HEICO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of HEICO Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “HEICO,” or the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012. The October 31, 2012 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of shareholders' equity and statements of cash flows for such interim periods presented. The results of operations for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which requires the presentation of total comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of shareholders’ equity. The Company adopted ASU 2011-05 in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and elected to make the presentation in two separate, but consecutive statements, which had no impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” which is intended to reduce the complexity and cost of performing a quantitative test for impairment of goodwill by permitting an entity the option to perform a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment in order to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The update also improves previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, or in

Index

fiscal 2013 for HEICO's annual impairment test. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which requires disclosure about changes in and amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012, or in fiscal 2014 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity,” which clarifies the applicable guidance for the release of any cumulative translation adjustments into net earnings. ASU 2013-05 specifies that the entire amount of cumulative translation adjustments should be released into earnings when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a consolidated foreign entity and the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013, or in fiscal 2015 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

2. ACQUISITIONS

Reinhold Acquisition

On May 31, 2013, the Company, through its HEICO Flight Support Corp. subsidiary, acquired Reinhold Industries, Inc. ("Reinhold") through the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Reinhold's parent company for approximately $133.0 million, net of $8.0 million of cash acquired, in a transaction carried out by means of a merger. The purchase price of this acquisition was paid in cash, principally using proceeds from the Company’s revolving credit facility. Reinhold is a leading manufacturer of advanced niche components and complex composite assemblies for commercial aviation, defense and space applications. This acquisition is consistent with HEICO’s practice of acquiring outstanding, niche designers and manufacturers

Index

of critical components in the aerospace and defense industries and will further enable the Company to broaden its product offerings, technologies and customer base.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price of Reinhold to the estimated fair values of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):



Assets acquired:
Goodwill		$76,792
Identifiable intangible assets	66,500
Inventories	10,753
Accounts receivable	8,830
Property, plant and equipment	7,994
Other assets	1,342
Total assets acquired, excluding cash		$172,211

Liabilities assumed:
Deferred income taxes		$25,625
Accrued expenses	6,994
Accounts payable	2,923
Other liabilities	3,697
Total liabilities assumed		$39,239
Net assets acquired, excluding cash		$132,972

The allocation of the purchase price to the tangible and identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is preliminary until the Company obtains final information regarding their fair values. The primary items that generated the goodwill recognized were the premiums paid by the Company for the future earnings potential of Reinhold and the value of its assembled workforce that do not qualify for separate recognition. The operating results of Reinhold were included in the Company’s results of operations from the effective acquisition date. The Company’s consolidated net sales and net income attributable to HEICO for the nine and three months ended July 31, 2013, includes approximately $12.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, from the acquisition of Reinhold.

The following table presents unaudited pro forma financial information for the nine and three months ended July 31, 2012 as if the acquisition of Reinhold had occurred as of November 1, 2011 (in thousands):



	Nine months ended		Three months ended
	July 31, 2012		July 31, 2012
Net sales		$695,641		$240,940
Net income from consolidated operations		$79,579		$29,963
Net income attributable to HEICO		$63,563		$24,414
Net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders:
Basic		$1.21		$.46
Diluted		$1.19		$.46

Index

The pro forma financial information is presented for comparative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place as of November 1, 2011. The unaudited pro forma financial information includes adjustments to historical amounts such as additional amortization expense related to intangible assets acquired, increased interest expense associated with borrowings to finance the acquisition and inventory purchase accounting adjustments charged to cost of sales as the inventory is sold. Had the acquisition been consummated as of November 1, 2011, net sales, net income from consolidated operations, net income attributable to HEICO, and basic and diluted net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders on a pro forma basis for the nine and three months ended July 31, 2013 would not have been materially different than the reported amounts.

Additional Purchase Consideration

Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreements related to certain fiscal 2012 acquisitions, the Company was obligated to pay additional purchase consideration representing the difference between the actual net assets of the acquired entity as of the acquisition date and the amount estimated in the purchase agreement. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company paid $1.2 million of such additional purchase consideration, which was accrued as of October 31, 2012.

Accrued Customer Rebates and Credits

The aggregate amount of accrued customer rebates and credits included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $14.5 million and $10.8 million as of July 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively. The total customer rebates and credits deducted within net sales for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 was $6.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively. The total customer rebates and credits deducted within net sales for the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 was $2.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The increase in customer rebates and credits is principally due to the fact that the first nine months and third quarter of fiscal 2012 reflected a reduction in the net sales volume of certain customers eligible for rebates as well as a reduction in the associated rebate percentages.

4. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company has two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”) and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”). Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by operating segment for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):



	Segment					Consolidated Totals
	FSG			ETG		Consolidated Totals
Balances as of October 31, 2012		$203,539			$338,575		$542,114

Foreign currency translation adjustments	—			652		652
Balances as of July 31, 2013		$280,222			$339,349		$619,571

The goodwill acquired principally pertains to the current year acquisition described in Note 2, Acquisitions, and represents the residual value after the allocation of the total consideration to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The adjustments to goodwill during fiscal 2013 represent immaterial measurement period adjustments to the purchase price allocations of certain fiscal 2012 acquisitions. The Company

		$253,301		($46,203	)		$207,098		$187,182		($32,858	)		$154,324

The increase in the gross carrying amount of customer relationships, intellectual property and non-amortizing trade names as of July 31, 2013 compared to October 31, 2012 principally relates to such intangible assets recognized in connection with the acquisition made during fiscal 2013 (see Note 2, Acquisitions). The amortization period of the customer relationships and intellectual property acquired is 10 years and 12 years, respectively.

Amortization expense related to intangible assets for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 was $14.3 million and $11.7 million, respectively. Amortization expense related to intangible assets for the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 was $5.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively. Amortization expense related to intangible assets for the remainder of fiscal 2013 is estimated to be $5.9 million. Amortization expense for each of the next five fiscal years and thereafter is estimated to be $22.8 million in fiscal 2014, $21.2 million in fiscal 2015, $19.6 million in fiscal 2016, $18.9 million in fiscal 2017, $17.2 million in fiscal 2018 and $54.2 million thereafter.

5. LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consists of the following (in thousands):



	July 31, 2013			October 31, 2012
Borrowings under revolving credit facility		$315,000			$127,000
Capital leases and notes payable	4,539			4,820

Less: Current maturities of long-term debt	(663		)	(626		)
		$318,876			$131,194

As of July 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, the weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility was 1.3% and 1.2%, respectively. The revolving credit facility contains both financial and non-financial covenants. As of July 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.

In December 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of its revolving credit facility by one year to December 2017. The Company also amended certain covenants contained within the revolving credit facility agreement to accommodate payment of a special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012. See Note 8, Shareholders' Equity, for additional information. Costs aggregating $.6 million were incurred in connection with the amendments and are included in other assets within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and are being amortized to selling, general and administrative expenses within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations over the remaining term of the revolving credit facility.

6. INCOME TAXES

As of July 31, 2013, the Company’s liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions was $2.0 million of which $1.3 million would decrease the Company’s income tax expense and effective income tax rate if the tax benefits were recognized. A reconciliation of the activity related to the liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 is as follows (in thousands):



Balance as of October 31, 2012		$2,527
Settlements	(570		)
Decreases related to prior year tax positions	(151		)
Lapse of statutes of limitations	(65		)
Increases related to current year tax positions	224
Balance as of July 31, 2013		$1,965

The settlements and decreases related to prior year tax positions pertain to a state income tax position regarding nexus that was originally recognized in fiscal 2012 and resolved through

Index

the filing of state income tax returns in fiscal 2013. The accrual of interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits was not material for the nine months ended July 31, 2013. Further, the Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to materially change in the next twelve months.

In January 2013, Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code, "Credit for Increasing Research Activities," was retroactively extended to cover a two-year period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. As a result, an income tax credit for qualified research and development activities for the last ten months of fiscal 2012 was recognized by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The tax credit, net of expenses, increased net income attributable to HEICO by approximately $1.0 million.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company filed its fiscal 2012 U.S. federal and state tax returns. As a result, the Company recognized an aggregate benefit, net of expenses, which increased net income attributable to HEICO by approximately $1.6 million from higher research and development tax credits and a credit for foreign taxes paid on earnings that were repatriated by one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries.

The Company's effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 decreased to 29.5% from 33.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The decrease is partially due to the previously mentioned income tax credit for qualified research and development activities for the last ten months of fiscal 2012 that was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The decrease in the effective tax rate was also attributed to an income tax deduction under Section 404(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock and the benefit from higher tax-exempt unrealized gains in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the HEICO Corporation Leadership Compensation Plan (the "LCP"). Furthermore, the Company recognized an additional tax benefit upon the filing of its fiscal 2012 U.S. federal income tax return in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 associated with the previously mentioned credit for foreign taxes paid on earnings that were repatriated by one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries that also contributed to the lower effective tax rate.

The Company's effective tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased to 26.6% from 31.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease is partially due to the aforementioned benefit associated with a credit for foreign taxes paid on earnings that were repatriated by one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries. The decrease in the effective tax rate was also attributed to the previously mentioned benefit from higher tax-exempt unrealized gains in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the LCP and for the income tax deduction for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock.

Index

The Company maintains two non-qualified deferred compensation plans. The assets of the HEICO Corporation Leadership Compensation Plan (the “LCP”) represent cash surrender values of life insurance policies, which derive their fair values from investments in mutual funds that are managed by an insurance company and are classified within Level 2 and valued using a market approach. The assets of the Company’s other deferred compensation plan are invested in equity securities, mutual funds and money market funds that are classified within Level 1. The assets of both plans are held within irrevocable trusts and classified within other assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and have an aggregate value of $54.2 million as of July 31, 2013 and $41.3 million as of October 31, 2012, of which the LCP related assets were $49.6 million and $37.1 million as of July 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively. The related liabilities of the two deferred compensation plans are included within other long-term liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and have an aggregate value of $53.6 million as of July 31, 2013 and $40.8 million as of October 31, 2012, of which the LCP related liability was $49.0 million and $36.5 million as of July 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively.

As part of the agreement to acquire a subsidiary by the ETG in fiscal 2012, the Company may be obligated to pay contingent consideration of up to $12.9 million in aggregate should the acquired entity meet certain earnings objectives during each of the next four years following the first anniversary date of the acquisition. The $9.1 million estimated fair value of the contingent consideration as of July 31, 2013 is classified within Level 3 and was determined using a probability-based scenario analysis approach. Under this method, a set of discrete potential future subsidiary earnings was determined using internal estimates based on various revenue growth rate assumptions for each scenario that ranged from a compound annual growth rate of negative 4% to positive 20%. A probability of likelihood was assigned to each discrete potential future earnings estimate and the resultant contingent consideration was calculated. The resulting probability-weighted contingent consideration amounts were discounted using a weighted average discount rate of 3.0% reflecting the credit risk of a market participant. Significant changes to either the revenue growth rates, related earnings or the discount rate could result in a material change to the amount of contingent consideration accrued and such changes will be recorded in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. The $1.2 million decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration since October 31, 2012 is principally attributed to lower year one actual earnings and year two forecasted earnings of the subsidiary due to reductions in United States defense spending and was recorded to selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of July 31, 2013, the estimated amount of such contingent consideration to be paid within the next twelve months of $1.4 million is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and the remaining $7.7 million is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Index

Changes in the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):

The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during the nine months ended July 31, 2013.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value as of July 31, 2013 due to the relatively short maturity of the respective instruments. The carrying amount of long-term debt approximates fair value due to its variable interest rates.

8. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

During the nine months ended July 31, 2013, the Company repurchased an aggregate 29,083 shares of Common Stock at a total cost of $1.3 million and an aggregate 31,972 shares of Class A Common Stock at a total cost of $1.1 million. The transactions occurred as settlement for employee taxes due pertaining to exercises of non-qualified stock options and did not impact the number of shares authorized for future purchase under the Company’s share repurchase program.

In December 2012, the Company paid a special and extraordinary $2.14 per share cash dividend on both classes of HEICO common stock as well as a regular semi-annual $.06 per share cash dividend that was accelerated from January 2013. The dividends, which aggregated $116.6 million, were funded from borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility.

9. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLAN

In connection with the acquisition of Reinhold (see Note 2, Acquisitions), the Company assumed Reinhold's frozen qualified defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan"). The Plan's benefits are based on employee compensation and years of service. However, since the Plan was closed to new participants effective December 31, 2004, the accrued benefit for Plan participants was fixed as of the date of acquisition. The acquired projected benefit obligation and plan assets were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date.

Index

Changes in the Plan's projected benefit obligation and plan assets since the acquisition are as follows (in thousands):



Change in projected benefit obligation:
Acquired projected benefit obligation		$14,539
Interest cost	95
Benefits paid	(160		)
Projected benefit obligation as of July 31, 2013		$14,474

The Company has not made any contributions to the Plan since the acquisition and does not expect to be required to make contributions to the Plan during the remainder of fiscal 2013. Estimated future benefit payments for the remainder of fiscal 2013 are $.2 million. Estimated future benefit payments to be made from fiscal 2014 to fiscal 2023 are as follows (in thousands):



Year ending October 31,

Index

As of July 31, 2013, 80% of the Plan's assets were invested in fixed-income securities and 20% were invested in equity securities, which match the Plan's current investment target allocations. The Company is currently evaluating the Plan's asset allocation policy which was established prior to the acquisition. The Company's objective is to maximize long-term investment return while maintaining an acceptable level of risk that is accomplished through broad diversification of the Plan's assets.

10. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

Cost of sales for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 includes approximately $23.5 million and $22.4 million, respectively, of new product research and development expenses. Cost of sales for the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 includes approximately $8.5 million and $7.5 million, respectively, of new product research and development expenses.

11. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

The holders of equity interests in certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have rights (“Put Rights”) that may be exercised on varying dates causing the Company to purchase their equity interests through fiscal 2022. The Put Rights, all of which relate either to common shares or membership interests in limited liability companies, provide that the cash consideration to be paid for their equity interests (the “Redemption Amount”) be at fair value or at a formula that management intended to reasonably approximate fair value based solely on a multiple of future earnings over a measurement period. As of July 31, 2013, management’s estimate of the aggregate Redemption Amount of all Put Rights that the Company would be required to pay is approximately $52 million. The actual Redemption Amount will likely be different. The aggregate Redemption Amount of all Put Rights was determined using probability adjusted internal estimates of future earnings of the Company’s subsidiaries with Put Rights while considering the earliest exercise date, the measurement period and any applicable fair value adjustments. The portion of the estimated Redemption Amount as of July 31, 2013 redeemable at fair value is approximately $42 million and the portion redeemable based solely on a multiple of future earnings is approximately $10 million. Adjustments to Redemption Amounts based on fair value will have no affect on net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders whereas the portion of periodic adjustments to the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests based solely on a multiple of future earnings that reflect a redemption amount in excess of fair value will affect net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders.

In December 2012, the Company, through its HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. ("HEICO Aerospace") subsidiary, acquired the remaining 13.3% interest in one of its subsidiaries. The purchase price of the redeemable noncontrolling interest acquired was paid using proceeds from the Company's revolving credit facility.

Diluted		$1.36		$1.15		$.54		$.43

Anti-dilutive stock options excluded	661		667		639		720

No portion of the adjustments to the redemption amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests of $1.3 million and ($.1) million for the nine months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $.3 million and ($.6) million for the three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, reflect a redemption amount in excess of fair value and therefore no portion of the adjustments affect basic or diluted net income per share attributable to HEICO shareholders.

Item 2.	MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates if different assumptions were used or different events ultimately transpire.

Our critical accounting policies, which require management to make judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, are described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended July 31, 2013.

Our business is comprised of two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”), consisting of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. (“HEICO Aerospace”) and HEICO Flight Support Corp. and their collective subsidiaries, and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”), consisting of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. (“HEICO Electronic”) and its subsidiaries.

Our results of operations for the nine and three months ended July 31, 2013 have been affected by the fiscal 2013 acquisition as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this quarterly report and by the fiscal 2012 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012.

Comparison of First Nine Months of Fiscal 2013 to First Nine Months of Fiscal 2012

Net Sales

Our net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 increased by 10% to a record $721.3 million, as compared to net sales of $654.9 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The increase in net sales reflects an increase of $54.9 million (a 13% increase) to a record $475.6 million within the FSG as well as an increase of $13.0 million (a 5% increase) to a record $250.2 million within the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects organic growth of approximately 7% as well as additional net sales of $23.5 million from the fiscal 2013 and 2012 acquisitions. The organic growth in the FSG principally reflects an increase in net sales from new product offerings and improving market conditions resulting in net sales increases of $27.3 million within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul services product lines and $4.0 million within our specialty products lines. The net sales increase in the ETG reflects organic growth of approximately 3% as well as additional net sales of $4.9 million from fiscal 2012 acquisitions. The organic growth in the ETG principally reflects an increase in demand for certain space products resulting in a $16.9 million increase in net sales, partially offset by a decrease in demand for some defense products resulting in an $8.7 million decrease in net sales. Sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the FSG and ETG net sales growth for the first nine months of fiscal 2013.

Gross Profit and Operating Expenses

Our consolidated gross profit margin increased to 36.7% for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 as compared to 36.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2012, reflecting a 2.1% increase in the ETG's gross profit margin, partially offset by a .3% decrease in the FSG's gross profit margin. The increase in the ETG's gross profit margin is principally attributed to increased net sales and a more favorable product mix for certain of our space products partially offset by lower net sales and a less favorable product mix for certain of our defense products. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales increased to $23.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 compared to $22.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $136.5 million and $120.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively. The increase in SG&A expenses reflects an increase of $12.9 million in general and administrative expenses principally attributed to a $5.8 million increase from the fiscal 2012 and 2013 acquired businesses and the remainder to support the higher net sales volumes including an increase in accrued performance awards based on the improved consolidated operating results. Additionally, the increase in SG&A expenses reflects an increase of $3.6 million in selling expenses principally attributed to higher sales-related commissions and other costs from the net sales growth. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 18.9% for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 as compared to 18.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2012 principally reflecting the impact from the previously mentioned increase in accrued performance awards and

Index

sales-related commissions as well as the impact associated with higher amortization expense of intangible assets recognized in connection with the recently acquired businesses.

Operating Income

Operating income for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 increased by 9% to a record $128.0 million as compared to operating income of $117.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income reflects an $8.7 million increase (an 11% increase) to a record $87.2 million in operating income of the FSG for the first nine months of fiscal 2013, up from $78.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012 and a $4.8 million increase (a 9% increase) in operating income of the ETG to a record $57.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013, up from $52.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income of the FSG was principally driven by the previously mentioned net sales growth. The increase in the operating income of the ETG reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin and net sales growth partially offset by an increase in SG&A expenses.

As a percentage of net sales, our consolidated operating income decreased to 17.7% for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 from 18.0% for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The decrease in consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales reflects a decrease in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 18.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 from 18.7% for the first nine months of fiscal 2012, partially offset by an increase in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 22.9% for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 from 22.1% for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of net sales for the FSG is principally attributed to a less favorable product mix within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul services product lines and the impact of additional amortization expense from intangible assets recognized in connection with the fiscal 2013 and 2012 acquisitions. The increase in operating income as a percentage of net sales for the ETG reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin, partially offset by an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased to $2.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013, up from $1.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The increase was principally due to a higher weighted average balance outstanding under our revolving credit facility in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 associated with recent acquisitions and borrowings made to fund an aggregate $2.20 per share cash dividend paid in December 2012.

Other Income

Other income in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 and 2012 was not material.

Index

Income Tax Expense

Our effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 decreased to 29.5% from 33.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The decrease is partially due to an income tax credit for qualified research and development activities for the last ten months of fiscal 2012 that was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 pursuant to the retroactive extension of Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code, "Credit for Increasing Research Activities," in January 2013 to cover a two-year period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. As a result, we recognized an additional $1.6 million of research and development tax credits in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in the effective tax rate was also attributed to an income tax deduction under Section 404(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock and the benefit from higher tax-exempt unrealized gains in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the HEICO Corporation Leadership Compensation Plan. Furthermore, we recognized an additional tax benefit upon the filing of our fiscal 2012 U.S. federal income tax return in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 associated with a credit for foreign taxes paid on earnings that were repatriated by one of our foreign subsidiaries that also contributed to the lower effective tax rate.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $16.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 compared to $16.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The increase for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 reflects the aggregate impact of higher earnings of FSG and ETG subsidiaries in which noncontrolling interests are held, partially offset by our purchases of certain noncontrolling interests during fiscal 2012 and 2013 resulting in lower allocations of net income to noncontrolling interests.

Net Income Attributable to HEICO

Net income attributable to HEICO increased to a record $72.6 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, for the first nine months of fiscal 2013, up from $61.4 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, for the first nine months of fiscal 2012, principally reflecting the previously mentioned increased operating income and the favorable tax benefits recognized during the first nine months of fiscal 2013.

Comparison of Third Quarter of Fiscal 2013 to Third Quarter of Fiscal 2012

Net Sales

Our net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 increased by 18% to a record $267.1 million, as compared to net sales of $226.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in net sales reflects an increase of $40.6 million (a 29% increase) to a record

Index

$181.3 million within the FSG as well as an increase of $.9 million (a 1% increase) to $87.4 million in net sales within the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects organic growth of approximately 17% as well as additional net sales of $16.1 million principally from the fiscal 2013 and 2012 acquisitions. The organic growth in the FSG principally reflects an increase in net sales from new product offerings and improving market conditions resulting in net sales increases of $21.3 million within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul services product lines and $3.2 million within our specialty products lines. The net sales increase in the ETG reflects organic growth of approximately 1% principally attributed to an increase in demand for certain space products resulting in a $5.7 million increase in net sales, partially offset by a decrease in demand for some defense products resulting in a $4.4 million decrease in net sales. Sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the FSG and ETG net sales growth for the third quarter of fiscal 2013.

Gross Profit and Operating Expenses

Our consolidated gross profit margin decreased to 36.5% for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to 37.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, reflecting a .8% decrease in the FSG's gross profit margin, partially offset by a 1.5% increase in the ETG's gross profit margin. The decrease in the FSG's gross profit margin principally reflects a less favorable product mix within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul services product lines. The increase in the ETG's gross profit margin is primarily attributed to increased net sales and a more favorable product mix for certain of our space products partially offset by lower net sales and a less favorable product mix for certain of our defense products. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales increased to $8.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $7.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2012.

SG&A expenses were $49.1 million and $41.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively. The increase in SG&A expenses is attributed to a $6.5 million increase in general and administrative expenses, of which $2.6 million pertains to the fiscal 2013 and 2012 acquisitions, and a $.8 million increase in selling expenses. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 18.4% for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 from 18.5% for the third quarter of fiscal 2012.

Operating Income

Operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 increased by 14% to a record$48.4 million as compared to operating income of $42.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income reflects a $6.2 million increase (a 24% increase) to a record $32.6 million in operating income of the FSG for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, up from $26.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 and a $.5 million increase (a 3% increase) in operating income of the ETG to $21.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, up from $21.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating income of the FSG was driven by the previously mentioned net sales growth. The increase in operating income of the ETG reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin and net sales growth partially offset by an increase in SG&A expenses.

Index

As a percentage of net sales, our consolidated operating income decreased to 18.1% for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 from 18.8% for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales reflects a decrease in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 18.0% for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 from 18.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, partially offset by an increase in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 24.6% for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, up from 24.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of net sales for the FSG is principally attributed to the previously mentioned decrease in gross profit margin and the impact of additional amortization expense from intangible assets recognized in connection with the fiscal 2013 and 2012 acquisitions. The increase in operating income as a percentage of net sales for the ETG reflects the previously mentioned increase in gross profit margin, partially offset by an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased to $1.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2013, up from $.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase was principally due to a higher weighted average balance outstanding under our revolving credit facility in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 associated with recent acquisitions and borrowings made to fund an aggregate $2.20 per share cash dividend paid in December 2012.

Other Income and Expense

Other income and expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012 was not material.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased to 26.6% from 31.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease is partially due to an additional tax benefit we recognized upon the filing of our fiscal 2012 U.S. federal income tax return in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 associated with a credit for foreign taxes paid on earnings that were repatriated by one of our foreign subsidiaries. The decrease in our effective tax rate was also attributed to the benefit from higher tax-exempt unrealized gains in the cash surrender values of life insurance policies related to the HEICO Corporation Leadership Compensation Plan and from an income tax deduction under Section 404(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for the one-time special and extraordinary cash dividend paid in December 2012 to participants of the HEICO Savings and Investment Plan holding HEICO common stock.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $5.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $5.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 reflects the aggregate impact of higher earnings of FSG and ETG subsidiaries in which

Index

noncontrolling interests are held, partially offset by our purchases of certain noncontrolling interests during fiscal 2012 and 2013 resulting in lower allocations of net income to noncontrolling interests.

Net Income Attributable to HEICO

Net income attributable to HEICO increased to a record $28.9 million, or $.54 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 from $23.1 million, or $.43 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, principally reflecting the previously mentioned increased operating income and the favorable tax benefits recognized during the third quarter of fiscal 2013.

Outlook

As we look ahead to the remainder of fiscal 2013, we remain confident in the near-term and long-term outlook for the commercial airline industry and expect increases in airline capacity and maintenance spending to yield moderate growth within the Flight Support Group for the remainder of fiscal 2013 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2012. Ongoing uncertainty surrounding the impact of government budget reductions on our defense-related products has contributed to slower growth in the Electronic Technologies Group during the first nine months of fiscal 2013. We anticipate growth in demand for our non-defense products in the Electronic Technologies Group will contribute to growth for the remainder of fiscal 2013. Based on our current economic visibility, we are increasing our estimates for fiscal 2013 year-over-year growth in net sales to 10% - 11% and growth in net income of 15% - 16%, up from our prior growth estimates of 8% - 10% in net sales and 11% - 13% in net income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal uses of cash include acquisitions, cash dividends, capital expenditures, distributions to noncontrolling interests and working capital needs. Capital expenditures in fiscal 2013 are anticipated to approximate $20 million.

In December 2012, we entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of our revolving credit facility by one year to December 2017. We also amended certain covenants contained within the revolving credit facility agreement to accommodate payment of a special and extraordinary cash dividend. In December 2012, we paid a special and extraordinary $2.14 per share cash dividend on both classes of our common stock as well as our regular semi-annual $.06 per share cash dividend that was accelerated from January 2013. The dividends, which aggregated $116.6 million, were funded from borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

We finance our activities primarily from our operating activities and financing activities, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility contains both financial and non-financial covenants. As of July 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all such covenants. As of July 31, 2013, our net debt to shareholders’ equity ratio was 44.4%, with net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) of $306.8 million.

Index

Based on our current outlook, we believe that our net cash provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $92.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 and consisted primarily of net income from consolidated operations of $88.8 million and depreciation and amortization of $25.9 million (a non-cash item), partially offset by an increase in working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) of $25.5 million. The increase in working capital was principally attributed to increases in accounts receivable and inventory as a result of net sales growth during the period. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $14.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 from $78.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is principally attributed to an $11.4 million and $3.7 million increase in net income from consolidated operations and depreciation and amortization, respectively.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $147.9 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 and related primarily to acquisitions of $134.4 million and capital expenditures totaling $13.5 million. Further details regarding acquisitions may be found in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 totaled $46.9 million and related primarily to net borrowings on our revolving credit facility of $188.0 million, partially offset by $120.4 million in cash dividends on our common stock, acquisitions of noncontrolling interests of $16.6 million and distributions to noncontrolling interests of $6.0 million.

Contractual Obligations

Except as otherwise noted below, there have not been any material changes to the amounts presented in the table of contractual obligations that was included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012.

As of July 31, 2013, we had a total of $315 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility with a maturity in fiscal 2018. The $188 million increase over the $127 million outstanding as of October 31, 2012 principally relates to aggregate borrowings of $287 million principally made to fund an acquisition in May 2013, the $2.20 total per share cash dividend paid in December 2012 and to repurchase the remaining 13.3% interest in one of our subsidiaries, net of payments made aggregating $99 million, which primarily came from cash provided by operating activities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Guarantees

We have arranged for a standby letter of credit in the amount of $1.5 million to meet the security requirement of our insurance company for potential workers’ compensation claims, which is supported by our revolving credit facility.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which requires the presentation of total comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of shareholders’ equity. We adopted ASU 2011-05 in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and elected to make the presentation in two separate, but consecutive statements, which had no impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Index

this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity,” which clarifies the applicable guidance for the release of any cumulative translation adjustments into net earnings. ASU 2013-05 specifies that the entire amount of cumulative translation adjustments should be released into earnings when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a consolidated foreign entity and the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013, or in fiscal 2015 for HEICO. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this report constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature may be forward-looking and the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate” and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement contained herein, in press releases, written statements or other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or in communications and discussions with investors and analysts in the normal course of business through meetings, phone calls and conference calls, concerning our operations, economic performance and financial condition are subject to risks, uncertainties and contingencies. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performance or achievements. Also, forward-looking statements are based upon management’s estimates of fair values and of future costs, using currently available information. Therefore, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in those statements. Factors that could cause such differences include: lower demand for commercial air travel or airline fleet changes or airline purchasing decisions, which could cause lower demand for our goods and services; product development or product specification costs and requirements, which could cause an increase to our costs to complete contracts; governmental and regulatory demands, export policies and restrictions, reductions in defense, space or homeland security spending by U.S. and/or foreign customers or competition from existing and new competitors, which could reduce our sales; our ability to introduce new products and product pricing levels, which could reduce our sales or sales growth; product development difficulties, which could increase our product development costs and delay sales; our ability to make acquisitions and achieve operating synergies from acquired businesses, customer credit risk, interest and income tax rates and economic conditions within and outside of the aviation, defense, space, medical, telecommunications and electronics industries, which

could negatively impact our costs and revenues; and defense budget cuts, which could reduce our defense-related revenue. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable law.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have not been any material changes in our assessment of HEICO’s sensitivity to market risk that was disclosed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2012.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that HEICO’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter ended July 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, HEICO's internal control over financial reporting.

On May 31, 2013, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Reinhold Industries, Inc. ("Reinhold"). See Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional information. The Company is in the process of integrating Reinhold into its overall internal control over financial reporting process.
