Item
4T.
Controls and
Procedures
Disclosure Controls and
Procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of the
Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the
effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term
is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by
this report. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of
any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of
human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and
procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and
procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control
objectives. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s chief executive
officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of July 31, 2009,
the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the
reasons discussed below, to ensure that information relating to the Company,
including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be included in its reports
that it filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and
Exchange Commission rules and forms.
Management’s Report on
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management
of Frequency Electronics is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f)
and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control
system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Because of inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
As
disclosed in its Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2009, the Company has
identified several material weaknesses in its internal control over financial
reporting. While the Company did not conduct a full assessment of the
effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting at July 31, 2009,
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, there were no substantial changes
made to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting since
management’s assessment of April 30, 2009, and therefore the weaknesses
previously identified by management continued to exist at July 31,
2009. Please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended April 30, 2009 for a more detailed discussion of the weaknesses
previously identified by management.
Changes in Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended July 31, 2009 to
which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting.
