    affect the future financial results and condition of the
    Company. Factors that may have a material effect on our
    revenues, expenses and operating results include adverse
    business or market conditions, our ability to secure and satisfy
    customers, our customers&#146; financial condition and their
    ability to secure financing to support current and future

    adverse competitive developments and changes in customer
    requirements as well as those circumstances discussed under
    &#147;Item&#160;1A. Risk Factors,&#148; below. Accordingly,
    actual results may differ materially from those expressed or
    implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this
    Annual Report. Any forward-looking statements made by or on our
    behalf are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the
    Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

    The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report
    are based on current assumptions that we will continue to
    develop, market, manufacture and ship products and provide
    services on a competitive and timely basis; that competitive
    conditions in our markets will not change in a materially
    adverse way; that we will accurately identify and meet customer
    needs for products and services; that we will be able to retain
    and hire key employees; that our products and capabilities will
    remain competitive; that the financial markets and banking
    systems will stabilize and availability of credit will continue;
    that risks related to shifts in customer demand are minimized
    and that there will be no material adverse change in the
    operations or business of the Company. Assumptions relating to
    these factors involve judgments that are based on available
    information, which may not be complete, and are subject to
    changes in many factors beyond the Company&#146;s control that
    can materially affect results. Because of these and other
    factors that affect our operating results, past financial
    performance should not be considered an indicator of future
    performance, and investors should not use historical trends to
    anticipate results or trends in future periods.

    Backlog represents the dollar amount of revenue that we expect
    to realize from work to be performed on uncompleted contracts,
    including new contractual agreements on which work has not
    begun. Our methodology for determining backlog may not be
    comparable to the methodology used by other companies. Orders

    orders and contracts, which we believe to be firm. Orders in the
    Electrical Power Products business segment backlog at
    September&#160;30, 2010, totaled $245.4&#160;million compared to
    $329.6&#160;million at September&#160;30, 2009. Our backlog has
    declined due to the ongoing economic downturn which has lead our
    customers to reduce and delay spending on new capital projects.
    We anticipate that approximately $242.6&#160;million of our
    ending fiscal 2010 backlog will be fulfilled during our fiscal

    volatility for certain commodities, in particular steel, copper

    products. While the cost outlook for commodities used in the

    This business segment&#146;s products and services are
    principally sold directly to end-users in the transportation,
    environmental and energy sectors. From time to time, a
    significant percentage of revenues may result from one specific
    contract or customer due to the nature of large projects common
    to this business segment. In each of the past three fiscal
    years, revenues with one or more customers individually
    accounted for more than 10% of our segment revenues. Revenues
    from these customers totaled $3.2&#160;million,
    $7.4&#160;million and $5.4&#160;million in fiscal 2010, 2009 and
    2008, respectively. Contracts often represent large-scale,
    single-need projects with an individual customer. By their
    nature, these projects are typically nonrecurring for a given
    customer. Thus, multiple
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">and/or</FONT>
    continuous projects of similar magnitude with the same customer
    are rare. As such, gaps in large project awards may cause
    material fluctuations in segment revenues.

    On April&#160;22, 2010, the drilling rig <I>Deepwater
    Horizon</I>, which was engaged in deepwater drilling operations
    in the U.S.&#160;Gulf of Mexico, sank after an explosion and
    fire. The incident resulted in a significant and uncontrolled
    oil spill off the coast of Louisiana. On May&#160;28, 2010, the
    U.S.&#160;government imposed a six-month moratorium on all
    offshore deepwater drilling projects. A preliminary injunction
    was issued blocking enforcement of the moratorium on
    June&#160;22, 2010, and the U.S.&#160;government issued a new
    moratorium on deepwater drilling on July&#160;12, 2010. On
    October&#160;12, 2010, the U.S.&#160;government lifted the
    moratorium. The U.S.&#160;government has also implemented
    additional safety and certification requirements applicable to
    drilling activities in the U.S.&#160;Gulf of Mexico, has imposed
    additional requirements with respect to development and
    production activities in the U.S.&#160;Gulf of Mexico and has
    delayed the approval of applications to drill in both deepwater
    and shallow-water areas. In addition, the U.S.&#160;government
    has announced that it intends to require that operators
    demonstrate their compliance with new regulations before
    resuming deepwater drilling. We cannot predict when, if at all,

    deepwater drilling projects and related new regulations may have
    on the regulation of offshore oil and gas exploration and

    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">percentage-of-completion</FONT>
    accounting practice we use results in our recognizing contract
    revenues and earnings ratably over the contract term in
    proportion to our incurrence of contract costs. The earnings or
    losses recognized on individual contracts are based on estimates
    of contract revenues, costs and profitability. The process of
    estimating costs on projects requires a significant amount of
    judgment and combines professional engineering, cost estimating,
    pricing and accounting inputs. Contract losses are recognized in
    full when determined, and contract profit estimates of revenue
    and cost to complete are adjusted based on ongoing reviews of
    estimated contract profitability. Previously recorded estimates
    are adjusted as the project progresses. In certain
    circumstances, it is possible that such adjustments could have a
    significant impact on our operating results for any fiscal
    quarter or year. Some of our contracts contain penalty
    provisions that require us to pay liquidated damages if we are
    responsible for the failure to meet specified contractual
    milestones and the applicable customer asserts a claim under
    these provisions. These contractual provisions define the
    conditions under which our customers may make claims against us
    to pay liquidated damages. In many cases in which we have had
    potential exposure for liquidated damages, such damages
    ultimately were not fully asserted by our customers.

    We have a backlog of work to be completed on contracts. Orders
    included in our backlog are represented by customer purchase
    orders and contracts, which we believe to be firm. Backlog
    develops as a result of new business taken, which represents the
    revenue value of new project commitments received by us during a
    given period. Backlog consists of projects which either
    (1)&#160;have not yet been started or (2)&#160;are in progress
    and are not yet completed. In the latter case, the revenue value
    reported in backlog is the remaining value associated with work
    that has not yet been completed. From time to time, projects are
    canceled that appeared to have a high certainty of going forward
    at the time they were recorded as new business taken. In the
    event of a project cancellation, we may be reimbursed for
    certain costs but typically have no contractual right to the
    total revenue reflected in our backlog. In addition to our being
    unable to recover certain direct costs, canceled projects may
    also result in additional unrecoverable costs due to the
    resulting underutilization of our assets.

    Throughout fiscal years 2007 and 2008, we experienced strong
    market demand for our products and services. New investments in
    oil and gas infrastructure, as well as new investments by
    municipal and transit authorities to expand and improve public
    transportation, were key drivers of increased business volume
    with favorable margins in fiscal year 2009. Customer inquiries
    and requests for proposals remained strong throughout fiscal
    2008 and the first half of fiscal 2009. Accordingly, we entered
    fiscal 2009 with a strong backlog of orders which resulted in
    record revenues in fiscal year 2009. Throughout the second half
    of 2009, customer inquiries and requests for proposal activity
    decreased and an increasing number of our customers began to
    cancel or delay the start of new capital projects for various
    reasons. This decreased our backlog of orders during 2009, and
    we began fiscal year 2010 with a backlog of $365.8&#160;million,
    a $152.8&#160;million decrease from the backlog of orders at the
    beginning of fiscal year 2009. The order backlog at
    September&#160;30, 2010, was $282.3&#160;million. This decline
    in orders related to large capital projects with favorable
    margins in the second half of fiscal 2009 and throughout fiscal
    year 2010 will reduce our revenues and gross profits in fiscal
    year 2011, as compared to fiscal years 2009 and 2010.

    On December&#160;15, 2009, we acquired the business and certain
    assets of PowerComm Inc. and its subsidiaries, Redhill Systems
    Ltd., Nextron Corporation, PCG Technical Services Inc. and
    Concorde Metal Manufacturing Ltd (the entire business of which
    is referred to herein as Powell Canada). Powell Canada is
    headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and provides
    electrical and maintenance services in western Canada. Powell
    Canada is also a manufacturer of switchgear and related
    products, primarily serving the oil and gas industry in western
    Canada. The operating results of Powell Canada are included in
    our Electrical Power Products business segment from the
    acquisition date. In conjunction with the acquisition of Powell
    Canada, on April&#160;1, 2010, we finalized the acquisition of a
    50% ownership in a joint venture in Kazakhstan. The Company has
    made a strategic decision to exit this joint venture. For

    $665.9&#160;million in Fiscal 2009 compared to
    $638.7&#160;million in Fiscal 2008. Revenues increased as we
    responded to strong market demand by increasing our capacity and

    $516.0&#160;million in Fiscal 2009 compared to
    $469.1&#160;million in Fiscal 2008. International revenues
    decreased from $169.6&#160;million in Fiscal 2008 to
    $149.9&#160;million in Fiscal 2009, primarily as the result of
    changes in the British Pound
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">Sterling-to-U.S.&#160;Dollar</FONT>
    exchange rate. The increase in consolidated revenues was
    primarily due to an increased sales effort and strong market
    demand in Fiscal 2008 and the first half of Fiscal 2009. Gross
    profit in Fiscal 2009 increased by approximately
    $18.6&#160;million compared to Fiscal 2008 as a result of our
    ability to absorb our fixed costs and improved pricing as a
    result of strong market activity.

    As of September&#160;30, 2010, the total unrecognized tax
    benefit related to uncertain tax positions was approximately
    $0.8&#160;million. We estimate that none of this will be paid

    unrecognized tax benefits will remain unchanged due to the

    We participate in large capital-intensive projects in the oil
    and gas, petrochemical, utility and transportation markets,
    which can take several years to plan and execute. Once our
    customers begin the construction phase, projects are typically
    completed. Our record revenues in Fiscal 2009 were driven by the

    However, our backlog of orders going into our fiscal year 2011
    (Fiscal 2011)&#160;is approximately $282.3&#160;million, a
    decrease of $83.5&#160;million from the beginning backlog of
    orders going into Fiscal 2010. Throughout the second half of
    Fiscal 2009 and continuing into Fiscal 2010, customer inquiries
    and requests for proposal activity decreased and an increasing
    number of our customers cancelled or delayed the start of new
    capital projects. We believe these delays resulted from the
    short-term reduction in the demand for oil, uncertainty in the
    worldwide economy and financial markets, as well as increasing
    uncertainty as to the impact that potential regulatory changes
    could have on their business.

    Growth in demand for energy is expected to continue over the

    ensure the available supply of petroleum products. New power

    We account for income taxes under the asset and liability
    method, based on the income tax laws and rates in the countries
    in which operations are conducted and income is earned. This
    approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and
    liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of
    temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax
    basis of assets and liabilities. Developing our provision for
    income taxes requires significant judgment and expertise in
    federal, international and state income tax laws, regulations
    and strategies, including the determination of deferred tax
    assets and liabilities and, if necessary, any valuation
    allowances that may be required for deferred tax assets. We
    record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets
    to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We
    believe that the deferred tax asset recorded as of
    September&#160;30, 2010, is realizable through future reversals
    of existing taxable temporary differences and future taxable
    income. If we were to subsequently determine that we would be
    able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of
    our net recorded amount, an adjustment to deferred tax assets
    would increase earnings for the period in which such
    determination was made. We will continue to assess the adequacy
    of the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. Our judgments
    and tax strategies are subject to audit by various taxing
    authorities.

    The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize
    the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year
    and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax
    consequences of events that have been recognized in an
    entity&#146;s financial statements or tax returns. We recognize
    the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is
    more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on
    examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical
    merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the
    financial statements from such a position should be measured
    based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50%
    likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
    Accounting literature also provides guidance on derecognition of
    income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and

    tax disclosures. Judgment is required in assessing the future

    In December 2007, the FASB issued accounting guidance on
    business combinations. The guidance establishes principles and
    requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its
    financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the
    liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree
    and the goodwill acquired. The accounting guidance also
    establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of
    the nature and financial effects of the business combination.
    The guidance is effective as of the beginning of an
    entity&#146;s fiscal year that begins after December&#160;15,
    2008, and was adopted by us on October&#160;1, 2009. Refer to

    In December 2007, the FASB issued accounting guidance for
    noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements.
    This guidance establishes accounting and reporting standards for
    ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than
    the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable
    to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a
    parent&#146;s ownership interest and the valuation of retained
    noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is
    deconsolidated. The accounting guidance also establishes
    disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish

    In April 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance regarding the
    accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a
    business combination due to contingencies. This guidance
    clarifies the initial and subsequent recognition, subsequent
    accounting and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from
    contingencies in a business combination. This guidance requires
    that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business
    combination that arise from contingencies be recognized at fair
    value, if the acquisition-date fair value can be reasonably
    estimated. If the acquisition-date fair value of an asset or
    liability cannot be reasonably estimated, the asset or liability
    would be measured at the amount that would be recognized using
    the accounting guidance related to accounting for contingencies
    or the guidance for reasonably estimating losses. This
    accounting guidance became effective for us on October&#160;1,
    2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material
    impact on our consolidated financial statements.

    In January 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance to amend the
    disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring
    fair value measurements. This update requires new disclosures
    about significant transfers of assets and liabilities between
    Level&#160;1 and Level&#160;2 of the fair value hierarchy
    (including the reasons for these transfers) and the reasons for
    any transfers in or out of Level&#160;3. This update also
    requires a reconciliation of recurring Level&#160;3 measurements
    about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross
    basis. In addition to these new disclosure requirements, this
    update clarifies certain existing disclosure requirements. For
    example, this update clarifies that reporting entities are
    required to provide fair value measurement disclosures for each
    class of assets and liabilities, rather than each major category
    of assets or liabilities. This update also clarifies the
    requirement for entities to disclose information about both the
    valuation techniques and inputs used in estimating Level&#160;2
    and Level&#160;3 fair value measurements. This update will
    become effective for us with the interim and annual reporting
    period beginning after December&#160;15, 2009, our fiscal year
    2011, except for the requirement to provide the Level&#160;3
    activity of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a
    gross basis, which will become effective for us with the interim
    and annual reporting period beginning after December&#160;15,
    2010, our fiscal year 2012. We will not be required to provide
    the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for
    comparative purposes. Other than requiring additional
    disclosures, adoption of this update will not have a material
    impact on our consolidated financial statements.

    In April 2010, the FASB issued accounting guidance for the
    milestone method of revenue recognition. This guidance allows
    entities to make a policy election to use the milestone method
    of revenue recognition and provides guidance on defining a
    milestone and the criteria that should be met for applying the
    milestone method. The scope of this guidance is limited to
    transactions involving milestones relating to research and
    development deliverables. The guidance includes enhanced
    disclosure requirements about each arrangement, individual
    milestones and related contingent consideration, information
    about substantive milestones and factors considered in the
    determination. This guidance is effective prospectively to
    milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within
    those years, beginning after June&#160;15, 2010. Early
    application and retrospective application are permitted. We have
    evaluated this new guidance and have determined that it will not
    currently have a significant impact on the determination or
    reporting of our financial results.

    We are subject to market risk resulting from changes in interest
    rates related to our floating rate bank credit facility. At
    September&#160;30, 2010, $15.2&#160;million was outstanding,

    We have operations that expose us to currency risk in the

    extent the Euro. Amounts invested in our foreign operations are
    translated into U.S.&#160;Dollars at the exchange rates in
    effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting translation
    adjustments are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive
    income (loss), a component of stockholders&#146; equity in our
    consolidated balance sheets. We believe the exposure to the
    effects that fluctuating foreign currencies have on our
    consolidated results of operations is limited because the
    foreign operations primarily invoice customers and collect
    obligations in their respective currencies or U.S.&#160;Dollars.
    Our international operations are financed utilizing local credit
    facilities denominated in local currencies. Additionally,
    expenses associated with these transactions are generally
    contracted and paid for in the same local currencies. A 10%
    unfavorable change in the U.S.&#160;Dollar exchange rate,
    relative to other functional currencies in which we operate,
    would not materially impact our consolidated balance sheet at
    September&#160;30, 2010.

    During Fiscal 2009 and Fiscal 2010, we entered into eight
    foreign currency forward contracts to manage the volatility of

    designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. The
    changes in fair value related to the effective portion of the
    hedges are recognized as a component of accumulated other
    comprehensive income on our consolidated balance sheets. At
    September&#160;30, 2010, we recorded a net liability of
    approximately $47,000 on our consolidated balance sheets related
    to these transactions.

    In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in
    the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects,
    the financial position of Powell Industries, Inc. and its
    subsidiaries at September&#160;30, 2010 and 2009, and the
    results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
    three years in the period ended September&#160;30, 2010 in
    conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
    United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company
    maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control
    over financial reporting as of September&#160;30, 2010, based on
    criteria established in <I>Internal Control&#160;&#151;
    Integrated Framework </I>issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
    Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The
    Company&#146;s management is responsible for these financial
    statements, for maintaining effective internal control over
    financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness
    of internal control over financial reporting, included in
    Management&#146;s Report on Internal Control over Financial
    Reporting appearing under Item&#160;9A. Our responsibility is to
    express opinions on these financial statements and on the
    Company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting based
    on our integrated 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
    the financial statements are free of material misstatement and
    whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
    maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial
    statements included 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, and evaluating the
    overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal
    control over financial reporting included obtaining an
    understanding of internal control over financial reporting,
    assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing
    and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
    internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also
    included performing such other procedures as we considered
    necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits
    provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

    A company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting is a
    process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
    reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
    financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
    generally accepted accounting principles. A company&#146;s
    internal control over financial reporting includes those
    policies and procedures that (i)&#160;pertain to the maintenance
    of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
    reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
    company; (ii)&#160;provide reasonable assurance that
    transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
    financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
    accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the
    company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
    management and directors of the company; and (iii)&#160;provide
    reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
    unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
    company&#146;s assets that could have a material effect on the
    financial statements.

    Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
    financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
    Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
    periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
    inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
    of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

    As described in Management&#146;s Report on Internal Control
    over Financial Reporting appearing under Item&#160;9A,
    management has excluded Powell Canada from its assessment of
    internal control over financial reporting as of
    September&#160;30, 2010 because it was acquired by the Company
    in a purchase business combination in December&#160;2009. We
    have also excluded Powell Canada from our audit of internal
    control over financial reporting. Powell Canada is a
    wholly-owned subsidiary whose total assets and total revenues
    represent 10% and 9%, respectively, of the related consolidated
    financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended
    September&#160;30, 2010.

    On December&#160;15, 2009, we acquired the business and certain
    assets of PowerComm Inc. and its subsidiaries, Redhill Systems
    Ltd., Nextron Corporation, PCG Technical Services Inc. and
    Concorde Metal Manufacturing Ltd (the entire business of which
    is referred to herein as Powell Canada) for $23.4&#160;million,
    not including expenses. Powell Canada is headquartered in
    Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and provides electrical and
    maintenance services in western Canada. Powell Canada is also a
    manufacturer of switchgear and related products, primarily
    serving the oil and gas industry in western Canada. The
    operating results of Powell Canada are included in our
    Electrical Power Products business segment from the acquisition
    date. In conjunction with the acquisition of Powell Canada, on
    April&#160;1, 2010, we finalized the acquisition of a 50%
    ownership in a joint venture in Kazakhstan. Our interest in the
    net assets of the 50% ownership in the joint venture is recorded
    at its estimated net realizable value, as the Company has made a
    strategic decision to exit this joint venture. For further
    information on the Powell Canada acquisition, see Note&#160;D.

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
    accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
    (U.S.&#160;GAAP) requires management to make estimates and
    assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated
    financial statements and accompanying footnotes. The most
    significant estimates used in our financial statements affect
    revenue and cost recognition for construction contracts, the
    allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill, self-insurance,
    warranty accruals, income taxes, postretirement benefit
    obligations and estimates related to acquisition valuations. The
    amounts recorded for insurance claims, warranties, legal, income
    taxes and other contingent liabilities require judgments
    regarding the amount of expenses that will ultimately be
    incurred. We base our estimates on historical experience and on
    various other assumptions, as well as the specific circumstances
    surrounding these contingent liabilities, in evaluating the
    amount of liability that should be recorded. Estimates may
    change as new events occur, additional information becomes
    available or operating environments change. Actual results may
    differ from our estimates.

    Accounts receivable are stated net of allowances for doubtful
    accounts. We maintain and continually assess the adequacy of the
    allowance for doubtful accounts representing our estimate for
    losses resulting from the inability of our customers to pay
    amounts due to us. This estimated allowance is based on
    historical experience of uncollected accounts, the level of past
    due accounts, the overall level of outstanding accounts
    receivable, information about specific customers with respect to
    their inability to make payments and expectations of future
    conditions that could impact the collectibility of accounts
    receivable. Future changes in our customers&#146; operating
    performance and cash flows or in general economic conditions
    could have an impact on their ability to fully pay these
    amounts, which could have a material impact on our operating
    results. In most cases, receivables are not collateralized.
    However, we utilize letters of credit to secure payment on sales
    when possible. At September&#160;30, 2010 and 2009, accounts
    receivable included retention amounts of $9.0&#160;million and
    $8.1&#160;million, respectively. Retention amounts are in
    accordance with applicable provisions of engineering and
    construction contracts and become due upon completion of
    contractual requirements. Approximately $1.3&#160;million of the
    retained amount at September&#160;30, 2010, is expected to be
    collected subsequent to September&#160;30, 2011.

    compared to the asset&#146;s carrying amount to determine if an

    impairment loss. The first step of the test compares the fair
    value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including
    goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its

    We account for income taxes under the asset and liability
    method, based on the income tax laws and rates in the countries
    in which operations are conducted and income is earned. This
    approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and
    liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of
    temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax
    basis of assets and liabilities. Developing our provision for
    income taxes requires significant judgment and expertise in
    federal, international and state income tax laws, regulations
    and strategies, including the determination of deferred tax
    assets and liabilities and, if necessary, any valuation
    allowances that may be required for deferred tax assets. We
    record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets
    to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We
    believe that the deferred tax asset recorded as of
    September&#160;30, 2010, is realizable through future reversals
    of existing taxable temporary differences and future taxable
    income. If we were to subsequently determine that we would be
    able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of
    our net recorded amount, an adjustment to deferred tax assets
    would increase earnings for the period in which such
    determination was made. We will continue to assess the adequacy
    of the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. Our judgments
    and tax strategies are subject to audit by various taxing
    authorities.

    consequences of events that have been recognized in an
    entity&#146;s financial statements or tax returns. We recognize
    the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is
    more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on
    examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical
    merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the
    financial statements from such a position should be measured
    based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50%
    likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
    Accounting literature also provides guidance on derecognition of
    income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and
    deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for
    interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and income
    tax disclosures. Judgment is required in assessing the future
    tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our
    financial statements or tax returns. Variations in the actual
    outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact
    our financial statements.

    method of accounting, revenues are recognized as work is
    performed primarily based on the estimated completion to date
    calculated by multiplying the total contract price by percentage
    of performance to date, based on total costs or total labor
    dollars incurred to date to the total estimated costs or total
    labor dollars estimated at completion. The method used to
    determine the percentage of completion is typically the cost
    method, unless the labor method is a more accurate method of
    measuring the progress of the projects. Application of the
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">percentage-of-completion</FONT>
    method of accounting requires the use of estimates of costs to
    be incurred for the performance of the contract. Contract costs
    include all direct material, direct labor costs and those
    indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect
    labor, supplies, tools, repairs and all costs associated with
    operation of equipment. The cost estimation process is based
    upon the professional knowledge and experience of our engineers,
    project managers and financial professionals. Factors that are
    considered in estimating the work to be completed and ultimate
    contract recovery include the availability and productivity of
    labor, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed,
    the effect of change orders, the availability of materials, the
    effect of any delays in our project performance and the
    recoverability of any claims. Changes in job performance, job
    conditions, estimated profitability and final contract
    settlements, including our estimate of liquidated damages, if
    any, may result in revisions to costs and income, with their
    effects being recognized in the period in which the revisions
    are determined. Whenever revisions of estimated contract costs
    and contract values indicate that the contract costs will exceed
    estimated revenues, thus creating a loss, a provision for the
    total estimated loss is recorded in that period.

    value, if the acquisition-date fair value can be reasonably
    estimated. If the acquisition-date fair value of an asset or
    liability cannot be reasonably estimated, the asset or liability
    would be measured at the amount that would be recognized using
    the accounting guidance related to accounting for contingencies
    or the guidance for reasonably estimating losses. This
    accounting guidance became effective for us on October&#160;1,
    2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material
    impact on our consolidated financial statements.

    In January 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance to amend the
    disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring
    fair value measurements. This update requires new disclosures
    about significant transfers of assets and liabilities between
    Level&#160;1 and Level&#160;2 of the fair value hierarchy
    (including the reasons for these transfers) and the reasons for
    any transfers in or out of Level&#160;3. This update also
    requires a reconciliation of recurring Level&#160;3 measurements
    about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross
    basis. In addition to these new disclosure requirements, this
    update clarifies certain existing disclosure requirements. For
    example, this update clarifies that reporting entities are
    required to provide fair value measurement disclosures for each
    class of assets and liabilities, rather than each major category
    of assets or liabilities. This update also clarifies the
    requirement for entities to disclose information about both the
    valuation techniques and inputs used in estimating Level&#160;2
    and Level&#160;3 fair value measurements. This update will
    become effective for us with the interim and annual reporting
    period beginning after December&#160;15, 2009, our fiscal year
    2011, except for the requirement to provide the Level&#160;3
    activity of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a
    gross basis, which will become effective for us with the interim
    and annual reporting period beginning after December&#160;15,
    2010, our fiscal year 2012. We will not be required to provide
    the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for
    comparative purposes. Other than requiring additional
    disclosures, adoption of this update will not have a material
    impact on our consolidated financial statements.

    In April 2010, the FASB issued accounting guidance for the
    milestone method of revenue recognition. This guidance allows
    entities to make a policy election to use the milestone method
    of revenue recognition and provides guidance on defining a
    milestone and the criteria that should be met for applying the
    milestone method. The scope of this guidance is limited to
    transactions involving milestones relating to research and
    development deliverables.

    We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair
    value. Fair value is defined as an &#147;exit price&#148; which
    represents the amount that would be received to sell an asset or
    paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
    market participants as of the measurement date. As such, fair
    value is a market-based measurement that should be determined
    based on assumptions that market participants would use in
    valuing an asset or liability. The accounting guidance requires
    the use of valuation techniques to measure fair value that
    maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
    unobservable inputs. As a basis for considering such assumptions
    and inputs, a fair value hierarchy has been established which
    identifies and prioritizes three levels of inputs to be used in
    measuring fair value.

    On December&#160;15, 2009, we acquired the business and certain
    assets of PowerComm Inc. and its subsidiaries, Redhill Systems,
    Ltd., Nextron Corporation, PCG Technical Services Inc. and
    Concorde Metal Manufacturing Ltd (the entire business of which
    is referred to herein as Powell Canada). Powell Canada is
    headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and provides
    electrical and maintenance services in western Canada. Powell
    Canada is also a manufacturer of switchgear and related
    products, primarily serving the oil and gas industry in western
    Canada. This acquisition supports our strategy to expand our
    geographic presence into Canada, as well as increasing our
    service and maintenance capabilities.

    We paid $23.4&#160;million, plus expenses of approximately
    $2.4&#160;million, for the acquisition from our existing cash
    and cash equivalents and assumed $15.1&#160;million of existing
    bank debt. See the table below for assets acquired and
    liabilities assumed. In December 2009, approximately
    $2.4&#160;million of the $23.4&#160;million purchase price was
    placed into an escrow account related to the purchase of
    PowerComm&#146;s 50% interest in the operations of a joint

    the escrow was released.

    resulted in a refund to the Company of approximately $472,000,
    which was received subsequent to September&#160;30, 2010, and
    was recorded as a receivable at September&#160;30, 2010, in our

    Intangible assets recorded are approximately $9.0&#160;million
    and will be amortized over an estimated weighted average life of
    approximately 8.4&#160;years. Goodwill was recorded at
    approximately $7.2&#160;million and will not be amortized.
    Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the estimated
    fair value allocated to the net assets acquired and will be
    deductible for income tax purposes. The amount paid in excess of
    the fair value of the net assets acquired was to obtain an
    existing service and manufacturing presence in Canada and to
    strengthen our strategic position in the electrical power
    business, utilizing the combined capabilities of Powell Canada
    with our existing operations. See discussion of impairment in

    During the year ended September&#160;30, 2010, we acquired
    intangible assets and recorded goodwill in connection with our
    acquisition of Powell Canada and our acquisition of a 50%
    interest in the operations of a joint venture in Kazakhstan. See
    Note&#160;D for additional information regarding the
    acquisition. During fiscal year 2010, our impairment analyses
    for goodwill indicated that an impairment was required. A loss
    on impairment of approximately $7.5&#160;million was recorded in
    fiscal year 2010 related to the Powell Canada acquisition. The
    Company&#146;s strategic decision to exit the 50% owned joint
    venture in Kazakhstan and delays in the anticipated growth in
    capital investments in the Oil Sands Region of western Canada,
    relative to our expectations, resulted in the impairment charge.
    No impairment was identified as a result of performing our
    annual impairment test for fiscal years 2009 or 2008.

    In December 2007 and 2008, we amended our existing credit
    agreement (Amended Credit Agreement) with a major domestic bank
    and certain other financial institutions. These amendments to
    our credit facility were made to expand our US borrowing
    capacity to provide additional working capital support for the
    Company. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a
    1)&#160;$58.5&#160;million revolving credit facility (US
    Revolver); 2) &#163;4.0&#160;million (pound sterling)
    (approximately $6.3&#160;million) revolving credit facility (UK
    Revolver) and 3) &#163;6.0&#160;million (approximately
    $9.5&#160;million) single advance term loan (UK Term Loan). The
    UK Term Loan was repaid in September 2009 and may not be
    reborrowed. Expenses associated with the issuance of the
    original credit agreement are classified as deferred loan costs,
    totaled $576,000 and are being amortized as a non-cash charge to
    interest expense. Obligations are collateralized by the stock of
    certain of our subsidiaries.

    The interest rate for amounts outstanding under the Amended
    Credit Agreement for the US Revolver is a floating rate based
    upon the higher of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, or the
    bank&#146;s prime rate. Once the applicable rate is determined,
    a margin ranging from negative 0.5% to 0.5%, as determined by
    our consolidated leverage ratio, is added to the applicable
    rate. The floating interest rate for amounts outstanding under
    the Amended Credit Agreement for the UK Revolver is a floating
    rate based upon the LIBOR plus a margin which can range from
    1.25% to 2.25%, as determined by our consolidated leverage ratio
    as defined within the Amended Credit Agreement.

    outstanding letters of credit at September&#160;30, 2010. There
    were no letters of credit outstanding under the UK Revolver.

    the Illinois Development Finance Authority and were used for the
    completion of our Northlake, Illinois, facility. Pursuant to the
    Bond issuance, a reimbursement agreement between us and a major
    domestic bank required an issuance by the bank of an irrevocable
    direct-pay letter of credit (Bond LC)&#160;to the Bonds&#146;
    trustee to guarantee payment of the Bonds&#146; principal and

    agreements, as well as various covenants, for which we are in
    compliance at September&#160;30, 2010. While the Bonds mature in
    2021, the reimbursement agreement requires annual redemptions of
    $400,000 that commenced on October&#160;25, 2002. A sinking fund
    is used for the redemption of the Bonds. At September&#160;30,

    Our provision for income taxes reflects an effective tax rate on
    earnings before income taxes of 44% in fiscal year 2010 compared
    to 34% and 35% in fiscal years 2009 and 2008, respectively. The
    increase in the effective tax rate resulted from a valuation

    We have not recorded deferred income taxes on approximately
    $20.0&#160;million of undistributed earnings of our foreign
    subsidiaries because of management&#146;s intent to indefinitely
    reinvest such earnings. Upon distribution of these earnings in
    the form of dividends or otherwise, we may be subject to
    U.S.&#160;income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. It is not
    practical, however, to estimate the amount of taxes that may be
    payable on the eventual remittance of these earnings.

    In the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, we adopted accounting
    guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. Upon
    adoption of the guidance, we recorded a $0.3&#160;million
    increase in our tax reserves, an offsetting decrease of
    $0.2&#160;million to retained earnings for uncertain tax
    positions and an increase in deferred income tax assets of
    $0.1&#160;million. As of the adoption date, we had total tax
    reserves of approximately $1.2&#160;million. This reserve
    includes an estimate of potential interest and penalties on
    estimated liabilities for uncertain tax positions, which were
    recorded as components of income tax expense, in the amount of

    We operate in various countries and have operations in the
    United Kingdom and Canada. These international operations expose
    us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate
    fluctuations. We have entered into certain forward contracts to
    hedge the risk of certain foreign currency rate fluctuations. To
    the extent we choose to manage volatility associated with the
    net exposures, we enter into various financial transactions
    which we account for using the applicable accounting guidance
    for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Our objective
    is to hedge the variability in forecasted cash flow due to the
    foreign currency risk associated with certain long-term sales.
    As of September&#160;30, 2010, we held only derivatives that

    The purpose of our foreign currency hedging activities is to
    protect us from the risk that the eventual cash flows resulting
    from transactions that are denominated in currencies other than
    the U.S.&#160;Dollar will be adversely affected by changes in
    exchange rates. We are currently hedging our exposure to the

    All changes in the fair value of outstanding cash flow hedge
    derivatives, except the ineffective portion, are recorded in
    accumulated other comprehensive income, until net income is
    affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged
    transaction, or until it is probable that the forecasted
    transaction will not occur. In most cases, amounts recorded in
    accumulated other comprehensive income will be released to net
    income some time after the maturity of the related derivative.
    The Consolidated Statements of Operations&#146; classification
    of effective hedge results is the same as that of the underlying
    exposure. Results of hedges of revenue and product costs are
    recorded in revenue and costs of sales, respectively, when the
    underlying hedged transaction affects net income. Results of
    hedges of selling and administrative expense are recorded
    together with those costs when the related expense is recorded.
    In addition, any ineffective portion of the changes in the fair
    value of the derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are
    reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as the
    changes occur.

    result of underlying hedged transactions being recorded in net
    income. Actual amounts ultimately reclassified to net income are
    dependent on the exchange rates in effect when the derivative
    contracts that are currently outstanding mature. As of
    September&#160;30, 2010, the maximum term over which we are
    hedging exposure to the variability of cash flows for our

    unable to perform, our ability to qualify for hedging certain
    transactions would be compromised and the realizable value of

    Certain customers require us to post bank letter of credit
    guarantees or performance bonds issued by a surety. These
    guarantees and performance bonds assure that we will perform
    under the terms of our contract. In the event of default, the
    counterparty may demand payment from the bank under a letter of
    credit or performance by the surety under a performance bond. To
    date, there have been no significant expenses related to either
    for the periods reported. We were contingently liable for
    secured and unsecured letters of credit of $15.2&#160;million as
    of September&#160;30, 2010. We also had performance and
    maintenance bonds totaling approximately $185.3&#160;million

    events of default and carries cross-default provisions with our

    affiliates. Subject to certain conditions and restrictions as
    determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
    Directors and proportionate adjustments in the event of stock
    dividends, stock splits and similar corporate transactions, each
    eligible director will receive 2,000&#160;shares of restricted
    stock annually in the third fiscal quarter. In fiscal 2010,
    16,000&#160;shares of restricted stock were issued at a price of
    $28.95 per share. The maximum aggregate number of shares of
    stock that may be issued under the Restricted Stock Plan is
    150,000 and will consist of authorized but unissued or
    reacquired shares of stock, or any combination thereof. The
    restricted stock grants vest 50% per year over a two-year period

    Board, the Restricted Stock Plan will terminate at the close of
    business on December&#160;16, 2014, and no further grants shall
    be made under the plan after such date. Awards granted before
    such date shall continue to be subject to the terms and

    $38.36 per unit, respectively, to certain officers and key
    employees. The RSUs vest over a three-year period from their
    date of issuance. The fair value of the RSUs was based on the
    closing price of our common stock as reported on the NASDAQ
    Global Market (NASDAQ) on the grant dates. The actual amount of
    the RSUs earned will be based on the cumulative earnings per
    share as reported relative to established goals for the

    granted, and ranges from 0% to 150% of the target RSUs granted.
    At September&#160;30, 2010, there were approximately 87,500 RSUs

    The 1992 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the 1992 Plan), permits
    us to grant to key employees non-qualified options and stock
    grants, subject to certain conditions and restrictions as
    determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
    Directors and proportionate adjustments in the event of stock
    dividends, stock splits and similar corporate transactions. The
    maximum number of shares that may be issued under the 1992 Plan
    is 2.7&#160;million shares. Stock options are granted at an
    exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common
    stock on the date of the grant. Generally, options granted have
    an expiration date of seven years from the grant date and vest
    in increments of 20% per year over a five-year period. Pursuant
    to the 1992 Plan, option holders who exercise their options and
    hold the underlying shares of common stock for five years, vest
    in a stock grant equal to 20% of the original option shares.
    While restricted until the expiration of five years, the stock
    grant is considered issued at the date of the stock option
    exercise and is included in earnings per share. There have been
    no stock options granted since July 2005. There were
    approximately 470,000&#160;shares available to be granted under
    this plan as of September&#160;30, 2010. During fiscal year
    2010, approximately 40,000&#160;shares of restricted stock were
    issued to option holders who met specified requirements under
    the 1992 Plan. There were no restricted stock grants under the
    1992 Plan during fiscal years 2009 and 2008.
