EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
This Amendment No. 1 to the quarterly report of Giga-tronics Incorporated (“the Company”) on Form 10-Q/A (“Form 10-Q/A” or “Amended Filing”) amends our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010, which was originally filed on November 3, 2011 (“Original Filing”). This amendment is being filed for the purpose of restating certain amounts in the Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part I, Item 2, Controls and Procedures in Part I, Item 4T and Exhibits in Part II, Item 6.
 
Subsequent to filing the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended March 26, 2011 and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 25, 2011, September 24, 2011 and December 31, 2011, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset should have been   maintained as of June 26, 2010 and as of all subsequent quarters through December 31, 2011.  Management determined that it was necessary to maintain the valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets after considering information that should have been used to measure the positive and negative evidence regarding the ultimate realization of the net deferred tax assets in the original assessment.
 
Realization of the net deferred tax asset is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income.  In its reassessment, Management concluded that objective and verifiable negative evidence represented by historic losses outweighed more subjective positive evidence of anticipated future income.  As a result, the Company determined it necessary to maintain a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset; restated its financial statements and filed an amended Form 10-K for the year ended March 26, 2011 on June 19, 2012.  The Company has also filed amended quarterly reports for the quarters ended June 25, 2011, September 24, 2011 and December 31, 2011.
 
The results of this change on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 24, 2011 and March 26, 2011, Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010, and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010, are discussed under Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.  The restatement reflects non-cash adjustments and has no effect on previously reported operating income results.
 
Pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Part II, Item 6 has also been amended to contain the currently dated certifications from the company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer as required by Section 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The certifications of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are attached to this Amended Filing as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2.
 
All information in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the three months and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010, as amended by this Amendment No. 1, speaks as of the date of the original filing of our Form 10-Q for such periods and does not reflect any subsequent information or events, except as expressly noted in this Amendment No. 1 and except for Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2. All information contained in this Amendment No. 1 is subject to updating and supplementing as provided in our reports, as amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the date of the initial filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
(1)           Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Giga-tronics Incorporated (the “Company”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year.  In the opinion of management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring entries) necessary to make the consolidated results of operations for the interim periods a fair statement of such operations.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended March 26, 2011.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation.

(2)           Restatement
 
This filing amends and restates our previously reported financial statements for the three and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 to reflect a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.  Subsequent to filing the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended March 26, 2011 and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 25, 2011, September 24, 2011 and December 31, 2011, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset should have been maintained as of June 26, 2010 and as of all subsequent quarters through December 31, 2011.  Management determined that it was necessary to maintain the valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets after considering information that should have been used to measure the positive and negative evidence regarding the ultimate realization of the net deferred tax assets in the original assessment.
 
Realization of the net deferred tax asset is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income.  In its reassessment, Management concluded that objective and verifiable negative evidence represented by historic losses outweighed more subjective positive evidence of anticipated future income.  As a result, the Company determined it necessary to maintain a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset; restated its financial statements and filed an amended Form 10-K for the year ended March 26, 2011 on June 19, 2012.  The Company has also filed amended quarterly reports for the quarters ended June 25, 2011, September 24, 2011 and December 31, 2011.

(3)       Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue when there is evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. This occurs when products are shipped or the customer accepts title transfer.  If the arrangement involves acceptance terms, the Company defers revenue until product acceptance is received.  On certain large development contracts, revenue is recognized upon achievement of substantive milestones.  Determining whether a milestone is substantive is a matter of judgment and that assessment is performed only at the inception of the arrangement. The consideration earned from the achievement of a milestone must meet all of the following for the milestone to be considered substantive:

a.
It is commensurate with either of the following:
 
1.
The Company’s performance to achieve the milestone
 
2.
The enhancement of the value of the delivered item or items as a result of a specific outcome  from the Company's performance to achieve the milestone.
b.
It relates solely to past performance.
c.
It is reasonable relative to all of the deliverables and payment terms (including other potential milestone consideration) within the arrangement.

Milestones for revenue recognition are agreed upon with the customer prior to the start of the contract and some milestones will be tied to product shipping while others will be tied to design review.

The Company provides for estimated costs that may be incurred for product warranties at the time of shipment.  The Company’s warranty policy generally provides one to three years depending on the product.  The estimated cost of warranty coverage is based on the Company’s actual historical experience with its current products or similar products.  For new products, the required reserve is based on historical experience of similar products until such time as sufficient historical data has been collected on the new product.  Adjustments are made as new information becomes available.  Please see Footnote 7 for reconciliation of the warranty obligations.

(5)           Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflects the net incremental shares that would be issued if dilutive outstanding stock options were exercised, and dilutive unvested restricted stock were vested, using the treasury stock method.  Certain options are considered antidilutive because the options' exercise prices were above the average market price during the period.  The shares used in per share computations are as follows:

  $ (0.13 )   $ (0.04 )   $ (0.27 )   $ (0.02 )
Net loss per share - diluted
  $ (0.13 )   $ (0.04 )   $ (0.27 )   $ (0.02 )
Stock options not included in computation that could potentially dilute EPS in the future
    784       977       784       977  
Restricted stock awards not included in computation that could potentially dilute EPS in the future
    90       90       90       90  
 
The number of stock options not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the three and six month periods ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 is a result of the Company’s net loss and, therefore, the options are anti-dilutive. The number of restricted stock awards not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the three and six month periods ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 reflect contingently issuable shares for which the performance conditions necessary for the awards to vest had not been met as of September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010. The weighted average exercise price of excluded options was $1.98 and $2.23 as of September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 respectively.

(6)              Share Based Compensation

The Company has established the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan, which provides for the granting of options for up to 1,400,000 shares of Common Stock.  The Company records compensation cost associated with share-based compensation equivalent to the estimated fair value of the awards over the requisite service period.  There were 65,000 options granted in the first half of fiscal 2012 and 135,000 options granted in the first half of fiscal 2011.  The weighted average grant date fair value was $1.37 and $1.59, respectively.  There were no restricted stock awards granted in the first half of fiscal 2012 and 90,000 restricted stock awards granted in the first half of fiscal 2011.  The weighted average grant date fair value was $2.34.  The restricted stock awards are considered fixed awards as the number of shares and fair value are known at the grant date and the fair value at the grant date is amortized over the requisite service period net of estimated forfeitures.  The restricted stock awards are performance-based and one-third will vest annually through 2013 only if certain sales and profit goals are achieved by the Company.  No compensation cost was recognized for restricted stock awards during the three and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 because management believes it is not more likely than not that the performance criteria will be met.

Cash flows resulting from the tax benefits derived from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) are classified as cash flows from financing activities in the statement of cash flows.  These excess tax benefits were not significant for the Company for each of the three and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010.
 
In calculating compensation related to stock option grants, the fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model and the following weighted average assumptions:

The computation of expected volatility used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s share price.  The expected term is estimated based on a review of historical employee exercise behavior with respect to option grants.  The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rates with maturity similar to the expected term of the option on the date of grant.

(9)            Line of Credit

Effective September 15, 2011, the Company secured its revolving line of credit for $2,500,000, with interest payable at prime rate plus 1.5%.  The line of credit expires on September 15, 2012.  The borrowing capacity under this line of credit is based on the Company’s accounts receivable and is secured by all of the assets of the Company.  The Company was in compliance with all required covenants at September 24, 2011.  At September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 there was no balance on the line of credit.

(10)            Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method as codified in Topic 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ending September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 was 0% (as restated) due to a valuation allowance recorded against the net deferred tax asset balance.
 
(11)       Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment.  The objective of this Update is to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. The amendments in the Update permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent.  Previous guidance under Topic 350 required an entity to test goodwill for impairment, on at least an annual basis, by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill (step one). If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the second step of the test must be performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any.  Under the amendments in this Update, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.  The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and early adoption is permitted.  Management does not believe this Update will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

(12)       Subsequent Events

The Company and Alara Capital AVI II, LLC (Alara) formerly Guggenheim Venture Partners, reached an agreement effective October 31, 2011 and expected to close within two weeks, as follows:

 
1)
Alara will purchase 9,997 shares of Giga-tronics Incorporated Preferred Shares at $220.00 per share, for approximately $2.2 million.  The Preferred Shares will convert to 999,700 shares of Common Stock at the buyers’ discretion.  The initial conversion rate will be 100 shares of the Company’s common stock for each Preferred Share, subject to certain adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits and similar events.  Through January 1, 2014, the Preferred Stock Shareholders will receive 110% of 100 times any cash dividend paid per share to Common Stock Shareholders.  After such date it will be 100% of 100 times the Common Stock Cash Dividend, if any.  Liquidation preference for the Preferred Shares will be $231.00 per share.

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

The forward-looking statements included in this report including, without limitation, statements containing the words "believes", "anticipates", "estimates", "expects", "intends" and words of similar import, which reflect management’s best judgment based on factors currently known, involve risks and uncertainties.  Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited to “future orders” and those listed in Giga-tronics’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 26, 2011 Part I, under the heading “Certain Factors Which May Adversely Affect Future Operations or an Investment in Giga-tronics”, and Part II, under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations”.

Overview

Giga-tronics produces instruments, subsystems and sophisticated microwave components that have broad applications in both defense electronics and wireless telecommunications. In the first half of fiscal year 2012, the Company consisted of two operating and reporting segments: Giga-tronics Division and Microsource.

Our business is highly dependent on government spending in the defense electronics sector and on the wireless telecommunications market.   The Company has seen a decrease in defense orders for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2011, whereas commercial orders have remained flat.  The Company has seen an increase in defense orders for the first half of fiscal 2012 versus the same period last year.

Restatement
 
This filing amends and restates our previously reported financial statements for the three and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 to reflect a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.  Subsequent to filing the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended March 26, 2011 and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 25, 2011, September 24, 2011 and December 31, 2011, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset should have been maintained as of June 26, 2010 and as of all subsequent quarters through December 31, 2011.  Management determined that it was necessary to maintain the valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets after considering information that should have been used to measure the positive and negative evidence regarding the ultimate realization of the net deferred tax assets in the original assessment.
 
Realization of the net deferred tax asset is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income.  In its reassessment, Management concluded that objective and verifiable negative evidence represented by historic losses outweighed more subjective positive evidence of anticipated future income.  As a result, the Company determined it necessary to maintain a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset; restated its financial statements and filed an amended Form 10-K for the year ended March 26, 2011 on June 19, 2012.  The Company has also filed amended quarterly reports for the quarters ended June 25, 2011, September 24, 2011 and December 31, 2011.

Operating expenses increased 5% or $110,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 over fiscal 2011 due to an increase of $71,000 in product development expenses and an increase of $40,000 in selling, general and administrative expense. The increase in product development expenses is due to a more aggressive investment in our instrument products.

Operating expenses increased 9% or $349,000 in the first half of fiscal 2012 over fiscal 2011 due to an increase of $266,000 in product development expenses and an increase of $83,000 in selling, general and administrative expense.  The increase in product development expenses as stated above increased research and development in our instrument products.

Giga-tronics recorded loss before income taxes of $666,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 versus loss before income taxes of $175,000 for the same period last year.  The loss before income taxes for the first half of fiscal 2012 was $1,337,000 compared to $119,000 for the first half of fiscal 2011.  The increase in loss before income taxes was primarily due to a decrease in volume, an increase in cost of sales and an increase in operating expenses primarily associated with an increase in R&D efforts in fiscal 2012.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 was 0% (as restated) due to the valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

As of September 24, 2011, Giga-tronics had $2,880,000 in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $1,408,000 as of March 26, 2011.

Working capital at September 24, 2011 was $8,865,000 (as restated) compared to $10,142,000 (as restated) at March 26, 2011.  The decrease in working capital was primarily due to a reduction in accounts receivable offset by higher cash plus a decrease in deferred revenue as a result of shipping finished goods to the customer.

The Company’s current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) at September 24, 2011 was 5.15 (as restated) compared to 4.75 (as restated) on March 26, 2011.

Cash provided by operations amounted to $1,608,000 for the six month period ended September 24, 2011.  Cash provided by operations amounted to $704,000 in the same period of fiscal 2011.  Cash provided by operations year to date for fiscal 2012 is primarily attributed the collection of accounts receivable.  Cash provided by operations in the first half of fiscal 2011 is primarily attributed to a decrease in rent payments due to credits from the landlord and collection of accounts receivable.

Additions to property and equipment were $117,000 in the first half of 2012.  Additions to property and equipment were $359,000 in the first half of 2011.  The capital equipment spending in fiscal 2012 was due to an upgrade of capital equipment enabling the manufacture of new products being released.

Effective September 15, 2011, the Company secured its revolving line of credit for $2,500,000, with interest payable at prime rate plus 1.5%.  The line of credit expires on September 15, 2012.  The borrowing capacity under this line of credit is based on accounts receivable and is secured by all of the assets of the Company.  The Company was in compliance with all required covenants at September 24, 2011.  At September 24, 2011 and September 25, 2010 there was no balance on the line of credit.

Item 4t  -  Controls and Procedures

At the time that our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 24, 2011 was filed on November 3, 2011, 2011 our Chief Executive Officer and then Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 24, 2011. Subsequent to that evaluation, in connection with the restatement and filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and current Chief Financial Officer (acting), concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 24, 2011 because of a material weakness in internal control over the assessment of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

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