Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our fiscal year ends on the last day of February and is identified as the fiscal year for the calendar year in which it ends. For example, the fiscal year that ends February 28, 2006 is referred to as fiscal 2006.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Table of Contents

Total comprehensive income for the quarter ended May 31, 2005 was $2,071,090 consisting of net income of $2,132,254 and net changes in accumulated other comprehensive income of ($61,164).

Prior to March 1, 2006, we accounted for stock options granted to our employees and directors under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion 25,” Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB statement No. 123, “ Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” For our stock options, no stock based compensation expense was recognized in our financial statements prior to March 1, 2006, as all stock options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant. Effective March 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment,” using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, compensation cost recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 includes compensation cost of $39,700 for share based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, February 28, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123.

We also began granting stock appreciation rights, or SARs, in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as part of our stock-based compensation plans. The SAR’s granted in fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2006 were to be settled in cash. Prior to March 1, 2006, we accounted for these SARs grants under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, which required expense to be recognized equal to the amount by which the quoted market value exceeded the original grant price on a mark-to-market basis. Therefore, we recognized $757,000 of compensation expense prior to February 28, 2006. On March 1, 2006, as required under the provisions of Statement 123R, those SARs granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, February 28, 2006 were recorded at their fair value estimated in accordance of 123R, and a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle was recorded in the amount of $85,300 net of tax. Additional compensation expense for these SARs in the amount of $103,000 was recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 based on their fair value in accordance with 123R.

As a result of adopting Statement No. 123R on March 1, 2006, our income before taxes and net income for the first quarter ended May 31, 2006, are $170,300 and $106,900 lower, respectively, than if we had continued to account for share-based compensation under Opinion No. 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the first quarter would have been $.74 and $.73, respectively, if we had not adopted Statement 123R, compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $.72 and $.71, respectively.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement No. 123R to options and SARs granted under our stock-based compensation plans in all periods presented. For the purpose of this pro forma disclosure, the value is estimated using a Black-Sholes option-pricing formula and amortized to expense over the option’s vesting periods.

A reserve has been established to provide for the estimated future cost of warranties on a portion of the Company’s delivered products and is classified within accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Management periodically reviews the reserves and makes adjustments accordingly. Warranties cover such factors as non-conformance to specifications and defects in material and workmanship. The following table shows changes in the warranty reserves since the end of fiscal 2005:

On May 25, 2006, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which replaced our Amended and Restated Revolving and Term Credit Agreement dated as of November 1, 2001.

The Credit Agreement provides for a $50 million revolving line of credit with one lender, Bank of America, N.A., maturing on May 25, 2011. This is an unsecured revolving credit facility to be used to refinance current outstanding borrowings, provide for working capital needs, capital improvements, future acquisitions, and letter of credit needs. At May 31, 2006, we had $18.1 million borrowed against the revolving credit facility and letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $5.7 million, which left approximately $26.2 million of additional credit available under the revolving credit facility.

The Credit Agreement provides for various financial covenants consisting of a) Minimum Consolidated Net Worth – maintain on a consolidated basis net worth equal to at least the sum of $69.8 million, representing 80% of net worth at February 28, 2006 plus 75% of future net income, b) Maximum Leverage Ratio- maintain on a consolidated basis a Leverage Ratio not to exceed 3.0:1.0, c) Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio- maintain on a consolidated basis a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.5:1.0 and d) Capital Expenditures- not to make Capital Expenditures on a consolidated basis in an amount in excess of $10 million during any fiscal year.

Table of Contents

The Credit Agreement provides for an applicable margin ranging from .75% to 1.25% over the Eurodollar Rate and Commitment Fees ranging from .175% to .25% depending on our Leverage Ratio (as defined). The applicable margin was .75% at May 31, 2006. The variable interest rate including the applicable margin was 5.93% as of May 31, 2006.

In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, Inventory Costs. This Statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing”, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The Company adopted this FASB on March 1, 2006 with no impact from the adoption.

In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, which replaced APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements, and provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. SFAS No. 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principles and requires retrospective application (a term defined by the statement) to prior periods’ financial statements, unless it is impracticable to determine the effect of a change. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement that do not include specific transition provisions. In addition, SFAS No. 154 redefines restatement as the revising of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of errors. The statement is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are generally identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “should,” “may,” “believe,” and terms with similar meanings. Although we believe that the current views and expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, those views and expectations, and the related statements, are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are not under our control. Those risks, uncertainties, and other factors could cause the actual results to differ materially from these in the forward-looking statements. Those risks, uncertainties, and factors include, but are not limited to: the level of customer demand for and response to products and services offered by the Company, including demand by the power generation markets, electrical transmission and distribution markets, the general industrial market, and the hot dip galvanizing markets; raw material and utility costs, including cost of zinc and natural gas which are used in the hot dip galvanizing process; changes in economic conditions of the various markets we serve, foreign and domestic; customer requested delays of shipments; acquisition opportunities, adequacy of financing and availability of experienced management employees to implement our growth strategy. We expressly disclaim any obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect any change in our views or expectations. We can give no assurances that such forward-looking statements will prove to be correct.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with management’s discussion and analysis contained in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We have two operating segments as defined on page 11 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended February 28, 2006. Management believes that the most meaningful analysis of our results of operations is to analyze our performance by segment. We use revenue by segment and segment operating income to evaluate our segments. Segment operating income consists of net sales less cost of sales, specifically identifiable selling, general and administrative expenses, and other (income) expense items that are specifically identifiable to a segment. The other (income) expense items included in segment operating income are generally insignificant. For a reconciliation of segment operating income to pretax income, see Note 6 to our unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements.

Revenues

Our backlog was $92.1 million as of May 31, 2006, as compared to $73.7 million at February 28, 2006. Backlog improved 42% from the $65 million reported as of May 31, 2005. Our book-to-ship ratio was 1.35 to 1 for the first quarter ended May 31, 2006 as compared to 1.01 to 1 for the same period in the prior year. Incoming orders increased 57% over the same period of a year ago, and compare favorably to incoming orders in fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, reflecting a 73% increase. The increase in incoming orders during the first quarter of fiscal 2007 over the same quarter in fiscal 2006 was primarily due to a large international order in the amount of $16.7 million for our high voltage equipment. Orders included in the backlog are represented by contracts and purchase orders that we believe to be firm. The following table reflects our bookings and shipments on a quarterly basis for the three-month period ending May 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006.

Backlog Table

The following table reflects the breakdown of revenue by segment:

For the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, consolidated net revenues were $52.5 million, a 17% increase as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006. For the quarter ended May 31, 2006, the Electrical and Industrial Products Segment contributed 60% of the Company’s revenues and the Galvanizing Services Segment accounted for the remaining 40% of the combined revenues. The Electrical and Industrial Products Segment contributed 64% of the Company’s revenues and the Galvanizing Services Segment accounted for the remaining 36% of the combined revenues for the three month period ended May 31, 2005.

Revenues for the Electrical and Industrial Products Segment increased $2.7 million or 9% for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006. The increased revenues were generated from continued strong market demand, primarily from the high voltage transmission and petroleum markets.

Table of Contents

Revenues in the Galvanizing Services Segment increased $5 million or 31% for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006. Revenues for the first quarter were significantly impacted by pricing actions required to offset escalating zinc cost. Of the 31% increase in revenues, 7% was attributable to volume and 24% attributable to price. The increased volumes were due to improved geographical markets, primarily small capital projects, in which our facilities are located and the resurgence in galvanizing for the telecommunication and transmission pole markets. Historically, revenues for this segment have followed closely the condition of the industrial sector of the general economy.

Segment Operating Income

The following table reflects the breakdown of total operating income by segment:

Our total operating income increased 81% for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, to $10.6 million as compared to $5.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2006.

Segment operating income in the Electrical and Industrial Products Segment increased 95% for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, to $4.1 million as compared to $2.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. Operating margins were 13% as compared to 7.3% for the same period in fiscal 2006. We have seen improvements in the markets we serve, which allowed us to increase pricing. We continue our emphasis on booking of business at specific targeted margin levels and pursuing pricing actions that will recover the significant increases in the prices of steel, aluminum and copper that we have incurred over the past two years. We continue to focus and emphasize cost escalation recovery through pricing actions, expansion of domestic and international served markets, and new product opportunities to further enhance our strategic position.

In the Galvanizing Services Segment, operating income increased 74% for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, to $6.5 million as compared to $3.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. Operating margins improved to 31% for the three-month period ended as compared to 23% for the same period in fiscal 2006. The increased operating income and margins are reflective of improved market conditions and excellent price realization required to offset the increasing cost of zinc. Our results for this segment reflect our strategy to sustain margins during this period of extreme volatility in the cost of zinc. Due to our First In First Out (“FIFO”) cost basis on zinc inventories, the higher cost for zinc purchased in the first quarter will not be recognized until subsequent quarters, so we do not believe the margins expressed in terms of percent of sales are sustainable for the balance of the year. In addition, operating income and margins benefited from insurance proceeds in the amount of $412,000 related to Hurricane Katrina. The carrying value of these affected assets was written off during fiscal 2006, when the damage was incurred.

General Corporate Expenses

General corporate expenses, (see Note 6 to consolidated condensed financial statements) not specifically identifiable to a segment, for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, were $3.5 million compared to $1.9 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. As a percentage of sales, General Corporate expenses were 6.6% for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, as compared to 4.3% for the same period in fiscal 2006. General Corporate expenses were higher due to increased compensation and employee profit sharing expense. The increase in compensation expense related primarily to our stock appreciation rights and the adoption of 123R during the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Our employee profit sharing program, which covers substantially all our employees, was reinstated for fiscal 2007 to enhance our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel.

Other (Income) Expense

For the three-month period ending May 31, 2006, the amounts in other (income) expense not specifically identifiable with a segment (see Note 6 to consolidated financial statements) were insignificant.

Interest

Net interest expense for the three-month periods ended May 31, 2006, decreased 12% in fiscal 2006 to $388,000. Interest expense for the quarter included $111,000 which was written-off for unamortized loan fees associated with our term loan that was terminated as part of new bank agreement. As of May 31, 2006, we had outstanding bank debt of $18.1 million, a decrease of $11.4 million, as compared to $29.5 million at the end of the same period in fiscal 2006. Our long-term debt to equity ratio improved to .20 to 1 at May 31, 2006, as compared to .31 to 1 for the same period in fiscal 2006.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes reflects an effective tax rate of 37.25% for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, as compared to an effective tax rate of 38% for the same period in fiscal 2006.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have historically met our liquidity and capital needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and bank borrowings. Our cash requirements are generally for operating activities, capital improvements, debt repayment, and acquisitions. We believe that working capital, borrowing capabilities, and funds generated from operations should be sufficient to finance anticipated operational activities, capital improvements, scheduled debt payments and possible future acquisitions.

Net cash provided by operations was $4 million for the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, as compared to $1.8 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Net cash provided by operations for the quarter ended May 31, 2006, was generated from $4.1 million in net income, $1.7 million in depreciation and amortization of intangibles and debt issue costs, and net changes in operating assets and liabilities and other adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash of a negative $1.8 million. Positive cash flow was recognized due to decreased revenues in excess of billings, prepaid balances and other assets in the amount of $1.4 million, $.3 million and $.1 million, respectively, as well as from increased accrued liabilities and accounts payable balances in the amount of $2.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively. These positive cash flow items were offset by increases in inventories and accounts receivable in the amount of $4.9 million and $3 million, respectively. The increase in inventory related primarily to increased zinc inventories in the amount of $3.2 million due to higher priced zinc being purchased as compared to the price of zinc being consumed. Due to increased business levels and higher raw material cost in both segments of our business, working capital increased 29% to $36.1 million as compared to $27.9 million at February 28, 2006.

Table of Contents

For the three-month period ended May 31, 2006, cash flow from operations was used to make capital improvements of $2 million and to reduce debt by $1.7 million. We received proceeds from the sale of, or insurance settlement on, property and equipment in the amount of $.4 million and proceeds from the exercise of stock options in the amount of $.6 million.

On May 25, 2006, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which replaced our Amended and Restated Revolving and Term Credit Agreement dated as of November 2001.

The Credit Agreement provides for a $50 million revolving line of credit with one lender, Bank of America, N.A., maturing on May 25, 2011. This is an unsecured revolving credit facility to be used to refinance current outstanding borrowings, provide for working capital needs, capital improvements, future acquisitions, and letter of credit needs. At May 31, 2006, we had $18.1 million borrowed against the revolving credit facility and letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $5.7 million, which left approximately $26.2 million of additional credit available under the revolving credit facility.

The Credit Agreement provides for various financial covenants consisting of a) Minimum Consolidated Net Worth – maintain on a consolidated basis net worth equal to at least the sum of $69.8 million, representing 80% of net worth at February 28, 2006 plus 75% of future net income, b) Maximum Leverage Ratio- maintain on a consolidated basis a Leverage Ratio not to exceed 3.0:1.0, c) Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio- maintain on a consolidated basis a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.5:1.0 and d) Capital Expenditures- not to make Capital Expenditures on a consolidated basis in an amount in excess of $10 million during any fiscal year.

The Credit Agreement provides for an applicable margin ranging from .75% to 1.25% over the Eurodollar Rate and Commitment Fees ranging from .175% to .25% depending on our Leverage Ratio (as defined). The applicable margin was .75% at May 31, 2006. The variable interest rate including the applicable margin was 5.93% as of May 31, 2006.

We utilize interest rate protection agreements to moderate the effects of increases, if any, in interest rates by modifying the characteristics of interest obligations on long-term debt from a variable rate to a fixed rate. Presently, we have one outstanding interest rate swap. On March 31, 2005, we entered into an interest rate protection agreement (the “2005 Swap Agreement”) which matures in March 2008, whereby we pay a fixed rate of 5.70% in exchange for a variable 30-day LIBOR rate plus .75% (5.84% at May 31, 2006). At May 31, 2006, the remaining notional amount is $11,000,000. Prior to May 2006, this swap was treated as a cash flow hedge of our variable interest rate exposure. However, we refinanced our credit agreement in May 2006 and chose to cease the hedge designation for the 2005 Swap Agreement while not terminating the swap agreement. Since that time, we began recognizing changes in fair value of this hedge directly into earnings, while amortizing the pretax amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income as additional interest expense. For the three-months ended May 31, 2006, we amortized $4,000 of interest income and recognized mark-to-market gains of $10,000 for subsequent changes in the fair value of this swap. At May 31, 2006, the fair value of the 2005 Swap Agreement was a Asset of $91,000, and a gain of

$50,000, net of tax, remains in accumulated other comprehensive income to be amortized as additional interest expense. Given the maturity date of this interest rate swap, all amounts related to accumulated other comprehensive income are expected to flow through earnings by the end March 31, 2008.

OFF BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED MATTERS

Other than operating leases discussed below, there are no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations), or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that have, or may have, a material effect on financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources of the Company.

CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS

Leases

We lease various facilities under non-cancelable operating leases with an initial term in excess of one year. The future minimum payments required under these operating leases as of May 31, 2006 are summarized in the table below.

Commodity pricing

We manage our exposure to commodity prices through various methods. In the Galvanizing Services Segment, we utilize contracts with our zinc suppliers that include protective caps to guard against rising commodity prices. We also secure firm pricing for natural gas supplies with individual utilities when possible. There is no contracted volume purchase commitments associated with the natural gas or zinc agreements. Management believes these contractual agreements ensure adequate supplies and partially offset exposure to commodity price swings.

In the Electrical and Industrial Products Segment, we have exposure to commodity pricing for copper, aluminum, and steel. Because the Electrical and Industrial Products Segment does not commit contractually to minimum volumes, increases in price for these items are normally managed through escalation clauses in our customer’s contracts, although during competitive market conditions these escalation clauses may be difficult to obtain.

We have no contracted volume commitments for any other commodities.

Other

At May 31, 2006, we had outstanding letters of credit in the amount of $5.7 million. These letters of credit are issued in lieu of performance and bid bonds, and to a portion of our customers to cover any potential warranty costs that the customer might incur. In addition, as of May 31, 2006, a warranty reserve in the amount of $1.1 million has been established to offset any future warranty claims.

The following summarizes our operating leases, and long-term debt and interest expense for the next five years.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported value of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other factors that we believe reasonable under the circumstances, and form the basis for our conclusions. We continually evaluate the information used to make these estimates as business and economic conditions change. Accounting policies and estimates considered most critical are allowances for doubtful accounts, accruals for contingent liabilities, revenue recognition and impairment of long-lived assets, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The development and selection of the critical accounting policies and the related disclosures below have been reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. More information regarding significant accounting policies can be found in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2006.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts- The carrying value of our accounts receivable is continually evaluated based on the likelihood of collection. An allowance is maintained for estimated losses resulting from our customer’s inability to make required payments. The allowance is determined by historical experience of uncollected accounts, the level of past due accounts, overall level of outstanding accounts receivable, information about specific customers with respect to their inability to make payments and future expectations of conditions that might impact the collectibility of accounts receivable. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Accruals for Contingent Liabilities- The amounts we record for estimated claims, such as self insurance programs, warranty and other contingent liabilities, requires us to make judgments regarding the amount of expenses that will ultimately be incurred. We use past history and experience, as well as other specific circumstances surrounding these claims in evaluating the amount of liability that should be recorded. Actual results may be different than we estimate.

Revenue Recognition – We recognize revenue for the Galvanizing Services Segment upon completion of the galvanizing process performed on the customers’ material or shipment of this material. Revenue is recognized in the Electrical and Industrial Products Segment upon transfer of title and risk to customers, or based upon the percentage of completion method of accounting for electrical products built to customer specifications under long term contracts. Customer advanced payments presented in the balance sheet arises from advanced payments received from our customers prior to shipment of the product and are not related to revenue recognized under the percentage of completion method. The extent of progress for revenue recognized using the percentage of completion method is measured by the ratio of contract costs incurred to date to the estimated total contract costs at completion. Contract costs include direct labor and material, and certain indirect costs. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are able to be determined. The assumptions made in determining the estimated cost could differ from actual performance resulting in a different outcome for profits or losses than anticipated.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, Identifiable Intangible Assets and Goodwill– We record impairment losses on long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets, when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted projected cash flows associated with those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets. In those situations, impairment losses on long-lived assets are measured based on the excess of the carrying amount over the asset’s fair value, generally determined based upon discounted estimates of future cash flows. A significant change in events, circumstances or projected cash flows could result in an impairment of long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets.

16

Table of Contents

An annual impairment test of goodwill is performed in the fourth quarter of each year. The test is calculated using the anticipated future cash flows from our operating segments. Based on the present value of the future cash flow, we will determine whether impairment may exist. A significant change in projected cash flows or cost of capital for future years could result in an impairment of goodwill in future years.

Variables impacting future cash flows include, but are not limited to, the level of customer demand for and response to products and services we offer to the power generation market, the electrical transmission and distribution markets, the general industrial market and the hot dip galvanizing market; changes in economic conditions of these various markets; raw material and natural gas costs; and availability of experienced labor and management to implement our growth strategies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk relating to our operations results primarily from changes in interest rates and commodity prices. We have only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and we are not a party to any leveraged derivatives.

We manage our exposure to changes in interest rates through the use of variable rate debt and interest rate protection agreements.

We manage our exposure to commodity prices through various methods. In the Galvanizing Services Segment, we utilize agreements with zinc suppliers that include protective caps to guard against rising commodity prices. We believe these agreements ensure adequate supplies and partially offset exposure to commodity price swings.

In the Electrical and Industrial Product Segment, we have exposure to commodity pricing for copper, aluminum, and steel. Because the Electrical and Industrial Products Segment does not commit contractually to minimum volumes, increases in the price for these items are normally managed through escalation clauses attached to our customer’s contracts, although during difficult market conditions these escalation clauses may be difficult to obtain.

Management does not believe there has been a material change in the nature of our commodity or interest rate commitments or risks since February 28, 2006.

We do not believe that a hypothetical change of 10% of the interest rate currently in effect or a change of 10% of commodity prices would have a significantly adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows as long as we are able to pass along the increases in commodity prices to our customers. To date, we have been successful in passing along the rising cost of zinc without an adverse effect on our results of operations. However, there can be no assurance that either interest rates or commodity prices will not change in excess of the 10% hypothetical amount, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows if we are unable to pass along these increase to our customers.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of

that date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (a) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure and (b) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

While we believe that its existing disclosure controls and procedures have been effective to accomplish their objectives, we intend to continue to examine, refine and document our disclosure controls and procedures and to monitor ongoing developments in this area. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company has been detected.
