Consolidated revenue this quarter was $364.5 million compared to $406.7 million last year.

Second-quarter consolidated earnings before interest and taxes(1) (EBIT) were $61.2 million, or 16.8% of revenue. EBIT before the restructuring charge was $62.3 million, or 17.1% of revenue.

"The civil aerospace sector remains a challenge, but our healthy financial position and our diversification among products and services, military and civil markets and our presence on all continents around the world is helping to mitigate its effects," said Marc Parent, CAE's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are continuing to adjust our business in terms of structure and people to reduce costs and to be able to generate cash and profits through the aerospace downturn. We expect continued strong growth in military and the eventual recovery in our civil segments will build on this solid base."

Business highlights

In our military segments we won orders of $178.4 million during the quarter including major upgrade work for two German CH-53 full-mission simulators and a range of A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport trainers for the United Arab Emirates and the Royal Saudi Air Force.

In our civil segments we secured training and services contracts with an expected value of $82.9 million and we were awarded $26.8 million in contracts including two full-flight simulators (FFSs) from Kenya Airways and Korean Air. Following the end of the quarter, we signed an additional two full flight simulator orders. Year-to-date we have announced 10 FFS orders and we continue to expect a total of 20 this fiscal year.

Comparative periods of fiscal 2009 have been restated to reflect a change
in the accounting treatment for pre-operating costs.

Second quarter revenue in the TS/C segment decreased 5% compared to last year due to softer market conditions in North America and Europe. Since last year we deployed 10 additional Revenue Simulator Equivalent Units (RSEUs) to our network and we grew our revenue base in the emerging markets. These factors helped to offset some pressures we experienced in the legacy markets.

Compared to last quarter, revenue decreased 10% mainly due to seasonality and market weakness.

Segment operating income was $15.9 million (15.5% of revenue) in the second quarter, compared to $20.8 million (18.1% of revenue) last quarter and $19.5 million (18.1% of revenue) in the second quarter last year.

Last quarter we realized a gain on the disposal of two simulators, compared to one this quarter. Softness in Europe was partially offset by our cost containment measures, which have begun to take hold.

Markets in North America and Europe slowed and we were impacted this quarter by unfavourable foreign exchange translation on our working capital accounts. These negatives were partially offset by the addition of more RSEUs and higher activity in the emerging markets.

Foreign exchange movements were favourable in the comparison of year over year results but unfavourable between the first and second quarters of this fiscal year.

New orders for the quarter totalled $82.9 million, and segment backlog was $792.3 million. The book-to-sales ratio was 0.81x in the quarter and 0.95x for the last 12 months.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenue in the SP/C segment was $63.9 million during the second quarter, down 44% from last year mainly because of an extended facility shutdown of three weeks in July and furlough days, which occurred during the quarter. As well, volume was affected by lower orders this year and the recognition of revenue last year on some simulators that were partially built when sales contracts were signed.

Segment operating income was $12.4 million (19.4% of revenue) in the second quarter, down 47% from last year because of lower volume and the emergence of pricing pressure. The impact of the challenging market conditions was partially offset by favourable foreign exchange hedging. Contracts subsequently added to backlog have been affected by more pronounced pricing pressure and the continued strength of the Canadian dollar relative to our other main operating currencies. We continue to take action to deal with the difficult market situation in this segment as we believe these conditions will prevail for a while.

During the quarter, we received orders for two civil FFSs. SP/C orders for the quarter totalled $26.8 million, and segment backlog was $254.5 million. This quarter's book-to-sales ratio was 0.42x. The ratio for the last 12 months was 0.77x.

Military segments

Revenue in the second quarter for our combined Military business was $197.8 million and operating income was $34.0 million, resulting in an operating margin of 17.2%.

Combined new orders this quarter totalled $178.4 million for a book-to-sales ratio of 0.90x. The ratio was 1.41x for the last 12 months.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenue in the SP/M segment was $137.4 million in the second quarter, up 9% year over year mainly because of higher activity on various NH90 helicopter programs and the integration into our results of DSA, which we acquired in May 2009.

Segment operating income this quarter was $24.3 million (17.7% of revenue), up 13% year over year mainly because of the higher program activity and more investment tax credits.

New orders for the quarter totalled $113.5 million and segment backlog reached $889.8 million at the end of the quarter. This quarter's book-to-sales ratio was 0.83x. The ratio for the last 12 months was 1.24x.

Comparative periods of fiscal 2009 have been restated to reflect a change
in the accounting treatment for pre-operating costs.

Revenue in the TS/M segment was $60.4 million in the second quarter, up 3% year over year mainly because of more work on maintenance service contracts in Canada and Germany and increased NH90 helicopter training activity in Germany.

Segment operating income was $9.7 million this quarter, down 16% from the same period last year. The decrease is the result of a larger dividend from a U.K.-based investment last year compared to this year and higher bid and proposal costs this year related to the current high level of marketing activity.

New orders this quarter totalled $64.9 million and segment backlog reached $1.098 billion at the end of the quarter. The book-to-sales ratio was 1.07x for the quarter and 1.77x for the last 12 months.

Cash flow and financial position

CAE's free cash flow(2) was $93.5 million at the end of the second quarter, up $123.2 million from last quarter and up $51.0 million year over year. Since last quarter we decreased our investment in non-cash working capital and cash provided by continuing operating activities increased by $24.6 million.

Growth capital expenditures were $13.5 million this quarter and maintenance capital expenditures were $12.8 million.

Net debt(3) was $257.8 million at September 30, 2009, down $82.9 million from last quarter mainly from increased cash before proceeds and repayment of long-term debt and by the strengthening of the Canadian dollar against our foreign denominated debt.

CAE will pay a dividend of $0.03 per share on December 31, 2009 to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 15, 2009.

Additional consolidated financial results

Restructuring

A restructuring charge of $1.1 million was incurred during the second quarter as part of a restructuring plan we announced in May 2009. We continue to expect to incur a total charge of $32 million for the restructuring program and we expect to complete this by the end of the fiscal year.

Orders and backlog

Our consolidated backlog was $3.035 billion at the end of the quarter, compared to $3.278 billion last quarter. New orders of $288.1 million were added to backlog, offset by $364.5 million in revenue generated from backlog. As well, our backlog decreased by $167.0 million of which $128.4 million is mainly the result of foreign exchange adjustments and $38.6 million is due to the reassessment of TS/C backlog.

Income taxes

Income taxes were $14.7 million this quarter, representing an effective tax rate of 27%. The tax rate was lower this quarter and year to date because of changes in the mix of income in various jurisdictions for tax purposes. We now expect the average effective tax rate for the year to be approximately 29%.

Notes

(1) Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) is a non-GAAP measure that shows us how we have performed before the effects of certain financing decisions and tax structures. We track EBIT because we believe it makes it easier to compare our performance with previous periods, and with companies and industries that do not have the same capital structure or tax laws.

(2) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that tells us how much cash we have available to build the business, repay debt and meet ongoing financial obligations. We use it as an indicator of our financial strength and liquidity. We calculate it by taking the net cash generated by our continuing operating activities, subtracting maintenance capital expenditures, other assets and dividends paid and adding proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment.

(3) Net debt is a non-GAAP measure we use to monitor how much debt we have after taking into account liquid assets such as cash and cash equivalents. We use it as an indicator of our overall financial position, and calculate it by taking our total long-term debt (debt that matures in more than one year), including the current portion, and subtracting cash and cash equivalents.
