**General Development of Business and Information about Business Activity**

LaBarge, Inc. (“LaBarge” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation, incorporated in 1968, that manufactures and designs high-performance electronic, electro mechanical and interconnect systems on acontract basis for customers in diverse technology-driven markets.  The Company’s core competencies are to provide complete electronic systems solutions, including the manufacturing, engineering and design of interconnect systems, circuit card assembliesand high-level assemblies for its customers’ specialized applications.

The Company markets its services to customers desiring an engineering and manufacturing partner capable of developing and providing high-reliability electronic and electro mechanical equipment, including products capable ofperforming in harsh environmental conditions, such as high and low temperature, severe shock and vibration.  The Company serves customers in a variety of markets including defense, government systems, aerospace, natural resources, industrial and other commercialmarkets.  The Company’s engineering and manufacturing facilities are located in Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas and Pennsylvania.  The Company employs approximately 1,260 people, including approximately 1,075 people who provide support forproduction activities (including assembly, test and engineering) and approximately 185 people who provide administrative support.

The Company uses a fiscal year ending the Sunday closest to June 30; each fiscal quarter period is 13 weeks.  Fiscal years 2007 and 2006 consisted of 52 weeks, compared with 53 weeks in fiscal year 2005.

The Company operates its business in one reporting segment. See the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto filed with this Annual Report on Form 10-K for information relating to revenues from externalcustomers, profits, total assets and geographical areas for each of the last three fiscal years.

**Sales and Marketing**

During fiscal 2007, 37.1% of the Company’s revenues were generated from customers in the defense market, 24.4% from customers in the natural resources market, 15.6% from customers in the industrial marketand 9.2% from customers in the government systems market. The remaining 13.7% of sales came from various customers in the commercial aerospace, medical, telecommunications and other industries.  The Company produces electronic equipment for use in a variety ofhigh-technology applications, including military communication and radar systems, industrial automation, military and commercial aircraft, satellites, space launch vehicles, down-hole instrumentation for oil and gas wells, and postal automation equipment.  TheCompany’s broad-based core competencies in electronics design and manufacturing allow it to pursue diverse opportunities with customers in many different markets.  The diversification of the Company’s customer base helps protect it from volatility inany one market sector.

With few exceptions, the Company’s sales are made pursuant to fixed-price contracts.  Larger, long-term government contracts frequently have provisions for milestone payments, progress payments or cashadvances for purchase of inventory.

The Company seeks to develop strong, long-term relationships with its customers, which will provide the basis for future sales.  These close relationships allow the Company to better understand eachcustomer’s business needs and identify ways to provide greater value to the customer.

**Competition**

There is intense competition for all of the Company’s targeted customers.  While the Company is not aware of another entity that competes in all of its capabilities, there are numerous companies, manylarger, which compete in one or more of these capabilities.  The Company’s customers frequently have the ability to produce internally the products contracted to the Company, but because of cost, capacity, engineering capability or other reasons, outsourceproduction of such products to the Company. The principal bases of competition are service, price, engineering expertise, technical and manufacturing capabilities, quality, reliability, and overall project management capability.

**Concentration of Business**

The Company’s three largest customers accounted for, 12.9%, 9.7%, and 9.6% of total sales in fiscal 2007.  No other customer accounted for more than 9.0% of total sales. Sales to the largest 10 customers representedapproximately 70% of the Company’s total sales in fiscal year 2007 and 69% in fiscal year 2006.In fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively, 37.1% and 39.9% of the Company’s net sales derived from sales contracts with original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) doing business with the U.S. Government or its agencies. Generally, governmentcontracts may be terminated at the convenience of the government. When such contracts are terminated, the Company typically receives payments to cover its direct and indirect costs incurred before termination.

**Manufacturing Operations**

The Company has organized its engineering and production to provide flexible independent plant locations with specific design and manufacturing capabilities.  This approach allows local management at each facility toconcentrate the necessary attention on specific customer needs and, at the same time, control all key aspects of the engineering and manufacturing processes.Generally, there are multiple sources for materials required by the Company for its manufacturing process. However, pursuant to some of its contracts, the Company is limited to a single source for certain components. In most cases, the Company believes that if itwere unable to obtain components from the designated source, it would be able to obtain a new source, mutually agreed upon by the parties, without adversely impacting its manufacturing process.

**Strategy**

The Company’s business strategy is to serve as an outsourcing partner to OEMs that do business in diverse markets by providing a package of broad-based manufacturing capabilities and value-added services. This strategyis designed around the Company’s core competencies in manufacturing complex electronic and electro mechanical assemblies, subsystems and interconnect systems for specialized applications where reliability is critical. The Company’s business historicallywas concentrated in the defense and other government-related markets. In recent years, that focus has broadened to include industrial and commercial customers. This greater market diversity helps protect the Company from downturns in any one market.

*The Company’s customer base is concentrated.*Significant reduction in sales to any of the Company’s major customers or the loss of a major customer could have a material impact on the Company’s operations. Although the Company believes its relationships with its largecustomers are good, there can be no assurance that the Company will retain any or all of its large customers or will be able to form new relationships with customers upon the loss of one or more of its existing customers. This risk may be further complicated bypricing pressures and intense competition prevalent in our industry.

*A material portion of the Company’s business is dependent on U.S. Government defense contracts, which could be adversely affected by cutbacks in government defense spending.*In fiscal 2007 and 2006, respectively, approximately 37% and 40% of the Company’s net sales were generated from subcontracts with OEMs on defense contracts with the U.S. Government.  The Company’s net sales could be negatively impacted as a result ofgovernment defense spending cuts, general budgetary constraints, and the complex and competitive government procurement processes.  If the Company is unable to maintain the recent level of government-related sales, or replace government-related contracts withthose of comparable non-government customers, the Company’s sales and results of operations will be adversely affected.

*Some of the Company’s contracts involving the government are subject to cancellation at the government’s option.*In fiscal 2007 and 2006, respectively, approximately 37% and 40% of the Company’s revenues were derived from subcontracts with OEMs on their contracts with the U.S. government.  The government has the right to terminate thesecontracts without cause for its convenience.  While the Company normally recovers its direct and indirect costs, termination of the contract by the government could result in the Company receiving lower than anticipated profits for the Company.

*The requirements of the Company’s customers vary.*The Company does not generally obtain long-term purchase contracts. The timing of purchase orders placed by the Company’s customers is affected by a number of factors, including variation in demand for the customers’ products,federal government funding, regulatory changes affecting customers’ industries, customer attempts to manage their inventory, changes in customers’ manufacturing strategies, and customers’ technical problems or issues. Many of these factors areoutside the control of the Company.

*The Company and its customers may be unable to keep current with the industry’s technological changes.*The market for the Company’s manufacturing services is characterized by rapidly changing technology and continuing product development. The future success of the Company’s business will depend in large part upon its and itscustomers’ ability to maintain and enhance technological capabilities, develop and market manufacturing services that meet changing customer needs, and successfully anticipate or respond to technological changes in manufacturing processes on a cost-effectiveand timely basis.

Certain of the Company’s customers must be in compliance with a new European standard, Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS Directive 2002-95-EC) for all products shipped tothe European marketplace. The purpose of the directive is to restrict the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment and to contribute to the environmentally sound recovery and disposal of electrical and electronic equipment waste. Inaddition, electronic component manufacturers must produce electronic components that are lead-free. The Company’s Pittsburgh operation has implemented lead-free wave solder and reflow systems. The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for componentsused in the Company’s production process. Customers’ specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single source or a small number of suppliers. There is no assurance these suppliers will comply with this new standard. The inabilityto utilize any such suppliers could increase the cost of components and have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

*The Company faces intense industry competition and downward pricing pressures.*The EMS industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition. Some of the Company’s competitors have substantially greater manufacturing, purchasing, marketing and financial resources than the Company. Many of theCompany’s customers have the in-house capability to fulfill their manufacturing requirements.

There can be no assurance that competition from existing or potential competitors will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. The introduction of lowerpriced competitive capabilities, significant price reductions by the Company’s competitors or significant pricing pressures from its customers could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

*The Company may not have the ability to control, and may not accurately estimate, its costs associated with performing under fixed-price contracts.*Most of the Company’s contracts are on a fixed-price basis.  In order to realize a profit on these contracts, the Company must, when it bids these contracts, accurately estimate its costs to complete the contracts.  Itsfailure to accurately estimate these costs can result in cost overruns, which result in reduced or lost profits.  Estimates of labor costs are most difficult in the case of contracts with new customers.  For example, in fiscal 2007, the Company incurredunanticipated labor and other costs in the early stages of several contracts with new customers, which had a negative impact on the Company’s operating margins.

*The availability and cost of raw components may adversely affect the Company’s operations.*The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company’s production process. Certain of these components are available only from single sources or a limited number of suppliers. In addition, acustomer’s specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single source or a small number of suppliers. The loss of any such suppliers could have a material negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company couldoperate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater direct buying power from suppliers.

*The Company may not be able to replace completed, canceled or reduced contracts with new contracts.*The Company is dependent upon contract awards from its customers.  The size and timing of contracts vary from period to period.  If the Company is unable to replace completed, canceled or reduced contracts in a timely fashion,revenues and operating results will decline.

*The Company is dependent on key personnel.*The Company depends significantly on its executive and plant management. The loss of the services of any of these key employees could have a material impact on the Company’s business and results of operations. In addition, despitesignificant competition, continued growth and expansion of the Company’s contract manufacturing business will require that it attract, motivate and retain additional skilled and experienced personnel. The inability to satisfy these requirements could have anegative impact on the Company’s ability to remain competitive in the future.

*Failure to comply with environmental regulations could subject the Company to liability.*The Company is subject to a variety of environmental regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous chemicals used during its manufacturing process. Any failure by the Company to comply with present or futureregulations could subject it to future liabilities or the suspension of production, which could have a material negative impact on the Company’s results of operations.

*The price of the Company’s stock is volatile.*The price of the Company’s Common Stock historically has experienced significant volatility due to a number of factors including: fluctuations in the Company’s revenue and earnings, the market’s changing expectations forthe Company’s growth, overall equity market conditions, the limited float of the Company’s Common Stock and other factors either related or unrelated to the Company’s operations. Such fluctuations are expected to continue.

The growth in backlog is the result of a sales and marketing effort that focuses on matching the Company’s core competencies and the application of those competencies to the outsourcing needs of targeted large customersin a variety of industries.  Approximately $55.1 million of the backlog at fiscal 2007 year-end is scheduled to ship beyond the next 12 months pursuant to the shipment schedules contained in those contracts.  This compares with $38.9 million at fiscalyear-end 2006. 

Continued strength in the majority of the Company’s markets, plus the record backlog at July 1, 2007, contribute to the Company’s expectation for higher sales in fiscal 2008.

The gross profit margin for fiscal 2007 decreased by 2.1 points from fiscal 2006. The Company’s gross profit margin has ranged from 20% to 23% in recent years. During the fiscal year endedJuly 1, 2007, the gross margin declined due in large part to higher than anticipated labor and material costs on certain early-stage contracts that will not be fully recoverable from our customers and start-up expenses on a significant new contract in the industrialmarket sector. In addition, the Company recorded costs of $738,000 to account for the actual and anticipated loss on current and future shipments on one particular program.

Changes are being made in operations to address these difficulties. Action plans on each of the affected jobs have been developed and are being implemented. These plans include specific steps to: reduce recurring labor hoursand mitigate material price increases; eliminate excessive scrap; and, where appropriate, renegotiate contract prices. It is the Company’s expectation that the Company’s gross margin will remain below our typical range in the short-term while these plansare being implemented.

Gross profit margins vary significantly from contract to contract. The gross profit margin for any particular quarter or year will reflect the mix of contract revenue in that period.

The Company’s operations generated $11.9 million of cash in fiscal 2007, compared with a use of $8.6 million in fiscal 2006. Net change in advance payments from customers was a use of $3.0 million in fiscal 2007 and ause of $7.1 million in fiscal 2006. The increase in accounts and notes receivable was a use of cash of $500,000 in fiscal 2007 and $6.4 million in fiscal 2006, although days sales outstanding decreased in fiscal 2007. Increases in inventories used cash of $5.9million and $12.5 million, respectively, in fiscal 2007 and 2006; while inventory turns were 3.2 times in fiscal 2007, compared with 3.1 times in fiscal 2006. The significant increase in accounts receivable and inventory were major contributors to the negative cashflow from operations in fiscal 2006.

Investing activities, primarily the proceeds from the sale of real estate offset by capital expenditures, generated $3.6 million in fiscal 2007. Currently, the Company’s total debt-to-equity ratio is 0.34 to 1versus 0.64 to 1 at the end of fiscal 2006.

Overall, management believes availability of funds going forward from cash generated from operations and available bank credit facilities should be sufficient to support the planned operations and capital expenditures of theCompany’s business for the next two fiscal years.

***Critical Accounting Policies***The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amountsreported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgment of certain amounts included in the financial statements.  The Company believes there is alikelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions related to the accounting policies described below.  Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use ofassumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.  The Company’s senior management discusses the accounting policies described below with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directorson a periodic basis.The following discussion of critical accounting policies is intended to bring to the attention of readers those accounting policies that management believes are critical to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and other financial disclosures. It is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our significant accounting policies that are more fully described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July1, 2007.

***Revenue Recognition and Cost of Sales***Revenue is generally recognized when title transfers, which is usually upon shipment.  On a very limited number of contracts, at a customer’s request, the Company will recognize revenue when ownership passes. As of July 1,2007, July 2, 2006 and July 3, 2005, the Company has recognized revenue under these arrangements of $2.2 million, $2.4 million, and $2.0 million, respectively. The Company recognizes revenue for storage and other related services as the services areprovided.

The percentage-of-completion method gives effect to the most recent contract value and estimates of cost at completion. Management’s estimates of material, labor and overhead costs on long-term contracts are critical tothe Company.  Since some contracts extend over a long period of time, revisions in cost during the progress of work have the effect of adjusting current period earnings applicable to performance in prior periods. When the current contract cost estimate indicatesa loss, provision is made for the total anticipated loss in the period the loss becomes evident.

During fiscal year 2007, the Company entered into a new significant agreement with an industrial customer to manufacture and supply certain parts. Under FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No.99-19,” “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principle versus Net as an Agent,” the cost of the supplied parts will be netted against the invoice price to determine Net Sales. In fiscal year 2008, the Company anticipates revenues recognized under thiscontract could approach or exceed $10.0 million.

***Inventories***Inventories, which consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead, are carried at the lower of cost or market value. In addition, management regularly reviews inventory for obsolescence to determine whether any additional write-down isnecessary.  Various factors are considered in making this determination, including expected program life, recent sales history, predicted trends and market conditions.  If actual demand or market conditions are less favorable than those projected bymanagement, additional inventory write-downs may be required.  For the years ended July 1, 2007 and July 2, 2006, expense for obsolete or slow-moving inventory charged to income before income taxes was $1.3 million and $919,000, respectively.

***Goodwill and Other Intangibles***In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives and goodwill are not subject toamortization. All other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives.  Goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate thatthe asset might be impaired.  This testing requires comparison of carrying values to fair values, and when appropriate, the carrying value of impaired assets is reduced to fair value.  During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company completed its annualimpairment test and determined that estimates of fair value are reasonable. Different assumptions regarding such factors as sales levels and price changes, labor and material cost changes, interest rates and productivity could affect such valuations.

***Recently Issued Accounting Standards***In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) FASB issued FASB Interpretation Number 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”).  FIN 48 establishes arecognition threshold and measurement for income tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  FIN 48 also prescribes a two-step evaluation processfor tax positions.  The first step is recognition and the second is measurement.  For recognition, an enterprise judgmentally determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution ofrelated appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position.  If the tax position meets the more likely than not recognition threshold, it is measured and recognized in the financial statements as the largest amount of tax benefit thatis greater than 50% likely of being realized.  If a tax position does not meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the benefit of that position is not recognized in the financial statements.

Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold at the effective date of FIN 48 may be recognized, or continue to be recognized, upon adoption of FIN 48.  The cumulative effect of applying theprovisions of FIN 48 shall be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for that fiscal year.  FIN 48 will apply to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with earlier adoption permitted.  The Company does not anticipatethe adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), to clarify the definition of fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value and expand the disclosureson fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or the price paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). SFAS No.157 also stipulates that, as a market-based measurement, fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (a)market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (i.e., observable inputs) and (b) the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the bestinformation available in the circumstances (i.e., unobservable inputs). SFAS No. 157 becomes effective for the Company in its fiscal year ending June 28, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 on its consolidatedfinancial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-4, “Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefits Aspects of EndorsementSplit-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements” (“EITF 06-4”).  This addresses only endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements that provide a benefit to an employee that extends to postretirement periods. In an endorsement split-dollararrangement, the employer owns and controls the policy, and the employer and an employee split the insurance policy’s cash surrender value and/or death benefits.

The EITF consensus would require that the deferred compensation or postretirement benefit aspects of an endorsement-type split-dollar life insurance arrangement be recognized as a liability by the employer and that theobligation is not effectively settled by the purchase of a life insurance policy. The liability for future benefits would be recognized based on the substantive agreement with the employee, which may be either to provide a future death benefit or to pay for thefuture cost of the life insurance.

If ratified, EITF 06-4 will become effective for the Company in its fiscal year ending June 28, 2009.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of EITF 06-04 on its consolidated financialstatements.

In September 2006, the FASB’s EITF reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-5, “Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance—Determining the Amount That Could Be Realized in Accordance with FASB TechnicalBulletin No. 85-4, *Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance,”* (“EITF 06-5”).  This consensus explains how to determine the amount that could be realized from a life insurance contract, which is the measurement amount for the asset inaccordance with Technical Bulletin 85-4. The consensus would require policyholders to determine the amount that could be realized under a life insurance contract assuming individual policies are surrendered.

If ratified, EITF 06-5 will become effective for the Company in its fiscal year ending June 29, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of EITF 06-5 on its consolidated financialstatements.

*Foreign Currency Risk*No information has been included hereunder because the Company’s foreign sales in each of fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005 were less than 10% of total Company revenue. All foreign contracts are paid in U.S. dollars and the Company isnot significantly exposed to foreign currency translation.  However, if the significance of foreign sales grows, management will continue to monitor whether it would be appropriate to use foreign currency risk management instruments to mitigate anyexposures.

*Interest Rate Risk*As of July 1, 2007, the Company had $26.3 million in total debt.  Industrial revenue bonds and capital leases totaling $931,000 have a fixed rate and are not subject to interest rate risk. The interest rate on the remaining $25.3million is subject to fluctuation.  If interest rates increased 1%, the additional interest cost to the Company would be approximately $253,000 for one year.

| Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Rule 13a-15(f)). Under the supervision and withthe participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, we assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 1, 2007. In making this assessment, our management used thecriteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in the report entitled “Internal Control-Integrated Framework.” Although there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internalcontrol over financial reporting, our management has concluded that, as of July 1, 2007, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on its evaluation. Our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, has issued an audit report on ourassessment of our internal control over financial reporting, which is included herein. |

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

of LaBarge, Inc:

We have audited management's assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting*,* that LaBarge, Inc. and subsidiaries’ maintained effective internalcontrol over financial reporting as of July 1, 2007, based on* * criteria established in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)*.* LaBarge, Inc. andsubsidiaries’ management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management'sassessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whethereffective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing and evaluating the design andoperating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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 inaccordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect thetransactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) 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 andexpenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of thecompany’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.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk thatcontrols may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management's assessment that LaBarge, Inc. and subsidiaries’ maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of July 1, 2007, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based oncriteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  Also, in our opinion, LaBarge, Inc. and subsidiaries’ maintained, in all material respects,effective internal control over financial reporting as of July 1, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

**LaBarge, Inc.NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
| **1.** | **    ** | **SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** |
|--------|------------------------------|------------------------------------------------|

**Nature of Operations**

The Company manufactures and assist in the design and engineering of sophisticated electronic and electro mechanical systems and devices and complex interconnect systems on a contract basis for its customers indiverse markets. 

Our contract manufacturing capabilities are marketed to companies desiring an engineering and manufacturing partner capable of developing and providing high-reliability electronic equipment, including productscapable of performing in harsh environmental conditions, such as high and low temperature, severe shock and vibration.  The Company serves customers in the defense, aerospace, natural resources, industrial, and other commercial markets.  The group’sengineering and manufacturing facilities are located in Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas and Pennsylvania.

**Principles of Consolidation**The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LaBarge, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  Investments in less than 20%-owned companies are accounted for at cost.

**Accounting Period**The Company uses a fiscal year ending the Sunday closest to June 30; each fiscal quarter period is 13 weeks.  Fiscal years 2007 and 2006 consisted of 52 weeks, compared with 53 weeks in fiscal year 2005.

**Segment Reporting Policy**The Company reports its operations as one segment.

****

**Use of Estimates**The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reportedamounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from theseestimates.

**Revenue Recognition and Cost of Sales**Revenue is generally recognized when title transfers, which is usually upon shipment.  On a very limited number of contracts, at the customers’ request, the Company will recognize revenue when ownership passes. As of July 1, 2007,July 2, 2006 and July 3, 2005, the Company has recognized revenue under these arrangements of $2.2 million, $2.4 million, and $2.0 million, respectively. The Company recognizes revenue for storage and other related services as the services areprovided.

The percentage-of-completion method gives effect to the most recent contract value and estimates of cost at completion. Management’s estimates of material, labor and overhead costs on long-term contracts are critical tothe Company.  Since some contracts extend over a long period of time, revisions in cost during the progress of work have the effect of adjusting current period earnings applicable to performance in prior periods. When the current contract cost estimate indicatesa loss, provision is made for the total anticipated loss in the period the loss becomes evident.

During fiscal year 2007, the Company entered into a new significant agreement with an industrial customer to manufacture and supply certain parts. Under FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No.99-19,” “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principle versus Net as an Agent,” the cost of the supplied parts will be netted against the invoice price to determine Net Sales.

**Accounts Receivable**Accounts receivable have been reduced by an allowance for amounts that management estimates are un-collectable.  This estimated allowance is based primarily on management’s evaluation of the financial condition ofthe Company’s customers.

**Inventories**Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.In addition, management regularly reviews inventory for obsolescence to determine whether any additional write-down is necessary. Various factors are considered in making this determination, including expected program life, recent sales history, predicted trends and market conditions.If actual demand or market conditions are less favorable than thoseprojected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

The Company procures materials and manufactures products to customer requirements. Raw materials are stated at the lower of cost or market as determined by the weighted average cost method.

Work in process consists of actual production costs, including factory overhead and tooling costs, reduced by costs attributable to units for which sales have been recognized.  Such costs under contracts aredetermined by the average cost method based on the estimated average cost of all units expected to be produced under the contract. Inventories relating to long-term contracts are classified as current assets although a portion of the inventory is not expected to berealized within one year.

**Income Taxes**Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statementcarrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  The Company has considered future taxable income analyses and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. Should the Company determinethat it would not be able to recognize all or part of its net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the carrying value of the deferred tax assets would be charged to income in the period in which such determination is made.

**Goodwill and Other Intangibles**In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives and goodwill are not subject to amortization.All other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives.  Goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assetmight be impaired.  This testing requires comparison of carrying values to fair values, and when appropriate, the carrying value of impaired assets is reduced to fair value.  During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company completed its annual impairmenttest and determined that estimates of fair value are reasonable. Different assumptions regarding such factors as sales levels and price changes, labor and material cost changes, interest rates and productivity could affect such valuations.

**Fair Value of Financial Instruments**The Company considered the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, securities and other, including accounts receivable and accounts payable to approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these financialinstruments.

The Company has considered amounts outstanding under the long-term debt agreements and determined that carrying amounts recorded on the financial statement are consistent with the estimated fair value as of July 1,2007.

****

**Property, Plant and Equipment**Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost and includes additions and improvement which extend the remaining useful life of the assets.  Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method.

**Cash Equivalents**The Company considers cash equivalents to be temporary investments which are readily convertible to cash, such as certificates of deposit, commercial paper and treasury bills with original maturities of less than threemonths.

**Cash Advances**The Company receives cash advances from customers under certain contracts. Cash advances are usually liquidated over the period of product deliveries.

**Employee Benefit Plans**The Company has a contributory savings plan covering certain employees.  The Company expenses all plan costs as incurred.

The Company offers a non-qualified deferred compensation program to certain key employees whereby they may defer a portion of their annual compensation for payment upon retirement plus a guaranteed return. The program is unfunded; however, the Company purchases Company-owned life insurance contracts through which the Company will recover a portion of its cost upon the death of the employee.

The Company also offers an employee stock purchase plan that allows any eligible employee to purchase common stock at the end of each quarter at 15% below the market price as of the first or last day of thequarter, whichever is lower. The Company recognizes an expense for the 15% discount.

**Stock-Based Compensation**Effective July 4, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”). This statement replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB No. 25.  SFAS No.123R requires that all stock-based compensation be recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such cost be measured at the fair value of the award.  This statement was adopted using the modified prospective method of application, whichrequires the Company to recognize compensation expense on a prospective basis. Therefore, prior-period financial statements have not been restated. Under this method, in addition to reflecting compensation expense for new share-based awards, expense is alsorecognized to reflect the remaining service period of awards that had been included in pro forma disclosures in prior periods. SFAS No. 123R also requires that excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises be reflected as financing cash inflows instead ofoperating cash inflows.

Prior to fiscal 2006, the Company applied the intrinsic value-based method as outlined in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB No. 25”) andrelated interpretations, in accounting for stock options and share units granted under these programs. Under the intrinsic value-based method, no compensation expense was recognized if the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options was equal to orgreater than the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. Accordingly, prior to fiscal year 2006, no compensation cost was recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of income on stock options granted to employees, since all optionsgranted under the Company’s share incentive programs had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant.

During the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007 and July 2, 2006, the Company was notified that shares issued upon the exercise of incentive stock options (“ISOs”) were sold prior to being held by the employee for 12months.  These disqualifying dispositions resulted in an excess tax benefit for the Company.  Since the ISOs vested prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the entire tax benefit of $95,000 for fiscal year 2007 and $184,000 for fiscal year 2006 was recorded asan increase to additional paid-in capital.

For the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007, total stock-based compensation was $1.2 million ($733,000 after tax), equivalent to earnings per basic and diluted share of $0.05. For the fiscal year ended July 2, 2006, totalstock-based compensation was $1.5 million ($902,000 after tax) equivalent to earnings per basic and diluted share of $0.06.

For the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007, stock-based compensation attributable to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R was $61,000 ($37,000 after tax), equivalent to earnings per basic and diluted share of $0.00. For the fiscal yearended July 2, 2006, stock-based compensation attributable to the adoption of SPAS No. 123R was $629,000 ($391,000 after tax) equivalent to earnings per basic and diluted share of $0.02.

As of July 1, 2007 and July 2, 2006, the total unrecognized compensation, included in selling administrative expense, related to nonvested awards, including stock options and performance units, was $1.2 millionpretax and the period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately 1.7 and 1.6 years, respectively.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if SFAS No. 123R had been applied to all outstanding awards for the years ended July 1, 2007, July 2, 2006 and July 3,2005:

No stock options were issued in the years ended July 1, 2007 and July 2, 2006.

The Company has a program to award performance units tied to financial performance to certain key executives. The awards have a three-year performance period and compensation expense is recognized over three years. Included indiluted shares at July 1, 2007 were 108,084 shares as the performance condition for fiscal year 2007 had been met.  The Company issued 79,693 shares related to the fiscal year 2006 performance and recognized related compensation in fiscal 2007 and 2006. The Company issued 56,251 shares related to the fiscal year 2005 award and related compensation expense was recognized in fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005.

All stock options were granted at prices not less than fair market value of the common stock at the grant date.  The fair value of stock options granted in fiscal year 2005 was estimated on the date of grant using theBlack-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3.8%, expected dividend yield of 0%; expected life of six years; and expected volatility of 66.5%.

All stock options outstanding at July 1, 2007, July 2, 2006 and July 3, 2005 were dilutive and included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.  These options expire in various periods through2014.

**Recently Issued Accounting Standards**In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation Number 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”).  FIN 48 establishes a recognitionthreshold and measurement for income tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  FIN 48 also prescribes a two-step evaluation process for taxpositions.  The first step is recognition and the second is measurement.  For recognition, an enterprise judgmentally determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of relatedappeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position.  If the tax position meets the more likely than not recognition threshold, it is measured and recognized in the financial statements as the largest amount of tax benefit that isgreater than 50% likely of being realized.  If a tax position does not meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the benefit of that position is not recognized in the financial statements.

Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold at the effective date of FIN 48 may be recognized, or continue to be recognized, upon adoption of FIN 48.  The cumulative effect of applying theprovisions of FIN 48 shall be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for that fiscal year.  FIN 48 will apply to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with earlier adoption permitted.  The Company does not anticipatethe adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), to clarify the definition of fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value and expand the disclosureson fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or the price paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). SFAS No.157 also stipulates that, as a market-based measurement, fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (a)market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (i.e., observable inputs) and (b) the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the bestinformation available in the circumstances (i.e., unobservable inputs). SFAS No. 157 becomes effective for the Company in its fiscal year ending June 30, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 on its consolidatedfinancial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-4, “Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefits Aspects of EndorsementSplit-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements” (“EITF 06-4”).  This addresses only endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements that provide a benefit to an employee that extends to postretirement periods. In an endorsement split-dollararrangement, the employer owns and controls the policy, and the employer and an employee split the insurance policy’s cash surrender value and/or death benefits.

The EITF consensus would require that the deferred compensation or postretirement benefit aspects of an endorsement-type split-dollar life insurance arrangement be recognized as a liability by the employer and that theobligation is not effectively settled by the purchase of a life insurance policy. The liability for future benefits would be recognized based on the substantive agreement with the employee, which may be either to provide a future death benefit or to pay for thefuture cost of the life insurance.

If ratified, EITF 06-4 will become effective for the Company in its fiscal year ending June 30, 2009.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of EITF 06-04 on its consolidated financialstatements.

In September 2006, the FASB’s EITF reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-5, “Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance—Determining the Amount That Could Be Realized in Accordance with FASB TechnicalBulletin No. 85-4, *Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance,”* (“EITF 06-5”).  This consensus explains how to determine the amount that could be realized from a life insurance contract, which is the measurement amount for the asset inaccordance with Technical Bulletin 85-4. The consensus would require policyholders to determine the amount that could be realized under a life insurance contract assuming individual policies are surrendered.

If ratified, EITF 06-5 will become effective for the Company in its fiscal year ending June 29, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of EITF 06-5 on its consolidated financial statements.

On March 22, 2007, the Company sold its headquarters building complex for $9.6 million. Simultaneously, the Company entered into a six-year lease with the building’s new owner. The lease on the building qualifies as anoperating lease. LaBarge’s continuing involvement is more than a minor part, but less than substantially all of the use of the property. The gain on the transaction was $3.5 million. The profit on the sale, in excess of the present value of the minimum leasepayments over the lease term, is $635,000 pretax ($391,000 after tax) and is recorded as a gain in other income in the year ended July 1, 2007. The remainder of the gain will be amortized over the six years of the lease as a reduction in rent expense. Of this amount,$133,000 was recognized in the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007.

The obligations for future minimum lease payments as of July 1, 2007, and the amortization of the remaining deferred gain is:*(in thousands)*

|---------|------------|----------------------------|

The Company has a qualified contributory savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for employees meeting certain service requirements.  The plan allows eligible employees to contribute up to 60% of their compensation,with the Company matching 50% of the first $25 per month and 25% of the excess on the first 8% of this contribution.  During fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, Company matching contributions were $456,000, $449,000, $428,000, respectively.

At the discretion of the Board of Directors, the Company may also make contributions dependent on profits each year for the benefit of all eligible employees under the plan.  There were no such contributions for fiscal2007, 2006 and 2005.

The Company has a deferred compensation plan for selected employees who, due to Internal Revenue Service guidelines, cannot take full advantage of the contributory savings plan.  This plan, which is not required to befunded, allows eligible employees to defer portions of their current compensation and the Company guarantees an interest rate of between prime and prime plus 2%.  To support the deferred compensation plan, the Company may elect to purchase Company-owned lifeinsurance.  The increase in the cash value of the life insurance policies exceeded the premiums paid by $85,000, $79,000 and $73,000 in fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.  The cash surrender value of the Company-owned life insurance related todeferred compensation is included in other assets along with other policies owned by the Company, and was $1.5 million at July 1, 2007, compared with $1.4 million at July 2, 2006.  The liability for the deferred compensation and interest thereon isincluded in accrued employee compensation and was $4.3 million at July 1, 2007, compared with $3.7 million at July 2, 2006.

On March 22, 2007, the Company sold its headquarters building complex for $9.6 million. Simultaneously, the Company entered into a six-year lease with the building’s new owner. The lease on the building qualifies as anoperating lease. LaBarge’s continuing involvement is more than a minor part, but less than substantially all of the use of the property. The gain on the transaction was $3.5 million. The profit on the sale, in excess of the present value of the minimum leasepayments over the lease term, is $635,000 pretax ($391,000 after tax) and is recorded as a gain in other income in the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007. The remainder of the gain will be amortized over the six years of the lease as a reduction in rent expense. Of thisamount, $133,000 was recognized in the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007.

The Company regularly reviews its potential tax liabilities for tax years subject to audit.

In October 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 was signed into law. The new law phases out the Extraterritorial Income Exclusion (“EIE”) benefit, phases in a new deduction on U.S. manufacturing income, andallows the repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings at a reduced rate in 2005 subject to certain limitations. Due to the fact that the Company’s fiscal and tax year began on June 28, 2004, the new law did not materially impact the Company’s fiscalyear 2005 provision. The only impact on the Company’s provision was a slight reduction in the EIE benefit earned in the last six months of fiscal year 2005. The Company has no foreign earnings to repatriate and the new manufacturing deductions did not becomeeffective for the Company until fiscal year 2006. In fiscal years 2007 and 2006, the new law resulted in a reduction of $187,000 and $185,000, respectively, in the tax provision.

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are presented below:

A valuation allowance is provided, if necessary, to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level, which, more likely than not, will be realized.  The net deferred tax assets reflect management’s belief that it is morelikely than not that future operating results will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.

Total cash payments for federal and state income taxes were $7.7 million for fiscal 2007, $8.0 million for fiscal 2006 and $5.9 million for fiscal 2005.

The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the current market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option.

The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the fiscal years ended July 1, 2007 and July 2, 2006 was $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The exercise period for all stock options generally may notexceed 10 years from the date of grant. Stock option grants to individuals generally become exercisable over a service period of one to five years.

There were no stock options granted in the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007.

***Performance Units and Restricted Stock***

The Company made awards under the LTIP in January 2005. The Company’s LTIP provides for the issuance of performance units, which will be settled in stock subject to the achievement of the Company’s financial goals.Settlement will be made pursuant to a range of opportunities relative to net earnings. No settlement will occur for results below the minimum threshold and additional shares shall be issued if the performance exceeds the targeted goals. The compensation cost ofperformance units is subject to adjustment based upon the attainability of the target goals.

Upon achievement of the performance goals, restricted shares are awarded in the employee’s name but are still subject to a two-year vesting condition. If employment is terminated (other than due to death or disability)prior to the vesting period, the shares are forfeited. Compensation expense is recognized over the performance period plus vesting period. The awards are treated as a liability award during the performance period and as an equity award once the performance targetsare settled.

For the fiscal years ended 2007, 2006 and 2005 compensation expense related to the LTIP was $1.1 million, $757,000 and 203,000, respectively.
