PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
HEICO Corporation (the Company) is principally engaged in two business segments:
the manufacture and sale of aerospace products and services through HEICO
Aerospace Corporation (HEICO Aerospace), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company and the acquisition, development, and operation of high technology
medical diagnostic imaging facilities through MediTek Health Corporation
(MediTek), also a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. References in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K to the "Company" include each of the Company's
subsidiaries unless otherwise required by the context.
Financial information concerning the Company's operations in its two
principal industry segments for the three years ended October 31, 1995 appears
in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. For a description of the
general development of these businesses, see the narrative below.
The Company was organized in 1993 creating a new holding company known
as HEICO Corporation and renaming the former holding company (formerly known as
HEICO Corporation, organized in 1957) as HEICO Aerospace Corporation. The
reorganization, which was completed in 1993, did not result in any change in the
business of the Company, its consolidated assets or liabilities or the relative
interests of its shareholders.
AEROSPACE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
PRODUCTS AND DISTRIBUTION
The Company's Aerospace Products and Services business is operated through HEICO
Aerospace and is composed principally of Jet Avion Corporation (Jet Avion), LPI
Industries Corporation (LPI), and Aircraft Technology, Inc. (Aircraft
Technology), all of which are wholly-owned subsidiaries.
JET AVION CORPORATION - Jet Avion, a Florida corporation, is engaged in the
development and sale of certain replacement parts for commercial jet aircraft
engines, principally combustion chambers, combustion chamber parts and other
engine components for Pratt & Whitney JT8D engines, which are used in Boeing 727
and 737 and McDonnell Douglas DC-9 and MD-80 commercial aircraft. In 1991, Jet
Avion commenced an expanded program to obtain additional Federal Aviation
Administration ("FAA") approval to manufacture and sell other replacement parts.
In the last three years, Jet Avion has obtained and is continuing to obtain FAA
approvals on additional replacement parts for: JT8D engines; JT9D engines, which
are used in Boeing 747 and 767, Airbus A300 and A310 and McDonnell Douglas DC-10
aircraft; PW2000 engines, which are utilized in Boeing 757 aircraft; and PW4000
engines which are utilized in Boeing 747 and 767, Airbus A300, A310 and A330 and
McDonnell Douglas MD-11 aircraft.
-2-
Jet Avion sells its jet engine replacement parts principally to
domestic and foreign commercial air carriers and aircraft repair (airmotive)
companies through Jet Avion's sales force.
Jet Avion holds Parts Manufacturing Approvals (PMA) from the FAA for
the JT8D and JT3D combustion chambers and certain other component parts of the
JT3D, JT8D, JT9D, PW2000, and PW4000 engines. With PMA certification, Jet Avion
may manufacture and sell approved replacement parts as FAA certified. This
approval is obtained by submitting to the FAA a data package concerning
replacement parts intended to be manufactured by the Company, and, if the FAA
finds such parts qualify as original part replacements, PMA certification is
then granted. For information regarding pending litigation relating to certain
of Jet Avion's sales, see Item 3 to Part I of this Form 10-K.
LPI INDUSTRIES CORPORATION - LPI, a Florida corporation, is engaged in the
production of a variety of component parts for the aerospace and defense
industry. LPI manufactures and sells these component parts principally to
original equipment manufacturers as a subcontractor and to the U.S. Government
as a replacement parts supplier through LPI's sales force. Orders are obtained
through competitive bidding and generally have contract terms from one to three
years. Currently, orders extending beyond one year are not significant.
Effective in fiscal 1996, LPI became responsible for a substantial
portion of the manufacturing of Jet Avion's products in addition to the LPI
products. This consolidation of manufacturing has allowed the Company to remain
a high quality and cost effective competitor as aerospace and defense industry
customers face prospects of long-term reduction in defense spending and delays
in new airframe deliveries, as well as increased foreign sourcing of jet engine
component production.
AIRCRAFT TECHNOLOGY, INC. - Aircraft Technology is engaged primarily
in the overhaul and repair of certain of JT8D and JT3D jet engine
components and markets its services principally through Jet Avion's
sales force.
ATI Heat Treat, a subsidiary of Aircraft Technology, provides
commercial heat treating and brazing services to various manufacturing companies
including the other HEICO Aerospace subsidiaries.
PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS AND CUSTOMERS
JT8D engine products and services accounted for approximately 51% of the
Company's total consolidated sales in fiscal 1995, 40% in fiscal 1994 and 50% in
fiscal 1993. No one aerospace customer accounted for sales of 10% or more of
consolidated sales during any of the last three fiscal years. Military sales
were less than 1% of the Company's consolidated sales in fiscal 1995.
-3-
COMPETITION
With respect to sales of jet engine replacement parts, the Company competes
mainly with Pratt & Whitney, a division of United Technologies Corporation. The
competition is based on price, service and ability to meet delivery commitments
inasmuch as the Company's parts are interchangeable with the parts produced by
Pratt & Whitney. The Company believes that it supplies a substantial portion of
the market for certain JT8D engine parts for which it holds a PMA from the FAA,
with Pratt & Whitney controlling the balance.
With respect to other aerospace products and services, the Company
competes with a large number of machining, fabrication and repair companies,
some of which have greater financial resources than the Company. Competition is
based mainly on price, quality, service and technical capability.
BACKLOG
The backlog of unshipped orders for aerospace products and services as of
October 31, 1995 was $23 million as compared to $14.3 million as of October 31,
1994 and $10.8 million as of October 31, 1993. The backlog includes amounts
based on estimated quantities provided by customers pursuant to certain
contracts aggregating approximately $14 million at October 31, 1995.
Substantially all of this backlog of orders as of October 31, 1995 are expected
to be delivered during fiscal 1996. For additional information regarding the
Company's backlog, see Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Backlogs."
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND PRODUCT IMPROVEMENT ACTIVITIES
The Company has developed expanded engineering capabilities to manufacture and
distribute additional jet engine parts as discussed above. In fiscal 1995, 1994
and 1993, the cost of such activities amounted to approximately $1,800,000,
$1,200,000 and $1,000,000, respectively.
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, ETC.
As discussed under "Products and distribution" above, the Company's PMAs from
the FAA are material to the Company's aerospace business. The Company does not
have any patents and believes that the loss of any of its trademarks or licenses
would not materially adversely affect the Company.
RAW MATERIALS
The principal materials used in the manufacture of combustion chambers and
combustion chamber parts are high temperature alloy sheet metal and castings.
The alloy sheet metal and castings, as well as other raw materials, parts and
components used by the Company's aerospace operations, are generally available
from a number of sources and in sufficient quantities to meet current
requirements subject to normal lead times.

HEALTHCARE SERVICES
SERVICES RENDERED
MediTek, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries and investment partnerships in
which such subsidiaries serve as the managing partner, is engaged in the
acquisition, development and operation of high technology medical diagnostic
imaging facilities which specialize in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),
computed axial tomography (CT), ultrasound, and other state-of-the-art
diagnostic technologies. MediTek offers its operation and management services to
hospitals, physician groups and other health care providers. As of the end of
fiscal 1995, MediTek operated a total of twelve high technology medical
diagnostic facilities (centers). In addition, during fiscal 1995, MediTek
entered into agreements to open its thirteenth and fourteenth centers in fiscal
1996, one in affiliation with a hospital in Newark, New Jersey and another
center in the Birmingham, Alabama area.
The health care industry has expanded rapidly throughout the United
States. This expansion is fueled by the demand for increased levels of patient
care and an increased reliance on high-technology diagnostic and treatment
equipment to support the industry's emphasis on wellness and prevention. Medical
diagnostic imaging systems facilitate the diagnosis of disease and disorders at
an early stage, often minimizing the amount and cost of care needed to stabilize
or cure the patient and frequently obviating the need for invasive diagnostic
procedures, such as exploratory surgery. Diagnostic imaging systems are based on
the ability of energy waves to generate images of the body which can be
displayed either on film or on a video monitor. Imaging systems have evolved
from conventional x-ray to the advanced technologies of MRI, CT, nuclear
medicine and ultrasound.
New regulatory and cost containment controls introduced by the
government, insurance carriers and managed care organizations have also caused
health care providers to pursue new approaches to delivering quality services to
meet patient and physician demands while remaining both competitive and
profitable.
MediTek offers the advantage of minimizing the health care provider's
exposure to risk by matching the provider's needs with the appropriate
technology and at the same time offering a full range of services in connection
with purchasing equipment, constructing or remodeling facilities, patient
billing and collection, training technical and support staff and overall
marketing and management services.
MEDICAL REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAMS
Most patients rely upon reimbursement by third parties (such as insurance
carriers, health maintenance and similar organizations, and government health
care programs) to pay for medical services. Because of the high cost of such
procedures, the amount and availability of reimbursement for procedures
performed by MRI, CT and other high technology health care systems impact the
use and revenues of such systems. The Company believes that, due to the
continuing national concern with rising health care costs, the amount of
reimbursement for
-5-
healthcare services, including imaging services, is likely to be reduced. In
addition, efforts to control health care costs could result in increased
limitations on the use of expensive medical technology, including imaging
services. Any significant reduction in reimbursements for imaging services or in
utilization of such services could adversely affect MediTek's business.
Private insurance carriers generally reimburse service providers only
the "reasonable and customary" amounts for medically necessary services.
Reimbursement to MediTek by health maintenance or similar organizations is
generally pursuant to a contractual arrangement involving a substantial price
discount from standard prices. In most cases, the volume of work under such
arrangements compensates for the discounted prices.
Medically necessary services provided to participants in the federal
Medicare program are reimbursed only (i) if such services have been approved for
reimbursement by the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA"), and (ii) in
the amount authorized by Medicare intermediaries (generally insurance companies)
on a geographical basis. The medical services currently provided by MediTek have
been approved for reimbursement by HCFA. There are significant differences in
the Medicare reimbursement rates for services in different locations. Medicare
reimbursement rates are generally, but not always, lower than the reimbursement
rates of third-party insurance carriers.
ACQUISITIONS AND NEW CENTER DEVELOPMENT
During fiscal 1995, MediTek opened two new centers: one in affiliation with a
hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida, the Palms of Pasadena MRI Center and the
second as a free standing center in the Atlanta, Georgia area, the Pinnacle
Imaging Center. In addition, MediTek contracted to open new centers in Newark,
New Jersey, the United MRI Center and in the Birmingham, Alabama area, the
Greystone Imaging Center.
MediTek plans to take advantage of opportunities for growth within the
high technology medical diagnostic services market by continuing to expand its
operations to areas within the United States principally through acquiring and
opening new centers in underserved markets.
See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations and Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a
description of the Company's acquisitions during the past three years.
IMAGING CENTERS, OWNERSHIP AND MODALITIES
The following table sets forth certain information concerning the centers
owned/operated by MediTek as of October 31, 1995. The centers that are not owned
by MediTek, either directly or through a wholly-owned subsidiary, are owned by
partnerships of which MediTek is a general partner. MediTek provides management
services to all of these centers and, accordingly, generally receives a
management services fee ranging from 5% to 16% of center revenues.

MediTek obtains its medical equipment and supplies from various
manufacturers and is not dependent on any one supplier. The volume of equipment
and supply acquisitions allows MediTek to negotiate what it believes are
competitive terms. Acquisition costs for new equipment can vary significantly
depending upon the model and peripheral equipment acquired. Currently,
acquisition costs typically range between $400,000 and $2 million for MRI
equipment, between $125,000 and $1 million for CT equipment and between $30,000
and $250,000 for ultrasound equipment. MediTek, its wholly-owned centers and its
managed partnerships either lease their equipment and facilities under operating
or capital leases or utilize debt financing for their acquisitions.
-7-
COMPETITION
The health care industry in general, and the market for diagnostic imaging
services in particular, are highly competitive. At present, diagnostic imaging
is performed in hospitals, private physician's offices, clinics operated by
group practices of physicians and independent imaging centers. Competition
focuses on physician referrals at the local market level. Principal competitors
of the Company are hospitals and physician-affiliated imaging centers, some of
which have greater resources than the Company. In competing for customers
requiring the opening of a new diagnostic imaging center, such as hospitals or
clinics, MediTek competes with numerous equipment manufacturers, leasing
companies, physician groups and other providers of medical imaging services.
Many of these competitors also have substantially greater resources than the
Company.
In marketing its services to hospitals, physicians, managed care
organizations and other health care providers, MediTek emphasizes its commitment
to quality and the dependability of its service.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
The health care industry is highly regulated. MediTek currently operates in
Florida, Georgia and New Jersey and is subject to various federal and state laws
and regulations concerning such matters as licensing of facilities and
personnel, physician referrals, construction of new health care facilities and
the acquisition of major medical equipment by health care facilities. The
Company believes that MediTek's operations currently comply with all applicable
laws and regulations and will continue to monitor federal and state activities
in enforcing and enacting legislation and regulations which affect its business
to determine what action, if any, may be necessary to comply with pending
legislation or new interpretations of existing laws. However, there can be no
assurance that subsequent laws, changes in present laws or interpretations of
laws will not adversely affect the Company's high technology medical services
business.
The establishment, marketing and operation of MediTek's operations are
subject to state laws prohibiting the practice of medicine by non-physicians and
the rebate or division of fees between physicians and non-physicians. Such laws
may also limit the manner in which patients may be solicited. Any determination
that MediTek is engaged in the unauthorized practice of medicine could have a
materially adverse effect by prohibiting MediTek's subsidiaries or partnerships
from continuing their current procedures for conducting business. Management
believes that its operations do not involve the practice of medicine because all
professional medical services relating to its operations, such as the reading of
the scans and related diagnosis, are separately provided by licensed physicians.
-8-
All of MediTek's subsidiaries and partnerships are subject to the
federal Medicare and Medicaid anti-kickback laws which prohibit the offer,
payment, solicitation or receipt of any form of remuneration in return for
referring Medicare or Medicaid patients or purchasing, leasing, ordering or
arranging for any item or service that is covered by Medicare or Medicaid. The
law provides severe penalties for engaging in prohibited acts, including
criminal sanctions and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The
exclusion from participation in the Medicare-Medicaid programs would materially
adversely affect the Company's high technology medical services business.
In July 1991, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued
"safe harbor" regulations that set forth provisions which, if met, will assure a
partnership that distributions of profits to its partners who refer patients to
or provide services for the partnership will be deemed not to violate the
federal Medicare-Medicaid fraud and abuse statutes. The Company believes that
none of MediTek's partnerships violates such statutes.
In 1993, Congress enacted legislation within the Federal Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993 which generally prohibits physicians from referring
Medicare or Medicaid patients to any entity which provides any of a broad range
of health services (including diagnostic imaging services) if the physician has
(i) an ownership or investment interest in the entity providing such health care
service, or (ii) otherwise receives compensation (broadly defined in the
legislation) from the entity. Further, the entity may not bill for any service
furnished to patients pursuant to a prohibited referral. The legislative
prohibitions became effective January 1, 1995. The Company does not believe that
this legislation will materially adversely affect the structure of its
operations because physician participation in ownership through existing MediTek
partnerships terminated prior to 1995. Further, this legislation could assist
MediTek's operations through increasing MediTek's opportunities to acquire
existing centers at favorable prices if physicians choose to divest themselves
of their ownership to ensure compliance.
Current discussions within the Federal government regarding national
health care reform are emphasizing containment of health care costs as well as
expansion of the number of eligible parties. The Company believes that because
of its emphasis on cost-effective, quality health care, it is well-positioned to
take advantage of the reformed delivery system. However, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its goal of maintaining and
increasing its business as a result of such reform.
The States of Florida, New Jersey and Georgia have each enacted laws
that restrict or prohibit physicians from referring patients to health care
facilities in which such physicians have a financial interest. The Florida law
applicable to diagnostic imaging centers became effective October 1994 and
referring physician participation in ownership of existing MediTek partnerships
terminated prior to the legislation's effective date. Although the Company does
not believe that these laws will have a material adverse effect on its
operations in these states, there can be no assurance that these laws will not
be interpreted or applied in such a way as to create such a material adverse
effect, or that these states, or other states in which the Company does
business, will not adopt similar or more restrictive laws or regulations that
could have such a material adverse effect.
-9-
The above referenced Florida legislation also imposed, with certain
exceptions, a cap on the fees charged by all providers of designated health
services (including diagnostic imaging services) equal to 115% of the Medicare
limiting charge for such service (the "Fee Cap"). The Fee Cap was subsequently
found to be unconstitutional and has never been enforced. The new legislation
provided administrative penalties for each violation of these Fee Cap
provisions. As enacted, the legislation contained a provision which exempted
group practices and hospitals from the Fee Cap.
In June 1994, the Second Judicial Circuit Court of Florida, in and for
Leon County (the "State Court") in a lawsuit in which MediTek was a co-plaintiff
ruled that the Fee Caps passed by the State of Florida's legislature violated
the Constitution of the State and, therefore, are unenforceable. In February
1995, the State Court issued an order granting final summary judgment that the
Fee Caps were unconstitutional for providers of diagnostic imaging services. The
State Court's ruling was upheld on appeal.
As a result of the State Court's decision, MediTek is not subject to
the Fee Caps. Although MediTek, the State Court and the State District Court of
Appeals believe that the Fee Caps violate the Florida Constitution, there can be
no assurance that the State Court's decision will not be reversed, or that the
Fee Caps will ultimately be found to be unconstitutional or that the Fee Caps
would not be reinstated retroactively to the initial effective date. Imposition
of Fee Caps could have a materially adverse impact upon MediTek's operations
within Florida, which contributed approximately 51% of MediTek's income from
operations for fiscal 1995.
Many states, including New Jersey and Georgia, have programs
(frequently referred to as "certificate of need" or "CON" programs) that control
and regulate the construction of health care facilities and the acquisition by
health care facilities of major medical equipment. Although such programs vary,
a CON generally is required before constructing a "health care facility" and
before a health care facility acquires capital intensive medical equipment or
services. Some states require a CON for any purchase or lease of major medical
equipment, such as an MRI or CT system, regardless of whether a health care
facility is involved. The CON application process may be lengthy and costly.
MediTek evaluates each opportunity for a new project separately and does not
necessarily reject a potential project simply because it necessitates a CON,
although the time and expense required to obtain a CON would be a factor in
determining whether to proceed.
INSURANCE
MediTek maintains workers' compensation, general liability, commercial property
and professional liability insurance in amounts deemed adequate by management.
There is no assurance, however, that claims will not exceed the amount of the
insurance coverage obtained or that the claims may not be excluded from coverage
under the policies.
BACKLOG
Backlog is not a material aspect of MediTek's business.
-10-
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
MediTek does not engage in any material research and development activities.
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, ETC.
The Company believes that its healthcare services business is not dependent upon
any patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions.
RAW MATERIALS
The Company believes that the chemicals and other materials and supplies used in
its healthcare services business are readily available from a number of sources.
GENERAL
EMPLOYEES
At the end of fiscal 1995, the Company and its subsidiaries employed
approximately 310 persons, of which 195 were employed within the aerospace
products and services segment and 110 were employed within the healthcare
services segment.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
Compliance with federal, state and local provisions relating to the protection
of the environment has not had and is not expected to have a material effect
upon the capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position of the Company.
SEASONALITY
The Company believes that its business activities are not seasonal.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC OPERATIONS AND EXPORT
SALES
The Company has no operations located outside of the United States. See Note 12
to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding
the Company's export sales.
-11-
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company's headquarters is located at 3000 Taft Street, Hollywood, Florida
and occupies approximately 5,000 square feet of office space at this location.
HEICO Aerospace and its subsidiaries occupy the remainder of this 140,000 square
foot facility, which is owned by HEICO Aerospace.
MediTek occupies 4,600 square feet for its home office in Miami,
Florida, under a lease expiring in 1996 with a renewable one year term. In
addition, MediTek owns two medical condominium suites utilized for one of its
medical imaging centers aggregating approximately 4,300 square feet. MediTek's
six other centers, excluding five centers owned through partnerships, occupy
facilities ranging in size from approximately 1,000 to 4,100 square feet,
containing approximately 19,000 square feet of space in the aggregate. Center
leases expire between September 1997 and August 2005 and, in certain instances,
contain options to renew.
The Company and its subsidiaries have adequate capacity to handle their
anticipated needs for the foreseeable future. The real property owned by the
Company is subject to mortgages. See Notes 6 and 7 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.
-12-
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In November 1989, HEICO Aerospace and Jet Avion were named defendants in a
complaint filed by United Technologies Corporation (United) in the United States
District court for the Southern District of Florida. The complaint, as amended
in fiscal 1995, alleges infringement of a patent, misappropriation of trade
secrets and unfair competition relating to certain jet engine parts and coatings
sold by Jet Avion in competition with Pratt & Whitney, a division of United.
United seeks approximately $10 million in damages for the patent infringement
and approximately $30 million in damages for the misappropriation of trade
secrets and the unfair competition claims. The aggregate damages referred to in
the preceding sentence do not exceed approximately $30 million because a portion
of the misappropriation and unfair competition damages duplicate the $10 million
patent infringement damages. The complaint also seeks, among other things,
pre-judgment interest and treble damages.
In July and November 1995, the Company filed its answers to United's
complaint denying the allegations. In addition, the Company filed counterclaims
against United for, among other things, malicious prosecution, trade
disparagement, tortious interference, unfair competition and antitrust
violations. The Company is seeking treble, compensatory and punitive damages in
amounts to be determined at trial. United filed its answer denying certain
counterclaims and moved to dismiss other counterclaims. No trial date has been
set.
Based on currently known facts, the Company's legal counsel has advised
that it believes that the Company should be able to successfully defend the
patent infringement claims alleged in United's complaint. With respect to the
misappropriation and unfair competition claims, legal counsel to the Company has
advised that it believes the likelihood that United will be able to prove a case
regarding such claims within the statute of limitations is remote. Further, the
Company intends to vigorously pursue its counterclaims against United. The
ultimate outcome of this litigation is not certain at this time and no provision
for gain or loss, if any, has been made in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
The Company is involved in various other legal actions arising in the
normal course of business. After taking into consideration legal counsel's
evaluation of such actions, management is of the opinion that the outcome of
these other matters will not have a significant effect on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Net sales in fiscal 1995 totaled $40,379,000, up 25% when compared to net sales
of $32,393,000 in fiscal 1994 and up 56% when compared to net sales of
$25,882,000 in fiscal 1993. The Company's net sales exclude revenues of $5.8
million in fiscal 1995, $6.4 million in fiscal 1994 and $6.5 million in fiscal
1993 from three medical diagnostic imaging centers, in which the Company's
partnership investments are accounted for under the equity method.
The Company's net income totaled $2,695,000, or $.92 per share, in
fiscal 1995, improving significantly from net income of $1,851,000, or $.67 per
share, in fiscal 1994 and $984,000, or $.34 per share, in fiscal 1993. The
Company paid a 10% stock dividend in July 1995 and declared a second 10% stock
dividend in December 1995. All earnings per share, dividends per share and
common stock outstanding information has been adjusted to give effect to these
stock dividends for all years presented.
Net income for fiscal 1994 included $381,000, or $.14 per share, from
the cumulative effect on prior years of a change in accounting for income taxes.
Net income for fiscal 1993 included $450,000, or $.16 per share, related to the
disposal of a discontinued operation in fiscal 1990. Net income from continuing
operations, which excludes both these items, increased from $.19 per share in
fiscal 1993 and $.53 per share in fiscal 1994 to $.92 per share in fiscal 1995.
The increase in fiscal 1995 sales over fiscal 1994 sales reflects a 33%
increase in revenues of the Company's aerospace products and services segment
(HEICO Aerospace) and a 12% increase in revenues of the Company's healthcare
services segment (MediTek).
Net sales of HEICO Aerospace totaled $25,613,000, $19,212,000 and
$19,856,000 in fiscal years 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The increase in
HEICO Aerospace sales from fiscal 1994 to fiscal 1995 is principally due to an
increase in the sales volumes of jet engine parts. HEICO Aerospace sales in
fiscal 1994 remained relatively flat when compared to sales in fiscal 1993
primarily due to the increases in sales volumes of jet engine parts being offset
by selling price reductions on certain products.
MediTek's net sales, excluding the net sales of the unconsolidated
partnerships, totaled $14,766,000, $13,181,000 and $6,026,000 in fiscal years
1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. These gains result principally from
acquisitions of three medical diagnostic imaging centers and the opening of four
new medical diagnostic imaging centers since the beginning of fiscal 1993. For
further information regarding the acquisitions, see Note 2 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.
The net income improvement in fiscal 1995, fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1993
reflects the improved earnings of both HEICO Aerospace and MediTek as further
discussed below.
-18-
RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
BACKLOGS
The Company's order backlog for HEICO Aerospace products as of the end of fiscal
1995 totaled $23 million including $14 million representing forecasted fiscal
1996 shipments for certain contracts (the "Contracts") pursuant to which
customers provide estimated annual usage. The fiscal 1995 backlog levels,
excluding amounts relating to the Contracts, remained level with the prior year.
The backlog relating to the Contracts increased from $6 million as of the end of
fiscal 1994 principally as a result of increased demand and sales incentives
offered by the Company. MediTek's order backlog is insignificant due to the
nature of its operations.
GROSS MARGINS AND OPERATING EXPENSES
Gross profit margins of HEICO Aerospace averaged 31.7% in fiscal 1995 as
compared to 30.4% in fiscal 1994 and 25.8% in fiscal 1993. The improvement in
HEICO Aerospace margins in fiscal years 1995 and 1994 reflect volume increases
in sales of higher margin products, volume decreases in sales of lower margin
products and manufacturing cost reductions.
Gross profit margins of MediTek averaged 29.7% in fiscal 1995 as
compared to 29.1% in fiscal 1994 and 27.5% in fiscal 1993. The higher margins in
the current year are due principally to improved performance at certain centers
resulting primarily from higher sales volumes and efforts to lower service
costs. The increase in margins in fiscal 1994 is due principally to the addition
of new centers with greater operating margins.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $8.0 million
in fiscal 1995, $7.3 million in fiscal 1994 and $6.3 million in 1993. As a
percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses declined from 24.2% in fiscal 1993 to
22.5% in fiscal 1994 and 19.7% in fiscal 1995, reflecting continuing efforts to
control costs. The $700,000 increase from fiscal 1994 to fiscal 1995 is due
principally to increased general corporate expenses and increased HEICO
Aerospace selling expenses, partially offset by the effects of expense reduction
programs at MediTek. The $1 million increase in SG&A expenses from fiscal 1993
to fiscal 1994 is due principally to the growth of MediTek's operations, an
increase in HEICO Aerospace's sales efforts and an increase in general corporate
expenses.
The equity in the loss of unconsolidated partnerships during the past
three fiscal years is primarily attributable to losses at one center. This
center was merged into a new unconsolidated partnership with another previously
unrelated center in August 1995. The merger has significantly improved
operations of this center and resulted in a decrease in the Company's equity in
loss of unconsolidated partnerships from fiscal 1994 to fiscal 1995. The equity
in loss of unconsolidated partnerships includes costs representing the
management services fee income included in consolidated net sales as part of
healthcare services sales. This income totaled $526,000 in fiscal 1995, $661,000
in fiscal 1994 and $666,000 in fiscal 1993.
-19-
Fiscal 1993 operating expenses also include benefits from insurance
recoveries of certain litigation defense costs in the amount of $190,000. The
Company is also seeking reimbursement for additional previously incurred and
expensed costs. However, no additional recovery, if any, has yet to be recorded.
INCOME FROM OPERATIONS
Fiscal 1995 income from operations of $4,206,000 increased $2.3 million, or
115%, over that of fiscal 1994. Current year income from operations includes
operating income from HEICO Aerospace of $4,907,000, representing a $2.0
million, or 67%, increase over that of fiscal 1994, and operating income from
MediTek of $2,495,000, representing an $880,000, or 54%, increase over that of
fiscal 1994. MediTek's operating income includes the equity in the loss of
unconsolidated partnerships. These improvements in operating income at HEICO
Aerospace and MediTek are due primarily to the increases in sales and gross
margins discussed above.
Fiscal 1994 income from operations of $1,955,000, which represents an
increase of $1.6 million over that of fiscal 1993, reflects operating income
from HEICO Aerospace of $2,938,000 and operating income from MediTek of
$1,615,000. The HEICO Aerospace and MediTek fiscal 1994 income from operations
increased $450,000 and $1,677,000, respectively, over fiscal 1993 amounts due
primarily to the improved gross profit margins at HEICO Aerospace and improved
sales and gross profit margins at MediTek discussed above.
Fiscal 1993 income from operations of $397,000 reflects operating
income from HEICO Aerospace of $2,488,000 offset by an operating loss of $62,000
at MediTek. MediTek, which started operations in September 1991, began to
operate profitably during the second half of fiscal 1993.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Fiscal 1995 interest expense increased by $176,000 over fiscal 1994 interest
expense due primarily to increases in long-term debt associated with equipment
financing and the late fiscal 1994 borrowing from the Company's term loan credit
facility to partially finance MediTek's fiscal 1994 acquisitions (see Note 6 to
the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Interest expense decreased $140,000 in fiscal 1994 from fiscal 1993
principally due to the January 1993 repayment of $10,000,000 of debt borrowed
under a revolving loan during fiscal 1993.
INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME
Interest and other income in fiscal 1995 increased $212,000 over that of fiscal
1994 due principally to an increase in market interest rates, an increase in
invested cash and profits from the sale of certain excess equipment of HEICO
Aerospace.
Fiscal 1994 interest and other income declined by $146,000 from that of
fiscal 1993 due to a decrease in invested cash primarily attributable to the
repayment of the $10 million revolving loan and cash used in acquisitions by
MediTek.
-20-
INCOME TAXES
The Company's effective tax rate in fiscal 1995 was greater than that of fiscal
1994 and fiscal 1993 due principally to the reduced impact of tax benefits on
export sales and investment income as a result of the higher level of income
from operations.
The Company's fiscal 1994 and 1993 effective income tax rates were less
than the statutory rate primarily due to tax benefits on export sales and
investment income, and the reversal of excess tax provisions upon completion of
tax audits. For a detailed analysis of the provisions for income taxes and a
discussion of new income tax accounting standards adopted in fiscal 1994, see
Notes 1 and 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
INCOME FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS BEFORE CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF CHANGE
IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
Fiscal 1995 income from continuing operations before cumulative effect of change
in accounting principle totaled $2,695,000 and increased $1,225,000, or 83%,
over that of fiscal 1994, which increased $936,000, or 175%, over that of fiscal
1993. Both increases were due principally to the aforementioned improvements in
fiscal 1995 and 1994 income from operations.
INFLATION
The Company has generally experienced increases in its costs of labor, materials
and services consistent with overall rates of inflation. The impact of such
increases on the Company's income from continuing operations has been generally
minimized by efforts to lower costs through manufacturing and service
efficiencies and cost reductions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's cash flow from operations aggregated $13.6 million over the last
three years, including $7.1 million in fiscal 1995. The Company's current ratio
remained strong at 3 to 1 as of October 31, 1995 and working capital increased
by $2.1 million in fiscal 1995.
During the past three years, the Company's principal investing
activities were the use of an aggregate of $7.8 million in connection with
acquisitions by MediTek, including $2.1 million in fiscal 1995, the purchase of
$2.9 million of short-term investments during fiscal 1995 as well as purchases
of property, plant and equipment aggregating $3 million which were made
primarily by the aerospace operations.
The Company's principal financing activities during the same three year
period were the use of an aggregate of $12.6 million for the payment of funds
for scheduled payments on short-term debt, long-term debt and capital leases,
including the fiscal 1993 repayment of a $10 million revolving loan. In
addition, the Company received funds from the issuance of long-term debt
aggregating $1.7 million and used funds for the open market purchase of an
aggregate of 96,900 shares of its stock for cash consideration totaling $1.0
million.
-21-
In June 1995, the Company increased the amount available under its
existing credit facility by $2 million to $7 million and improved certain other
terms and conditions of the facility. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements for further information.
Funds necessary for future capital expenditures, debt and capital lease
payments, contingent notes payable related to acquisitions and working capital
requirements are expected to be derived primarily from current cash resources
and internally generated funds.

HEICO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for the years ended October 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, HEICO Aerospace Corporation (HEICO Aerospace),
including its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Jet Avion Corporation (Jet Avion), LPI
Industries Corporation (LPI), and Aircraft Technology, Inc. (Aircraft
Technology), and MediTek Health Corporation (82% owned prior to fiscal 1994) and
its wholly-owned or majority owned subsidiaries and controlled partnerships
(MediTek). MediTek's investments in uncontrolled entities are accounted for
under the equity method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
are eliminated.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the Company considers all
highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
Investments with a maturity of less than one year that are not readily
convertible to cash before their maturity have been classified as short-term
investments. Short-term investments are stated at their fair value (see Note 4).
INVENTORIES
Portions of HEICO Aerospace inventories are stated at the lower of cost or
market, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The
remaining portions of these inventories are stated at the lower of cost or
market, on a per contract basis, with estimated total contract costs being
allocated ratably to all units. The effects of changes in estimated total
contract costs are recognized in the period determined. Losses, if any, are
recognized fully when identified. Inventory amounts set forth in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets do not include any material amounts
related to long-term contracts. MediTek inventories are not material.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization
is provided mainly on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives
of the various assets, including assets recorded under capital leases which are
amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the term of the related
leases. Property, plant and equipment useful lives are as follows:
Buildings and components............. 7 to 55 years
Building improvements................ 3 to 15 years
Machinery and equipment.............. 3 to 20 years
The costs of major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Upon
disposition, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed
-28-
from the accounts and any related gain or loss is reflected in
earnings.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets include the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets
acquired, trademarks and deferred charges which are amortized on the
straight-line method over their legal or estimated useful lives, whichever is
shorter, as follows:
Excess of cost, including con-
tingent consideration as paid,
over the fair market value
of net assets acquired............. 29 to 40 years
Trademarks........................... 7 years
Deferred charges..................... 3 to 20 years
The Company continually evaluates the periods of intangible asset
amortization to determine whether events and circumstances subsequent to the
origination dates of such assets warrant revised estimates of useful lives. In
addition, the Company periodically reviews the excess of cost over the fair
value of net assets acquired (goodwill) to assess recoverability based upon
expectations of undiscounted cash flows and operating income of each
consolidated entity having a material goodwill balance. An impairment would be
recognized in operating results, based upon the difference between each
consolidated entities' respective present value of future cash flows and the
carrying value of the goodwill, if a permanent diminution in value were to
occur. There have not been any significant revised estimates nor recognition of
goodwill impairment during the three years ended October 31, 1995.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenues are recognized on an accrual basis, primarily upon shipment of products
and the rendering of services. MediTek's patient revenues are reduced by
contractual allowances for services billed to third party reimbursement sources
in addition to allowances for doubtful accounts. Revenue and receivable amounts
do not include any material amounts related to long-term contracts.
INCOME TAXES
In fiscal 1994 the Company adopted, effective November 1, 1993, Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
which requires the use of the liability method of accounting for deferred income
taxes. The cumulative effect of this change in accounting for income taxes is a
$381,000 benefit ($.14 per share) and is reported separately in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the year ended October 31, 1994. The provision for
income taxes includes Federal, state and local income taxes currently payable
and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial
statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities.
In fiscal 1993 deferred income taxes are provided for timing
differences between financial and taxable income in accordance with Accounting
Principals Board Opinion No. 11.
INCOME PER SHARE
Income per share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average
-29-
number of shares outstanding plus common share equivalents arising from the
assumed exercise of stock options, if dilutive, and has been adjusted for the
effect of any stock dividends (see Note 3).
NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS
FISCAL 1994 ACQUISITIONS
In March 1994, the Company, through MediTek, acquired effective as of February
1, 1994 the net assets and business of Premier Imaging Associates No. 2, L.P.
(Premier No. 2) for $1,196,000 in cash, a $1,693,000 8% note which is payable
over the period ending June 30, 1996 and is contingent upon the level of future
earnings of the center and a $750,000 non-interest bearing note which is payable
over the period ending June 30, 1996 and is also contingent upon the level of
future earnings of the center. Through October 31, 1995, a total of $1,161,000,
including interest, has been paid on the $1,693,000 and $750,000 contingent
notes. Additional payments on these notes may be made during fiscal year 1996.
In addition, MediTek assumed capital lease obligations for equipment with a
present value aggregating approximately $250,000. The $1,693,000 note is secured
by collateral representing the assets of Premier No. 2. The collateralized
property has a carrying value of approximately $525,000 at October 31, 1995.
Premier No. 2 owns and operates a high technology medical diagnostic imaging
center located in Atlanta, Georgia, which offers Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(MRI) services. As part of the acquisition, MediTek also purchased substantially
all the assets of Imaging Consultants, Inc. (Imaging Consultants), excluding its
rights as the corporate General Partner of Premier No. 2, and all the assets of
Health Services, Inc. (Health Services). Imaging Consultants and Health Services
provided management and equipment maintenance services at the Premier No. 2
center and were affiliated companies. The former corporate General Partner of
Premier No. 2 was also the corporate General Partner of a center purchased
during fiscal 1993 (see Fiscal 1993 acquisitions).
The acquisition of Premier No. 2 has been accounted for as a purchase
and the purchase price (exclusive of contingent consideration) has been assigned
to the net assets acquired based on the fair value of such assets and
liabilities at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over
the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired amounted to $900,000.
Contingent note payments, as paid, are recorded as goodwill. The results of
operations of the Premier No. 2 center are included in the consolidated
statements of operations from February 1, 1994.
The following table presents unaudited proforma operating results as if
the acquisition of Premier No. 2 had occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1993.
The proforma operating results do not purport to present actual operating
results had the acquisition been made at the beginning of fiscal 1993, or
results which may occur in the future.

FISCAL 1993 ACQUISITIONS
As of October 1, 1993, the Company, through MediTek, acquired the net assets and
business of Premier Imaging Associates, L.P. (Premier No. 1) and certain
contract rights for $2,304,000 cash consideration, a $3,263,000 8% note which is
payable over the period ending June 30, 1996 and is contingent upon the level of
future earnings of the center and a $750,000 non-interest bearing note which is
payable over the period ending June 30, 1996 and is also contingent upon the
level of future earnings of the center. Through October 31, 1995, a total of
$2,220,000, including interest, has been paid on the $3,263,000 and $750,000
contingent notes. Additional payments on these notes may be made during fiscal
year 1996. The $3,263,000 note is secured by collateral representing the assets
of Premier No. 1. The collateralized property has a carrying value of
approximately $957,000 at October 31, 1995. Premier No. 1 owns and operates a
high technology medical diagnostic imaging center located in Atlanta, Georgia,
which offers MRI services.
The acquisition of Premier No. 1 has been accounted for as a purchase
and the purchase price (exclusive of contingent consideration) has been assigned
to the net assets acquired based on the fair value of such assets and
liabilities at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over
the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired amounted to $1.7 million.
Contingent note payments, as paid, are recorded as goodwill. The results of
operations of the Premier No. 1 center are included in the consolidated
statements of operations from October 1, 1993.
The following table represents unaudited proforma consolidated
operating results as if the acquisition of the Premier No. 1 center had occurred
at the beginning of fiscal 1993. The proforma consolidated operating results do
not purport to present actual operating results had the acquisition been made at
the beginning of fiscal 1993, or results which may occur in the future.

In July 1993, the Company, through MediTek, purchased the net assets
and business of the Buffalo Diagnostic Center, which was renamed the Imaging
Center of Tampa (ICOT), for $140,000 cash consideration, a $500,000 8% note
which is payable over the period ending October 1, 1996 and is contingent upon
the level of future earnings of the center and the assumption of equipment lease
liabilities totaling $88,000. Through October 31, 1995, a total of $58,000,
including interest, has been paid on the $500,000 contingent note. Additional
payments on this note may be made during fiscal year 1996. This facility offers
MRI, computed axial tomography, nuclear medicine, x-ray and ultrasound
diagnostic services.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and the purchase
price (exclusive of contingent consideration) has been assigned to the net
assets acquired based on the fair market value of such assets and liabilities at
the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of
the identifiable net assets acquired was insignificant. Contingent note
payments, as paid, are recorded as goodwill. ICOT's results of operations are
included in the consolidated results effective as of the purchase date.
Had ICOT been acquired as of the beginning of fiscal 1993, the proforma
consolidated operating results would not have been materially different from the
reported results.
INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO UNCONSOLIDATED PARTNERSHIPS
Condensed unaudited balance sheet and unaudited statements of
operations information for the Company's unconsolidated partnerships at and for
the years ended October 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 are as follows:

----------- ----------- -----------
Loss before income taxes... $ (458,000) $ (506,000) $ (819,000)
=========== =========== ===========
The Company has recorded income for management services rendered to the
unconsolidated partnerships during fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993 in the amounts of
$526,000, $661,000 and $666,000, respectively.
In October 1994, MediTek acquired a portion of the minority interests
of the limited partners in one of the partnerships through which it operated two
centers as a co-general partner for $124,000, increasing MediTek's ownership in
one center from 25% to 40.5% and 50% to 95% in a second center. In November
1994, MediTek increased its ownership in the first of these two centers from
40.5% to 42% for $136,000. In August 1995, the second of these two centers was
merged
-32-
with a previously unrelated medical imaging business to form a new partnership.
MediTek operates this center as a 50% co-general partner for which it
contributed $140,000. In October 1994, MediTek acquired a portion of the
minority interests of the limited partners in a third partnership it operates as
the general partner for $88,000, increasing MediTek's ownership from 37% to
49.5%. In December 1992, MediTek had increased its ownership in this third
partnership from 25% to 37% for $75,000. The Company accounted for these
acquisitions using the purchase method. The excess of the total acquisition cost
of these purchases over the fair market value of the assets acquired was not
significant.
In connection with MediTek's general partnership interest in one of its
unconsolidated partnerships, MediTek indemnified the seller of this general
partnership interest from liability relating to a guarantee and security
agreement for a $1.4 million mortgage on one of the partnership's centers.
NOTE 3 - STOCK DIVIDENDS
In May 1995, the Company's Board of Directors declared a 10% stock dividend that
was paid July 28, 1995. On December 15, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors
declared a second 10% stock dividend payable on February 8, 1996 to shareholders
of record January 16, 1996. These transactions were valued based on the closing
market prices of the Company's stock as of their respective declaration dates.
Retained earnings was charged $7,881,000 as a result of the issuance of a
combined total of 483,558 shares of the Company's common stock. All income per
share, dividend per share and common shares outstanding information has been
retroactively restated to reflect these stock dividends.
NOTE 4 - INVESTMENT IN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company entered into transactions in
which it simultaneously purchased and sold call options on an industry sector
index of equity securities (the Index Options) expiring in November 1995. The
Index Options were purchased with temporary surplus funds of approximately $2.9
million for investment purposes. Prior to the end of fiscal 1995, the Company
traded substantially all of the purchase option position and entered into a
similar purchase option position having the same November 1995 expiration date.
The gain realized in fiscal 1995 fully utilized the Company's $4.6 million
capital loss carryover which was otherwise scheduled to expire. As of October
31, 1995, the investments in the purchased and sold call option contracts are
netted because the terms of the Index Option contracts provide for a right of
offset. The net investment as of October 31, 1995 in the amount of $2.9 million
is recorded at fair market value as represented by the net cash proceeds
realized upon termination of the option contracts in November 1995 and is
included in short-term investments. Upon termination of the option contracts in
November 1995, the Company recognized a $4.6 million capital loss which will be
available for carryover of a five year period. For financial statement purposes,
the transactions did not result in any material gain or loss.
-33-
NOTE 5 - SALE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
In May 1994, the Company, through MediTek, entered into an agreement with an
unaffiliated third party whereby it can sell certain MediTek accounts receivable
with recourse. The aggregate proceeds of purchased receivables that remain
uncollected can not exceed $3,000,000 at any point in time. The proceeds from
the sale of receivables during fiscal 1995 and 1994 totaled $8,626,000 and
$3,187,000, respectively. As of October 31, 1995, the Company was contingently
liable for the repurchase of $1,992,000 of sold accounts receivables that
remained uncollected. The Company has an accrual of $1,916,000, including
$950,000 for contractual allowances, which management believes is an adequate
provision against any such uncollected receivables. The fees related to the sale
of receivables have been included in cost of healthcare services.

========== ==========
The amount of long-term debt maturing in each of the next five years is
$794,000 in fiscal 1996, $826,000 in fiscal 1997, $542,000 in fiscal 1998,
$997,000 in fiscal 1999 and $527,000 in fiscal 2000.
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT REVENUE BONDS
The industrial development revenue bonds represent bonds issued by Broward
County, Florida. The bonds are due April 2008 and bear interest at a variable
rate calculated weekly (4.05% at October 31, 1995). The bonds are secured by a
letter of credit expiring in February 1999 and a mortgage on the related
properties pledged as collateral. The pledged properties have a carrying value
of approximately $1,614,000 at October 31, 1995.
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
The Company has a $7 million credit facility available for funding acquisitions,
working capital and general corporate requirements. Borrowings under this credit
facility bear interest at 1/4% over the bank's prime rate, adjusted daily, and
are convertible to term loans that bear interest, at the Company's option, at
1/4% over the bank's
-34-
prime rate, adjusted daily, or a fixed interest rate of 200 basis points over
the bank's prime rate in effect on the day of the conversion. Term loan
borrowings under the credit facility are payable in 36 to 48 monthly
installments. The credit facility is secured by substantially all the assets of
HEICO Aerospace and its subsidiaries and the guarantee of MediTek. The revolving
portion of the facility expires in April 1997 and may be renewed annually by
mutual agreement. This credit facility and the letter of credit securing the
industrial development revenue bonds contain covenants which, among other
things, restrict borrowings, capital expenditures and cash dividends, require
the maintenance of certain net worth, working capital and debt service amounts
and ratios, require the continued employment of the current Chairman, President

NOTE 9 - PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS PLAN
In November 1993, pursuant to a plan adopted by the Board of Directors on such
date, the Board declared a distribution of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right
(the Rights) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $.01 per
share, of the Company. The Rights trade with the common stock and are not
exercisable or transferable apart from the common stock until after a person or
group either acquires 15% or more of the outstanding common stock or commences
or announces an intention to commence a tender offer for 30% or more of the
outstanding common stock. Absent either of the aforementioned events
transpiring, the Rights will expire at the close of business on November 2,
2003.
The Rights have certain anti-takeover effects and, therefore, will
cause substantial dilution to a person or group who attempts to acquire the
Company on terms not approved by the Company's Board of Directors or who
acquires 15% or more of the outstanding common stock without approval of the
Company's Board of Directors. The Rights should not interfere with any merger or
other business combination approved by the Board since they may be redeemed by
the Company at $.01 per Right at any time until the close of business on the
tenth day after a person or group has obtained beneficial ownership of 15% or
more of the outstanding common stock or until a person commences or announces an
intention to commence a tender offer for 30% or more of the outstanding common
stock.
-38-
NOTE 10 - STOCK OPTIONS
The Company currently has two stock option plans, the 1993 Stock Option Plan
(1993 Plan) and the Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (NQSOP). A third plan, the
Combined Stock Option Plan expired in February 1993 and was replaced by the 1993
Plan. Under the terms of the plans, a total of 840,651 shares of the Company's
stock has been reserved for issuance to directors, officers and key employees.
Options issued under the 1993 Plan may be designated incentive stock options
(ISO) or non-qualified stock options (NQSO). ISOs are granted at not less than
100% of the fair market value at the date of grant (110% thereof in certain
cases) and are exercisable in percentages specified at date of grant over a
period up to ten years. Only employees are eligible to receive ISOs. NQSOs may
be granted at less than fair market value and may be immediately exercisable.
Options granted under the NQSOP may be granted to directors, officers and
employees at no less than the fair market value at the date of grant and are
generally exercisable in four equal annual installments commencing one year from
date of grant.
Information concerning stock option transactions for the three years
ended October 31, 1995 follows:

NOTE 11 - RETIREMENT PLANS
The Company has a qualified defined contribution retirement plan (the Plan)
under which eligible employees of the Company and its participating subsidiaries
may contribute up to 10% of their annual compensation, as defined, and the
Company will contribute specified percentages ranging from 25% to 50% of
employee contributions up to 3% of annual pay in Company stock or cash, as
determined by the Company. The Plan also provides that the Company may
contribute additional amounts in its common stock or cash at the discretion of
the Board of Directors.
Concurrent with establishing the Plan, the Company sold to the Plan
181,500 shares of treasury stock in exchange for a $1,588,000 note payable to
the Company, which represented the then fair market value of such stock. This
note was fully paid during fiscal 1991. During fiscal 1990, the Company loaned
the Plan $519,000 (the 1990 Note Receivable) to fund the termination
distribution made to the employees of a discontinued business segment completed
in 1990. The 1990 Note Receivable originally had 67,772 shares of the Company's
stock pledged as collateral. These shares of stock became available as
collateral within the Plan to the extent terminated employees elected to receive
a cash distribution in lieu of the Company's stock. In September 1992, the
Company sold 363,000 additional shares of the Company's stock to the Plan for an
aggregate price of $4,122,000 entirely financed through a promissory note with
the Company (the 1992 Note Receivable). The 1992 Note Receivable also includes
$109,000 as the refinanced principal and accrued interest from the 1990 Note
Receivable. The 1992 Note Receivable is payable in nine equal annual
installments, inclusive of principal and interest at the rate of 8% per annum,
of $655,000 each and a final installment of $640,000. The 1992 Note Receivable
is prepayable in full or in part without penalty at any time.
Participants receive 100% vesting in employee contributions. Vesting in
Company contributions is based on number of years of service. Contributions to
the Plan charged to income from continuing operations for fiscal 1995, 1994 and
1993 totaled $351,000, $212,000 and $190,000, respectively, net of interest
income earned on the note received from the Plan of $299,000 in fiscal 1995,
$331,000 in fiscal 1994 and $355,000 in fiscal 1993.
In May 1991, the Company established a Directors Retirement Plan
covering its then current directors. The net assets of this plan as of October
31, 1995 are not material to the financial position of the Company. During
fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993, $75,000, $73,000 and $73,000, respectively, was
expensed for this plan.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
Fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993 costs of products and services sold include
approximately $1,800,000, $1,200,000 and $1,000,000, respectively, of new
product research and development expenses pertaining to the aerospace products
and services segment.
INSURANCE RECOVERIES
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1993, the Company recorded insurance recoveries
of certain litigation defense costs previously incurred and expensed by the
Company. The Company is also seeking reimbursement for other previously incurred
and expensed defense costs related to this litigation. However, no additional
recovery has yet to be recorded for these other previously incurred costs.
The amounts recovered to date have been recorded in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Operations net of the defense costs incurred. The
insurance recoveries, net of the defense costs incurred, increased fiscal 1993
net income by $119,000 ($.04 per share).
EQUITY IN LOSS OF UNCONSOLIDATED PARTNERSHIPS
The equity in loss of unconsolidated partnerships reported in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations has been reduced by interest income on cash advances to
the unconsolidated partnerships of $259,000 in 1995, $285,000 in 1994 and
$212,000 in 1993.
INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In the first quarter of fiscal 1993, the Company recorded income from
discontinued operations of $450,000 ($.16 per share) resulting from the reversal
of a portion of reserves for costs relating to operations disposed of in 1990,
which were determined not to be required. There is no income tax charge related
to this income since such costs resulted in a capital loss carryforward.
SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES OF CASH FLOW INFORMATION ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Cash paid for interest was $386,000, $193,000 and $407,000 in 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively. Cash paid for income taxes was $1,400,000, $881,000 and
$89,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

Non-cash investing and financing activities related to the acquisitions
and contingent note payments during fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993 were as follows:

Non-cash investing and financing activities related to purchases of
property, plant and equipment financed by capital leases during fiscal 1995 and
1994 amounted to $2,257,000 and $1,044,000, respectively. There were no
significant non-cash investing and financing activities related to purchases of
property, plant and equipment during fiscal 1993. Non-cash investing and
financing activities during fiscal 1995 also included purchases of property,
plant and equipment of $2,269,000, investments in and advances to unconsolidated
partnerships of $862,000, deferred charges of $461,000 and other assets of
$139,000 which were financed by capital leases assumed, issuance of a note
payable and distributions from an unconsolidated partnership during fiscal 1995.
Additionally, retained earnings was charged $7,881,000 as a result of the two
10% stock dividends described in Note 3 above.
NOTE 15 - PENDING LITIGATION
In November 1989, HEICO Aerospace and Jet Avion were named defendants in a
complaint filed by United Technologies Corporation (United) in the United States
District court for the Southern District of Florida. The complaint, as amended
in fiscal 1995, alleges infringement of a patent, misappropriation of trade
secrets and unfair competition relating to certain jet engine parts and coatings
sold by Jet Avion in competition with Pratt & Whitney, a division of United.
United seeks approximately $10 million in damages for the patent infringement
and approximately $30 million in damages for the misappropriation of trade
secrets and the unfair competition claims. The aggregate damages referred to in
the preceding sentence do not exceed approximately $30 million because a portion
of the misappropriation and unfair competition damages duplicate the $10 million
patent infringement damages. The complaint also seeks, among other things,
pre-judgment interest and treble damages.
In July and November 1995, the Company filed its answers to United's
complaint denying the allegations. In addition, the Company filed counterclaims
against United for, among other things, malicious prosecution, trade
disparagement, tortious interference, unfair competition and antitrust
violations. The Company is seeking treble, compensatory and punitive damages in
amounts to be determined at trial. United filed its answer denying certain
counterclaims and moved to dismiss other counterclaims. No trial date has been
set.
-45-
Based on currently known facts, the Company's legal counsel has advised
that it believes that the Company should be able to successfully defend the
patent infringement claims alleged in United's complaint. With respect to the
misappropriation and unfair competition claims, legal counsel to the Company has
advised that it believes the likelihood that United will be able to prove a case
regarding such claims within the statute of limitations is remote. Further, the
Company intends to vigorously pursue its counterclaims against United. The
ultimate outcome of this litigation is not certain at this time and no provision
for gain or loss, if any, has been made in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
The Company is involved in various other legal actions arising in the
normal course of business. After taking into consideration legal counsel's
evaluation of such actions, management is of the opinion that the outcome of
these other matters will not have a significant effect on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of October
31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended October 31, 1995, in conformity with
