NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Todd Shipyards Corporation ("we", "us", "our") filed the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2009 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K. The Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis contained in that report should be read in connection with this Form 10-Q.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We have included all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation in the interim financial statements. Certain financial information that is required in the annual financial statements and prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") may not be required for interim financial reporting purposes and may have been condensed or omitted. Our results of operations for the nine months ended December 27, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Our interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto included in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Todd Shipyards Corporation and our wholly owned subsidiaries Todd Pacific Shipyards Corporation ("Todd Pacific"), Everett Shipyard, Inc. ("Everett"), and TSI Management, Inc. ("TSI"). We have eliminated all intercompany transactions. We have evaluated the applicability of reportable segments using criteria outlined in ASC 280. In our evaluation, we determined that Todd Pacific Shipyards Corporation and Everett Shipyard, Inc. have similar methods of operation, customer bases and utilize similar general ship repair and construction industry factors. We have determined that both companies meet the criteria for aggregation and are consolidated as one reporting segment.

Preparing our interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, which was effective for us beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. The Codification became the single authoritative source for GAAP. Accordingly, previous references to GAAP accounting standards are no longer used in our disclosures, including these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Codification does not affect our consolidated financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.

In February 2008, FASB issued new accounting guidance which defers the effective date of a previously issued accounting standard for the fair value measurement of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in an entity's financial statements on a recurring basis.  We adopted the new accounting guidance on March 30, 2009 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On March 30, 2009, we adopted the accounting standard relating to business combinations, which requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction at fair value as of the acquisition date. This adoption did not have an impact to our consolidated financial statements.

On March 30, 2009, we adopted the accounting standard that amends the requirements for disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for annual, as well as interim, reporting periods. This standard was effective prospectively for all interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. This adoption did not have an impact to our consolidated financial statements.

On March 30, 2009, we adopted the accounting standard regarding the general standards of accounting for, and disclosure of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. This standard was effective prospectively for all interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of our consolidated financial statements on February 4, 2010.

On March 30, 2009, we adopted the accounting standard designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for, and presenting impairment losses on, debt securities. This standard was effective prospectively for all interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. This adoption did not have an impact to our consolidated financial statements.

3. REVENUES

We utilize the percentage-of-completion method to recognize revenue, costs, and profit on construction and repair contracts. This method requires us to make certain estimates of the total costs to complete a project, estimates of project schedule and completion dates, estimates of the percentage at which the project is complete, estimates of award fees earned, estimates of annual overhead rates, and estimates of amounts of any probable unapproved claims and/or change orders. Experienced project management and accounting personnel assigned to these activities continuously evaluate and update these estimates, and management also reviews them on a periodic basis. When adjustments in contract value or estimated costs are determined, we generally reflect any changes from prior estimates in the current period. We generally enter into three types of contracts: cost-type contracts, time-and-materials contracts, and fixed price contracts.

The ship repair business consists of individual and short duration repair events, some of which the government exercises under its various multi-ship, multi-option contracts. The new construction business consists of individual and multiple vessel construction, typically of one to two years duration. Consequently, operating results for any period presented are not necessarily indicative of results expected in other periods.

When estimates of total costs to be incurred on a contract exceed estimates of total revenue to be earned, we record a provision for the contract loss in the period we determine the estimated loss. We recognize revenue arising from claims when we realize them. We recognize a potential loss on a claim when the claim is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. In evaluating these criteria, we consider the contractual/legal basis for the claim, the cause of the additional cost incurred, the reasonableness of the costs, and the objective evidence to support the claim.

4. RESERVES AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES

As discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2009, we face significant potential liabilities in connection with the alleged presence of hazardous waste materials at our Seattle shipyard, and at other additional sites used by us, for disposal of alleged hazardous waste. We are named as a defendant in civil actions by parties alleging damages from past exposure to toxic substances, mainly asbestos, at our facilities.

We continue to analyze environmental matters and associated liabilities for which we may be responsible. The eventual outcome of all environmental matters cannot be determined at this time; however, the analyses of the known matters have progressed sufficiently to warrant the establishment of reserve provisions in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Harbor Island Site

In fiscal year 2001, we entered into a 30-year agreement with an insurance company that provides broad-based insurance coverage for the remediation of our operable units at the Harbor Island Superfund Site ("Site").

The agreement provides coverage for the known liabilities in an amount not to exceed the policy limits. As of December 27, 2009 we have current recorded reserves of approximately $5.1 million and a corresponding insurance receivable of $4.8 million. Included in the reserves are sediment remediation costs for Harbor Island of $0.4 million that we expect to occur in the next 12 months. We reflect these costs as current liabilities in our balance sheet. Likewise, we reflect the insurance receivable of $0.4 million relating to these reserves as a current asset in our balance sheet.

Additionally, in 2001 we entered into a 15-year agreement for coverage of any new environmental conditions discovered at the Seattle shipyard property that would require environmental remediation.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003, we entered into a Consent Decree with the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") for the cleanup of the Shipyards Sediments Operable Unit ("SSOU"), which was subsequently approved by the Department of Justice.

Remediation of the SSOU began in the second quarter of fiscal year 2005. We finished the pier demolition and required dredging in its entirety during fiscal year 2006. The EPA formally accepted our work at the site during the second quarter of fiscal year 2008.

Environmental regulations limit the period of time during the year that dredging may occur. Given these limits, dredging in the SSOU required several years to accomplish. We completed our first year of dredging during fiscal year 2005 and the second and final year of dredging during fiscal year 2006. As part of the sediment remedial action on our property, a temporary sand cap was placed over the sediments that are beneath Piers 1, 3 and 2P, and the building berth adjacent to Pier 1. When those piers reach the end of their usable lives (estimated to occur within the next 15 years), we are obligated to demolish those piers and conduct final cleanup of the under-pier sediments. The estimated cost of these final sediment Superfund remedial actions on our property is included in the stated reserve.

Under the Federal Superfund law, a potentially responsible party ("PRP") may have liability for damages to natural resources in addition to liability for remediation. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, we received a claim for natural resource damages pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") on behalf of the Elliott Bay Natural Resource Trustees relating to the Site. We have included our best estimate of natural resource damage liability in the environmental remediation reserve. We believe that our estimated potential loss for this claim will be covered by our existing insurance, provided we do not exceed aggregate policy limits, which we do not anticipate.

Other Environmental Sites

The Port of Tacoma, Washington filed a civil action against us during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 in the United States District Court (Western District of Washington in Tacoma) for contribution under CERCLA and the Model Toxics Control Act ("MTCA"). We previously disclosed our involvement with the CERCLA and MTCA remediation efforts in the Hylebos Waterway of Commencement Bay in Tacoma, Washington and subsequent natural resources assessment by the statutorily named trustees ("Commencement Bay Trustees"). A former subsidiary of ours operated a shipbuilding operation on the Hylebos Waterway under contract to the United States Navy ("Navy") during World War I and World War II. The contract between our subsidiary and the Navy for the operation of the shipyard site included an indemnification clause flowing from the Navy to our subsidiary. We have tendered any potential liability to the Navy pursuant to this contract. The government to date has not accepted this tender nor has it agreed to indemnify us. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, we reached a contingent settlement agreement in this litigation with the Port of Tacoma. The agreement is subject to approval by the government, which is necessary to protect our potential right of indemnification. The agreement resulted in a $1.3 million charge against cost of revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2010.

The Commencement Bay Trustees filed a claim against the Navy for natural resources damages caused by the government. The Commencement Bay Trustees and the Navy have entered into a consent decree resolving the claim, releasing the Navy from further liability in connection with the site. We appeared at the consent decree hearing in United States District Court in Tacoma, Washington in October 2007 to protect our indemnification agreement with the Navy. The judge approved entry of the consent decree but also ruled that the consent decree would not operate to relieve the Navy from any contractual indemnification obligations it may owe us.

We entered into a Consent Decree with the EPA for the clean up of the Casmalia Resources Hazardous Waste Management Facility in Santa Barbara County, California under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. We included an estimate of the potential liability for this site in our environmental reserve.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, we received a settlement demand from the Chevron Environmental Management Company, a PRP at the EPC Eastside Disposal site outside of Bakersfield, California. We were first notified by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control of our PRP status at the site in 1995, and having asserted that any potential related liability was discharged in our 1987 Bankruptcy filing, have not been contacted by any agency since that time. We continue to believe that we have no liability at this site as a result of our 1987 bankruptcy filing and intend to continue to assert this defense. We have not established a reserve for this issue as we are unable to estimate the probable outcome.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, we received notification from the EPA that we, along with approximately 125 other companies and organizations, are a PRP for the costs incurred in connection with contamination at the Omega Chemical Corporation Superfund Site in Whittier, California. We are investigating the factual allegations and any potential liability. Due to the preliminary status of this claim we have not established a reserve for this issue.

During fiscal year 2005, we received notification that we, along with 55 other companies and organizations, are a PRP at the BKK Landfill Facility in West Covina, California. The site is the subject of an investigation and remedial order from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control. It is alleged that our San Pedro shipyard (closed in 1990) caused shipyard waste to be sent to the BKK facility during the 1970s and 1980s. We have not established a reserve for this issue as we are unable to estimate the probable outcome.

We received notification in November 2006 regarding the discovery of sub surface oil on the property we formerly owned in Galveston, Texas. We sold the property to the Port of Galveston in 1992 and there have been several intervening owners and operators at the site since 1992. We are investigating the factual allegations and any potential liability. We have not established a reserve for this issue as we are unable to estimate the probable outcome.

Asbestos-Related Claims

As reported in our Form 10-K for fiscal year 2009, we are named as a defendant in civil actions by parties alleging damages from past exposure to toxic substances, generally asbestos, at closed former facilities.

The cases generally include as defendants, in addition to us, other ship builders and repairers, ship owners, asbestos manufacturers, distributors and installers, and equipment manufacturers and arise from injuries or illnesses allegedly caused by exposure to asbestos or other toxic substances. We assess claims as they are filed and as the cases develop, analyzing them in two different categories based on severity of illness. Based on current fact patterns, we categorize certain diseases including mesothelioma, lung cancer and fully developed asbestosis as "malignant" claims. We categorize all others of a less medically serious nature as "non-malignant." We are currently defending approximately 10 "malignant" claims and approximately 561 "non-malignant" claims. We and our insurers are vigorously defending these actions.

As of December 27, 2009, we have recorded a bodily injury liability reserve of $4.9 million and a bodily injury insurance receivable of $3.7 million. This compares to a previously recorded bodily injury reserve and insurance receivable of $5.0 million and $3.8 million, respectively, at March 29, 2009. We classify these bodily injury liabilities and receivables within our balance sheet as environmental and other reserves, and insurance receivables, respectively.

Other Reserves

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2004, we recorded a reserve of $2.5 million related to the unanticipated bankruptcy of one of our previous insurance carriers. The remaining reserve balance as of December 27, 2009 was $1.2 million, which reflects our best estimate of the known liabilities associated with unpaid workers compensation claims arising from the two-year coverage period commencing October 1, 1998, and is subject to change as additional facts are uncovered. These claims have reverted to us due to the liquidation of the insurance carrier. Although we expect to recover at least a portion of these costs from the liquidation and other sources, we cannot currently estimate the amount and the timing of any such recovery and therefore have not included an estimate of amounts recoverable in the current financial results. We have cumulatively paid approximately $1.3 million and $1.0 million in claims through December 27, 2009 and March 29, 2009, respectively, which have been charged against the reserve.

During our third quarter of fiscal year 2009, we discovered an error in how we reported several funds held by one of our health insurance carriers. These funds were held in a premium stabilization fund account ("PSF Account") and an incurred but not reported claims reserve account ("IBNR Reserve"). Although we did not previously report these funds on our balance sheet, we determined that they were reportable assets and that we should include their value in our consolidated financial statements. We also determined that the annual amounts transferred in prior periods from the Todd Shipyards Corporation Retirement System defined benefit plan ("Plan") to fund health benefits for our retired employees did not consider the funds available in the PSF Account and the IBNR Reserve. We calculated the amount to transfer from the Plan based on the requirements provided by Section 420 of the Internal Revenue Code. We recorded an excise tax reserve of $0.5 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009.

Other Contingencies

We previously reported that we received notice from the Defense Contract Audit Agency ("DCAA") questioning the reasonableness of a payment to one of our subcontractors on the 2005 docking-Planned Incremental Availability ("dPIA") of the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis. During the first quarter of our fiscal year 2009 the DCAA issued its final report disapproving $3.1 million of costs related to payments made to the subcontractor and costs incurred by us to perform work which was contracted to the subcontractor. The Navy contracting officer then issued the decision to disallow the costs and withhold the above stated amount from payments due on our current contracts with the Navy. In response, we filed a Request for Equitable Adjustment ("REA") with the Navy contracting officer to allow the $3.1 million in incurred costs. In the event of an unfavorable decision on our REA, we will file an appeal to the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals or directly to federal court. We established a reserve for this item in the amount of $3.1 million and recorded the resulting transaction as a reduction in revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Navy collected the entire amount in the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 through the non-payment of other outstanding project receivables. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Navy agreed to return the $3.1 million while the REA and additional information we have provided is under consideration. There are no assurances that the Navy will agree with our REA. Our current financial statements continue to reflect a reserve in billings in excess of sales for the $3.1 million at issue.

We previously reported during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 that the Navy's Puget Sound contracting office notified us of several instances of potential noncompliance with government Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS") relating to our five-year phased maintenance contract to perform repair work on the aircraft carriers located in the Puget Sound which was completed in fiscal year 2009. The instances under review primarily focus on our long standing cost allocation methods applicable to our Navy contracts and the degree to which we allocate indirect costs to work performed under our Navy cost-type contracts. We believe that we have valid positions and defenses to the findings of potential noncompliance and we are responding to the notification in an effort to resolve the matter prior to action by the Navy.

Additionally, in the current fiscal year, the Navy and the DCAA have questioned several modifications we made to our cost allocation methods and the degree to which we allocate indirect costs to work performed under our government cost-type contracts. We believe that we are in compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations and CAS and are making every effort to resolve these outstanding issues with the Navy's Puget Sound contracting officer. We have submitted proposals for consideration by the Navy to resolve all outstanding government cost accounting issues and began discussions with the Navy during the second quarter of fiscal year 2010. These discussions continued throughout the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. An unfavorable outcome in these matters could have a significant impact on our cost structure with the Navy and, depending upon the scope of any retroactive relief sought by the Navy, could be material in the period recorded. At the end of the third quarter, we recorded a reserve of $1.7 million to cover our estimated exposure for these unresolved government cost accounting issues.

5. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

We reported comprehensive income of $1.50 million for the quarter ended December 27, 2009, which consisted of net income of $1.58 million, $0.01 million net of tax unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, and $0.07 million net of tax unrealized loss on foreign currency forward contracts. For the nine months ended December 27, 2009 we reported comprehensive income of $5.05 million, which consisted of net income of $5.17 million, $0.05 million net of tax unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, and $0.07 million net of tax unrealized loss on foreign currency forward contracts.

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, ended December 28, 2008, we reported comprehensive income of $2.81 million, which consisted of net income of $2.61 million and $0.20 million net of tax unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities. For the nine months ended December 28, 2008, we reported comprehensive income of $3.34 million, which consisted of net income of $3.14 million and a $0.20 million net of tax unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities.

6. NET INCOME PER SHARE

The following table represents the calculation of net income per common equivalent share, diluted.

We excluded 44,000 units of Stock Settled Appreciation Rights ("SSARs") from the calculations for the nine month period ended December 27, 2009 because their affect would be anti-dilutive.

7. STOCK COMPENSATION EXPENSE

The Board of Directors approved the Todd Shipyards Corporation 2003 Incentive Stock Option Plan ("2003 Plan") in 2003 and the shareholders ratified it at the 2003 Annual Meeting. The 2003 Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, performance share awards and restricted stock grants, or any combination of such grants or awards to directors, officers and our key employees to purchase shares of the Class A Common Stock of the Company. The Board of Directors has authorized an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2003 Plan.

We account for stock compensation associated with the restricted stock awards, restricted stock grant agreement, and performance share awards by estimating the compensation cost for all stock based awards at fair value on the date of the grant, and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of stock-based awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and amortize the fair value on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. We estimate future forfeitures and recognize compensation costs only for those equity awards expected to vest. Estimating the percentage of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment. We will record such amounts as an increase or decrease in stock-based compensation in the period we revise the estimates, to the extent that actual results or updated estimates differ from our current estimates. We consider many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including historical voluntary terminations. Actual forfeitures could differ from our current estimates.

The remaining future compensation costs relating to unvested performance share awards and stock grants as of December 27, 2009 are $0.6 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average of 2.9 years, inclusive of estimated forfeitures. We amortize the stock compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is included in administrative and manufacturing overhead expense.

Restricted Stock Units      
Number of Units   Recipients Grant Date Fair Value Per Unit Vesting Period
9,600   Officers 07/01/09  $        16.98 5 Years
4,500   Non-employee Board Members 8/21/2009  $        16.98 3 Years
9,600   Officers 7/1/2008  $        14.48 5 Years
5,250   Non-employee Board Members 8/22/2008  $        14.10 3 Years
16,000   Officers 7/6/2007  $        21.02 5 Years
6,000   Non-employee Board Members 8/22/2007  $        21.96 3 Years

We assume that the officers and the non-employee members of our Board will continue service until their units vest. The forfeiture rate assumed on these units is zero.

Stock-settled Appreciation Rights      
       
Number of Units Recipients Grant Date Fair Value Per Unit Vesting Period
16,000 Officers 7/1/2009  $         3.67 3 Years
12,000 Non-employee Board Members 8/21/2009  $         3.67 3 Years
16,000 Officers 7/1/2008  $         2.38 3 Years
16,000 Officers 7/6/2007  $         4.65 3 Years

We assume that the officers and the non-employee members of our Board will continue service until their units vest. We consider the achievement of the underlying performance criteria to be probable. The forfeiture rate assumed on these units is zero.

Determining Fair Value - We calculate the fair value of SSARs issued to employees and non-employee members of the Board using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We then amortize the fair value on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period of the awards.

Black Scholes Pricing Model      
       
  2010 2009 2008
Expected Volatility 38.35% 33.29% 37.81%
Expected term (in years) 4 4 4
Risk-free interest rate 1.88% 3.66% 5.10%
Expected Dividend 1.50% 1.40% 2.50%
Fair Value per share  $     3.67  $        2.38  $        4.65

8. PENSIONS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

Non-union Pension Plan - We sponsor the Todd Shipyards Corporation Retirement System, a non-contributory defined benefit plan under which certain non-union employees are covered. We base the benefits on years of service and the employee's compensation before retirement. Our funding policy is to fund such retirement costs as required to meet allowable deductibility limits under current Internal Revenue Service regulations. The Plan assets consist principally of common stocks and government and corporate obligations. As of April 10, 2007, new employees are not eligible to enter the plan.

Post Retirement Health Insurance Program - We sponsor a retiree health care plan that provides post retirement medical benefits to former full-time exempt employees, and their spouses, who meet specified criteria. We terminated post retirement health benefits for any employees retiring subsequent to May 15, 1988.

The retirement health care plan contains cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. We fund these benefits monthly through the payment of health insurance premiums.

Because such benefit obligations do not accrue to current employees, there is no current year service cost component of the accumulated post retirement health benefit obligation.

We established a Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association Trust ("VEBA Trust") to fund health benefits for certain retired employees in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, we transferred $2.9 million to the VEBA Trust. Upon completion of the transfer of these funds, we reduced our current assets by $2.9 million and our medical retiree liability by a corresponding amount. We commenced paying certain retiree health benefits from this fund in the first quarter of the current year. We anticipate that we will pay current year retiree health benefits from the VEBA Trust and that we will pay all future retiree health benefits from the VEBA Trust until this fund is exhausted.

On December 8, 2003 the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 ("MMA") was signed into law. MMA introduces prescription drug benefits under Medicare Part D as well as a Federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. We sponsor a post retirement health care benefit plan that provides prescription drug benefits that are deemed actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. We began reflecting the impact due to MMA effective March 31, 2005 and assume it will be in place for the lifetime of the plan. We are currently evaluating whether we will continue to receive this benefit due to recently proposed legislative changes.

Union Pension Plans - Operating Shipyard - We participate in several multi-employer defined benefit and/or defined contribution pension plans, which provide benefits to our collective bargaining employees. The expense under these plans totaled $1.1 million and $0.5 million for the quarters ended December 27, 2009 and December 28, 2008, respectively.

9. INCOME TAXES

We record income taxes using the asset and liability method, whereby we recognize deferred income taxes for temporary differences - the differences between the GAAP financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and those amounts for tax purposes. We report the tax effect of these temporary differences as deferred income tax assets and liabilities on the balance sheet using the applicable enacted tax rates. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

In June 2006, the FASB issued guidance, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. Accordingly, we use a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in our tax returns.

We recognized no material interest or penalties during the three months and nine months ended December 27, 2009. We classify penalties incurred in connection with tax matters as general and administrative expenses, and we classify interest assessments incurred in connection with tax matters as interest expense.

As of March 29, 2009, we have recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $0.3 million related to certain positions which we concluded are more likely than not to be sustained upon audit. The following table summarizes the movement in uncertain tax benefits from March 29, 2009 to December 27, 2009 (in thousands of dollars):

          Gross   Net
March 29, 2009 balance      $         811    $         279
Additions based on current year tax positions   -   -
Additions for prior years' tax positions   -   -
Reductions for prior year's tax positions   -   -
Reductions due to a lapse of the statute of limitations (282)   (99)
Settlements with tax authorities     -   -
December 27, 2009 balance      $         529    $         180
               

Tax years that remain open for examination by federal taxing authorities include 2007, 2008 and 2009.

10. LEASING ACTIVITIES

Lease Income and Lease Expense

We entered into an agreement on January 9, 2006 for the lease of certain facilities and provision of related services to Kiewit-General in connection with the construction of the Hood Canal Floating Bridge. The lease ended in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.

11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LAIBILITIES

As of December 27, 2009 and March 29, 2009 our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities primarily consisted of cash, government and government agency securities, money market funds, and other investment grade securities. We record such amounts at fair value.

We use a hierarchy based on the inputs to measure fair value. The three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in our valuation methodologies, is:

Level 1 Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonable available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

The following table summarizes, by major security type, our assets and liabilities that we measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy as of December 27, 2009:

(in thousands of dollars) Cash   Level 1 Estimated Fair Value   Level 2 Estimated Fair Value   Level 3 Estimated Fair Value   Total Estimated Fair Value
                 
Cash  $      2,790                      -                    -                       -    $          2,790

We utilize forward foreign exchange contracts to reduce the impact of foreign currency exchange rate risks where natural hedging strategies cannot be effectively employed. All hedging instruments held by us are cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Generally, these contracts have maturities less than two years. At December 27, 2009, we had $3.2 million in foreign exchange contracts. We do not expect to convert the foreign currencies to U.S. dollars at maturity because we have entered into banking arrangements to deposit these funds in the foreign currency until necessary to fulfill our firm liability commitments.

We translate our foreign currency assets and liabilities at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and the foreign exchange hedging assets and liabilities using quoted market rates on the balance sheet date. We charge our translation adjustments resulting from this process to other comprehensive income (a component of stockholders' equity), net of taxes. Realized gains and losses resulting from the effects of changes in exchange rates on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are included in non-operating expense as foreign currency transaction gains and losses.

We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The purpose of our hedging activities is to reduce the risk that the valuation of the underlying assets, liabilities and firm commitments will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. Our derivative activities do not create foreign currency exchange rate risk because fluctuations in the value of the instruments used for hedging purposes are offset by fluctuations in the value of the underlying exposures being hedged.

12. CORRECTION OF PRIOR PERIOD MISSTATEMENTS

In our Form 10-K for fiscal year ended March 29, 2009, we discussed that during fiscal year 2009 we discovered an error in how we reported several funds that were held by one of our health insurance carriers. Although we did not previously report these funds on our balance sheet, we determined that they were reportable assets and that their value should be included in our consolidated financial statements. For the twelve months ending March 29, 2009, the errors had no impact on reported cash flows from operating, financing or investing activities and were considered immaterial to previously reported results of operations.

In the first quarter of the current fiscal year, we determined a deferred tax liability of $0.9 million should have been reported when we corrected our prior misstatements. This correction was not material to previously issued interim and annual financial statements as it was limited to a balance sheet adjustment and did not affect the statements of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, we overstated retained earnings by $0.9 million as of the end of fiscal year 2009 and understated our deferred tax liability by $0.9 million. We recorded these corrections in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010. However, to improve comparability between fiscal years 2010 and 2009, we elected to reflect the corrections as if they were corrected at the beginning of fiscal year 2009. The effect of the correction is a reduction in our beginning retained earnings of $0.9 million and an increase in our long-term deferred tax liability of $0.9 million for the quarters ending June 29, 2008 and June 28, 2009. Since the cumulative impact of correcting this error would be material to the results of the three months ended June 28, 2009, we applied the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 250, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections." This guidance requires that we correct the prior period financial statements, even though such revisions previously were, and continue to be, immaterial to the prior period financial statements. Please refer to our 10-K issued for the period ending March 29, 2009 under Note 20 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Item 8) for further discussion regarding Correction of Prior Period Misstatements.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We evaluated subsequent events through February 4, 2010, the filing date of these statements with the SEC. In addition to the items noted in the preceding Notes, the following events occurred between our quarter ended December 27, 2009 and February 4, 2010.

On January 27, 2010, we were awarded a change order to Part A of the contract with WSF for the execution of the detailed production design of the 144-Auto Ferries in the amount of $8.3 million.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are an integral part of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and should be read in conjunction herewith.

OVERVIEW

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from work performed under our contracts with the Navy and the Coast Guard. The Navy and the Coast Guard schedule work under such contracts at their convenience.

We currently hold a Multi-Ship/Multi-Option cost-type contract ("CVN Contract") for the non-nuclear repair work on the aircraft carriers home ported or stationed in Puget Sound. The Navy first awarded us the CVN Contract in 1999 and we completed our second five-year contract during the third quarter of fiscal year 2009. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Navy awarded us a new five-year contract to continue our work on the aircraft carriers through 2013.

On December 1, 2008 Washington State Ferries ("WSF") awarded us a $65.5 million firm fixed-price contract for the construction of one 64-Auto Ferry. The ferry, currently under construction in our Seattle shipyard, is scheduled to be delivered 18 months after the Notice to Proceed was issued by WSF on January 5, 2009. The contract contains liquidated damages for late delivery. Our wholly owned subsidiary, Everett, is a subcontractor on the project.

On October 13, 2009, we were awarded a $114.1 million contract from WSF for the construction of two additional 64-Auto Ferries. As part of this award, WSF has an option for the construction of a third additional vessel in the class for $50.8 million, which must be exercised no later than May 31, 2011. These three additional vessels represent the second, third, and fourth vessels in their class. The contract commenced upon receiving the Notice to Proceed from WSF on November 9, 2009. The contract contemplates delivery of the second vessel in the class 18 months after Notice to Proceed, and the third vessel nine months after delivery of the second.

In July 2007, we, as prime contractor, commenced negotiations with WSF for the terms and conditions of a contract to build up to four 144-Auto Ferries. We concluded those negotiations and executed the prime contract with WSF in December 2007. WSF issued the contract in two parts. Part A provides for the design of the ferries and Part B will dictate the terms of the actual construction of the ferries. Part A of the contract, which was awarded for $2.3 million, is shared between us and our primary subcontractor, Guido Perla & Associates of Seattle, Washington, who will provide ferry design services. We reached agreement on the terms and conditions of a subcontract with Martinac Shipbuilding of Tacoma, Washington in December 2007 to be a subcontractor to us for Part B of the contract. Once the design and cost estimate are complete, we are contractually obligated to negotiate a price and delivery schedule for Part B of the contract, covering the construction of the ferries, with WSF. The timetable for the contract execution of Part B is dependent upon the availability of funds from WSF. There are no assurances that we will reach agreement with WSF on a price for construction of the ferries, a mutually acceptable delivery schedule, or that the necessary funding will be available from the State of Washington to build any or all of the ferries.

Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, we negotiated a change order to Part A of the contract with WSF for the execution of the detailed production design of the 144-Auto Ferries in the amount of $8.3 million. The change order was effective January 27, 2010 and the design work is scheduled to be completed by June 2011. We have subcontracted the production design services to Guido Perla & Associates of Seattle, Washington.

Operating Results

Revenue - Our third quarter revenue of $47.1 million reflects a $13.7 million, or 41% increase from the same period last fiscal year. The increase largely results from higher ship repair and new construction volumes. Cost-type and firm fixed price revenues both increased 65% between the third quarters of fiscal years 2009 and 2010, while work under time-and-material contracts decreased by 76%. New construction volumes increased primarily due to the construction of the 64-Auto Ferry for WSF and cost-type volumes increased due to the timing of Navy and Coast Guard vessel availabilities, the most significant of which were the USS Abraham Lincoln and the USCGC Healy.

Revenue for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was $131.3 million, which reflects a $51.0 million, or 64% increase from the same period last fiscal year. The year to year increase results largely from higher ship repair and new construction volumes primarily due to the construction of the 64-Auto Ferry for WSF and the Navy and Coast Guard availabilities discussed above. Cost-type and firm fixed price work revenues increased 58% and 16%, respectively, between the third quarters of fiscal years 2009 and 2010, while work under time-and-material contracts decreased by 76%. We previously reported that we received a notice from DCAA questioning the reasonableness of a payment to one of our subcontractors for work performed on the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis, under a cost-type contract in fiscal year 2005. We established a $3.1 million reserve for this item in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009 and filed an REA with the Navy contracting officer to allow the $3.1 million in incurred costs. In the event of an unfavorable decision on our REA, we will file an appeal to the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals or directly to federal court.

The ship repair business consists of individual and short duration repair events, some of which the government exercised under its various multi-ship, multi-option contracts. The new construction business consists of individual and multiple vessel construction contracts typically of one to two years duration. Consequently, operating results for any period presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected in any other period.

Cost of Revenue - Cost of revenue during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $35.5 million, or 75% of revenue. Cost of revenue during the third quarter of fiscal year 2009 was $22.1 million, or 66% of revenue. The increase in the cost of revenue in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 is primarily attributable to an increase in volumes versus the same period in the prior year. The increase in cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue for the third quarter is due primarily to an increase in work under cost-type contracts and new construction on the 64-Auto Ferry which are characterized by lower relative profitability, and the Commencement Bay contingent agreement reserve of $1.3 million dollars.

Cost of revenue during the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was $97.4 million, or 74% of revenue. During the same period of fiscal year 2009, cost of revenue was $55.2 million, or 69% of revenue. The increase in the cost of revenue in the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 versus the same period last year is primarily attributable to the increase in revenues discussed above. The increase in the cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue in the current year is due primarily to an increase in work under cost-type contracts which are characterized by lower relative profitability and the Commencement Bay agreement reserve of $1.3 million dollars.

Administrative and Manufacturing Overhead Expense - Overhead costs for administrative and manufacturing activities were $9.3 million, or 20% of revenue, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. During the same period of fiscal year 2009, administrative and manufacturing overhead costs were $8.7 million, or 26% of revenue. The $0.6 million increase in administrative and manufacturing overhead is primarily attributable to the volume increases in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 versus the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in administrative costs and manufacturing overhead as a percentage of revenue is attributable to the fixed nature of some of these costs and the full year impact of cost savings measures implemented in fiscal year 2009.

Administrative and manufacturing overhead costs for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 were $27.1 million, or 21% of revenue. During the same period of fiscal year 2009, administrative and manufacturing overhead costs were $23.8 million, or 30% of revenue. The $3.2 million increase is the result of higher volumes during the first nine months of 2010 versus the same period in the prior year and the other items discussed above. The decrease in administrative costs and manufacturing overhead as percentage of revenue is attributable to the fixed nature of some of these costs and the full year impact of cost savings measures implemented in the prior year.

Investment & Other Income - Investment and other income (including gain on the sale of available-for-sale securities) was $0.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 and $0.9 million for the first nine months ended December 27, 2009. During the same periods in fiscal year 2009 investment and other income was $1.3 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Lease income and lease expense in fiscal year 2010 was reduced by the completion of contracts to lease certain facilities and provide related services to Kiewit-General in connection with their construction of the Hood Canal Floating Bridge.

Income Taxes - Our effective income tax rate was 33.8% and 34% in the third quarters of fiscal year 2010 and 2009, respectively. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 we recorded $0.8 million of expense associated with federal income tax. During the same period in fiscal year 2009 we recorded $1.3 million in federal income tax expense.

Our effective income tax rate was 33.8% and 34% in the first nine months of fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively. We recorded $2.6 million in federal tax expense in the first nine months of fiscal year 2010, and $1.6 million in federal income tax expense in the first nine months of fiscal year 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We anticipate that our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities position, anticipated fiscal year 2010 cash flow, access to credit facilities and, if necessary, capital markets, taken together, will provide sufficient liquidity to fund operations for fiscal year 2010. However, we expect to finance shipyard capital expenditures from working capital. Changes in the composition and/or timing of projected work could cause planned capital expenditures and repair and maintenance expenditures to change.

Working Capital

Working capital at December 27, 2009 was $35.5 million, an increase of $7.4 million, or 26%, from the working capital reported at the end of fiscal year 2009. The overall increase is due to an increase in accounts receivable of $4.6 million, and an increase in cost in excess of billings of $5.0 million, which are partially offset by a decrease in cash of $1.7 million and an increase in accounts payable of $0.6 million. These changes are primarily due to increased volumes and timing of billings and payments for our Navy, Coast Guard and new construction customers.

Capital Expenditures

We made capital acquisitions of $0.5 million and $1.4 million in the third quarters of fiscal years 2010 and 2009, and $1.5 million and $1.9 million in the first three quarters of fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively, for planned improvements to our shipyard facilities.

Credit Facility

In July 2009, we renegotiated certain terms of our $10.0 million revolving credit facility. In July 2009, we also added a new $15.0 million credit facility to support the issuance of letters of credit to meet our performance security obligations on the WSF 64-Auto Ferry new construction project and other commercial new construction projects when performance security is required. As of December 27, 2009, we have letters of credit outstanding of $1.6 million on our revolving credit facility and $11.4 million on our performance letter of credit facility. These reduced our available revolving credit facility to $8.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively. The revolving credit facility and the performance letter of credit, which are renewable on a bi-annual basis, provide us with flexibility in funding our operating cash flow needs. We have certain financial debt covenants that we must meet in order to maintain these credit lines. As of December 27, 2009, we were compliant with all bank covenants.

Dividends

On December 21, 2009 we paid a dividend of five cents ($0.05) per share to all shareholders of record as of December 4, 2009. On September 21, 2009 we paid a dividend of five cents ($0.05) per share to all shareholders of record as of September 4, 2009. On June 23, 2009 we paid a dividend of five cents ($0.05) per share to all shareholders of record as of June 8, 2009. The cumulative amount of dividends paid on a year-to-date basis as of December 27, 2009 was $0.9 million.

RESERVES AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES

As reflected in the balance sheet and discussed in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, we provided total aggregate reserves of $12.3 million at December 27, 2009 for our contingent environmental and bodily injury liabilities. As of March 29, 2009, we had recorded aggregate reserves of $11.1 million. Due to the complexities and extensive history of our environmental and bodily injury matters, the amounts and timing of future expenditures are uncertain. As a result, there can be no assurance that the ultimate resolution of these environmental and bodily injury matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

We maintain various insurance policies and agreements that provide coverage for the costs to remediate environmental sites and for the defense and settlement of bodily injury cases. These policies and agreements are primarily with two insurance companies. Based upon the current credit ratings of both of these companies, we anticipate that both parties will be able to perform under the terms of their respective policy or agreement.

As of December 27, 2009, we recorded aggregate assets of $9.0 million related to our reserves for environmental and bodily injury liabilities. As of March 29, 2009, we recorded aggregate assets of $9.0 million. These assets reflect receivables under contractual arrangements with the insurance companies to share costs for certain environmental and other matters, as well as amounts deposited to securitize certain remediation activities. We record amounts recoverable from insurance companies within our Consolidated Balance Sheets as insurance receivables and, in the case of reimbursements currently due, as a current asset. We record amounts held in security deposits within our balance sheet as restricted cash.

We previously reported that we received notice from the DCAA questioning the reasonableness of a payment to one of our subcontractors on the 2005 dPIA of the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2009 the DCAA issued its final report disapproving $3.1 million of costs related to payments made to the subcontractor and costs incurred by us to perform work which we contracted to the subcontractor. The Navy contracting officer then issued the decision to disallow the costs and withhold the above stated amount from payments due on our current contracts with the Navy. In response, we filed an REA with the Navy contracting officer to allow the $3.1 million in incurred costs. In the event of an unfavorable decision on our REA, we will file an appeal to the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals or directly to federal court. We established a reserve for this item in the amount of $3.1 million and recorded the resulting transaction as a reduction in revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Navy collected the entire amount in the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 through the non-payment of other outstanding project receivables. In the third quarter of 2009, the Navy agreed to return the $3.1 million while the REA and additional information we have provided is under consideration. There are no assurances that the Navy will agree with our REA. Our current financial statements continue to reflect a reserve in billings in excess of sales for the $3.1 million at issue.

We previously reported during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 that the Navy's Puget Sound contracting office notified us of several instances of potential noncompliance with government Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS") relating to our five-year phased maintenance contract to perform repair work on the aircraft carriers located in the Puget Sound which was completed in fiscal year 2009. The instances under review primarily focus on our long standing cost allocation methods applicable to our Navy contracts and the degree to which we allocate indirect costs to work performed under our Navy cost-type contracts. We believe that we have valid positions and defenses to the findings of potential noncompliance and we have responded to the notification in an effort to resolve the matter prior to action by the Navy.

Additionally, in the current fiscal year, the Navy and the DCAA have questioned several modifications we made to our cost allocation methods and the degree to which we allocate indirect costs to work performed under our government cost-type contracts. We believe that we have valid positions and defenses to the government's assertions and we are responding in an effort to resolve these issues. We have submitted proposals for consideration by the Navy to resolve all outstanding government cost accounting issues and began discussions with the Navy during the second quarter of fiscal year 2010. These discussions continued throughout the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. An unfavorable outcome in these matters could have a significant impact on our cost structure with the Navy and, depending upon the scope of any retroactive relief sought by the Navy, could be material in the period recorded. At the end of the third quarter, we recorded a reserve of $1.7 million to cover our estimated exposure for these unresolved government cost accounting issues.

BACKLOG

At December 27, 2009 our firm shipyard backlog consisted of approximately $158.2 million of repair and overhaul work. Our backlog at March 29, 2009 was approximately $84.0 million. The increase in the backlog of work at the end of the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 is primarily attributed to the award of a contract in the second quarter of fiscal year 2010 from WSF for the construction of two 64-Auto Ferries.

LABOR RELATIONS

In September 2008, we reached an agreement for a new collective bargaining agreement with the Puget Sound Metal Trades Council (the bargaining umbrella for all unions at Todd Pacific) which the rank and file members at the Seattle shipyard subsequently ratified. The five-year agreement, which was retroactive to August 1, 2008, will expire on July 31, 2013. The shipyard workers employed by Everett are represented by the Boilermakers and Carpenters Unions under a separate collective bargaining agreement that will expire July 31, 2010. We consider our relations with the various unions to be stable.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. There are no significant changes to our market risk since March 29, 2009.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), defines the term "disclosure controls and procedures" to mean a company's controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. "Disclosure controls and procedures" include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures by our management, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 27, 2009, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Port of Tacoma, Washington filed a civil action against us during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 in the United States District Court (Western District of Washington in Tacoma) for contribution under CERCLA and the Model Toxics Control Act ("MTCA"). We previously disclosed our involvement with the CERCLA and MTCA remediation efforts in the Hylebos Waterway of Commencement Bay in Tacoma, Washington and subsequent natural resources assessment by the statutorily named trustees ("Commencement Bay Trustees"). A former subsidiary of ours operated a shipbuilding operation on the Hylebos Waterway under contract to the United States Navy ("Navy") during World War I and World War II. The contract between our subsidiary and the Navy for the operation of the shipyard site included an indemnification clause flowing from the Navy to our subsidiary. We have tendered any potential liability to the Navy pursuant to this contract. The government to date has not accepted this tender nor has it agreed to indemnify us. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, we reached a contingent settlement agreement in this litigation with the Port of Tacoma. The agreement is subject to approval by the government, which is necessary to protect our potential right of indemnification. The agreement resulted in a $1.3 million charge against cost of revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2010.
