disposition occurs and any gain or loss is recognized. Depreciation is computed
using the straight-line method. Useful lives for equipment, machinery and
leasehold improvements range from three to seven years; for furniture and
fixtures from five to 10 years; and for buildings 20 years.</font></div>

Arrangements. This guidance updates the existing multiple-element revenue
arrangements guidance currently included in FASB ASC 605-25, Revenue
Recognition&#8211;Multiple&#8211;Element Arrangements. The revised guidance provides for two
significant changes to the existing multiple element revenue arrangements
guidance. The first change relates to the determination of when the individual
deliverables included in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as
separate units of accounting. The second change modifies the manner in which the
transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified
deliverables. This guidance also significantly expands the disclosures required
for multiple-element revenue arrangements. The revised multiple-element revenue
arrangements guidance will be effective for the fiscal year ending September 30,
2011, however, early adoption is permitted, provided that the revised guidance
is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company
has not yet determined the impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will
have on its consolidated financial statements. </font></div>

could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in
these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: whether we will
be able to complete acquisitions and integrate such businesses successfully and
achieve anticipated synergies; variability of our revenues and financial
performance; risks associated with product development and technological
changes; the acceptance of our products in the marketplace by existing and
potential future customers; disruption of operations or increases in expenses
caused by civil or political unrest or other catastrophic events; general
economic conditions and conditions in the semiconductor and solar industries in

quarter ended December 31, 2009 decreased by $2.4 million, or 14%, from the
quarter ended December 31, 2008. Revenue in the solar and semiconductor
equipment segment decreased as a result of lower shipment volumes to both the
solar and the semiconductor industries, partially offset by an increase in
recognition of previously-deferred solar revenue. The decrease in shipments was
caused primarily by the global economic downturn and credit crisis. Within the
solar and semiconductor equipment segment, net revenue from the solar market was
$11.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009, a $0.8 million or 7%
increase from the three months ended December 31, 2008. The decrease of $0.3
million in net revenue from the Polishing Supplies Segment is also due to the
economic downturn as described above.</font></div>

Our backlog as of December 31, 2009 includes approximately $69.7 million of
orders from our solar industry customers compared to $35.8 million at December
31, 2008. New orders booked in our most recent quarter ended December 31, 2009
increased more than 500% to $59.4 million compared to $9.3 million in the
quarter ended December 31, 2008. The increase in new orders and backlog resulted
primarily from solar cell manufacturers accelerating their capacity expansion
plans. New orders include the recent large multi-system solar order from a
single customer in Asia. As a result of the large multi-system order, 54 % of
our backlog at December 31, 2009 is from this single customer. </font></div>

in our backlog are generally credit approved customer purchase orders expected
to ship within the next 12 months. Because our orders are typically subject to
cancellation or delay by the customer, our backlog at any particular point in
time is not necessarily representative of actual sales for succeeding periods,
nor is backlog any assurance that we will realize profit from completing these
orders. Our backlog also includes revenue deferred pursuant to our revenue
recognition policy, derived from orders that have already been shipped, but
which have not met the criteria for revenue recognition. Our backlog as of
December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, include $0.1 million and $1.1 million
of open orders or deferred revenue for which we anticipate no gross profit.

          <div align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">For the three months
ended December 31, 2009, gross profit in the solar and semiconductor equipment
segment decreased 28% versus the three months ended December 31, 2008. The
decrease was driven primarily by lower volumes which resulted in less efficient
capacity utilization. The decrease in gross profit on shipments was partially
offset by recognition of previously-deferred profit. We recognized $0.2 million
of previously-deferred profit in the quarter ended December 31, 2009, net of
deferrals, compared to a net deferral of $0.8 million of profit in the quarter
ended December 31, 2008. To support our current growth in the solar and
semiconductor equipment segment, we are making substantial investments in labor
and facilities. These investments are expected to have a short-term negative
impact on gross profit in the second fiscal quarter of 2010. Gross margins in
the polishing supplies segment were positively impacted by product mix as
volumes of higher-margin carriers and templates increased while sales of
polishing machines, which generally carry a lower gross margin, decreased.

with multiple deliverables to determine if separate units of accounting are
present in the arrangements. Where separate units of accounting exist, revenue
is allocated to delivered items equal to the total sales price less the greater
of (1) the relative fair value of the undelivered items, and (2) all contingent
portions of the sales arrangement. </font></font></div>
    <div align="justify"><font size="2">&#160;</font></div>
    <div align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">We recognize revenue
when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the product has been
delivered and title has transferred, or services have been rendered; the
seller&#8217;s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectability is
reasonably assured. For us, this policy generally results in revenue recognition
at the following points: </font></div>
    <div>&#160;</div>
    <div style="MARGIN-LEFT: 18px" align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">(1) For the solar and semiconductor equipment segment, transactions where
legal title passes to the customer upon shipment, we recognize revenue upon
shipment for those products where the customer&#8217;s defined specifications have
been met with at least two similarly configured systems and processes for a
comparably situated customer. However, a portion of the revenue associated with
certain installation-related tasks, equal to the greater of the relative fair
value of those tasks or the portion of the contract price contingent upon their
completion, generally 10%-20% of the system&#8217;s selling price (the &#8220;holdback&#8221;),
and directly related costs, if any, are deferred and recognized into income when
the tasks are completed. Since we defer only those costs directly related to
installation or other unit of accounting not yet delivered and the deferred
portion of the contract price is often considerably greater than the cost of
those items, our policy at times will result in deferral of profit that is
disproportionate in relation to the deferred revenue. When this is the case, the
gross margin recognized in one period will be lower and the gross margin
recognized in a subsequent period will improve. </font></div>
    <div>&#160;</div>
    <div style="MARGIN-LEFT: 18px" align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">(2) For products where the customer&#8217;s defined specifications have not
been met with at least two similarly configured systems and processes, the
revenue and directly related costs are deferred at the time of shipment and
later recognized at the time of customer acceptance or when this criterion has
been met. We have, on occasion, experienced longer than expected delays in
receiving cash from certain customers pending final installation or system
acceptance. If some of our customers refuse to pay the final payment, or
otherwise delay final acceptance or installation, the deferred revenue would not
be recognized, adversely affecting our future operating results. </font></div>
    <div>&#160;</div>
    <div style="MARGIN-LEFT: 18px" align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">(3) Equipment sold by the polishing supplies segment generally does not
include process guarantees, acceptance criteria or holdbacks; therefore, the
related revenue is generally recorded upon transfer of title which is generally
at time of shipment.</font></div>
    <div>&#160;</div>
    <div style="MARGIN-LEFT: 18px" align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">(4) For all segments, sales of spare parts and</font><font style="FONT-FAMILY: serif"> </font><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">consumables are recognized upon shipment, as there are no post shipment
obligations other than standard warranties.</font></div>
    <div>&#160;</div>
    <div style="MARGIN-LEFT: 18px" align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">(5) Service revenue is recognized upon performance of the services
requested by the customer. Revenue related to service contracts is recognized
ratably over the period of the contract or in accordance with the terms of the
contract, which generally coincides with the performance of the services
requested by the customer. </font></div>

circumstances have occurred that indicate the estimated useful lives of
long-lived assets or intangible assets may warrant revision or that the
remaining balance may not be recoverable. Goodwill and indefinite-lived
intangibles are also tested for impairment at least annually. When factors
indicate that an asset should be evaluated for possible impairment, we use an
estimate of the related undiscounted net cash flows generated by the asset over
the remaining estimated life of the asset in measuring whether the asset is
recoverable. We make judgments and estimates used in establishing the carrying
value of long-lived or intangible assets. Those judgments and estimates could be
modified if adverse changes occurred in the future resulting in an inability to
recover the carrying value of these assets. Below is a more detailed explanation
of the procedures we perform.</font></div>

    <div align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">We perform a two-step
impairment test. In the first step, we estimate the fair value of the reporting
unit and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit. Most of our
reporting units are operating segments that are one level below the reportable
segment into which they are aggregated. The one exception is P.R. Hoffman
Machine Products, Inc. which is a reportable segment. When the carrying value
exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the second step is performed to
measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. In the second step, the
amount of the impairment loss is the excess of the carrying amount of the
goodwill and other intangibles not subject to amortization over their implied
fair value.</font></div>

      being tested for impairment. One benefit of this approach is it is the
      closest to quoted market prices that are readily available. However, we
      generally give less weight to this method, because the market value of the
      minority interest of public companies may not be that relevant to the fair
      value of our wholly-owned reporting units, which are not public companies.
      Also, MVIC to revenue for the LTM uses a historical value in the
      denominator, while the market values tend to be forward looking; and MVIC
      of revenue for the NTM involves the use of projections for both the

      <div align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">We generally give the
greatest weight, often 75% or more, to the discounted cash flow method, due to
difficulty in identifying a sufficient number of companies that are truly
comparable to a given reporting unit. This is because two of our three reporting
units are relatively small businesses serving niche markets.</font></div>
      <div>&#160;</div>
      <div align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">The material
estimates and assumptions used in the discounted cash flows method of
determining fair value include (i) the appropriate discount rate, given the
risk-free rate of return and various risk premiums, (ii) projected revenues,
(iii) projected material cost as a percentage of revenue, and (iv) the rate of
increase in payroll and other expense. Quantitatively, the discount rate is the
assumption that has the most pervasive effect on the discounted cash flows. We
determine the discount rate used based on input from a valuation firm, which
applies various approaches taking into account the particular circumstances of
the reporting unit in arriving at a recommendation. For annual valuations, we
test the sensitivity of the assumptions used in our discounted cash flow
projection with the aid of a valuation firm, which utilizes a Monte Carlo
simulation model, wherein various probabilities are assigned to the key
assumptions.</font></div>

      <div align="justify"><font size="2" style="FONT-FAMILY: serif">In fiscal year 2009,
we performed a mid-year test of the impairment of the goodwill and other
intangibles due to changing circumstances regarding the Bruce Technologies
reporting unit. This test required us to use judgments and estimates that could
be materially different than actual results. Bruce Technologies continued to
incur losses after a restructuring and cost reductions put into place during the
prior fiscal year and expectations that semiconductor customers served by this
reporting unit would not in the future achieve the kinds of growth rates they
had in the past due to increased maturity of that industry. We used the same
discount rate as used in the prior annual impairment test of this reporting
unit, but the other assumptions became more conservative due to the changing
circumstances. It was primarily the lowered projections of future revenue that
resulted in a lower estimate of fair value and the impairment loss. The payroll
and certain expense assumptions, however, were lowered to take into account a
second restructuring of the reporting unit, which involved a significant
reduction in the number of employees. The material cost assumption was also
lowered to take into account a change in product mix.</font></div>
