ANALOGIC CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

1. Basis of presentation:

Company

Analogic Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Analogic” or the “Company”) are engaged primarily in the design, manufacture and sale of high performance data acquisition, signal processing instruments to Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (“OEMs”) for use in advanced health and security systems and subsystems. One of Analogic’s subsidiaries sells products under its own name directly to niche end-user markets. Analogic’s top ten customers combined for approximately 70% and 66% of the Company’s total product and engineering revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. Investments in companies in which ownership interests range from 20 to 50 percent and the Company exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. Other investments are accounted for using the cost method.

General

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results for all interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2008, or any other interim period. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2007 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on September 27, 2007. The consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2007 contains data derived from audited financial statements.

2. Recent accounting pronouncements:

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” . SFAS No. 157 prescribes a single definition of fair value as the price that is received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS No. 157 is effective for the Company’s interim reporting period beginning August 1, 2008. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “ The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-including an amendment of SFAS No. 115” . The new statement allows entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. If a company elects the fair value option for an eligible item, changes in that item’s fair value in subsequent reporting periods must be recognized in current earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

3. Share-based payment:

The Company accounts for share-based compensation expense in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee and director services. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s or director’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

ANALOGIC CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Continued)

The following table presents share-based compensation expenses included in the Company’s unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations:


	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2007			2006
Cost of product sales	$	28		$	44
Research and product development		93			138
Selling and marketing		(44	)		56
General and administrative		321			410

Share-based compensation expense before tax		398			648
Income tax effect		122			226

Net share-based compensation expense	$	276		$	422

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Key input assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the exercise price of the award, the expected option term, the expected volatility of the Company’s Common Stock over the option’s expected term, the risk-free interest rate over the option’s expected term, and the Company’s expected annual dividend yield. The Company believes that the valuation technique and the approach utilized to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate in calculating the fair values of the Company’s outstanding stock options. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by persons who receive equity awards.

In October 2007, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors granted a target award of 87,700 shares (the “2008 - 2010 award”) of performance contingent restricted stock under the Company’s 2007 Restricted Stock Plan. These shares vest if specific pre-established levels of performance are achieved at the end of a three-year performance cycle. The performance goal for the 2008 - 2010 award is based solely on the cumulative growth of an adjusted earnings per share metric. The number of shares actually issued, which is determined at the end of a three-year performance cycle, can range from zero to 200% of the target award, or 175,400 shares, and also includes dividend equivalents. The maximum compensation expense for the 2008 - 2010 award is $10,322 based on a fair value of $58.85 per share and will be recognized over the performance period based on the number of shares that is deemed to be probable of vesting at the end of the three-year performance cycle. No compensation expense has been recognized for the 2008-2010 award through October 31, 2007, as it was not yet determinable and therefore not yet deemed probable that any shares will vest from the 2008 - 2010 award.

The weighted-average grant-date fair values of options granted were $23.92 and $20.05 per share during the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The fair value of options at date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:


	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2007		2006
Expected option term (1)	4.7 years		5.25 years
Expected volatility factor (2)	31	%	32	%
Risk-free interest rate (3)	4.71	%	4.70	%
Expected annual dividend yield	0.6	%	0.7	%

(1)	The option life was determined by estimating the expected option life, using either historical data or the simplified method under the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “ Share-Based Payment” .

(2)	The stock volatility for each grant is determined based on the review of the weighted average of historical daily price changes of the Company’s Common Stock over the most recent five years, which approximates the expected option life of the grant.

(3)	The risk-free interest rate for periods equal to the expected term of the share option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

(Continued)

The weighted-average fair values of the options granted under the employee stock purchase plan were $13.27 and $9.95 per share during the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The fair value of options at date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:


	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2007		2006
Expected option term	.5 years		.5 years
Expected volatility factor	24	%	42	%
Risk-free interest rate	5.02	%	5.31	%
Expected annual dividend yield	0.5	%	0.7	%

The following table sets forth the stock option and restricted stock transactions from July 31, 2007 to October 31, 2007:


	Stock Options Outstanding							Unvested Restricted Stock				Unvested Performance Contingent Restricted Stock
	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value		Number of Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Number of Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value

Options vested or expected to vest at October 31, 2007 (1)	267,072			47.61	3.98		2,903

Options exercisable at October 31, 2007	148,301			43.88	3.23		1,968

(1)	In addition to the vested options, the Company expects a portion of the unvested options to vest at some point in the future. Options expected to vest are calculated by applying an estimated forfeiture rate to the unvested options.

4. Asset impairment charge:

As a result of continuing losses as well as the related business outlook for its digital radiography business, the Company recorded asset impairment charges of $9,705 based upon its evaluation of the net realizability of all of the related assets at October 31, 2006. The write-down recorded in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations under the caption “Asset impairment charges”, involved a reduction of the Company’s digital radiography system business assets to their estimated fair values as a group based upon the present value of estimated future cash flows of the business. Of the $9,705 in asset impairment charges, $8,625 was recorded to cost of sales and $1,080 was recorded to operating expenses. The $8,625 asset impairment charge recorded to cost of sales included $4,144 related to inventory, $4,191 related to a software license, and $290 related to other assets. The $1,080 asset impairment charge included $696 related to capitalized software under development at the time and $384 related to other assets.

During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2007 (“fiscal year 2007”), the Company continued to consider several alternatives regarding how to reduce future losses of the digital radiography business. In August 2007, the Company notified customers of its subsidiary, ANEXA Corporation (“Anexa”), which is part of the Digital Radiography Products segment, that sales and marketing of Anexa products would cease immediately, but that Analogic would continue to service and support the products currently with customers for the foreseeable future.

7. Net income (loss) per share:

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Unvested restricted shares, although legally issued and outstanding, are not considered outstanding for purposes of calculating basic net income (loss) per share. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and, if dilutive, the weighted average number of potential shares of Common Stock, including unvested restricted stock and the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method.


	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2007		2006
Net income (loss)	$	6,388	$	(5,360	)

Net changes in operating assets and liabilities	$	(1,410	)	$	2,145

11. Taxes:

The effective tax rate for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006 was a provision of 33% and a benefit of 30%, respectively. The effective income tax rate is based upon the estimated income for the fiscal year, the composition of the income in different countries, and adjustments, if any, in the applicable quarterly periods for the potential tax consequences, benefits, resolutions of tax audits or other tax contingencies. For the three months ended October 31, 2007, the effective tax rate was reduced from the statutory tax rate of 35% by 2% primarily from lower foreign tax rates, as well as a discrete benefit of 0.4% for disqualified dispositions of incentive stock options, partially offset by an increase of 0.2% for the impact of a reduction in the German tax rate on net operating loss carryovers. For the three months ended October 31, 2006, the effective tax rate was reduced from the statutory tax rate of 35% by 5% primarily from lower foreign tax rates and larger state tax credits, partially offset by the expiration of the Federal research and experimentation credit.

The Company adopted FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “ Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ”, which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, at the beginning of fiscal year 2008. FIN No. 48 requires management to perform a two-step evaluation of all tax positions, ensuring that these tax return positions meet the “more likely than not” recognition threshold and can be measured with sufficient precision to determine the benefit recognized in the financial statements. These evaluations provide management with a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements certain tax positions that the Company has taken or expects to take on its income tax returns. As a result of the implementation of FIN No. 48, the Company recognized a net increase of $2,239 to the August 1, 2007 retained earnings balance. At the adoption date of August 1, 2007, the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits, which excludes interest and penalties discussed below, was approximately $19,730. If these benefits were recognized in a future period, the timing of which is not estimable, the net unrecognized tax benefit of approximately $19,730 would impact the Company’s effective tax rate.

Analogic and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as the income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company has concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for fiscal years through July 31, 2002. As of October 31, 2007, Analogic is under audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2003 and 2004. It is likely that the examination phase of the audit will conclude during the current fiscal year. The Company also has an unresolved state tax audit currently under appeal. It is reasonably possible that a reduction in the unrecognized tax benefits may occur as a result of one or both of the matters concluding, but quantification of an estimated range cannot be made at this time.

Within the next four fiscal quarters, the statute of limitations will close on the 2002 and 2003 tax returns filed in various foreign jurisdictions. As a result, it is reasonably expected that net unrecognized tax benefits from these foreign jurisdictions may be recognized within the next four quarters. The recognition of these tax benefits is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company accrues interest and, if applicable, penalties, for any uncertain tax positions. This interest and penalty expense will be a component of income tax expense. At the date of adoption of FIN No. 48 and at October 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $1,025 and $1,075, respectively, accrued for interest on unrecognized tax benefits.

13. Commitments and guarantees:

In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34”. FIN No. 45 requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken by issuing the guarantee. The following is a summary of agreements that the Company has determined are within the scope of FIN No. 45.

The Company’s standard OEM and supply agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business typically contain an indemnification provision pursuant to which the Company indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party in connection with any United States patent, or any copyright or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to the Company’s products. Such provisions generally survive termination or expiration of the agreements. The potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is, in some instances, unlimited. The Company has never incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. As a result, the Company believes that its estimated exposure on these agreements is currently minimal. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of October 31, 2007.

Generally, the Company warrants that its products will perform in all material respects in accordance with its standard published specifications in effect at the time of delivery of the products to the customer for a period ranging from 12 to 24 months from the date of delivery. The Company provides for the estimated cost of product and service warranties based on specific warranty claims, claim history and engineering estimates, where applicable.

The following table presents the Company’s product warranty liability for the reporting periods:


	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2007			2006
Balance at the beginning of the period	$	5,241		$	4,777
Accrual		1,314			1,435
Settlements made in cash or in kind during the period		(1,066	)		(1,348	)

Balance at the end of the period	$	5,489		$	4,864

During August 2007, an OEM customer notified the Company that one of its products was experiencing performance issues. The Company has been working with the OEM customer to resolve the issues that exist and accrued for its best estimate of the potential costs related to the resolution of this matter at October 31, 2007. The Company believes the amount accrued at October 31, 2007 related to these issues is not material; however, actual costs upon final resolution could be different.

The Company currently has approximately $24,200 in revolving credit facilities with banks available for direct borrowings.

14. Subsequent events:

On December 7, 2007, the Company received $555 from its insurance company as reimbursement for legal fees incurred in relation to an indemnification matter related to the Company’s sale of its wholly owned subsidiary Cantronics Medical Systems, Ltd. in November 2005. The $555 will be recorded as income during the three months ended January 31, 2008.

On December 6, 2007 the Company announced that its Board of Directors, on December 4, 2007, declared a dividend of $0.10 per share of Common Stock payable on January 2, 2008 to stockholders of record on December 18, 2007.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion provides an analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. The discussion below contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, other than statements of historical fact, the Company makes in this document. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to differ materially from the projected results as a result of various important factors, including those set forth in Part II.

Summary

The Company is engaged primarily in the design, manufacture and sale of high performance data acquisition, signal processing instruments to customers that manufacture products primarily for two major markets within the electronics industry: Medical Technology Products and Security Technology Products.

The following is a summary of the areas that management believes are important in understanding the results of the periods indicated. This summary is not a substitute for the detail provided in the following pages or for the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes that appear elsewhere in this document.


	Three Months Ended October 31,						Percentage Growth (Decline)
	2007			2006
Net sales	$	94,201		$	75,602		25	%
Gross margin %		37.0	%		23.9	%
Operating expenses	$	28,424		$	28,699		-1	%
Net income (loss)		6,388			(5,360	)
Diluted net income (loss) per share		0.48			(0.39	)

Net revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2007 was $94,201, or 25% higher than the same period last year, due primarily to an increase in product revenues of $14,563, or 21%. The increase in product revenue is due primarily to higher shipments of EXACT systems, which resulted in an increase of $6,106 of Security Technology Product revenue to $9,813 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to $3,707 in the three months ended October 31, 2006. In addition, products revenue from Medical Imaging Products and B-K Medical increased by $5,601, or 13%, and $2,870, or 16%, respectively, for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2006. Also contributing to the increase in net revenue was an increase in engineering revenue of $3,851, or 231%, due primarily to revenue of $2,417 for a Security Technology Product project completed during the three months ended October 31, 2007, which was accounted for under the completed contract method.

Gross margin percentage for the three months ended October 31, 2007 was 37.0% compared to 23.9% for the three months ended October 31, 2006, due primarily to $8,625 of asset impairment charges related to the write-down of assets in the digital radiography business in the first quarter ended October 31, 2006. Engineering gross margin increased $1,258 to $59 in the three months ended October 31, 2007 from a loss of $1,199 in the three months ended October 31, 2006, which was due primarily to $1,313 of costs in excess of contract revenue for certain funded projects of Medical Imaging Products in the quarter ended October 31, 2006.

Total operating expenses decreased by $275 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2006. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in share-based compensation expense and spending on engineering development materials of $234 and $941, respectively, as well as no asset impairment charges in the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2006. Partially offsetting these decreases were an increase in bonus and profit sharing costs of $1,890 from the three months ended October 31, 2006 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2007.

Diluted net income (loss) per share increased $0.87 to $0.48 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to ($0.39) for the three months ended October 31, 2006. The increase was due primarily to no asset impairment charges in the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to $9,705 in the three months ended October 31, 2006 as well as an increase in manufacturing efficiency of Security Technology Products due to higher production volumes.

The deferred revenue balance at October 31, 2007 and July 31, 2007 includes $2,754 and $2,254, respectively, of revenue deferred for a contract that has several undelivered elements as of October 31, 2007, of which the Company does not have fair value for one of the undelivered elements. Upon delivery of this one element without fair value, which is expected to be delivered during the third quarter of the year ended July 31, 2008 (“fiscal year 2008”), the Company expects to recognize approximately $2,000 of this deferred revenue with approximately $400 of related costs.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended October 31, 2007 vs. Three Months Ended October 31, 2006

Net Revenue and Gross Margin

Net revenue and gross margin for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared with the three months ended October 31, 2006 are summarized in the tables below.

Product Revenue and Gross Margin


	Three Months Ended October 31,						Percentage Growth
	2007			2006
Product revenue	$	85,311		$	70,748		21	%
Gross margin		33,262			17,534		90	%
Gross margin %		39.0	%		24.8	%

Product revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2007 increased $14,563, or 21%, over the three months ended October 31, 2006. Security Technology Product revenue increased $6,106, or 165%, to $9,813 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to $3,707 in the three months ended October 31, 2006 due primarily to higher shipments of EXACT systems. For the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, EXACT sales consisted of 15 units and 4 units, respectively. In addition, product revenue from Medical Imaging Products and B-K Medical increased by $5,601, or 13%, and $2,870, or 16%, respectively, for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2006. The increase in Medical Imaging Product revenues was due primarily to the shipment of two newly developed data management systems to an OEM customer, the development of which was not completed by the Company until the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007. Also contributing to the increase in revenue for Medical Imaging Products is continued strong demand for data acquisition systems. The increase in B-K Medical product revenues was due primarily to foreign currency exchange rates, which accounted for 11% of the total increase.

Product gross margin increased to 39.0% for the three months ended October 31, 2007, from 24.8% for the three months ended October 31, 2006. The increase was due primarily to $8,625 of asset impairment charges related to the write-down of assets in the digital radiography business in the first quarter ended October 31, 2006. Also contributing to the increase in the gross margin was an increase in manufacturing efficiency of Security Technology Products due to of higher production volumes.

Engineering Revenue and Gross Margin


	Three Months Ended October 31,						Percentage Growth
	2007			2006
Engineering revenue	$	5,515		$	1,664		231	%
Gross margin		59			(1,199	)	105	%
Gross margin %		1.1	%		-72.1	%

Engineering revenue increased $3,851, or 231%, for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2006. The increase was due primarily to revenue of $2,417 for a Security Technology Product project completed during the three months ended October 31, 2007, which was accounted for under the completed contract method. Also contributing to the increase were two projects accounted for under the percentage of completion method that started in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. These projects were for a Medical Imaging Product and Security Technology Product and accounted for $535 and $617, respectively, of revenue in the three months ended October 31, 2007.

The engineering gross margin increased $1,258 to $59 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 from a gross margin loss of $1,199 for the three months ended October 31, 2006. During the three months ended October 31, 2006, the Company incurred $1,313 of costs in excess of contract revenue for certain funded projects of Medical Imaging Products as well as $317 related to a settlement of a dispute with an OEM customer during the three months ended October 31, 2006. Partially offsetting these costs were $459 related to a contract amendment received in the three months ended October 31, 2006 for a loss recorded primarily during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006.

Other Revenue

Other revenue of $3,375 and $3,190 represents revenue from the hotel operations for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase was due primarily to higher occupancy and room rates.

Operating Expenses


	Three Months Ended October 31,				Percentage of Revenue
	2007		2006		2007		2006
Research and product development	$	11,182	$	11,578	11.9	%	15.3	%
Selling and marketing		7,802		7,002	8.3	%	9.3	%
General and administrative		9,440		9,039	10.0	%	12.0	%
Asset impairment charges		—		1,080	0.0	%	1.4	%

	$	28,424	$	28,699	30.2	%	38.0	%

Research and product development expenses decreased $396 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 from the three months ended October 31, 2006. The decrease was due primarily to a decline in consulting services of $304, an increase in capitalization costs for software development projects of $342, and a decline in spending for engineering development materials. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of bonus and profit sharing costs of $389.

Selling and marketing expenses increased $800 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 over the three months ended October 31, 2006. The increase was due primarily to an increase in bonus and sales commission costs of $327 and $258, respectively, as well as an increase in bad debt expense of $65. These increases are partially offset by a $100 decrease of share-based compensation expense.

General and administrative expenses increased $401 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 over the same period last year. The increase was due primarily to an increase in bonus and profit sharing costs of $1,237 as well as an increase in executive transition costs of $273. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in consulting services, Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance costs, depreciation expense, share-based compensation expense, and hotel costs of $165, $166, $98, $89, and $378, respectively.

Asset impairment charges were $1,080 for the three months ended October 31, 2006 and related to the write-down of assets in the Company’s digital radiography systems business. The asset impairment charges of $1,080 included $696 of capitalized software still in development and $384 of other assets.

Other (Income) Expense

Net interest income was $2,703 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 compared to $3,223 for the three months ended October 31, 2006. The decrease was due primarily to lower invested cash balances as a result of the $60,000 of Common Stock repurchased by the Company in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 and a decline in interest rates.

The Company recorded an equity loss in unconsolidated affiliates of $78 related to PhotoDetection Systems, Inc. for the three months ended October 31, 2006.

Net other (income) expense was ($439) and $122 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Other income (expense) consisted predominantly of foreign currency exchange gains and losses incurred by the Company’s Canadian and Danish subsidiaries during the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, as well as an $84 gain on sale of the Company’s investment in Bio-Imaging Research, Inc. during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 as a result of proceeds received from the escrow account during the three months ended October 31, 2007.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006 was a provision of 33% and a benefit of 30%, respectively. The effective income tax rate is based upon the estimated income for the fiscal year, the composition of the income in different countries, and adjustments, if any, in the applicable quarterly periods for the potential tax consequences, benefits, resolutions of tax audits or other tax contingencies. For the three months ended October 31, 2007, the effective tax rate was reduced from the statutory tax rate of 35% by 2% primarily from lower foreign tax rates, as well as a discrete benefit of 0.4% for disqualified dispositions of incentive stock options, partially offset by an increase of 0.2% for the impact of a reduction in the German tax rate on net operating loss carryovers. For the three months ended October 31, 2006, the effective tax rate was reduced from the statutory tax rate of 35% by 5% primarily from lower foreign tax rates and larger state tax credits partially offset by the expiration of the Federal research and experimentation credit.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Net income (loss) as well as net income (loss) per share for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006 are as follows:


	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2007			2006
Net income (loss)	$	6,388		$	(5,360	)
% of net revenue		6.8	%		-7.1	%
Diluted net income (loss) per share	$	0.48		$	(0.39	)

Net income was $6,388 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 compared to net loss of $5,360 for the three months ended October 31, 2006. Basic and diluted net income per share were $0.49 and $0.48, respectively, for the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.39 for the three months ended October 31 2006. The increase in net income as well as basic and diluted net income (loss) per share from the three months ended October 31, 2006 to the three months ended October 31, 2007 was due primarily to asset impairment charges on a pre-tax basis of $9,705 related to the write-down of the Company’s digital radiography business in the three months ended October 31, 2006. Also contributing to the increase was an increase in manufacturing efficiency of Security Technology Products due to higher production volumes

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $236,632 and $228,545 at October 31, 2007 and July 31, 2007, respectively. Working capital was $310,670 and $300,114 at October 31, 2007 and July 31, 2007, respectively. The Company’s balance sheet reflected an increase in the current ratio to 6.5 to 1 at October 31, 2007 as compared to 5.6 to 1 at July 31, 2007, due primarily to an increase in inventory of $3,528 and a decrease in accrued liabilities of $4,361. The increase in inventory was due primarily to foreign currency exchange rates and increased production volume for Security Technology Products. The decrease in accrued liabilities was due primarily to declines in accrued sales taxes, bonuses, and profit sharing costs. Liquidity has been provided principally through funds provided from operations with short-term time deposits and marketable securities to provide additional sources of cash.

The Company faces exposure to financial market risks, including adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates, and changes in interest rates. These exposures can change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial results. The Company’s primary exposure is related to fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and local currencies for the Company’s subsidiaries in Canada and Europe.

The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, and trade payables approximate fair value at October 31, 2007, due to the short maturities of these instruments.

Cash equivalents totaled $188,787 at October 31, 2007 and include all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from the time of purchase. Held to maturity marketable securities having maturities from the time of purchase in excess of three months totaled $47,845 at October 31, 2007 and are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, and are classified as held to maturity. A rise in interest rates could have an adverse impact on the fair value of the Company’s investment portfolio. The Company does not currently hedge these interest rate exposures.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $11,943 and $7,083 for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The cash flows generated from operating activities for the three months ended October 31, 2007 were due primarily to net income of $6,388, depreciation and amortization of $3,502, and a decrease in deferred income taxes of $3,238, partially offset by a net change in operating assets and liabilities of $1,410. The net change in operating assets and liabilities was due primarily to decreases in accounts receivable, other assets, accrued liabilities, and advanced payments and deferred revenue of $4,232, $788, $5,140, and $682, respectively, partially offset by increases in inventories, accounts payable, and accrued income taxes of $2,180, $1,439, and $133, respectively.

The decrease in deferred income taxes of $3,238 is due primarily to the disposal of assets impaired in a prior period.

The decrease in accounts receivable of $4,232 is due primarily to strong collections in the U.S. The decrease in other assets of $788 is due primarily to a decrease in deferred contract costs of $2,224 as the result of a Security Technology Product project that was completed during the three months ended October 31, 2007 and accounted for under the completed contract method. The total deferred contract costs related to this project at July 31, 2007 was $2,417. This decrease is partially offset by an increase of approximately in $673 in prepaid insurance costs and an increase of $437 of costs related to deferred revenue. The decrease in accrued liabilities of $5,140 is primarily due to the timing of bonus, profit-sharing, and VAT payments. The decrease in advanced payments and deferred revenue of $682 is due primarily to the completion of a Security Technology Product project during the three months ended October 31, 2007 that was accounted for using the completed contract method and had $2,417 of deferred revenue at July 31, 2007. The completion of the Security Technology Product project is partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $693 on projects accounted for using the percentage completion for one Medical Imaging Product customer and an increase in customer advances of $922 related to two Medical Imaging Product customers.

The increase in inventories is due primarily to increased production volume for Security Technology Products. The increase in accounts payable was due to timing of vendor payments. The increase in accrued income taxes was due primarily to the income tax provision for the three months ended October 31, 2007.

Net cash used for investing activities was $49,353 in the three months ended October 31, 2007 as compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $1,378 for the three months ended October 31, 2006. The cash used for investing activities in the three months ended October 31, 2007 was due primarily to the purchase of short-term held to maturity marketable securities and capital expenditures $47,845 and $3,125, respectively, partially offset by the maturities of marketable securities of $2,000.

Net cash used for financing activities was $298 and $834 in the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net cash used for financing activities in the three months ended October 31, 2007 consisted of $1,325 for dividends paid to stockholders which was partially offset by cash received from the issuance of stock pursuant to the Company’s employee stock option plans of $890.

The Company believes that its balances of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and cash flows expected to be generated by future operating activities will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Commitments, Contractual Obligation and Off-Balance Sheets Arrangements

The Company’s contractual obligations at October 31, 2007, and the effect such obligations are expected to have on liquidity and cash flows in future periods, are as follows:


*Contractual Obligation*	Total		Less than 1 year		1 - 3 years		4 - 5 years		More than 5 years
Operating leases	$	7,072	$	1,996	$	2,383	$	1,298	$	1,395
Purchasing obligations		36,455		31,925		4,530		—		—

	$	43,527	$	33,921	$	6,913	$	1,298	$	1,395

The Company currently has approximately $24,200 in revolving credit facilities with various banks available for direct borrowings. As of October 31, 2007, there were no direct borrowings, commitments, contractual obligations or off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is based on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company’s most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. These policies include estimates and significant judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company continues to have the same critical accounting policies and estimates as are described in Item 7, beginning on page 32, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2007 filed with the SEC on September 27, 2007. Those policies and estimates relate to revenue recognition and accounts receivable; stock based compensation; inventories; concentration of credit risk; warranty reserve; investment in and advances to affiliated companies; intangible assets and other long-lived assets; and income taxes. The Company continues to evaluate its estimates and judgments on an on-going basis. By their nature, these estimates and judgments require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates on matters that are inherently uncertain. In the case of the Company’s critical accounting policies, these estimates and judgments are based on its historical experience, terms of existing contracts, the Company’s observance of trends in the industry, information provided by its customers, and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

All dollar amounts in this Item 3 are in thousands.

The Company places its cash investments in high–credit-quality financial instruments and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. The Company faces limited exposure to financial market risks, including adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial results. The Company’s primary exposure is related to fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and local currencies for the Company’s subsidiaries in Canada and Europe.

The Company’s cash and investments include cash equivalents, which the Company considers to be investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. Investments having original maturities in excess of three months are stated at fair value,

and are classified as available for sale. Cash and cash equivalents not required for working capital purposes are placed in short-term investments of government agency discounted notes. Total interest income for three months ended October 31, 2007 was $2,712. An interest rate change of 10% would not have a material impact on the fair value of the portfolio or on future earnings.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2007. The term “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions to be made regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that any system of controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met and that management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2007, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There were no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended October 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment decision with respect to the Company’s Common Stock. Additional risks not presently known to the Company, or that the Company currently deems immaterial, may also impair the Company’s business. Any of these could have a material and negative effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Because a significant portion of the Company’s revenue currently comes from a small number of customers, any decrease in revenue from these customers could harm the Company’s operating results.

The Company depends on a small number of customers for a large portion of its business, and changes in its customers’ orders may have a significant impact on the Company’s operating results. If a major customer significantly reduces the amount of business it does with the Company, there would be an adverse impact on its operating results.

The Company had three customers, as set forth in the table below, who individually accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s net product and engineering revenue during either the three months ended October 31, 2007 or 2006.


	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2007		2006
Customer 1	19	%	20	%
Customer 2	(	*)	10	%
Customer 3	11	%	(	*)

Note (*): Total product and engineering revenues were less than 10% in this quarter.

The Company’s ten largest customers as a group accounted for 70% and 66% of the Company’s net product and engineering revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Although the Company is seeking to broaden its customer base, it will continue to depend on sales to a relatively small number of major customers. Because it often takes significant time to replace lost business, it is likely that the Company’s operating results would be adversely affected if one or more of the Company’s major customers were to cancel, delay, or reduce significant orders in the future. The Company’s customer agreements typically permit the customer to discontinue future purchases after timely notice.

In addition, the Company generates significant accounts receivable in connection with the products the Company sells and the services it provides to its major customers. Although the Company’s major customers are large corporations, if one or more of its customers were to become insolvent or otherwise be unable to pay for the Company’s products and services, the Company’s operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Competition from existing or new companies in the medical and security imaging technology industry could cause the Company to experience downward pressure on prices, fewer customer orders, reduced margins, the inability to take advantage of new business opportunities, and the loss of market share.

The Company operates in a highly competitive industry. The Company is subject to competition based on product design, performance, pricing, quality, and service offerings, and management believes the Company’s innovative engineering and product reliability have been important factors in its growth. While the Company tries to maintain competitive pricing on those products which are directly comparable to products manufactured by others, in many instances the Company’s products will conform to more exacting specifications and carry a higher price than analogous products manufactured by others.

The Company’s competitors include divisions of larger, more diversified organizations as well as specialized companies. Some of them have greater resources and larger staffs than the Company has. Many of the Company’s existing and potential OEM customers have the ability to design and manufacture internally the products that the Company manufactures for them. The Company faces competition from the research and product development groups and manufacturing operations of its existing and potential customers, who continually compare the benefits of internal research, product development, and manufacturing with the costs and benefits of outsourcing.

The Company depends on its suppliers, some of which are the sole source for certain components, and its production would be substantially curtailed if these suppliers were not able to meet the Company’s demands and alternative sources were not available.

The Company orders raw materials and components to complete its customers’ orders, and some of these raw materials and components are ordered from sole-source suppliers. Although the Company works with its customers and suppliers to minimize the impact of shortages in raw materials and components, the Company sometimes experiences short-term adverse effects due to price fluctuations and delayed shipments. In the past, there have been industry-wide shortages of electronics components. If a significant shortage of raw materials or components were to occur, the Company might have to delay shipments or pay premium pricing, which could adversely affect its operating results. In some cases, supply shortages of particular components will substantially curtail the Company’s production of products using these components. The Company is not always able to pass on price increases to its customers. Accordingly, some raw material and component price increases could adversely affect its operating results. The Company also depends on a small number of suppliers to provide many of the other raw materials and components that it uses in its business. Some of these suppliers are affiliated with customers or competitors, and others are small companies. If the Company were unable to continue to purchase these raw materials and components from its suppliers, its operating results could be adversely affected. Because many of the Company’s costs are fixed, its margins depend on the volume of output at its facilities, and a reduction in volume could adversely affect its margins.

If the Company were to be left with excess inventory, its operating results would be adversely affected.

Because of long lead times and specialized product designs, the Company typically purchases components and manufactures products in anticipation of customer orders based on customer forecasts. For a variety of reasons, such as decreased end-user demand for the Company’s products, its customers might not purchase all of the products that it has manufactured or for which it has purchased components. In either event, the Company would attempt to recoup material and manufacturing costs by means such as returning components to its vendors, disposing of excess inventory through other channels, or requiring its OEM customers to purchase or otherwise compensate it for such excess inventory. Some of the Company’s significant customer agreements do not give it the ability to require its OEM customers to do this. To the extent that the Company was unsuccessful in recouping its material and manufacturing costs, its net sales and operating results would be adversely affected. Moreover, carrying excess inventory would reduce the working capital the Company has available to continue to operate and grow its business.

Uncertainties and adverse trends affecting the Company’s industry or any of its major customers may adversely affect its operating results.

The Company’s business operates primarily within two major markets within the electronics industry, Medical Technology Products and Security Technology Products, which are subject to rapid technological change, pricing, and margin pressure. These markets have historically been cyclical and subject to significant downturns characterized by diminished product demand, rapid declines in average selling prices, and production over-capacity. In addition, changes in government policy relating to reimbursement for the purchase and use of medical and security-related capital equipment could also affect the Company’s sales. The Company’s customers’ markets are also subject to economic cycles and are likely to experience recessionary periods in the future. The economic conditions affecting the Company’s industry in general, or any of its major customers in particular, might adversely affect its operating results. The Company’s other businesses are subject to the same or greater technological and cyclical pressures.

The Company’s customers’ delay or inability to obtain any necessary United States or foreign regulatory clearances or approvals for their products could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

The Company’s products are used by a number of its customers in the production of medical devices that are subject to a high level of regulatory oversight. A delay in obtaining or inability to obtain any necessary United States or foreign regulatory clearances or approvals for products could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. The process of obtaining clearances and approvals can be costly and time-consuming. There is a further risk that any approvals or clearances, once obtained, might be withdrawn or modified. Medical devices cannot be marketed in the United States without clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). Medical devices sold in the United States must also be manufactured in compliance with FDA rules and regulations, which regulate the design, manufacturing, packing, storage, and installation of medical devices. Moreover, medical devices are required to comply with FDA regulations relating to investigational research and labeling. States may also regulate the manufacturing, sale, and use of medical devices. Medical devices are also subject to approval and regulation by foreign regulatory and safety agencies.

The Company’s business strategy involves the pursuit of acquisitions or business combinations, which, if consummated, could be difficult to integrate, disrupt the Company’s business, dilute stockholder value, or divert management attention.

As part of the Company’s business strategy, the Company might consummate acquisitions or business combinations. Acquisitions are typically accompanied by a number of risks, including the difficulty of integrating the operations and personnel of

the acquired companies, the potential disruption of the Company’s ongoing business and distraction of management, expenses related to the acquisition, and potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses. If the Company does not successfully complete acquisitions that it pursues in the future, it could incur substantial expenses and devote significant management time and resources without generating any benefit to the Company. In addition, substantial portions of the Company’s available cash might be utilized as consideration for these acquisitions.

The Company’s annual and quarterly operating results are subject to fluctuations, which could affect the market price of its Common Stock.

The Company’s annual and quarterly results may vary significantly depending on various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, and may not meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors. If this occurs, the price of the Company’s Common Stock would likely decline. These factors include:

•

variations in the timing and volume of customer orders relative to the Company’s manufacturing capacity;

•

introduction and market acceptance of the Company’s customers’ new products;

•

changes in demand for the Company’s customers’ existing products;

•

the timing of the Company’s expenditures in anticipation of future orders;

•

effectiveness in managing the Company’s manufacturing processes;

•

changes in competitive and economic conditions generally or in the Company’s customers’ markets;

•

changes in the cost or availability of components or skilled labor;

•

foreign currency exposure; and

•

investor and analyst perceptions of events affecting the Company, its competitors, and/or its industry.

A delay in anticipated sales could result in the deferral of the associated revenue beyond the end of a particular quarter, which would have a significant effect on the Company’s operating results for that quarter. In addition, most of the Company’s operating expenses do not vary directly with net sales and are difficult to adjust in the short term. As a result, if net sales for a particular quarter were below the Company’s expectations, it could not proportionately reduce operating expenses for that quarter. Hence, the revenue shortfall would have a disproportionate adverse effect on its operating results for that quarter.

Loss of any of the Company’s key personnel could hurt its business because of their industry experience and their technological expertise.

The Company operates in a highly competitive industry and depends on the services of its key senior executives and its technological experts. The loss of the services of one or several of its key employees or an inability to attract, train, and retain qualified and skilled employees, specifically engineering and operations personnel, could result in the loss of customers or otherwise inhibit the Company’s ability to operate and grow its business successfully.

If the Company is unable to maintain its expertise in research, product development, and manufacturing processes, it will not be able to compete successfully.

The Company believes that its future success depends upon its ability to provide research, product development, and manufacturing services that meet the changing needs of its customers. This requires that the Company successfully anticipate and respond to technological changes in design and manufacturing processes in a cost-effective and timely manner. As a result, the Company continually evaluates the advantages and feasibility of new product designs and manufacturing processes. The Company cannot, however, be certain that its development efforts will be successful.

The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the creation of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security have increased financial expectations that may not materialize.

The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the subsequent creation of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security have created increased interest in the Company’s security and inspection systems. However, the level of demand for the Company’s products is not predictable and may vary over time. The Company does not know what solutions will continue to be adopted by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as a result of terrorism and whether its products will continue to be a part of the solution. Additionally, should the Company’s products be considered as a part of the future security solution, it is unclear what the level of purchases may be and how quickly funding to purchase the Company’s products may be made available. These factors may adversely impact the Company and create unpredictability in revenues and operating results.

The Company is exposed to risks associated with international operations and markets.

The Company markets and sell products in international markets, and has established offices and subsidiaries in Denmark, Germany, Italy, and Canada. Revenues from international operations accounted for 18% and 20% of total revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. From its U.S. operations, the Company also ships directly to customers in Europe and Asia, for which shipments accounted for 29% of total revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2007 and 2006. There are inherent risks in transacting business internationally, including:

•

changes in applicable laws and regulatory requirements;

•

export and import restrictions;

•

export controls relating to technology;

•

tariffs and other trade barriers;

•

intellectual property laws that offer less protection for the Company’s proprietary rights;

•

difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;

•

longer payment cycles;

•

problems in collecting accounts receivable;

•

political instability;

•

fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

•

expatriation controls; and

•

potential adverse tax consequences.

There can be no assurance that one or more of these factors will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future international activities and, consequently, on its business and results of operations.

If the Company becomes subject to intellectual property infringement claims, it could incur significant expenses and could be prevented from selling specific products.

The Company may become subject to claims that it infringes the intellectual property rights of others in the future. The Company cannot ensure that, if made, these claims will not be successful. Any claim of infringement could cause the Company to incur substantial costs defending against the claim even if the claim is invalid, and could distract management from other business. Any judgment against the Company could require substantial payment in damages and could also include an injunction or other court order that could prevent the Company from offering certain products.

If operators of the Company’s security and inspection systems fail to detect weapons, explosives or other devises that are used to commit a terrorist act, the Company could be exposed to product liability and related claims for which it may not have adequate insurance coverage.

The Company’s business exposes it to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the development, manufacturing, sale and service of security inspection systems. The Company’s customers use its security and inspection systems to help them detect items that could be used in performing terrorist acts or other crimes. The training, reliability and competence of the customer’s operator are crucial to the detection of suspicious items. In addition, the Company’s security and inspection systems are not designed to work under all circumstances. The Company tests the reliability of its security and inspection systems during both their development and manufacturing phases. The Company also performs such tests if it is requested to perform installation, warranty or post-warranty servicing. However, the Company’s security inspection systems are advanced mechanical and electronic devices and therefore can malfunction.

As a result of the September 11, 2001, the 1993 World Trade Center bombing attacks, and the potential for future attacks, product liability insurance coverage for such threats is extremely difficult to obtain. It is very likely that, should the Company be found liable following a major act of terrorism, the insurance coverage it currently has in place would not fully cover the claims for damages.

Item 2.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

The following table contains information about purchases by the Company of its equity securities during the three months ended October 31, 2007. All of the shares shown as purchased in the table below were surrendered by employees of the Company in order to meet tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock awards. These transactions were not part of a publicly announced program to repurchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock.


Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Average Price Paid per Share (1)		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs	Maximum Number (or Approximate Dollar Value) of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs

Item 5.

Other information

On October 26, 2007, the Company’s Compensation Committee adopted a new annual incentive bonus plan for fiscal year 2008 (the “Plan”), in which all employees of the Company, including its executive officers, are eligible to participate. The Plan is based on the achievement of revenue and adjusted diluted earnings per share targets. Executive officers of the Company in the Plan are given a target award, payable in cash, and an opportunity to earn a maximum of two times the target. Any amount earned under the Plan by an executive officer of the Company that is in excess of the target award will be payable 50% in cash and 50% with restricted stock that will vest over a period of two years. The corporate performance targets were set by the Compensation Committee to be reasonably likely, but by no means certain, of being attained. Under the Company’s employment agreement with James W. Green, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, his target bonus for fiscal year 2008 is, as previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on May 7, 2007, guaranteed at 65% of his base salary, or $292,500. Under the Company’s employment agreement with John J. Fry, the Company’s Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, his target bonus for fiscal year 2008 is guaranteed at 40% of his base salary, prorated for the eight full calendar months he will have worked for Analogic during fiscal year 2008, or $76,500. The form of notice of participation in the Plan for the Company’s executive officers is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Exhibit 10.2

Analogic Corporation

Annual Incentive Plan for Fiscal Year 2008


Employee:		Supervisor:
Title:		Business Unit:
Plan Year:	8/1/2007 – 7/31/2008	Target Level (% of salary):

Congratulations! Analogic Corporation (the “Company”) has selected you to participate in its Annual Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for fiscal year 2008. A summary of the terms of the Plan, as it applies to you, is shown below ¹ :

1.	Eligibility to Earn an Award

You will be eligible to earn an award under the Plan if all of the following conditions apply:

(a)

Analogic achieves at least 50% of its Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS) budget for fiscal year 2008;

(b)

you have received a performance rating of 3.0 or higher on your performance evaluation during the regular annual review process for fiscal year 2008; and

(c)

you are an employee of the Company on the date of the payment of the award, ² or your employment is terminated involuntarily on or after February 1, 2008 and you are eligible for Severance Benefits.

2.	Performance Factors (see attachment)

The Target Level for your award is listed above. Your actual award may be greater or less than the Target Level, depending on the Company’s performance for the Plan year. If you are eligible to receive an award, your final award amount will be determined based upon the following performance factors:

(a)

Analogic Adjusted EPS —70% of your award shall be determined by Analogic’s year-end results for Adjusted EPS relative to budget for fiscal year 2008.

(b)

Analogic Revenue —30% of your award shall be determined by Analogic’s year-end results for Revenue relative to budget for fiscal year 2008.

3.	Determining Your Award

(a)

Your award will be equal to your Target Level multiplied by your Eligible Base Earnings, adjusted for the actual performance measures relative to budget attained for 2008. “Eligible Base Earnings” means total base salary payments (including vacation, sick, and holiday pay) made through Company payroll for the Plan year. Payments made to employees during approved medical leaves of absence are excluded.

(b)

Actual awards will range from 0 to two (2) times the Target Level for the performance factors. For Corporate VP’s and General Managers, amounts in excess of the Target Level will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in restricted stock (vesting 50% per year on the first and second anniversaries of the grant).

(c)

If you are not eligible for an award for the entire 2008 fiscal year or if your Target Level changes during the Plan year, your award will be prorated based on the number of months that you were eligible to receive the award.

This document is not an employment agreement, and terms of employment are unaffected because of this document. The Company reserves the right to adjust awards up or down in its discretion based on exceptional circumstances. If Analogic Adjusted EPS is less than 50% of budget, no awards will be earned under this Plan.

My signature represents my receipt of the terms and understanding of this plan.



Name				Date

¹	For more information concerning the Plan, please contact the Human Resources Department.

²	Because payment of an award under the Plan is determined in part upon the Company’s performance during the 2008 Fiscal Year, the payment date of any award will be after the completion of fiscal year 2008, as determined in the sole discretion of the Company’s Compensation Committee.

Dear John:

I am delighted to offer you the position of Vice President – General Counsel and Corporate Secretary for Analogic Corporation (the “Company” or “Analogic”). I am excited about the prospect of your joining Analogic and look forward to your leadership in helping build a strong future for our Company.

The following provides the terms and conditions of your employment offer set forth in this letter Agreement (the “Agreement”):

1.	Start Date . Your employment will commence on or about November 26, 2007.

2.	Reporting Relationship . You will report directly to me, James Green, President and CEO.

3.	Base Salary . Your starting annualized base salary (the “Base Salary”) will be $285,000 per year. The first review will occur as part of the normal year-end Company process for fiscal year 2008. Salary will be paid periodically in accordance with normal Company payroll practices.

Annual Performance Bonus . You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual bonus program with an initial target (the “Target Bonus”) of 40% of the Base Salary (i.e., $114,000). Your bonus for fiscal year 2008 is guaranteed at target, pro-rated for the number of full months you work for Analogic during the fiscal year, which ends in July (e.g., if you start in November, your guarantee would be for 8/12ths of the year, or $76,000).

Sign-on Bonus. As soon as practical after your start date, you will receive a sign-on bonus in the amount of $200,000. You will be required to repay this bonus (pro-rata based on the number of full months worked) should you voluntarily terminate your employment with the Company without Good Reason (as defined below) within two years of your start date.

Equity Grants . You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual long-term incentive program, which presently consists solely of performance-contingent restricted stock. As soon as practicable upon hire you will receive a “target” award of 4,000 shares (and “maximum” of 8,000 shares) of performance-contingent restricted stock, granted as part of the Company’s normal three (3) year performance-based long-term incentive program (the “Performance Contingent Award”);

The terms of the Performance Contingent Award are identical to the terms that are applicable to all participants, with the exception of the following:

If you are terminated without Cause (as defined below) or for Good Reason (as defined in Analogic’s Change of Control agreement dated May 2007) within one year from the date of hire, the performance goals will be deemed met and pro-rata shares, relative to the maximum award, shall vest based on the number of whole months completed in your employment period to date.

Other than the terms described above, this and future grants will be made under the same terms and conditions as other participants.

7.	One-Time Equity Grant . As soon as practicable after your start date, you will receive a one-time grant of time-based restricted stock as follows:

2,000 shares of time-based restricted stock, vesting 25% per year beginning on the second anniversary of grant date (the “Time-Based Award”); and

If your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason within one year from the date of hire, vesting will fully accelerate on 100% of the Time-Based Award.

8.	Vacation . You will be entitled to accrue up to four (4) weeks of paid vacation each year of employment plus sick leave on the same basis as all other executives of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of the vacation and sick leave policies of the Company.

9.	Relocation . You will be eligible for the standard Analogic relocation policy to assist your move from Ohio to Massachusetts, including:

Reasonable number of house hunting trips for you and your spouse;

Reimbursement of your travel expenses to and from Cleveland to visit your family pending their move to Boston.

Temporary housing while transitioning from Ohio;

Reasonable transportation and shipping costs;

Closing costs and/or legal fees related to the purchase and sale of your current home;

Should the sale of your current home not close prior to your purchase of a home in Massachusetts, the Company will reimburse actual costs (including loan acquisition fees and interest) of bridge financing in an amount approximately equal to value of your present home. Financing will be obtained by you, directly from a third party lender. This benefit is limited to two years from your start date, and

The tax effect of any income that is imputed to you as a result of the above relocation benefits will be grossed up by Analogic.

10.	Benefits . You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s standard benefit program generally applicable to similarly situated executives which includes medical, dental and life insurance, short and long-term disability protection and participation the Company’s 401(k) profit sharing plan.

The full range of benefits for you and your family is summarized in the 2007 Employee Benefits Summary. Note that the Company reserves the right to change or amend its benefit plans it offers to employees at any time.

11.	Change-In-Control . You will be eligible for the following Change-in-Control (CIC) benefits in the event your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason within twenty-four (24) months following a CIC (the “CIC Period”):

One times the Base Salary plus the greater of: (1) the Target Bonus for the year in which termination occurs or (2) the average bonus paid to you over the prior three (3) full fiscal years;

Pro-rata bonus based on the number of whole months worked in the year of termination (fiscal), using the greater of the Target Bonus or the projected actual bonus, to the extent determinable;

Health and welfare benefit continuation for 12 months;

Acceleration of vesting of unvested equity awards including, without limitation, the Performance-Contingent Award and the Time-Based Award; and

If any excise taxes are imposed on you because your CIC payments exceed your safe harbor under the Federal golden parachute rules (as defined in IRS Sections 280G and 4999), these excise taxes will be reimbursed to you along with the Federal and State income tax effect of this reimbursement. However, should your CIC payments exceed your safe harbor amount by less than $50,000 or 10% of your safe harbor amount; you will receive the greater of: (1) your total CIC payments less the estimated cost of your excise tax or (2) your safe harbor amount.

The terms described above will be incorporated into a change of control agreement of a form substantially similar to the May 2007 form of CIC agreement.

12.	General Severance . You will also be eligible for the following severance benefits in the event your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason and other than during the CIC Period.

Base Salary continuation for the greater of: (1) the remainder of the 24 month period following your start date or (2) 12 months following your date of termination;

A lump sum payment equal to (i) the greater of the Target Bonus or your actual bonus, to the extent determinable, for the year of termination;

Outplacement assistance;

Equity treatment as described in 6(a)(i) and 7(b) above; and,

The cost of relocation, but only if back to Cleveland, Ohio. This benefit applies for a maximum of two years from your actual start date.

13.	Restrictive Covenants . Severance payments will be conditioned on your signing of a general waiver and release of claims, and your agreement not to solicit employees or customers for the severance period, and not disparage the Company nor disclose trade secrets or confidential information.

14.

Prior Agreements . You represent and warrant that you are not bound by any agreement with a previous employer or other party that you would breach by accepting employment with the Company or performing your duties as an employee of the Company. You further represent and warrant that, in the performance of your duties with the Company, you will not utilize or disclose any confidential information in breach of an agreement with a previous employer or any other party. It is acknowledged that, as an attorney, you are subject to certain legal and ethical obligations, including those set out in the applicable rules of professional conduct governing the conduct of attorneys and relating to conflicts of interest. Any such obligations will not be considered a breach of this agreement.

15.

Business Expenses . You will be reimbursed for customary business expenses incurred in connection with the performance of your duties and activities as Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary pursuant to the Company’s established policies. These expenses include but are not limited to expenses related to bar admissions and registrations, and continuing legal education.

16.

Nature of Employment. Your employment with the Company is on an “at-will” basis, meaning that either you or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any reason, with or without Cause and with or without notice, subject to the severance and acceleration provisions described above. As used in this Agreement, “Cause” means (a) any intentionally dishonest, illegal, or insubordinate conduct which is materially injurious to Analogic or any of its subsidiaries or which results in an improper substantial personal benefit, (b) material breach of any provision of any employment, nondisclosure, non-competition, or similar agreement to which you are a party or by which you are bound, (c) material nonperformance or gross dereliction of duty, (d) conviction of a felony, or (e) commission of an action involving moral turpitude. For the purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall have the meaning ascribed to it in Analogic’s Change of Control Agreement dated May 2007, it being understood however that a Change of Control shall not be required. For the avoidance of doubt, you may terminate your employment for Good Reason at any time regardless of whether a Change of Control is contemplated or has occurred. It is further understood that, outside the context of a Change of Control, the Company retains the right to modify its employee benefits plans (i.e., health, welfare, retirement, etc.) and avoid triggering a Good Reason termination, as described in sections 5(c)(ii) and 4(b)(iii) of Analogic’s May 2007 Change of Control Agreement.

17.

Final Agreement . This Agreement sets forth a summary of the terms of your service with the Company and supersedes any prior representations or agreements, whether written or oral. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been entered into and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

18.

Timing of Payments . The payments under Sections 11 and 12 above will be made as soon as practicable following the date your employment terminates. Any amounts payable under this Agreement that constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code shall be paid, if so required, at the later of: (i) the time otherwise provided in this Agreement and (ii) a date that is more than six months following the date of your separation from service with the Company.

As has been previously communicated to you., it would be necessary to pass a drug test for certain illicit substances, pass a background check, which includes credit and court records, and I-9 proof of U.S. employment eligibility.

Thank you and I enthusiastically look forward to working with you in your new role at Analogic.

Sincerely,

Analogic Corporation

/s/ Jim Green

Jim Green, President & CEO

Analogic Corporation

Accepted and agreed to on this 30th day of October, 2007.
