PART I
Item 1. Business
Forward-Looking Statements
     This report contains certain forward-looking statements which are based on current expectations. Actual results may differ materially. The forward-looking statements include, without limitation, those regarding the continued award of future work or task orders from government and private clients, cost controls and reductions, the expected resolution of delays in billing of certain projects, and the possible impact of current and future claims against the Company based upon negligence and other theories of liability. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, including, but not limited to, the possibility that the demand for the Company’s services may decline as a result of possible changes in general and industry specific economic conditions and the effects of competitive services and pricing; the possibility that the Company will not be able to perform work within budget or contractual limitations; one or more current or future claims made against the Company may result in substantial liabilities; the possibility that the Company will not be able to attract and retain key professional employees; changes to or failure of the Federal government to fund certain programs in which the Company participates; delays in project funding; and such other risks and uncertainties set forth in this report and in other reports and other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Business Overview
     Versar, Inc., a Delaware corporation organized in 1969 (the “Company” or “Versar”), is a professional services firm that provides the government and the private sector with value-added, high quality innovative solutions for infrastructure, facilities management, construction, environmental quality, defense and homeland security needs. Versar operates in four primary business segments: (1) Program Management, (2) Compliance and Environmental Programs, (3) Professional Services, and (4) National Security.
     In fiscal year 2008, Versar completed over $62 million of work internationally for both the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Army providing Title II engineering services, personal services, and construction management in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. Our Title II work consists of providing quality assurance and quality control to ensure construction projects for the Air Force are being constructed in accordance with building codes and requirements. This work has solidified the Company’s baseline business internationally. In order to maintain and expand this business base, the Company is pursing similar business opportunities in the Middle East and the Pacific Rim, as well as BRAC (Base Realignment and Closure) activities both in the United States and around the world.
     In fiscal year 2008, the Company continued its initiative to further increase the Company’s project management capabilities as well as address the Federal regulatory requirements for earned value management (EVM) as a federal government contractor. EVM is a program management technique that integrates technical performance requirements, and resource planning, with scheduling while taking risk into consideration. EVM allows for better and more effective management decision making to address adverse impacts to project work. Currently, approximately 8% of the Company’s professional workforce is certified as a PMP (Project Management Professional) through the Project Management Institute with several other individuals currently in the process of being certified. The Company clearly sees the benefit of investing in this program because it is the backbone of the Company’s business of managing projects. The PMP certification process provides a clear, structured and measurable approach along with a specific body of knowledge we use as a standard to be a project manager for Versar. In addition, the Company established a PMO (Project Management Office) in fiscal year 2008 to provide an established structure and resources to assist the Company’s PMPs.
     Program Management Business Segment: The Program Management business segment is the largest component of Versar’s business base. During fiscal year 2008, the Program Management business segment expanded further through the increase of work available in Iraq and Afghanistan. In addition, this segment’s operations expanded into Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates following the same construction management business model utilized in Iraq.

     The Program Management business segment manages several large programs as a part of our work with the Air Force and the Army. These programs include our Air Force Title II work to support the rebuilding efforts in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kuwait, our personal services support contract with the U.S. Corps of Engineers to manage personnel who provide quality control on Army projects in Iraq, and renovation construction work in the United States. In fiscal year 2008, the Company began operations in the rapidly expanding United Arab Emirates primarily to support commercial construction efforts for private clients to provide full service construction management services.
     Versar’s support for the Air Force Title II effort continued to grow in fiscal year 2008 resulting in approximately $41 million of revenues during the fiscal year. This is a direct result of the Air Force’s commitment to a quality construction product that can be held to international construction standards. We anticipate that our services will be required through fiscal year 2009, but may be reduced in Iraq and increased in Afghanistan with the shifting of funds from the Air Force to the Army and may also be impacted by political pressure in future years.
     In April 2006, Versar was awarded a contract to provide personal services support to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). During fiscal year 2007, the base contract grew to approximately $15 million to serve the Army’s growing needs. In April 2008, the second option year on the contract was renewed and the contract has now expanded to $24 million. The Company anticipates that there will be a follow-on procurement to replace this contract. The Company anticipates it will pursue the follow-on contract but cannot estimate the funding level due to political uncertainties and circumstances beyond the Company’s control.
     Renovation work in the United States comprised approximately $6 million of Versar’s revenues in fiscal year 2008. Such services were primarily provided for the Department of Defense School system to renovate several school facilities by updating their roofing, mechanical and electrical systems to current standards. This work is cyclical in nature depending on federal funding, which can be delayed or cancelled depending on budgets and federal financial requirements. In fiscal year 2008, the Company along with its partner Johnson Controls Federal was awarded a construction and design build services contract from Air Force Civil Engineering Support Agency (AFCESA) to be performed around the world. The Company has entered into a limited liability corporation with Johnson Controls Federal Systems to pursue this work. We anticipate this contract, along with prior infrastructure contract awards to support Ft. Lee’s expansion, will provide a strong baseline of business for the future. The Company will continue to pursue other business opportunities to further expand and develop this line of work.
     Compliance and Environmental Programs Business Segment: Versar provides support for regulatory compliance programs involving air, water, chemical and transportation industries. The Company supports the EPA providing technical risk assessments for pollution prevention. Furthermore, the Company provides support to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and several municipal entities to help with environmental compliance, biological assessments, and resource management.
     For more than 30 years, Versar has supported the states of Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware as well as the EPA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the USACE in the assessment of the ecological health of the Chesapeake Bay. Through our contracts with the Philadelphia and Wilmington Districts of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Versar continues to help evaluate the marine life and how it is impacted by the USACE dredging programs. We also assist several counties in Maryland and Virginia with their watershed programs identifying impaired watersheds and providing cost-effective solutions for their restoration programs.
     Federal environmental restoration program revenue slightly increased in fiscal year 2008 even though funds are being reprogrammed to the Iraq war effort. The Air Force continues to be our largest remediation customer, and through our existing Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence (AFCEE) contracts we continue to bid on a significant number of task orders. In fiscal year 2008, Versar continued to perform restoration support services at Vandenberg AFB, Beale AFB, Buckley AFB, and Pueblo, CO. We continue to provide field personnel at Nellis AFB under a 15-year subcontract to CSC Corporation to perform UXO services to clean up the Nellis range. In addition, we provide remediation services to several municipal clients in California and in the Midwest to help restore properties and make them commercially viable once environmental problems have been resolved.

     Professional Services Business Segment: Versar provides on-site environmental management and professional services to over 18 DoD installations and industrial facilities. Our onsite professional services are an increasingly attractive alternative as DoD shifts emphasis to its core military mission. Versar’s Professional Services business segment has grown to over 100 professional and administrative on-site support staff and is focused on obtaining larger contract opportunities to further expand our client base as we have done with contract wins in fiscal year 2008 for Ft. Lewis and the U.S. Army Mobile District Corps. This segment provides a cost-effective solution to our clients to meet and exceed their requirements.
     National Security Business Segment consists primarily of the operations of GEOMET Technologies, LLC (“GEOMET”). The National Security business segment operates in several defense markets:
     Personal Protection Equipment: GEOMET is a leader in developing, testing, and manufacturing personal protection equipment (PPE). In fiscal year 2004, GEOMET announced its Disposable Toxicological Agent Protective System (DTAPS®) Level B coverall chemical/biological protective suits, which are the first in the industry to be certified by the Safety Equipment Institute (SEI) to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1994, Class 2 standards. This certification, called the NFPA 1994, Standard on Protective Ensembles for Chemical/Biological Terrorism Incidents, will help fire and emergency services personnel select the proper personal protective equipment to use when conducting assessment, extrication, rescue, triage, and treatment operations at domestic terrorism incidents involving dual-use industrial chemicals, chemical terrorism agents, or biological terrorism agents. The DTAPS® Level B coverall ensemble is a fully integrated and chemical warfare agent tested protective system including a coverall suit, a reusable chemical splash hood, boots, and breathing system.
     Chemical Testing Laboratory: Versar owns and operates the only declared Schedule I chemical agent laboratory in the United States under the Chemical Weapons Convention which is overseen by the Department of Commerce. The laboratory provides cost-effective materials testing services to the U.S. government and to private industries, particularly manufacturers of chemical protective equipment and clothing. Other laboratory services include evaluation of new chemical agent detection instrumentation, chemical agent decontamination and destruction techniques, site remediation/environmental cleanup support, analysis of environmental samples of air, soil, and water, and sludge for the presence of chemical and biological agents and degradation products, and testing of personal protective systems for component survivability.
     GEOMET was also selected to be the lead subcontractor, providing nuclear, chemical and biological test and evaluation services to the West Desert Test Center (WDTC) located on the U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground (DPG), Utah. The prime contract is a cost plus fixed fee contract with a value of $285 million and a one-year base period of performance along with fourteen options and award terms, making the potential total contract period 15 years. Versar’s estimated portion of this contract is $30 million over the 15 year period of performance. The WDTC test programs include evaluation of munitions, chemical/biological detection and protection devices, testing to determine nuclear, biological, chemical contamination and decontamination survivability of various Department of Defense material and equipment, and a wide range of developmental testing and applied research related to tactics, techniques, and procedures.
     See Note B to our Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for further financial information regarding our business segments.
Markets
     Versar’s services continue to evolve in response to clients’ changing needs and our market opportunities are being driven by the customer’s changing infrastructure requirements. The Company continues to focus on larger programs for government customers, developing long-term level of effort contracts to stabilize the Company’s business base, and on the challenging homeland security market.
     The Company believes that terrorism and defense issues are the biggest near-term threats facing the economy, well ahead of government spending and the deficit. Management believes that each business segment has expertise to address the needs raised by these national security issues. Management believes that Versar is well positioned in the defense and national security sectors in the coming years.

     The industrial environmental marketplace, in our view, will remain highly competitive, as no major new regulatory requirements are expected to be enacted in the near future. Some of our private sector customers are beginning to return to funding capital expenses for environmental projects. Given the current economic and regulatory situation, we will continue to pursue those opportunities that can be performed profitably.
     Success in the federal markets continues to be driven by a cost-effective set of solutions, such as the Guaranteed Fixed Price Remediation Program, outsourcing at the point of need, and relationships with key customers.
     Initially, we expected that Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) funding would occur late in fiscal year 2006. However, due to funding constraints from the war in Iraq, the BRAC funding to revitalize military bases infrastructure work did not start until fiscal year 2008 and will continue into our fiscal year 2009.
Competition
     Versar continues to face substantial competition in each market in which we operate and expects this to continue as we diversify our business. Competitors are often larger and have greater financial resources than Versar, which means that we have to be selective in our marketing and sales program efforts. However, we believe that our larger size relative to many of the smaller, niche companies with which we compete is an advantage. We are better able to compete with these smaller companies for certain contracts available only to companies qualifying as a “small business” under federal regulations because we have greater resources than they do, while we are small enough to continue meeting the “small business” criteria. Generally, a company with more than 500 employees will not qualify as a “small business” so our larger competitors are unable to compete with us on these contracts. In addition, there has been major consolidation in the environmental services market, with two brackets of firms emerging — the large, diversified firms with a wide range of capabilities, and the smaller, niche firms with limited capability in specific horizontal or vertical markets.
     Our market areas of Program Management, Compliance and Environmental Programs, Professional Services, and National Security reflect a mix of business that we believe will be stable and allow for growth, while retaining our core capability. The synthesis of our core capabilities, however, is an important selling feature as customers look for one source to meet their needs. We believe that we are among the few firms that combine environmental health and safety/risk assessment, hard engineering design and construction, and chemical and biological defense capability in one package, and we are actively pursuing customers that require these combined services.
     Our pricing structure has been adjusted to ensure that we remain competitive, particularly for outsourcing, where procurement decisions are very price sensitive. Similarly, we are concentrating our marketing efforts on getting the most return on investment, through expanding support for existing customers, developing tasks under existing contracts, and collaborating with firms that need our specialized expertise. We are targeting and identifying specific programs that match our capability.
     Versar will also continue to target small business set aside opportunities in the federal marketplace, under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes that provide opportunities for firms with fewer than 500 employees. We continue to work with customers to make them aware of the benefits of setting aside work under these NAICS codes, and expect that trend to continue. Typically, for large, environmental contracts, at least one of the awards is targeted for a small business, and Versar believes it is well equipped with its depth of expertise to compete in that sector.
Backlog
     For Versar, firm backlog is identified as “funded” backlog, which represents orders for goods and services for which firm contractual commitments have been received. Such contractual commitments may take the form of a signed contract, a written task order under a large contract vehicle, a master contract or other types of written authorization, including change orders to existing written agreements. In the case of contracts with governments or governmental agencies amounts are included in funded backlog when the firm contractual commitment is supported by funding that has been appropriated and authorized for expenditure. Based on past experience, the Company believes that at least 90% of funded backlog will be performed in the succeeding twelve month period.

5


 

     The Company also reports “total contract” backlog which includes two components: funded backlog and expected backlog. Expected backlog reflects management’s estimate of future revenue from existing written contracts, such as master contracts with large corporations and large federal, state and municipal multi-year contracts for which funding for work or tasks has not yet been authorized in writing by the other contracting party. Versar has a number of large, multi-year (including option periods), multi-million dollar contracts with the federal and state governments. In many cases these contracts are identified as “Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity” multi-year contracts. These are unfunded contract “vehicles” through which the particular government client issues funded work to Versar by written task or work orders. When these task or work orders are issued, the Company then counts the portion covered by the task or work orders as funded backlog.
     The amount of expected backlog included in the total contract backlog is not exact or guaranteed; however, it represents what Versar reasonably believes, based upon subjective factors such as past experience with the particular clients, the type of work and present budgetary expectations and information about the clients’ needs and other business circumstances, will become funded backlog over the next five to seven years. These estimates are based upon the information in Versar’s possession at the time the estimate is made. If management does not accurately assess each of these factors, or if it does not include all of the variables that affect the revenue it will recognize from existing contracts in the estimating process, the potential value of these contracts, and accordingly, reported total contract backlog, will not reflect the actual revenue received from contracts and task orders. As a result, there can be no assurance that Versar will ultimately receive amounts included in total contract backlog that are not included in funded backlog or that total contract backlog includes all revenue that Versar may ultimately receive under contracts existing at any one time. Further, many factors that affect the scheduling of projects could alter the actual timing of revenue on projects included in total contract backlog. There is also the possibility that contracts could be adjusted or cancelled in a manner that would affect the realization of revenues reflected in backlog. Nevertheless, the Company believes the number characterized as total contract backlog is important information for investors, reflecting on the potential future performance of the Company.
     While total contract backlog is comprised of total funded backlog and management’s estimate of additional amounts to be received under existing contracts, total contract backlog does not represent the full amount of the Company’s contract capacity. Each of the contracts with “unutilized contract capacity” is reviewed individually and, based upon the various subjective factors described above, an estimate is made of the amount of this unutilized capacity Versar expects will become funded backlog in five to seven years. There is no specific formula for these estimates. If sufficient information is not available upon which to base an estimate, or the Company does not have prior experience with the particular client, management may not include any unfunded portion of a contract in total contract backlog until such time as a reasonable estimate of expected future funded orders can be made.
     Other companies with similar types of contracts to Versar may not calculate backlog in the same manner as Versar, because their calculations are based on different subjective factors or because they use a different methodology. Therefore, information presented by Versar regarding funded backlog and total contract backlog may not be comparable to similar presentations by others.
     As of June 27, 2008, funded backlog for Versar was approximately $64 million, an increase of 12% compared to approximately $57 million as of June 29, 2007.
     As of June 27, 2008, total contract backlog for Versar, including unfunded expected government task orders, was approximately $610 million, as compared to approximately $503 million as of June 29, 2007, an increase of 21%. The increase is due to the award of the SATOC AFCESA contract to the Program Management business segment and the Mobile Army support contract that supports all of the Company’s business segments.
Employees
     At June 27, 2008, Versar had approximately 443 full-time employees, of which eighty-three percent are engineers, scientists, and other professionals. Seventy-nine percent of the Company’s professional employees have a bachelor’s degree, twenty percent have a master’s degree, and four percent have a doctorate degree.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
We are dependent on government contracts for the majority of our revenue, and a reduction or delay in spending by government agencies could adversely affect our business and operating results.
     Contracts with agencies of the United States government and various state and local governments represented approximately 95% of our revenue in fiscal year 2008, with only 5% of our revenue coming from commercial sources. Therefore, the majority of our revenue and the success of our business are materially dependent on contracts with governmental agencies. Companies engaged in government contracting are subject to certain unique business risks not shared by the general commercial sector. Among these risks are:
    a competitive procurement process with no guaranty of being awarded contracts;
 
    dependence on congressional appropriations and administrative allotment of funds;
 
    policies and regulations that can be changed at any time by Congress or a presidential administration;
 
    competing political priorities and changes in the political climate regarding funding and operations of the services;
 
    changes in and delays or cancellations of government programs or requirements;
 
    government contracts that are usually awarded for relatively short periods of time and are subject to renewal options in favor of the government; and
 
    many contracts with Federal government agencies require annual funding and may be terminated at the agency’s discretion.
     Following the award of a federal government contract, payment for the work is dependent on congressional appropriations of the funds necessary to complete the task. The Federal government contracting laws also provide that the United States government is to do business only with responsible contractors. Accordingly, Federal agencies have the authority under certain circumstances to suspend or debar a contractor from bidding on government contracts.
     A reduction or shift in spending priorities by Federal government agencies could limit or eliminate the continued funding or our existing government contracts. These reductions or shifts in spending, if significant, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our government contracts are subject to audit and potential reduction of costs and fees.
     Contracts with the Federal government and many other state and local governmental agencies are subject to audit by governmental agencies, which could result in the disallowance of certain fees and costs. These audits can result in the disallowance of significant costs and expenses if the auditing agency determines, in its discretion, that certain costs and expenses were not warranted or were excessive. Disallowance of costs and expenses, if pervasive or significant, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
As a government contractor, we are subject to a number of procurement laws and regulations; a violation of any such law or regulation could result in sanctions, contract termination, forfeiture of profit, harm to our reputation or loss of our status as an eligible government contractor.
     We must comply with and are affected by federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding the formation, administration and performance of government contracts. These laws and regulations affect how we transact business with our government clients and, in some instances, impose additional costs on our business operations. Even though we take precautions to prevent and deter fraud, misconduct and non-compliance, we face the risk that our personnel or outside partners may engage in misconduct, fraud or improper activities. Government contract violations could result in the imposition of civil and criminal penalties or sanctions, contract termination, forfeiture of profit and/or suspension of payment, any of which could make us lose our status as an eligible government contractor and could cause our reputation to suffer serious harm.

Since we depend on federal, state and local governments for a significant portion of our revenue, our inability to win or renew government contracts could harm our operations and financial condition.
     Our inability to win or renew government contracts could harm our operations and significantly reduce or eliminate any potential profits. Government contracts are typically awarded through a heavily regulated procurement process. Some government contracts are offered to multiple competitors, causing increases in overall competition and pricing pressure. The competition and pricing pressure may require us to seek to reduce costs in order to realize revenues under these contracts. If we are not successful in reducing the amounts of costs we anticipate, our profitability on these contracts will be negatively impacted. Further, even if we are qualified to work on a government contract, we may not be awarded the contract if a competitor is selected or because of certain government policies.
Robust enforcement of regulations is important to our financial success.
     Our business is materially dependent on the continued enforcement by local, state and federal governments of various environmental regulations. From time to time, depending on political pressures, local, state and federal agencies relax environmental clean-up standards to promote economic growth and to discourage industrial businesses from relocating. Any relaxation in clean-up standards impacts our ability to secure additional contracting work with such agencies or with other federal agencies that operate or manage contaminated property. Further, in a period of relaxed environmental standards, private industry may be less willing to allocate funds to consulting services designed to prevent or remediate environmental problems.
A large portion of our backlog is subject to cancellation and adjustments which makes backlog an uncertain indicator of future operating results.
     Our funded backlog was approximately $64 million as of June 27, 2008. Funded backlog represents orders for goods and services for which firm contractual commitments have been received. Such contractual commitments may take the form of a signed contract, a written task order under a large contract vehicle, a master contract or other types of written authorization, including change orders to existing written agreements. In the case of contracts with governments or governmental agencies amounts are included in funded backlog when the firm contractual commitment is supported by funding that has been appropriated and authorized for expenditure.
     Our total contract backlog was $610 million as of June 27, 2008. Total contract backlog includes two components: funded backlog and expected backlog. Expected backlog reflects management’s estimate of future revenue from existing written contracts, such as master contracts with large corporations and large federal, state and municipal multi-year contracts for which funding for work or tasks has not yet been authorized in writing by the other contracting party. The amount of expected backlog included in total contract backlog is not exact or guaranteed; however, it represents what we reasonably believe, based upon subjective factors such as past experience with the particular clients, the type of work and present budgetary expectations and information about the clients’ needs and other business circumstances, will become funded backlog over the next five to seven years. These estimates are based upon the information in our possession at the time the estimate is made. If Versar’s management does not accurately assess each of these factors, or if it does not include all of the variables that affect the revenue it will recognize from existing contracts in the estimating process, the potential value of these contracts, and accordingly, reported total contract backlog, will not reflect the actual revenue received from contracts and task orders.
     As a result, there can be no assurance that we will ultimately receive amounts included in total contract backlog that are not included in funded backlog or that total contract backlog includes all revenue that we may ultimately receive under contracts existing at any one time. Further, many factors that affect the scheduling of projects could alter the actual timing of revenue on projects included in total contract backlog. There is also the possibility that contracts could be adjusted or cancelled in a manner that would affect the realization of revenues reflected in backlog. The failure to realize all amounts in backlog could adversely affect our revenues and margins.

Due to these uncertainties, our funded backlog and our total contract backlog as of any particular date may not be an accurate indicator of our future earnings.
We could face potential liability for failure to properly design remediation.
     A part of our business involves the design and implementation of remediation at environmental clean-up sites. If we fail to properly design and build a remediation system or if someone claims that we did, we could face expensive litigation and settlement costs. If we failed to successfully defend against such a lawsuit, it could materially affect our business.
Our failure to properly manage projects may result in additional costs or claims.
     Our engagements often involve complex projects. The quality of our performance on such projects depends in large part upon our ability to manage the relationship with our clients, and to effectively manage the projects and deploy appropriate resources in a timely manner. If we miscalculate the resources or time we need to complete a project with capped or fixed fees, or the resources or time we need to meet contractual milestones, our operating results could be adversely affected. Further, any defects or errors, or failures to meet our client’s expectations, could result in claims for damages against us.
Our services expose us to significant risks of liability and it may be difficult to obtain or maintain adequate insurance coverage.
     Our services involve significant risks of professional and other liabilities that may exceed the fees we derive from performance. Our business activities could expose us to potential liability under various environmental laws and under workplace health and safety regulations. In addition, we sometimes may assume liability by contract under indemnification agreements. We are not able to predict the magnitude of any such liabilities.
     We obtain insurance from third parties to cover our potential risks and liabilities. It is possible that we may not be able to obtain adequate insurance to meet our needs, may have to pay an excessive amount for the insurance coverage we want, or may not be able to acquire any insurance for certain types of business risks.
We operate in highly competitive industries.
     The markets for many of our services are highly competitive. There are numerous professional architectural, engineering and environmental consulting firms, and other organizations which offer many of the same services offered by us. We compete with many companies, many of which have greater resources than us and we cannot assure you that such competitors will not substantially increase the resources devoted to their business in a manner competitive with the services provided by us. Competitive factors include reputation, performance, price, geographic location and availability of technically skilled personnel. In addition, we face competition from the use by our clients of in-house environmental, engineering and other staff.
Our quarterly and annual revenue, expenses and operating results may fluctuate significantly, which could have a negative effect on the price of our common stock.
     Our quarterly and annual revenues, expenses and operating results have and may continue to fluctuate significantly because of a number of factors, including:
    the seasonality of the spending cycle of our public sector clients, notably the Federal government, and the spending patterns of our private sector clients;
 
    employee hiring and utilization rates in the United States and internationally;
 
    the number and significance of client engagements commenced and completed during the period;
 
    delays incurred in connection with an engagement because of weather or other factors;

9


 

    ability to work within foreign countries regulations, tax requirements and obligations;
 
    business and financial risk working in foreign countries;
 
    the ability of clients to terminate engagements without penalties;
 
    the creditworthiness and solvency of clients;
 
    the size and scope of engagements;
 
    the ability to perform contracts within budget or contractual limitations;
 
    the timing of expenses incurred for corporate initiatives;
 
    threatened or pending litigation matters;
 
    reductions in the prices of services offered by our competitors;
 
    winning re-bids of our existing large government contracts;
 
    general economic and political conditions; and
 
    volatility of currencies in foreign countries.
     Variations in any of these factors could cause significant fluctuations in our operating results from quarter to quarter and could result in net losses.
We are highly dependent on key personnel.
     Our business is managed by a small number of key management and operating and professional personnel, the loss of certain of whom could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The market for these professionals is competitive and we believe that our ability to manage planned growth successfully will depend in large part on our continued ability to attract and retain highly skilled and qualified personnel.

ITEM 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Financial Trends
     In fiscal year 2006, the Company’s gross revenues declined primarily due to the continuation of federal government delays in funding, which in certain instances, spanned as much as nine months and the continued diversion of funding to the war in Iraq. The Company adapted to the funding shifts by expanding its services in Iraq work under existing contracts and seeking new contract work in Iraq. By the end of fiscal year 2006, the project funding began to return to normal levels and increased the Company’s funded backlog by 55% to $48 million. By the end of fiscal year 2007, as a result of continued efforts to grow the business and with new contracts, funded backlog had increased by an additional 19% to $57 million. During fiscal year 2008, backlog continued to grow, increasing by 12% to $64 million at June 27, 2008.
     Approximately 53% of the Company’s business volume related to the reconstruction efforts in Iraq in fiscal year 2008. However, the Company is taking steps to further diversify its business if opportunities in Iraq are reduced or are eliminated. The Company’s primary focus is on BRAC efforts and requirements which have been delayed as a result of the war in Iraq. Gross revenues and gross profit increased among all business segments in fiscal year 2008. We see the Compliance and Environmental business segment being impacted by the funding of work into fiscal year 2009. We continue to follow the funding shifts in Iraq and Afghanistan to maintain and expand our business basis. The funding of BRAC work world-wide represents our greatest opportunity for growth in fiscal year 2009.
     The Company re-evaluated its segment reporting in fiscal year 2007 due to the business growth and changes in the business mix during the year. The Company’s business is now operated through four segments as follows: Program Management, Compliance and Environmental Programs, Professional Services, and National Security. Program Management continues to be the largest business segment of the Company.
     These segments were segregated based on the nature of the work, business processes, customer base and the business environment each of the segments operates in. Information in previous periods has been allocated among these segments as discussed below for comparative purposes.
     There are a number of risk factors or uncertainties that could significantly impact our future financial performance including the following:
    General economic or political conditions;
 
    Threatened or pending litigation;
 
    The timing of expenses incurred for corporate initiatives;
 
    Employee hiring, utilization, and turnover rates;
 
    The seasonality of spending in the federal government and for commercial clients;
 
    Delays in project contracted engagements;
 
    Unanticipated contract changes impacting profitability;
 
    Reductions in prices by our competitors;
 
    The ability to obtain follow-on project work;
 
    Failure to properly manage projects resulting in additional costs;
 
    The cost of compliance for the Company’s laboratories;
 
    The results of a negative government audit potentially impacting our costs, reputation and ability to work with the federal government;
 
    Loss of key personnel;
 
    The ability to compete in a highly competitive environment; and
 
    Federal funding delays due to war in Iraq.

     Gross revenue for the Program Management business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $68,896,000, an increase of $10,131,000 (17%) over that reported in fiscal year 2007 and for fiscal year 2007 increased by $39,258,000 (201%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increases in both periods are attributable to the Company’s continued efforts to support both the Air Force and the Army in Iraq as part of the reconstruction support efforts. Gross revenue for the Compliance and Environmental Programs business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $30,429,000, an increase of $590,000 (2%) over that reported in fiscal year 2007 and for fiscal year 2007 was $2,881,000 (11%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increases are primarily attributable to increased work for municipal aquatic facilities. Gross revenue for the Professional Services business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $8,101,000, an increase of $783,000 (11%) over that reported in fiscal year 2007 and for fiscal year 2007 was $308,000 (4%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increases are attributable to additional work obtained from the U.S. Army to provide additional professional services. Gross revenue for the National Security business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $8,176,000, an increase of $1,372,000 (20%) over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Gross revenue in the National Security business segment for fiscal year 2007 was $609,000 (8%) lower than that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increase in fiscal year 2008 is attributable to higher commercial laboratory testing work and a decline in the level of activity in fiscal year 2007. The decrease in fiscal year 2007 compared to fiscal year 2006 was attributable to reduced chemical laboratory work in fiscal year 2007.
     Purchased services and materials increased by $5,757,000 (9%) in fiscal year 2008 compared to that reported in fiscal year 2007. Purchased services and materials for fiscal year 2007 increased by $36,152,000 (136%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increases in both periods were attributable to increases in gross revenues in the Program Management business segment as mentioned above.
     Direct costs of services and overhead include the cost to Versar of direct and overhead staff, including recoverable and unallowable costs that are directly attributable to contracts. Direct costs of services and overhead increased by $4,153,000 (14%) in fiscal year 2008 compared to that reported in fiscal year 2007. Direct costs of services and overhead in fiscal year 2007 increased by $1,218,000 (4%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increase is due to increased marketing and sales costs, staffing and recruiting costs in support of the Company’s business growth in fiscal years 2008 and 2007.

     Gross profit for fiscal year 2008 was $13,788,000, a $2,966,000 (27%) increase over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Gross profit for fiscal year 2007 increased by $4,468,000 (70%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increases are attributable to the increase in gross revenue discussed.

     Gross profit for the Program Management business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $9,398,000, an increase of $2,361,000 (34%) over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Gross profit for fiscal year 2007 was $6,222,000 (763%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increase is due to the increased gross revenue and operating margins. Gross profit for the Compliance and Environmental Programs business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $2,390,000, an increase of $77,000 (3%) over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Gross profit for the Compliance and Environmental Programs business segment for fiscal year 2007 decreased by $672,000 (23%) compared to fiscal year 2006. The increase in fiscal year 2008 is the result of stabilizing the business base as funds shifted to the Iraq war effort in the prior fiscal year causing the reduced results in fiscal year 2007. Gross profit for the Professional Services business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $1,290,000, a $33,000 (3%) increase over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Gross profit for the Professional Services business segment for fiscal year 2007 was $122,000 (9%) lower than that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increase in 2008 is attributable to the increased gross revenue as mentioned above. This reporting segment was also impacted by the shift of federal dollars to the war effort in Iraq, yet has been successful in fiscal year 2008 in replacing lost work with larger professional services opportunities. Gross profit for the National Security business segment for fiscal year 2008 was $710,000, an increase of $495,000 (230%) over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Gross profit for the National Security business segment for fiscal year 2007 decreased by $960,000 (82%) as compared to fiscal year 2006. The increase in fiscal year 2008 is due to increased laboratory work and improved operating margins during the year. In fiscal year 2007, this segment had significant business setbacks in its chemical laboratory operations which have stabilized in fiscal year 2008.
     Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal year 2008 were $8,297,000, an increase of $1,628,000 (24%) over fiscal year 2007. Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal year 2007, increased by $996,000 (18%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increases are primarily due to increased business development activity to continue the business growth of the Company, and expanding the Company’s internal infrastructure to support such growth, as well as Sarbanes Oxley compliance costs incurred.
     Operating income for fiscal year 2008 was $5,491,000, a $1,338,000 (32%) increase over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Operating income for fiscal year 2007 was $3,472,000 (510%) over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increase is primarily due to the increased gross revenues and improved operating business margins during both fiscal years.

ITEM 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
     Interest income for fiscal year 2008 was $173,000, an increase of $149,000 over that reported in fiscal year 2007. Interest income for fiscal year 2007 was $13,000 over that reported in fiscal year 2006. The increases were due to improved cash balances maintained with the Company’s bank.
     Income tax expense for fiscal year 2008 was $2,273,000 an increase of $3,378,000 over that reported in fiscal year 2007. During fiscal year 2007, the Company was carrying a valuation allowance against its tax assets. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company re-evaluated the need for the valuation allowance. Because of the Company’s continued improved financial performance and funded contract backlog over the past three years, management believes that the Company will be able to utilize the full benefit of the tax asset. At the end of fiscal year 2008, the Company has approximately $1.5 million of tax assets available.
     Versar’s net income for fiscal year 2008 was $3,391,000 compared to $5,282,000 in fiscal year 2007 and $1,347,000 in fiscal year 2006. The reduction in net income was impacted by the non-cash tax accrual during fiscal year 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     The Company’s working capital as of June 27, 2008 was approximately $22,271,000, an increase of 38% over that reported in fiscal year 2007. In addition, the Company’s current ratio at June 27, 2008 was 2.67, compared to 2.01 reported on June 29, 2007. With the increase in business volume in fiscal year 2008, the Company has been able to improve its financial ratios and further increase its ability to fund working capital requirements by over $6 million compared to fiscal year 2007.
     The Company has a line of credit facility with United Bank (the Bank) that provides for advances up to $7.5 million based upon qualifying receivables. Interest on borrowings is based upon the prime rate of interest minus half basis point (4.5% as of June 27, 2008). In October 2006, the Company obtained a letter of credit of approximately $1.6 million which serves as collateral for surety bond coverage provided to the Company’s insurance carrier against project construction work. The letter of credit reduces the Company’s borrowing availability on the line of credit. The line of credit capacity at of June 27, 2008 was $5.9 million. Obligations under the credit facility are guaranteed by the Company and each subsidiary individually and collectively are secured by accounts receivable, equipment and intangibles, plus all insurance policies on property constituting collateral. The credit facility matures in November 2009. The line of credit is subject to certain covenants related to the maintenance of financial ratios. These covenants require a minimum tangible net worth of $15 million, a maximum

19


 

ITEM 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio not exceed 2.5 to 1; and a minimum current ratio of at least 1.25 to 1. Failure to meet the covenant requirements gives the Bank the right to demand outstanding amounts due under the line of credit, which may impact the Company’s ability to finance its working capital requirements. As of June 27, 2008, no borrowings were outstanding under the facility and the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants.
     The Company believes that its current cash balance of approximately $12 million along with the anticipated cash flows from operating activities and borrowing capacity under its line of credit facility will be sufficient to meet the Company’s liquidity needs for fiscal year 2009. Expected capital expenditures for fiscal year 2009 are approximately $1 million primarily to maintain the Company’s existing information technology systems and upgrade business systems and infrastructure to meet business growth requirements. Such capital requirements will be funded through existing working capital.
Contractual Obligations
     At June 27, 2008, the Company has short-term and long-term obligations of approximately $12,622,000, including short-term obligations of approximately $2,816,000 which will become due over the next twelve months in fiscal year 2009. The Company has contractual obligations primarily related to lease commitments and notes payable. The table below specifies the total contractual payment obligations as of June 27, 2008.

Critical Accounting Policies and Related Estimates That Have a Material Effect on Versar’s Consolidated Financial Statements
     Below is a discussion of the accounting policies and related estimates that we believe are the most critical to understanding the Company’s consolidated, financial position, and results of operations which require management judgments and estimates, or involve uncertainties. Information regarding our other accounting policies is included in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report on Form 10-K.
     Revenue recognition: Contracts in process are stated at the lower of actual costs incurred plus accrued profits or incurred costs reduced by progress billings. On cost-plus fee contracts, revenue is recognized to the extent of costs incurred plus a proportionate amount of fee earned, and on time-and-material contracts, revenue is recognized to the extent of billable rates times hours delivered plus material and other reimbursable costs incurred. The Company records income from major fixed-price contracts, extending over more than one accounting period, using the percentage-of-completion method. During the performance of such contracts, estimated final contract prices and costs are periodically reviewed and revisions are made as required. Fixed price contracts can be significantly impacted by changes in contract performance, contract delays, liquidated damages and penalty provisions, and contract change orders, which may affect the revenue recognition on a project. Revisions to such estimates are made when they become known.

20


 

ITEM 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
     There is the possibility that there will be future and currently unforeseeable adjustments to our estimated contract revenues, costs and margins for fixed price contracts, particularly in the later stages of these contracts. Such adjustments are common in the construction industry given the nature of the contracts. These adjustments could either positively or negatively impact our estimates due to the circumstances surrounding the negotiations of change orders, the impact of schedule slippage, subcontractor claims and contract disputes which are normally resolved at the end of the contract.
     Allowance for doubtful accounts: Disputes arise in the normal course of the Company’s business on projects where the Company is contesting with customers for collection of funds because of events such as delays, changes in contract specifications and questions of cost allowability and collectibility. Such disputes, whether claims or unapproved change orders in process of negotiation, are recorded at the lesser of their estimated net realizable value or actual costs incurred and only when realization is probable and can be reliably estimated. Management reviews outstanding receivables on a regular basis and assesses the need for reserves, taking into consideration past collection history and other events that bear on the collectibility of such receivables.
     Net deferred tax asset: The Company has approximately $1.5 million in net deferred tax assets as of June 27, 2008. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company released the entire $2.95 million tax valuation allowance that was previously established against such assets due to the improved earnings and likelihood of using such assets in future periods. The Company anticipates that the majority of available deferred tax assets will be utilized over the next 6 to 9 months.
     Asset retirement obligation: During fiscal year 2007, the Company recorded an asset retirement obligation associated with the estimated clean-up costs for its chemical laboratory in its National Security business segment. In accordance with SFAS 143, the Company estimated the costs to clean up the laboratory and return it to its original state at a present value of approximately $497,000. The Company currently estimates the amortization and accreation expense to be approximately $180,000 to $190,000 per year over the next 2 1/2 years. The Company is rigorously pursuing reimbursement for such costs and other costs from the U.S. Army as a significant portion of the chemical agent that was used in the chemical laboratory was government owned. If the Company determines that the estimated clean up cost is larger than expected or the likelihood of recovery from the U.S. Army is remote, such adjustments will be reflected when they become known in accordance with SFAS 143. At June 27, 2008, the Company has accrued approximately $539,000 long-term liability to clean up the chemical laboratory.
     Goodwill and other intangible assets: The carrying value of goodwill is approximately $776,000 relating to the acquisition of Versar Global Solutions, Inc., which is now part of the Program Management business segment. The Program Management business segment was broken out separately in fiscal year 2007, primarily due to the increase in business volume in Iraq and in the United States construction related work. In performing its goodwill impairment analysis, management has utilized a market-based valuation approach to determine the estimated fair value of the Program Management business segment. Management engages outside professionals and valuation experts, as necessary, to assist in performing this analysis. An analysis was performed on public companies and company transactions to prepare a market-based valuation. Based upon the analysis, the estimated fair value of the Program Management business segment exceeds the carrying value of the net assets of $6.5 million on an enterprise value basis by a substantial margin. Should the Program Management business segments financial performance not meet estimates, then impairment of goodwill would have to be further assessed to determine whether a write down of goodwill value would be warranted. If such a write down were to occur, it would negatively impact the Company’s financial position and results of operations. However, it would not impact the Company’s cash flow or financial debt covenants.

ITEM 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
     Share-based compensation: Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (FAS 123(R)). This Statement revised SFAS No. 123 by eliminating the option to account for employee stock options under APB No. 25 and related interpretations and generally requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (the “fair-value-based” method).
     In fiscal year 2006, the Company adopted FAS 123(R) and recorded share-based compensation expense related to the vesting of the previously granted stock options in its consolidated financial statements of approximately $4,000, $18,000 and $48,000 for fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
     The Company also awarded 121,500 shares, 42,800 shares and 12,500 shares of restricted stock to directors and employees in fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Share-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock was $807,000, $114,000 and $19,000 for fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
     New accounting pronouncements: On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty of Income Taxes, which is an interpretation of FAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The FASB issued FIN No. 48 to address concerns about the diversity in financial reporting to tax positions with uncertainty. The regulation requires that the Company cannot record tax benefits of a transaction unless it is more likely than not to be entitled to the benefits from a tax position in the financial statements. FIN No. 48 becomes effective as of July 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN No. 48 did not impact the consolidated Results of Operations for fiscal year 2008.
     In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued a Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157. The Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years and will apply to the Company commencing with fiscal year 2008. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial results of the Company.
     In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting. Most of the provisions in SFAS 159 are elective and may be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted, provided the Company also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. The Company does not believe the provisions of SFAS 159 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R),Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) changes the requirements for an acquiring entity’s recognition and measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is in the process of determining what effect, if any, the application of the provisions of SFAS 141(R) will have on its financial position and results of operations.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—An Amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS 160 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Impact of Inflation
     Versar seeks to protect itself from the effects of inflation. The majority of contracts the Company performs are for a period of a year or less or are cost-plus-fixed-fee type contracts and, accordingly, are less susceptible to the effects of inflation. Multi-year contracts provide for projected increases in labor and other costs.
Business Segments
     Versar currently has four business segments: Program Management, Compliance and Environmental Programs, Professional Services, and National Security. The details on these segments are in Note B of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ITEM 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     The Company has not entered into any transactions using derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments and believes that its exposure to interest rate risk and other relevant market risk is not material.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
     The consolidated financial statements and supplementary data begin on page F-2 of this report.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
     None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
     Evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) was carried out as of June 27, 2008, the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report. This evaluation was made by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (a) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported and (b) include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
     Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

23


 

    Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
 
    Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
 
    Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
     Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
     Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failure. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
     The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 27, 2008. In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission’s Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
     Based on our assessment, management has concluded that, as of June 27, 2008, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
     This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
     There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control that occurred during last fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information
     None.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Versar, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Versar, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 27, 2008. Our audits of the basic financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(2)(a). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Versar, Inc., and subsidiaries as of June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007 and the results of their operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 27, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statements schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

VERSAR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     Principles of consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Versar, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Versar or the Company). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s major business segments are Program Management, Compliance and Environmental Programs, Professional Services, and National Security (see Note B).
     Accounting estimates: The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
     Contract accounting: Contracts in process are stated at the lower of actual cost incurred plus accrued profits or incurred cost reduced by progress billings. The Company records income from major fixed-price contracts, extending over more than one accounting period, using the percentage-of-completion method. During performance of such contracts, estimated final contract prices and costs are periodically reviewed and revisions are made as required. The effects of these revisions are included in the periods in which the revisions are made. On cost-plus-fee type contracts, revenue is recognized to the extent of costs incurred plus a proportionate amount of fee earned, and on time-and-material contracts, revenue is recognized to the extent of billable rates times hours delivered plus material and other reimbursable costs incurred. Losses on contracts are recognized when they become known. Disputes arise in the normal course of the Company’s business on projects where the Company is contesting with customers for collection of funds because of events such as delays, changes in contract specifications and questions of cost allowability or collectibility. Such disputes, whether claims or unapproved change orders in the process of negotiation, are recorded at the lesser of their estimated net realized value or actual costs incurred and only when realization is probable and can be reliably estimated. Claims against the Company are recognized where loss is considered probable and reasonably determinable in amount. Management reviews outstanding receivables on a regular basis and assesses the need for reserves taking into consideration past collection history and other events that bear on the collectibility of such receivables.
     Pre-contract costs: Costs incurred by Versar prior to the execution of a contract, including bid and proposal costs, are expensed when incurred regardless of whether the bid is successful.
     Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization are computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
     Goodwill and other intangible assets: The carrying value of goodwill is approximately $776,000 which relates to the acquisition of Versar Global Solutions, Inc., which is now part of the Program Management business segment. In performing its goodwill impairment analysis, management has utilized a market-based valuation approach to determine the estimated fair value of the Program Management business segment. Management engages outside professionals and valuation experts, annually, to assist in performing this analysis. An analysis was performed on public companies and company transactions to prepare a market-based valuation. Based upon the analysis, the estimated fair value of the Program Management business segment exceeds the carrying value of the net assets of $6.5 million. Therefore, management concluded that the goodwill was not impaired.
     Direct costs of services and overhead: These expenses represent the cost to Versar of direct and overhead staff, including recoverable overhead costs and unallowable costs that are directly attributable to contracts performed by the Company.
     Income taxes: The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of certain assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established, as necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized in future periods.

VERSAR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
     Asset retirement obligation: During fiscal year 2007, the Company recorded an asset retirement obligation associated with the estimated clean-up costs for its chemical laboratory in its National Security business segment. In accordance with SFAS 143, the Company estimated the costs to clean up the laboratory and return it to its original state at a present value of approximately $497,000. The Company currently estimates the amortization and accreation expense to be between $180,000 to $190,000 per year over the next 2 1/2 years. The Company is currently pursuing reimbursement for such costs and other costs from the U.S. Army as a significant portion of the chemical agent that was used in the chemical laboratory was government owned. If the Company determines that the estimated clean up cost is larger than expected or the likelihood of recovery from the U.S. Army is remote, such adjustments will be reflected when they become known in accordance with SFAS 143. At June 27, 2008, the Company has accrued approximately $539,000 long-term liability to clean up the chemical laboratory.
     Discontinued operations: In fiscal year 1998, the Company discontinued a significant portion of the operations of Science Management Corporation (SMC). Since 1998, the Company has disposed of substantially all of the remaining assets and liabilities of SMC with the exception of certain defined benefit obligations. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company recorded an increase of $205,000 to the defined benefit obligation based on a revised actuarial calculation of the remaining SMC pension plan obligation. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, an additional $85,000 increase to the obligation was made to cover under funding and plan termination costs. At June 30, 2006, the Company had a liability of approximately $278,000 to cover the cost to terminate the SMC pension plan in accordance with the Pension Guaranty Corporation Benefit (PBGC) requirements. At June 29, 2007, the Company successfully completed the final distribution of benefits to eligible participants and final regulatory filing requirements.
     Share-based compensation: Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)). This Statement revised SFAS No. 123 by eliminating the option to account for employee stock options under APB No. 25 and related interpretations and generally requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (the “fair-value-based” method).
     As of June 27, 2008, options to purchase common stock under the plans were substantially vested except for 10,000 shares of non-qualified options to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock, which will vest based on the Company’s share price reaching a pre-determined amount for an extended period of time.
     The Company recorded share-based compensation expense related to the vesting of the previously granted stock options in its consolidated financial statements of approximately $4,000, $18,000 and $48,000 for fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
     Restricted Stock Grants: The Company awarded 121,500 shares, 42,000 shares and 12,500 shares of restricted stock to directors and employees in fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Share-based compensation expense related to options under SFAS 123R and restricted stock for fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $807,000, $132,000 and $67,000, respectively. The impact of such compensation expense on basic and diluted net income per common share was $0.09, $0.02 and $0.01 for fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
     Net income per share: Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share also includes common equivalent shares outstanding during the period, if dilutive. The Company’s common equivalent shares consist of shares outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock.

     For fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, options to purchase approximately 10,000, 30,000 and 341,156 shares, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
     Deferred compensation: The Company permitted certain employees to defer a portion of their compensation, during fiscal years 1988 through 1991, to provide for future annual payments, including interest. Interest is accrued on a monthly basis at the amount stated in each employee’s agreement. The Company had liabilities for deferred compensation of $636,000 and $673,000 at June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively, which is included in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Versar purchased key-man life insurance policies to fund the amounts due under the deferred compensation agreements. The cash surrender value of the policies was $566,000 and $556,000 at June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively. The face value of the life insurance policies is in excess of the deferred compensation liability.
     Cash and cash equivalents: All investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
     Foreign Currency Translation: The financial positions and results of operations of the Company’s foreign affiliates are translated using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the affiliates are translated at the exchange rate in effect at year-end. Income statement accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates from period to period are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions included in operations are not material for the periods presented.
     Fair value of financial instruments: The carrying amounts of Versar’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and amounts included in other current assets and current liabilities that meet the definition of a financial instrument approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these amounts.
     Classification: Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
     New accounting pronouncements: On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty of Income Taxes, which is an interpretation of FAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The FASB issued FIN No. 48 to address concerns about the diversity in financial reporting of tax positions with uncertainty. The regulation prohibits the Company from recording tax benefits of a transaction unless it is more likely than not that the Company will be entitled to the benefits from the tax position in the financial statements. FIN No. 48 became effective as of July 1, 2007. The Company has determined that there were no unrecognized tax benefits that require FIN No. 48 adjustments.

VERSAR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
     In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued a Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157. The Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years and will apply to the Company commencing with fiscal year 2008. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial results of the Company.
     In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting. Most of the provisions in SFAS 159 are elective and may be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted, provided the Company also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. The Company does not believe the provisions of SFAS 159 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) changes the requirements for an acquiring entity’s recognition and measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is in the process of determining what effect, if any, the application of the provisions of SFAS 141(R) will have on its financial position and results of operations.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—An Amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS 160 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE B BUSINESS SEGMENTS
     The Company evaluates and measures the performance of its business segments based on gross revenue, gross profit and operating income. As such, selling, general and administrative expenses, interest and income taxes have not been allocated to the Company’s business segments.
     Management re-evaluated its segment reporting in fiscal year 2007 due to significant growth in its business and changes in the internal reporting of business segment financial information that was evaluated by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The Company’s business is currently operated through four business segments as follows: Program Management, Compliance and Environmental Programs, Professional Services, and National Security.
     These segments were segregated based on the nature of the work, business processes, customer base and the business environment in which each of the segments operate. Segment information for fiscal year 2006 has been revised to conform to the current structure.
     The Program Management business segment manages larger more complex projects whose business processes and management are unique to the rest of the Company. The Compliance and Environmental Programs business segment provides consulting support to several federal government and municipal agencies. The Professional Services business segment provides outsourced personnel to various government agencies providing our clients with cost-effective resources. The National Security business segment provides unique solutions to the federal government including testing and evaluation and personal protective solutions to meet our clients needs.

VERSAR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
NOTE E DEBT
     The Company has a line of credit facility with United Bank (the Bank) that provides for advances up to $7.5 million based upon qualifying receivables. Interest on borrowings is based upon the prime rate of interest minus one-half basis of a point (4.5% as of June 27, 2008). In October 2006, the Company obtained a letter of credit of approximately $1.6 million which serves as collateral for surety bond coverage provided by the Company’s insurance carrier against project construction work. The letter of credit reduces the Company’s availability on the line of credit. The line of credit capacity at of June 27, 2008 was $5.9 million. Obligations under the credit facility are guaranteed by the Company and each subsidiary individually and collectively are secured by accounts receivable, equipment and intangibles, plus all insurance policies on property constituting collateral. The credit facility matures in November 2009. The line of credit is subject to certain covenants related to the maintenance of financial ratios. These covenants require a minimum tangible net worth of $15 million, a maximum total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio not exceed 2.5 to 1; and a minimum current ratio of at least 1.25 to 1. Failure to meet the covenant requirements gives the Bank the right to demand outstanding amounts due under the line of credit, which may impact the Company’s ability to finance its working capital requirements. As of June 27, 2008, there was no outstanding borrowing under this credit facility and the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants.
     The Company believes that with its current cash balance of approximately $12 million along with the anticipated cash flows and line of credit facility, cash provided by operating activities will be sufficient to meet the Company’s liquidity needs within the next fiscal year. Expected capital requirements for fiscal year 2009 are approximately $1 million primarily to maintain the Company’s existing information technology systems. Such capital requirements will be funded through existing working capital.
NOTE F STOCK OPTIONS
     In November 2005, the stockholders approved the Versar, Inc. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2005 Plan). The 2005 Plan provides for granting of incentive awards, including stock options, SARS, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance based awards to directors, officers and employees of the Company and its affiliates as approved from time to time by the Company’s Compensation Committee. Only employees may receive stock options classified as “incentive stock options”, also known as “ISO’s”. The per share exercise price for options and SARS granted under the 2005 Plan shall not be less than the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. A maximum of 400,000 shares of Common Stock may be awarded under the 2005 Plan. No single director, officer, or employee may receive awards greater than 100,000 shares of Common Stock during the term of the 2005 Plan. The ability to make awards under the 2005 Plan will terminate in November 2015. At June 27, 2008, there were approximately 240,000 shares available for future issuance.
     In November 2002, the stockholders approved the Versar, Inc. 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2002 Plan”). The 2002 Plan provides for the grant of options, restricted stock and other types of share-based awards to any employee, service provider or director to whom a grant is approved from time to time by the Company’s Compensation Committee. A “service provider” is defined for purposes of the 2002 Plan as an individual who is neither an employee nor a director of the Company or any of its affiliates but who provides the Company or one of its affiliates substantial and important services. An aggregate of 700,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock may be issued upon exercise of options or granted as restricted stock or other share-based awards under the 2002 Plan. Grants of restricted stock, performance equity awards, options and stock appreciation rights in any one fiscal year to any one participant may not exceed 250,000 shares. The maximum amount of compensation that may be received by any one employee with respect to performance unit grants in any one fiscal year may not exceed $250,000. At June 27, 2008, there were approximately 441,000 shares available for future issuance.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
     The Company also maintains the Versar 1996 Stock Option Plan (the “1996 Plan”) and the Versar 1992 Stock Option Plan (the “1992 Plan”).
     Under the 1996 Plan, through September 2006, options were permitted to be granted to key employees, directors and service providers at the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The vesting of each option was determined by the Administrator of the Plan. Each option expires on the earlier of the last day of the tenth year after the date of grant or after expiration of a period designated in the option agreement. The 1996 Plan has expired and no additional options may be granted.
     Under the 1992 Plan, through November 2002, options were generally granted to key employees at the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and became exercisable during the five-year period from the date of the grant at 20% per year. Options were granted with a ten year term and expired if not exercised by the tenth anniversary of the grant date. The 1992 plan has expired and no additional options may be granted.
     The Company will continue to maintain the 1996 Plan and 1992 Plan until all previously granted options under each plan have been exercised, forfeited or expire. No stock options have been issued under the 2005 Plan as the Company has moved to primarily issuing restricted stock awards to date.

     Given the Company’s history of earnings and improved projected pre-tax income for future periods, management concluded in fiscal year 2007 that more likely than not the U.S. deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods. As such, the valuation allowance was no longer necessary and was reversed in fiscal year 2007. During fiscal year 2008, Versar management decided to establish a valuation allowance on its Philippine operations as it is not more likely than not that deferred tax assets will be realized for these operations in future periods as current projections appear to indicate periods of pre-tax loss.
     At June 27, 2008, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $953,000 for federal income tax purposes related to SMC, which will expire in the years 2009 through 2012. Due to the substantial changes in SMC’s ownership, there are limitations on the amount of the carryforwards that can be utilized. As a result of such limitation, approximately $561,000 of the SMC net operating loss carryforwards are expected to expire unused. At June 27, 2008, the Company had SMC net operating loss carryforwards of $392,000 that it expects to be able to use to reduce future taxable income. Additionally, the Company had $200,000 of alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards, which can be carried forward indefinitely.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
     Income taxes paid for the years ended June 27, 2008, June 29, 2007 and June 30, 2006 were $199,000, $55,000 and $44,000, respectively.
NOTE H EMPLOYEE SAVINGS AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
     The Company continues to maintain a 401(k) Plan, which permits voluntary participation upon employment. The 401(k) Plan was adopted in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
     Under the 401(k) Plan, participants may elect to defer up to 50% of their salary through contributions to the plan, which are invested in selected mutual funds or used to buy insurance. The Company matches 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next 2% of the employee qualified contributions for a total match of 4%. The employer contribution may be made in the Company’s stock or cash. In fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company made cash contributions of $729,000, $649,000 and $658,000, respectively. All contributions to the 401(k) Plan vest immediately.
     In January 2005, the Company established an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) under Section 423 of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The ESPP allows eligible employees of the Company and its designated affiliates to purchase, through payroll deductions, shares of common stock of the Company from the open market. The Company will not reserve shares of authorized but unissued common stock for issuance under the ESPP. Instead, a designated broker will purchase shares for participants on the open market. Eligible employees may purchase the shares at a discounted rate equal to 95% of the closing price of the Company’s shares on the American Stock Exchange on the purchase date.
     GEOMET, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Versar, maintained a profit-sharing retirement plan for the benefit of its employees until January 2008. Under the plan, contributions are made at the discretion of GEOMET’s Board of Directors. No contributions have been made to this plan since fiscal year 1998. Vesting occured over time, such that an employee is 100% vested after seven years of participation. In January 2008, Geomet profit sharing plan was terminated and merged into the Company’s 401(k) plan.
NOTE I COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
     Versar has a substantial number of U.S. Government contracts, the costs of which are subject to audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). All fiscal years through 2006 have been audited and closed. Management believes that the effect of disallowed costs, if any, for the periods not yet audited and settled with DCAA will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
     The Company leases approximately 138,000 square feet of office space, as well as data processing and other equipment under agreements expiring through 2020. Minimum future obligations under operating and capital leases are as follows:

     Certain of the lease payments are subject to adjustment for increases in utility costs and real estate taxes. Total office rental expense approximated $2,513,000, $2,111,000 and $2,535,000, for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Lease concessions and other tenant allowances are amortized over the life of the lease on a straight line basis. For leases with fixed rent escalations, the total lease costs including the fixed rent escalations are totaled and the total rent cost is recognized on a straight line basis over the life of the lease.
     On February 8, 2005, Versar, Inc. entered into an employment agreement with its Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mr. Theodore M. Prociv. The agreement stipulated base compensation of $285,000 and certain benefits that the CEO is entitled to under various termination conditions. The agreement was originally scheduled to expire on December 1, 2006 and was extended to December 1, 2007 on September 7, 2006. In September 2007, the Compensation Committee extended Mr. Prociv’s agreement for an additional year to December 2008 and approved base salary of $330,000 for the year extension of the agreement..
Legal Proceedings
     Versar and its subsidiaries are parties from time to time to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. The Company believes that any ultimate unfavorable resolution of these legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
