ELBIT SYSTEMS LTD.
AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
NOTE 1 - GENERAL
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in a condensed
format as of September 30, 2003, and for the nine months and three
months then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) relating to the preparation
of financial statements for interim periods. See Note 6 for the
reconciliation from US GAAP to accounting principles generally accepted
in Israel (Israeli GAAP).
THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
COMPANY'S ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ACCOMPANYING NOTES AS OF
DECEMBER 31, 2002.
The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. All such
adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Reclassifications have
been made to comparative data in the balance sheet as of December 31,
2002, in order to conform with the current year's presentation.
Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 2003.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. The significant accounting policies followed in the
preparation of these statements are identical to those applied
in preparation of the latest annual financial statements.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in
U.S. dollars since the functional currency of the primary
economic environment in which the operations of the Group
(which includes Elbit Systems Ltd. and its subsidiaries) are
conducted is the U.S. dollar.
B. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research
Xxxxxxxx Xx. 00 ("xxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"). In general, a variable
interest entity (VIE) is an entity that has (1) insufficient
amount of equity for the entity to carry on its principal
operations, without additional subordinated financial support
from other parties, (2) a group of equity investors that do
not have the ability through voting or similar rights to make
decisions about the entity's activities, or (3) a group of
equity investors that do not have the obligation to absorb the
entity's losses or have the right to receive the benefits of
the entity. The
ELBIT SYSTEMS LTD.
AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED (CONT.)
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
B. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Cont.)
interpretation requires the consolidation of a VIE by the
primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity
that absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses,
receives a majority of the entity's expected residual returns,
or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other
financial interests in the entity.
Presently, entities are generally consolidated by an
enterprise that has a controlling financial interest through
ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity.
Pursuant to FASB Staff Position Fin 46-6, the Company has
decided to apply the provisions of this interpretation as of
December 31, 2003, in respect of variable interests in VIEs
created before February 1, 2003. The provisions of this
interpretation apply immediately to variable interests in VIEs
created after January 31, 2003. Since the Company has no such
interests in VIEs created after January 31, 2003, the
application of this interpretation had no impact on the
Company's consolidated results of operations or consolidated
balance sheet to date.
The Company has investments in and loans to various companies
that are engaged primarily in the fields of high technology.
Most of these companies are in their early stages of
development and will require substantial third party
investments until they can finance their activities without
additional support from other parties. These companies are
currently primarily funded with financing from venture capital
funds, other holding companies and private investors. The
investments in these companies are consolidated or accounted
for by the equity or cost method by the Company.
The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this
interpretation in respect of its investments. It is possible
that some of its unconsolidated investees may be considered a
VIE in accordance with the interpretation. Accordingly, if it
is determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of a
VIE, the Company will be required to consolidate the financial
statements of such a VIE with its own financial statements as
of December 31, 2003.

NOTE 5 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, ("APB 25") "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and the
FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions
Involving Stock Compensation" in accounting for its employee stock
option plans. According to APB 25, compensation expense is measured
under the intrinsic value method, whereby compensation expense is equal
to the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the
grant date of the award or other measurement date over the exercise
price.
The following pro forma information presents the effect on the
Company's consolidated stock-based employee compensation expense, net
income and earnings per share as if the fair value based method
provided under FASB Statement No. 123 ("SFAS 123") had been applied to
all outstanding awards in each period.
Under SFAS 123, the fair value of each option grant was estimated on
the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
