EXPLANATORY NOTE
We have restated the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005 in this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (“Form 10-Q/A”) to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2006 (the “Form 10-Q”) initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 14, 2006 (the “Original Filing”). This, which reflects third quarter 2006 restated financial statements and related footnote disclosures to correct an error which overstated sales and net income reported on the income statement for the three months ended September 30, 2006 by $0.8 million and $0.3 million respectively, overstated sales and net income reported on the income statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 by $0.7 million and $0.2 million respectively, overstated sales and net income reported on the income statement for the three months ended October 1, 2005 by $0.8 million and $0.3 million respectively and overstated sales and net income reported on the income statement for the nine months ended October 1, 2005 by $0.8 million and $0.3 million respectively.
As required by Rule 12b-15 promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, Astronic’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are providing Rule 13a-14(a) certifications dated March 14, 2007 in connection with this Form 10-K/A (but otherwise identical to their prior certifications) and are also furnishing, but not filing, written statements pursuant to section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 dated March 14, 2007 (but otherwise identical to their prior statements); and Astronics is re-filing the Consent of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm dated March 14, 2007 (identical to the previously filed consent).
The amendment on Form 10-K/A (“Form 10-K/A”) to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2005, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2006 (the “Original Filing”), reflects 2005 restated financial statements and related footnote disclosures to correct an error which overstated sales reported on the income statement at December 31, 2005 by $1.0 million and net income by $0.4 million.
On March 5, 2007, the Company concluded that its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 and each of the quarters ended April, 1, 2006, July 1, 2006 and September 30, 2006 should be restated to correct an error whereby the Company incorrectly reported revenue from a bill and hold arrangement with one customer.
This correction resulted in the following:

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)
1) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Operating results for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.
The balance sheet at December 31, 2005 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Astronics Corporation’s (the “Company”) 2005 annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Reclassifications — Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
2) Stock Based Compensation
The Company has stock option plans that authorize the issuance of options for shares of Common Stock to directors, officers and key employees. Stock option grants are designed to reward long-term contributions to the Company and provide incentives for recipients to remain with the Company. The exercise price, determined by a committee of the Board of Directors, may not be less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the grant date. Options become exercisable over periods not exceeding ten years. The Company’s practice has been to issue new shares upon the exercise of the options.
During the first quarter of 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” applying the modified prospective method. This Statement requires all equity-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the statement of earnings based on the grant date fair value of the award. Under the modified prospective method, the Company is required to record equity-based compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards outstanding as of the date of adoption. The Company uses a straight-line method of attributing the value of stock-based compensation expense, subject to minimum levels of expense, based on vesting. Stock compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. Vesting requirements vary for directors, officers and key employees. In general, options granted to outside directors vest six months from the date of grant and options granted to officers and key employees straight line vest over a five-year period from the date of grant.
The fair value of stock options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted average fair value of the options was $6.05 for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and was $3.32 for options granted during the nine months ended October 1, 2005. The following table provides the range of assumptions used to value stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005.

Expected term (in years)

Table of Contents

To determine expected volatility, the Company uses historical volatility based on weekly closing prices of its Common Stock and considers currently available information to determine if future volatility is expected to differ over the expected terms of the options granted. The risk-free rate is based on the United States Treasury yield curve at the time of grant for the appropriate term of the options granted. Expected dividends are based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The expected term of stock options is based on vesting schedules, expected exercise patterns and contractual terms.
The table below reflects net earnings and net earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the pro forma information for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2005 as follows:

9) New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation for SFAS No. 109.” FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with for SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” The pronouncement prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributable to financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any; the adoption of FIN 48 will have on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Where applicable, this Statement simplifies and codifies related guidance within generally accepted accounting principles. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any; the adoption of Statement No. 157 will have on our financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R).” The Statement requires employers to fully recognize the obligations associated with single-employer defined benefit pension, retiree healthcare and other postretirement plans in their financial statements. Statement 158 also requires companies to measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions) instead of permitting companies to use a lag of up to three-months permitted by FASB Statement No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”, and FASB Statement No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions”. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any; the adoption of Statement No. 158 will have on our financial statements.
10) Income Taxes
On April 12, 2005, New York State enacted tax legislation resulting in a change to the New York State apportionment methodology. Beginning in 2006, a single sales factor apportionment method will be phased in, with a single sales factor solely used in 2008. It is expected that this enacted legislation will result in a lower apportionment of the Company’s taxable income to New York State, resulting in lower New York state income taxes. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to use or realize New York State tax credits has been reduced. In 2005, the Company has assessed the impact of the new tax legislation and recorded a valuation allowance reducing the Company’s $490 thousand deferred tax asset relating to New York State tax credits to $40 thousand. As a result of this valuation allowance the Company recorded a non-cash charge to income tax expense of $300 thousand or $0.04 per diluted share during the third quarter of 2005. The charge to income tax expense is net of the affect of federal income taxes. The effective tax rate in 2006 returned to a more normal rate of 36.4%
11) Sales To Major Customers
The Company has a significant concentration of business with two customers. Sales to the U.S. Government were approximately 11.2% and 13.0% of revenue during the 3rd quarter and year to date 2006, respectively and were approximately 18.2% and 15.8% of revenue during the 3rd quarter and year to date 2005, respectively.
Sales to one other customer amounted to approximately 25.3% and 21.0% of its sales during the 3rd quarter and year to date 2006, respectively and were approximately 0.1% and 1.9% of its sales during the 3rd quarter and year to date 2005, respectively.
12) Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements
The Company has restated its previously issued financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005, the three-months ended April 1, 2006, the three and six months ended July 1, 2006 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 to correct an error regarding the timing of revenue recognition for a bill-and-hold transaction. This error reduces revenue previously reported on the income statement for the year ended December 31, 2005 by $1.0 million and net income by $0.4 million. This error overstated sales reported on the income statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 by $0.7 million and overstated net income by $0.2 million. This error overstated sales reported on the income statement for the three months ended September 30, 2006 by $0.8 million and overstated net income by $0.3 million. This error overstated sales reported on the income statement for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2005 by $0.8 million and overstated net income by $0.3 million.
This correction resulted in the following:
                                         
    Nine Months Ended   Three months ended    
    September 30,   October 1,   September 30,   October 1,   December 31,

ACQUISITION
On February 3, 2005, the Company acquired the assets of the Airborne Electronic Systems (AES) business unit from a subsidiary of General Dynamics, for $13.0 million. The Company used $6.0 million of cash and borrowed $7.0 million against its line of credit to finance the acquisition. No goodwill was recognized as a result of this acquisition. Operating results for this acquisition are included in the consolidated statement of income from the acquisition date.
SALES
Sales for the third quarter of 2006 increased 41.8% to $27.8 million compared with $19.6 million for the same period last year. Sales to the commercial transport market were $15.0 million, as compared to $7.1 million for the same period of 2005, an increase of $7.9 million or 111.3 %. The sales increase to the commercial transport market was a result of increased volume of cabin electronics products. This volume increase was driven by increased installations of in-seat power and in-flight entertainment systems utilizing our products. Sales to the business jet market were $6.3 million, up $2.5 million, or 66.3%, compared with sales of $3.8 million for the same period in 2005. The increase of sales to the business jet market was due primarily to an increase in volume as production of new business jets by the airframe manufacturers increased over last year. Sales to the military market were $6.1 million as compared to $8.3 million last year, a decrease of $2.2 million or 26.3%. The decrease was primarily caused by a $2.2 million decrease in deliveries for F-16 night vision kits for the Korean air force as the Korean program was concluded in 2005.
2006 year to date sales increased 51.2 % to $81.8 million compared with $54.1 million for the same period last year. Sales to the commercial transport market increased $22.7 million, or 104.6% to $44.4 million compared with $21.7 million in the same period last year. This volume increase was driven by increased installations of in-seat power and in-flight entertainment systems utilizing our products. Sales to the business jet market were $16.7 million, up $4.8 million, or 39.9%, compared with $11.9 million for the same period in 2005. The increase of sales to the business jet market was due primarily to an increase in volume as production of new business jets by the airframe manufacturers increased over last year. Sales to the military market were $19.7 million, up from $19.5 million in the same period of 2005. Shipments for the Tactical Tomahawk and Taurus Missile programs were primarily responsible for a $1.9 million increase of sales for airframe power products to the military markets. This was offset by a $3.0 million decrease in deliveries for F-16 night vision kits for the Korean air force as the Korean program was concluded in 2005. The balance of the change for military sales was a result of a general increase in volume.
A portion of the 2006 year to date sales increase is due to the timing of the Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems acquisition. The acquisition date was February 3, 2005, as such the first nine months of 2005 contained only thirty four weeks of sales for Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems as compared with thirty nine weeks in the first nine months of 2006.

EXPENSES AND MARGINS
Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales remained basically flat at 78.0% for the third quarter of 2006 as compared to 79.8% for the same period last year. That decrease was primarily a result of the leverage provided by sales volume increases offset by a $0.6 million increase in engineering and development costs.
Year to date costs of products sold decreased by 2.5 percentage points to 77.6 % as compared to 80.1% for the same period last year. That decrease was also a result of the leverage provided by sales volume increases without a corresponding increase to our fixed manufacturing costs. That leverage was partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in engineering and development costs over the same period last year.
Selling, general and administrative and other (SG&A) expenses were $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2006, up from $2.9 million in the same period last year. But as a percent of sales, SG&A expenses was 12.5% for the third quarter of 2006 as compared to 14.7% for the same period in 2005 as sales grew at a faster pace than SG&A spending. The increase in total dollars was primarily due to increased wages and benefits due to increased staffing and compensation related costs and increased costs for audit and other professional services related to Sarbanes-Oxley 404 implementation.
For the first nine months of 2006 SG&A as a percentage of sales was 12.1% compared to 14.2% for the same period of 2005 as sales grew at a faster pace than SG&A spending. In terms of dollars SG&A costs increased $2.2 million to $9.9 million for the first nine months of 2006 from $7.7 million in the first nine months of 2005. The increase was due to increased wages and benefits due to increased staffing and compensation related costs and increased costs for audit and other professional services related to Sarbanes-Oxley 404 implementation. Also, a portion of the 2006 year to date SG&A increase is due to the timing of the Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems acquisition. The acquisition date was February 3, 2005, as such the first nine months of 2005 contained only thirty four weeks of expenses for Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems as compared with thirty nine weeks in the first nine months of 2006.
Net interest expense for the third quarter of 2006 and 2005 was $0.2 million. Net interest expense for the first nine months of 2006 increased by $0.1 million from $0.5 million in 2005 to $0.6 million due to an increase in interest rates.
TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2006 was 32.0 % compared to 48.0% last year. The 2006 year to date effective income tax rate was 36.4% compared to 50.7% last year. The 2005 tax rate was greater than the Company’s historical rates due primarily to the Company’s assessment of the impact of the new tax legislation in 2005 and the recording of a valuation allowance reducing the Company’s $0.5 million deferred tax asset relating to New York State tax credits to $40 thousand. As a result of this valuation allowance the Company recorded a non-cash charge to income tax expense of $0.3 million or $.04 per share during the second quarter of 2005.
NET INCOME AND EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $1.6 million or $0.20 per diluted share, an increase of $1.2 million from $0.4 million, or $0.06 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2005. The earnings per share increase was due to increased net income and was not significantly impacted by a change in shares outstanding.
LIQUIDITY
Cash used by operating activities totaled $2.7 million during the first nine months of 2006, as compared with $1.4 million of cash provided by operations during the first nine months of 2005. The change was due primarily to net income being offset by increased investment in net working capital components, primarily inventory and receivables associated with our increasing sales.
Cash used in investing activities decreased to $2.4 million in the first nine months of 2006, from $14.3 million used in the first nine months of 2005. This was due primarily to last year’s $13.4 million acquisition of Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems, offset partially by proceeds from the sale of short-term investments of $1.0 million in 2005. Capital expenditures increased by $0.5 million to $2.3 million in 2006 compared to $1.8 million in 2005.

In the first nine months of 2006 cash provided by financing activities totaled $1.3 million. The Company borrowed $0.9 million using its revolving credit facility and had proceeds from the issuance of stock relating to the exercise of stock options totaling $0.9 million. This was partially offset by principal payments against the long term debt of $0.5 million.
The Company has a $15 million demand line of credit facility. Interest on outstanding borrowings bears interest at either LIBOR plus an applicable margin, currently 150 basis points or prime interest rate, at the Company’s option. At September 30, 2006 the Company had $7.9 million outstanding on the line of credit. The line is subject to annual review and is payable on demand. The line of credit, among other requirements, imposes certain financial performance covenants measured on an annual basis with which the Company anticipates it will be compliant.
During the third quarter the Company committed to proceed with an expansion to its East Aurora, NY operation. The facility is expected to be completed in the first half of 2007 and will add 57,000 square feet of production capacity. The cost for the expansion, including the initial acquisition of machinery and equipment is expected to be approximately $7.5 million. The project has received an Industrial Revenue Bond inducement from the Erie County Industrial Development Agency and expects to finance the project through the issuance of long term Industrial Revenue Bonds.
The Company believes that cash flow from operations and its available credit facility will be adequate to meet the Company’s operational and capital expenditure requirements for 2006.
BACKLOG
The Company’s backlog at September 30, 2006 was $88.1 million compared with $78.4 million at October 1, 2005.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS
The Company’s contractual obligations and commercial commitments have not changed materially from disclosures in the Company’s Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2005 except for those related to the 57,000 square foot building expansion project in East Aurora, NY. As of September 30, 2006, the Company estimates that obligations related to that project range between $0.7 and $1.0 million.
MARKET RISK
Risk due to fluctuation in interest rates is a function of the Company’s floating rate debt obligations, which total approximately $9.8 million at September 30, 2006. To partially offset this exposure, the Company entered into an interest rate swap in February 2006, on its New York Industrial Revenue Bond which effectively fixes the rate at 3.99% on this $4.3 million obligation through January 2016. As a result, a change of 1% in interest rates would impact annual net income by less than $0.1 million.
There have been no material changes in the current year regarding the market risk information for its exposure to currency exchange rates. The Company has limited exposure to fluctuation in Canadian currency exchange rates to the U.S. dollar.
Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2005 for a complete discussion of the Company’s market risk.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Refer to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2005 for a complete discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies. Other than the adoption of SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payments,” (see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) there have been no significant changes in the current year regarding critical accounting policies.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
During the first quarter of 2006, we adopted SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” applying the modified prospective method. This Statement requires all equity-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the statement of earnings based on the grant date fair value of the award. Under the modified prospective method, we are required to record equity-based compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards outstanding as of the date of adoption. We use a straight-line method of attributing the value of stock-based compensation expense, based

on vesting. Stock compensation expense was $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2006 and $0.4 million year to date, after taxes. No stock compensation expense was recognized prior to 2006.
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation for SFAS No. 109.” FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with for SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” The pronouncement prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributable to financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any; the adoption of FIN 48 will have on our financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Where applicable, this Statement simplifies and codifies related guidance within generally accepted accounting principles. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any; the adoption of Statement No. 157 will have on our financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R).” The Statement requires employers to fully recognize the obligations associated with single-employer defined benefit pension, retiree healthcare and other postretirement plans in their financial statements. Statement 158 also requires companies to measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions) instead of permitting companies to use a lag of up to three-months permitted by FASB Statement No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”, and FASB Statement No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions”. The Company is in the process of determining the effect, if any; the adoption of Statement No. 158 will have on our financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As discussed in Note 12 of the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Restated),” contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q/A, we have restated in this Form 10-Q/A our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005 (the “Third Quarter Restatement”).

specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. However, as described below in “Application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” during the Company’s 2006 year-end audit the Company became aware that its revenue recognition policy with regard to a bill and hold arrangement with one customer did not meet all of the criteria necessary to allow it to recognize revenue for the transaction while the product remained in the Company’s facility. As such Management has concluded that a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting existed at September 30, 2006.
     (b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting: There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting . As such, the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that existed as of December 31, 2005, as described and as disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of our Amended 2005 Form 10-K/A, continued to exist as of September 30, 2006.
“Application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”
     During the Company’s 2006 year-end audit the Company became aware that its revenue recognition policy with regard to a bill and hold arrangement with one customer did not meet all of the criteria necessary to allow it to recognize revenue for the transaction while the product remained in the Company’s facility. As such Management has concluded that a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting existed at September 30, 2006. The Company believes it has taken action to remediate the weakness that includes training with regard to bill and hold arrangements and approval of any proposed bill and hold arrangement by the CEO and CFO of the Company.
