in this market may decrease the market value and liquidity of our stock, which could materially and adversely affect our ability to attract additional investment to finance our operations. Numerous factors including announcements of fluctuations in the Company’s or its competitors’ operating results could have a significant impact on the future price of our common stock. In addition, in recent years, the equity market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market price for many growth companies and that frequently have been unrelated to the operating performance of those companies. Such market fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

We have no present intention to pay dividends and our credit facility restricts our ability to pay dividends in the future.

We currently intend to retain all available funds to finance the operation and expansion of our business and therefore do not anticipate paying any dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, the New Credit Agreement prohibits the payment of any dividends in respect of the common stock. See Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties

FATS’ Atlanta facility, located in Suwanee, Georgia, houses most of our manufacturing operations, as well as our corporate headquarters. The Suwanee facility occupies a 98,100 square-foot building that resides on eight acres. In addition, our United Kingdom subsidiary facility has the ability to produce a broad range of FATS^® simulated weapons, giving FATS the ability to shift production based on capacity constraints in Suwanee. Management believes that the Company has adequate manufacturing capacity to support projected growth, and that capacity can be increased with minimal capital expenditures. The Company’s subsidiaries located in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Australia, and Canada support sales, service, and training activities for FATS products.

The following table provides additional information regarding our facilities:


Facility	Location	Owned or Leased	Square Footage	Lease Expiration	Month of Expiration
FATS, Inc.	Suwanee, Georgia	Leased	98,100	2008	May
FATS, Inc.	Alpharetta, Georgia	Leased	11,350	2007	November
Firearms Training Systems Limited	Lincolnshire, UK	Leased	12,000	2009	June
Firearms Training Systems Netherlands, B.V.	Waardenburg, Netherlands	Leased	4,800	2006	August
FATS Canada, Inc.	Montreal, Canada	Leased	25,129	2007	February
Firearms Training Systems Australia Pty Ltd.	Lavington, Australia	Leased	10,000	2010	January

The Company has a lease at its Netherlands based subsidiary, Firearms Training Systems Netherlands, B.V., which expires in August 2006. The lease automatically renews each year until 2008 at the Company’s option and the Company intends to renew the lease with the same terms and conditions as in the expiring lease. There are no leasehold improvements at this location.

We believe FATS maintains adequate insurance coverage for its properties and their contents.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Company is occasionally involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. Management is currently unaware of any litigation or potential claims against FATS that would have a materially adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity, or results of operation.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

Dividends

We did not pay cash dividends on the Common Stock during the two most recently completed fiscal years. FATS currently intends to retain any earnings to finance operations and expansion and, therefore, does not anticipate paying any dividends on the Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Future dividends, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors and will depend upon the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, level of indebtedness and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. In addition, the Company’s New Credit Agreement prohibits the payment of any dividends on our Common Stock. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The Company did not make any repurchases of its equity securities during the fourth quarter of 2006.

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

This analysis of the Company’s results of operations should be viewed in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements, including notes thereto, contained in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This Report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934. Statements that are predictive in nature and that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that these statements are based upon reasonable expectations, we can give no assurance that their goals will be achieved. Please refer to the discussion of forward-looking statements included in Part I of this Report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make judgments regarding estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. We base our judgments on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe our judgments and related estimates regarding the following accounting policies are critical in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. See Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this Report for a discussion of our accounting policies with respect to these and other items.

Revenue Recognition

A significant amount of the Company’s revenue is derived from the sale of small and supporting arms training simulators and accessories. Revenue from sales to commercial customers and governmental agencies is recognized upon shipment when title passes; as all material commitments have been fulfilled, the sales price is fixed and determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Some contracts contain acceptance clauses giving customers a right to test products. In these instances, revenue is not recognized until the customer accepts the products or the acceptance clause lapses. A large portion of the Company’s small and supporting arms training simulator revenue is derived from contracts with large governmental agencies. Governmental contracts that involve high volume purchases of the Company’s standard systems and related accessories are accounted for as multiple-deliverable arrangements, in accordance with EITF 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables, based on the relative fair values of the deliverables specified in the contract. These contracts require little or no modifications to the existing proprietary platform, specify pricing terms by product, and billings generally correspond to the underlying shipment schedule. Revenue under these contracts is recognized upon delivery. Advanced billings related to these contracts are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized ratably as units are delivered.

Other governmental contracts require significant customization of the Company’s existing proprietary platform or require the development of new systems to meet required customer specifications. These contracts are accounted for under the percentage of completion method in accordance with SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction – Type and Certain Production – Type Contracts, measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date to the total costs for each contract. Contract costs include all direct material, direct labor and other costs directly related to the contract. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts accounted for under both methods described above are made in the period in which such losses are determined.

Revenue from extended warranty sales and customer logistics support sales are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized ratably as income over the lives of the related service agreements, which generally range from one to three years. Costs associated with these sales are recorded in the period incurred.

Inventory Valuation

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost on a moving weighted average or market, cost being determined on the first-in, first-out basis and market is defined as net realizable value. Management periodically reviews the Company’s inventory for items that may be deemed obsolete, damaged or for amounts on hand in excess of anticipated future demand. The underlying assumptions utilized in assessing the Company’s inventory change from time-to-time due to change in the underlying sales mix, the release of new versions of the Company’s proprietary system and overall changes in technology and the marketplace. As the Company develops new product lines future charges against income may be necessary to reduce inventory to its net realizable value.

Contract Loss Reserve

Management assesses the Company’s performance and estimated cost to complete ongoing sales contracts. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income. In the event management anticipates incurring costs in excess of contract revenues, the Company records a contract loss reserve in an amount equal to the estimated costs in excess of contracted revenues in the period in which such information becomes apparent.

Warranty Cost Reserve

Management periodically estimates expected warranty costs under the Company’s standard product warranty. In determining the estimate, management analyzes the relationship of historical standard warranty costs incurred on historical sales and the underlying product mix comprising the historical sales. Management, in turn, utilizes this historical information to estimate expected warranty costs on sales within the standard warranty time frame. Due to the inherent limitations in the estimation process, the potential for product defects and other unforeseen circumstances by the Company, the possibility exists that the recorded warranty reserve will be inadequate to offset actual warranty costs incurred resulting in additional charges against income in the period such information is determined. Also, actual warranty costs may be significantly lower than expected resulting in the reduction of the Company’s warranty reserve generating an addition to income in future periods.

Company Overview

We are a leading worldwide producer of interactive simulation systems designed to provide training for multiple markets to include the handling and use of small and supporting arms. FATS also competes in air defense and armored vehicle weaponry.

Although we sell our products and services to a large number of military and law enforcement agencies both in the U.S. and abroad, the top five customers accounted for approximately 71.5%, 69.8%, and 75.1% of the Company’s revenues in fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. A significant increase or decrease in demand by a major customer can have a substantial effect on our revenues, results of operations, and cash flow. Revenue from any one customer can vary materially from period to period. In addition, a significant decrease in the overall level or allocation of defense spending in the U.S. or other countries could have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations, financial condition, and cash flow. We expect that sales to the U.S. military will continue to comprise a significant portion of the Company’s revenues due to renewed commitments of the U.S. government to protect and safeguard its domestic and international interests. Significant portions of our revenue are derived from customers located outside the U.S., primarily in Canada, Europe and Asia. During fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006, approximately 51.6%, 45.1%, and 39.3% respectively, of our revenues were derived from sales to international customers. We expect that sales to international customers will continue to account for a significant percentage of future revenues, as the worldwide acceptance of simulation-based training systems continues to grow. Sales to international customers may be subject to political and economic risks, including political instability, currency controls, exchange rate fluctuations and changes in import/export regulations and tariff rates. In addition, various forms of protectionist trade legislation have been and in the future may be proposed in the U.S. and certain other countries. FATS, from time to time, experiences significant delays in receipt of payment for the delivery of products from certain international customers. Any resulting changes in current tariff structures or other trade and monetary policies could adversely affect these sales to international customers. Certain of our international sales are denominated in foreign currencies. We do currently hedge some, but not all, of these foreign currency transactions; however, the impact has not been material to the business.

Cost of revenues generally includes materials, direct labor, overhead, and other direct costs. Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development (R&D) costs, and bid and proposal expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and commissions, wages, benefits, legal, accounting, and marketing expenses. R&D expenses are largely comprised of salaries, wages, benefits, prototype equipment and project supplies. We expense all R&D costs in the period in which they are incurred.

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2006 Compared to the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2005

Net Revenue. Revenue decreased $9.8 million, or 11.1%, to $78.6 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to $88.4 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005. Sales to U.S. military customers for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006 decreased $0.5 million from $43.7 million to $43.2 million primarily due to timing of orders and delay of 2006 defense budget. Sales to U.S. law enforcement customers for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006 decreased $0.4 million from $4.9 million to $4.5 million reflecting state and municipality budgeting shortfalls associated with the diversion of funds to offset operational costs. Sales to international customers for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006 decreased $8.9 million from $39.8 million to $30.9 million primarily due to the near completion of a large, long-term percentage of completion contract in fiscal 2005.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue decreased to $50.1 million, or 63.8% of revenue for fiscal 2006, as compared to $57.4 million, or 65.0% of revenue for fiscal 2005. The decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue is attributable primarily to attaining significant cost reductions through more effective supply chain management and continual improvements in the manufacturing process.

Gross Margin. As a result of the foregoing, the gross margin decreased $2.4 million, or 7.8%, to $28.5 million, or 36.2% of revenue for fiscal 2006, as compared to $30.9 million, or 35.0% of revenue for fiscal 2005.

Total Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased $1.0 million, or 4.8%, to $19.7 million for fiscal 2006, as compared to $18.7 million for fiscal 2005. As a percentage of revenue, total operating expenses

increased to 25.0% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to 21.2% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, which includes depreciation and amortization, increased to $15.2 million, or 19.3% of revenue for fiscal 2006, from $14.7 million, or 16.7% of revenue for fiscal 2005. This increase in SG&A is due primarily to the increase in activity and infrastructure in the bid and proposal function. Research and development expenses increased to $4.5 million for fiscal 2006, as compared to $3.9 million for fiscal 2005, due primarily to increases in developmental efforts in new products and improving our standard product.

Operating Income. As a result of the foregoing, operating income decreased $3.4 million to $8.8 million, or 11.2% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to $12.2 million, or 13.8% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005.

Other Income (Expense), Net. Net interest expense on debt totaled $3.8 million, or 4.8% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to $4.9 million, or 5.6% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease in interest expense is due primarily to lower interest rates under the New Credit Agreement. Preferred dividends decreased $1.5 million due to the conversion of our Series B mandatorily redeemable preferred stock into a new Series C preferred stock, which currently does not pay dividends. In addition, due to the stronger dollar, the foreign currency exchange gain was $3,000 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the foreign exchange loss of $671,000 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased by $0.5 million from $2.4 million for fiscal 2005 to $1.9 million for fiscal 2006 primarily due to the completion of research and development tax credit documentation during fiscal 2006, which resulted in a larger tax credit than was provided for by the fiscal 2005 year end provision.

Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders. As a result of the foregoing, net income attributable to common stockholders increased $0.6 million to $3.2 million ($.04 per diluted share), or 4.1% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to $2.6 million ($0.03 per diluted share), or 2.9% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005.

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2005 Compared to the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2004

Net Revenue. Revenue increased $15.3 million, or 20.9%, to $88.4 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to $73.1 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004. Sales to U.S. military customers for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005 increased from $27.4 million to $43.7 million due to incremental sales and system upgrades with existing customers and sales of I-FACT (Close Air Support Trainer) and VCCT (Virtual Combat Convoy Trainer). Sales to U.S. law enforcement customers for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005 decreased $3.1 million, or 39.2%, to $4.8 million reflecting state and municipality budget shortfalls associated with diversion of funds to offset operational costs and the current concentration on Homeland Security efforts. Sales to international customers for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005 increased $2.0 million, or 5.3%, to $39.8 million. The increase in international sales was primarily due to the activation of amendments with existing contracts.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased to $57.4 million, or 65.0% of revenue, for fiscal 2005 as compared to $44.7 million, or 61.2% of revenue, for fiscal 2004. The increase in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue is attributable primarily to contract terms and conditions with specific deliveries in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004. The fiscal year 2005 cost of revenues of 65% compares favorably to historical results, reflecting continued cost reductions and process improvements.

Gross Margin. As a result of the foregoing, the gross margin increased $2.6 million, or 9.2%, to $30.9 million, or 35.0% of revenue, for fiscal year 2005, as compared to $28.3 million, or 38.8% of revenue, for fiscal 2004.

Total Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased $2.2 million, or 13.3%, to $18.7 million for fiscal 2005, as compared to $16.5 million for fiscal 2004. As a percentage of revenue, total operating expenses improved to 21.2% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to 22.5% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, which includes depreciation and amortization, increased to $14.7 million, or 16.7% of revenue, from $13.6 million, or 18.6% of revenue. This increase in SG&A is due primarily to increased emphasis in sales and marketing, bid and proposal costs for new business, and expenses associated with the reengineering of our Enterprise Resource Planning System. Research and development expenses increased to $4.0 million for fiscal 2005, as compared to $2.9 million for fiscal 2004 due primarily to increases in developmental efforts related to Bluefire weapons, enhancements to our I-FACT product, and single platform initiative.

Operating Income. As a result of the foregoing, operating income increased $0.3 million to $12.2 million, or 13.8% of revenue, for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to $11.9 million, or 16.3% of revenue, for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004.

Other Income (Expense), Net. Net interest expense on debt totaled $4.9 million, or 5.6% of revenue, for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to $5.2 million, or 7.1% of revenue, for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004. The decrease in interest expense is due primarily to lower interest rates on the New Credit Agreement. Preferred dividends decreased $1.3 million due to the conversion of our Series B mandatorily redeemable preferred stock into a new Series C preferred stock, which currently does not pay dividends. In addition, due to the weaker dollar, the foreign currency exchange loss was $0.7 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to foreign exchange income of $0.1 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004.

(Benefit) Provision for Income Taxes. The benefit from income taxes decreased by $4.3 million to a provision of $2.4 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005, primarily as a result of the elimination of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets creating a $1.9 million tax benefit in fiscal year 2004. In fiscal year 2005, positive operating income resulted in a utilization of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.

Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders. As a result of the foregoing, net income attributable to common stockholders decreased $3.2 million to $2.6 million ($.03 per diluted share) or 2.9% of revenue, as compared to $5.8 million ($0.08 per diluted share) or 8.0% of revenue, for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On September 30, 2004, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the New Credit Agreement) with CapitalSource Finance, LLC. The New Credit Agreement provides for: a revolving facility up to $12 million; a term A loan facility in an aggregate maximum principal amount of $15 million; and a term B loan facility in an aggregate maximum principal amount of $15 million. A more complete description of the terms of the New Credit Agreement, including collateralization, mandatory excess cash flow prepayments and restrictive covenants, is set forth in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this Report.

As of March 31, 2006, we had working capital of $30.8 million compared to $24.2 million as of March 31, 2005. The net $6.6 million increase in working capital is primarily due to a $2.2 million increase in accounts receivable, a $1.2 million increase in inventories, a $1.3 million decrease in accrued liabilities, and a $2.4 million decrease in deferred revenue, offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $2.0 million as discussed more fully below.

We had a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $2.0 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to a net increase of $4.1 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2005. For the period ended March 31, 2006, our operating activities used cash of approximately $3.0 million, primarily due to the

increases in the various working capital asset accounts and the decreases in the various working capital liability accounts, offset partially by $3.2 million in profitable operations. Our investing activities used cash of approximately $0.6 million, primarily for capital expenditures, offset partially by the increase in restricted cash. Our financing activities generated cash of approximately $2.1 million, primarily from the proceeds of long-term debt of $15.3 million, offset partially by long-term debt payments of $13.2 million.

Our $25.7 million stockholders’ deficit as of March 31, 2006 consists primarily of $154.4 million in accumulated deficit offset substantially by $128.0 million of additional paid-in capital. The accumulated deficit results primarily from $172.2 million in charges associated with a July 1996 recapitalization of the Company including the purchase and cancellation of 46.8 million shares of stock held by the former 100% owner of the Company. Positive retained earnings from operations reduced the recapitalization charges by approximately $17.8 million as of March 31, 2006.

Our primary capital requirements are for working capital, debt service, and capital expenditures. Since August of 2000, we have financed our operations and growth primarily through internally generated funds, the credit facility, and income tax refunds. With the issuance of the New Credit Agreement, which decreased debt and provided lower interest rates, management believes that funds provided by operations and amounts available under credit facility will be sufficient to fund our cash needs and anticipated capital expenditures through the year ending March 31, 2007. As previously disclosed, however, the Company has retained Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin Capital, Inc. as its exclusive financial advisor to assist the company in evaluating various strategic alternatives, including recapitalization, sale of stock, merger or asset disposition possibilities, all with the goal of maximizing stockholder value. The Company expects to complete its review of strategic alternatives and take any actions arising from this review during the next several months. However, there can be no assurance that this process will result in a transaction, any proposal or agreement for a transaction, or any other action by the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which is a revision of SFAS Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. This statement supercedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS 123R is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123; however, SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The effective date of this statement for the Company is April 1, 2006.

The Company plans to adopt SFAS 123R on the modified prospective basis beginning on April 1, 2006. Under the modified prospective basis, compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date of adoption (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date of adoption and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123 for all share-based awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of adoption that remain unvested on the date of adoption. Accordingly the consolidated results of operations for future periods will not be comparable to the Company’s historical consolidated results of operations. The adoption of SFAS 123R will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, increasing cost of revenue, sales and marketing expense, research and development expense and general and administrative expense. The Company currently estimates the adoption of SFAS 123R will reduce diluted earnings per share by approximately one cent in fiscal 2007; however the amount may change based on the number of options granted, the underlying share price at the time of grant, management’s estimate of forfeitures and management’s assumptions used to determine the options’ value, such as expected term and expected volatility. Management will use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to determine the value of employee stock options and will use binomial or lattice models to determine certain assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model, such as expected term. Expected volatility will be determined using a combination of historical volatility over a period equal to the expected term and implied volatility based on options traded by the general public.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our major market risk exposure arises from changes in interest rates and its impact on variable rate debt instruments. Our objectives in interest rate risk management are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows, and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we borrow at fixed rates when we have the opportunity and believe it is in the Company’s best interests to do so, and may enter into derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps and caps, in order to limit our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. We do not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. There were no derivative contracts in effect at March 31, 2006 or 2005.

As of March 31, 2006, we had a total of approximately $31.4 million in variable rate debt at differing interest rates tied to the prime rate. If interest rates on the Company’s existing variable rate debt were to increase by 10% over the next twelve months, management believes there would be no material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flow. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive and chief financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted, however, that because of inherent limitations, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its chief executive and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, the chief executive and chief financial officer of the Company concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

There are no family relationships among the executive officers or directors. There are no arrangements or understandings pursuant to which any of these persons were elected as an executive officer or director.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules to implement certain requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 pertaining to public company audit committees. One of the rules adopted by the SEC requires a company to disclose whether the members of its Audit Committee are “independent”. Since we are not a “listed” company, we are not subject to rules requiring the members of our Audit Committee to be independent. The SEC also requires a company to disclose whether it has an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” serving on its audit committee. The Company has an audit committee comprised of Darrell Oyer and Ronald Whitaker. Based on its review of the listing standards for the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. governing audit committee membership, the Board does believe that both Mr. Oyer and Mr. Whitaker are “independent” within the meaning of such rules. In addition, based on its review of the criteria of an Audit Committee Financial Expert under the rule adopted by the SEC, the Board does believe that Mr. Oyer would be described as an Audit Committee Financial Expert. The Board believes that Mr. Oyer’s prior experience in public company accounting through his employment with the international accounting firms described above and his continuing

demonstration that he is capable of (i) understanding generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and financial statements, (ii) assessing the general application of GAAP principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, (iii) analyzing and evaluating our financial statements, (iv) understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting and (v) understanding audit committee functions, sufficiently meet the requisite attributes of an Audit Committee Financial Expert under the rule adopted by the SEC.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance. Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders to file reports regarding initial ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC and any exchange upon which the Company’s securities are listed. Executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. The Company’s information regarding compliance with Section 16(a) is based solely on a review of the copies of such reports and written representations furnished to the Company by the Company’s executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders. The Company believes that, during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006, each of the Company’s executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders made all Section 16(a) filings as required.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct that applies to every director, officer and employee, with additional policies applying to the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers, in accordance with Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules of the SEC promulgated thereunder. The Code of Business Conduct is available on the Company’s website, www.fatsinc.com. In the event that we make changes in, or provide waivers from, the provisions of the Code of Business Conduct that the SEC requires us to disclose, we intend to disclose these events on our website.

In addition, directors of the Company are reimbursed for their reasonable expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors or committees thereof.

Additionally, on May 1, 2003, three directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company were granted options to purchase 300,000 shares of the Company’s stock at the $0.40 per share market value of the stock on the grant date. One-third of the options are exercisable per year on a cumulative basis beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, and the options expire on the seventh anniversary of the grant date.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

Ms. Gilleece and Mr. Perekslis currently serve and were members of the Compensation Committee during the Company’s 2006 fiscal year. None of the Company’s Compensation Committee members has ever been an officer or employee of the Company. In addition, none of the Company’s executive officers serve as a member of a board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers who serve on our Compensation Committee.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following Report of the Compensation Committee on Executive Compensation is provided in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, this report does not constitute “soliciting materials” and should not be deemed filed with or incorporated by reference into any other Company filings with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates such information by reference.

The compensation policies of the Company have been developed to link the compensation of executive officers with the development of enhanced value for the Company’s stockholders. Through the establishment of both short-term and long-term incentive plans and the use of base salary and performance bonus combinations, the Company seeks to align the financial interests of its executive officers with those of its stockholders.

PHILOSOPHY AND COMPONENTS

In designing its compensation programs, the Company has followed its belief that compensation should reflect both the Company’s recent performance and the value created for stockholders, while also supporting the broader business strategies and long-range plans of the Company. In doing so, the compensation programs for the last fiscal year reflected the following general characteristics:

•

The Company’s financial performance and, in particular, that of the individual.

•

An annual incentive arrangement that generates a portion of compensation based on the achievement of specific performance goals in relation to the Company’s internal budget and strategic initiatives, with superior performance resulting in enhanced total compensation.

The Company’s executive compensation was based upon the components listed below, each of which is intended to serve the overall compensation philosophy:

Base Salary. Base salary is intended to be set at a level that approximates the competitive amounts paid to executive officers of similar businesses in structure, size, and industry orientation. Salaries are determined informally through a review of published compensation surveys and proxy statements of other similar companies.

Incentive Compensation. In accordance with the Company’s philosophy of tying a substantial portion of the overall compensation of its executive officers to the achievement of specific performance goals, an incentive plan has been developed for the executive officers. The Company’s incentive plan is designed to reward superior performance with total compensation above competitive levels. On the other hand, if performance goals are not achieved and the Company suffers as a result, compensation of affected executive officers may fall below competitive levels.

Stock Options. The Company periodically considers awards to its executive officers of stock options granted under the terms of its Stock Option Plan. Options are awarded by the Stock Options Subcommittee to selected executive officers and other persons in recognition of outstanding contributions they may have made (or are being motivated to make) to the Company’s growth, development, or financial performance. The awarding of options is designed to encourage ownership of the Company’s Common Stock by its executive officers, thereby aligning their personal interests with those of our stockholders.

The Compensation Committee reviews and determines the compensation of the executive officers of the Company with this philosophy on compensation as its basis. While promoting initiative and providing incentives for superior performance on behalf of the Company for the benefit of its stockholders, the Compensation Committee also seeks to assure that the Company is able to compete for and retain talented personnel who will lead the Company in achieving levels of growth and financial performance that will enhance stockholder value over the long-term as well as short-term.

CEO COMPENSATION

Effective June 27, 2005, the Company reappointed Mr. Ronavan R. Mohling as Chief Executive Officer and entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Mohling. The base salary provided to Mr. Mohling was consistent with what the Compensation Committee believed was competitive in the Company’s industry,

opportunities for bonus compensation were tied to the Company’s performance, and options granted to Mr. Mohling were subject to vesting over a period of time consistent in terms of value to its stockholders. No bonus was provided to Mr. Mohling for fiscal 2006. The bonus provided for fiscal 2005 was directly tied to the Company’s substantially improved performance for fiscal 2005. This leadership resulted in increased revenues of 21% in fiscal 2005, while the gross margin increased 9%. The Compensation Committee specifically considered this performance in establishing the salary increase, bonus, and stock option awards granted to Mr. Mohling for fiscal 2005.

Based on 76,059,735 shares of Common Stock outstanding on June 27, 2006. Calculation of percentage of beneficial ownership assumes the exercise of all options exercisable within 60 days of such date only by the respective named stockholder. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock is based upon “beneficial ownership” concepts set forth in rules of the SEC under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under such rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within sixty (60) days. Under the rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he has no beneficial interest. For instance, beneficial ownership includes stock owned by spouses, minor children and other relatives residing in the same household, and trusts, partnerships, corporations or deferred compensation plans which are affiliated with the principal.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

of Firearms Training Systems, Inc.:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Firearms Training Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries at March 31, 2005 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedules listed in the index appearing under item 15(c) present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2006 AND 2005

Note 1: Organization and Nature of Business

Firearms Training Systems, Inc. (FATS or the Company) was incorporated in Delaware in 1984.

FATS is engaged in the development, manufacture, sale, and service of judgmental, tactical and combined arms virtual training systems utilizing quality engineered weapons and simulators. The Company’s products include simulators for military and law enforcement training. The Company’s customers include military and law enforcement agencies throughout the United States and many parts of the world.

The Company has one wholly owned subsidiary, FATS, Inc., which is the operating subsidiary (the Operating Subsidiary). As of March 31, 2006, FATS, Inc. had five wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Subsidiaries): Firearms Training Systems Limited, which is based in the United Kingdom; F.A.T.S. Singapore Pte, Ltd.; Firearms Training Systems Netherlands, B.V.; FATS Canada, Inc., which is based in Montreal, Canada; and Firearms Training Systems Australia Pty Ltd.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Subsidiary, and the Subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Foreign Currency Translation

The assets and liabilities of the Operating Subsidiary’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates.

The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit. Gains and losses, which result from foreign currency transactions, are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition

A large portion of the Company’s small and supporting arms training simulator revenue is derived from contracts with large governmental agencies. Governmental contracts that involve high volume purchases of the Company’s standard systems and related accessories are accounted for as multiple-deliverable arrangements, in accordance with EITF 00-21, based on the relative fair values of the deliverables specified in the contract. These contracts require little or no modifications to the existing proprietary platform, specify pricing terms by product, and billings generally correspond to the underlying shipment schedule. Revenue under these contracts is recognized upon delivery. Advanced billings related to these contracts are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized ratably as units are delivered.

F-6

FIREARMS TRAINING SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

are accounted for under the percentage of completion method in accordance with SOP 81-1, measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date to the total costs for each contract. Contract costs include all direct material, direct labor and other costs directly related to the contract. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts accounted for under both methods described above are made in the period in which such losses are determined.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents escrow accounts at financial institutions to collateralize letters of credit to ensure contract performance by the Company under specific contracts, which are for the most part substantially completed within one year. As each contract is completed, the restricted cash related to that contract becomes unrestricted. Approximately $2.8 million of the cash is invested in certificates of deposit yielding from 3.5% to 4.35% with maturity dates ranging from June 2006 to April 2007, unless otherwise extended.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of simulators, computer hardware, projectors, and component parts. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost on a moving weighted average basis or market. Cost includes materials, labor, and factory overhead. Market is defined as net realizable value. Management periodically reviews the Company’s inventory for items that may be deemed obsolete, damaged or for amounts on hand in excess of anticipated future demand. The underlying assumptions utilized in assessing the Company’s inventory change from time-to-time due to change in the underlying sales mix, the release of new versions of the Company’s proprietary system and overall changes in technology and the marketplace. As the Company develops new product lines future charges against income may be necessary to reduce inventory to its net realizable value.

Inventories consist of the following (in thousands):

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major property additions, replacements, and improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful lives of these assets are expensed currently. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and accelerated methods for income tax purposes. Estimated service lives of the principal items of property and equipment range from three to five years. Total depreciation expense for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006 was $826,000, $1,000,000 and $1,077,000, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances occur related to long-lived assets, the Company compares the estimated

F-8

FIREARMS TRAINING SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset, and the proceeds from its eventual disposition, with the assets carrying value. In the event the assets carrying value exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset.

Accrued Liabilities

Accrued liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):


	Year Ended March 31,
	2005		2006
Sales commissions, bonuses and agents’ commissions	$	1,557	$	485
Salaries and related expenses		2,191		2,447
Professional fees		479		549

Licenses and contract obligations		506		261
Other		1,082		1,120

	$	6,760	$	5,514

Accrued liabilities include amounts due to related parties of approximately $148,000 and $25,000 at March 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

Contract Loss Reserve

Management assesses the Company’s performance and estimated cost to complete ongoing sales contracts. In the event Management anticipates incurring costs in excess of contract revenues, the Company records a contract loss reserve in an amount equal to the estimated costs in excess of contracted revenues in the period in which such information becomes apparent. Excess costs are then charged against the reserve as incurred.

Warranty Cost Reserve

Management periodically estimates expected warranty costs under the Company’s standard product warranty and adjusts the warranty cost reserve to the current estimate. Warranty costs associated with contracts included in the estimate are then charged against the reserve as incurred. In determining the estimate, management analyzes the relationship of historical standard warranty costs incurred on historical sales and the underlying product mix comprising the historical sales. Management, in turn, utilizes this historical information to estimate expected warranty costs on sales within the standard warranty time frame.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company accounts for stock incentives available to employees and non-employee directors under its stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees as allowed under FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. The Company has adopted the provisions of FAS No. 123 and FAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, which require disclosure of the pro forma effects on earnings and earnings per share as if SFAS No. 123 had been adopted.

FIREARMS TRAINING SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

The Company has computed for pro forma disclosure purposes the value of all options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as prescribed by SFAS No. 123 using the following assumptions:

	2004		2005		2006
Risk-free interest rate	2.28	%	3.27	%	N/A
Expected dividend yield	—		—		N/A
Expected lives (in years)	3.5		3.5		N/A
Expected volatility	221.58	%	196.47	%	N/A

The Company issued options to purchase a total of 5.8 million shares of its common stock under its option plan on May 1, 2003, with an exercise price equal to the $.40 per share market value of the stock on that date. During the year ended March 31, 2004, the weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted was computed as approximately $2.2 million or $.38 per share under option.

The Company issued options to purchase a total of 750,000 shares of its common stock under its option plan on August 4, 2004, with an exercise price equal to the $.64 per share market value of the stock on that date. During the year ended March 31, 2005, the weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted was computed as approximately $450,000 or $.60 per share under option.

No options were granted during the fiscal year March 31, 2006, and accordingly, the assumptions are not applicable for that period.

The values above, and the value computed for unvested options granted in prior years, is being amortized on a pro forma basis over the vesting period of the options. Pro forma information (in thousands, except per share amounts) regarding net income and income per share as if the Company had accounted for options using the fair value method is as follows:


	Year Ended March 31,
	2004			2005			2006

In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which is a revision of SFAS Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. This statement supercedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS 123R is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123; however, SFAS 123R requires all share-based payment to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The effective date of this statement for the Company is April 1, 2006.

F-10

FIREARMS TRAINING SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Certain other disclosures are required with respect to stock compensation under the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and are included in Note 5.

Research and Development Activities

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development costs included in the accompanying statements of income include salaries, wages, benefits, general and administrative, prototype equipment, project supplies and other related costs directly associated with research and development activities.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred.

Financial Instruments

SFAS No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the following information about the fair value of certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. For purposes of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.

The financial instruments of the Company consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt as of March 31, 2005 and 2006. In management’s opinion, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to either the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments or a fluctuating rate based on the prime rate. Therefore, the Company believes the carrying amount of fluctuating rate debt approximates fair value.

Income Taxes

The Company is a C corporation for U.S. federal income tax reporting purposes and accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the use of an asset and

F-11

FIREARMS TRAINING SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets or liabilities at the end of each period are determined using the tax rate expected to apply to taxable income in the period in which the deferred tax asset or liability is expected to be settled or realized. A valuation allowance is recorded when the Company deems it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Use of Estimates and Accruals

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and contingent amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for excess and obsolete inventory, contract loss reserve, and warranty reserve. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a defined contribution profit sharing plan (the Plan) that covers substantially all Company employees. The Plan provides for annual contributions by the Company at the discretion of the board of directors. The Plan also contains a 401(k) feature, which allows participants to contribute up to 15% of their eligible compensation, as defined, and provides for discretionary employer matching contributions of cash and Company stock. Matching of contributions with Company stock ended in May 2001. Total contributions by the Company to the Plan were approximately $309,000, $460,000 and $348,000 for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Expenses

All shipping and handling fees charged to customers are included as a component of revenues. Shipping and handling costs incurred are included as a part of the cost of revenues.

On September 30, 2004, the Company and the Operating Subsidiary entered into a Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with CapitalSource Finance LLC (“CapitalSource”), a related party as described in Note 10, as administrative, payment and collateral agent for the lenders named therein. The New Credit Agreement permits a maximum borrowing capacity of $42 million and matures on September 30, 2009.

F-12

FIREARMS TRAINING SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

The New Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility pursuant to which up to $12,000,000 in principal may be drawn (subject to adjustment based on letter of credit usage and compliance with identified leverage ratios), a $15,000,000 “Term A” loan and a $15,000,000 “Term B” loan. The revolving credit facility requires the Company to pay interest on a monthly basis in cash at an annual rate equal to the “prime rate” plus .5% subject to a floor of 4.75% (8.25% at March 31, 2006). At March 31, 2006, the amount available on the revolving credit facility was approximately $5,465,000, which includes approximately $172,000 related to a letter of credit. Any amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are due in full on September 30, 2009. For the year ended March 31, 2005 and 2006, interest expense on the revolving credit facility was approximately $208,000 and $232,000, respectively.

The Term A loan requires the Company to pay interest on a monthly basis in cash at an annual rate equal to the “prime rate” plus 3% subject to a floor of 7.25% (10.75% at March 31, 2006). The Company must also make scheduled quarterly payments of principal under the Term A loan. The quarterly principal payments required are in the amount of $531,250 for the first year of the term, $750,000 for the second through fourth years of the term, and $968,750 in the fifth year of the term. For the year ended March 31, 2005 and 2006, interest expense on the Term A loan was approximately $613,000 and $1,137,000, respectively.

The Term B loan requires the Company to pay interest on a monthly basis in cash at an annual rate equal to the “prime rate” plus 6% subject to a floor of 10.25% (13.75% at March 31, 2006). The Company is also required to pay interest payable-in-kind (“PIK interest”), which accrues monthly at an annual rate of 1.5%. The PIK interest is due and payable on the earlier to occur of (i) the Company’s early redemption or termination of the Term B loan, (ii) the lender’s demand as a result of a default or (iii) September 30, 2009. The Company has the option at any time to pay the PIK interest in cash. Outstanding principal under the Term B loan is due in full at the maturity date. For the year ended March 31, 2005and 2006, interest expense on the Term B loan, including PIK interest, was approximately $970,000 and $2,189,000, respectively.

Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Company has also pledged all of the stock of its operating subsidiary, FATS, Inc., and 65% of the stock of its foreign subsidiaries. The Company generally will be required to apply all proceeds it receives from transactions in which it sells any material assets, sells equity securities or incurs indebtedness for borrowed money as a mandatory prepayment on the outstanding obligations under the New Credit Agreement. In addition, subject to certain availability exceptions, the Company will be required to apply 50% of its excess cash flow each year as a mandatory prepayment. Among other restrictions, the New Credit Agreement includes certain restrictive covenants, including covenants related to future indebtedness, asset acquisitions and dispositions, investments and maintenance of required leverage ratios, minimum EBITDA, as defined, and fixed charge coverage ratios. In addition, the New Credit Agreement requires the Company to pay a number of lender fees including: (i) an unused credit line fee equal to 0.0417% per month of the difference between average outstanding revolving loans and the revolving loan cap; (ii) a monthly collateral management fee equal to 0.0417% per month of the average outstanding revolving loans; (iii) a monthly float day fee calculated in accordance with a specified formula; (iv) a letter of credit fee equal to 3% of the undrawn face amount of outstanding letters of credit; and (v) a termination fee (ranging from 1% to 2% of the amount prepaid as to the Term A loan, and either a yield maintenance fee calculated in accordance with a specified formula or up to 2% of the amount prepaid depending on the timing of the prepayment as to the Term B loan) in the event the term loans are prepaid prior to the second anniversary of the closing. For the year ended March 31, 2005 and 2006, the expense associated with these lenders fees was approximately $74,000 and $114,000. respectively.

Holders of the Series C preferred stock are entitled to receive, if declared by the board, cumulative dividends equal to (i) 10% of the liquidation preference per year through March 31, 2006; (ii) 12% of the liquidation preference per year through September 30, 2006 and (iii) 14% of the liquidation preference per year thereafter, payable in cash. Dividends are cumulative and compound quarterly whether or not there are funds available for the payment of dividends.

The Company issued 3,202.78 shares of Series C preferred stock with a liquidation value of $10,000 (subject to adjustment to reflect any stock split, combination, reclassification or similar event involving the Series C Preferred) per share (approximately $32.03 million) in September 2004 in exchange for the then outstanding 32,027.80 shares of the Series B preferred stock. No gain or loss was recognized as a result of this exchange as the fair value of Series C approximated the fair value of Series B. The fair values were obtained by a third-party valuation. At March 31, 2006, the liquidation value for the Series C preferred stock was $11,597 per share.

The Company may redeem the shares of Series C Preferred at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the liquidation preference plus the amount of all accrued and unpaid dividends, whether or not earned or declared. The shares of Series C Preferred are required to be redeemed upon the occurrence of a “change of control” (which includes the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, merger, consolidation or similar event in which more than 50% of the voting stock of the Company is transferred). In the event the Company is legally prohibited from redeeming the shares when required (or the Company materially breaches any of its other obligations under the Series C Designations), the applicable dividend rate payable on the Series C Preferred will be increased by 2% per annum.

The Series C Preferred ranks prior to all other classes of preferred and common stock as to payment of dividends and the distribution of amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Holders of shares of the Series C Preferred generally do not have any voting rights other than those provided by law. The Company must obtain the consent from holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred in order to: (i) enter into any plan of liquidation or dissolution (unless prior written notice of any such plan is given to the Series C Preferred holders and, as a result of such liquidation or dissolution, the Company is able to satisfy in full the liquidation preferences together with all accrued and unpaid dividends on the shares); (ii) enter into any agreement which by its terms would violate or conflict with the rights of the Series C Preferred holders; (iii) subject to certain exceptions, amend or waive any provision of the Series C Designations or the Company’s certificate of incorporation. Any amendment that would decrease the dividend rate payable on the Series C Preferred requires the consent of all holders of Series C Preferred. Any amendment that would increase the authorized number of Series C Preferred shares or that would result in the issuance of capital stock ranking senior to or on parity with the Series C Preferred as to dividends or rights upon liquidation requires the consent of at least two holders who are not affiliates of each other and who hold, in the aggregate, at least a majority of the Series C Preferred shares.

common stock held by the Centre Partners affiliates. The Management Holders have similar tag along rights pursuant to which they can participate in a sale by the Centre Partners affiliates of 5% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock to an unaffiliated third party.

The Centre Partners affiliates also have agreed to assist the Management Holders in registering proportionate amounts of the common stock held by such Management Holders if the Centre Partners affiliates exercise any rights to register common stock under a registration rights agreement, which granted certain investors, including the Centre Partners affiliates certain demand registration rights exercisable on no more than ten occasions as well as certain piggyback registration rights. The Management Shares Agreement terminates: (i) with respect to the Centre Partners affiliates, at such time as they hold less than 10% of the outstanding shares of common stock and (ii) ten years from the date of the agreement, if not sooner terminated.

For the year ending March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2006, the Company recorded tax expense using a federal and state annual effective rate of approximately 38% and 36%, respectively. The current year decrease in the effective tax rate is due primarily to the completion of research and development tax credit documentation and a change in the Georgia tax law, which decreased the state deferred tax asset.

As of March 31, 2006, the Company had no available domestic federal operating loss carryforwards and approximately $8.8 million of domestic state operating loss carryforwards. As of March 31, 2006, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be recognized through future taxable income and, accordingly, a valuation allowance is not necessary. The Company’s net tax loss carryforwards expire on various dates through March 31, 2023.

Note 7: Concentration of Revenues

For the years ended March 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006, the Company’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 71.5%, 69.8% and 75.1% of the Company’s total revenues, respectively. For any period, a major customer is defined as a customer from whom the Company generated more than 10% of its revenues for that period. The following table summarizes information about the Company’s major customers for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006:


Year	Major Customers	Aggregate Revenues (000s)		Percent of Total Revenues

	Italy – Carabinieri	$	10,261	14.0	%

2006
	United Kingdom Ministry of Defense	$	7,818	10.0	%
	United States government agencies	$	31,301	39.8	%

As of March 31, 2004, the Company had three customers that comprised approximately 44.0%, 26.4% and 10.5% of total accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2005, the Company had three customers that comprised approximately 20.6%, 16.2%, and 11.4% of total accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2006, the Company had two customers that comprised approximately 51.5% and 20.4% of total accounts receivable.

Given the nature of the Company’s contracts, revenues attributable to specific customers are likely to vary from year to year, and a significant customer in one year may not be a significant customer in a subsequent year. In order to reach its growth objectives, the Company will be required to seek contracts from new domestic and international customers as well as additional orders from existing customers. A significant decrease in demand by or the loss of one or more major customers without significant increases in orders from new customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

The type of government contracts awarded to the Company in the future may affect its financial performance. A number of the Company’s contracts have been obtained on a sole-source basis, while others were obtained through a competitive bidding process. The extent to which the Company’s contracts and orders are obtained through a competitive bidding process or as sole-source contracts may affect the Company’s profit margins. The contracts obtained by the Company in the future may also be cost reimbursement-type contracts rather than fixed-price contracts, which may not take into account certain costs of the Company such as interest on indebtedness. There can be no assurance that changes in the type of government contracts and other contracts entered into by the Company in the future will not have a material adverse effect on future results of operations or financial condition of the Company.

A significant portion of the Company’s sales is made to customers located outside the U.S., primarily in Canada, Europe and Asia. In fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006, 51.6%, 45.1% and 39.3%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues were derived from sales to customers located outside the United States. The Company expects that its international customers will continue to account for a substantial portion of its revenues in the near future. Sales to international customers may be subject to political and economic risks, including political instability, currency controls, exchange rate fluctuations and changes in import/export regulations and tariff rates. In addition, various forms of protectionist trade legislation have been, and in the future may be, proposed in the U.S. and certain other countries. Any resulting changes in current tariff structures or other trade and monetary policies could adversely affect the Company’s sales to international customers. The Company with respect to certain of the markets in which it competes has identified political and economic factors. There can be no assurance that these factors will not result in defaults by customers in making payments due to the Company, in reductions in the purchases of the Company’s products by international customers or in foreign currency exchange losses. In certain cases, the Company has reduced certain of the risks associated with international contracts by obtaining bank letters of credit to support the payment obligations of its customers and/or by providing in its contracts for payment in U.S. dollars.

The average common share market price used in the above calculation was $0.47, $1.12 and $1.17, respectively, for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006.

Options to purchase 874,908 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 3,246,164 shares of common stock were outstanding as of March 31, 2004, but were not included in the computation of the 2004 diluted EPS because the exercise price of the options and warrants was greater than the average market value of the common shares.

Options to purchase 63,950 and 2,300 shares of common stock were outstanding as of March 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively, but were not included in the computation of the 2005 and 2006 diluted EPS because the exercise price of the options was greater than the average market value of the common shares.

Note 9: Related Party Transactions

Special Situations Opportunity Fund I, LLC, one of the Term A lenders under the New Credit Agreement described in Note 4, is an affiliate of First Source Financial, Inc.
