Sales to U.S. government end customers include the Department of Defense ("DoD") and intelligence and civilian agencies, as well as sales directly to or through prime contractors.

Excluding sales in our mobile data communications segment, aggregate sales to U.S. government end customers for our telecommunications transmission and RF microwave amplifiers segments were 25.7% and 25.8% of the combined net sales of these two segments for the three months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Excluding sales in our mobile data communications segment, aggregate sales to U.S. government end customers for our telecommunications transmission and RF microwave amplifiers segments were 23.2% and 31.5% of the combined net sales of these two segments for the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

International sales for the three months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013 (which include sales to U.S. domestic companies for inclusion in products that will be sold to international customers) were $49,144,000 and $40,471,000, respectively. International sales for the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013 (which include sales to U.S. domestic companies for inclusion in products that will be sold to international customers) were $96,684,000 and $79,689,000, respectively.

For the three and six months ended January 31, 2014, sales to a prime contractor represented approximately 13.5% and 13.0%, respectively, of consolidated net sales (almost all of which related to our North African country end-customer).

For the three and six months ended January 31, 2013, except for the U.S. government, no other customer or individual country (including sales to U.S. domestic companies for inclusion in products that will be sold to a foreign country) represented more than 10% of consolidated net sales.
