(UNAUDITED)
June 30, 2002
Note 1 — Basis for Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2002. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2001.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts 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. Eventual results may differ from these estimates.
Note 2 — Per Share Amounts and Stock Split

Note 4 — Change in Accounting
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements.
As allowed by early adoption provisions, the Company began applying the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets effective October 1, 2001. The following table presents a reconciliation of net income and per share data to what would have been reported had the new rules been in effect during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2001 (in thousands, except per share data):

Note 5 — New Accounting Pronouncement
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (FAS 144), Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. FAS 144 establishes a single model to account for impairment of assets to be held or disposed, incorporating guidelines for accounting and disclosure of discontinued operations. FAS 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and, generally, its provisions are to be applied prospectively. Management believes the impact on the financial statements of the Company will be immaterial.

Note 8 — Business Segment Information
Business segment financial data is as follows (in millions). Certain prior year costs related to the development of smart card technology have been reclassified from other profit to the transportation systems segment to conform to current year classification. The effect of this change was to decrease transportation systems operating profit and increase other profit by approximately $1,100,000 and $400,000 for the nine months and three months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
June 30, 2002
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical matters, this report contains forward-looking statements. They can be identified by words such as may, likely, anticipate, hope, estimate, plan, potential, promising, feel, expect, should, and confident. These forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties which may affect the Company’s business and prospects. These include the effects of politics on negotiations and business dealings with government entities, reductions in defense budgets, economic conditions in the various countries in which the Company does or hopes to do business, competition and technology changes in the defense and transportation industries, and other competitive and technological factors.
Results of Operations
Sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2002 were approximately 11% higher than for the same period in fiscal 2001, as the result of higher sales in both the defense and transportation systems segments. Transportation systems sales for the third quarter were up significantly from the prior year, while sales in the defense segment increased only slightly in the quarter.
Transportation segment sales increased in the current year due to an increase in work on contracts in North America which had been awarded to the Company in previous quarters and due to an increase in activity on the Prestige project in London. These sales increases in the quarter and for the first nine months of the fiscal year more than offset lower sales from contracts in the Far East.
As discussed the last two quarters, the Company acquired a new facility south of London in order to gain greater efficiency by bringing operations in the region together into one facility. This new building is currently being outfitted and is expected to be occupied by the end of the calendar year. In connection with this consolidation of operations, the Company recorded a provision of $900,000 in the first quarter for severance costs related to the planned closing of a facility in western England. Of this amount, approximately $300,000 was expended during the quarter ended June 30, 2002, bringing the total spent to date to $450,000. Management believes the balance of $450,000 will be adequate to cover the remaining costs of this facility closure.
Operating profits in the transportation segment were higher for both the third quarter and the first nine months of the year. Higher sales volume contributed to increased profits in the third quarter, although the increase was somewhat offset by legal costs incurred in connection with the Company’s dispute of a contract tender in Australia. For the first nine months of the year, higher operating profits resulted from the higher sales volume, but were partially offset by the legal costs and the severance costs mentioned above.

CUBIC CORPORATION
ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — continued
June 30, 200
The increase in defense segment sales for the third quarter and first nine months of the year resulted primarily from continued growth of the Company’s defense service businesses, both computerized battlefield simulation and operations and maintenance. In addition, new multiple integrated laser engagement system (WLES) contracts won in the past year added to the growth of the segment. Increased operating profits in the segment resulted from the above sales increases, in addition to higher profit margins from communications and MILES products.
Selling, general and administrative costs were higher for both the third quarter and for the first nine months of the year, primarily due to an increase in selling costs and the legal costs mentioned above. Selling costs increased in both segments as the Company pursued new transportation systems opportunities, especially in Europe, and increased its efforts to obtain new defense business as well.
Other profits in the first nine months were higher last year than in the current year, primarily as a result of the sale of certain marketable securities at a profit last year. Lower interest rates on the Company’s cash investments also contributed to the reduction of other profits this year.
Total backlog, including un-funded customer orders, increased to $1,180,000,000 at June 30, 2002, compared to $1,095,000,000 at September 30, 2001 and $1,092,000,000 at June 30, 2001. Included in the above amounts was funded backlog of $822,000,000 at June 30, 2002, $738,000,000 at September 30, 2001 and $745,000,000 at June 30, 2001.
Critical Accounting Policies. Estimates and .Judgments
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts 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. Management continually evaluates its estimates and judgments, the most critical of which are those related to revenue recognition, costs to complete contracts, valuation of goodwill and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Eventual results may differ from these estimates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating activities for the first nine months of the year resulted in positive cash flows, however, growth in long-term contract accounts receivable and inventories during the period had the effect of limiting operating cash flows. These increases in receivables and inventories represent normal fluctuations due to the timing of customer payments and the transfer of inventoried costs to contracts and also reflect the growth in revenues during the year. Although cash flows from operations are not expected to pick up significantly for the remainder of the fiscal year, the Company expects that cash flows from operations will increase in the next fiscal year.
The building acquisition mentioned above was the primary use of cash from investing activities during the first nine months of the fiscal year. The only significant financing activity was the payment of a semi-annual cash dividend to shareholders in the second quarter.
The Company’s financial condition remains strong with working capital of $196 million and a current ratio of 3.1 at June 30, 2002. The Company expects that cash on hand and its unused debt capacity will be adequate to meet its working capital requirements for the foreseeable future.
