PART I

Item 1.

Business.

General

RELM Wireless Corporation (RELM) provides two-way radio communications equipment of the highest quality and reliability.

In business for 60 years, RELM is a public company (Amex:RWC) designing, manufacturing and marketing wireless communications products consisting of two-way land mobile radios, repeaters, base stations, and related components and subsystems. Two-way land mobile radios can be units that are hand-held (portable) or installed in vehicles (mobile). Repeaters expand the range of two-way land mobile radios, enabling them to operate over a wider area. Base station components and subsystems are installed at radio transmitter sites to improve performance by enhancing the signal and reducing or eliminating signal interference and enabling the use of one antenna for both transmission and reception. We employ both analog and digital technologies in our products. Our digital technology is compliant with the Project 25 standard of the Association of Public Communications Officials (APCO Project 25, or P25).

We offer products under three brand names: BK Radio, RELM/BK and RELM. Generally, BK Radio-branded products serve the government and public safety market, while RELM-branded products serve the business and industrial market. RELM/BK-branded products serve both of these markets.

BK Radio-branded products consist of high-specification land-mobile radio equipment for professional radio users primarily in government and public safety applications. These products have more extensive features and capabilities than those offered in the RELM and RELM/BK lines. Our P25 digital products are marketed under the BK Radio brand.

RELM-branded products provide basic, inexpensive, yet feature-rich and reliable, two-way communications for commercial and industrial users, such as hotels, construction firms, schools, and taxicab and limousine companies. Typically these users are not radio professionals, and require easy, fast, inexpensive communication among a defined group of users.

RELM/BK-branded products enhance our ability to address the requirements of a broader range of LMR users. These products are professional-grade in performance and durability with a wide range of features in small packages at affordable prices. They provide an effective migration path from our RELM-branded products to our highest-specification BK Radio products.

We provide superior products and value to a wide array of customers with demanding requirements; including, for example, emergency, public safety and military customers of federal and state government agencies, as well as various commercial concerns.  Our two-way radio products excel in applications within harsh and hazardous conditions. They offer high-specification performance, durability and reliability at a low cost relative to comparable offerings.

Our principal executive offices are located at 7100 Technology Drive, West Melbourne, Florida 32904 and the telephone number is (321) 984-1414.

Events of 2006

In September 2006, we introduced a new portable repeater in a lightweight, easily transportable, waterproof carrying case, the Rapid Deployment Portable Repeater (RDPR), also known as The Go Box, that enables emergency responders to quickly and effectively extend their wireless radio communications network, or set up a new network on the move.

In September 2006, we received orders from multiple government agencies valued at $5.1 million. This included orders from the Department of Defense (DOD), Homeland Security, the Department of Interior (DOI) and the USDA Forest Service. Approximately 84% of the orders were for digital P25 compliant radios. These orders were shipped during the third and fourth quarters of 2006.

In July 2006, we introduced the DPH-CMD, a new digital, high-specification, enhanced and expanded portable radio for field command and coordination functions. The DPH-CMD, like its analog counterpart, is capable of field communications over 500 channels, with 25 groups of 20 channels per group, in the 136-174 MHz VHF frequency band. Additionally, the DPH-CMD is compliant with the APCO Project 25 digital standard for interoperability. Meeting rigid MIL-STD 810 C/D/E military specifications, the new product has also received Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Type Acceptance as well as Industry Canada (IC) certification.

In July 2006, the United States Postal Service (USPS) exercised its first renewal option, extending the term of its contract with us by one year to July 2007. We were initially awarded the exclusive contract to provide portable two-way radios to the USPS in July 2005. The contract was for an initial term of one year and provides for four one-year renewals at the option of the USPS. It is terminable by either party upon 180 days written notice. The contract does not specify equipment purchase dates or quantities.

In July 2006, we were named as the exclusive subcontractor on a contract issued by a federal agency of the Department of Homeland Security to provide radio communications equipment to locations nationwide. The prime contractor entered into a four-year exclusive requirements agreement with the agency starting in July 2006. Under our relationship with the prime contractor, we will exclusively supply APCO Project 25 digital and analog two-way radio equipment as directed by the prime contractor. The agreement, with a maximum value of $3 million, does not specify purchase dates or quantities of equipment. We began supplying equipment during the third quarter 2006.

In June 2006, we modified our $3.5 million secured revolving credit facility. Under our modification agreement with the lender, the secured revolving credit facility's maturity date was extended to January 1, 2008 from January 1, 2007 and its interest rate for borrowings was reduced initially by 0.50% and an additional 0.15% if our Net Profit (as defined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America) for each fiscal quarter after the quarter ending June 30, 2006 is at least $1.7 million. Prior to the modification agreement, the secured revolving credit facilitys interest rate was prime-plus 1% (with a minimum rate of 6.25%). The modification agreement also reduced administrative fees and reporting requirements under the secured revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2006, there were no borrowings outstanding under the secured revolving credit facility.

In April 2006, we introduced the RELM/BK-branded RMV800 and RMU800 mobile radios for public safety emergency response and coordination applications. The new RELM/BK RM800 mobile radios have 512 channels with 256 programmable zones. The RELM/BK RMV800 operates in the 136-174MHz VHF frequency range, and the RELM/BK RMU800 operates in the 450-512 MHz UHF frequency range. A 5-watt audio output and voice compander assure exceptionally strong and clear audio quality while an optional 12-watt amplifier can be used for public address systems or situations with distracting noise.

In March 2006, our P25 Radio, the DPHX5102X, was certified as intrinsically safe by Factory Mutual, a government-certified company charged with enforcing safety standards in hazardous environments. Intrinsically safe (IS) products are designed for use in hazardous environments where flammable gas, liquid or combustible dust may be present, including oil refineries, mines, chemical plants and flour mills. To be deemed intrinsically safe, products must pass a rigorous series of tests that certify they will not emit electrical sparks during normal operation.

In January 2006, we received orders totaling approximately $2.4 from federal and state government agencies for digital P25 portable and mobile radios. These orders were shipped during the first quarter 2006.

Industry Overview

Land mobile radio (LMR) communications consist of hand-held (portable) and mobile (vehicle mounted) two-way radios commonly used by the public safety sector (e.g., police, fire, and emergency medical personnel), commercial business concerns (e.g., corporate disaster recovery, hotels, airports, farms, taxis, and construction firms), and government agencies within the United States and abroad. LMR systems are constructed to meet an organizations specific communication needs. The cost of a complete system can vary widely depending on the size and configuration. Likewise, the cost of radio sets can range from under $200 for a basic analog portable, to thousands of dollars for a fully featured P25 digital unit. Typically, there are no recurring airtime usage charges. Accordingly, LMR usage patterns are considerably different from those for cellular and other wireless communications tools. LMR usage is characterized by frequent calls of short duration. A typical user may transmit and receive 20 to 50 calls per day, with most calls lasting less than 30 seconds. The average useful life is 8 years for a portable radio and 11 years for a mobile, depending upon the application in which the unit is deployed and its handling.

LMR systems are the longest-used form of wireless dispatch communications used in the U.S., having been first placed in service in 1921. LMR is also the most widely used form of dispatch communications in the United States. Initially, LMR was used almost exclusively by law enforcement. At that time all radio communications were transmitted in an analog format. Analog transmissions typically consist of a voice or other signal modulated directly onto a continuous radio carrier wave. Over time, advances in technology decreased the cost of LMR products and increased its popularity and usage by businesses and other agencies. To respond to the growing usage, additional radio frequency spectrum was allocated by the FCC for LMR use.

Until recently, the LMR industry was characterized by slow growth, reflecting several factors:

·

LMR is a mature industry, having been in existence for over 80 years;

·

some LMR users are in mature industry segments that have experienced slow growth rates; and

·

most significantly, growth has been hampered by the lack of available radio spectrum, which has prevented existing users from expanding their systems and hindered efforts of many potential new users from obtaining licenses for new systems.

As a result of the lack of available spectrum, several years ago the FCC mandated that new LMR equipment utilize technology that is more spectrum-efficient. This effectively requires LMR users to migrate to digital technology. Responding to the mandate, APCO, in concert with several LMR manufacturers, including RELM, recommended an industry standard for digital LMR devices that would meet the FCC spectrum-efficiency requirements and provide solutions to several problems experienced primarily by public safety users. The standard is called Project 25. The primary objectives of Project 25 are to i) allow effective and reliable communication among users of compliant equipment, regardless of its manufacturer, known as interoperability, ii) maximize radio spectrum efficiency, and iii) promote competition among LMR providers through an open system architecture.

Although the FCC does not require public safety agencies or any radio users to purchase P25 equipment or otherwise adopt the standard, compliance with the standard is increasingly becoming the key consideration for government and public safety purchasers. Accordingly, we anticipate that the demand for P25 equipment will fuel LMR market growth as users upgrade equipment to achieve interoperability and comply with the FCC mandate. Presently, the migration to P25 equipment is primarily limited to government and public safety agencies. Radio users in the business and industrial market continue to utilize predominantly analog LMR products.

The North American LMR market is estimated to currently approach $5 billion in annual sales, growing to over $7 billion in annual sales by 2010. Presently, one manufacturer dominates the market. However, the open architecture of the P25 standard is designed to eliminate the ability of one or more major companies to lockout competitors. Formerly, because of proprietary characteristics incorporated in many analog LMR systems, a customer was effectively precluded from purchasing additional LMR products from a company other than the initial provider of the system. Additionally, the system infrastructure technology was prohibitive for smaller communications companies to develop. P25 provides an environment in which users will have a wider selection of LMR suppliers, including smaller companies such as RELM.

Description of Products

We design, manufacture, and market wireless communications equipment consisting of two-way radios, repeaters, base stations, and related components and subsystems. Two-way radios can be units that are hand-held (portable) or installed in vehicles (mobile). Repeaters expand the range of two-way radios, enabling them to operate over a wider area. Base station components and subsystems are installed at radio transmitter sites to improve performance by enhancing the signal, reducing or eliminating signal interference and enabling the use of one antenna for both transmission and reception.

We employ both analog and digital technologies in our products. Our digital products are compliant with P25 specifications.

Description of Markets

Government and Public Safety Market

The government and public safety market includes the military, fire, rescue, law enforcement and emergency medical personnel. In most instances, BK Radio branded products serve this market and are sold either directly to end-users, or through two-way communications dealers. Government and public safety sales represented approximately 82% of total sales for 2006, 76% of total sales for 2005 and 76% of total sales for 2004.

Government and public safety users currently use products that employ either P25 digital or analog technology. However, public safety users in federal, state and local government agencies and certain other countries are migrating at an increasing rate to digital P25 products. The evolution of the standard and compliant digital products is explained in the Industry Overviewsection starting on page 3 of this report.

Business and Industrial Market

This market includes enterprises of all sizes that require fast and affordable, push-to-talk communication among a discrete group of users such as corporate disaster recovery, hotels, construction firms, schools, and taxicab and limousine companies. Users in this market continue to use predominantly analog products. We offer products to this market under the RELM and RELM/BK brand names. Our sales in this market may be direct to end-users or to dealers and distributors who then resell the products. Our sales to this market represented approximately 18% of total sales for 2006, 24% of total sales for 2005 and 24% of total sales for 2004.

Engineering, Research and Development

Our engineering and development activities are conducted by a team of 22 employees. Their primary development focus is the execution of our plan to design P25 digital products. Our first P25 digital product, named the DPH, was introduced to the market in 2003. Shortly thereafter, the DPH was added to the contract to supply agencies of the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI) with digital two-way communications equipment.

Most recently in 2006 our team completed development of a rapid deployment portable repeater, a P25 digital portable radio for field command and coordination functions, mobile radios for public safety emergency response control, and an intrinsically-safe-certified portable radio designed for use in hazardous environments where flammable gas, liquid or combustible dust may be present.

In 2005, we completed development of and introduced a new line of mobile radios with both high-power (45 watts) and low-power (25 watts) models, an enhanced analog portable radio for field command and coordination functions, two models of portable analog radios, marking the debut of the new RELM/BK product line of mid-range professional-grade radios, and our P25 digital mobile radio, the DMH.

In 2004, we completed development of digital encryption capabilities for the DPH. The new encryption capabilities meet Data Encryption Standard and Advanced Encryption Standard specifications, and the DPH meets or exceeds technical specifications for compliance with the P25 standard for digital public safety radio equipment, including encryption. Encryption enables secured two-way communications and is important to many LMR users particularly those involved in public safety, security and disaster recovery functions. We plan to develop and introduce a broad range of additional P25 digital products over the next two years.

A segment of our engineering team is responsible for product specifications based on customer requirements and supervising quality assurance activities. They also have primary responsibility for applied engineering, production engineering and the specification compliance of contract manufacturers.

For 2006, 2005 and 2004, our engineering and development expenditures were approximately $3.1 million, $2.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

Intellectual Property

We presently have no United States patents in force. We hold several trademarks related to the names RELM and BK Radio and certain product names. We also rely on trade secret laws and employee and third party non-disclosure agreements to protect our intellectual property rights.

Manufacturing and Raw Materials

Our manufacturing strategy is to utilize the highest quality and most cost effective resources available for every aspect of our manufacturing. Consistent with that strategy, we have successfully implemented several outside contract manufacturing arrangements. These arrangements, some of which are with offshore concerns, have been instrumental in decreasing our product costs significantly, allowing us to improve our competitive position and gross margins.

Contract manufacturers produce various subassemblies and products on our behalf. Generally, the contract manufacturers procure raw materials from RELM-approved sources and complete manufacturing activities in accordance with our specifications. An Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) manufacturing agreement governs the business relationship with each contract manufacturer. These agreements typically have a five-year term and may be renewed upon agreement by both parties. The scope of the contracts may also be expanded to include new products in the future.

We plan to continue to utilize contract manufacturing where it furthers our business objectives. This strategy allows us to focus on our core technological competencies of product design and development, and to reduce the substantial capital investment required to manufacture our products. We also believe that our use of experienced, high-volume manufacturers will provide greater manufacturing specialization and expertise, higher levels of flexibility and responsiveness, and faster delivery of product. To ensure that products manufactured by others meet our standards, our West Melbourne production and engineering team works closely with its ISO 9002 industry-qualified contract manufacturers in all key aspects of the production process. We establish product specifications, select the components and, in some cases, the suppliers. We retain all document control. We also work with our contract manufacturers to improve process control and product design, and to conduct periodic on-site inspections.

We rely upon a limited number of both domestic and foreign suppliers for several key products and components. We place purchase orders from time to time with these suppliers and have no guaranteed supply arrangements. In addition, we obtain certain components from a single source. The amount of these components is not material relative to total component and raw material purchases. During 2006, 2005, and 2004, our operations have not been impaired due to delays from single source suppliers. However, the absence of a single source component could delay the manufacture of finished products. We manage the risk of such delays by securing second sources and redesigning products in response to component shortages or obsolescence. We strive to maintain strong relations with all our suppliers. We anticipate that the current relationships, or others that are comparable, will be available to us in the future.

Seasonal Impact

Demand for our BK Radio branded products is typically the greatest during the summer season because of the increased forest fire activity during that time of year.

Significant Customers

Sales to the United States Government represented approximately 53%, 51% and 46% of our total sales for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These sales were primarily to the United States Forest Service (USFS) and the DOI.

Backlog

Our order backlog was approximately $3.3 million, $3.1 million, and $2.7 as of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Competition

The North American LMR market is estimated to currently approach $5 billion in annual sales, growing to over $7 billion in annual sales by 2010. We compete with many domestic and foreign companies in this market. One dominant competitor holds a significant market share. We compete by capitalizing on our advantages and strengths, which include price, quality, speed, and customer responsiveness.

Employees

As of December 31, 2006, we had 92 full-time employees, most of whom are located at our West Melbourne, Florida facility; 46 of these employees are engaged in direct manufacturing or manufacturing support, 22 in engineering, 14 in sales and marketing, and 10 in headquarters, accounting and human resources activities. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining agreements, nor has there ever been a labor-related work stoppage. We believe our relations with our employees are good.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

Various portions of this report contain forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of certain risk factors, including those set forth below and elsewhere in this report.

Our industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology

Our business could suffer if we are unable to keep pace with rapid technological changes and product development in our industry. The market for our LMR products is characterized by ongoing technological development, evolving industry standards and frequent product introductions. The LMR industry is experiencing a transition from analog LMR products to digital LMR products. In addition, the APCO Project 25 standard, the new standard for LMR equipment, is being increasingly adopted and the market demand for APCO Project 25 products is growing.

We depend on the success of our LMR product line

We currently depend on our LMR products as our sole source of sales. A decline in the price of and/or demand for LMR products, as a result of competition, technological change, the introduction of new products by us or others or a failure to manage product transitions successfully, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our future success will largely depend on the successful introduction and sale of new analog and digital LMR products. Even if we successfully develop these products, we cannot guarantee that they will achieve market acceptance.

We are engaged in a highly competitive industry

We face intense competition from other LMR manufacturers, and the failure to compete effectively could adversely affect our market share and results of operations. The largest producer of LMR products in the world currently is estimated to have well in excess of half the market for LMR products. This producer is also the worlds largest producer of P25 products. Some of our competitors are significantly larger and have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we have. Some also have established reputations for success in developing and producing LMR products. These advantages may allow them:

·

to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements which may render our products obsolete or less marketable;

·

to engage in more extensive research and development;

·

to undertake more far-reaching marketing campaigns;

·

to be able to take advantage of acquisitions and other opportunities;

·

to adopt more aggressive pricing policies; and

·

make more attractive offers to potential employees, strategic partners and advertisers.

Many of our competitors have established extensive networks of retail locations and multiple distribution channels, and so enjoy a competitive advantage over us in these areas as well. We may not be able to compete successfully and competitive pressures may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

An increase in the demand for P25 products could benefit competitors who are better financed and have inventories that will meet such demand. P25 products have been brought to the market by several of our competitors. Our first P25 portable radio was brought to market in 2003. Bringing such products to market and achieving a significant market penetration for these products will continue to require substantial expenditures of funds. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing and marketing, on a timely basis, fully functional product enhancements or new products that respond to these and other technological advances, or that our new products will

---

be accepted by customers. An inability to successfully develop and/or market products could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Government agencies may incur budget deficits and budgets may be delayed or limited

Government budget deficits at the federal, state and local levels continue to be a spending factor for certain government agencies. We expect continued prioritization of limited funds for public safety applications. However, we have no assurance that funding for areas where our products may be deployed will not be reduced or even eliminated.

We depend on a limited number of manufacturers to produce our products and on a limited number of suppliers of components

We contract with manufacturers to produce our products and our dependence on a limited number of contract manufacturers exposes us to certain risks, including shortages of manufacturing capacity, reduced control over delivery schedules, quality assurance, production yield and costs. If any of our manufacturers terminate production or cannot meet our production requirements, we may have to rely on other contract manufacturing sources or identify and qualify new contract manufacturers. The lead-time required to qualify a new manufacturer could range from approximately two to six months. Despite efforts to do so, we may not be able to identify or qualify new contract manufacturers in a timely and cost effective manner and these new manufacturers may not allocate sufficient capacity to us in order to meet our requirements. Any significant delay in our ability to obtain adequate quantities of our products from our current or alternative contract manufacturers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, our dependence on limited and sole source suppliers of components involves several risks, including a potential inability to obtain an adequate supply of components, price increases, late deliveries and poor component quality. Disruption or termination of the supply of these components could delay shipments of our products. The lead-time required for orders of some of our components is as much as six months. In addition, the lead-time required to qualify new suppliers for our components is as much as six months. If we are unable to accurately predict our component needs, or if our component supply is disrupted, we may miss market opportunities by not being able to meet the demand for our products. This may damage our relationships with current and prospective customers and, thus, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We depend heavily on sales to the U.S. Government

We are subject to risks associated with our reliance on sales to the U.S. Government. For the year ended December 31, 2006, approximately 53% of our LMR sales were to agencies and departments of the federal government. These sales were primarily to the USFS and the DOI. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain this government business. Our ability to maintain our government business will depend on many factors outside of our control, including competitive factors, changes in government personnel making contract decisions, and political factors. The loss of sales to the U.S. Government would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Retention of our executive officers and key personnel is critical to our business

Our success is largely dependent on the personal efforts of our President and Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, our Vice President of Operations and our Engineering Vice Presidents. We do not have employment agreements with these individuals, and we cannot be sure that we will retain their services. In 2006, we obtained key-man life insurance of $5 million on the life of our President and Chief Executive Officer. Notwithstanding such life insurance, the loss of services from any of our executive officers due to any reason whatsoever could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our success is also dependent upon our ability to hire and retain qualified operations, development and other personnel. Competition for qualified personnel in our industry is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be able to hire or retain necessary personnel. The inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We may not be able to manage our growth

Acquisitions and other business transactions may disrupt or otherwise have a negative impact on our business and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will complete any asset purchases or other business transactions or that any such transactions which are completed will prove favorable to our business. We do not intend to seek stockholder approval for any such transactions unless required by applicable law or regulation. We hope to grow rapidly, and the failure to manage our growth could adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition. Our business plan contemplates, among other things, continued development of our LMR product lines through internal development as well as acquisitions, and, as a result, significant growth in our customer base. This growth and continued development, if it materializes, could place a significant strain on our management, employees, operations and financial capabilities. In the event of this expansion, we have to continue to implement and improve our operating systems and to expand, train, and manage our employee base. If we are unable to manage and integrate our expanding operations effectively, our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We are subject to government regulation

Failure to comply with government regulations applicable to our business could result in penalties. Our LMR products are regulated by the FCC. As a public company we are subject to regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with all applicable federal regulations governing our business and we believe that we have obtained all licenses necessary for the operation of our business. Failure to comply with these requirements and regulations or to respond to changes in these requirements and regulations could result in penalties on us such as fines, restrictions on operations or a temporary or permanent closure of our facility. These penalties could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition and cause a decline of our stock price. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will not be adversely affected by existing or new regulatory requirements or interpretations.

We engage in business with manufacturers located in other countries

We engage in business with manufacturers located in other countries. We place a substantial amount of emphasis on manufacturing in other countries. Approximately 60% of our material, subassembly and product procurements in 2006 were sourced internationally. Accordingly, we are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies operating solely in the United States. These include the risks associated with the political, economic and legal environments, among others. Our business, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected by, among other things, changes in the political and social conditions in these countries, and changes in government policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflation measures and method of taxation.

The governments of these countries may implement economic reform policies at any time. It is possible that changes in leadership could lead to changes in economic policy. Additionally, the laws and regulations applicable to us may be subject to change, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

We carry substantial quantities of inventory

We carry a significant amount of inventory to service customer requirements in a timely manner. If we are unable to sell this inventory over a commercially reasonable time, we may be required to take inventory markdowns in the future, which could reduce our net sales and gross margins. In addition, it is critical to our success that we accurately predict trends in consumer demand, including seasonal fluctuations, in the future and do not overstock unpopular products or fail to sufficiently stock popular products. Both scenarios could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

We rely on a combination of contract, trademark and trade secret laws to protect our intellectual property rights

We own no United States patents. We hold several trademarks related to the RELM and BK Radio names and certain product names. As part of our confidentiality procedures, we generally enter into non-disclosure agreements with our employees, distributors and customers, and limit access to and distribution of our proprietary information.



9





---

We also rely on trade secret laws to protect our intellectual property rights. Although we believe that trademark protection, trade secret laws and non-disclosure agreements should prevent another party from manufacturing and selling competing products under one or more of our trademarks or otherwise violating our intellectual property rights, there can be no assurance that the steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property rights will be successful. It may also be particularly difficult to protect our products and intellectual property under the laws of certain countries in which our products are or may be manufactured or sold.

Our fluctuating quarterly operating results could cause volatility in our stock price

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, resulting in volatility for the market price for our common stock. Other factors affecting the volatility of our stock price include:

·

future announcements concerning us or our competitors;

·

the announcement or introduction of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;

·

changes in product pricing policies by us or our competitors;

·

changes in earnings estimates by us or our competitors by securities analysts;

·

additions or departures of key personnel; and

·

sales of our common stock.

Acts of war or terrorism could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition

Terrorist acts or acts of war (wherever located around the world) may cause damage or disruption to our business, employees, suppliers, manufacturers, and customers that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. The economic uncertainty stemming from terrorist attacks may continue. While we cannot predict what impact a prolonged war on terrorism will have on the United States economy, we plan to control expenses, continue to invest in our business and make capital expenditures when they will increase productivity, profitably, or sales.

We may be subject to costly litigation resulting in an adverse affect on our financial condition

We are currently involved in arbitration as a defendant. While there is no way to predict the success or failure of any litigation, we are vigorously defending this action. Although we believe our products and technology do not infringe on any proprietary rights of others, as the number of competing products available in the market increases and the functions of those products further overlap, infringement claims may increase. Any such claims, with or without merit, could result in costly litigation or might require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. Any successful infringement claim could have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, agreements regarding the purchase or sale of certain assets and businesses could require us to indemnify the purchasers or sellers of such assets or businesses for any damages they may suffer if third party claims give rise to losses. Any such claims could require us to pay substantial damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Certain provisions in our charter documents and Nevada law may discourage a potential takeover

Certain provisions of our articles of incorporation and Nevada law could discourage or prevent potential acquisitions of our company that stockholders may consider favorable. Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock with such designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. Preferred stock could be issued, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company, which could be unfavorable to our shareholders.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock

We intend to retain earnings to fund the development and growth of our business and, therefore, do not intend paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Our future decisions concerning the payment of dividends on our common stock will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition and capital expenditure needs, as well as such other factors as the board of directors, in its sole discretion, deem relevant. In addition, our credit facility, under which no borrowings are currently outstanding, restricts our ability to pay dividends.

We may not be able to maintain our American Stock Exchange listing

Our common stock has been listed on the American Stock Exchange since October 14, 2005. There is no assurance that we will be able to satisfy the American Stock Exchanges continued listing standards, which include, among others, minimum stockholders equity, market capitalization, pre-tax income and per share sales price. If our common stock is de-listed from the American Stock Exchange, we would be forced to list our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or some other quotation medium, depending on our ability to meet the specific requirements of those quotation systems. Selling our common stock would be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold and transactions could be delayed. These factors could result in lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for shares of our common stock. If this happens, we will have greater difficulty accessing the capital markets to raise any additional necessary capital.

Future sales of shares of our common stock may negatively affect our stock price and impair our ability to raise equity capital

Approximately 1.8 million of our shares of outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2006 are owned by certain of our executive officers and directors and their affiliates and other persons holding restricted shares, and may be resold publicly at any time subject to the volume and other restrictions under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. Approximately 87% of our outstanding shares of common stock as of December 31, 2006 are freely tradable without restriction.

Sales of substantial amounts of shares of our common stock, or even the potential for such sales, could lower the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of equity securities.

Properties

Owned

We do not currently own any real estate.

Leased

We lease approximately 54,000 square feet of industrial space at 7100 Technology Drive in West Melbourne, Florida. The original lease, which expired on June 30, 2005, was renewed for an additional five years with an expiration date of June 30, 2010. Rental, maintenance and tax expenses for this facility were approximately $477,000, $416,000 and $395,000 in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We also lease 8,100 square feet of office space in Lawrence, Kansas, to accommodate a segment of our engineering team. We relocated to this facility in April 2005 from a facility of approximately 3,800 square feet that we had leased for two years. This current lease has a term of five years and expires on December 31, 2009. Rental, maintenance and tax expenses for this new facility were approximately $81,000 for 2006 and 2005, respectively. Rental, maintenance and tax expenses for the former facility were approximately $10,000 and $32,000 for 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Item 7.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Executive Summary

During 2006, our financial condition continued to strengthen and our results from operations improved compared to the previous year. This is attributed to several factors, including new product introductions, the successful penetration of new customers, and overall industry growth fueled largely by increasing adoption of the APCO Project 25 standard and customer migration to compliant digital products.

New products and product enhancements that were introduced in 2006 include the Go-Box portable repeater, a high-power mobile radio and a new digital APCO Project 25-compliant portable radio, the DPH-CMD, for field command and coordination functions. Product enhancements include an IS certified design for our APCO Project 25 digital portable radios, which enables their deployment in hazardous environments where flammable gas, liquid or combustible dust may be present, including oil refineries, mines, chemical plants and flour mills. To be deemed intrinsically safe, products must pass a rigorous series of tests, which certify they will not emit electrical sparks during normal operation. Also, in January 2007, our digital encryption module was validated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) as FIPS 140-2 compliant. We believe NISTs validation of the encryption module will enhance our initiatives to address a broader and growing array of market opportunities for P25 digital radios, particularly in homeland security and the military.

Sales for 2006 increased by approximately $3.9 million (13.8%) to $32.4 million from $28.5 million for 2005. Our growth in sales was driven primarily by digital APCO Project 25-compliant products sold to the government and public safety sector of the market, reflecting the industry-wide increase in demand for such products, combined with our introduction of new products and penetration of new customers. Sales of our APCO project 25 digital products increased approximately 44.2% from 2005. Government and public safety two-way radio users, we believe, will continue migrating to products with APCO Project 25 digital technology. We plan to introduce additional new digital products in 2007 and 2008.

Gross margins as a percent of sales in 2006 improved to 53.9% from 51.5% in 2005. Our margins have continued to improve as higher margin digital products have comprised a greater portion of total sales for 2006 compared to 2005.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased as we continued to invest in new product development and sales and marketing initiatives. The additional spending in these areas is intended to drive sales growth by expediting the introduction of new products, including additional APCO Project 25 digital products, while expanding and intensifying our sales activities.

Pretax income in 2006 increased by approximately $0.4 million (7.2%) to approximately $5.9 million from approximately $5.5 million in 2005. Pretax income for 2006 includes the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation expense totaling $0.8 million (2.6% of total sales). No stock-based compensation expense was recognized in 2005. For 2006, pretax income excluding this expense increased 22.2% ($1.2 million). For additional information pertaining to stock-based compensation expense, see note 11 to the consolidated financial statements found elsewhere in this report.

Income tax expense for 2006 totaled $2.5 million compared to an income tax benefit of $4.8 million for 2005; a comparative expense increase of $7.3 million. The tax expense for 2006 is almost entirely non-cash; primarily the result of utilizing our federal and state net operating loss carryforwards.

Due to the impact of the aforementioned non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation and income taxes, 2006 net income was approximately $3.4 million, or $0.26 per basic and $0.24 per fully diluted share, compared to 2005 net income of approximately $10.3 million, or $0.79 per basic and $0.75 per fully diluted share.

The strength and liquidity of our balance sheet as of December 31, 2006 improved significantly as cash and cash equivalents increased 151% ($8.0 million) to approximately $13.3 million from $5.3 million as of December 31, 2005. Meanwhile, our current liabilities as of December 31, 2006 decreased 8.9% ($0.3 million) to approximately $3.0 million from approximately $3.3 million as of December 31, 2005. Additionally, we continue to be free of long-term debt.

Fiscal Year 2006 Compared With Fiscal Year 2005

Sales

Net Sales for 2006 increased by approximately $3.9 million (13.8%) to $32.4 million from $28.5 million for 2005. By comparison, recent published reports estimate that in 2006 the annual growth of land mobile radio market sales was between 7% and 10%.

Our growth in sales was driven primarily by digital APCO Project 25-compliant products sold to the government and public safety segment of the market, reflecting the industry-wide increase in demand for such products, combined with our introduction of new products and penetration of new customers. Sales of our APCO project 25 digital products in 2006 increased approximately 44.2% from 2005.

During the past year, we broadened our digital product offerings, introducing additional P25 products such as our DPH-CMD portable radio, our Go-Box portable repeater and our digital mobile radio, as well as new digital capabilities such as encryption. These developments enable us to expand our addressable market and add new customers, including agencies of homeland security and the military. Government and public safety two-way radio users, we believe, will continue migrating to products with APCO Project 25 digital technology, which should serve as a catalyst for future growth in digital sales and total sales. We also have plans to further expand our addressable market through the introduction of additional P25 products and capabilities in 2007 and 2008.

Sales of conventional analog products in 2006 decreased approximately 6.5% from the previous year. Although gains were realized in certain commercial and industrial market segments, demand for analog products in the government and public safety market declined during the year as more users migrated to newer product designs incorporating P25 digital technology.

Cost of Products and Gross Margins

Cost of Products as a percentage of sales for 2006 decreased to 46.1% from 48.5% for 2005. For 2006, the cost of products included non-cash stock-based compensation expense totaling approximately $203,000 (0.6% of sales). We did not recognize non-cash stock-based compensation expense in 2005.

Contract manufacturing relationships have helped improve our production efficiencies and reduce material and labor costs. They have also enabled us to effectively control internal manufacturing support expenses. Furthermore, we have been able to leverage increased sales volumes to improve our utilization of manufacturing related assets. We believe further efficiencies and cost reductions can be realized from volume increases in the future.

The mix of products in our total sales also impacts the cost of products and gross margins. For 2006, sales of higher-specification products that incorporate recent, more cost-effective product designs, particularly P25 digital products,



17





---

comprised a greater portion of our sales; yielding higher average selling prices and improved gross margins compared to the prior year.

We continuously evaluate manufacturing alternatives to improve quality and reduce our product costs. We anticipate that the current contract manufacturing relationships or comparable alternatives will be available to us in the future.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses consist of marketing, sales, commissions, engineering, development, management information systems, accounting, headquarters, and non-cash stock-based compensation expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2006, SG&A expenses totaled approximately $11.9 million (36.6% of sales) compared to approximately $9.2 million (32.1% of sales) for 2005. For 2006, SG&A expenses included non-cash stock-based compensation expense totaling approximately $624,000 (1.9% of sales). We did not recognize non-cash stock-based compensation expense for the prior year.

The overall increase in SG&A expenses is attributed primarily to increases in product development and selling and marketing initiatives combined with non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Engineering and product development expenses in 2006 increased by approximately $662,000 (27.4%) compared to last year. These increases were primarily due to additional staff and development expenses, as well as non-cash stock-based compensation expense. The additional investment in engineering and product development is intended to enhance our ability to complete and introduce new products, including additional P25 digital products. Bringing such products to market and achieving a significant share of the market will continue to require investment. Internal development efforts are focused on our digital product program. This program is planned to yield additional products in 2007 and 2008. We believe such products will be a primary source of sales growth in the future.

Marketing and selling expenses increased by approximately $1.5 million (39.7%) for 2006 compared to last year. This increase was the result of several factors. Commission expense increased directly as a result of increased sales revenues. Also, a greater portion of sales were derived from commissionable sources. During 2006, we added new sales staff, and incurred expenses designed to raise and enhance our profile, facilitating our ability to penetrate new customers and drive sales growth, particularly from government and public safety opportunities for P25 digital products. Additionally, we recognized non-cash stock-based compensation expense during the year.

General and administrative expenses for 2006 increased by approximately $479,000 (20.8%) compared to last year. This increase was almost entirely driven by non-cash stock-based compensation expense, which was not recognized in the prior year.

Operating Income

Operating income for 2006 increased approximately 7.2% ($398,000) compared to last year. Non-cash stock-based compensation totaling $827,000 impacted 2006 operating income significantly. This expense was not recognized in the prior year. Excluding that impact, operating income increased approximately 22.2% ($1.2 million). The improvement is attributable to sales growth and mix as well as new products and operating improvements that reduced product costs.

Interest Income, net

For 2006, we earned approximately $285,000 in net interest income compared to $30,000 for the prior year. We earn interest income on our cash balances and incur interest expense on borrowings from our revolving line of credit. The increase in net interest income is derived from our improved cash position, resulting from revenue growth and improved operations. We had no outstanding principal balance under the revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2006. The interest rate on our revolving line of credit is variable and will fluctuate with the prime lending rate.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for 2006 totaled approximately $2.5 million compared to an income tax benefit of approximately $4.8 million for the prior year, a comparative expense increase of $7.3 million. The expense for 2006



18





---

is largely non-cash as we utilized deferred tax assets related primarily to federal and state net operating loss carryforwards. In 2005, significant tax benefits resulted from the recognition of deferred tax assets.

As of December 31, 2006, our deferred tax asset totaled approximately $8.9 million. This asset is primarily composed of net operating loss carry forwards (NOLs). These NOLs total $16.0 million for federal and state purposes, with expirations starting in 2018 and ending in 2022.

In order to fully realize the net deferred tax asset, we will need to generate sufficient taxable income in future years prior to the expiration of our NOLs. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (Statement 109) requires us to analyze all positive and negative evidence to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, we are more likely than not to realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset. The recognition of the net deferred tax asset and related tax benefit is based upon our conclusions regarding, among other considerations, our estimates of future earnings based on information currently available, our current and anticipated customers, contracts and product introductions, as well as recent operating results during 2006, 2005 and 2004, and certain tax planning strategies.

We have evaluated the available evidence and the likelihood of realizing the benefit of our net deferred tax asset. From our evaluation we have concluded that based on the weight of available evidence we are more likely than not to realize the benefit of our deferred tax assets recorded at December 31, 2006. Accordingly, no valuation allowance was recognized as of December 31, 2006.

We cannot presently estimate what, if any, changes to the valuation of our deferred tax asset may be deemed appropriate in the future. If we incur future losses, it may be necessary to reduce some or the entire deferred tax asset recognized as of December 31, 2006.

Fiscal Year 2005 Compared With Fiscal Year 2004

Sales

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased approximately $7.9 million (38.1%) to approximately $28.5 million from $20.7 million for 2004.

In 2005, we realized sales growth in both the government and public safety, and the business and industrial markets of our business. This growth was from new customers and contracts, as well as increasing demand from recurring customers and existing contracts, and was fueled primarily by the introduction of new products, both analog and digital. We also benefited from the increasing momentum of our APCO Project 25 products. We brought twelve new radio products to market in 2005. Sales from new products for both of our markets (government and public safety, and business and industrial) increased approximately $6.2 million (60.1%) for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to the same period last year. This includes sales of our BK Radio-brand analog and digital products sold principally to agencies of federal, state and local governments, as well as sales of RELM and RELM/BK-brand products sold primarily to business and industrial concerns. These products were introduced at various times during 2004 and 2005. Sales of other conventional analog products increased approximately $1.6 million (15.9%) for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to the same period last year, reflecting strengthening overall demand for LMR products and our improved competitive position.

To capitalize on the advantages of our new products and the accelerating migration to APCO Project 25 digital products, we expanded our sales and marketing initiatives in 2005. We expect to continue this focus in 2006.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margins

Cost of sales as a percentage of sales for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased to 48.5% from 56.0% for 2004.

Gross margins showed improvement as we were able to leverage increasing volumes to successfully reduce manufacturing and support costs as a percentage of sales while maintaining our high quality standard. Contract manufacturing relationships continue to favorably impact our production efficiencies, and material and labor costs. They have also enabled us to effectively control internal manufacturing support expenses. Furthermore, the volume from increased sales during the year enabled us to more fully utilize and absorb our base of manufacturing support

expenses. Additional sales growth and volume increases, we believe, may yield further improvements in cost of sales as a percentage of sales.

The mix of products in our total sales has also contributed to improved margins. Sales of higher-specification products to government and public-safety customers, including APCO Project 25 digital products, and sales of new RELM analog products increased for 2005 compared to 2004. Also, overall, our product lines are comprised of a greater portion of new products incorporating recent, more cost-effective designs.

We continuously evaluate manufacturing alternatives to improve quality and reduce our product costs. We anticipate that the current contract manufacturing relationships or comparable alternatives will be available to us in the future.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses consist of marketing, sales, commissions, engineering, development, management information systems, accounting and headquarters expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2005, SG&A expenses totaled approximately $9.2 million (32.1% of sales) compared to approximately $7.2 million (34.7% of sales) for 2004.

The overall increase in SG&A expenses is attributed primarily to increases in product development and selling and marketing initiatives, as well as increases in public company related expenses.

Product development and engineering expenses increased by approximately $0.6 million (30.6%) for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to 2004. This increase was primarily the result of additional engineering staff and related payroll expenses, which are intended to expedite the development and introduction of new products, including additional APCO Project 25 digital products. Our internal development efforts are focused on our digital product program. Bringing such products to market and achieving a significant share of the market will continue to require substantial investment. Our program is planned to yield additional products in 2006 and 2007. We anticipate that these products will be a primary source of sales growth in the future.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by approximately $0.9 million (28.8%) for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to 2004. We incurred additional marketing, promotion and incentive expenses for focused initiatives designed to drive sales growth from both government and public safety opportunities for APCO Project 25 digital products, as well as from opportunities in the business and industrial market. Sales commissions as a percentage of sales decreased during the year as a greater portion of our sales were made through direct channels and at reduced commission rates.

General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.5 million (24.3%) for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to 2004. The increase resulted from certain headquarters-related expenses and professional fees, including those related to achieving a listing on the American Stock Exchange, evaluating strategic alternatives and commencing an investor relations program. We also incurred additional expenses pertaining to compliance with public company internal control and reporting requirements.

Operating Income

Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased approximately $3.6 million (187.1%) to approximately $5.5 million compared to approximately $1.9 million for 2004. The improvement is attributed to sales growth and product mix as well as product and manufacturing improvements which reduced product costs as a percentage of sales.

Interest Expense

For the year ended December 31, 2005, interest expense decreased by approximately $250,000 (85.9%) to $41,000 from $291,000 for 2004. We incurred interest expense on our revolving line of credit. The interest rate on our revolving line of credit is variable and will fluctuate with the prime lending rate. Primarily as a result of cash generated from improved operations, the outstanding principal balance on the revolving line of credit was lower during 2005 compared to the prior year, and there was no outstanding balance as of December 31, 2005.

Our convertible notes matured on December 31, 2004. Notes totaling $2.25 million were repaid and retired on that date. As of December 31, 2004, notes totaling $700,000 were outstanding. The rights for those notes to convert and



20





---

to earn interest expired on December 31, 2004. Notes totaling $550,000 were tendered, repaid and retired in January 2005. The remaining note totaling $150,000 was tendered, repaid and retired in August 2005.

Income Taxes

The income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $4.8 million compared to $6.2 million for 2004.

As of December 31, 2005, we recognized a deferred tax asset of approximately $11.2 million. This asset is primarily composed of net operating loss carry forwards (NOLs). These NOLs total $22.9 million for federal purposes and $21.7 million for state purposes, with expirations starting in 2006 and ending in 2024.

In order to fully realize the net deferred tax asset, we will need to generate sufficient taxable income in future years prior to the expiration of our NOLs. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (Statement 109) requires us to analyze all positive and negative evidence to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, we are more likely than not to realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset. The recognition of the net deferred tax asset and related tax benefit is based upon our conclusions regarding, among other considerations, our estimates of future earnings based on information currently available, our current and anticipated customers, contracts and product introductions, as well as recent operating results during 2005 and 2004, and certain tax planning strategies.

We have evaluated the available evidence and the likelihood of realizing the benefit of our net deferred tax asset. From our evaluation we have concluded that based on the weight of available evidence we are more likely than not to realize the benefit of our deferred tax assets recorded at December 31, 2005. Therefore, in the fourth quarter 2005, we eliminated the valuation allowance and recognized the entire deferred tax asset of approximately $11.2 million and a deferred tax benefit on our consolidated statement of operations of approximately $4.8 million.

We cannot presently estimate what, if any, changes to the valuation of our deferred tax asset may be deemed appropriate in the future. If we incur future losses, it may be necessary to reduce some or the entire deferred tax asset recognized as of December 31, 2005.

Inflation and Changing Prices

Inflation and changing prices for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 contributed to increases in certain costs. These effects were more than offset by increasing sales of higher priced products and reduced manufacturing costs associated with our initiatives to utilize contract manufacturers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the year ended December 31, 2006, net cash provided by operating activities totaled approximately $8.0 million, compared to approximately $3.3 million for the same period last year. The cash provided by operations is primarily attributable to net income for the year of approximately $3.4 million compared to approximately $10.3 million for 2005. Changes in components of working capital, particularly accounts receivable and deferred taxes also generated cash.

Accounts receivable for the year ended December 31, 2006 decreased approximately $1.9 million compared to an increase of approximately $1.8 million for the same period last year. During 2006, collections from large government accounts improved compared to the prior year, during which sales growth late in the year coupled with extended payment terms to certain customers increased accounts receivable. Inventory net of reserve increased in 2006 by approximately $0.4 million compared to a $2.5 million increase in 2005. The increase in 2005 was the result of expanded stocking levels to support anticipated sales growth and to improve responsiveness to customers and overall customer satisfaction. In 2006, inventories increased slightly late in the year as sales volumes slowed. Deferred tax assets decreased approximately $2.3 million reflecting the impact of non-cash deferred tax expense for the year compared to an increase of approximately $4.9 million for the prior year when we recognized our remaining deferred tax assets. Accounts payable decreased approximately $0.3 million in 2006 compared to an increase of $1.0 million in 2005 as obligations to suppliers were satisfied. Depreciation and amortization totaled approximately $0.5 million for 2006 and 2005 as we invested in additional engineering related equipment.

Cash used in investing activities was primarily to fund the acquisition of equipment pertaining to our development of new digital products as well as computer and test equipment. Capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2006 were approximately $224,000 compared to approximately $515,000 for last year. We anticipate that future capital expenditures will be funded through existing cash balances, operating cash flow and our revolving line of credit.

Net cash totaling approximately $229,000 was provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2006 from the issuance of common stock.  During the same period last year, approximately $628,000 was used in financing activities primarily to repay outstanding subordinated convertible notes.

We have a revolving credit facility for up to $3.5 million. The facility is secured by substantially all of our assets, principally trade receivables and inventory. Under the formula for calculating the available credit on our facility, approximately $3.5 million was available as of December 31, 2006. The credit agreement contains customary financial and restrictive covenants with which we must comply. As of December 31, 2006, we were in compliance with all such covenants. There were no amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2006.

Our cash balance at December 31, 2006 was approximately $13.3 million. We believe these funds combined with cash generated from operations and borrowing availability under our credit facility are sufficient to meet our current working capital requirements for the next twelve months. If sales volumes increase substantially, additional sources of working capital may be required to fulfill the demand.

The following table sets forth the Companys future contractual obligations for the next five years and in the aggregate as of December 31, 2006:

We lease approximately 54,000 square feet of industrial space at 7100 Technology Drive in West Melbourne, Florida. The original lease, which expired on June 30, 2005, was renewed for an additional five years and will expire on June 30, 2010. Rental, maintenance and tax expenses for this facility were approximately $477,000, $416,000 and $395,000 in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We also lease 8,100 square feet of office space in Lawrence, Kansas, to accommodate a segment of our engineering team. We relocated to this facility in April 2005 from a facility of approximately 3,800 square feet that we had leased for two years. The current lease expires on December 31, 2009. Rental, maintenance and tax expenses for this new facility were approximately $81,000 for 2006 and 2005, respectively. Rental, maintenance and tax expenses for the former facility were approximately $10,000 and $32,000 for 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes  An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We will adopt FIN 48 in the first quarter of 2007. We do not believe the effect of adopting FIN 48 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 7A.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We may be subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the ordinary course of business for borrowings under our revolving credit facility, which bear interest at a variable rate. The lender presently charges interest at prime rate plus 0.5%. As of December 31, 2006, we had no debt outstanding under this facility.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In response to the SECs financial reporting release, FR-60, Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies, we have selected for disclosure our revenue recognition process and our more subjective accounting estimation processes. These processes affect our reported revenues and current assets and are therefore critical in assessing the financial and operating status of RELM. The processes for determining the allowance for collection of trade receivables and the reserves for excess or obsolete inventory involve certain assumptions that if incorrect could create an adverse impact on RELM's operations and financial position.

Revenue

Sales revenue is recognized when the earnings process is complete and collection is reasonably assured. The earnings process is generally complete when the product is shipped or received by the customer, depending upon whether the title to the goods, as well as the risks and benefits of ownership are transferred to the customer at point of shipment or point of delivery. However, sales to the United States government are recognized when the products are delivered. We periodically review our revenue recognition procedures to assure that such procedures are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104.

Allowance for Collection Losses

The allowance for collection losses was approximately $67,000 on gross trade receivables of approximately $3.6 million as of December 31, 2006. This allowance is used to state trade receivables at a net realizable value or the amount that we estimate will be collected on our gross receivables as of December 31, 2006. Because the amount that we will actually collect on the receivables outstanding as of December 31, 2006 cannot be known with certainty as of this reports date, we rely on prior experience. Our historical collection losses have typically been infrequent with write-offs of trade receivables. For the last four years our average write-offs has been less than $11,000 annually. We maintain a general allowance up to approximately 5% of the gross trade receivables balance in order to allow for future collection losses that arise from customer accounts that do not indicate the inability to pay but turn out to have such an inability. Currently, our allowance on trade receivables is approximately 1.8% of gross receivables. As revenues and total receivables increase, the allowance balance may also increase. We also maintain a specific allowance for customer accounts that we know may not be collectible due to various reasons such as bankruptcy and other customer liquidity issues. We analyze our trade receivable portfolio based on the age of each customers invoice. In this way, we can identify those accounts that are more likely than not to have collection problems. We may reserve a portion or all of the customers balance. We had no specific allowance as of December 31, 2006.

Inventory Reserve

The reserve for slow-moving, excess, or obsolete inventory was approximately $3.0 million at December 31, 2006 as compared to approximately $2.6 million at December 31, 2005. The reserve for slow-moving, excess, or obsolete inventory is used to state our inventories at the lower of cost or market. Because the amount of inventory that we will actually recoup through sales cannot be known with certainty at any particular time, we rely on past sales experience, future sales forecasts, and our strategic business plans. Generally, in analyzing our inventory levels, we classify inventory as having been used or unused during the past year. For raw material inventory with no usage in the past year, we reserve 85% of its cost, which takes into account a 15% scrap value, while for finished goods inventory with no usage in the past year we reserve 80% of its cost. For inventory with usage in the past year, in order to get the most pertinent usage profile, we review the annual sales and usage over the most recent three years, project that amount over a five-year horizon, and reserve 25% of the excess amount (which excess amount equals inventory on hand less the five year projected usage amount). We believe that 25% represents the value of excess inventory we would not be able to recover due to new product introductions and other technological advancements over the next five years. We review our actual recovery experience on the sale of excess or obsolete inventory in order to assure that the reserve and recovery percentages utilized in the analysis are reasonable.

Supplemental to the aforementioned analysis, specific inventory items are reviewed individually by management. Based on the review, considering business levels, future prospects, new products and technology changes, the valuation of specific inventory items may be adjusted to reflect a more accurate valuation, in the business judgment of management. Management also performs a determination of net realizable value for all finished goods with a selling price below cost. For all such items, the inventory is valued at not more than the selling price.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method specified by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the period in which the deferred tax asset or liability is expected to be realized. The effect of changes in net deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized on our consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income in the period in which the change is recognized. Valuation allowances are provided to the extent that impairment of tax assets are more likely than not. In determining whether a tax asset is realizable, we consider among other things, estimates of future earnings based on information currently available, current and anticipated customers, contracts and new product introductions, as well as recent operating results during 2006, 2005 and 2004, and certain tax planning strategies. If we fail to achieve the future results anticipated in the calculation and valuation of net deferred tax assets, we may be required to adjust our valuation allowance related to our deferred tax assets in the future.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Report of Independent Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders

RELM Wireless Corporation

Melbourne, Florida

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of RELM Wireless Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2006 the Company changed its method of accounting for share-based compensation.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of RELM Wireless Corporation at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

The Companys primary business is the designing, manufacturing, and marketing of wireless communications equipment consisting primarily of two-way land mobile radios and related products which are sold in two primary markets: (1) the government and public safety market and (2) business and industrial market. The Company has only one reportable business segment.

Principles of Consolidation

The accounts of the Company and its subsidiary have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the average cost method) or market. Freight costs are classified as a component of cost of products in the consolidated statements of income.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations for the period.

Depreciation is generally computed on the straight-line method using lives of 3 to 10 years on machinery and equipment and 5 to 10 years on buildings and building improvements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Management regularly reviews long-lived assets and intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets which considers the discounted future net cash flows.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified amounts that the Company believes to be uncollectible. The Company also records additional allowance based on certain percentages of the Companys aged receivables, which are determined based on historical experience and the Companys assessment of the general financial conditions affecting the Companys customer base. If the Companys actual collections experience changes, revisions to the Companys allowance may be required. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. In addition, with respect to notes receivable, the Company stops accruing interest when collection of a note becomes doubtful. Based on the information available, management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2006 is adequate.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Revenue Recognition

Sales revenue is recognized when the earnings process is complete and collection is reasonably assured. The earnings process is generally complete when the product is shipped or received by the customer, depending upon whether the title to the goods, as well as the risks and benefits of ownership are transferred to the customer at point of shipment or point of delivery. However, sales to the U.S. Government are recognized when the products are delivered. The Company periodically reviews its revenue recognition procedures to assure that such procedures are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method specified by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the period in which the deferred tax asset or liability is expected to be realized. The effect of changes in net deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized on the Companys consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income in the period in which the change is recognized. Valuation allowances are provided to the extent that impairment of tax assets are more likely than not. In determining whether a tax asset is realizable, the Company considers among other things, estimates of future earnings based on information currently available, current and anticipated customers, contracts and new product introductions, as well as recent operating results during 2006, 2005 and 2004, and certain tax planning strategies. If the Company fails to achieve the future results anticipated in the calculation and valuation of net deferred tax assets, the Company may be required to adjust the valuation of its deferred tax assets in the future.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is in the business of designing, manufacturing, and marketing of wireless communications equipment consisting primarily of two-way land mobile radios and related products. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers financial condition and generally does not require collateral. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, accounts receivable from governmental customers were approximately $1,103 and $3,964, respectively. Receivables generally are due within 30 days. Credit losses relating to customers consistently have been within managements expectations and are comparable to losses for the portfolio as a whole.

The Company primarily maintains cash balances at one financial institution. Accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $100. From time to time, the Company had cash in financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2006, the Company had cash in excess of FDIC limits of approximately $13,000.

Manufacturing and Raw Materials

The Company relies upon a limited number of manufacturers to produce its products and on a limited number of component suppliers. The Company also places a substantial emphasis on manufacturing in other countries. Approximately 60% of the Companys material, subassembly and product procurements in 2006 were sourced internationally. Purchase orders are placed with these concerns from time to time and there are no guaranteed supply arrangements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include accounts receivable allowances, inventory obsolescence reserves, and warranty reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Companys management believes that carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are classified as a part of cost of products in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004.

Advertising Costs

The cost for advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for 2006, 2005, and 2004 was $731, $418, and $363, respectively.

Engineering, Research and Development Costs

Included in selling, general and administrative expenses for 2006, 2005, and 2004 are research and development costs of $3,079, $2,418, and $1,853, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (Statement No. 123R). This Statement requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. Employee share purchase plans will not result in recognition of compensation cost if certain conditions are met; those conditions are much the same as the related conditions in Statement No 123R. Statement No. 123R was originally required to be adopted by the Company beginning no later than the third quarter of 2005. However, in April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced the adoption of a new rule that amends the compliance dates for Statement No. 123R. Accordingly, the Company adopted Statement No. 123R on January 1, 2006.  The Company has adopted the modified prospective transition method. Under this transition method, compensation expense was recognized beginning January 1, 2006 and included (a) compensation expense for all share-based employee compensation arrangements granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement No. 123, and (b) compensation expense for all share-based employee compensation arrangements granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement No. 123R. Results for prior periods have not been restated.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

As a result of adopting Statement No. 123R on January 1, 2006, income before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2006 was approximately $827,000 lower, than if the Company had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB No. 25. Both basic and diluted earnings per common share for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $0.06 lower than if the Company had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB No. 25.

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock options issued using the intrinsic value method and, accordingly, no compensation cost was recognized for stock options granted as such options granted had an exercise price greater than or equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. If the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value of the options at the grant date, as contemplated by Statement No. 123R, the Companys net income and basic and diluted net income per common share would have reflected the pro forma amounts shown below:

Total comprehensive income is equal to net income reported in the consolidated financial statements.

Product Warranty

The Company offers two-year warranties to its customers depending on the specific product and terms of the customer purchase agreement. The Companys typical warranties require it to repair and replace defective products

during the warranty period at no cost to the customer. At the time the product revenue is recognized, the Company records a liability for estimated costs under its warranties. The costs are estimated based on historical experience. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded liability for product warranties and adjusts the amount as necessary.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued interpretation no. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes- an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109(FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes(SFAS 109). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company will adopt FIN 48 in the first quarter of 2007. The Company does not believe adoption will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Debt Issuance Costs

On March 16, 2000, the Company completed the private placement of $3,250 of convertible subordinated notes. The debt issuance costs included grants of 50,000 shares of the Companys stock valued at $163 and warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of the Companys common stock valued at $409. The debt issuance costs, which originally totaled $817, were amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the notes (5 years). At December 31, 2004, the issuance costs were fully amortized.

The warrants, which expired in May 2005, had an original exercise price of $3.25 per share. They contained provisions that protected the warrant holders against dilution should the Company issue shares of common stock at a price less than the warrants exercise price then in effect. These provisions provide for an adjustment in the warrants exercise price and the number of shares into which the warrants may be exercised. On two occasions, in March 2002 and August 2003, the Company issued shares of stock at a price below the warrants exercise price then in effect. Accordingly, the exercise price of the warrants was adjusted to $1.88, which was the effective exercise price on December 31, 2004.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 was $531, $548 and $507, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company wrote off $5,240 of machinery and equipment, which was fully depreciated.

Notes Receivable

During 2002, the purchaser of the Companys former specialty manufacturing subsidiary, ceased making payments in accordance with an agreement. The original amount of the agreement was approximately $355. As of December 31, 2002, the amount due under the note was approximately $175 plus accrued interest. This note resulted from a 1997 agreement for the sale of the assets of the Companys former specialty-manufacturing subsidiary. After its inception, the terms of the obligation were restructured several times to accommodate the purchaser. The last payment was received in March 2002. Thereafter, attempts to contact the purchaser and collect the past-due installment payments were unsuccessful. In February 2003, the Company started legal proceedings to recover the remaining amount due under the note plus accrued interest. In August 2005, the matter was settled for $120 in two equal cash payments during 2005 and the difference was reflected in Other income (expense).

Income Taxes (Continued)

As of December 31, 2006, the Company had a net deferred tax asset of approximately $8,850. This asset is primarily composed of net operating loss carry forwards (NOLs). The NOLs total $16,100 for federal and for state purposes, with expirations starting in 2018. During 2006 and 2005, the Company utilized $6,993 and $6,242, respectively, of its NOLs. The deferred tax asset amounts are based upon managements conclusions regarding, among other considerations, the Companys history of operating results, its current and anticipated customer base and contracts, its new product introductions, certain tax planning strategies and managements estimates of future earnings based on information currently available. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes requires that all positive and negative evidence be analyzed to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, the Company is more likely than not to realize the benefit of the deferred tax asset.

The Company has evaluated the available evidence and the likelihood of realizing the benefit of its deferred tax asset. Based on this evaluation, the weight of available evidence supports the conclusion that the Company, more likely than not, will realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets. Should the factors underlying managements analysis change, future valuation adjustments to the Companys deferred tax asset may be necessary. If future losses are incurred, it may be necessary reduce some or the entire deferred tax asset recognized as of December 31, 2006. It cannot presently be estimated what, if any, changes to the valuation of the Companys deferred tax asset may be deemed appropriate in the future. The federal and state net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards could be subject to limitation if, within any three year period prior to the expiration of the applicable carryforward period, there is a greater than 50% change in ownership of the Company.

For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 the Company incurred $139, $125 and 45, respectively in alternative minimum tax expense in connection with the federal limitation on alternative tax net operating loss carry-forwards.

Non-Cash Share-Based Employee Compensation

The Company has employee and non-employee director stock option programs. Related to these programs, and in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, the Company recorded $827 of non-cash share-based employee compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company considers its non-cash share-based compensation expense as a component of cost of products ($203) and selling, general and administrative expenses ($624). No amount of non-cash sharebased employee compensation expense was capitalized as part of capital expenditures or inventory for the period presented.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model to calculate the fair value of a stock option grant. The non-cash stock-based employee compensation expense recorded in the year ended December 31, 2006 was calculated using the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Companys common stock over the period of time commensurate with the expected life of the stock options. The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no present intention to pay cash dividends. The Company estimated its future stock option exercises. The expected term of option grants is based upon the observed and expected time to the date of post vesting exercise and forfeitures of options by the Companys employees. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the average U.S. Treasury rate for the period, which approximates the rate at the time of the stock option grant.

Non-Cash Share-Based Employee Compensation (Continued)

For the periods prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for its employee and director stock option plans in accordance with the provision of APB Opinion No. 25. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company measured employee compensation cost of its stock option plans using the intrinsic value method of accounting.

Prior to the Companys adoption of SFAS No. 123R, SFAS No. 123 required that the Company provide pro forma information regarding net earnings and net earnings per common share as if compensation cost for the Companys stock-based awards had been determined in accordance with the fair value method now prescribed. The Company had previously adopted the disclosure portion of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation  Transition and Disclosure, requiring quarterly SFAS No. 123 pro forma disclosure. The pro forma change for compensation cost related to stock-based awards granted was recognized over the vesting period. For stock options, the vesting period represents the period of time between the date of grant and the date each option becomes exercisable.

Equity

In June 2004, the Company completed the redemption of all its outstanding public warrants to purchase common stock. Prior to completion of the redemption, approximately 99.4% of the public warrants were exercised, generating net proceeds to the Company of approximately $3,400 and a 3,424,470 share increase in outstanding shares of the Companys common stock. Any public warrant or certificate representing a public warrant is invalid and no longer in force or effect. The redemption concluded the Companys 2002 public rights offering.

From March 2002 through June 2004, the offering generated approximately $5,500 in total net proceeds, and resulted in the issuance of 6,864,777 shares of RELM common stock. The offering originated in March 2002, and the securities offered were units. A unit was comprised of one share of RELM common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of RELM common stock. Units were offered initially to RELMs equity holders in the form of a rights offering. The right allowed investors in the offering to purchase units at a 10 percent discount to the market price of a share of common stock. The warrant component gave investors the opportunity to buy the Companys shares at a later date at a fixed price, and provided the opportunity for the Company to realize additional capital upon their exercise. On April 30, 2004, the Company announced the redemption of the public warrants. The public warrants, with an exercise price of $1.05, were exercisable for one share of common stock until 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on May 30, 2004. After that date, the warrants were no longer exercisable, and holders were entitled to receive only the redemption price of $0.10 per warrant.

In 2005 and 2006, a total of 97,500 and 204,938, respectively, shares of the Companys common stock were issued as a result of the exercise of employee stock options.

During 2005, stock purchase warrants were exercised for 165,206 shares in a cashless exercise.

The Company had no shares of its $1.00 par value preferred stock issued as of December 31, 2006 and 2005.

The increase in net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 was primarily due to an income tax benefit of approximately $7,000 resulting from reductions in the valuation allowance against the Companys deferred tax asset. The deferred tax asset is comprised largely of net operating loss carry forwards (NOLs). As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company has deferred tax assets of approximately $8,900 and $11,000, respectively.
