NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1:                      BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
a.           Company:
 
Arotech Corporation (“Arotech”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”) provide defense and security products for the military, law enforcement and homeland security markets, including advanced zinc-air and lithium batteries and chargers, and multimedia interactive simulators/trainers. The Company operates primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiaries FAAC Incorporated (“FAAC”), based in Ann Arbor, Michigan with locations in Royal Oak, Michigan and Orlando, Florida; Electric Fuel Battery Corporation (“EFB”), based in Auburn, Alabama; and Epsilor-Electric Fuel Ltd. (survivor of the merger of Electric Fuel Ltd. (“EFL”), based in Beit Shemesh, Israel, into Epsilor Electronic Industries, Ltd.) (“Epsilor-EFL”), based in Dimona, Israel. IES Interactive Training (“IES”) and Realtime Technologies (“RTI”) were merged with FAAC to create Arotech’s Training and Simulation Division. Pursuant to management discussions in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company’s Armor Division, consisting of M.D.T. Protective Industries, Ltd. (“MDT”), based in Lod, Israel, and MDT Armor Corporation (“MDT Armor”), based in Auburn, Alabama, along with the trade name of Armour of America Incorporated (“AoA”), are reflected as discontinued operations for all periods presented. On June 20, 2012, the Company signed a definitive agreement with an Israeli public company, Shladot Ltd. (“Shladot”), and a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of Shladot, pursuant to which Shladot purchased certain of the assets, subject to certain of the liabilities, of the discontinued Armor Division, for a total cash purchase price of $50,000. The assets consisted principally of inventory, intellectual property and contracts. Closing of the transaction took place simultaneously with the signing of the agreement.
 
b.           Basis of presentation:
 
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Arotech Corporation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and include the accounts of Arotech Corporation and its subsidiaries. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in complete financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position at June 30, 2012, its operating results for the six- and three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and its cash flows for the six- and three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.
 
The results of operations for the six- and three months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.
 
The balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
c.           Accounting for stock-based compensation:
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 the compensation expense recorded related to restricted stock units and restricted shares was $118,574 and $132,919, respectively. The remaining total compensation cost related to share awards not yet recognized in the income statement as of June 30, 2012 was $231,254 all of which was for restricted stock units and restricted shares that vest on longevity rather than performance. The weighted average period over which this compensation cost is expected to be recognized is approximately one and one-half years. Income tax expense was not impacted since the Company is in a net operating loss position. There were no new options issued in the first six months of 2012 and no options were exercised in the first six months of 2012.
 
d.           Reclassification:
 
Certain comparative data in these financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
 
e.           Anti-dilutive shares for EPS calculation
 
All outstanding stock options, non-vested restricted stock, non-vested restricted stock units, and warrants have been excluded from the calculation of the basic net income (loss) per common share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for the periods presented and the Company has excluded any restricted stock or restricted stock units that will never vest under the current program. The total weighted average number of shares related to the outstanding options and warrants excluded from the calculations of diluted net income (loss) per share for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were 667,693 and 1,440,949, respectively.

f.           Discontinued operations
 
In December 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved management’s plan to sell the Armor Division. On June 20, 2012, the Company signed a definitive agreement with an Israeli public company, Shladot Ltd. (“Shladot”), and a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of Shladot, pursuant to which Shladot purchased certain of the assets, subject to certain of the liabilities, of the Armor Division, for a total cash purchase price of $50,000. The assets consisted principally of inventory, intellectual property and contracts. Closing of the transaction took place simultaneously with the signing of the agreement. The Company believes that the disposal of the Armor Division has not and will not have a material adverse effect on its liquidity.  Unless otherwise indicated, discontinued operations are not included in the Company’s reported results.
 
Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures throughout the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relate to the Company’s continuing operations. The assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation after impairment and the revenues and expenses of the discontinued operation are shown below.

NOTE 2:                      INVENTORIES
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the average cost method or the FIFO method. The Company periodically evaluates the quantities on hand relative to current and historical selling prices and historical and projected sales volume. Based on these evaluations, provisions are made in each period to write down inventory to its net realizable value. Inventory write-offs are provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items, technological obsolescence, excess inventories, and for market prices lower than cost. Inventories in continuing business segments increased, from December 31, 2011, $446,793 in the Training and Simulation Division and $426,427 in the Battery Division for the product required to fulfill the current backlog. Inventories are composed of the following:

NOTE 3:                      IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
For information about previous new accounting pronouncements and the potential impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2011 Form 10-K.
 
Additionally, the Company has adopted ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) — Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2011-05 eliminated the prior option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In addition, it requires entities to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. A portion of ASU 2011-05 became effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2012. In October 2011, the FASB decided to defer the above-described presentation of reclassification adjustments until further consideration. The impact of adoption did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
NOTE 4:                      SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
a.           The Company and its subsidiaries operate primarily in two continuing business segments and follow the requirements of FASB ASC 280-10. Additionally, the two segments are also treated by the Company as reporting units for goodwill purposes under FASB ASC 350-20-35. The goodwill amounts associated with each of these reporting units was determined and valued when the specific businesses in the reportable segment were purchased.
 
The Company’s reportable operating segments have been determined in accordance with the Company’s internal management structure, which is organized based on operating activities. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those used by the Company in the preparation of its annual financial statement. The Company evaluates performance based upon two primary factors, one is the segment’s operating income and the other is the segment’s contribution to the Company’s future strategic growth.

NOTE 5:                      CONVERTIBLE NOTES AND DETACHABLE WARRANTS
 
10% Senior Convertible Notes due August 15, 2011
 
Pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated August 14, 2008, the Company issued and sold to a group of institutional investors 10% senior convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million due August 15, 2011. These notes were convertible at any time prior to August 15, 2011 at a conversion price of $2.24 per share. As part of the Company’s analysis of the convertible debt and related warrants, the Company reviewed and followed the guidance of FASB ASC 718-10, ASC 815-40-15, ASC 470-20-30 and ASC 105-10-05.
 
As part of the securities purchase agreement, the Company issued to the purchasers of its 10% senior convertible notes due August 15, 2011, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 558,036 shares of common stock at any time prior to August 15, 2011 at a price of $2.24 per share. The warrants were classified in 2008 as equity based on relative fair value. The relative fair value of these warrants was determined in 2008 using the Black-Scholes pricing model.
 
As of August 15, 2011, the Notes were paid in full and all associated warrants had expired.
 
NOTE 6:                      FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
 
The carrying value of short term assets and liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, restricted collateral deposits, trade receivables, unbilled receivables, inventories, prepaid and other assets, trade payables, accrued expenses, deferred revenues and other liabilities as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of long term debt approximates the estimated fair values at June 30, 2012, based upon the Company’s ability to acquire similar debt at similar maturities
 
NOTE 7:                      COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
 
In February 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions of up to $1.0 million of the Company’s common stock. Through June 30, 2012, the Company repurchased 638,611 shares for a total of $869,931. The repurchase program is subject to management’s discretion.
 
NOTE 8:                      AFFILIATED PARTIES

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the interim financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. We have rounded amounts reported here to the nearest thousand, unless such amounts are more than 1.0 million, in which event we have rounded such amounts to the nearest hundred thousand.
 
Executive Summary
 
We are a defense and security products and services company, engaged in two business areas: interactive simulation for military, law enforcement and commercial markets; and batteries and charging systems for the military. We operate in two business units:
 
we develop, manufacture and market advanced high-tech multimedia and interactive digital solutions for use-of-force training and driving training of military, law enforcement, security and other personnel (our Training and Simulation Division); and
 
we manufacture and sell lithium and Zinc-Air batteries for defense and security products and other military applications (our Battery and Power Systems Division).
 
Between 2002 and December 2011, we were also engaged in utilizing advanced engineering concepts to manufacture military and paramilitary armored vehicles, and employing sophisticated lightweight materials to produce aviation armor, through our Armor Division. In December 2011, our Board of Directors approved management’s plan to sell our Armor Division in order to focus on the more profitable and growth-oriented aspects of our business.
 
The discontinuation and subsequent asset sale of the Armor Division resulted in a one-time, pre-tax charge during the fourth quarter of 2011 of approximately $3.9 million, reflecting an impairment of goodwill and intangibles ($1.8 million), an impairment of other long-lived assets ($1.5 million), a write-off of a joint venture investment ($269,000), and costs associated with change of control provisions and other non-statutory severance expenses ($302,000). Also during the 2nd quarter of 2012, the Company incurred additional expenses of $1.1 million related to the sale of Armor Division assets. Almost all of these charges are non-cash impacting items.
 
Overview of Results of Operations
 
Acquisitions
 
In the acquisition of subsidiaries, part of the purchase price is allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. Amortization of definite-lived intangible assets related to acquisition of subsidiaries is recorded based on the estimated expected life of the assets. Accordingly, for a period of time following an acquisition, we incur a non-cash charge related to amortization of definite-lived intangible assets in the amount of a fraction (based on the useful life of the definite-lived intangible assets) of the amount recorded as intangible assets. Such amortization charges continued during the first six months of 2012. We are required to review long-lived intangible assets and goodwill for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If we determine, through the impairment review process, that the carrying amount of these assets has been impaired, we must record the impairment charge in our statement of operations.

Financings and Issuances of Warrants
 
The non-cash charges that relate to our financings occurred in connection with our issuance of convertible securities with warrants, and in connection with our repricing of certain warrants and grants of new warrants. When we issue convertible securities, we record a discount for a beneficial conversion feature that is amortized ratably over the life of the debenture.
 
During the third quarter of 2008 and pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated August 14, 2008, we issued and sold to a group of institutional investors 10% senior convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million due August 15, 2011. These notes were convertible at any time prior to August 15, 2011 at a conversion price of $2.24 per share. As part of our analysis of the convertible debt and related warrants, we reviewed and followed the guidance of FASB ASC 718-10, ASC 815-40-15, ASC 470-20-30 and ASC 105-10-05.
 
As part of the securities purchase agreement, we issued to the purchasers of our 10% senior convertible notes due August 15, 2011, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 558,036 shares of common stock at any time prior to August 15, 2011 at a price of $2.24 per share. As of August 15, 2011, the Notes were paid in full and all associated warrants had expired.
 
Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units and Options
 
In accordance with FASB ASC 505-50, we incurred, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, compensation expense related to restricted stock units and restricted shares of approximately $119,000 and $133,000, respectively. Our directors received their annual restricted stock grants on April 3, 2012 in accordance with the terms of the directors’ stock compensation plan.
 
Overview of Operating Performance and Backlog for Continuing Operations
 
Overall, our loss from continuing operations before income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $2.0 million on revenues of $36.5 million, compared to a loss of $2.1 million on revenues of $23.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2012, our overall backlog totaled $87.3 million compared to $94.9 million in the second quarter of 2011.
 
In our Training and Simulation Division, revenues increased from approximately $14.7 million in the first six months of 2011 to $27.4 million in the first six months of 2012. As of June 30, 2012, our backlog for our Training and Simulation Division totaled $78.7 million compared to $81.4 million in the second quarter of 2011.
 
In our Battery and Power Systems Division, revenues increased from approximately $8.3 million in the first six months of 2011 to approximately $9.1 million in the first six months of 2012. As of June 30, 2012, our backlog for our Battery and Power Systems Division totaled $8.6 million compared to $13.5 million in the second quarter of 2011.

Recent Developments
 
Sale of Assets of Armor Division
 
On June 20, 2012, we signed a definitive agreement with an Israeli public company, Shladot Ltd. (“Shladot”), and a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of Shladot, pursuant to which Shladot purchased certain of the assets, subject to certain of the liabilities, of our discontinued Armor Division, for a total cash purchase price of $50,000. The assets consisted principally of inventory, intellectual property and contracts. Closing of the transaction took place simultaneously with the signing of the agreement. Operations will continue on a limited basis for the next sixty to ninety days until the final six vehicles are completed and delivered.
 
Functional Currency
 
We consider the United States dollar to be the currency of the primary economic environment in which we and EFL operate and, therefore, both we and EFL have adopted and are using the United States dollar as our functional currency. Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at the original amounts. Gains and losses arising from non-dollar transactions and balances are included in net income.
 
The majority of financial transactions of Epsilor is in New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”) and a substantial portion of Epsilor’s costs is incurred in NIS. Management believes that the NIS is the functional currency of Epsilor. Accordingly, the financial statements of Epsilor have been translated into U.S. dollars. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Statement of operations amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity.
 
Results of Operations
 
Three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.
 
Revenues. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 totaled $20.4 million, compared to $10.6 million in the comparable period in 2011, an increase of $9.8 million, or 92.3%. In the second quarter of 2012, revenues were $16.5 million for the Training and Simulation Division (compared to $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $10.0 million, or 154.9%, due primarily to a major new contract (VCTS)); and $3.9 million for the Battery and Power Systems Division (compared to $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of $225,000, or 5.5%, due primarily to decreased sales in the U.S.).
 
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues totaled $17.0 million during the second quarter of 2012, compared to $7.1 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $9.9 million, or 138.4%, due primarily to increased revenue and the higher costs associated with the new VCTS contract. Cost of revenues were $13.2 million for the Training and Simulation Division (compared to $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $9.8 million, or 290.8%, due primarily to an increase in revenue and the higher costs associated with the new VCTS contract); and $3.8 million for the Battery and Power Systems Division (compared to $3.8 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $49,000, or 1.3%).
 
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2012 were $456,000, compared to $447,000 during the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $9,000, or 2.0%, due primarily to increased spending in the Battery and Power Systems Division for continuing research on the SWIPES system offset by a reduction of expenses in the Training and Simulation Division due to the capitalization of $160,000 in development costs.
 
Selling and marketing expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2012 were $1.3 million, compared to $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $106,000, or 8.7%, due primarily to an increase in the sales force and increases in the demonstration of new products to the military in the Battery and Power Systems Division along with an increase in sales staff in the Training and Simulation Division.
 
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2012 were $2.0 million, compared to $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of $529,000, or 20.9%, due primarily to a reduction of $50,000 in corporate consulting and legal expenses related to transactional activities along with a reduction of $320,000 reduction in compensation and incentive accruals compared to 2011.

Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets totaled $300,000 in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $478,000 in the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of $178,000, or 37.3%, due primarily to decreased charges for fully amortized capitalized software in our Training and Simulation Division.
 
Financial income (expense), net. Financial expense totaled $342,000 in the second quarter of 2012, compared to financial expense of $119,000 in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $223,000, due primarily to exchange rate differences of $282,000, an increase in corporate bank charges of $121,000 offset by $102,000 decrease in charges related to expenses recorded in 2011 for warrants.
 
Income taxes. We recorded $200,000 in tax expense in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $141,000 in tax expense in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $59,000, or 41.9%, mainly concerning “naked” credits (“naked” credits occur when deferred tax liabilities that are created by indefinite-lived assets such as goodwill cannot be used as a source of taxable income to support the realization of deferred tax assets). This amount includes the required adjustment of taxes due to the deduction of goodwill “naked” credits for U.S. federal taxes, which totaled $150,000 and $113,000, respectively, in non-cash expenses in the second quarter of 2012 and 2011.
 
Net loss. Due to the factors cited above, we went from a net loss of $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2011 to a net loss of $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, an improvement of $201,000.
 
Discontinued operations. As noted above, we have discontinued our Armor Division, which generated an operating loss of $1.5 million and net loss of $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2012. Also during the 2nd quarter of 2012, the Company incurred additional expenses of $1.1 million related primarily to the final write down of the raw material inventory due to the sale of Armor Division assets. Almost all of these charges are non-cash impacting items.
 
Six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.
 
Revenues. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 totaled $36.5 million, compared to $23.0 million in the comparable period in 2011, an increase of $13.4 million, or 58.4%. In the first six months of 2012, revenues were $27.4 million for the Training and Simulation Division (compared to $14.7 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $12.7 million, or 86.3%, due primarily to a major new contract (VCTS)); and $9.1 million for the Battery and Power Systems Division (compared to $8.3 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $759,000, or 9.1%, due primarily to increased sales in the U.S. of the SWIPES system).
 
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues totaled $28.8 million during the first six months of 2012, compared to $16.0 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $12.8 million, or 79.9%, due primarily to increased revenue and the higher costs associated with the new VCTS contract. Cost of revenues were $21.1 million for the Training and Simulation Division (compared to $8.3 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $12.8 million, or 152.9%, due primarily to an increase in revenue and the higher costs associated with the new VCTS contract); and $7.7 million for the Battery and Power Systems Division (compared to $7.7 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $43,000, or 0.6%).
 
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the first six months of 2012 were $1.0 million, compared to $855,000 during the first six months of 2011, an increase of $192,000, or 22.5%, due primarily to increased spending in the Battery and Power Systems Division for continuing research on the SWIPES system offset by a reduction of expenses in the Training and Simulation Division due to the capitalization of $160,000 in development costs.
 
Selling and marketing expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the first six months of 2012 were $2.6 million, compared to $2.4 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $211,000, or 8.8%, due primarily to an increase in the sales force and increases in the demonstration of new products to the military in the Battery and Power Systems Division.
 
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the first six months of 2012 were $5.0 million, compared to $5.0 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $38,000, or 0.8%, due primarily to $733,000 in corporate consulting and legal expenses related to transactional activities offset by a $546,000 reduction in compensation and incentive accruals compared to 2011.
 
Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets totaled $601,000 in the first six months of 2012, compared to $955,000 in the first six months of 2011, a decrease of $354,000, or 37.0%, due primarily to decreased charges for fully amortized capitalized software in our Training and Simulation Division.

Financial income (expense), net. Financial expense totaled $379,000 in the first six months of 2012, compared to financial expense of $10,000 in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $369,000, due primarily to exchange rate differences of $230,000, an increase in corporate bank charges of $123,000 offset by $53,000 decrease in charges related to warrants.
 
Income taxes. We recorded $397,000 in tax expense in the first six months of 2012, compared to $281,000 in tax expense in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $116,000, or 41.2%, mainly concerning “naked” credits (“naked” credits occur when deferred tax liabilities that are created by indefinite-lived assets such as goodwill cannot be used as a source of taxable income to support the realization of deferred tax assets). This amount includes the required adjustment of taxes due to the deduction of goodwill “naked” credits for U.S. federal taxes, which totaled $299,000 and $225,000, respectively, in non-cash expenses in the first six months of 2012 and 2011.
 
Net loss. Due to the factors cited above, we went from a net loss of $2.4 million in the first six months of 2011 to a net loss of $2.4 million in the first six months of 2012.
 
Discontinued operations. As noted above, we have discontinued our Armor Division, which generated an operating loss of $1.5 million and net loss of $1.6 in the first six months of 2012. Also during the 2nd quarter of 2012, the Company incurred additional expenses of $1.1 million related primarily to the final write down of the raw material inventory due to the sale of Armor Division assets. Almost all of these charges are non-cash impacting items.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of June 30, 2012, we had $1.4 million in cash and $93,000 in restricted collateral deposits, as compared to December 31, 2011, when we had $2.3 million in cash and $1.7 million in restricted collateral deposits. We also had $2.2 million in unused bank lines of credit with our main bank as of June 30, 2012, under a $10.0 million credit facility under our FAAC subsidiary, which is secured by our assets and the assets of our other subsidiaries and guaranteed by us. There was $2.1 million of available credit on this line as of June 30, 2012, based on our borrowing base calculations.
 
Effective April 30, 2012, we and FAAC entered into an agreement with a different primary bank that has provided us with a replacement $10.0 million credit facility under our FAAC subsidiary, which is secured by our assets and the assets of our other domestic subsidiaries and guaranteed by us and our other domestic subsidiaries, at a rate of LIBOR plus 375 basis points. This credit facility expires May 2013. The new credit agreement contains certain covenants, including minimum Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), quarterly Maximum Increase in Net Advance to Affiliates of less than 90% of EBITDA and a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.1 to 1.0. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we did not meet the required minimum EBITDA and received a waiver of that covenant violation in August 2012.
 
We used available funds in the six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily for working capital, investment in fixed assets and repayment of short term debt. We purchased approximately $312,000 of fixed assets during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Our net fixed assets amounted to $4.4 million at quarter end.
 
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $3.6 million and $6.7 million, respectively, a decrease of $3.1 million. This decrease in cash used was due primarily to a $1.3 million decrease in discontinued operations along with changes in working capital. Additionally, there has been a significant impact on available cash in the previous six months in part due to unbilled receivables increasing $4.4 million and inventories increasing $873,000 since year end 2011.
 
Net cash (used in)/provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1.1 million and $(276,000), a difference of $1.4 million. This difference was due primarily to the release of $1.6 million in restricted funds due to the completion of a significant contract by the Training and Simulation Division.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1.5 million and $1.8 million, respectively, a decrease of $243,000. The decrease in 2012 of cash used in financing activities was due primarily to changes in short term borrowing under our primary line of credit. As noted above, there has been a significant impact on available cash in the previous six months which resulted in an increase in short term borrowing of $1.9 million since year end 2011.
 
As of June 30, 2012, we had approximately $8.5 million in short-term bank debt and $1.1 million in long-term debt outstanding. This is in comparison to $6.6 million in short-term bank debt and $1.1 million in long-term debt outstanding as of December 31, 2011. Additionally, we had approximately $934,000 in long-term debt outstanding in the discontinued Armor division.
 
Subject to all of the reservations regarding “forward-looking statements” set forth above, we believe that our present cash position, anticipated cash flows from operations and lines of credit should be sufficient to satisfy our current estimated cash requirements through the remainder of the year.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
It is our policy not to enter into interest rate derivative financial instruments, except for hedging of foreign currency exposures discussed below. We do not currently have any significant interest rate exposure.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
Since a significant part of our sales and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars, we have experienced only minor foreign exchange gains and losses to date, and do not expect to incur significant gains and losses in 2012. Certain of our research, development and production activities are carried out by our Israeli subsidiary, Epsilor-EFL, at its facility in Beit Shemesh, and accordingly we have sales and expenses in NIS. Additionally, our Epsilor-EFL subsidiary operates primarily in NIS. However, the majority of our sales are made outside Israel in U.S. dollars, and a substantial portion of our costs are incurred in U.S. dollars. Therefore, our functional currency is the U.S. dollar.
 
While we conduct our business primarily in U.S. dollars, some of our agreements are denominated in foreign currencies, which could have an adverse effect on the revenues that we incur in foreign currencies. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
 
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out by the Company's management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. In addition, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
 
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS
 
For information regarding our risk factors, please refer to Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. We do not believe that there have been any material changes in the risk factors disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as follows:
 
If our shares were to be delisted, our stock price might decline further and we might be unable to raise additional capital.
 
Our stock price is currently below $1.00, and has been so for more than 30 consecutive business days. One of the continued listing standards for our stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market (both the Nasdaq Global Market, on which our stock is currently listed, and the Nasdaq Capital Market) is the maintenance of a $1.00 bid price. On August 2, 2012, Nasdaq notified us of our failure to meet the continued listing standards and that we have 180 calendar days, until January 29, 2013, to correct such failure or be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market. Although we would have the opportunity to appeal any potential delisting, there can be no assurances that this appeal would be resolved favorably. As a result, there can be no assurance that our common stock will remain listed on the Nasdaq Global Market.
 
If our common stock were to be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market, we might apply to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market if we then met the initial listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market (other than the $1.00 minimum bid standard). If we were to move to the Nasdaq Capital Market, current Nasdaq regulations would give us the opportunity to obtain an additional 180-day grace period, until July 28, 2013, if we meet certain net income, stockholders’ equity or market capitalization criteria; if at the end of that period we had not yet achieved compliance with the minimum bid price rule, we would be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market. Although we would have the opportunity to appeal any potential delisting, there can be no assurances that this appeal would be resolved favorably. In addition, we may be unable to satisfy the other continued listing requirements. As a result, there can be no assurance that our common stock will remain listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
 
While our stock would continue to trade on the over-the-counter bulletin board following any delisting from the Nasdaq, any such delisting of our common stock could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our common stock. Trading volume of over-the-counter bulletin board stocks has been historically lower and more volatile than stocks traded on an exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market. As a result, holders of our securities could find it more difficult to sell their securities. Also, if in the future we were to determine that we need to seek additional equity capital, it could have an adverse effect on our ability to raise capital in the public equity markets.
 
In addition, if we fail to maintain Nasdaq listing for our securities, and no other exclusion from the definition of a “penny stock” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is available, then any broker engaging in a transaction in our securities would be required to provide any customer with a risk disclosure document, disclosure of market quotations, if any, disclosure of the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market values of our securities held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotation and compensation information must be provided prior to effecting the transaction and must be contained on the customer’s confirmation. If brokers become subject to the “penny stock” rules when engaging in transactions in our securities, they would become less willing to engage in transactions, thereby making it more difficult for our stockholders to dispose of their shares.
