Forward-Looking Statements



This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Forward-looking statements relate to current
expectations, beliefs, and projections concerning matters that are not
historical facts. Words such as "project," "believe," "anticipate," "plan,"
"expect," "intend," "may," "should," "will," "would," and similar words and
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The
expectations, beliefs, and projections reflected in the forward-looking
statements may prove to be inaccurate, and actual results may differ materially
from those reflected in such forward-looking statements. Important factors that
could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expectations are
disclosed in this report, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2019 (including Part I, Item 1, "Business," Part I, Item 1A,
"Risk Factors" and Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations"), and other documents filed by us
from time to time with the SEC. Such factors, of course, do not include all
factors that might affect our business and financial condition. Although we
believe that the assumptions upon which our forward-looking statements are based
are reasonable, such assumptions could prove to be inaccurate and actual results
could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the
forward-looking statements. For example, we could be exposed to a variety of
negative consequences as a result of delays related to the award of domestic and
international contracts; failure to secure the renewal of key customer
contracts; delays in customer programs; delays in revenue recognition related to
the timing of customer acceptance; unanticipated impacts of sequestration and
other U.S. Government budget control provisions; changes in domestic and foreign

contract and regulatory compliance matters, and actions, which if brought, could
result in judgments, settlements, fines, injunctions, debarment or penalties,
and other risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those detailed
herein and from time to time in our other SEC filings, which could have a
material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of
operations. All forward-looking statements contained in this report are
qualified in their entirety by this statement. Moreover, we operate in a very
competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to
time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we
assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any
factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially
from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of
these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and trends
discussed in this report may not occur, and actual results could differ
materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the
forward-looking statements. Investors should not place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We undertake no
obligation other than as may be required under securities laws to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new

  Table of Contents

Healthcare Division. Through our Healthcare division, we design, manufacture,
market and service patient monitoring and diagnostic cardiology systems
internationally for sale primarily to hospitals and medical centers. Our
products monitor patients in critical, emergency and perioperative care areas of
the hospital and provide information, through wired and wireless networks, to
physicians and nurses who may be at the patient's bedside, in another area of
the hospital or even outside the hospital. Revenues from our Healthcare division
accounted for 16% and 14% of our total consolidated revenues for the six months
ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, respectively.



Optoelectronics and Manufacturing Division. Through our Optoelectronics and
Manufacturing division, we design, manufacture and market optoelectronic devices
and flex circuits and provide electronics manufacturing services internationally
for use in a broad range of applications, including aerospace and defense
electronics, security and inspection systems, medical imaging and diagnostics,
telecommunications, office automation, computer peripherals, industrial
automation, automotive diagnostic systems, and consumer products. We also
provide our optoelectronic devices and electronics manufacturing services to OEM
customers, and our own Security and Healthcare divisions. Revenues from external
customers in our Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division accounted for 21%
and 20% of our total consolidated revenues for the six months ended December 31,
2018 and 2019, respectively.



Trends and Uncertainties


The following is a discussion of certain trends and uncertainties that we believe have and may continue to influence our results of operations.


Global Economic Considerations. Global macroeconomic factors, coupled with the
U.S. political climate, have created uncertainty and impacted demand for certain
of our products and services primarily in our Security and Healthcare divisions.
The current status and potential outcomes of Brexit negotiations has contributed
to global economic uncertainty and could have an adverse impact on our UK
business, including our orders and sales operations and personnel in the UK. We
do not know how long this uncertainty will continue. Therefore, we expect that
there may be a period of delayed or deferred purchasing by our customers. These
factors could have a material negative effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition. Our international operations provide a
significant portion of our total revenue and expenses. Many of these revenues
and expenses are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and, as a
result, may be significantly affected by changes in foreign exchange rates.



Global Trade. The current domestic and international political environment,
including existing and potential changes to U.S. and foreign policies related to
global trade and tariffs, have resulted in uncertainty surrounding the future
state of the global economy. Further, the U.S. government has announced that
sanctions would be imposed against certain businesses and individuals in select
countries. Additional changes may require us to modify our current business
practices and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition in any particular reporting period.

Healthcare Considerations. Our results of operations were adversely impacted in
prior periods by difficulties associated with product launches in our Healthcare
division. These issues may continue to adversely impact our results of
operations for additional periods. Additionally, there have been numerous
efforts advanced by the Trump administration and Congress to repeal and replace
or modify the Affordable Care Act, which has created uncertainty in the
healthcare industry that has adversely impacted, and may continue to adversely
impact, our results of operations.



European Union Threat Detection Standards. The EU has implemented regulations
for all airports within the EU to have hold baggage screening systems that are
compliant with the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) Standard 3 by
September 2020. However, this deadline could potentially be delayed. Our
Security division's real time tomography (RTT) product has passed the ECAC
explosive detection system Standard 3 threat detection requirement.



Government Policies. Our net income could be affected by changes in U.S. or
foreign government tax policies, such as the Tax Act, the implications and
uncertainties of which are described elsewhere in this report. We attempt to
manage our currency exposure in certain countries. The LIBOR index is expected
to be discontinued by the end of calendar year 2021. Under our credit facility,
if the LIBOR index is discontinued, the terms of our revolving credit facility
allow for a

                                       29

replacement rate to be determined in accordance with the Agreement. Changes in government policies in these areas might impact our financial condition and results of operations.


Mexico SAT Contract. Our contract with the Mexican government to provide a
turnkey security screening solution at various locations throughout the country
scheduled to expire in January 2020 was extended until May 13, 2020. While we
are actively in discussions with the Mexican government for a potentially
broader program, we cannot provide any assurance that this program will be
continued and, if the program is continued, upon what terms. If the program is
discontinued or continued upon modified terms, our results of operations could
be materially affected.


Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2018 (Q2 2019) Compared to the Three Months Ended December 31, 2019 (Q2 2020) (amounts in millions)





Net Revenues



The table below and the discussion that follows are based upon the way in which
we analyze our business. See Note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial
statements for additional information about our business segments.

Revenues for the Security division during the three months ended December 31,
2019 increased on a year-over-year basis as a result of increased revenue from
cargo and vehicle inspection systems, checkpoint equipment and overall service
revenue for the division, partially offset by decreases in sales of explosive
detection systems and explosive trace detection products.



Revenues for the Healthcare division during the three months ended December 31, 2019 decreased year-over-year due to lower sales of patient monitoring systems.

Revenues for the Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division during the three months ended December 31, 2019 decreased as a result of lower sales by our contract manufacturing business.

Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues during the three months ended
December 31, 2019 was comparable to the prior year An increase in the gross
margin within the Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division, due primarily to
operational efficiencies and product mix, was offset by lower gross margin in
the Healthcare division as a result of lower net revenues leading to less
manufacturing utilization.

  Table of Contents

Selling, general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expenses consist primarily of compensation paid to sales, marketing and
administrative personnel, professional service fees and marketing expenses. SG&A
expense for the three months ended December 31, 2019 was lower than the prior
comparable period primarily due to reduced compensation costs.



Research and development. Research and development (R&D) expenses include
research related to new product development and product enhancements. The
increase in R&D spending during the three months ended December 31, 2019 from
the same prior-year period reflected increased spending in our Security division
primarily to support new product development.



Restructuring and other charges (benefit). Restructuring and other charges
generally consist of charges related to reductions in our workforce, facility
consolidation, costs related to acquisition activity, legal charges and other
non-recurring charges. The net benefit in the second fiscal quarter of 2019 was
primarily due to a recovery of certain legal costs through insurance
reimbursement which was partially offset by employee termination and business
exit costs for restructuring activities in our Healthcare division. The net
benefit in the second fiscal quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a further
recovery of certain legal costs through insurance reimbursement, partially
offset by additional legal fees and severance costs for headcount reductions.



Other Income and Expenses



Interest and other expense, net. For the three months ended December 31, 2019,
interest and other expense, net was $4.8 million as compared to $5.6 million in
the comparable prior-year period. This decrease was driven primarily by lower
levels of borrowing under our revolving credit facility as well as lower average
interest rates during the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the
same period in the prior year. Interest expense in the current-year period
included $2.2 million of non-cash interest expense primarily related to the
Notes (see Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further
discussion) compared to $2.0 million during the comparable prior-year period.



Income taxes. The effective tax rate for a particular period varies depending on
a number of factors, including (i) the mix of income earned in various tax
jurisdictions, each of which applies a unique range of income tax rates and
income tax credits, (ii) changes in previously established valuation allowances
for deferred tax assets (changes are based upon our current analysis of the
likelihood that these deferred tax assets will be realized), (iii) the level of
non-deductible expenses, (iv) certain tax elections and (v) tax holidays granted
to certain of our international subsidiaries. For the three months ended
December 31, 2019, we recognized a provision for income taxes of $7.1 million
compared to $7.0 million for the comparable prior-year period. The effective tax
rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2019 was 26.8% and 25.3%,
respectively. During the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, we
recognized discrete tax benefits primarily for equity-based compensation under
ASU 2016-09 of $0.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Excluding the net
impact of these discrete tax benefits, our effective tax rate for the three
months ended December 31, 2018 and 2019 was 28.3% and 27.7%, respectively.

  Table of Contents

Revenues for the Security division during the six months ended December 31, 2019
increased on a year-over-year basis as a result of increased product revenue
from cargo and vehicle inspection systems, explosive detection systems and
checkpoint equipment, partially offset by decreases in sales of explosive trace
detection products. Service revenue for the Security division increased slightly
compared to the prior comparable period.



Revenues for the Healthcare division during the six months ended December 31, 2019 decreased year-over-year due to lower sales of patient monitoring systems.





Revenues for the Optoelectronics and Manufacturing division during the six
months ended December 31, 2019 were slightly higher than the prior comparable
period due primarily to higher sales from our contract manufacturing business.

Gross profit    $ 206.3            36.2 %  $ 210.0            35.2 %




Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues during the six months ended
December 31, 2019 decreased on a year-over-year basis as a result of a reduction
in gross margin in the Security division, due largely to an unfavorable mix of
revenues driven by higher equipment sales growth relative to service revenue
growth. Service revenues in the Security division generally carry higher gross
margins than equipment sales. The decrease in net revenues from the Healthcare
division also had a negative impact on overall gross profit as a percentage of
net revenues since sales from our Healthcare division generally have higher
gross margins than our other divisions. These impacts on gross margin were
partially offset by an increase in the gross margin within the Optoelectronics
and Manufacturing division due to favorable sales mix and operational
efficiencies.

Selling, general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expenses consist primarily of compensation paid to sales, marketing and
administrative personnel, professional service fees and marketing expenses. SG&A
expense for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was lower than the prior
comparable period due in large part to lower amortization expense for
acquisition related intangible assets and miscellaneous smaller items.



Research and development. Research and development (R&D) expenses include
research related to new product development and product enhancements. The
increase in R&D spending during the six months ended December 31, 2019 from the
same prior-year period reflected increased spending in our Security division
primarily to support new product development.



Restructuring and other charges (benefit). In the first half of fiscal 2019, we
incurred restructuring and other charges of $3.6 million related to employee
termination and business exit costs and $0.3 million in acquisition costs, which
were partially offset by a net $1.0 million recovery of certain legal costs as a
result of insurance reimbursements. The net benefit in the first half of fiscal
year 2020 was primarily due to a further net recovery of $3.5 million for
certain legal costs through insurance reimbursements, partially offset by $0.5
million in severance costs for headcount reductions.

Other Income and Expenses



Interest and other expense, net. For the six months ended December 31, 2019,
interest and other expense, net was $9.6 million as compared to $11.0 million in
the comparable prior-year period. This decrease was driven primarily by lower
levels of borrowing under our revolving credit facility as well as a lower
average interest rate during the six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to
the same period in the prior year. Interest expense in the current-year period
included $4.4 million of non-cash interest expense largely related to the Notes
(see Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further
discussion) compared to $3.9 million during the comparable prior-year period.



Income taxes. For the six months ended December 31, 2019, we recognized a
provision for income taxes of $6.5 million compared to $8.5 million for the
comparable prior-year period. The effective tax rate for the six months ended
December 31, 2018 and 2019 was 23.0% and 13.5%, respectively. During the six
months ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, we recognized discrete tax benefits
primarily for equity-based compensation under ASU 2016-09 of $1.9 million and
$6.9 million, respectively. Excluding the net impact of these discrete tax
benefits, our effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and
2019 was 28.2% and 27.8%, respectively.



Liquidity and Capital Resources


Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, cash
generated from operations and our credit facility. Cash and cash equivalents
totaled $95.1 million as of December 31, 2019, a decrease of $1.3 million, or
1.3%, from $96.3 million as of June 30, 2019. During the six months ended
December 31, 2019, we generated $59.6 million of cash flow from operations. We
currently anticipate that our available funds, cash flow from operations and
credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our operational cash needs for the
next 12 months and the foreseeable future.



Our current revolving credit facility allows us to borrow up to $535 million and
matures in April 2024. As of December 31, 2019, there was $91.0 million
outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $53.7 million outstanding
under the letters-of-credit sub-facility.



Cash Provided by Operating Activities. Cash flows from operating activities can
fluctuate significantly from period to period, as net income, adjusted for
non-cash items, and working capital fluctuations impact cash flows. During the
six months ended December 31, 2019, we generated $59.6 million of cash from
operations compared to $40.8 million in the same prior-year period. The increase
in operating cash flow was driven by an improvement in working capital as well
as higher net income.



Cash Used in Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was
$15.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $31.5
million used for the six months ended December 31, 2018. During the six months
ended December 31, 2019, we used cash of $11.6 million for capital expenditures
and $3.9 million for the acquisition of intangible and other assets. During the
six months ended December 31, 2018, we used cash of $17.5 million for the
acquisition of an optoelectronics solutions business and $0.8 million for the
acquisition of a Security services business and we used cash of $12.6 million
for capital expenditures.



Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing
activities was $45.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019 compared
to net cash provided by financing activities of $3.1 million for the six months
ended December 31, 2018. During the six months ended December 31, 2019, our
primary uses in financing were $53.7 million for repurchases of our common
shares and tax payments related to net share settlements of equity awards,
partially offset by $3.0 million of net borrowings on our revolving credit
facility and $6.1 million of proceeds from exercise of stock options and the
employee stock purchase plan. During the six months ended December 31, 2018, our
primary source of financing was $36.0 million borrowed under our revolving
credit facility. This source of funds was partially offset by $34.0 million used
for share repurchases and taxes paid related to the net share settlement of

equity awards.

Borrowings


See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a detailed discussion regarding our revolving credit facility and our Notes.

Cash Held by Foreign Subsidiaries





Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $95.1 million at December 31, 2019. Of
this amount, approximately 82% was held by our foreign subsidiaries and subject
to repatriation tax considerations. These foreign funds were held primarily by
our subsidiaries in Singapore, the United Kingdom, Malaysia and Canada and to a
lesser extent in Mexico, Germany, India, and Albania among others. We intend to
permanently reinvest certain earnings from foreign operations, and we currently
do not anticipate that we will need this cash in foreign countries to fund our
U.S. operations. In the event we repatriate cash from certain foreign operations
and taxes have not previously been withheld on the related earnings, we would
provide for withholding taxes at the time we change our intention with regard to
the reinvestment of those earnings.

In March 2018, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program

of up to one million shares. This program does not have an expiration date. (1) Upon repurchase, the shares are restored to the status of authorized but

unissued, and we record them as a reduction in the number of shares of common


    stock issued and outstanding in the consolidated financial statements.
