in the previous quarter and $46.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002. In recent periods, our sales growth was adversely impacted by uncertainty created by the litigation that was settled during the second quarter of fiscal 2003.

fiscal 2002. The increase reflects our preparations for meeting the increasing demand from both our new and existing customers in the coming quarter and we fully expect to sell through that inventory in future quarters. </FONT></P><P

Please note that the decline in accounts payable represents early payment to some vendors at discounts greater than our cost of capital. The legal settlement also significantly reduced the liabilities on our balance sheet. Our long-term liabilities
now total approximately $11.8 million, down from $26.8 million at the end of fiscal 2002. Our current ratio is now around a solid 2 to 1. Our capital spending for the third quarter was approximately $350,000. We continue to expect capital spending
to be about $2 million for the full fiscal year 2003. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">In
summary, we are pleased with our improved operating performance and strong balance sheet in the third quarter &#150; especially given the constraints to growing our business in recent quarters. For Q4 of this fiscal year, we expect sales to grow
sequentially about 10%. We plan to maintain our tight control on expenses and have gross margins over 10%. As a result, we expect our bottomline to grow in Q4. We believe that Key Tronic is well positioned to expand our business and capitalize on
the EMS market opportunities before us. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">That&#146;s it for me.

providing a high level of service to our customers. With the litigation completely behind us now, we are once again winning new business and executing our growth strategy. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

service for projects that may be initially too small for larger contract manufacturers. Our skill set includes circuit board assembly, engineering, flex circuit design and manufacturing, precision plastic molding, mechanical assembly and high-value
manufacturing within our established facilities in the US, Mexico and China, which are proving to be a strong competitive advantage. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">During the third quarter, we established several new, multi-million-dollar customer relationships involving household products and consumer electronics
and plastics. To further expand our sales effort, we recently employed a new lead generation service to complement our other sales channels. As a result, we are quoting new business in a wide range of different industries, including opportunities in
consumer electronics and plastics, specialty printers, transaction devices, commercial electronic equipment and more. Over time, we expect to continue to diversify our EMS customer base to be less dependent on any single project or customer in the
future. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">Moving into the fourth quarter, we have begun to see
increasing production levels for a number of our new and existing customers. Those newer projects that have come on line involve household and consumer products. At the same time, some of our long-time customers are ramping up production on new
programs involving specialty printers, household and consumer products and printed circuit boards. And many of our recent wins are expected to be released to production in the upcoming quarters. </FONT></P><P

able streamline our operations, weather the storm and remain profitable without hurting our long-term competitiveness. With the litigation firmly behind us, we have revitalized our sales effort and won new customers. As we move into the fourth
quarter, we anticipate growing sales and earnings. We are very excited about the continued trend toward outsourced manufacturing worldwide and our long-term prospects. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
