Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp.
Opinion on
the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets
of Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp (the Company) as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the related
statements of comprehensive income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes
to the financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
Basis for
Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based
on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) ( PCAOB ) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company
in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with
the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have,
nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required
to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to
assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures
that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ Freed Maxick CPAs, P.C.
We have served as the Company's auditor since 2014.

Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp.
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1. Nature of Operations
Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp. (the
Company) is a manufacturer of electronic equipment used primarily in military and industrial applications. The principal markets
for the Company's products are companies that provide electronic support to both military and industrial applications across the
United States and at some international locations.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue
The majority of our net sales is generated
from contracts with industrial manufacturers and defense companies, the Department of Defense, other agencies of the government
of the United States and foreign governments for the design, development and/or manufacture of products. Contracts may be long-term
in nature. We provide our products and design and development services under fixed-price contracts. Under fixed-price contracts
we agree to perform the specified work for a pre-determined price. To the extent our actual costs vary from the estimates upon
which the price was negotiated, we will generate more or less profit or could incur a loss.
We account for a contract after it has been
approved by all parties to the arrangement, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract
has commercial substance, and collectability of consideration is probable. We assess each contract at its inception to determine
whether it should be combined with other contracts. When making this determination, we consider factors such as whether two or
more contracts were negotiated and executed at or near the same time, or were negotiated with an overall profit objective.
We evaluate the products or services promised
in each contract at inception to determine whether the contract should be accounted for as having one or more performance obligations.
Significant judgment is required in determining performance obligations. We determine the transaction price for each contract based
on the consideration we expect to receive for the products or services being provided under the contract. The transaction price
for each performance obligation is based on the estimated standalone selling price of the product or service underlying each performance
obligation. Transaction prices on our contracts subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) are typically based on estimated
costs plus a reasonable profit margin.
We recognize revenue using the output method
based on the appraisal of results achieved and milestones reached or units delivered based on contractual shipment terms, typically
shipping point.
Inventory
Raw materials are valued at the lower of cost
(average cost) or net realizable value. Balances for slow-moving and obsolete inventory are reviewed on a regular basis by analyzing
estimated demand, inventory on hand, sales levels, market conditions, and other information and reduce inventory balances based
on this analysis.
Inventoried work relating to contracts
in process and work in process is valued at actual production cost, including factory overhead incurred to date. Contract costs
include material, subcontract costs, labor, and an allocation of overhead costs. Work in process represents spare units and parts
and other inventory items acquired or produced to service units previously sold or to meet anticipated future orders. Provision
for losses on contracts is made when the existence of such losses becomes probable and estimable. The provision for losses
on contracts is included in other accrued expenses on the Company’s balance sheet. Contracts are subject to modification,
change or cancellation, and the Company accounts for these changes as they are probable and estimable. The Company evaluates
the impact of any scope modifications and will adjust reserves as information is known and estimable. Subsequent to
year end, the Company received a request from a customer to temporarily stop work on a contract for a minimum of 120 days.
The Company has determined that there is no immediate impact for the request, however the Company will continue to evaluate any
impact on the financial statements. The costs attributed to units delivered under contracts are based on the estimated average
cost of all units expected to be produced. Certain contracts are expected to extend beyond twelve months.
The estimation of total cost at completion
of a contract is subject to numerous variables involving contract costs and estimates as to the length of time to complete the
contract. Given the significance of the estimation processes and judgments described above, it is possible that materially
different amounts of expected sales and contract costs could be recorded if different assumptions were used,
based on changes in circumstances, in the estimation process. When a change in expected sales value or estimated cost is
determined, changes are reflected in current period earnings.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued
Contract Liabilities
Contract liabilities include advance payments
and billings in excess of revenue recognized.
Depreciation
Depreciation of plant and equipment is
computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Estimated useful lives of depreciable
assets are as follows:
Buildings and improvements
10 – 50 years
Machinery and equipment
3 – 20 years
Furniture and fixtures
7 – 10 years
Income Taxes
The Company follows the provisions of
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740-10, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
Under the provisions of ASC 740-10, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected
to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred taxes and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings
in the period that includes the enactment date.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of
cash and money market funds. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
Investment Securities
The Company accounts for its
investment securities in accordance with ASC 320-10-25, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities.” Investment securities at June 30, 2020 and 2019 consist of certificates of deposit and municipal
bonds. The Company classifies investment securities as available-for-sale. Unrealized holding gains and losses,
net of related tax effect, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate
component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as
available-for-sale are included in earnings and are determined using the specific identification method. Interest
income is recognized when earned. Fair values are based on quoted market prices available as of the balance sheet date,
and are therefore considered a Level 1 valuation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy
which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair
value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
§ Level
1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as
of the measurement date.
§ Level
2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted
prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
18
Espey Mfg. & Electronics Corp.
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued
§ Level
3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing an asset or liability.
The carrying amounts of financial instruments,
including cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and contract
liabilities, approximated fair value as of June 30, 2020 and 2019 because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial
instruments.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for
Doubtful Accounts
The Company extends credit to its customers
in the normal course of business and collateral is generally not required for trade receivables. Exposure to credit risk
is controlled through the use of credit approvals, credit limits, and monitoring procedures. Accounts receivable are reported
net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates the allowance based on its analysis of specific balances.
Interest is not charged on past due balances. Based on these factors, there was an allowance for doubtful accounts of $3,000
at June 30, 2020 and 2019. Changes to the allowance for doubtful accounts are charged to expense and reduced by charge-offs,
net of recoveries.
Per Share Amounts
ASC 260-10 “Earnings Per Share
(EPS)” requires the Company to calculate net income (loss) per share based on basic and diluted net income (loss) per share,
as defined. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts
to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding options issued by
the Company are reflected in diluted EPS using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, options will only
have a dilutive effect when the average market price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income
and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income for fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 consists of unrealized
holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities.
Use of Estimates
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 amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications may have been made
to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU
No. 2018-02, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects
from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”. Under current accounting guidance, the income tax effects for changes in income
tax rates and certain other transactions are recognized in income from continuing operations resulting in income tax effects recognized
in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income that do not reflect the current tax rate of the entity (“stranded tax effects”).
The new guidance allows the Company the option to reclassify these stranded tax effects to retained earnings that relate to the
change in the federal tax rate resulting from the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). This update
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods therein, and early adoption is permitted.
The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued guidance
(ASU 2019-12) intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The amendments in this guidance are effective for fiscal years,
and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020 (the Company’s fiscal 2021), with early
adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the Company’s disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13,
“Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This
ASU is part of the FASB’s larger disclosure framework project intended to improve the effectiveness of financial statement
footnote disclosure. ASU 2018-13 modifies required fair value disclosures related primarily to level 3 investments. This
ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods. The
adoption of ASU 2018-13 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations,
and cash flows.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, including property, plant,
and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount
of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of
an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount
of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no impairments of long-lived assets in fiscal years 2020 and
2019. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount
or fair value less costs to sell, and no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as
held for sale are presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet, if applicable.
Concentrations of Risk
The market for our defense electronics
products is largely dependent on the availability of new contracts from the United States and foreign governments to prime contractors
to which we provide components. Any decline in expenditures by the United States or foreign governments may have an adverse
effect on our financial performance.
Generally, U.S. Government contracts
are subject to procurement laws and regulations. Some of the Company’s contracts are governed by the Federal Acquisition
Regulation (FAR), which lays out uniform policies and procedures for acquiring goods and services by the U.S. Government, and agency-specific
acquisition regulations that implement or supplement the FAR. For example, the Department of Defense implements the FAR through
the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation (DFAR).
The FAR also contains guidelines and
regulations for managing a contract after award, including conditions under which contracts may be terminated, in whole or in part,
at the government’s convenience or for default. If a contract is terminated for the convenience of the government,
a contractor is entitled to receive payments for its allowable costs and, in general, the proportionate share of fees or earnings
for the work done. If a contract is terminated for default, the government generally pays for only the work it has accepted.
These regulations also subject the Company to financial audits and other reviews by the government of its costs, performance, accounting
and general business practices relating to its contracts, which may result in adjustment of the Company’s contract-related
costs and fees.
Note 3. Revenue
Effective July 1, 2018, we adopted Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC) 606 “Revenue from Contracts
with Customers”, which requires entities to assess the products or services promised in contracts with customers at contract
inception to determine the appropriate unit at which to record revenues. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised
products or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be
entitled to in exchange for those products or services. We adopted ASC 606 using the
modified retrospective method, which means, using the allowed practical expedient, we applied the new standard to open
contracts at June 30, 2018. We reviewed remaining obligations as of the effective date and determined no adjustment was
required to the opening balance of retained earnings. Under the modified retrospective method, prior period revenue is
not restated for comparative periods. As a result of the adoption, we reclassified customer advance payments from
inventory to contract liabilities. Contract liabilities were $2,175,235 and $6,054 as of June 30, 2020 and June 30,
2019, respectively. The increase in contract liabilities is primarily due to cash collected from progress payments
related to specific contracts. The company used the practical expedient to expense incremental costs incurred to obtain a
contract when the contract term is less than one year.

Note 3. Revenue, Continued
Significant judgment is required in determining
the satisfaction of performance obligations. Revenues from our performance obligations are satisfied over time using the
output method which considers the appraisal of results achieved and milestones reached or units delivered based on contractual
shipment terms, typically shipping point. Revenue is recognized when the customer takes control of the product or services.
The output method best depicts the transfer of control to the customer as the output method represents work completed. Control
is typically transferred to the customer at shipping point as the Company has a present right to payment, the customer has legal
title to the asset, the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset, and in most instances the customer
has accepted the asset.
Total revenue recognized for the twelve months
ended June 30, 2020 based on units delivered totaled $25,739,709 compared to $30,677,077 for the same periods in 2019. Total
revenue recognized for the twelve months ended June 30, 2020 based on milestones achieved totaled $5,786,522 compared to $5,800,774
for the same periods in 2019.
The Company offers a standard one-year product
warranty. Product warranties offered by the Company are classified as assurance-type warranties, which means, the warranty only
guarantees that the good or service functions as promised. Based on this, the provided warranty is not considered to be a distinct
performance obligation. The impact of variable consideration has been considered but none identified which would be required
to be allocated to the transaction price as of June 30, 2020. Our payment terms are generally 30-60 days.
The Company’s backlog at June 30, 2020
totaling $54.9 million is expected, based on contractual due dates, to be recognized in the following fiscal years: 66% in 2021;
24% in 2022; 7 % in 2023, and 3% thereafter.

Note 7. Pension Expense
Under terms of a negotiated union contract
which expires on June 30, 2022, the Company is obligated to make contributions to a union-sponsored International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers Local 1799 defined benefit pension plan (Plan identifying number is 14-6065199) covering eligible employees.
Such contributions and expenses are based upon hours worked at a specified rate and amounted to $121,273 in fiscal year 2020 and
$129,095 in fiscal year 2019. These contributions represent more than five percent of the total contributions made into the Plan.
For the years beginning January 1, 2020 and 2019, the Plan was in the “green zone” which means it is neither endangered
nor critical status. A Funding Improvement Plan, entered into by Plan Trustees in fiscal year 2013, when the Plan was in “critical
status,” calls for an increase in contributions starting January 1, 2016 of $0.04 per hour for each year for five years thereafter.
The increase did not and will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

measured by tax laws and regulations. These "temporary differences" are determined in accordance with ASC 740-10.
The combined U.S. federal and state effective
income tax rates of 11.1% and 18.7%, for 2020 and 2019 respectively, differed from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate for
the following reasons:

Note 8. Provision for Income Taxes, Continued
In assessing the realization of deferred
tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be
realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the
periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities,
projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable
income and projection for future taxable income over the period in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes
it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences without consideration of a
valuation allowance.
As the result of the implementation of
the FASB interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of
FASB Statement No. 109, the Company recognized no material adjustments to unrecognized tax benefits. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019,
the Company has no unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties
in general and administrative expense. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company has not recorded any provision for accrued interest
and penalties.
The Company is subject to taxation in
the United States and various state jurisdictions. By Federal statute tax returns are subject to audit for three years from date
of filing unless the return was audited within that period. In general the majority of state statues follow similar guidelines.
As such, the Company’s tax returns for tax years ending June 30, 2020, 2019, 2018, and 2017 remain open to examination by
the respective taxing authorities.
Note 9.
Significant Customers
A significant portion of the Company's business
is the production of military and industrial electronic equipment for use by the U.S. and foreign governments and certain industrial
customers. Sales to two domestic customers, accounted for approximately 38% of total sales in 2020. Sales to three domestic customers
accounted for 54% of total sales in 2019. The related accounts receivable balance, as a percentage of the Company's total trade
accounts receivable balance, was 54% represented by two customers at June 30, 2020 and 51% represented by two customers at June
30, 2019.
Export sales in fiscal years 2020 and
2019 were approximately $2,077,000 and $2,638,000, respectively.
Note 10.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
The Company sponsors a leveraged
employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP") that covers all nonunion employees who work 1,000 or more hours per year and
are employed on June 30. The Company makes annual contributions to the ESOP equal to the ESOP's debt service less dividends on
unallocated shares received by the ESOP. All dividends on unallocated shares received by the ESOP are used to pay debt service.
Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings. As the debt is repaid, shares are released
and allocated to active employees, based on the proportion of debt service paid in the year. The Company accounts for its ESOP
in accordance with FASB ASC 718-40. Accordingly, the shares purchased by the ESOP are reported as Unearned ESOP Shares in the statement
of financial position. As shares are released or committed-to-be-released, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the
current average market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings-per-share (EPS) computations. ESOP compensation
expense was $305,006 and $390,369 for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The ESOP shares as of June 30, 2020
and 2019 were as follows:

2020, the Company repurchased 2,180 shares previously held in the ESOP for $47,949. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2019
the Company repurchased 1,810 shares previously held by the ESOP for $44,888.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan, Continued
The ESOP allows for eligible participants
to take whole share distributions from the plan on specific dates in accordance with the provision of the plan. Share distributions
from the ESOP during the twelve months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled 2,180 shares and 17,279 shares, respectively.
It is the Company’s intention
to continue the program with an additional purchase of shares by the ESOP from the Company in fiscal 2021.
Note 11. Stock-based Compensation
The Company follows ASC 718 in establishing
standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, as well
as transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the
entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. ASC 718 requires that the
cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements based on the fair value of the
share-based payment. ASC 718 establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment transactions
with employees, except for equity instruments held by employee share ownership plans.
Total stock-based compensation expense recognized
in the statements of comprehensive income for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $189,639 and $172,148, respectively,
before income taxes. The amount of this stock-based compensation expense related to non-qualified stock options (“NQSO”)
for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $50,075 and $44,780, respectively. The deferred tax benefit related to the
NQSO’s as of June 30, 2020 and 2019 was approximately $10,516 and $9,404, respectively. The remaining stock option expense
in each year related to incentive stock options (“ISO”) which are not deductible by the corporation when exercised,
assuming a qualifying disposition and as such no deferred tax benefit was established related to these amounts.
As of June 30, 2020, there was approximately
$147,324 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock option awards that is expected to be recognized as expense over the
next 1.5 years, of which $40,970 relates to NQSO’s and $106,354 relates to ISO’s. The total deferred tax benefit related
the NQSO’s in future years will be approximately $8,604.
The Company has one employee stock option
plan under which options or stock awards may be granted, the 2017 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the "2017
Plan"), approved by the Company's shareholders at the Company's Annual Meeting on December 1, 2017. The Board of
Directors may grant options to acquire shares of common stock to employees and non-employee directors of the Company at the
fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock subject to
options or awards to non-employee directors is 133,000 and the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock subject to
options or awards granted to non-employee directors during any single fiscal year is the lesser of 13,300 and 33 1/3% of the
total number of shares subject to options or awards granted in such fiscal year. The maximum number of shares subject to
options or awards granted to any individual employee may not exceed 15,000 in a fiscal year. Generally, options granted have
a two-year vesting period based on two years of continuous service and have a ten-year contractual life. Option grants
provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control. Shares issued upon the exercise of options are from those
held in Treasury. Options covering 400,000 shares are authorized for issuance under the 2017 plan, of which 164,329 have been
granted as of June 30, 2020. While no further grants of options may be made under the Company’s 2007 Stock Option and
Restricted Stock Plan, as of June 30, 2020, 136,150 options were outstanding under such plan of which all are vested and
exercisable.
ASC 718 requires the use of a valuation
model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option valuation model,
which incorporates various assumptions including those for volatility, expected life, and interest rates.
The table below outlines the weighted average
assumptions that the Company used to calculate the fair value of each option award for the year ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Note 12. Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts
receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. At times such investments may
be in excess of FDIC insurance limits. As disclosed in Note 9, a significant portion of the Company's business is the production
of military and industrial electronic equipment for use by the U.S. and foreign governments and certain industrial customers. The
related accounts receivable balance, as a percentage of the Company's total trade accounts receivable balance, was 53.9% represented
by two customers at June 30, 2020 and 46.2% represented by one customer at June 30, 2019.
Although the Company's exposure to credit
risk associated with nonpayment of these concentrated balances is affected by the conditions or occurrences within the U.S. and
foreign governments, the Company believes that its trade accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited. The Company performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customer's financial conditions and requires collateral, such as progress payments, in certain
circumstances. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific
customers, historical trends and other information.
Note 13. Related Parties
The administration of the shares of
common stock held by the ESOP Trust is subject to the Amended and Restated Plan and a Trust Agreement, each effective as of July
1, 2016. The Trustees’ rights with respect to the disposition of shares are governed by the terms of the Plan and the Trust
Agreement. As to shares that have been allocated to the accounts of participants in the ESOP Trust, the Plan provides that the
Trustees are required to vote such shares in accordance with instructions received from the participants. As to unallocated shares
and allocated shares for which voting instructions have not been received from participants, the Plan provides that the Trustees
are required to vote such shares in accordance with the direction of the Board of Directors of the Company under the terms of the
Plan and Trust Agreement. See Note 10 for additional information regarding the ESOP.
Note 14.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company at certain times enters into standby
letters of credit agreements with financial institutions primarily relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts.
Contingent liabilities on outstanding standby letters of credit agreements aggregated to zero at June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company,
as a U.S. Government contractor, is subject to audits, reviews, and investigations by the U.S. Government related to its negotiation
and performance of government contracts and its accounting for such contracts. Failure to comply with applicable U.S. Government
standards by a contractor may result in suspension from eligibility for award of any new government contract and a guilty plea
or conviction may result in debarment from eligibility for awards. The government may, in certain cases, also terminate existing
contracts, recover damages, and impose other sanctions and penalties. As a result of contract audits the Company will determine
a range of possible outcomes and in accordance with ASC 450 “Contingencies” the Company will accrue amounts within
a range that appears to be its best estimate of a possible outcome. Adjustments are made to accruals, if any, periodically based
on current information.
We are
party to various litigation matters and claims arising from time to time in the ordinary course of business. While
the results of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the final outcome of such matters will not
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Currently,
there are no matters pending.

Not included in this computation of earnings
per share for the year ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were options to purchase 276,712 and 196,039 shares, respectively, of the Company’s
common stock. These options were excluded because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive due to the average strike price
exceeding the average market price of those shares.
The Company paid regular cash dividends
on common stock of $1.00 per share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 and paid regular cash dividends on common stock of $1.00
per share and a special cash dividend of $1.00 per share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The Board of Directors has authorized
the payment of a fiscal year 2021 first quarter regular dividend of $0.25 payable October 14, 2020 to shareholders of record on
October 5, 2020. Our Board of Directors assesses the Company’s dividend policy periodically. There is no assurance that the
Board of Directors will maintain the amount of the regular cash dividend or declare a special dividend during any future years.
