Independent Accountants' Report
To the Trustees of
Frequency Electronics, Inc.
Cash or Deferral Profit Sharing
Plan and Trust
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of Frequency Electronics, Inc. Cash or Deferral Profit Sharing Plan and Trust
(the "Plan") as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31,
2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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, the financial statements referred to above, present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the year ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held
at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary schedule
required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This
supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The
supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

CASH OR DEFERRAL PROFIT SHARING PLAN AND TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001
1. Plan Description:
The following brief description of The Frequency Electronics, Inc. Cash or
Deferral Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the "Plan") is provided for general
information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for
more complete information.
The Plan, adopted on January 1, 1985, is a defined contribution savings
plan qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Employees are
eligible for membership in the Plan after completing six months of service.
All expenses of administering the Plan are paid by Frequency Electronics,
Inc. (the "Company").
Contributions:
Employee
Plan participants may contribute a maximum of 25% and 10% of compensation,
as defined in the plan agreement, as employee salary savings contributions and
voluntary deductible contributions, respectively, (collectively, "Savings
Contributions"). Total employee salary reduction contributions are limited to
the maximum deductible of $12,000 and $11,000 in 2002 and 2001, respectively,
under the Internal Revenue Code. Savings contributions are immediately fully
vested.
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution
allocated as requested. Allocations of Plan earnings are made to each
participant's account based upon participant account balances, as defined. The
benefit to which a participant is entitled is the amount that can be provided
solely from the participant's account.
Employee contributions are to be transmitted to the Plan within fifteen
business days after the end of the month in which the contributions are received
by the employer.
Employer
During the period January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1999, the Company
suspended its matching contribution. In 2000 the Company's Board of Directors
approved a benefit policy under the Plan, effective January 1, 2000, wherein the
Company will make a matching contribution in Company stock. This matching
contribution is limited to 3% of the employee's earnings, to a maximum of
$2,500. In addition, every employee will receive an annual contribution of $500,
regardless of their own contribution.
The maximum Company contribution is $3,000 per employee. Employees are
eligible for both contributions after six months of employment. All
contributions by the Company will be subject to the current vesting schedule.
-7-
1. Plan Description: (Cont'd)
Participant loans
Loans are permitted against a participant's contributory account balance.
The amount of the loan cannot be less than $1,000 or exceed 50% of the
participant's contributory account balance.
An outstanding loan is repayable, with interest at prevailing commercial
rates, in full at any time or in monthly installments by means of a payroll
deduction over a term not to exceed five years, except for loans made in
connection with the purchase of a home, for which the period is up to thirty
years.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Polices:
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting and are presented in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, which require management to make significant estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and uncertainties
The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of
stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other investment securities. Investment
securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and
credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities
and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment
securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risk in the near
term would materially affect participant's account balances and the amounts
reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the
statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
Investments
Contributions to the Plan are directed by the participants in any one or
more of the investment funds available to them as of December 31, 2002. The
available investment funds are as follows:
MFS High Income Fund
The fund's investment objective is to provide high current income by
investing primarily in a professionally managed, diversified portfolio of fixed
income securities, some of which may involve equity features.
MFS Total Return Fund
The primary investment objective of the fund is to obtain above-average
income consistent with prudent employment of capital. The fund's secondary
objective is to take advantage of opportunities for growth of capital and
income.
