Item 1. Business.

General

Video Display Corporation (the “Company”) is a world-class provider and manufacturer of video products, components, and systems for data display and presentation of electronic information media in various requirements and environments. The Company designs, engineers, manufactures, markets, distributes and installs technologically advanced display products and systems, from basic components to turnkey systems for government, military, aerospace, medical and commercial organizations. The Company also acts as a facilitator and wholesale distributor of parts and accessories for various original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) of consumer products. The Company’s call center acts as a consumer and dealer support center for in-warranty and out-of-warranty household products, appliances, parts and accessories for various electronics manufacturers. This call center also acts as a technical support center for the same manufacturers. The Company markets its products worldwide primarily from facilities located in the United States and several sales and service agents located worldwide. Please read the comments under the caption “Forward looking statements and risk factors” in Item 1A Risk Factors of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Description of Principal Business

The Company generates revenues from the manufacturing and distribution of displays and display components (“Display Segment”) (71% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2010) as well as the wholesale distribution of consumer electronic parts from foreign and domestic manufacturers (“Wholesale Distribution Segment”) (29% of consolidated net sales in 2010). Substantially all of the Company’s income before income taxes was derived from the Display Segment of the business in fiscal 2010. See Note 12. “Segment Information” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Sales, by category of product, of the Display Segment for fiscal 2010 are comprised of the following:

Monitors (84%)
Data Display CRTs (14%)
Entertainment CRTs (1%)
Component Parts (1%)

A more detailed discussion of sales by category of product is included under the section entitled “Principal Products in Display Segment.”

The Company’s manufacturing and distribution facilities are located in Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, New York, Illinois, Kentucky, in addition to several sales and service agents located worldwide.

The Wholesale Distribution Segment, operated under the Fox International Ltd name, is headquartered in Bedford Heights, Ohio with additional distribution centers in Buffalo, New York and Richardson, Texas.

The Company continues to explore opportunities to expand its product offerings in the display industry. The Company anticipates that this expansion will be achieved by adding new products or by acquiring existing companies that would enhance the Company’s position in the display industry. Management continually evaluates product trends externally in the industry and internally in divisions in which the Company operates. Overall trends are discussed herein under “Flat Panel and Other Technology.” During the last three years, the Company expended significant research and development funds (approximately $1.0 million in fiscal 2010) in high-resolution projection displays, active matrix

liquid crystal display (“AMLCD”) technologies, and infrared imaging (“IR”) for commercial and military applications.

Segment Information

This information is provided in Note 12. “Segment Information” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Principal Products In Display Segment

Monitors

The Company’s monitor operations are conducted in Phelps, New York (Z-Axis); Birdsboro, Pennsylvania (Aydin); Cape Canaveral, Florida (Display Systems); and Lexington, Kentucky (Lexel).

This portion of the Company’s operations, which contributed approximately 60% of fiscal 2010 consolidated net sales, involves the design, engineering, and manufacture of complete monochrome, color monitor, and projector display units using new CRTs or flat panel displays. The Company will customize these units for specific applications, including ruggedization for military uses or size reduction due to space limitations in industrial and medical applications. Because of the Company’s flexible and cost efficient manufacturing, it is able to handle low volume orders that generate higher margins.

This portion of the Company’s operations targets niche markets where competition from major multinational electronics companies tends to be lower. The prime customers for these products include defense, security, training, and simulation areas of the United States of America and foreign militaries as well as the major defense contractors such as the Boeing Company, L-3 Communications Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, and others. These defense contractors utilize the Company’s products for ruggedized mission critical applications such as shipboard and nuclear submarines. Flight simulator displays are also produced to provide a full range of flight training simulations for military applications. The primary components for the ruggedized product line consist of projection systems, CRT and flat panel displays, circuit boards and machine parts. Through the EDL product lines, the Company offers an additional line of Air Traffic Control (ATC) displays.

Although most monitors are customized to meet a customer’s specifications, all monitors sold include the following general components: CRT or flat panel displays, circuit boards, and machine parts. Most of the Company’s monitors are then ruggedized, which allows them to withstand adverse conditions, such as extreme temperature, depth, altitude, and vibration.

The Company anticipates that AMLCD and Plasma Display products, due to their lower space and power requirements, will eventually become the display of choice in many display applications. The significance of this continuing trend has had an effect on the Display Segment of the Company. In anticipation of long-term trends toward flat panel display usage, the Company has focused its efforts as well as its acquisition strategy toward flat panel technologies for niche market applications in the medical, simulation, training and military markets. Other types of technology, including high-definition television (“HDTV”), have not had a significant impact on the Company’s business. HDTV utilizes both CRT and flat panel technology and, therefore, has potential positive effects on the Company due to anticipated higher margin CRT replacements. There will be long-term negative effects, as the HDTV market moves toward greater flat panel utilization, on the Company’s CRT business, but the impact is not anticipated to be significant as the consumer television replacement market currently accounts for less than 1% of overall Company revenues. The Company will continue to monitor these trends and adjust its CRT inventory levels and operating facilities to reflect changes in demand.

Data Display CRTs and Entertainment CRTs

Since its organization in 1975, the Company has been engaged in the distribution and manufacture of CRTs using new and recycled CRT glass bulbs, primarily in the replacement market, for use in data display screens, including computer terminal monitors, medical monitoring equipment and various other data display applications and in television sets. The Company currently markets CRTs in over 3,000 types and sizes.

The Company’s CRT manufacturing operations of new and recycled CRTs are conducted at facilities located in White Mills, Pennsylvania (Chroma); Bossier City, Louisiana (Novatron); Lexington, Kentucky (Lexel); Loves Park, Illinois (Clinton); and Birdsboro, Pennsylvania (Aydin). The Company’s Tucker, Georgia location is the Company’s primary distribution point for data display CRTs purchased from outside sources.

The Company maintains the capability of manufacturing a full range of monochrome CRTs as well as remanufacturing color CRTs from recycled glass. In addition, our Aydin and Lexel operations manufacture a wide range of radar, infrared, camera and direct-view storage tubes for military and security applications. All CRTs manufactured by the Company are tested for quality in accordance with standards approved by United Laboratories.

The Company also distributes new CRTs and other electronic tubes purchased from original manufacturers, both domestic and international. The Company forecasts its inventory requirements for six months to one year. Occasionally, manufacturers offer large quantities of overstocked original manufactured tubes at significant price reductions. The Company acquires these tubes when the existing replacement market appears to demonstrate adequate future demand and the purchase price allows a reasonable profit for the risk. Due to the extended time frame for the replacement market to develop (five to seven years), these purchased inventories sometimes do not sell as quickly as other inventories. Bulk CRT purchases have declined over the past few years as the Company is managing current inventory levels against the anticipated reduction in future CRT demand due to the growth of flat panel technology.

The Company maintains an internal sales organization to sell directly to OEMs and their service organizations and markets its products through approximately 75 independent wholesale electronics distributors located throughout the U.S.

In addition to factors affecting the overall market for such products, the Company’s sales volume in the CRT replacement markets is dependent upon the Company’s ability to provide prompt response to customers’ orders, while maintaining quality control and competitive pricing. The Company’s CRT manufacturing activities are scheduled primarily based upon current customer demands and projected future customer needs.

Component Parts

The Company, through its Tucker, Georgia based electron gun manufacturing subsidiary, Southwest Vacuum Devices Inc, manufactures electron gun assemblies comprised of small metal, glass and ceramic parts. The assembly process is highly labor intensive. While the particular electron guns being sold are of the Company’s own design, most are replacements for electron guns previously designed for original equipment CRTs used in television sets and computer monitors. Raw materials consist of glass and metal stamped parts.

Although Southwest Vacuum markets its products to independent customers, the majority of electron guns produced by the Company are consumed internally among the Company’s own CRT manufacturing facilities. Sales to these related divisions, which have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements, amounted to approximately $234,000 and $480,000 for fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Principal Products in Wholesale Distribution Segment

Fox International purchases consumer electronic parts of numerous major consumer electronics manufacturers, both foreign and domestic. This subsidiary resells these products to major electronic distributors, retail electronic repair facilities, third-party contractual repair shops, and directly to consumers. In its relationship with consumer electronic manufacturers, Fox International receives the right, often exclusively, to ship parts to authorized dealers. Many of the manufacturers also direct inquiries for replacement parts to Fox International. Manufacturers require a distributor to stock their most popular parts and monitor the order fill ratio to ensure that their customers have access to sufficient replacement parts. Fox International attempts to maintain high fill ratios in order to secure favored distributor status from the manufacturers, requiring a significant investment in inventories. Fox International operates a call center as a consumer and dealer support center for both in-warranty and out-of-warranty household products, appliances, parts and electronics for Black & Decker, Delonghi, Norelco, Coby, and numerous other manufacturers. This call center also performs as a technical support center for the same manufacturers and processes all orders for distribution of the consumer electronic parts.

Patents and Trademarks

The Company is currently in the process of applying for patents on newly developed products and technology and holds patents with respect to certain products and services. The Company also sells products under various trademarks and trade names. Additionally, the Company licenses certain electronic technology to other manufacturing companies, which generated royalty revenues of approximately $258,000 and $109,000 in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company believes that its patents and trademarks are of value, and intends to protect its rights when, in its view, these rights are infringed upon. The Company’s key patents expire in 2014. The Company believes that success in its industry primarily will be dependent upon incorporating emerging technology into new product line introductions, frequent product enhancements, and customer support and service.

Seasonal Variations in Business

Historically, there has not been seasonal variability in the Company’s business.

Working Capital Practices

The Company has a Loan and Security Agreement with RBC Bank to provide a $17 million line of credit to the Company and a $3.5 million line of credit to the Company’s subsidiary Fox International, Ltd. These lines are used primarily for the purchases of inventory and payments of accounts payable.

Concentration of Customers

The Company sells to a variety of domestic and international customers on an open-unsecured account basis. These customers principally operate in the medical, military, industrial and avionics industries. The Company’s Display Segment had direct and indirect net sales to the U.S. government, primarily the Department of Defense for training and simulation programs that comprised approximately 37% and 40% of Display Segment net sales and 26% and 28% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. Sales to foreign customers were 11% and 13% of consolidated net sales for fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company’s Wholesale Distribution Segment had net sales to two customers that comprised approximately 34% and 30% of that segment’s net sales in fiscal 2010 and 2009 respectively. The Company attempts to minimize credit risk by reviewing customers’ credit history before extending credit, and by monitoring customers’ credit exposure on a daily basis. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

Backlog

The Company’s backlog is comprised of undelivered, firm customer orders, which are scheduled to ship within eighteen months. The Company’s backlog was approximately $31.9 million at February 28, 2010 and $17.8 million at February 28, 2009. The Company’s Lexel division, which is in the Display Segment, comprised $10.1 million or 32% and $10.2 million or 57% of the 2010 and 2009 backlog, respectively. It is anticipated that more than 95% of the February 28, 2010 backlog will ship during fiscal 2011.

Government Contracts

The Company, primarily through its Aydin, Lexel, and Display Systems subsidiaries, had contracts with the U.S. government (principally the Department of Defense and Department of Defense subcontractors) which generated net sales of approximately $18.6 million and $20.0 million for fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company’s costs and earnings in excess of billings on these contracts were approximately $4.1 million at February 28, 2010 and $1.4 million at February 28, 2009. The Company had billings in excess of costs and earnings on these contracts of a nominal amount at February 28, 2010 and at February 28, 2009. These contracts are typically less than twelve months in duration and specify a delivery schedule for units ordered. Most of these government contracts specify a designated number of units to be delivered at a specified price, rather than on a cost plus basis. These contracts are subject to government audit to ensure conformity with design specifications.

Environmental Matters

The Company’s operations are subject to federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to the generation, storage, handling, emission, transportation, and discharge of materials into the environment. The costs of complying with environmental protection laws and regulations have not had a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations in the past and are not expected to have a material adverse impact in the foreseeable future.

Research and Development

The objectives of the Company’s research and development activities are to increase efficiency and quality in its manufacturing and assembly operations and to enhance its existing product line by developing alternative product applications to existing display systems and electron optic technology. The Company continues its research and development in advanced infrared imaging (“IR”) for commercial and military applications. The Company has funded additional IR research in partnership with the University of Rhode Island. The Company believes that potential future markets for IR include military and security surveillance, target acquisition, fire fighting, and industrial and medical thermography. The Company includes research and development expenditures in the consolidated financial statements as a part of general and administrative costs. Research and development costs were approximately $1.0 million and $1.3 million in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Employees

As of February 28, 2010, the Company employed 440 persons on a full time basis. Of these, 131 were employed in executive, administrative, and clerical positions, 117 were employed in sales and distribution, and 192 were employed in manufacturing operations. The Company believes its employee relations to be satisfactory.

Competition

The Company believes that it has a competitive advantage in the display industry due to its ability to engineer custom display solutions for a variety of industrial and military applications, its ability to provide internally produced component parts, and its manufacturing flexibility. As a result, the Company can offer more customization in the design and engineering of new products. With the operations of

Aydin Displays, Lexel Imaging and Display Systems, the Company has become one of the leading suppliers within the specialty display markets.

The Company utilizes flat panel displays in many of its monitor units. These flat panels are purchased from OEMs. The net sales generated in fiscal 2010 from products utilizing flat panel technology were $11.1 million as compared to $10.6 million in Fiscal 2009. Since a significant portion of the Company’s revenues is generated from the replacement market, the Company has the opportunity to see trends in OEM sales, and while the growth in flat panel products is outpacing growth in CRT products, the CRT market remains a quite viable market for its products. As trends continue to become more defined, and replacement of these products occurs in five to seven years, the Company foresees a bigger impact and utilization of flat panel products in its business. There is competition in the area of flat panel technology and the Company will strive to rely on its ability to adapt and incorporate designs into its future products so that it may compete in a profitable manner. Currently, the flat panel market is made up of many competitors of various sizes, none holding a dominant position in the flat panel marketplace.

Compared to domestic manufacturing prices on new CRTs, the Company’s prices are competitive due to lower manufacturing costs associated with recycling the glass portion of previously used tubes, which the Company obtains at a fraction of the cost of new glass. The Company has to date been able to maintain competitive pricing with respect to imported CRTs because, generally, the CRT replacement market is characterized by customers requiring a variety of types of CRTs in quantities not large enough to absorb the additional transportation costs incurred by foreign CRT manufacturers.

The Company believes it has a competitive advantage and is the sole source in providing many of its CRTs to the customer base of its Aydin and Lexel subsidiaries as these operations have been providing reliable products and services to these customers for more than 30 years. Lexel manufactures a broad range of CRT and direct view storage tube (“DVST”) solutions used in military, industrial, and commercial applications, including Avionics, Projection, Medical and general-purpose displays. Aydin offers a wide range of high performance imaging devices and high resolution CRTs for medical, X-ray, infrared, military, and aerospace applications.

The Company is a wholesale distributor of original equipment CRTs purchased from other manufacturers and produces its own CRTs at its Clinton manufacturing facility. The Company believes it is the only company that offers complete service in replacement markets with its manufacturing and recycling capabilities. The Company’s ability to compete effectively in this market is dependent upon its continued ability to respond promptly to customer orders and to offer competitive pricing.

The Company’s competition in the Wholesale Distribution Segment comes primarily from other parts distributors. Many of these distributors are smaller than Fox International but a few are of equal or greater revenue size. Prices for major manufacturers’ products can be directly affected by the manufacturers’ suggested resale price. The Company believes that its service to customers and warehousing and shipping network give it a competitive advantage. Fox International sells a wide variety of electronic parts and accessories, including semiconductors, resistors, audio/video parts, and batteries. In addition, Fox International operates a call center that serves as both a consumer and dealer support center for household products, parts and accessories, as well as serving as a technical support center for these products.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Forward looking statements and risk factors

All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this report, including, without limitation, those statements contained in Item 1, are statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended and Section 21E

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “predict”, “believe” and similar expressions and variations thereof are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements appear in a number of places in this report and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company, its directors or its officers with respect to, among other things: (i) trends affecting the Company’s financial condition or results of operations; (ii) the Company’s financing plans; (iii) the Company’s business and growth strategies, including potential acquisitions; and (iv) other plans and objectives for future operations. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those predicted in the forward-looking statements or which may be anticipated from historical results or trends.

Our Company operates in technology-based markets that involve a number of risks, some of which are beyond our control. The following discussion highlights some risks and uncertainties that investors should consider, in conjunction with all other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company may impair the Company’s business and operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, the Company’s business, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations could be materially affected.

Our industry is highly competitive and competitive conditions may adversely affect our business.

Our success depends on our ability to compete in markets that are highly competitive, with rapid technological advances and products that require constant improvement in both price and performance. In most of our markets, we are experiencing increased competition, and we expect this trend to continue. This environment may result in changes in relationships with customers or vendors, the ability to develop new relationships, or the business failure of customers or vendors, which may negatively affect our business. If our competitors are more successful than we are in developing new technology and products, our business may be adversely affected.

Competitive pressures may increase or change through industry consolidation, entry of new competitors, marketing changes or otherwise. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to compete effectively with existing or potential competitors.

Competitors or third parties may infringe on our intellectual property.

The Company holds patents with respect to certain products and services. The Company also sells products under various trademarks and trade names. Should competitors or third parties infringe on these rights, costly legal processes may be required to defend our intellectual property rights, which could adversely affect our business.

Migration to flat panel and other technology may negatively affect our CRT business.

The Company acquires CRT inventory when the replacement market appears to demonstrate adequate future demand and the purchase price allows a reasonable profit for the risk. Due to the extended time frame for the replacement market to develop (five to seven years), these purchased inventories may not sell as quickly as other inventories. If the Company is unable to manage CRT inventory levels in coordination with reduced future CRT demand due to the growth of flat panel technology, the marketability of inventory on hand may be affected and the Company may incur significant costs in the disposal of excess inventory.

The Company anticipates that flat panel and other technology products, due to their lower space and power requirements, will eventually become the display of choice in many display applications. In anticipation of long-term trends toward flat panel display usage, the Company has focused its efforts and its acquisition strategy toward flat panel technologies. If the Company is unable to replace any future declines in CRT sales with products based on other technologies, our business may be adversely affected.

Future acquisitions may not provide benefits to the Company.

The Company’s growth strategy includes expansion through acquisitions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to complete further acquisitions or that past or future acquisitions will not have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations.

Changes in government priorities may affect military spending, and our financial condition and results of operations could suffer if their purchases decline.

We currently derive a significant portion of our net sales (26% in fiscal 2010) from direct and indirect sales to the U.S. government. If we are unable to replace expiring contracts, which are typically less then twelve months in duration, with contracts for new business, our sales could decline, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We expect that direct and indirect sales to the U.S. government will continue to account for a substantial portion of our sales in the foreseeable future. We have no assurance that these government-related sales will continue to reach or exceed historical levels in future periods.

If we are unable to retain certain key personnel and hire new highly skilled personnel, we may not be able to execute our business plan.

Our future success depends on the skills, experience, and efforts of our senior managers. The loss of services of any of these individuals, or our inability to attract and retain qualified individuals for key management positions, could negatively affect our business.

Our business operations could be disrupted if our information technology systems fail to perform adequately.

We depend upon our information technology systems in the conduct of our operations and financial reporting. If our major information systems fail to perform as anticipated, we could experience difficulties in maintaining normal business operations. Such systems related problems could adversely affect product development, sales, and profitability.

Changes to accounting rules or regulations may adversely affect our results of operations.

New accounting rules or regulations and varying interpretations of existing accounting rules or regulations have occurred and may occur in the future. Future changes to accounting rules or regulations or the questioning of current accounting practices, may adversely affect our results of operations.

The Company’s stock price may be negatively affected by a variety of factors.

In addition to any impact the Company’s operating performance, potential future Company sales of common stock, the Company’s dividend policies or possible anti-takeover measures available to the Company may have, changes in securities markets caused by general foreign or domestic economic, consumer or business trends, the impact of interest rate policies by the federal reserve board, and other factors outside the Company’s control may negatively affect our stock price.

Changes to estimates related to long-term assets, or operating results that are lower than our current estimates, may cause us to incur impairment charges.

We make certain estimates and projections in connection with impairment analyses for goodwill and other long-term assets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangible Assets” and FASB ASC Topic 360 “Property, Plant and Equipment.” These calculations require us to make a number of estimates and projections of long-term future results. If these estimates or projections change or prove incorrect, we

may be required to record impairment charges. If these impairment charges were significant, our results of operations would be adversely affected.

International factors could negatively affect our business.

A significant portion of our net sales (11% in fiscal 2010) is made to foreign customers. We are subject to the risks inherent in conducting our business across national boundaries, many of which are outside of our control. These risks include the following:

	•		Economic downturns;

	•		Currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations;

	•		Changes in governmental policy, including, among others, those relating to taxation;

	•		International military, political, diplomatic and terrorist incidents;

	•		Government instability;

	•		Nationalization of foreign assets; and

	•		Tariffs and governmental trade policies.

We cannot ensure that one or more of these factors will not negatively affect our international customers and, as a result, our business and financial performance.

Our inability to refinance our debt could negatively affect the future of our business.

	•		Our inability to refinance with our current bank or others, if necessary, could expose us to the risk of the bank exercising its rights against the collateral under the terms of the loan; and

	•		Our inability to refinance with a commercial bank could expose us to the risk of increased interest rates;

Our level of indebtedness could adversely affect the future operation of our business.

Our level of indebtedness could have important consequences, including:

	•		making it more difficult for us to make payments on the debt, as our business may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows from operating activities to meet our debt service obligations;

	•		increasing our vulnerability to general economic and industry conditions;

	•		requiring a substantial portion of cash flow from operating activities to be dedicated to the payment of our outstanding lines of credit and long-term debt, and as a result reducing our ability to use our cash flow to fund our operations and capital expenditures, capitalize on future business opportunities and expand our business and execute our strategy;

	•		exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates since much of our borrowings are at variable rates of interest;

	•		causing us to make non-strategic divestitures;

	•		limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, debt

			service requirements and other general corporate purposes; and

	•		limiting our ability to adjust to changing market conditions and to react to competitive pressure and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors who may have lower debt leverage.

Our debt agreements contain covenants that limit our flexibility in operating our business.

The agreements governing our indebtedness contain various covenants that limit our ability to engage in specified types of transactions, and which may adversely affect our ability to operate our business. Among other things, these covenants limit our ability to:

	•		incur additional indebtedness;

	•		make certain investments, loans or advances;

	•		transfer and sell certain assets;

	•		create or permit liens on assets;

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings relating to claims arising in the ordinary course of business.

On June 4, 2009, the Company announced that its Aydin Displays, Inc., subsidiary had entered into a License Agreement with BARCO Federal Systems, LLC, and BARCO N.V. a Belgian corporation. The License Agreement resolves all active litigation filed and currently pending between the companies in the U.S. District Court of North Georgia. As part of the Agreement, BARCO issued a non-exclusive license to Aydin Displays, Inc. for the use of BARCO’s patented Flicker Compensation (FC) technology utilized in certain advanced naval and industrial LCD displays. Under the terms of this agreement, Aydin is currently the only company worldwide licensed by BARCO for utilization of BARCO’s FC in advanced LCD displays.

Through this agreement, the Company is able to provide continued uninterrupted sales and support of LCD displays utilizing FC technology to existing and potential customer base. The Company looks on this agreement as mutually beneficial to both BARCO and Aydin in growing LCD display business.

During 2007, the Company acquired the Cathode Ray Tube Manufacturing and Distribution Business and certain assets of Clinton Electronics Corp. (“Clinton”), including inventory and fixed assets, for a total purchase price of $2,550,000, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement between the parties (the “APA”). The form of consideration for the assets acquired included: (i) a $1.0 million face value Convertible Note; (ii) an agreement to deliver a stock certificate representing Company Common Shares having a $1,125,000 in market value of the Company’s common stock in January 2008; and (iii) an agreement to deliver a stock certificate representing Company Common Shares having a $500,000 in market value of the Company’s common stock in January 2009. The Company has paid the $1.0 million Note Payable. The Company is disputing certain representations made by Clinton in the APA including but not limited to representations concerning revenue, expenses and inventory. As a result of this dispute, the Company has not issued the stock certificates scheduled for delivery in January 2008 and January 2009. As such, the Company has accrued a potential liability of $1,625,000 and this accrued liability is reflected in the Company’s current balance sheet.

Pursuant to the terms of the APA, the Company and Clinton have agreed to mediate the dispute in Atlanta, Georgia during the Company’s second quarter ended August 31, 2010. If mediation does not resolve the dispute, the APA provides for arbitration. Based on information currently available, the ultimate outcome of these disputed matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. However, the ultimate outcome cannot be predicted with certainty, and there can be no assurance that the Company’s failure to prevail would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

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

Overview

The Company is a worldwide leader in the manufacture and distribution of a wide range of display devices, encompassing, among others, industrial, military, medical, and simulation display solutions. The Company is comprised of two segments — (1) the manufacture and distribution of displays and display components (“Display Segment”) and (2) the wholesale distribution of consumer electronic parts from foreign and domestic manufacturers (“Wholesale Distribution Segment”). The Display Segment is organized into four interrelated operations aggregated into one reportable segment pursuant to the aggregation criteria of FASB ASC Topic 280 “Segment Reporting”:

	•		Monitors — offers a wide range of CRT, flat panel and projection display systems for use in training and simulation, military, medical, and industrial applications.

	•		Data Display CRTs — offers a wide range of CRTs for use in data display screens, including computer terminal monitors and medical monitoring equipment.

	•		Entertainment CRTs — offers a wide range of CRTs and projection tubes for television and home theater equipment.

	•		Component Parts — provides replacement electron guns and other components for CRTs primarily for servicing the Company’s internal needs.

The wholesale distribution segment is made up of parts distribution for electronic parts manufacturers and a call center for small appliance manufacturers.

During fiscal 2010, management of the Company focused key resources on strategic efforts to dispose of unprofitable operations seek acquisition opportunities that enhance the profitability and sales growth of the Company’s more profitable product lines. In addition, the Company continues to seek new products through acquisitions and internal development that complement existing profitable product lines. Challenges facing the Company during these efforts include:

Inventory management — The Company continually monitors historical sales trends as well as projected needs to ensure adequate on hand supplies of inventory and to ensure against overstocking of slower moving, obsolete items.

Certain of the Company’s divisions maintain significant inventories of CRTs and component parts in an effort to ensure its customers a reliable source of supply. The Company’s inventory turnover averages over 250 days, although in many cases the Company would anticipate holding 90 to 100 days of inventory in the normal course of operations. This level of inventory is higher than some of the Company’s competitors because it sells a number of products representing older, or trailing edge, technology that may not be available from other sources. The market for these trailing edge technology products is declining and, as manufacturers for these products discontinue production or exit the business, the Company may make “last time” buys. In the monitor operations of the Company’s business, the market for its products is characterized by rapid change as a result of the development of new technologies, particularly in the flat panel display area. If the Company fails to anticipate the changing needs of its customers or accurately forecast their requirements, it may accumulate inventories of products which its customers no longer need and which the Company will be unable to sell or return to its vendors. The Company’s management monitors the adequacy of its inventory reserves regularly, and at February 28, 2010, believes its reserves to be adequate.

Interest rate exposure — The Company had outstanding debt of approximately $25 million and $24 million as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which is subject to interest rate fluctuations by the Company’s lenders. Variable interest rates on the company’s loans and the potential for rate hikes could negatively affect the Company’s future earnings. It is the intent of the Company to continually

monitor interest rates and consider converting portions of the Company’s debt from floating rates to fixed rates should conditions be favorable for such interest rate swaps or hedges.

Operations

The following table sets forth, for the fiscal years indicated, the percentages that selected items in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations bear to total revenues (amounts in thousands):

Fiscal 2010 Compared to Fiscal 2009

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales decreased $2.5 million or 3.4% to $70.4 million for fiscal 2010, compared to $72.9 million for fiscal 2009. Display Segment sales were flat at $50.1 million for fiscal 2010, and for fiscal 2009. Wholesale Distribution Segment sales decreased 10.6% or $2.4 million from $22.8 million for fiscal 2009 to $20.4 million for fiscal 2010.

The Display Segment sales for fiscal 2010 had a general shift away from being a CRT company to being a video display solutions company as the market for CRTs declines and moves to newer technologies. The segment’s business is more concentrated in the monitor division of the segment where all the new growth is occurring. The Monitor revenues increased $1.5 million primarily due to contracts that began in the fourth quarter by the Aydin and Display Systems facilities offset by Lexel and Z-Axis facilities, which saw a decline for the year. Data Display CRT sales in fiscal 2010 declined due to a decreased demand by the division’s smaller customers, sales with the larger customers were flat. Entertainment CRT net sales declined $0.7 million in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009. A significant portion of the entertainment division’s sales are to major television retailers as replacements for products sold under manufacturer and extended warranties. Due to the continued shift to flat screen televisions, the market for replacement CRTs has diminished. The Company remains the primary supplier of product to meet manufacturers’ standard warranties. Future sales trends in this division will be negatively impacted by the decreasing number of extended warranties sold for larger, more expensive sets. Because the Company is in the replacement market, it has the ability to track retail sales trends and, accordingly, has reduced its inventory for these types of CRTs.

Components Parts sales decreased by $0.1 million from fiscal 2009 to fiscal 2010. Component Parts sales have generally declined in recent years due to weaker demand for electron gun and stem sales. Component Parts sales have historically been dependent upon the demand by domestic and foreign television CRT remanufacturers. These sales have declined over the past few years as consumers move towards purchasing new technology as opposed to repairing existing sets. This business will continue to decline as the television industry moves to the new technologies. The division primarily supplies the other divisions with parts they need to complete the assembly of their products.

Wholesale Distribution Segment net sales decline is attributed to a decline in the overall economy, particularly the consumer market, and a decision by management to focus on more profitable business, letting lower margin business go to competitors. The call center’s sales declined about $0.2 million due to fewer calls taken and therefore less billable time. The segment’s business is expected to pick up as the economy improves and management secures new accounts with higher margins to replace the lower margin business. The call center which acts as a consumer and dealer support center for in-warranty and out-of-warranty household products, appliances, parts and accessories for Black & Decker, Delonghi, Norelco, Coby and various other manufacturers. This call center also acts as a technical support center for these same manufacturers. The remainder of the decline was in the segment’s dealer base, which suffered due to reduced consumer demand.

Gross Margins

Consolidated gross margins decreased to 33.8% for fiscal 2010 from 34.1% for fiscal 2009.

Display Segment margins decreased to 27.4% for fiscal 2010 from 29.5% for fiscal 2009. Gross margins within the Monitor operation decreased to 27.5% for fiscal 2010 compared to 29.5% for fiscal 2009. The decrease was due to an increase in material costs of 4 percentage points offset by a savings of 2

percentage points on the overhead expenses due to cost cutting measures. The margins for the Monitor division are expected to improve as the divisions revenues increase and better efficiencies are achieved within their operations. Data Display CRT gross margins increased to 30.3% for fiscal 2010 compared to 28.4% for fiscal 2009. This increase in margins is primarily a result of product mix and increased pricing on smaller orders. Gross margins in Entertainment CRTs decreased to (25.8%) for fiscal 2010 from 16.3% for fiscal 2009 due to the decrease in sales volume of high margin products at the company’s Louisiana facility and the decreased production at the Chroma division. These margins will continue to decline as these operations are liquidated. Gross margins from Component Parts decreased to 26.8% for fiscal 2010 from 46.5% for fiscal 2009 for its customers outside the Company, primarily reflecting the decrease in need of its products outside the Company.

The Wholesale Distribution Segment gross margins increased to 49.5% for fiscal 2010 from 44.2% for fiscal 2009, primarily due to customer and product mix. The segment targeted customers with higher margins and the call center business, although it had a slight decrease in sales, contributed to an improvement in the gross margins. The segment is continuing to focus on profitable business and therefore expects to maintain its gross margins improvements.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales decreased to 30.7% for fiscal 2010 from 33.3% for fiscal 2009 primarily reflecting decreases in salaries, legal fees, research and development and professional services. The Company under took a cost cutting program to align its costs with its revenues. The Company expects to continue to control costs while growing its revenues in the coming year.

Display Segment operating expenses decreased $1.6 million or 12.4% to $11.3 million for fiscal 2010 compared to $12.9 million in fiscal 2009. This decrease is primarily due to the expenses mentioned above as all those reductions occurred in the Display Segment of the business.

Wholesale Distribution Segment operating expenses decreased $1.0 million or 9.2% to $10.3 million for fiscal 2010 compared to $11.3 million in fiscal 2009, primarily due to a decrease in salaries. These expenses (primarily payroll) are classified in general and administrative expense in the consolidated financial statements.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was flat at $1.1 million for fiscal 2010 compared to $1.1 million in fiscal 2009. The Company maintains various debt agreements with different interest rates, most of which are based on the prime rate or LIBOR. The interest expense remained the same primarily reflected by the same levels of borrowings at similar interest rates in effect during fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2010 was 34.2% compared to (361.7%) for fiscal 2009. The higher effective rate in 2010 and lower effective rate in 2009 were primarily due to research and experimentation credits and various other permanent items.

Foreign Currency Translation

Gains or losses resulting from the transactions with the Company’s UK subsidiary were reported in current operations while currency translation adjustments are recognized in a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The Company closed its operation in the UK and wrote off the foreign currency translation gain.

Management’s Discussion of Liquidity and Capital Resources

At February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, the Company had total cash of $0.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The Company’s working capital was $21.8 and $36.4 million at February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009. At February 28, 2010, the Company’s $20.1 million in outstanding lines of credit were classified as short-term debt as the bank agreement expires June 2010, as discussed later in this section. In recent years, the Company has financed its growth and cash needs primarily through income from operations, borrowings under revolving credit facilities, borrowings from its CEO and long-term debt.

The Company specializes in certain products representing trailing-edge technology that may not be available from other sources, and may not be currently manufactured. In many instances, the Company’s products are components of larger display systems for which immediate availability is critical for the customer. Accordingly, the Company enjoys higher gross margins, but typically has larger investments in inventories than those of its competitors.

The Company continually monitors its cash and financing positions in order to find ways to lower its interest costs and to produce positive operating cash flow. The Company examines possibilities to grow its business through internal sales growth or niche acquisitions. There could be an impact on working capital requirements to fund this growth. As in the past, the intent is to finance such projects with operating cash flows or existing bank lines; however, more permanent sources of capital may be required in certain circumstances.

Cash provided by operations was $0.4 million in fiscal 2010 and $1.3 million in fiscal 2009. During fiscal 2010, net working capital items decreased by $4.1 million due to an increase in accounts receivable of $2.8 due to large billings on contracts at year-end and inventory of $2.7 due to gearing up for new contracts and a last time buy of CRTs of $2.2 million due to manufacturers discontinuing the production of CRT inventories. These increases were offset by a decrease in refundable income taxes of $1.7.

Investing activities used cash of $0.7 million and $1.3 million in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. Capital expenditures exclusive of acquisitions were $0.4 million and $0.9 million in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. Capital expenditures in fiscal 2010 and 2009 were for general maintenance requirements and computer hardware. The Company does not anticipate significant investments in capital assets for fiscal 2011 beyond normal maintenance requirements.

Financing activities used cash of $0.0 million and $0.8 million in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. During fiscal 2010, the Company used cash for the repurchase of common stock of $0.3, borrowed a net amount of $0.6 from related parties, and used cash for the net repayment of debt of $0.3.

to tangible cash flow, ratio of debt to cash flow, and asset coverage. The agreement also includes restrictions on the incurrence of additional debt or liens, investments (including Company stock), divestitures and certain other changes in the business. The Company’s $17.0 million line of credit was extended to June 2010, and accordingly is classified under short-term liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet. The Company’s subsidiary, Fox International, Ltd. agreement expires in June 2010 and is classified in short term liabilities. The interest rate on these loans is a floating LIBOR rate based on a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the loan documents. In conjunction with Loan and Security Agreement, the syndicate also executed a $1.7 million term note with the Company repayable in 32 monthly increments of $50,000 each through July 1, 2011, and the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company personally provided a $6.0 million subordinated term note to the Company. The Company’s CEO loaned the Company an additional $1.2 million during the fiscal year ending February 28, 2010 leaving the balance outstanding under this loan agreement at approximately $2.8 million at February 28, 2010. See related information in Notes 7 and 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. These new lines of credit replaced the existing lines of credit with a syndicate including RBC Centura Bank and Regions Bank, which were terminated in conjunction with this agreement.

On May 24, 2010, the Company and the RBC Bank signed an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement that extended the $17 million line of credit and the Company’s subsidiary Fox International’s $3.5 million line of credit to September 30, 2010.

The Company is in negotiations with RBC Bank for a new senior secured credit facility. The bank has indicated its intentions to renew with Video Display Company and is interviewing for a partner to syndicate the loans. The $21.5 million facility is expected to have three parts, a $15.5 million LOC, a $3.0 million equipment term loan for 5 years, and a $3.0 million real estate term loan for 10 years. The LOC is for a period of 35 months. The initial pricing is Libor +300 bps, with a minimum interest rate of 4% and will be adjusted quarterly based on a quarterly fixed charge cover ratio test with the minimum of 4% in effect. However, the Company is also talking with other financial institutions in the unlikely event it cannot secure new financing with RBC Bank.

If the Company is unable to refinance its debt with RBC or another financial institution, the bank could exercise its rights against the collateral granted under the terms of the loan agreement. The Company cannot guarantee it will have sufficient assets and funds to repay the borrowings under the debt agreements if this occurs. Management believes it will be successful in its negotiations with the lenders in securing a new loan agreement; however, there can be no assurance an agreement can be reached.

The Company has a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which it was originally authorized to repurchase up to 1,632,500 shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market. On July 8, 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a one time continuation of the stock repurchase program, and authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock, depending on the market price of the shares. There is no minimum number of shares required to be repurchased under the program. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, the Company repurchased 229,037 shares at an average price of $1.50 per share, which have been added to treasury shares on the consolidated balance sheet. Under this program, an additional 816,418 shares remain authorized to be repurchased by the Company at February 28, 2010. As discussed in Note 7, the Loan and Security Agreement executed by Company on June 29, 2006 included restrictions on investments that restricted further repurchases of stock under this program. The participating banks granted an exception to these restrictions, allowing the Company to purchase unlimited shares providing the company meets the covenants in the loan agreement. Under an amendment to the credit agreement signed on August 25, 2009, repurchases are subject to prior written bank approval.

Transactions with Related Parties, Contractual Obligations, and Commitments

In conjunction with an agreement involving re-financing of the Company’s lines of credit and Loan and Security Agreement, on June 29, 2006, the Company’s CEO provided a $6.0 million subordinated term note to the Company with monthly principal payments of $33,333 plus interest through

July 2021. The interest rate on this note is equal to the prime rate plus one percent. The note is secured by a general lien on all assets of the Company, subordinate to the lien held by the RBC Bank. The Company’s CEO loaned the Company an additional $1.2 million during the fiscal year ending February 28, 2010 leaving the balance outstanding under this loan agreement at approximately $2.8 million at February 28, 2010.

The Company has a demand note outstanding from another officer, bearing interest at 8 percent. Principal payments of $73,000 and $63,000 were made on this note in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively, there were no additional advances on this note during fiscal 2010 or 2009. The balance outstanding on this note is $116,000 at February 28, 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Except for operating leases, the Company historically has not relied upon off-balance sheet arrangements, transactions or relationships that would materially affect liquidity or the availability of, or requirements for, capital resources.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and related notes. The accounting policies that may involve a higher degree of judgments, estimates, and complexity include reserves on inventories, the allowance for bad debts, contract revenue recognition as well as profitability or loss recognition estimates and warranty reserves. The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in determining its estimates:

Reserves on inventories

falls below its carrying amount. Management attempts to determine by historical usage analysis and interchangeability of CRT types along with repair contracts currently maintained by its customers, as well as numerous other market factors, the projected demand for CRTs in this estimate of net realizable value. Management is able to identify consumer buying trends, such as size and application, well in advance of supplying replacement CRTs. Thus, the Company is able to adjust inventory-stocking levels according to the projected demand. The average life of a CRT is five to seven years, at which time the Company’s replacement market develops. Management reviews inventory levels on a quarterly basis. Such reviews include observations of product development trends of the OEM’s, new products being marketed and technological advances relative to the product capabilities of the Company’s existing inventories. There have been no significant changes in management’s estimates in fiscal 2010 and 2009; however, the Company cannot guarantee the accuracy of future forecasts since these estimates are subject to change based on market conditions.

The reserve for inventory obsolescence was approximately $4.7 million and $3.6 million at February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, respectively. During fiscal 2009, the Company wrote down inventories of $1.2 million to market that had previously been reserved and disposed of $1.1 million of inventory at its Aydin subsidiary that previously had been reserved.

Revenue and profit or loss recognition

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605-45 “Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations”, shipping and handling fees billed to customers are classified in net sales in the consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and handling costs incurred for the delivery of product to customers are classified in selling and delivery in the consolidated statements of operations.

A portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from contracts to manufacture display systems to a buyer’s specification. These contracts are accounted for under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 605-35 “Revenue Recognition: Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”. These contracts are fixed-price and cost-plus contracts and are recorded on the percentage of completion basis using the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion as the measurement basis for progress toward completion and revenue recognition. Any losses identified on contracts are recognized immediately. Contract accounting requires significant judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract costs and making related assumptions for schedule and technical issues. With respect to contract change orders, claims, or similar items, judgment must be used in estimating related amounts and assessing the potential for realization. These amounts are only included in contract value when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable.

The Wholesale Distribution Segment has several distribution agreements that it accounts for using the gross revenue basis and one agreement that uses the net revenue basis as prescribed by FASB ASC Topic 605-45 “Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations”. The Company uses the gross method because the Company has general inventory risk, physical loss inventory risk and credit risk on the majority of its agreements but uses the net method on the one agreement because it does not have those same risks for that agreement. The call center service revenue is recognized based on written pricing agreements with each manufacturer, on a per-call, per-email, or per-standard-mail basis.

Allowance for bad debts

The allowance for bad debts is determined by reviewing all accounts receivable and applying historical credit loss experience to the current receivable portfolio with consideration given to the current condition of the economy, assessment of the financial position of the creditors as well as payment history and

overall trends in past due accounts compared to established thresholds. The Company monitors credit exposure and assesses the adequacy of the allowance for bad debts on a regular basis. Historically, the Company’s allowance has been sufficient for any customer write-offs. Although the Company cannot guarantee future results, management believes its policies and procedures relating to customer exposure are adequate.

Warranty reserves

The warranty reserve is determined by recording a specific reserve for known warranty issues and a reserve based on claims experience. The Company considers actual warranty claims compared to net sales, then adjusts its reserve liability accordingly. Actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the reserve. Management feels that historically its procedures have been adequate and does not anticipate that its assumptions are reasonably likely to change in the future.

Other loss contingencies

Other loss contingencies are recorded as liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can reasonably be estimated. Disclosure is required when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded provision. Contingent liabilities are often resolved over long time periods. Estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple factors that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after September 15, 2009. “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (FASB ASC) establishes the source of authoritative accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date, the FASB ASC superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the ASC became non-authoritative. Our adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued revised guidance to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. These revisions to FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation,” are effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued revised guidance for recognizing and measuring pre-acquisition contingencies in a business combination. These revisions, which are a part of FASB ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations,” address application issues raised by preparers, auditors, and members of the legal profession on initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. This guidance is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. This guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued revised guidance for the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. These revisions to FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangible Assets,” are intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of recognized intangible assets and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the intangible asset. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. This guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued revised guidance for the accounting of business combinations. These revisions to FASB ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations,” require that the acquisition method of accounting (previously the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and that an acquirer be identified for each business combination. This guidance also establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: a) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; b) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and c) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance will apply prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after March 1, 2009. We will be required to expense costs related to any acquisitions after February 28, 2009.

In December 2009, the FASB issued revised guidance FASB ASC 2009-17, “Consolidations (Topic 810) — Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities,” which codifies FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). FASB ASC 2009-17 represents a revision to former FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, to require an enterprise to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE) based on whether the entity (1) has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. In addition, FASB ASC 2009-17 requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary, and amends the events that trigger a reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE. Enhanced disclosures are also required to provide information about an enterprise’s involvement in a VIE. FASB ASC 2009-17 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after November 15, 2009. This guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued revised guidance FASB ASC 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures — Overall Subtopic” (Subtopic 820-10) to improve disclosure requirements for Fair Value Measurements. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. This guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued revised guidance FASB ASC 2010-09, “Subsequent Events” (Topic 855) to amend Subtopic 855-10. Among the provisions of the amendments is the removal for public companies of the requirement to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated. All of the amendments in this Update are effective upon issuance of the final Update for most filers.

Impact of Inflation

Inflation has not had a material effect on the Company’s results of operations to date.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company’s primary market risks include fluctuations in interest rates and variability in interest rate spread relationships, such as prime to LIBOR spreads. Approximately $24.2 million of outstanding debt at February 28, 2010 related to long-term indebtedness under variable rate debt. Interest on the outstanding balance of this debt will be charged based on a variable rate related to the prime rate or the LIBOR rate. Both rate bases are incremented for margins specified in their agreements. Thus, the Company’s interest rate is subject to market risk in the form of fluctuations in interest rates. The effect of a hypothetical one percentage point increase across all maturities of variable rate debt would result in a decrease of approximately $242,000 in pre-tax income assuming no further changes in the amount of borrowings subject to variable rate interest from amounts outstanding at February 28, 2010. The Company does not trade in derivative financial instruments.

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Fiscal Year

All references herein to “2010” and “2009” mean the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009 respectively.

Nature of Business

Video Display Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a world-class provider and manufacturer of video products, components, and systems for data display and presentation of electronic information media in all requirements and environments. The Company designs, engineers, manufactures, markets, distributes and installs technologically advanced display products and systems, from basic components to turnkey systems for government, military, aerospace, medical and commercial organizations. The Company also acts as a wholesale distributor of electronic parts and CRTs purchased from domestic and foreign manufacturers. In addition, the Company operates a call center that acts as a consumer and dealer support center for in-warranty and out-of-warranty household products, appliances, parts and accessories for Black & Decker, Delonghi, Norelco, Coby and various other manufacturers. This call center also acts as a technical support center for these same manufacturers. The Company’s operations are located in the U.S.; however, the Company did have a subsidiary operation located in the United Kingdom that closed in October 2008.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions.

Basis of Accounting

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Examples include provisions for returns, bad debts, inventory reserves, valuations on deferred income tax assets, goodwill, and other intangible assets, accounting for percentage of completion contracts and the length of product life cycles and fixed asset lives. Actual results could vary from these estimates.

Banking and Liquidity

The Company is in negotiations with RBC Bank for a new senior secured credit facility. The bank has indicated its intentions to renew with Video Display Corporation and is interviewing for a partner to syndicate the loans. The $21.5 million facility is expected to have three parts, a $15.5 million LOC, a $3.0 million equipment term loan for 5 years, and a $3.0 million real estate term loan for 10 years. The LOC is for a period of 35 months. The initial pricing is Libor +300 bps, with a minimum interest rate of 4% and will be adjusted quarterly based on a quarterly fixed charge cover ratio test with the minimum of 4% in effect.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the price has been fixed or is determinable and collect-ability can be reasonably assured. The Company’s delivery term typically is F.O.B. shipping point. The Company offers one-year and two-year limited warranties on certain products. The Company records, under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 460-10-25 “Guarantees: Recognition,” a liability for estimated warranty obligations at the date products are sold. Adjustments are made as new information becomes available.

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605-45 “Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations”, shipping, and handling fees billed to customers are classified in net sales in the consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and handling costs incurred are classified in selling and delivery in the consolidated statements of operations. Shipping costs of $1.6 million and $1.9 million were included in the fiscal years ended 2010 and 2009, respectively.

A portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from contracts to manufacture video displays to a buyer’s specification. These contracts are accounted for under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 605-35 “Revenue Recognition: Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”. The Company utilizes the percentage of completion method as contemplated by this SOP to recognize revenue on all contracts to design, develop, manufacture, or modify complex electronic equipment to a buyer’s specification. Percentage of completion is measured using the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion. Any losses identified on contracts are recognized immediately.

The Wholesale Distribution Segment has several distribution agreements that it accounts for using the gross revenue basis and one agreement which uses the net revenue basis as prescribed by FASB ASC Topic 605-45 “Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations”. The Company uses the gross method because the Company has general inventory risk, physical loss inventory risk and credit risk on the majority of its agreements but uses the net method on the one agreement because it does not have those same risks for that agreement. The call center service revenue is recognized based on written pricing agreements with each manufacturer, on a per-call, per-email, or per-standard-mail basis.

Research and Development

The Company includes research and development expenditures in the consolidated financial statements as a part of general and administrative expenses. Research and development costs were approximately $1.0 million and $1.3 million in the fiscal years ended 2010 and 2009 respectively.

Financial Instruments

Fair values of cash, accounts receivable, short-term liabilities, and debt approximate cost due to the short period of time to maturity. Recorded amounts of long-term debt and convertible debentures are considered to approximate fair value due to either rates that fluctuate with the market or are otherwise commensurate with the current market.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company sells its products primarily to general contractors, government agencies, manufacturers, and consumers of video displays and CRTs in the display segment and consumers of electronic products in the wholesale segment. Management performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and although the Company generally does not require collateral, letters of credit may be required from its customers in certain circumstances, such as foreign sales. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by reviewing all accounts receivable and applying historical credit loss experience to the current receivable portfolio with consideration given to the current condition of the economy, assessment of the financial position of the creditors as well as payment history and overall trends in past due accounts compared to established thresholds. The Company monitors credit exposure and assesses the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a regular basis. Historically, the Company’s allowance has been sufficient for any customer write-offs. Management believes accounts receivable are stated at amounts expected to be collected.

Warranty Reserves

The warranty reserve is determined by recording a specific reserve for known warranty issues and a general reserve based on historical claims experience. The Company considers actual warranty claims compared to net sales, then adjusts its reserve liability accordingly. Actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the reserve. Management believes that historically its procedures have been adequate and does not anticipate that its assumptions are reasonably likely to change in the future.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of flat panel displays, CRTs, electron guns, monitors, and electronic parts. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (primarily first-in, first-out) or market.

Reserves on inventories result in a charge to operations when the estimated net realizable value declines below cost. Management regularly reviews the Company’s investment in inventories for declines in value and establishes reserves when it is apparent that the expected net realizable value of the inventory falls below its carrying amount. Management considers the projected demand for CRTs in this estimate of net realizable value. Management is able to identify consumer buying trends, such as size and application, well in advance of supplying replacement CRTs. Thus, the Company is able to adjust inventory-stocking levels according to the projected demand. The average life of a CRT is five to seven years, at which time the Company’s replacement market develops. Management reviews inventory levels on a quarterly basis. Such reviews include observations of product development trends of the OEMs, new products being marketed, and technological advances relative to the product capabilities of the Company’s existing inventories. There have been no significant changes in management’s estimates in fiscal 2010 and 2009; however, the Company cannot guarantee the accuracy of future forecasts since these estimates are subject to change based on market conditions.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings – ten to twenty-five years; Machinery and Equipment – five to ten years. Depreciation expense totaled approximately $1.5 million and $1.5 million for the fiscal years ended 2010 and 2009 respectively. Substantial betterments to property, plant, and equipment are capitalized and routine repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Management reviews and assesses long-lived assets, which includes property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In performing the review for recoverability, management estimates the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the sum of the undiscounted expected cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized based upon the estimated fair value of the asset.

Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment annually unless events or circumstances exist that would require an assessment in the interim. The Company, in order to estimate the fair value of goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets estimate future revenue, considers market factors, and estimates our future cash flows. Based on these key assumptions, judgments and estimates, we determine whether we need to record an impairment charge to reduce the value of the assets carried on our balance sheet to their estimated fair value. Assumptions, judgments, and estimates about future values are complex and often subjective. They can be affected by a variety of factors, including external factors such as industry and economic trends and internal factors such as changes in our business strategy or our forecast. Although we believe the assumptions, judgments and estimates we have made are reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions, judgments and estimates could materially affect our reported financial results. As a result of such testing in February 2010 and 2009, the Company determined there was no impairment of goodwill.

Amortizable intangible assets consist primarily of customer lists and non-competition agreements related to acquisitions. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. The Company identifies and records impairment losses on intangible assets when events and circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired. No impairment of intangible assets has been identified during any of the periods presented.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company accounts for employee share-based compensation under the fair value method and uses an option pricing model for estimating the fair value of stock options at the date of grant as required by FASB ASC Topic 718-10-30, “Compensation – Stock Compensation: Initial Measurement”. For the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, the Company recognized general and administrative expense of $45,904 and $20,000 related to share-based compensation. The liability for the share-based compensation recognized is presented in the consolidated balance sheet as part of additional paid in capital. As of February 28, 2010, total unrecognized compensation costs related to stock options and shares of restricted stock granted was $82,482. The unrecognized share based compensation cost is expected to be recognized ratably over a period of approximately 3 years.

Comprehensive Income

FASB ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for reporting and presentation of non-owner changes in shareholders’ equity. For the Company, total non-owner changes in shareholders’ equity include net income and the change in the cumulative foreign exchange translation adjustment component of shareholders’ equity. Total comprehensive income was approximately $1.0 million and $0.1 million in the fiscal years ended 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Stock Repurchase Program

The Company has a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which it was originally authorized to repurchase up to 1,632,500 shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market. On July 8, 2009 the Board of Directors of the Company approved a one time continuation of the stock repurchase program, and authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock, depending on the market price of the shares. There is no minimum number of shares required to be repurchased under the program. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, the Company repurchased 229,037 shares at an average price of $1.50 per share, which have been added to treasury shares on the consolidated balance sheet. Under the Company’s stock repurchase program, an additional 816,418 shares remain authorized to be repurchased by the Company at February 28, 2010. The Loan and Security Agreement executed by the Company on September 26, 2008 included restrictions on investments that restricted further repurchases of stock under this program. Under the amendment to the credit agreement signed on August 25, 2009, repurchases are subject to prior written bank approval.

Taxes on Income

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method prescribed in FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than possible enactments of changes in the tax laws or rates. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company has adopted the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 740-10-25-6, “Income Tax: Basic Recognition Threshold” which prescribes the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Companies’ consolidated financial statements. This guidance requires that a position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. A recognized tax position is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Upon adoption, the Company did not have any material unrecognized tax benefits. As of February 28, 2010, the Company does not have any material unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of interest expense and other expense, respectively, in arriving at pretax income. The Company did not have any interest and penalties accrued upon the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 740-10-25 and, as of February 28, 2010, the Company does not have any interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits.

An examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) was concluded during the Company’s fiscal year ending February 28, 2009 for the fiscal years of 2007 and 2008. The result of the audit was an adjustment of approximately $115,000 for differences in the valuation of the inventory, approximately $42,000 related to transfer pricing adjustments and approximately $23,000 of interest. The Company’s tax year ended February 28, 2009 remains open to examination.

Foreign Currency Translations

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rate in effect at the end of the year. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average of the exchange rates in effect during the year. Translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses related to long-term inter-company transactions are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The Company had a subsidiary in the United Kingdom, which was not material, and used the British pound as its functional currency. The Company closed its operation in the UK and wrote off the foreign currency translation gain during 2010.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. Shares issued or repurchased during the year are weighted for the portion of the year that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period.

The following is a reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share for 2010 and 2009, (in thousands, except for per share data)


			Average Shares		Net Income
	Net Income		Outstanding		Per Share
2010
Basic	$	940		8,427	$	0.11
Effect of dilution:
Options		—		317

Diluted	$	940		8,744	$	0.11


2009
Basic	$	314		9,315	$	0.03
Effect of dilution:
Options		—		349

Diluted	$	314		9,664	$	0.03

Stock options, debentures, and other liabilities convertible into 47,000 and 87,000 shares respectively of the Company’s common stock were anti-dilutive and were excluded from the fiscal 2010 and 2009 diluted earnings per share calculation.

Segment Reporting

The Company applies FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” to report information about operating segments in annual and interim financial reports. An operating segment is defined as a component that engages in business activities, whose operating results are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to make decisions about allocating resources, and for which discrete financial information is available (see Note 12. Segment Reporting).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date, the FASB ASC superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the ASC became non-authoritative. Our adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Costs and Estimated Earnings Related to Billings on Uncompleted Contracts

Information relative to contracts in progress consisted of the following (in thousands):


	February 28,			February 28,
	2010			2009

Costs incurred to date on uncompleted contracts	$	5,476		$	3,423
Estimated earnings recognized to date on these contracts		2,934			1,515

		8,410			4,938
Billings to date		(5,201	)		(3,625	)

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, net	$	3,209		$	1,313


Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings	$	4,089		$	1,421
Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings		(880	)		(108	)

	$	3,209		$	1,313

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings are the results of contracts in progress (jobs) in completing orders to customers’ specifications on contracts accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 605-35, “Revenue Recognition: Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts.” Costs included are material, labor, and overhead. These jobs require design and engineering effort for a specific customer purchasing a unique product. The Company records revenue on these fixed-price and cost-plus contracts on the percentage of completion basis using the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion as the measurement basis for progress toward completion and revenue recognition. Any losses identified on contracts are recognized immediately. Contract accounting requires significant judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract costs and making related assumptions for schedule and technical issues. With respect to contract change orders, claims, or similar items, judgment must be used in estimating related amounts and assessing the potential for realization. These amounts are only included in contract value when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable. Billings are generated based on specific contract terms, which might be a progress payment schedule, specific shipments, etc. None of the above contracts in progress contains post-shipment obligations.

Changes in job performance, manufacturing efficiency, final contract settlements, and other factors affecting estimated profitability may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. The effect of changes in the estimated profitability of contracts for fiscal 2010 was to decrease net earnings by approximately $0.1 million pre-tax and $0.07 million after tax below the amounts that would have been reported had the preceding year contract profitability estimates been used. The effect of changes in the estimated profitability of contracts for fiscal 2009 was to increase net earnings by approximately $0.2 million pre-tax and $0.1 million after tax above

the amounts that would have been reported had the preceding year contract profitability estimates been used.

As of February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, there were no production costs that exceeded the aggregate estimated cost of all in process and delivered units relating to long-term contracts. Additionally, there were no claims outstanding that would affect the ultimate realization of full contract values. As of February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, there were no progress payments that had been netted against inventory.

Note 3. Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of the unamortized value of purchased patents/designs, customer lists, non-compete agreements and miscellaneous other intangible assets. Intangible assets are amortized over the period of their expected lives, generally ranging from five to 15 years. Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $740,000 and $883,000 for fiscal 2010 and 2009 respectively. As of February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, the cost and accumulated amortization of intangible assets was as follows (in thousands):

Note 7. Lines of Credit

On September 26, 2008, the Company executed a Loan and Security Agreement with RBC Bank to provide a $17 million line of credit to the Company and a $3.5 million line of credit to the Company’s subsidiary Fox International, Ltd. As of February 28, 2010, the outstanding balances of these lines of credit were $16.7 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The available amounts for borrowing were $0.3 million and $0.0 million, respectively. These loans are secured by all assets and personal property of the Company. The agreement contains covenants, including requirements related to tangible cash flow, ratio of debt to cash flow and asset coverage. The agreement also includes restrictions on the incurrence of additional debt or liens, investments (including Company stock), divestitures and certain other changes in the business. The $17 million line of credit was extended to June 2010, and accordingly is classified under short-term liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet. The Company’s subsidiary, Fox International, Ltd agreement expires in June 2010 and is classified in short term liabilities. The interest rate on these loans is a floating LIBOR rate based on a fixed charge coverage ratio, minimum 4.0%, as defined in the loan documents. In conjunction with Loan and Security Agreement, the syndicate also executed a $1.7 million term note with the Company repayable in 32 monthly increments of $50,000 each through July 1, 2011, and the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company personally provided a $6.0 million subordinated term note to the Company. See related information in Note 8 below. These new lines of credit replaced the existing lines of credit outstanding with a syndicate including RBC Bank and Regions Bank, which were terminated in conjunction with this agreement.

On February 26, 2010, the Company and the RBC Bank signed an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement that extended the Fox International Line of Credit to June 30, 2010 and eliminated the asset cover ratio covenant for the quarter ending February 28, 2010.

Note 8. Notes Payable to Officers and Directors

In conjunction with an agreement involving re-financing of the Company’s lines of credit and Loan and Security Agreement, on June 29, 2006 the Company’s CEO provided a $6.0 million subordinated term note to the Company with monthly principal payments of $33,333 plus interest through July 2021. The interest rate on this note is equal to the prime rate plus one percent. Interest payments of $197,000 and $167,000 were paid on this note in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. The note is secured by a general lien on all assets of the Company, subordinate to the lien held by the syndicate of RBC Bank. The Company’s CEO loaned the Company an additional $1.2 million during the fiscal year ending February 28, 2010 leaving the balance outstanding under this loan agreement at approximately $2.8 million at February 28, 2010.

The Company has a demand note outstanding from another officer, bearing interest at 8%. Principal payments of $73,000 and $63,000 were made on these notes in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. Interest payments of $17,000 and $19,000 were paid on this note in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. The balance outstanding on this note is approximately $116,000 at February 28, 2010.

Note 10. Stock Options

Upon recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company, on August 25, 2006, the shareholders of the Company approved the Video Display Corporation 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (“Plan”), whereby options to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock may be granted and up to 100,000 restricted common stock shares may be awarded. Options may not be granted at a price less than the fair market value, determined on the day the options are granted. Options granted to a participant who is the owner of ten percent or more of the common stock of the Company may not be granted at a price less than 110% of the fair market value, determined on the day the options are granted. The exercise price of each option granted is fixed and may not be re-priced. The life of each option granted is determined by the plan administrator, but may not exceed the lesser of five years from the date the participant has the vested right to exercise the option, or seven years from the date of the grant. The life of an option granted to a participant who is the owner of ten percent or more of the common stock of the Company may not exceed five years from the date of grant. All full-time or part-time employees, and Directors of the Company, are eligible for participation in the Plan. In addition, any consultant or advisor who renders bona fide services to the Company, other than in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction, is eligible for participation in the Plan. The plan administrator is appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company, and must include two or more outside, independent

Directors of the Company. The Plan may be terminated by action of the Board of Directors, but in any event will terminate on the tenth anniversary of its effective date.

Prior to expiration on May 1, 2006, the Company maintained an incentive stock option plan whereby options to purchase up to 1.2 million shares could be granted to directors and key employees at a price not less than fair market value at the time the options were granted. Upon vesting, options granted are exercisable for a period not to exceed ten years. No further options may be granted pursuant to the plan after the expiration date; however, those options outstanding at that date will remain exercisable in accordance with their respective terms.

Information regarding the stock option plans is as follows:

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the Company to estimate the expected term of the stock option grants and expected future stock price volatility over the term. The term represents the expected period of time the Company believes the options will be outstanding based on historical information. Estimates of expected future stock price volatility are based on the historic volatility of the Company’s common stock. The Company calculates the historic volatility based on the weekly stock closing price, adjusted for dividends

and stock splits. The fair value of the stock options is based on the stock price at the time the option is granted, the annualized volatility of the stock and the discount rate at the grant date.

On September 1, 2006, the Company granted 10,000 restricted common stock shares to certain management employees at fair value on the date of grant, $8.12 per share. Total compensation cost associated with the grant, $81,000 will be recognized over the twenty-one month vesting period, at which time the restrictions on the shares will terminate. No forfeitures are expected in relation to this grant due to the limited term of vesting.

Investment loss carry forwards in the amount of $108,000 expired in 2009. The Company provided a valuation allowance on these loss carry forwards, as full realization of these assets was not considered likely.

Undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiary have been considered to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal and state income taxes has been provided thereon. Upon distribution of those earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the foreign country. The Company has decided to close the foreign subsidiary and has determined the tax liability to be immaterial.

Note 12. Segment Information

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting”, the Company has determined that it has two reportable segments. The two reportable segments are as follows: (1) the manufacture and distribution of displays and display components (“Display Segment”) and (2) the wholesale distribution of consumer electronic parts from foreign and domestic manufacturers (“Wholesale Distribution Segment”). The operations within the Display Segment consist of monitors, data display CRTs, entertainment (television and projection) CRTs, projectors and other monitors and component parts. These operations have similar economic criteria, and are appropriately aggregated consistent with the criteria of FASB ASC Topic 280-10-50, “Segment Reporting: Disclosure”. The Company’s call center is an integral part of the distribution of electronic consumer parts, consumer and dealer support and technical support functions, with call activity for all of these functions being routed to call employees cross-trained to provide appropriate service. Accordingly, the call center is included within the Wholesale Distribution segment.

Sales to foreign customers were 11% and 13% of consolidated net sales for fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. Foreign operations are included in the Display Segment.

The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Segment amounts disclosed reflect elimination entries made in consolidation. The chief operating decision maker evaluates performance of the segments based on operating income. Costs excluded from this profit measure primarily consist of interest expense and income taxes.

The following table sets forth net sales, income before income taxes, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, and identifiable assets for each reportable segment and applicable operations:

Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company leases various manufacturing facilities and transportation equipment under leases classified as operating leases, expiring at various dates through 2018. These leases provide that the Company pay taxes, insurance, and other expenses on the leased property and equipment. Rent expense for all leases was approximately $1.6 million and $1.8 million in fiscal 2010 and 2009 respectively.

Future minimum rental payments due under these leases are as follows (in thousands):

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings relating to claims arising in the ordinary course of business.

Legal Proceedings

Pursuant to the terms of the APA, the Company and Clinton have agreed to mediate the dispute in Atlanta, Georgia during the Company’s second quarter. If mediation does not resolve the dispute, the APA provides for arbitration. Based on information currently available, the ultimate outcome of these disputed matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. However, the ultimate outcome cannot be predicted with certainty, and there can be no assurance that the Company’s failure to prevail would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Note 15. Concentrations of Risk and Major Customers

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. At times, such cash in banks are in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

The Company sells to a variety of domestic and international customers on an open-unsecured account basis, in certain cases requiring letters of credit. These customers principally operate in the medical, military, and avionics industries. The Company’s Display Segment had direct and indirect net sales to the U.S. government, primarily the Department of Defense for training and simulation programs, which comprised approximately 37% and 40% of Display Segment net sales and 26% and 27% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. Sales to foreign customers were 11% and 13% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company’s Wholesale Distribution Segment, Fox International, had net sales to two customers that comprised approximately 34% and 30% of that subsidiary’s net sales in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company attempts

to minimize credit risk by reviewing all customers’ credit history before extending credit, by monitoring customers’ credit exposure on a daily basis and requiring letters of credit for certain sales. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

Item 9A (T). Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report (February 28,2010). Our disclosure controls and procedures are intended to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as the principal executive and financial officers, respectively, to allow final decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on their evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of February 28, 2010, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The required certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and our acting Chief Financial Officer are included as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The disclosures set forth in this Item 9A contain information concerning the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, internal control over financial reporting and changes to internal control referred to in those certifications. Those certifications should be read in conjunction with this Item 9A for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by the certifications.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have not been any other changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal year to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A

company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in the framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) entitled “Internal Control- Integrated Framework.” Based on such assessment, our management concluded that as of February 28, 2010 our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Limitations on the effectiveness of controls.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that internal control over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and potential fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Video Display Corporation have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
