DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS. WSI Industries, Inc. (the "Company") makes its periodic and current reports available free of charge as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission. These reports can be obtained by contacting the Company through its website at www.wsiindustries.com. OVERVIEW The Company was incorporated in Minnesota in 1950 for the purpose of performing precision contract machining for the aerospace, communication, and industrial markets. The major portions of Company revenues are derived from machining work for the aerospace/avionics/defense industries, recreational vehicles (ATV and motorcycle) markets and bioscience industry. Contract manufacturing constitutes the Company's entire business. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES The Company manufactures metal components in medium to high volumes requiring tolerances as close as one ten-thousandth (.0001) of an inch. These components are manufactured in accordance with customer specifications using materials generally purchased by the Company, but occasionally supplied by the customer. SALES AND MARKETING The major markets served by the Company have been relatively stable in the past several years with sales growth coming primarily from the recreational vehicle market, and more recently in fiscal 2006, the bioscience industry. Sales to the recreational vehicle market totaled 81%, 84% and 79% of total sales in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Sales to the aerospace/avionics/defense markets totaled 12%, 11% and 14% of total sales in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Sales to the bioscience industry amounted to 4% of total sales in fiscal 2006, while sales to the biosciences industry accounted for less than 1% of total sales in fiscal years 2005 and 2004. The Company has a reputation as a dependable supplier capable of meeting stringent specifications to produce quality components at high production rates. The Company has demonstrated an ability to develop sophisticated manufacturing processes and controls essential to produce precision and reliability in its products. SEASONALITY Seasonal patterns in the Company's business are reflections of the Company's customers' seasonal patterns since the Company's business is that of a provider of manufacturing services. 2 CUSTOMERS Sales in excess of 10 percent of fiscal 2006 consolidated sales were made to Polaris Industries, Inc. and related entities in the amount of $13,103,000 or 81% of Company revenues for fiscal year 2006. BACKLOG Approximate dollar backlog at August 27, 2006, August 28, 2005 and August 29, 2004 was $3,908,000, $3,883,000 and $3,091,000, respectively. Backlog is not deemed to be any more significant for the Company than for other companies engaged in similar businesses. The Company believes that the level of backlog is not necessarily indicative of future yearly sale increases or decreases. COMPETITION Although there are a large number of companies engaged in machining, the Company believes the number of entities with the technical capability and capacity for producing products of the class and in the volumes manufactured by the Company is relatively small. Competition is primarily based on product quality, service, timely delivery, and price. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT; INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY No material amount has been spent on company-sponsored research and development activities. Patents and trademarks are not deemed significant to the Company. EMPLOYEES At August 27, 2006, the Company had 62 employees, none of whom were subject to a union contract. We consider our relationship with our employees to be good. FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC OPERATIONS AND EXPORT SALES The Company has no operations in any foreign country. In 2006, 2005 and 2004, sales to a customer in Mexico amounted to $71,000, $130,000 and $360,000, respectively. ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY. The Company purchased an existing 49,000 square foot facility located in Monticello, Minnesota in May 2004 to house its production and its headquarters. The purchase price was $1.9 million and was paid for by a combination of cash and debt. The Company relocated its former production facility located in Osseo, Minnesota to the Monticello facility. The Osseo building was leased until February 2005 with monthly rent of approximately $9,600 plus operating expenses and taxes. The Company was fully relocated by the end of its fiscal 2005 second quarter. The Company considers its manufacturing equipment, facilities, and other physical properties to be suitable and adequate to meet the requirements of its business. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. The Company is not a party to any material legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. 3 ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. None. PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The common stock of the Company is traded on The NASDAQ Capital Market of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. under the symbol "WSCI."

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results could differ from the estimates we used in applying the critical accounting policies. Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely event that would result in materially different amounts being reported. Allowance for Excess and Obsolete Inventory: Inventories, which are composed of raw materials, work in process and finished goods, are valued at the lower of cost or market by comparing the cost of each item in inventory to its most recent sales price or sales order price. Any excess of cost over the net realizable value of inventory components is included in the allowance for obsolete inventory. In addition, the Company determines the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory by analyzing the sales history of its inventory, sales orders on hand and indications from the Company's customers as to the future of various parts or programs. If, in the Company's determination, the inventory value has become impaired, the Company establishes an obsolescence reserve at the amount the Company estimates as the ultimate net realizable value for that inventory. The obsolescence reserve remains on the Company's books until the inventory is disposed of or sold. Actual customer requirements in any future periods are inherently uncertain and thus may differ from our estimates. If actual or expected customer requirements were significantly lower than the established reserves, the Company would record an increase to the obsolescence allowance in the period in which the Company made such a determination. The Company performs its lower of cost or market testing as well as its excess or obsolete inventory analyses, quarterly. The Company's allowance for obsolete inventory consists of the following at August 27, 2006 and August 28, 2005: August 27, 2006 August 28, 2005 --------------- --------------- Obsolete finished goods $ 87,917 $ 85,853 Obsolete work-in-process 6,900 6,900 Cost exceeding market value 73,965 81,203 -------- -------- $168,782 $173,956 The Company disposed of a substantial portion of its obsolete inventory during fiscal 2005. Since the inventory disposed of had been previously reserved for and thus had minimal net book value, there was no material effect on the gross margin in the financial statements when the Company disposed of this inventory. The total quantity disposed amounted to 15% of the gross inventory value. The Company has no specific timeline to dispose of its remaining obsolete inventory and intends to sell this obsolete inventory from time to time, as market conditions allow. 6 Goodwill Impairment: The Company evaluates the valuation of its goodwill according to the provisions of SFAS 142 to determine if the current value of goodwill has been impaired. The Company believes that its stock price is not necessarily an indicator of the Company's value given its limited trading volume and its wide price fluctuations. The Company follows the guidance provided by SFAS 142 and utilizes a present value technique to measure fair value by estimating future cash flows. The major assumptions in this analysis include: (a) sales estimates for the Company in part provided with guidance from the Company's customers; and (b) material and labor costs of the Company's major programs. The Company constructs a discounted cash flow analysis based on these assumptions to estimate the fair value of the Company (which is the only reporting unit). The result of the analysis performed in the fiscal 2006 fourth quarter did not show an impairment of goodwill. If the Company has changes in events or circumstances, including reductions in anticipated cash flows generated by our operations, goodwill could become impaired which would result in a charge to earnings. Deferred Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance would be set up should the realization of any deferred taxes become less likely than not to occur. The valuation allowance is analyzed periodically by the Company and may result in income tax expense different than statutory rates. The Company has not established a valuation allowance as it believes it is more likely than not that it will fully realize the benefit of its tax assets. Currently, the Company's deferred tax assets have two major components which relate to the Company's NOL and the Company's AMT tax credit carryforwards. The Company's AMT tax credit carryforward does not expire. The Company's NOL carryforward has $112,000 expiring in fiscal year 2009, $415,000 in fiscal 2011 and $3.1 million expiring in fiscal 2021 and after. The Company believes that its current rate of growth will be sufficient to fully utilize its NOL carryforwards before they expire. However, a significant loss of a customer or a change in the Company's business could affect the realization of the deferred tax assets. If a major program were discontinued, the Company would immediately assess the impact of the loss of the program on the realization of the deferred tax assets. Revenue Recognition: The Company considers its revenue recognition policy to fall under the guidance of FASB's conceptual framework for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue only after: (a) The Company has received a purchase order identifying price and delivery terms or services to be rendered; (b) shipment has occurred, or in the case of services, after the service has been completed; (c) the Company's price is fixed as evidenced by the purchase order; and (d) collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company continually monitors its accounts receivable for any delinquent or slow paying accounts. The Company believes that based upon its past history with minimal bad debt write-offs, that all accounts are collectible upon shipment or delivery of services. Credit losses from customers have been minimal and within management's expectations. Based on management's evaluation of uncollected accounts receivable, bad debts are provided for on the allowance method. Accounts are considered delinquent if they are 120 days past due. If an uncollectible account should arise during the year, it would be written-off at the point it was determined to be uncollectible. The Company mitigates its credit risk by performing periodic credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. The Company refers to "net sales" in its consolidated statements of operations as the Company's sales are sometimes reduced by product returned by its customers. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: The Company's net working capital at the end of fiscal 2006 was $2,891,000 as compared to $2,245,000 at the end of fiscal 2005. The increase was derived primarily from comparable increases in the three major components of current assets - cash, accounts receivable and inventory. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities increased to 2.31 to 1.0 from 2.24 to 1.0 in the prior year. 7 Additions to property, plant and equipment were $469,000 in fiscal 2006 compared to $551,000 in 2005 and $2,745,000 in 2004. These amounts included $382,000, $457,000 and $593,000 of machinery acquired through capital leases in fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Major additions in 2006 were two vertical and one horizontal machining center. The major addition in fiscal 2005 was a horizontal machining center. The major addition in fiscal 2004 was the purchase of the Company's new manufacturing facility located in Monticello, Minnesota. The purchase price was $1.9 million and was paid for by a combination of $190,000 in cash and $1,710,000 in mortgages. On January 1, 2006 the Company renewed its revolving line credit agreement with its bank. Under the agreement, the Company can borrow up to $1 million depending on the level of accounts receivable and raw material. The agreement expires on January 1, 2007. No balances were owed at August 27, 2006 and August 28, 2005. The Company is currently pursuing a renewal of the line beyond January 1, 2007. Proceeds from the sale of equipment amounted to $29,000 in fiscal 2006. The Company's total debt was $3,086,000 at August 27, 2006 that consisted of mortgages on its building of $1,624,000 and capital lease obligations secured by production equipment of $1,462,000. Current maturities of long-term debt consist of $335,000 due on capital leases and $41,000 on its mortgages. It is management's belief that internally generated funds as well as its revolving line of credit will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its financial requirements during fiscal 2007. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Net sales in fiscal 2006 were $16.1 million as compared to $15.7 million in the prior year, or an increase of $437,000 or 2.8%. The increase in fiscal 2006 came primarily from increased sales in its biosciences market, which did not contribute to sales in 2005. Net sales in fiscal 2005 were $15.7 million, an increase of $4.1 million or 36% from fiscal 2004. The primary reason for the sales increase in 2005 as compared to 2004 was a new program in the Company's recreational vehicle market. The Company also experienced a general sales increase from its other programs in its recreational vehicle market. The following is a reconciliation of sales by major market: Fiscal 2006 Fiscal 2005 Fiscal 2004 ----------- ----------- ----------- Recreational vehicle $13,103,000 $13,193,000 $ 9,107,000 Aerospace and defense 1,972,000 1,734,000 1,546,000 Biosciences 593,000 131,000 95,000 Other 424,000 596,000 777,000 ----------- ----------- ----------- $16,092,000 $15,654,000 $11,525,000 =========== =========== =========== Sales in the recreational vehicle market were slightly lower in fiscal 2006 as compared to 2005 with lower sales in the Company's all terrain vehicle (ATV) market offset by increases in its motorcycle market. The recreational vehicle market sales increased in fiscal 2005 from fiscal 2004 due to a new component in its motorcycle market that contributed $3.1 million in additional sales. The market's sales also increased due to a general overall increase in the number of units shipped. The Company believes that the increase in sales in its aerospace and defense market in both fiscal 2006 and 2005 are a result of a general increase in the level of business as opposed to a significant change in customer or product. 8 In June 2005, the Company announced a partnering arrangement with an existing customer in the biosciences industry. The increase in sales in fiscal 2006 vs. 2005 and 2004 is a direct result of this arrangement. The overall implementation of the arrangement has been somewhat slower than the Company's original expectations; however the Company still anticipates a higher level of business with this customer in fiscal 2007. The Company's other market is primarily derived from sales in the small engine and computer components fields. The decrease in sales from fiscal 2004 through fiscal 2006 came primarily from the computer components industry due to product life cycle issues. The Company reported net income in fiscal 2006 of $573,000 or $.21 per share vs. the fiscal 2005 amount of $335,000 or $.13 per share. In fiscal 2005, the Company's income was negatively affected by relocation and second building expense incurred with the move to its new Monticello, Minnesota facility. The Company estimated that it incurred $328,000 in costs associated with this relocation in the first six months of fiscal 2005. The Company reported net income of $49,000 or $.02 per share in fiscal 2004. The Company also incurred relocation and second building costs during the last four months of fiscal 2004 of $239,000. Gross margins in fiscal 2006 were 17.2%, an increase of .6% over fiscal 2005's margin of 16.6% and an increase of 3.6% over fiscal 2004's margin of 13.6%. The slight increase in 2006 margins is attributable primarily to higher volumes of business, offset by startup costs in the Company's biosciences' programs. The increase in 2005's margins is also largely attributable to efficiencies gained due to higher volume partially offset by start-up expenses of the Company's new program in the recreational vehicle market incurred in fiscal 2004. No significant sales of obsolete items occurred in fiscal 2004 to 2006 and, correspondingly, no significant gross margin was recognized. Selling and administrative expense of $1.7 million in fiscal 2006 was a decrease of $180,000 from fiscal 2005 and an increase of $335,000 from fiscal 2004. The decrease in fiscal 2006 vs. 2005 was due to relocation costs incurred in fiscal 2005 partially offset by higher compensation costs. The increase in expense in fiscal 2005 vs. 2004 was due primarily to higher compensation costs and by higher relocation costs. Interest expense of $172,000 in fiscal 2006 was comparable to the fiscal 2005 amount of $173,000 and $80,000 higher than the 2004 amount of $92,000. The higher expense in fiscal 2006 and 2005 is due primarily to the purchase of the Monticello, Minnesota facility and related mortgages. The Company recorded income tax expense at an effective tax rate of 38%, for fiscal 2006 and 36% for fiscal years 2005 and 2004. The Company maintained its valuation allowance at zero during 2006.

Monticello, Minnesota We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of WSI Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of August 27, 2006 and August 28, 2005 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended August 27, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 13 (a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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 statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of WSI Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of August 27, 2006 and August 28, 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended August 27, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule for the three years ended August 27, 2006, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. /s/ Schechter Dokken Kanter Andrews & Selcer Ltd Minneapolis, Minnesota October 23, 2006 16 WSI INDUSTRIES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED AUGUST 27, 2006, AUGUST 28, 2005 AND AUGUST 29, 2004 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Business Description - WSI Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries' (the Company) is involved in the precision contract metal machining business primarily serving the recreational vehicle, aerospace/avionics and bioscience industries. Fiscal Year - WSI Industries, Inc.'s fiscal years represent a 52- to 53-week period ending the last Sunday in August. Fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006 each consisted of 52 weeks. Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WSI Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank account balances and money market investments including debt obligations issued by the U. S. Government or its agencies and corporate obligations. At times bank balances exceed federally insured limits. Cash equivalents are carried at cost plus accrued interest which approximates fair value. Inventories - Inventory costs determined using the average cost method consist of material, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. They are valued at the lower of cost or market by comparing the cost of each item in inventory to its most recent sales price or sales order price. Any excess of cost over the net realizable value of inventory components is included in the allowance for obsolete inventory. In addition, the Company determines the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory by analyzing the sales history of its inventory, sales orders on hand and indications from the Company's customers as to the future of various parts or programs. If, in the Company's determination, the inventory value has become impaired, the Company establishes an obsolescence reserve at the amount the Company estimates as the ultimate net realizable value for that inventory. The obsolescence reserve remains on the Company's books until the inventory is disposed of or sold. Actual customer requirements in any future periods are inherently uncertain and thus may differ from our estimates. If actual or expected customer requirements were significantly lower than the established reserves, the Company would record an increase to the obsolescence allowance in the period in which the Company made such a determination. The Company performs its lower of cost or market testing, as well as its excess or obsolete inventory analyses, quarterly. Depreciation - The cost of substantially all machinery and equipment, and buildings and improvements are being depreciated using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows: Machinery and equipment 3 to 10 years Building and improvements 15 to 40 years The Company evaluates long-term assets on a periodic basis in compliance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amount. 21 Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Revenue Recognition - Revenues from sales of product are recorded generally upon shipment. The Company considers its revenue recognition policy to fall under the guidance of FASB's conceptual framework for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue only after: (a) The Company has received a purchase order identifying price and delivery terms or services to be rendered; (b) shipment has occurred, or in the case of services, after the service has been completed; (c) the Company's price is fixed as evidenced by the purchase order; and (d) collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company generally does not require collateral on its trade receivables. The Company refers to its revenues as "net sales" in its Consolidated Statements of Operations as the Company's sales are reduced for any product returned by customers. In fiscal years 2004 and 2005, the Company had an agreement with a customer to provide product on a consignment basis. In this case, revenues are recognized when the customer notifies the Company that it has consumed the product. This agreement ended during fiscal 2006. Credit losses relating to customers have been minimal and within management's expectations. Based on management's evaluation of uncollected accounts receivable throughout the year, bad debts are provided for on the allowance method. Accounts are considered delinquent if they are 120 days past due. The Company mitigates its credit risk by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made in those financial statements consist of estimates related to the impairment of goodwill, the evaluation of excess or obsolete inventory and the valuation allowance connected to the deferred tax assets. Earnings per Share - Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the combination of dilutive common share equivalents and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Reclassification - Certain prior year Statement of Operation items have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Stock Options - The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, but applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25) and related interpretation in accounting for its plans. Under APB 25, when the exercise price of employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. In fiscal 2006, 208,000 shares of stock options were excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation due to their anti-dilutive effect. In fiscal 2005 and 2004, the number of shares excluded was 105,000 and 245,000, respectively. 22 Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (R) (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS No 123 (R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Amends SFAS No 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123 (R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123 (R) requires all shared-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is not an alternative. SFAS No. 123 (R) must be adopted no later than the first interim period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 for small business filers. We expect to adopt SFAS No. 123 (R) on August 28, 2006, the first day of our fiscal 2007. SFAS No. 123 (R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods: a "modified prospective" approach or a "modified retrospective" approach. Under the modified prospective approach, compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date based on the requirements of SFAS 123 (R) for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and the requirements of SFAS No. 123 (R) for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123 (R) that remain unvested on the effective date. The modified retrospective approach includes the requirements of the modified prospective approach but also permits entities to restate based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS No. 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either for all prior periods presented or prior interim periods of the year of adoption. We will adopt the modified prospective approach. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, we currently account for the share-based payments to employees using APB Opinion No. 25's intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognize no compensation cost for employee stock options. We expect the adoption of SFAS No. 123 (R) to have an unfavorable effect on our results of operations. If we had adopted SFAS No. 123 (R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of SFAS No. 123 as described in Note 5 to our financial statements. SFAS No. 123 (R) also requires the benefit of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than an operating cash flow under current accounting literature. Since we do not have the benefit of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost, because of our net operating loss position, the change will have no immediate impact on our consolidated financial statements. In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151 Inventory Costs - an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 ("SFAS No. 151") effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, SFAS No. 151 became effective for us on August 29, 2005, the first day of our fiscal 2006. This Statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges. In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. We believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 151 did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154 Accounting Changes and Error Correction ("SFAS No. 154") effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. SFAS No. 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3 and changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle. APB 20 previously required that 23 most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new principle. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 154 to have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations. In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. FIN 48 states that a tax benefit from an uncertain position may be recognized if it is "more likely than not" that the position is sustainable, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information. The Company currently recognizes a tax position if it is probable of being sustained. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company will be required to adopt this interpretation in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of FIN No. 48. 2. INVENTORIES Inventories consist primarily of raw material, work-in-process (WIP) and finished goods. The following table breaks out the values in each category net of the inventory valuation allowances of $168,782 and $173,956 at August 27, 2006 and August 28, 2005, respectively: August 27, 2006 August 28, 2005 --------------- --------------- Raw material $ 569,799 $ 335,798 WIP 380,521 338,219 Finished goods 273,522 343,949 ---------- ---------- $1,223,842 $1,017,966 ========== ========== 3. DEBT Long-term debt consists of the following: August 27, 2006 August 28, 2005 --------------- --------------- Mortgages $1,623,677 $1,662,992 Capitalized lease obligations (Note 4) 1,462,207 1,376,494 ---------- ---------- 3,085,884 3,039,486 Less current portion 376,116 311,030 ---------- ---------- Long-term debt $2,709,768 $2,728,456 ========== ========== The Company purchased land and a building located in Monticello, Minnesota in May 2004. In connection with the purchase, the Company entered into two mortgages. The first mortgage was with its bank for $1,360,000 that matures on May 1, 2014. The mortgage has an initial interest rate of 5.37% with a provision that the rate will adjust on May 3, 2009 to a rate 2.5% above the monthly yield on United States Treasury five-year securities. The mortgage requires monthly principal and interest payments of $8,307 based on a 25-year amortization schedule. The mortgage is secured by all assets of the Company. 24 The Company also entered into a mortgage with the City of Monticello Economic Development Authority (MEDA). The MEDA mortgage is subordinated to the bank mortgage, carries an interest rate of 2% and matures May 1, 2009. The mortgage also requires monthly principal and interest payments of $1,483 based on a 25-year amortization schedule. Maturities of long-term debt are as follows: Fiscal years ending August: 2007 $ 376,116 2008 372,177 2009 562,153 2010 258,700 2011 246,981 Thereafter 1,269,757 Line of Credit: The Company renewed its revolving credit agreement with its bank on January 1, 2006. Under the agreement, the Company can borrow up to $1 million, with the loan being collateralized by all assets of the Company. The agreement expires January 1, 2007 and has restrictive provisions requiring minimum net worth, current and debt service coverage ratios as well as a maximum ratio of debt to tangible net worth.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill and other intangible assets consist of costs resulting from business acquisitions which total $2,368,452 (net of accumulated amortization of $344,812 recorded prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets). The Company assesses the valuation or potential impairment of its goodwill by utilizing a present value technique to measure fair value by estimating future cash flows. The Company constructs a discounted cash flow analysis based on various sales and cost assumptions to estimate the fair value of the Company (which is the only reporting unit). The result of the analysis performed in the fiscal 2006 fourth quarter did not show an impairment of goodwill. The Company will analyze goodwill more frequently should changes in events or circumstances, including reductions in anticipated cash flows generated by our operations, occur. The Company recorded $33,063 of deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the mortgages described in Note 3. The costs are being amortized over five years on a straight-line basis with the Company incurring approximately $6,600 of amortization expense for each of the years August 27, 2006 and August 28, 2005, respectively. 31 WSI INDUSTRIES, INC.
