See further discussion under Segment Highlights.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Margins - For our fiscal 2009 third quarter, cost of revenues was $24.2 million compared to $24.0 million for the prior fiscal year third quarter. The consolidated gross margin percentage was 23% and 35% for our fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008 third quarters, respectively. For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, cost of revenues was $94.3 million compared to $85.2 million for the prior fiscal year nine-month period. The consolidated gross margin percentage was 29% and 35% for our fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008 nine-month periods, respectively.
One of the most significant factors that affects, and should continue to affect, the comparison of our consolidated gross margins from period to period is the change in revenue mix between our segments. The revenue contribution by each of our segments is indicated in the following table.

-- Consistent gross margins for our Specialty Chemicals and Aerospace
Equipment segments for the fiscal 2009 nine-month period compared to the
prior year nine-month period.
-- A decrease in Fine Chemicals segment gross margin percentage primarily
due to manufacturing inefficiencies and volume declines.
See further discussion under Segment Highlights.
Operating Expenses - For our fiscal 2009 third quarter, operating expenses increased $0.5 million to $10.9 million from $10.4 million for the third quarter of the prior fiscal year primarily as a result of:
-- A $0.4 million decrease in Fine Chemicals segment incentive
compensation, as a result of recording no incentive compensation in
fiscal 2009.
-- An increase in Aerospace Equipment segment operating expenses primarily
due to additional operating expenses of $0.7 million from the
acquisition of AMPAC ISP Holdings.
-- A decrease in corporate expenses, primarily due to a decrease of $0.3
million in incentive compensation, as a result of recording no incentive
compensation in fiscal 2009.
-- Other increases of $0.5 million.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, operating expenses increased $1.5 million to $33.3 million from $31.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 as a result of:
-- A $1.2 million decrease in Fine Chemicals segment incentive
compensation, as a result of recording no incentive compensation in
fiscal 2009.
-- A $0.8 million increase in Specialty Chemicals operating expenses
primarily due to increases in employee benefit costs.
-- An increase in Aerospace Equipment segment operating expenses primarily
due to additional operating expenses in the amount of $1.7 million from
the acquisition of AMPAC ISP Holdings.
-- Consistent corporate expenses, primarily including increases in rent of
$0.5 million, and increases in stock-based compensation of $0.4 million,
offset by a decrease of $1.0 million in incentive compensation, as a
result of recording no incentive compensation in fiscal 2009.
-- Other increases of $0.3 million.
SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS
Fine Chemicals Segment
Our Fine Chemicals segment reflects the operating results of our wholly-owned subsidiary Ampac Fine Chemicals LLC ("AFC").
Quarter Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 2008
-- Revenues were $15.6 million compared to revenues( )of $19.7 million.
-- Operating loss of $0.8 million compared to operating income of $0.6
million.
-- Segment EBITDA was $2.5 million, or 16% of segment revenues, compared to
Segment EBITDA of $3.7 million, or 19% of segment revenues.
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2008
-- Revenues were $67.8 million compared to revenues( )of $76.9 million.
-- Operating loss of $0.4 million compared to operating income of $9.4
million.
-- Segment EBITDA was $9.3 million, or 14% of segment revenues, compared to
Segment EBITDA of $18.9 million, or 25% of segment revenues.
The decrease in Fine Chemicals segment revenues for the fiscal 2009 third quarter compared to the prior fiscal year third quarter is primarily due to a decrease in revenues from central nervous system products. The decrease results from a customer reducing its orders for the product until calendar year 2010.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the decrease in Fine Chemicals segment revenues, compared to the prior fiscal year nine-month period, primarily reflects a decline in revenues from oncology products of 22% due to timing between the interim periods, and a decline in revenues from central nervous system products of 41% related to the aforementioned production deferral.
Our Fine Chemicals segment reported an operating loss of $0.8 million for the fiscal 2009 third quarter and $0.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2009, each representing a significant decline over the prior year periods. The decrease in operating income reflects:
-- A decrease in the gross margin percentage of approximately six points
for the fiscal 2009 third quarter due to lower production volume and the
related impact on gross margin due to less absorption of fixed
manufacturing costs.
-- A decrease in gross margin percentage of approximately thirteen points
for the nine months ended June 30, 2009. In addition to the factor that
contributed to the gross margin decline in the fiscal 2009 third
quarter, the fiscal 2009 year-to-date decline in gross margin percentage
includes:
-- During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, we implemented a new
process for a large-volume anti-viral product and experienced
start-up difficulties that negatively impacted margins for this
product for the first half of fiscal 2009. These factors, combined
with price reductions, account for approximately eight points in the
gross margin decline for the fiscal 2009 nine-month period.
-- A decrease in revenues for central nervous system products,
including a price reduction for a large-volume product, account for
approximately two points in the gross margin decline.
-- The remaining decline is attributed primarily to product mix.
-- A decrease in incentive compensation, classified as operating expenses,
of $0.4 million for the fiscal 2009 third quarter and $1.2 million for
the nine months ended June 30, 2009, each as compared to the prior year
periods.
Specialty Chemicals Segment
Our Specialty Chemicals segment revenues include the operating results from our perchlorate, sodium azide and Halotron product lines, with perchlorates comprising 89% and 91% of Specialty Chemicals revenues in the fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008 nine-month periods, respectively.
Quarter Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 2008
-- Revenues decreased to $6.3 million from $11.9 million.
-- Operating income was $0.6 million, or 9% of segment revenues, compared
to $6.0 million, or 50% of segment revenues.
-- Segment EBITDA was $0.9 million, or 14% of segment revenues, compared to
$6.3 million, or 53% of segment revenues.
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2008
-- Revenues increased to $40.9 million from $40.3 million.
-- Operating income was $16.5 million, or 40% of segment revenues, compared
to $16.8 million, or 42% of segment revenues.
-- Segment EBITDA was $17.4 million, or 43% of segment revenues, compared
to $19.2 million, or 48% of segment revenues.
The variances in Specialty Chemicals revenues reflect the following factors:
-- A 75% decrease in perchlorate volume and a 70% increase in the related
average price per pound for the fiscal 2009 third quarter.
-- A 25% decrease in perchlorate volume and a 32% increase in the related
average price per pound for the nine months ended June 30, 2009.
-- Sodium azide revenues increased $1.3 million for the nine-month period
ended June 30, 2009.
-- Halotron revenues decreased $0.5 million for the nine-month period ended
June 30, 2009.
The decreases in perchlorate volume for the fiscal 2009 third quarter and nine-month period reflect the timing of Grade I ammonium perchlorate ("AP") orders among the fiscal 2009 quarterly periods. The average price per pound increased for the fiscal 2009 third quarter and nine-month period because we sold more specialized blend product than in the comparable prior fiscal year periods.
For the fiscal 2009 nine-month period, the greatest contribution to segment revenue was product for the Space Shuttle Reusable Solid Rocket Motor ("RSRM") program. We currently expect annual demand for Grade I AP in fiscal 2009 to be consistent with fiscal 2008, and as a result, our fiscal 2009 fourth quarter is anticipated to reflect a significant volume and revenue increase over our fiscal 2009 third quarter. Increases in demand in fiscal 2009 for the Space Shuttle RSRM program, the Atlas V Solid Rocket Booster ("SRB") program and the Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System ("MLRS") program should offset declines from the completion in fiscal 2008 of the three-year Minuteman III propulsion replacement program.
Specialty Chemicals operating income was 9% of segment revenues, for the fiscal 2009 third quarter compared to 50% of segment revenues for the fiscal 2008 third quarter. This decrease is primarily due to lower perchlorate volume in the fiscal 2009 third quarter which affects operating margins in two ways. For the fiscal 2009 third quarter, perchlorates comprised 72% of Specialty Chemicals segment revenues compared to 89% in the prior year third quarter. The change in product mix to lower-margin azide and Halotron products was the primary contributor to a twenty-two point reduction in Specialty Chemicals segment gross margins. The remaining decline in operating income as a percentage of segment revenues is primarily attributed to the effect of having relatively fixed general and administrative expenses with lower gross profit than the prior year period.
For the fiscal 2009 nine-month period, Specialty Chemicals segment operating income was 40% of revenues compared to 42% for the prior year nine-month period. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues was consistent between the nine-month periods. Operating expenses increased $0.8 million primarily due to increases in employee benefit costs.
Aerospace Equipment Segment
Our Aerospace Equipment segment reflects the operating results of our wholly-owned subsidiary Ampac-ISP Corp. ("ISP") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Effective October 1, 2008, we completed the acquisition of Marotta Holdings Limited (subsequently renamed Ampac ISP Holdings Limited) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively "AMPAC ISP Holdings"). Combined with our existing Aerospace Equipment operations in Westcott, U.K., these operations constitute AMPAC ISP Europe.
Quarter Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 2008
-- Revenues increased 169% to $9.1 million from $3.4 million.
-- Operating income was $0.4 million compared to an operating loss of $0.3
million.
-- Segment EBITDA was $0.8 million compared to ($0.3) million.
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2008
-- Revenues increased 94% to $22.0 million from $11.4 million.
-- Operating income was $1.6 million compared to $0.2 million.
-- Segment EBITDA was $2.6 million, or 12% of segment revenues, compared to
$0.4 million, or 4% of segment revenues.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, Aerospace Equipment segment revenues increased $10.6 million due to both organic growth and the AMPAC ISP Holdings acquisition. AMPAC ISP Holdings contributed $4.0 million in revenues. The remainder of the revenue increase is primarily attributed to this segment's U.S. operations which experienced success in the latter part of fiscal 2008 with new contract awards. This improvement in backlog resulted in revenue increases in the fiscal 2009 periods.
The improvement in operating income for each of the fiscal 2009 periods is largely a function of the higher revenue levels which contributed more gross margins to cover general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses have increased during the 2009 periods, but at a slower rate than the revenue growth.
AMPAC ISP Holdings contributed segment EBITDA of approximately $0.4 million for the fiscal 2009 nine-month period.
CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY HIGHLIGHTS
Liquidity - As of June 30, 2009, we had cash balances of $25.0 million and no cash borrowings against our $20.0 million revolving credit line. In addition, we were in compliance with the various covenants contained in our credit agreements.
Operating Cash Flows - Operating activities provided cash of $11.3 million for our fiscal 2009 nine-month period compared to $21.1 million for the prior fiscal year nine-month period, resulting in a decrease of $9.8 million.
Significant components of the change in cash flow from operating activities include:
-- A decrease in cash provided by Adjusted EBITDA of $10.2 million.
-- An increase in cash used for working capital accounts of $6.0 million,
excluding the effects of interest and income taxes.
-- A decrease in cash taxes paid of $4.3 million.
-- An increase in cash used for environmental remediation of $0.2 million.
-- Other increases in cash provided by operating activities of $2.3
million.
The increase in cash used for working capital accounts is primarily due to an increase in working capital requirements to support the revenue growth of our Aerospace Equipment segment.
We consider these working capital changes to be routine and within the normal production cycle of our products. The production of certain fine chemical products requires a length of time that exceeds one quarter. Therefore, in any given quarter, accounts receivable, work-in-progress inventory or deferred revenues can increase or decrease significantly. We expect that our working capital may vary normally by as much as $10.0 million from quarter to quarter.
For fiscal 2009, the Company does not anticipate paying federal income taxes based on the anticipated reduction in income and the affects of timing difference in expense deductions. As a result, cash tax requirements are significantly reduced in fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008.
Other increases in cash provided by operating activities primarily reflect the timing of contributions to our defined benefit pension plans.
Investing Cash Flows -
-- Capital expenditures decreased by $3.7 million in the fiscal 2009
nine-month period as compared to prior fiscal year nine-month period.
-- Cash used for acquisition of business reflects the purchase of AMPAC ISP
Holdings for $7.1 million, net of cash acquired of $0.4 million.
OUTLOOK
We are reaffirming our most recent earnings guidance for fiscal 2009. We expect consolidated revenues for fiscal 2009 of at least $193.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA to range from $29 million to $32 million. We are anticipating our capital expenditures for fiscal 2009 to be approximately $10.0 million.
The low end of the range of our fiscal 2009 guidance for Adjusted EBITDA is computed by adding estimated amounts for depreciation and amortization of $16.0 million, interest expense of $10.8 million, share-based compensation expense of $0.7 million and income taxes of $0.5 million to estimated net income of $1.0 million.

RISK FACTORS/FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this earnings release that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including without limitation the statement regarding one of the significant factors that will affect our consolidated gross margins in the future, the statement regarding expected consolidated revenues for fiscal 2009 and expected Adjusted EBITDA, the statement regarding anticipated capital expenditures, statements regarding our beliefs about future demand for, and related volume of and revenue from sales of, AP, in particular Grade I AP, statements regarding our working capital changes and future variations, statements regarding anticipated federal income tax payments and related cash tax requirements, and statements in the "Outlook" section of this earnings release. Words such as "anticipate", "expect", "should", "may", "can" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The inclusion of forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company that any of its expectations will be achieved. Actual results may differ materially from future results or outcomes expressed or implied by forward-looking statements set forth in the release due to risks, uncertainties and other important factors inherent in the Company's business. Factors that might cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, the following:
-- We depend on a limited number of customers for most of our sales in our
Specialty Chemicals, Aerospace Equipment and Fine Chemicals segments and
the loss of one or more of these customers could have a material adverse
effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
-- The inherent limitations of our fixed-price or similar contracts may
impact our profitability.
-- The numerous and often complex laws and regulations and regulatory
oversight to which our operations and properties are subject, the cost
of compliance, and the effect of any failure to comply could reduce our
profitability and liquidity.
-- A significant portion of our business depends on contracts with the
government or its prime contractors and these contracts are impacted by
governmental priorities and are subject to potential fluctuations in
funding or early termination, including for convenience, any of which
could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial
condition or cash flows.
-- We may be subject to potentially material costs and liabilities in
connection with environmental liabilities.
-- Although we have established an environmental reserve for remediation
activities in Henderson, Nevada, given the many uncertainties involved
in assessing environmental liabilities, our environmental-related risks
may from time to time exceed any related reserves.
-- For each of our Specialty Chemicals, Fine Chemicals and Aerospace
Equipment segments, most production is conducted in a single facility
and any significant disruption or delay at a particular facility could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and
results of operations.
-- The release or explosion of dangerous materials used in our business
could disrupt our operations and cause us to incur additional costs and
liability.
-- Disruptions in the supply of key raw materials and difficulties in the
supplier qualification process, as well as increases in prices of raw
materials, could adversely impact our operations.
-- Each of our Specialty Chemicals, Fine Chemicals and Aerospace Equipment
segments may be unable to comply with customer specifications and
manufacturing instructions or may experience delays or other problems
with existing or new products, which could result in increased costs,
losses of sales and potential breach of customer contracts.
-- Successful commercialization of pharmaceutical products and product line
extensions is very difficult and subject to many uncertainties. If a
customer is not able to successfully commercialize its products for
which AFC produces compounds or if a product is subsequently recalled,
then the operating results of AFC may be negatively impacted.
-- A strike or other work stoppage, or the inability to renew collective
bargaining agreements on favorable terms, could have a material adverse
effect on the cost structure and operational capabilities of AFC.
-- The pharmaceutical fine chemicals industry is a capital-intensive
industry and if AFC does not have sufficient financial resources to
finance the necessary capital expenditures, its business and results of
operations may be harmed.
-- We may be subject to potential liability claims for our products or
services that could affect our earnings and financial condition and harm
our reputation.
-- Technology innovations in the markets that we serve may create
alternatives to our products and result in reduced sales.
-- We are subject to strong competition in certain industries in which we
participate and therefore may not be able to compete successfully.
-- Due to the nature of our business, our sales levels may fluctuate
causing our quarterly operating results to fluctuate.
-- The inherent volatility of the chemical industry affects our capacity
utilization and causes fluctuations in our results of operations.
-- A loss of key personnel or highly skilled employees could disrupt our
operations.
-- We may continue to expand our operations in part through acquisitions,
which could divert management's attention and expose us to
unanticipated liabilities and costs. We may experience difficulties
integrating the acquired operations, and we may incur costs relating to
acquisitions that are never consummated.
-- We have a substantial amount of debt, and the cost of servicing that
debt could adversely affect our ability to take actions, our liquidity
or our financial condition.
-- If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt
and fund our operating costs, our liquidity may be adversely affected.
-- Significant changes in discount rates, rates of return on pension
assets, mortality tables and other factors could affect our estimates of
pension obligations, which in turn could affect future funding
requirements and related costs and impact our future earnings.
-- Our shareholder rights plan, Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended, and Amended and Restated By-laws discourage unsolicited
takeover proposals and could prevent stockholders from realizing a
premium on their common stock.
-- Our proprietary and intellectual property rights may be violated,
compromised, circumvented or invalidated, which could damage our
operations.

(a) Segment EBITDA is defined as segment operating income (loss) plus
depreciation and amortization.
(b) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before income tax
expense (benefit), interest expense, depreciation and amortization,
share-based compensation and environmental remediation charges (if
any).
Segment EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not financial measures calculated
in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to
income (loss) from operations as performance measures. Each EBITDA
measure is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because
management believes that each is a useful performance measure that is
widely used within the industries in which we operate. In addition, EBITDA
measures are significant measurements for covenant compliance under our
revolving credit facility. Each EBITDA measure is not calculated in the
same manner by all companies and, accordingly, may not be an appropriate
measure for comparison.
