ASTRONICS CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2007
(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 three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007.
The balance sheet at December 31, 2006 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 Corporations (the Company) 2006 annual report on Form 10-K.
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 Companys 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 $7.85 for options granted
during the six month period ended June 30, 2007 and was $6.05 for options granted during the six
month period ended July 1, 2006. The following table provides the range of assumptions used to
value stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and July 1, 2006.

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 Companys
history and expectation of dividend payouts. The expected term of stock options is based on vesting
schedules, expected exercise patterns and contractual terms.

8) Income Taxes
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting and
disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined. FIN 48 seeks to reduce the diversity in
practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting
for income taxes. The Company is subject to the provisions of FIN 48 as of January 1, 2007, and has
analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to
file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The Company believes
that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit. Therefore, no
reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to FIN 48, and, the Company
was not required to record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of FIN 48.
In the future, should the Company need to accrue a liability for unrecognized tax benefits, any
interest associated with that liability will be recorded as interest expense. Penalties, if any,
would be recognized as operating expenses. There are no penalties or interest liability accrued as of June 30, 2007. In years previous, any
interest and penalties were insignificant and recorded as income tax expense. The years under which
the Company conducted its evaluation coincided with the tax years currently still subject to
examination by major federal and state tax jurisdictions, those being 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006.
Prior to January 1, 2007, the Company recorded accruals for tax contingencies and related interest
when it was probable that a liability had been incurred and the amount of the contingency could be
reasonably estimated based on specific events such as an audit or inquiry by a taxing authority.
9) Sales To Major Customers
The Company has a significant concentration of business with two customers. Sales to Panasonic
Avionics Corporation amounted to approximately 29% and 21% of revenue during the second quarter
2007 and 2006 respectively and approximately 29% and 19% of year to date revenue in 2007 and 2006,
respectively. Accounts receivable for this customer amounted to 29% and 11% of the Companys gross
trade receivables as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
Sales to Air Canada amounted to approximately 8% and 8% of revenue during the second quarter 2007
and 2006 respectively and approximately 10% and 6% of year to date revenue in 2007 and 2006
respectively. Accounts receivable amounted to 5% and 8% of the Companys gross trade receivables
as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
10) Product Warranties
In the ordinary course of business, the Company warrants its products against defects in design,
materials and workmanship typically over periods ranging from twelve to sixty months. The Company
determines warranty reserves needed by product line based on historical experience and current
facts and circumstances. Activity in the warranty accrual is summarized as follows:

Principal maturities of long-term debt are $0.9 million in 2007 and 2008 and are $1.2 million in 2009 thru 2011.
Interest capitalized in the 2nd quarter relating to the building expansion in New York was
insignificant. No interest costs were capitalized in 2006.
At June 30, 2007 the Company had $15.3 million outstanding on its revolving $20 million credit
facility; interest at bank prime minus between 0 and 25 basis points or LIBOR plus between 87.5 and
175 basis points. The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.125% and 0.30%
on the unused portion of the line limit borrowing availability for the previous quarter. The
Company may allocate up to $0.5 million of its availability for the issuance of new letters of
credit. At June 30, 2007, the Company had available $4.7 million on the facility. This credit
facility is collateralized by accounts receivable and inventory. The Company believes it will be
compliant in the future with all the new credit facility covenants.
On July 25, 2007, the Company increased its existing revolving line of credit from a $20
million credit facility to a $25 million credit facility. All other terms and provisions of the
existing credit agreement remain in full force and effect.
12) New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP), clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework, and expands disclosures about
the use of fair value measurement. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. It will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2008 and interim periods within
that fiscal year. The Company is in the process of determining the effect the adoption of SFAS No.
157 will have, if any, on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities, which allows measurement of specified financial instruments, warranty and
insurance contracts at fair value on a contract by contract basis, with changes in fair value
recognized in earnings in each period. SFAS 159 is effective at the beginning of the fiscal year
that begins after November 15, 2007, and will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2008. The
Company is in the process of determining the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have, if any,
on our consolidated financial statements.

SALES
Sales for the second quarter of 2007 increased 43.8% to $41.4 million compared with $28.8 million
for the same period last year. The sales growth was primarily attributable to an increase in
volume of our cabin electronics product line sold to the commercial transport market and increased
cockpit lighting products sold to the business jet markets. Sales to the commercial transport
market were $27.7 million, as compared to $16.7 million for the same period of 2006, an increase of
$11.0 million or 66.2 % due to volume. Increased demand by global commercial airlines for in-flight
entertainment systems and in-seat power systems that utilize our cabin electronics technology drove
the sales increase in the commercial transport market. Sales to the business jet market were $6.6
million, up $1.2 million, or 20.7%, compared with sales of $5.4 million for the same period in
2006. The increase of sales to the business jet market was due primarily to a general increase in
volume. Sales to the military market were $6.8 million as compared to $6.5 million last year, an
increase of $0.3 million or 4.9%.
2007 year to date sales increased 55.7 % to $84.2 million compared with $54.1 million for the same
period last year. The sales growth was primarily attributable to an increase in volume of cabin
electronics sales to the commercial transport market and increased sales of cockpit lighting and
airframe power to the business jet market. Sales to the commercial transport market were up $26.8
million, or 91.2% to $56.3 million compared with $29.5 million last year. The increase was a
result of increased demand by global commercial airlines for in-flight entertainment systems and
in-seat power systems that utilize our cabin electronics technology. Over the past several years,
many airlines initiated programs to upgrade and refurbish the cabins on a portion of their existing
fleets, installing in-flight entertainment and in-seat power systems that utilize our products. In
addition, more of the new aircraft deliveries to the airlines have included in-flight entertainment
and in-seat power systems that utilize our products. Sales to the business jet market were $14.3
million, up $4.0 million, or 38.7%, compared with $10.3 million for the same period in 2006. The
increase of sales to the business jet market was due primarily to new programs such as the Eclipse
500 and Piaggio P180 Avanti II entering production and a general increase in volume. Sales to the
military market were $13.0 million, down from $13.6 million in the same period of 2006. The
decrease is due to primarily a result of decreases in sales of spare parts.
We are continuing through 2007 with strong momentum. Each of the markets that we serve
continues to present opportunities that we expect will provide continued growth for the company. We
are now projecting 2007 revenues to be $150 $155 million, driven by a strong global and aerospace
economy.

13
EXPENSES AND MARGINS
Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales decreased to 72.4% for the second quarter of 2007 as
compared to 76.6% for the same period last year. That decrease was the result of the leverage
provided by the sales increase offset by $1.1 million increase of engineering and development
costs.
Year to date cost of products sold as a percentage of sales decreased to 72.6% as compared to 77.5%
for the same period last year. That decrease was the result of the leverage provided by the sales
increase offset by $2.1 million increase of engineering and development costs.
Selling, general and administrative and other (SG&A) expenses were $4.4 million in the second
quarter of 2007, up from $3.4 million in the same period last year. As a percent of sales, SG&A
expense was 10.6% for the second quarter of 2007 as compared to 11.9% for the same period in 2006
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.
Year to date selling, general and administrative and other (SG&A) expenses were $8.7 million, up
from $6.5 million in the same period last year. As a percent of sales, year to date SG&A expense
was 10.3% in 2007 as compared to 11.9% for the same period in 2006 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.
Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2007 was $0.4 million compared to 2006 which was
$0.2 million. Net interest expense for the first six months of 2007 was $0.7 million compared to
2006 which was $0.4 million. Net interest expense increased due to a combination of higher debt
levels and increases in interest rates. During 2007 the Company capitalized interest relating to
the expansion of its East Aurora, New York plant. 2007 year to date capitalized interest was $0.06
million. Interest capitalized during the second quarter 2007 was $0.03 million. No interest was
capitalized during the same periods of 2006.
TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2007 was 32.4% compared to 37.2% last year.
The decreased effective rate in 2007 was primarily due to decreases in permanent differences which
do not provide tax benefits and decreases in foreign and state taxes.
The 2007 year to date effective income tax rate was 33.1% compared to 38.5% last year. The
decreased effective rate in 2007 was primarily due to decreases in permanent differences which do
not provide tax benefits and decreases in foreign and state taxes.
The Company expects its effective tax rate to approximate the statutory rates in the future.
NET INCOME AND EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net income for the second quarter of 2007 was $4.5 million or $0.53 per diluted share, an increase
of $2.5 million from $2.0 million, or $0.24 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2006. Year
to date net income was $9.2 million or $1.08 per diluted share, an increase of $5.9 million from
$3.3 million, or $0.40 per diluted share. 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 for operating activities totaled $4.7 million during the first six months of 2007, as
compared with $1.3 million of cash used by operations during the first six months of 2006. 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 was $6.0 million in the first six months of 2007, increasing by
$4.4 million compared to $1.6 million used in the first six months of 2006. This was due primarily
to $2.6 million spent during the first six months on the facility expansion to the East Aurora New
York facility and investment in machinery and equipment to add production capacity.
14
The negative cash flow from operations and investment in property plant and equipment was financed
by net borrowings on our revolving credit facility totaling $7.2 million and issuance of long-term
debt totaling $6.0 million.
In the first six months of 2007 cash provided by financing activities totaled $11.7 million. The
Company had net borrowings of $7.2 million against its revolving credit facility for the facility
expansion in New York and to provide financing for operating costs.
At June 30, 2007 the Company had $15.3 million outstanding on its $20 million revolving credit
facility. The agreement is a committed two year facility through January 5, 2009. In July, 2007
the Company increased its revolving credit facility to $25 million. At June 30, 2007, the Company
was in compliance with all of the covenants pursuant to the credit facility in existence with HSBC
Bank USA at that time.
During the third quarter of 2006 the Company committed to proceed with a facility and equipment
expansion to its East Aurora, NY operation. The building was substantially completed in the second
quarter of 2007 and added 57,000 square feet of production capacity. When the project is complete,
the cost for the building, including the initial acquisition of machinery and equipment is expected
to be approximately $7.5 million.
On April 24, 2007, to fund a portion of the expansion to its facility in East Aurora, New York and
the acquisition of additional equipment to be located at such, Luminescent Systems, Inc., a
subsidiary of the Company, entered into a tax exempt industrial revenue bond transaction. Under
this bond transaction, the Erie County Industrial Development Agency issued on April 24, 2007 tax
exempt bonds in the principal amount of $6.0 million to pay for qualified project costs.
Approximately $3.2 million of the proceeds from this debt issuance was used immediately to pay down
the unsecured revolving credit facility which was used for qualified project expenditures. The
balance will be drawn as qualified project expenditures are incurred. These Bonds mature on April
1, 2027. The interest rate applicable to the Bonds is a variable tax exempt bond rate that is
adjusted weekly, based upon a minimum rate of interest necessary to enable the Remarketing Agent to
remarket the Bonds at par. The initial interest rate was 3.85% and was 3.9% at June 30, 2007. The
obligations are secured by a mortgage on the Companys facility in East Aurora, New York and a
security interest in the equipment at such facility. The obligations of the Company and Luminescent
Systems Inc. are also secured by a pledge by the Company of the stock of the Companys subsidiary,
Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems Corp.
The Companys cash needs for working capital, capital equipment and debt service during 2007 and
the foreseeable future, are expected to be met by cash flows from operations, and if necessary,
utilization of its revolving credit facility.
BACKLOG
The Companys backlog at June 30, 2007 was $94.3 million compared with $89.8 million at July 1,
2006.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS
The Companys contractual obligations and commercial commitments have not changed materially from
disclosures in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, with the exception of
the $0.7 million construction obligation at December 31, 2006 relating to the expansion project in
East Aurora, NY. We believe that this obligation has been satisfied.
MARKET RISK
Risk due to fluctuation in interest rates is a function of the Companys floating rate debt
obligations, which total approximately $12.0 million at June 30, 2007. 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 $4.0 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 Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 for a
complete discussion of the Companys market risk.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Refer to the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 for a
complete discussion of the Companys critical accounting policies. Other than the adoption of FASB
Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), (see Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) there
have been no significant changes in the current year regarding critical accounting policies.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP), clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework, and expands disclosures about
the use of fair value measurement. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of
determining the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have, if any, on our consolidated
financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities, which allows measurement of specified financial instruments, warranty and
insurance contracts at fair value on a contract by contract basis, with changes in fair value
recognized in earnings in each period. SFAS 159 is effective at the beginning of the fiscal year
that begins after November 15, 2007, and will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2008. The
Company is in the process of determining the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have, if any,
on our consolidated financial statements.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report contains certain forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involves uncertainties and risks. These statements
are identified by the use of the words believes, expects, intends, anticipates, may,
will, estimate, potential and words of similar import. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward looking statements as various uncertainties and risks could cause
actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these statements. These uncertainties
and risks include the success of the Company with effectively executing its plans; the timeliness
of product deliveries by vendors and other vendor performance issues; changes in demand for our
products from the U.S. government and other customers; the acceptance by the market of new products
developed; our success in cross-selling products to different customers and markets; changes in
government contracts; the state of the commercial and business jet aerospace market; the Companys
success at increasing the content on current and new aircraft platforms; the level of aircraft
build rates; as well as other general economic conditions and other factors.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
See Market Risk in Item 2, above.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Companys management, with the participation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and
procedures as of June 30, 2007. Based on that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of June 30, 2007.
During the Companys 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 Companys facility. As such Management concluded that a material weakness in the Companys
internal control over financial reporting existed at December 31, 2006. The Company believes it has
taken appropriate action to remediate the weakness during the first quarter of 2007, which 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. There were no other material changes in the
Companys internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2007 and no
material changes during the second quarter 2007.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
None.
Item 1a Risk Factors.
In addition to other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the
factors discussed in Part 1, Item 1A. Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2006, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or
results of operations. The risks described in our Annual Report of Form 10-K are not the only risks
facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem
to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or
results of operations.
The Company has a significant concentration of business with Panasonic Avionics Corporation. A
significant reduction in sales would negatively impact our sales and earnings. We provide
Panasonic with cabin electronics products which, in total were approximately 29% of revenue for
both the first and second quarters of 2007.
Item 2. Unregistered sales of equity securities and use of proceeds.
