This is driven by some important positives, which we believe should have a greater impact than any nesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its good cash flow from operations, expanding profit margins, solid stock price performance, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and notable return on equity. We feel its strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income. HIGHLIGHTS Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by % to $ million when compared to the same quarter last year. The firm also exceeded the industry average cash flow growth rate of 71.43% % is the gross profit margin for which we consider to be. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Regardless of the results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 7.48% trails the industry average. Q Q Q Q Q Q Q NA = not available NM = not meaningful Q Q Q Compustat fiscal year convention is used for all fundamental data items. Compared to where it was a year ago today, the stock is now trading at a higher level, regardless of the company's earnings results. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market. However, in any other environment, this stock still has good upside potential despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year. Regardless of the drop in revenue, the company managed to outperform against the industry average of 11.1%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 8.7%. Weakness in the company's revenue seems to have hurt the bottom line, decreasing earnings per share. 's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.95 is somewhat low overall, but it is high when compared to the industry average, implying that the management of the debt levels should be evaluated further. Regardless of the somewhat mixed results with the debt-to-equity ratio, the company's quick ratio of 0.88 is. PAGE 1

The electrical components & equipment segment includes manufacturers of small-scale electrical equipment, such as motors, electric heating, and cooling systems, small generators, storage batteries, and related equipment. The heavy electrical equipment segment includes manufacturers of power-generating equipment and other equipment, such as power turbines, machinery for fixed-use, and large electrical systems. There are more than 2000 electrical equipment companies operating in the industry. The industry is cyclical and manufacturers distribute their products to other manufacturing industries, wholesalers, and the construction industry. Major players are ABB (ABB), Eaton Corp (ETN), Rockwell Automation (ROK), Emerson Electric (), Plug Power (PLUG), and Ametek (AME). Establishing an efficient and flexible supply chain drives manufacturing excellence. With increasing competition from global players, minimizing inventory and lead times while maximizing top-line with quick-to-market products is crucial. Electric power equipment, including metal-clad switchgear, switchgear relays, and ducts, has growth potential in the electric utilities market due to the increasing investment in automated systems, which results in greater efficiency and lower operating costs. Latin America and Asia, with their increasing population, rapid industrialization, and infrastructure investments, represent a substantial portion of the export market. The industry may incur significant expenditures going forward because of the need to produce manufacturing equipment with lower carbon dioxide emissions. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change expects to reduce total electricity consumption 40% by The industry is dependent on electrical distributors and industry wholesalers, who form the main distribution channel. These distributors control visibility and availability of products to the end market. These distribution companies, which typically work on low margins, make it challenging for smaller players to compete. The largest distributors acquire smaller independent distributors in order to gain market share. Electronics and electrical equipment manufacturers are trying to streamline operations and eliminate waste. Many companies are pursuing reduced operating costs and increased manufacturing flexibility by implementing improvement methodologies such as lean manufacturing and Six Sigma. In order to be cost and price competitive, manufacturers are moving component and final assembly production to facilities outside of the US. Low interest rates may boost capital expenditure and mergers and acquisitions in the domestic market. Demand for electrical transmission and distribution equipment is expected to grow 3.6% per annum due to anticipated increases in non-utility generation and regulatory activities, which will spur investment in the electric grid.

It is provided in order to give you a deeper understanding of our rating methodology as well as to paint a more complete picture of a stock's strengths and nesses. It is important to note, however, that these factors only tell part of the story. To gain an even more comprehensive understanding of our stance on the stock, these factors must be assessed in combination with the stock s valuation. Please refer to our Valuation section on page 5 for further information. FACTOR SCORE Growth 3.5 out of 5 stars Measures the growth of both the company's income statement and cash flow.

THESTREET RATINGS RESEARCH METHODOLOGY TheStreet Ratings' stock model projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends. Our Buy, Hold or Sell ratings designate how we expect these stocks to perform against a general benchmark of the equities market and interest rates. While our model is quantitative, it utilizes both subjective and objective elements. For instance, subjective elements include expected equities market returns, future interest rates, implied industry outlook and forecasted company earnings. Objective elements include volatility of past operating revenues, financial strength, and company cash flows. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e.how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's performance. These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. PAGE 3
