NOTE C – COSTS AND ESTIMATED EARNINGS IN EXCESS OF BILLINGS, NET

At ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019~~2020 and April 30, 2019, costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, net, consisted of the following:

	July 31, 2019			April 30, 2019			January 31, 2020			April 30, 2019

Such amounts represent revenue recognized on long-term contracts that had not been billed at the balance sheet dates or represent a liability for amounts billed in excess of the revenue recognized. Amounts are billed to customers pursuant to contract terms, whereas the related revenue is recognized on the basis of costs incurred relative to the total expected costs, or percentage of completion (“POC”) ~~basis~~, at the measurement date. In general, the recorded amounts will be billed and collected or revenue recognized within twelve months of the balance sheet date. Revenue on these long-term contracts is accounted for on the POC ~~basis.~~basis as defined above. During the nine and three months ended ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019 and 2018,~~2020, revenue recognized under POC contracts was approximately ~~$11.5~~$28.5 million and ~~$9.3~~$8.5 million, respectively. During the nine and three months ended January 31, 2019, revenue recognized under POC contracts was approximately $33.3 million and $12.9 million, respectively. If contract losses are anticipated, ~~costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings are reduced for~~ the full amount of such losses are recorded in the loss provision accrual on the condensed consolidated balance sheets when they are determinable. Contract losses ~~of approximately $314,000 were recorded~~recognized for the nine and three months ended ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019.~~2020 were approximately $2.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

NOTE F – RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS AND LEASE LIABILITIES

The Company’s leases primarily represent offices, warehouses, vehicles, and manufacturing and research and development facilities which expire at various times through 2029 and are generally operating leases. Contractual arrangements are evaluated at inception to determine if the agreement contains a lease. Certain lease agreements contain renewal options, rent abatement, and escalation clauses that are factored into our determination of lease payments when appropriate. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recorded based on the present value of future lease payments which will factor in certain qualifying initial direct costs incurred as well as any lease incentives that may have been received. Lease expenses for operating lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease terms may factor in options to extend or terminate the lease.

The Company elected the practical expedient for short-term leases which allows leases with terms of twelve months or less to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term without being recognized on the balance sheet.

Effective May 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02. The table below presents ROU assets and liabilities recorded on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet related to ASU 2016-02 as follows:

	Classification	July 31, 2019		Classification	January 31, 2020

Total lease liabilities	Total lease liabilities	$	12,076	Total lease liabilities	$	11,638

Total operating lease expense was approximately $1.5 million and $504,000 for the nine and three months, respectively, ended ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the majority of which is included in cost of revenues and the remaining amount in selling and administrative expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated ~~statement~~statements of operations. There were no new leases entered into for the current period ended ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019.~~2020. Net non-cash operating activities related to leases was approximately ~~$236,000~~$441,000 for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

As of ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the weighted-average remaining lease term for all operating leases was ~~8.9~~8.5 years. The Company does not generally have access to the rate implicit in the leases and therefore utilized the Company’s borrowing rate as the discount rate. The weighted average discount rate for operating leases as of ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019~~2020 was ~~6.16%~~6.18%.

NOTE G – SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates under two reportable segments based on the geographic locations of its subsidiaries:

(1)

FEI-NY – operates out of New York and its operations consist principally of precision time and frequency control products used in three principal markets: satellites (both commercial and U.S. Government-funded); terrestrial cellular telephone or other ground-based telecommunication stations; and other components and systems for the U.S. military.

The FEI-NY segment also includes the operations of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, FEI-Elcom. FEI-Elcom, in addition to its own product line, provides design and technical support for the FEI-NY segment’s satellite business.

(2)

FEI-Zyfer – operates out of California and its products incorporate Global Positioning System (GPS) technologies into systems and subsystems for secure communications, both government and commercial, and other locator applications. FEI-Zyfer’s products also incorporate precision time references for terrestrial secure communications and command and control, and frequency products that incorporate GPS. FEI-Zyfer’s GPS capability complements the Company’s existing technologies and permits the combined entities to provide a broader range of embedded systems for a variety of timing functions and anti-spoofing (“SAASM”) applications.

The Company measures segment performance based on total revenues and profits generated by each geographic location rather than on the specific types of customers or end-users. Consequently, the Company determined that the segments indicated above most appropriately reflect the way the Company’s management views the business.

The accounting policies of the two segments are the same as those described in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the ~~Company’s Annual Report on~~2019 Form ~~10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019, filed on July 26, 2019 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.~~10-K. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on operating profit which is defined as income before investment income, interest expense and taxes. All acquired assets, including intangible assets, are included in the assets of both reporting segments.

The Company regularly reviews its investment portfolio to identify and evaluate investments that have indications of possible impairment. The Company does not believe that its investments in marketable securities with unrealized losses at ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019~~2020 were other-than-temporary due to market volatility of the security’s fair value, analysts’ expectations, and the Company’s ability to hold the securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recoveries in market value.

~~During the three months ended July 31, 2019, the Company sold or redeemed available-for-sale securities of approximately $750,000, realizing gains of approximately $1,000.~~

The fair value accounting framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

	Level 1	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

	Level 2	Inputs to the valuation methodology include: -Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; -Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; -Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and -Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

	Level 3	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. All of the Company’s investments in marketable securities are valued on a Level 1 basis.

NOTE J – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) (“ASU 2018-13”) which modifies the disclosure requirement on fair value measurements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, the update will have on its financial statements when adopted in fiscal year 2021.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under ASU 2017-04 goodwill impairment will be tested by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The new guidance must be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company will not be adopting ASU 2017-04 early, and is in the process of determining the effect that ASU 2017-04 may have. However, the Company expects the new standard to have an immaterial effect on its financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ~~The new guidance is~~In November 2019 the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates, which defers the effective ~~for~~date of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, ~~2019.~~2022.

Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

Leases (Topic 842)

In the first quarter of fiscal 2020 the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) and recognized on its ~~Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets~~condensed consolidated balance sheets $12.1 million of lease liabilities with corresponding ROU assets for operating leases. The Company elected a prospective application for the new guidance, as permitted under ASU 2016-02, and therefore prior periods continue to be presented in accordance with Topic 840. We also elected the package of practical expedients, which among other things, does not require reassessment of lease classification.

NOTE K – CREDIT FACILITY

As of ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had available credit at variable terms based on its securities holdings under an advisory arrangement, under which no borrowings have been made.

NOTE L – VALUATION ALLOWANCE ON DEFERRED TAX ASSETS

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, which will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future.

As required by the authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes, we evaluate the realizability of deferred tax assets on a jurisdictional basis at each reporting date. We consider all positive and negative evidence, including the reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. Accounting for income taxes requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In circumstances where there is sufficient negative evidence indicating that the deferred tax assets will not be realizable, we establish a valuation allowance. As of ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, and April 30, 2019, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. If these estimates and assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to adjust its existing valuation allowance resulting in changes to deferred income tax expense.

NOTE M – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On January 28, 2020, Martin B. Bloch, the former Chief Scientist of the Company and a current member of the Company’s Board, filed a complaint against the Company and Jonathan Brolin, Lance W. Lord, Russell M. Sarachek, Richard Schwartz and Stanton D. Sloane, each in their capacity as members of the Board (collectively, the “Director Defendants”), in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau (Bloch v. Frequency Electronics, Inc., et al., Index No. 601369/2020 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. filed Jan. 28, 2020)). Mr. Bloch seeks a declaratory judgment, compensatory damages and costs and attorney’s fees, among other things, based on allegations that he was wrongfully terminated “for cause” pursuant to his employment agreement, dated March 17, 2008, and his deferred compensation agreements, in each case as amended, with the Company, that the Company’s Form 8-K, filed January 27, 2020, damaged his reputation and that the Company discriminated against him based on his age. Mr. Bloch also asserts a claim derivatively on behalf of the Company that the Director Defendants breached their fiduciary duty in rendering their decision to terminate Mr. Bloch’s employment with the Company. The Company and the Director Defendants are scheduled to file their responsive pleading by March 30, 2020. The Court has not yet scheduled any hearings or other deadlines in connection with the lawsuit. The Company and the Director Defendants believe that the Board was justified in its decision to terminate Mr. Bloch “for cause” and that Mr. Bloch’s complaint is entirely without merit. The Company intends to vigorously defend against all of Mr. Bloch’s allegations. At this early stage in the case, the Company does not have sufficient information to determine whether liability, if any, arising out of these matters is probable or the possible loss, if any, that could result from an unfavorable outcome arising out of these matters.

The Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the ~~Company’s Annual Report on~~2019 Form ~~10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019, filed on July 26, 2019 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.~~10-K. The Company believes its most critical accounting policies to be the recognition of revenue and costs on production contracts, income taxes, and the valuation of inventory. Each of these areas requires the Company to make use of reasoned estimates including estimating the cost to complete a contract, the realizable value of its inventory and the market value of its products. Changes in estimates can have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The Company’s significant accounting policies did not change during the nine and three months ended ~~July~~January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, except for those impacted by the newly adopted accounting standard regarding leases.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied, when the expected goods or services are transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. A performance obligation is a distinct product or service that is transferred to the customer’s control based on the contract. The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation and is recognized as revenue upon satisfaction of that performance obligation. The Company derives revenue either as (i) units with specifications and frequencies that can be used by multiple customers (POT) or (ii) units with specific specifications and frequencies that are used by a specific customer or for government end use (POC).

Revenues under larger, long-term contracts which generally require billings based on achievement of milestones rather than delivery of product, are reported in operating results using the POC method. On fixed-price contracts, which are typical for commercial and U.S. Government satellite programs and other long-term U.S. Government projects, and which require initial design and development of the product, revenue is recognized on the cost-to-cost method. Under this method, revenue is recorded based upon the ratio that incurred costs bear to total estimated contract costs with related cost of sales recorded as the costs are incurred. Each month management reviews estimated contract costs through a process of aggregating actual costs incurred and estimating additional costs to completion based upon the current available information and status of the contract. ~~The effect of any change in~~In situations where the estimated ~~gross margin rate (“GM Rate”) for~~costs to complete a ~~contract~~project are revised, revenue earned to date is ~~reflected in revenues in the period in which the change is known.~~adjusted on a prospective basis. Provisions for the full amount of anticipated losses on contracts are made in the period in which they become determinable.

Table of Contents

FREQUENCY ELECTRONICS, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES

(Continued)

On production-type orders, revenue is recorded as units are delivered with the related cost of sales recognized on each shipment based upon a percentage of estimated final program costs. Changes in job performance on long-term contracts and production-type orders may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which revisions are determined to be required. Provisions for anticipated losses on customer orders are made in the period in which they become determinable.

For customer orders in the Company’s FEI-Zyfer segment or smaller contracts or orders in the FEI-NY segment, sales of products and services to customers are reported in operating results based upon (i) shipment of the product or (ii) performance of the services pursuant to terms of the customer order which then transfers control of the performance obligation to the customer. When payment is contingent upon customer acceptance of the installed product, revenue is deferred until such installation is completed and acceptance is received.

Costs and Expenses

Contract costs include all direct material costs, direct labor costs, manufacturing overhead and other direct costs related to contract performance. Selling, general and administrative costs are expensed as incurred, with the exception of sales commissions with an amortization period of greater than one year which are amortized over the length of the contract in relation to the adoption of ASU 2014-09.

Inventory

In accordance with industry practice, inventoried costs contain amounts relating to contracts and programs with long production cycles, a portion of which will not be realized within one year. Inventory write-downs are established for slow-moving, obsolete items and costs incurred on programs for which production-level orders cannot be determined as probable. Such write-downs are based upon management’s experience and expectations for future business. Any changes arising from revised expectations are reflected in cost of revenues in the period the revision is made.

Marketable Securities

All of the Company’s investments in marketable securities are Level 1 securities which trade on public markets and have current prices that are readily available. In general, investments in fixed income securities are limited to the commercial paper of financially sound corporations or the bonds and shorter-term notes of U.S. Government agencies. Although the value of such investments may fluctuate significantly based on economic factors, the Company’s own financial strength enables it to wait for the securities to either recover their value or to mature such that any interim unrealized gains or losses are deemed to be temporary.
