IEH CORPORATION
PART I
Item I. Business
IEH Corporation (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") was
organized under the laws of the State of New York on March 22, 1943
under the name Industrial Heat Treating Company, Inc. On March 15,
1989, the Company changed its name to its current name. The Company's
executive offices and manufacturing facilities are located at 140 58th
Street, Suite 8E, Brooklyn, New York 11220. The Company's telephone
number is (718) 492-4448; Fax: 718-492-9898; its email address is
ieh@iehcorp.com.
The Company has been approved by the federal government as a "Hub-zone
small business Company". This classification is monitored, and while
the Company must remain competitive, it is taken into account by large
business concerns when awarding specific contracts.
The majority of the Company's customers require that the Company
maintain quality system in strict accordance with ISO9001. This is an
International Standard Organization specification for which the Company
has recently been audited and has received certification to ISO:2000.
The Company's quality policy is: "Listening to our Customers and
meeting their needs, while continuously improving our processes and
services."
The Company has developed a web site that reflects the standard catalog
items we produce. The web site is an ongoing project and we will
continue to add special items and newsworthy information to it. The
Company's web site can be viewed by going to: http://www.iehcorp.com.
----------------------
The Company designs, develops and manufactures printed circuit
connectors for high performance applications. Our customers consist of
OEM's (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and Distributors who sell our
products to OEMs. We sell our products directly and through regional
representatives located in the United States and Canada.
The customers we service are in the government, aerospace, medical,
automotive, test equipment and commercial electronics markets. We
appear on the Military Qualified Product Listing "QPL" to MIL-C-55302
and supply customer requested modifications to this specification.
Sales to the commercial electronic market and military defense market
were 27% and 72% of the Company's net sales for the year ended March
30, 2007.
In order to remain competitive, the Company has an internal program to
upgrade and maintain machinery (to increase production), review
material costs and increase labor force productivity.
New Product Development
The Company is sought after by many of its customers to design and
manufacture custom connectors for them. This environment has resulted
in the development of many new products and technologies.
The Company has developed a new technology for a high speed connector
module for one of its customers. Because it has been so well received,
it will be used in 5 (five) other programs for which the customer has
contracts.

Item I. Business (continued)
New Product Development (continued)
In addition to the many standard products we manufacture, it is in the
area of custom connector design and manufacture that the Company faces
its biggest challenge. To meet this challenge, we are able to draw upon
our dedicated staff of engineers. We work with many designs and will
continue to support our customers in all their requirements.
Commitments
The Company has a collective bargaining multi-employer pension plan
("Multi-Employer Plan") with the United Auto Workers of America, Local
259. Contributions are made in accordance with a negotiated labor
contract and are based on the number of covered employees employed per
month. With the passage of the Multi-Employer Pension Plan Amendments
Act of 1990 (the "Act"), the Company may become subject to liabilities
in excess of contributions made under the collective bargaining
agreement. Generally, these liabilities are contingent upon the
termination, withdrawal, or partial withdrawal from the Multi-Employer
Plan. The Company has not taken any action to terminate, withdraw or
partially withdraw from the Multi-Employer Plan nor does it intend to
do so in the future. Under the Act, liabilities would be based upon the
Company's proportional share of such Plan's unfunded vested benefits,
which is currently not available. The amount of accumulated benefits
and net assets of such Plan also is not currently available to the
Company. The total contributions charged to operations under such Plan
were $69,122 for the year ended March 30, 2007 and $62,771 for the year
ended March 31, 2006.
On June 30, 1995, the Company applied to the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation ("PBGC") to have the PBGC assume all of the Company's
responsibilities and liabilities under its Salaried Pension Plan. On
April 26, 1996, the PBGC determined that the Salaried Pension Plan did
not have sufficient assets available to pay benefits, which were and
are currently due under the terms of the Plan.
The PBGC further determined that pursuant to the provisions of the
Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA")
that the Salaried Pension Plan must be terminated in order to protect
the interests of such Plan's participants. Accordingly, the PBGC
proceeded pursuant to ERISA to have the Plan terminated and the PBGC
appointed as statutory trustee, and to have July 31, 1995 established
as the Plan's termination date.
The Company and the PBGC have agreed to the terms of a settlement of
the matter. The agreement is effective July 2, 2001. Under the
agreement, the Company and the PBGC agreed on a total sum of $244,000.
The Company has agreed to make payments as follows:
September 1, 2003 to August 1, 2004 $2,000 per month
September 1, 2004 to August 1, 2006 $3,000 per month
September 1, 2006 to August 1, 2007 $4,000 per month
Additionally, the Company has made balloon payments of $25,000 each on
January 1, 2004, May 1, 2004, May 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006. The
Company also granted the PBGC a lien on the Company's machinery and
equipment.

As a result of this agreement the amount due the PBGC was restated to
$244,000. $43,000 was paid during the year ended March 30, 2007,
$86,000 was paid during the year ended March 31, 2006, $56,000 was paid
during the year ended March 25, 2005 and $39,000 was paid during the
year ended March 26, 2004. The remaining balance of $20,000 is reported
as a current liability in the accompanying financial statements.
Marketing and Sales
The market for connectors and interconnection devices, domestic and
worldwide, is highly fragmented as a result of the manufacture by many
companies of a multitude of different types and varieties of
connectors. For example, connectors include: printed circuit,
rectangular I/O, circular, planar (IOC) RF coax, IC socket and fiber
optic. The Company has been servicing a niche in the market by
manufacturing HYPERTAC (TM) connectors and innovative Company-designed
printed circuit connectors such as the COMTAC connectors. Previously,
the Company was one of only three licensed manufacturers of the
HYPERTAC (TM) design in the United States. In the fiscal year 1996, the
Company learned that the other two licensees had merged. Moreover, the
Company, based upon advice of counsel, determined that the HYPERTAC
technology was no longer protected by a patent, and therefore was in
the public domain. As a result, the Company notified the licensor that
it would no longer be bound by the terms of its license agreement and
the Company ceased making license payments. The Company has received a
brief notice from the licensor that it disputed the Company's
interpretations and demanded return of certain equipment. No legal
proceedings have been instituted by the licensor and the Company has
not received any further notices. The Company does not anticipate
manufacturing other types of connectors in the immediate future. The
Company is continuously experimenting with innovative connection
designs, which may cause it to alter its marketing plans in the future
if a market should develop for any of its current or future innovative
designs.
The Company's products are marketed to original equipment manufacturers
directly and through distributors serving primarily the government,
military, aerospace and commercial electronics markets. The Company is
also involved in developing new connectors for specific uses, which
result from changes in technology. This includes the COMTAC connectors.
The Company assists customers in the development and design of
connectors for specific customer applications. This service is marketed
to customers who require the development of connectors and
interconnection devices specially designed to accommodate the customers
own products.
The Company is primarily a manufacturer and its products are
essentially basic components of larger assemblies of finished goods.
Approximately 91% of the Company's net sales for the years ended March
30, 2007 and March 31, 2006, respectively, were made directly to
manufacturers of finished products with the balance of the Company's
products sold to distributors. Distributors often purchase connectors
for customers who do not require large quantities of connectors over a
short period of time but rather require small allotments of connectors
over an extended period of time.
Two of the Company's customers accounted for 23% of the Company's net
sales for the year ended March 30, 2007. For the year ended March 31,
2006, one of those customers accounted for
-4-
IEH CORPORATION
PART I
Item I. Business (continued)
approximately 19% of the Company's sales. The Company currently employs
14 independent sales representatives to market its products in all
regions in the United States.
Backlog of Orders/Capital Requirements
These independent sales representatives also promote the product lines
of other electronics manufacturers; however, they do not promote the
product lines of competitors, which compete directly with the Company's
products. These sales representatives accounted for approximately 94%
of Company sales (with the balance of Company sales being generated via
direct customer contact) for the year ended March 30, 2007.
International sales accounted for less than 1% of sales for the years
ended March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006, respectively.
The backlog of orders for the Company's products amounted to
approximately $2,864,000 at March 30, 2007, as compared to $1,830,000
at March 31, 2006. A portion of these orders are subject to
cancellation or postponement of delivery dates and, therefore, no
assurance can be given that actual sales will result from these orders.
The Company does not foresee any problems, which would prevent it from
fulfilling its orders.
Competition
The design, development, manufacture and distribution of electrical
connectors and interconnection devices is a highly competitive field.
The Company principally competes with companies who produce high
performance connectors in printed circuits and wireboards for high
technology application. The Company competes with respect to their
abilities to adapt certain technologies to meet specific product
applications; in producing connectors cost-effectively; and in
production capabilities. In addition, there are many companies who
offer connectors with designs similar to those utilized by the Company
and are direct competitors of the Company.
The primary basis upon which the Company competes is product
performance and production capabilities. The Company usually receives
job orders after submitting bids pursuant to customer-issued
specifications. The Company also offers engineering services to its
customers in designing and developing connectors for specialized
products and specific customer applications. This enables the Company
to receive a competitive advantage over those companies who basically
manufacture connectors based solely or primarily on cataloged
specifications. Many of the Company's competitors have greater
financial resources, market penetration and experience than the Company
and no assurances can be given that the Company will be able to compete
effectively with these companies in the future.
Suppliers of Raw Materials and Component Parts
The Company utilizes a variety of raw materials and manufactured
component parts, which it purchases from various suppliers. These
materials and components are available from numerous sources and the
-5-
IEH CORPORATION
PART I
Item I. Business (continued)
Suppliers of Raw Materials and Component Parts (continued)
Company does not believe that it will have a problem obtaining such
materials in the future. However, any delay in the Company's ability to
obtain necessary raw materials and component parts may affect its
ability to meet customer production needs. In anticipation of such
delays, the Company carries an inventory of raw materials and component
parts to avoid shortages and to insure continued production.
Research & Development
The Company provides personalized engineering services to its customers
by designing connectors for specific customer applications. The
employment of electromechanical engineers is the anticipated
cornerstone of the Company's future growth. The Company maintains a
testing laboratory where its engineers experiment with new connector
designs based on changes in technology and in an attempt to create
innovative, more efficient connector designs.
The Company expended $10,000 and $21,000 for the years ended March 30,
2007 and March 31, 2006, respectively, on Company sponsored research
and development activities relating to the development of new designs,
techniques and the improvement of existing designs. In addition, the
Company received $10,000 in revenues for the year ended March 30, 2007
and $21,000 for the year ended March 31, 2006, respectively, pursuant
to customer sponsored research activities.
Employees
The Company presently employs approximately 80 people, two (2) of whom
are executive officers; four (4) are engaged in management activities;
five (5) provide general and administrative services and approximately
69 are employed in manufacturing and testing activities. The employees
engaged in manufacturing and testing activities are covered by a
collective bargaining agreement with the United Auto Workers of
America, Local 259 (the "Union"), which originally expired on March 31,
2006 and was renegotiated and extended until March 31, 2009. The
Company believes that it has a good relationship with its employees and
the Union.
Patents and Licenses
Electrical connectors and interconnection devices are usually the
subject of standard designs; therefore, only innovations of standards
designs or the discovery of a new form of connector are patentable. The
Company is continuously attempting to develop new forms of connectors
or adaptations of current connector designs in an attempt to increase
performance and decrease per unit costs. The Company has developed and
designed the COMTAC connector, which was patented on January 19, 1988,
at which time the patent was assigned to the Company.
Governmental Regulations
The Company is subject to federal regulations under the Occupational
Safety and Health Act ("OSHA") and the Defense Electrical Supply
Command ("DESC"). OSHA provides federal guidelines and
-6-

Governmental Regulations (continued)
specifications to companies in order to insure the health and safety of
employees. DESC oversees the quality and specifications of products and
components manufactured and sold to the government and the defense
industry. Although DESC continuously requires suppliers to meet
changing specifications, the Company has not encountered any
significant problems meeting such specifications and its products have,
in the past, been approved. The Company is unaware of any changes in
the government's regulations, which are expected to materially affect
the Company's business.
Item 2. Properties
The Company exercised its option to renew its lease on its facility for
10 years. The original lease was effective through August 23, 2001.
The Company is obligated under this renewal lease through August 23,
2011, at minimum annual rentals as follows:
Fiscal year ending March:
2008 $168,384
2009 168,384
2010 168,384

The Company leases approximately 20,400 feet of space, of which it
estimates, 6,000 square feet are used as executive, sales and
administrative offices and 14,400 square feet are used for its
manufacturing and plating.
The rental expense for the year ended March 30, 2007 and March 30, 2006
was $142,369 and $136,325, respectively. In addition to the base rent,
the Company pays real estate taxes, insurance premiums and utility
charges relating to the use of the premises. The Company considers its
present facilities to be adequate for its present and anticipated
future needs.

Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Statements contained in this report, which are not historical facts may
be considered forward looking information with respect to plans,
projections, or future performance of the Company as defined under the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause
actual results to differ materially form those projected. The words
"anticipate," "believe", "estimate", "expect," "objective," and "think"
or similar expressions used herein are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are based on
the Company's current views and assumptions and involve risks and
uncertainties that include, among other things, the effects of the
Company's business, actions of competitors, changes in laws and
regulations, including accounting standards, employee relations,
customer demand, prices of purchased raw material and parts, domestic
economic conditions, including housing starts and changes in consumer
disposable income, and foreign economic conditions, including currency
rate fluctuations. Some or all of the facts are beyond the Company's
control.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and related footnotes, which provide
additional information concerning the Company's financial activities
and condition.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date
of the Financial Statements, and revenues and expenses during the
periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
Company believes the following are the critical accounting policies,
which could have the most significant effect on the Company's reported
results and require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments
by management.
-9-
IEH CORPORATION
PART II
Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)
Critical Accounting Policies (continued)
o Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever
events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected cash
flows, undiscounted and without interest, is less than the
carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized as
the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its
fair value. The Company makes estimates of its future cash flows
related to assets subject to impairment review.
o Inventory Valuation:
Raw materials and supplies are valued at the lower of first-in,
first-out cost or market. Finished goods and work in process are
valued at the lower of actual cost, determined on a specific
identification basis, or market. The Company estimates which
materials may be obsolete and which products in work in process or
finished goods may be sold at less than cost, and adjusts their
inventory value accordingly. Future periods could include either
income or expense items if estimates change and for differences
between the estimated and actual amount realized from the sale of
inventory.
o Income Taxes:
The Company records a liability for potential tax assessments
based on its estimate of the potential exposure. Due to the
subjectivity and complex nature of the underlying issues, actual
payments or assessments may differ from estimates. Income tax
expense in future periods could be adjusted for the difference
between actual payments and the Company's recorded liability based
on its assessments and estimates.
o Revenue Recognition:
Revenues are recognized at the shipping date of the Company's
products. The Company has historically adopted the shipping terms
that title merchandise passes to the customer at the shipping
point (FOB Shipping Point). At this juncture, title has passed,
the Company has recognized the sale, inventory has been relieved,
and the customer has been invoiced. The Company does not offer any
discounts, credits or other sales incentives.
The Company's policy with respect to customer returns and
allowances as well as product warranty is as follows:
The Company will accept a return of defective product within one
year from shipment for repair or replacement at the Company's
option. If the product is repairable, the Company at its own cost
will repair and return it to the customer. If unrepairable, the
Company will either offer an allowance against payment or will
reimburse the customer for the total cost of the product.

Results of Operations (continued)
Year End Results: March 30, 2007 vs. March 31, 2006
Operating revenues for the year ended March 30, 2007 amounted to
$6,255,606 reflecting a 17.6% decrease versus the year ended March 31,
2006 revenues of $7,588,253. The decrease in revenues is a direct
result of a decrease in defense and commercial sales.
The Company is primarily a manufacturer and its products are
essentially basic components of larger assemblies of finished goods.
Approximately 91% of the Company's net sales for the fiscal years ended
March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006, respectively, were made directly to
manufacturers of finished products with the balance of the Company's
products sold to distributors. Distributors often purchase connectors
for customers who do not require large quantities of connectors over a
short period of time but rather require small allotments of connectors
over an extended period of time.
For the fiscal year ended March 30, 2007, two of the Company's
customers accounted for approximately 23% of total sales. One of those
customers accounted for approximately 19% of sales in the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2006.
The Company currently employs 14 independent sales representatives to
market its products in all regions of the United States. These sales
representatives accounted for approximately 94% of the Company's sales,
with the balance of sales being generated by direct customer contact.
For the fiscal year ended March 30, 2007, the Company's principal
customers included manufacturers of commercial electronic products,
military defense contractors and distributors who service these
markets. Sales to the commercial electronic and government markets
comprised 27% and 72% of the Company's net sales for the year ended
March 30, 2007 and 26% and 73% for the year ended March 31, 2006.
Approximately 1% of net sales were made to international customers in
each fiscal year.
Cost of products sold amounted to $4,619,126 for the fiscal year ended
March 30, 2007, or 73.8% of operating revenues. This reflected a
$237,155 or 4.9% decrease in the cost of products sold from $4,856,281
or 64% of operating revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.
This decrease is due primarily to the decreased cost of production
associated with the decrease in defense and commercial sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,138,668 and
$1,253,458 or 18.2% and 16.5% of operating revenues for the fiscal
years ended March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006, respectively. This
category of expense decreased by $114,790 or 9.2% from the prior year.
The decrease can be attributed to a decrease in commissions and travel.
Interest expense was $73,506 for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2007
or 1.2% of operating revenues. For the fiscal year ended March 31,
2006, interest expense was $90,616 or 1.2% of operating revenues. The
decrease of $17,110 or 18.9% reflects the liquidation of a significant
amount of the Company's debt.

Results of Operations (continued)
Year End Results: March 30, 2007 vs. March 31, 2006
Depreciation and amortization of $184,757 or 3.0% of operating revenues
was reported for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2007. This reflects a
decrease of $19,496 or 9.5% from the prior year ended March 31, 2006 of
$204,253 or 2.7% of operating revenues. The decrease is due primarily
to a decrease in capital assets being purchased over the current fiscal
year.
The Company reported net income of $200,693 for the year ended March
30, 2007 representing basic earnings of $.09 per share as compared to
net income of $1,137,622 or $.49 per share for the year ended March 31,
2006. The decrease in net income for the current year can be attributed
primarily to the reported decrease in defense and commercial sales.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company reported working capital of $1,267,189 as of March 30, 2007
compared to a working capital of $1,083,444 as of March 31, 2006. The
increase in working capital of $183,745 was attributable to the
following items:
Net income $ 200,693
Depreciation and amortization 184,757
Capital expenditures (176,869)
Other transactions (24,836)
---------
$ 183,745

As a result of the above, the current ratio (current assets to current
liabilities) was 1.95 to 1 at March 30, 2007 as compared to 1.8 to 1.0
at March 31, 2006. Current liabilities at March 30, 2007 were
$1,334,302 compared to $1,392,060 at March 31, 2006.
The Company reported $176,869 in capital expenditures for the year
ended March 30, 2007 and reported depreciation of $184,757 for the year
ended March 30, 2007.
The net income of $200,693 for the year ended March 30, 2007 resulted
in an increase in stockholders' equity to $2,484,020 as compared to
stockholders' equity of $2,283,327 at March 31, 2006.
The Company has an accounts receivable financing agreement with a
factor, which bears interest at 2.5% above prime with a minimum of 12%
per annum. At March 30, 2007 the amount outstanding with the factor was
$477,387 as compared to $269,099 at March 31, 2006. The loan is secured
by the Company's accounts receivables and inventories. The factor
provides discounted funds based upon the

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
Company's accounts receivables, these funds provide the primary source
of working capital for operations.
In the past two fiscal years, management has been reviewing its
collection practices and policies for outstanding receivables and has
revised its collection procedures to a more aggressive collection
policy. As a consequence of this new policy the Company's experience is
that its customers have been remitting payments on a more consistent
and timely basis. The Company reviews the collectablity of all accounts
receivable on a monthly basis. The reserve is less than 2% of average
gross accounts receivable and is considered to be conservatively
adequate.
During the year ended March 26, 2004, two of the Company's officers
loaned the Company a total of $52,000 on a non-interest bearing basis.
The Company used these funds as a source of additional working capital.
During the year ended March 25, 2005, one of these officers loaned the
Company an additional $135,744 on a non-interest bearing basis as well.
These funds were also used by the Company for working capital
requirements. Through the period ended March 31, 2006, the Company had
repaid $108,744 of the total funds loaned to it.
During the year ended March 30, 2007 one of the officers loaned the
company an additional $88,000 on a non-interest bearing basis. During
the same period the company had repaid $76,000 of the loans made to it.
The balance due to one of these officers at March 30, 2007 was $91,000.
The Company has a collective bargaining Multi-Employer Plan with the
United Auto Workers of America, Local 259. Contributions are made in
accordance with a negotiated labor contract and are based on the number
of covered employees employed per month. With the passage of the Act,
the Company may become subject to liabilities in excess of
contributions made under the collective bargaining agreement.
Generally, these liabilities are contingent upon the termination,
withdrawal, or partial withdrawal from the Multi-Employer Plan. The
Company has not taken any action to terminate, withdraw or partially
withdraw from the Multi-Employer Plan nor does it intend to do so in
the future. Under the Act, liabilities would be based upon the
Company's proportional share of such Plan's unfunded vested benefits,
which is currently not available. The amount of accumulated benefits
and net assets of such Plan also is not currently available to the
Company. The total contributions charged to operations under the
Multi-Employer Plan were $69,122 for the year ended March 30, 2007 and
$62,771 for the year ended March 31, 2006.
On June 30, 1995, the Company applied to the PBGC to have the PBGC
assume all of the Company's responsibilities and liabilities under its
Salaried Pension Plan. On April 26, 1996, the PBGC determined that the
Salaried Pension Plan did not have sufficient assets available to pay
benefits, which were and are currently due under the terms of the
Salaried Pension Plan.

The PBGC further determined that pursuant to the provisions of the
ERISA that the Salaried Pension Plan must be terminated in order to
protect the interests of the Plan's participants. Accordingly, the PBGC
proceeded pursuant to ERISA to have the Salaried Pension Plan
terminated and the PBGC appointed as statutory trustee, and to have
July 31, 1995 established as the Plan's termination date.
The Company and the PBGC agreed to the terms of a settlement of the
matter. The agreement is effective July 2, 2001. Under the agreement,
the Company and the PBGC agreed on a total sum of $244,000. The Company
has agreed to make payments as follows:
September 1, 2003 to August 1, 2004 $2,000 per month
September 1, 2004 to August 1, 2006 $3,000 per month
September 1, 2006 to August 1, 2007 $4,000 per month
Additionally, the Company has made balloon payments of $25,000 each on
January 1, 2004, May 1, 2004, May 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006.
The Company also granted the PBGC a lien on the Company's machinery and
equipment.
As a result of this agreement the amount due the PBGC was restated to
$244,000. $43,000 was paid during the year ended March 30, 2007,
$86,000 was paid during the year ended March 31, 2006, $56,000 was paid
during the year ended March 25, 2005 and $39,000 was paid during the
year ended March 26, 2004. The remaining balance of $20,000 is reported
as a current liability on the accompanying financial statements.
On September 21, 2001 the Company's shareholders approved the adoption
of the Company's 2002 Employees Stock Option Plan to provide for the
grant of options to purchase up to 750,000 shares of the Company's
common stock to all employees, including senior management. No options
have been granted under the Employee Option Plan to date.
Options granted to employees under this plan may be designated as
options which qualify for incentive stock option treatment under
Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code, or option which do not so
qualify. Under this plan, the exercise price of an option designated as
an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than the fair market value
of the Company's common stock on the day the option is granted.
In the event an option designated as an incentive stock option is
granted to a ten percent (10%) share holder, such exercise price shall
be at least 110 Percent (110%) of the fair market value or the
Company's common stock and the option must not be exercisable after the
expiration of five years from the day of the grant. Exercise prices of
non-incentive stock options may be less than the fair market value of
the Company's common stock. The aggregate fair market value of shares
subject to options granted to its participants, which are designated as
incentive stock options, and which become exercisable in any calendar
year, shall not exceed $100,000. As of March 30, 2007 no options had
been granted under the plan.
In 1987, the Company adopted a cash bonus plan ("Cash Bonus Plan") for
Executive Officers. Contributions to the Cash Bonus Plan are made by
the Company only after pre-tax operating profits

exceed $150,000 for a fiscal year, and then to the extent of 10% of the
excess of the greater of $150,000 or 25% of pre-tax operating profits.
For the year ended March 30, 2007 the contribution was $20,000. For the
year ended March 31, 2006 the contribution was $75,500.
Effects of Inflation
The Company does not view the effects of inflation to have a material
effect upon its business. Increases in costs of raw materials and labor
costs have been offset by increases in the price of the Company's
products, as well as reductions in costs of production, reflecting
management's efforts in this area. While the Company has in the past
increased its prices to customers, it has maintained its relatively
competitive price position. However, significant decreases in
government and military subcontractor spending, has provided excess
production capacity in the industry, which in turn has tightened
pricing margins.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements within the
meaning of Item 303 of Regulation S-B.

Item 8. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our
Chief Executive Officer and Controller, conducted an evaluation of our
"disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-14(c)) within 90 days of the filing date
of this Report on Form 10-KSB. Based on their evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Controller have concluded that as of the end of
the period covered by this Form 10-KSB, our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective to ensure that all material information
required to be filed in this Report on Form 10-KSB has been made known
to them. Our Chief Financial Officer and Controller is our principal
accounting officer.
There have been no changes, including corrective actions with regard to
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal
controls or in other factors that have materially affected or could
significantly or materially affect these controls subsequent to the
Evaluation Date set forth above. In addition, historically, the Company
has relied upon the entire Board of Directors in appointing the
Company's independent auditors and reviewing the financial condition
and statements of the Company. Given the relatively small size of the
Company's operations and revenues, the Board has not believed that
appointing an independent committee was a necessity.

March 31, 2006, no fees were paid to Jerome Rosenberg, CPA P.C. with
respect to financial systems design or implementation.
Tax Fees. During the fiscal years ended March 30, 2007 and March 31,
2006, the Company paid to Jerome Rosenberg CPA P.C. the sums of $3,000
and $3,000 for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning services.
All Other Fees. During the fiscal year ended March 30, 2007, IEH did
not pay any other fees for services to its auditor.
The Board of Directors has determined that the services
provided by Jerome Rosenberg, CPA P.C. and the fees paid to it for such
services during the fiscal year ended March 30, 2007 has not
compromised the independence of Jerome Rosenberg, CPA P.C.
The Board of Directors of the Company is comprised of three
persons. Due to the limited size and scope of the Company's operations
which are limited to one office and the level of revenue and income,
the Board of Directors has not established an Audit Committee. Further,
as the Company's securities are not traded on any exchange or on
Nasdaq, but solely are listed for quotations on the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board, there is no requirement that an Audit Committee be
established. The Board, as an entirety, approves that appointment of
its independent auditor and the related work performed by the auditor
for services which are not audit related. In its deliberations
regarding approval of the independent auditor for auditing and other
services, the Board reviews the auditor's history of representing the
Company, the fees to be paid and paid historically, the level of
performance provided by the auditor and the ability of the Company,
given its lack of profits to obtain similar services for similar costs.
Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence,
the Board of Directors has responsibility for appointing, setting
compensation and overseeing the work of the independent auditor. In
recognition of this responsibility, the Board has established a policy
to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by
the independent auditor. Prior to engagement of the independent auditor
for the next year's audit, management advises the Board of the audit
and permissible non-audit services expected to be rendered during that
year for each of the categories of services which may provided by the
independent auditor to the Board for approval. The primary categories
of services expected to be provided by the independent auditor are as
described in the fee table set forth above. In addition, management
will also provide to the Board for its approval a fee proposal for the
services proposed to be rendered by the independent auditor. Prior to
the engagement of the independent auditor, the Board will approve both
the description of audit and permissible non-audit services proposed to
be rendered by the independent auditor and the budget for all such
services. The fees are budgeted and the Board requires the independent
auditor and management to report actual fees versus the budget
periodically throughout the year by category of service.
During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become
necessary to engage the independent auditor for additional services not
contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the
Board requires separate pre-approval before engaging the independent
auditor.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
-------------------------------------------------------
Board of Directors
IEH Corporation
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of IEH Corporation as of March
30, 2007 and March 31, 2006 and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the periods
ended March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based upon our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit 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 audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of IEH Corporation as of March 30,
2007 and March 31, 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
each of the two years ended March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006 in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

IEH CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Description of Business:
The Company is engaged in the design, development, manufacture and
distribution of high performance electronic printed circuit connectors
and specialized interconnection devices. Electronic connectors and
interconnection devices are used in providing electrical connections
between electronic component assemblies. The Company develops and
manufactures connectors, which are designed for a variety of high
technology and high performance applications, and are primarily
utilized by those users who require highly efficient and dense (the
space between connection pins with the connector) electrical
connections.
The Company is continuously redesigning and adapting its connectors to
meet and keep pace with developments in the electronics industry and
has, for example, developed connectors for use with flex-circuits now
being used in aerospace programs, computers, air-borne communications
systems, testing systems and other areas. The Company also services
its connectors to meet specified product requirements.
Accounting Period:
The Company maintains an accounting period based upon a 52-53 week
year, which ends on the nearest Friday in business days to March 31st.
The year ended March 30, 2007 was compromised of 52 weeks. The year
ended March 31, 2006 was comprised of 53 weeks.
Revenue Recognition:
Revenues are recognized at the shipping date of the Company's
products. The Company has historically adopted the shipping terms that
title merchandise passes to the customer at the shipping point (FOB
Shipping Point). At this juncture, title has passed, the Company has
recognized the sale, inventory has been relieved, and the customer has
been invoiced. The Company does not offer any discounts, credits or
other sales incentives.
The Company's policy with respect to customer returns and allowances
as well as product warranty is as follows:
The Company will accept a return of defective product within one year
from shipment for repair or replacement at the Company's option. If
the product is repairable, the Company at its own cost will repair and
return to the customer. If unrepairable, the Company will either offer
an allowance against payment or will reimburse the customer for the
total cost of product.
Most of the Company's products are custom ordered by customers for a
specific use. The Company provides engineering services as part of the
relationship with its customers in developing the custom product. The
Company is not obligated to provide such engineering service to its
customers. The Company does not charge separately for these services.

IEH CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at cost, on a first-in, first-out basis, which
does not exceed market value.
The Company manufactures products pursuant to specific technical and
contractual requirements. The Company historically purchases material
in excess of its requirements to avail itself of favorable pricing as
well as the possibility of receiving additional orders from customers.
This excess may result in material not being used in subsequent
periods, which may result in this material being deemed obsolete.
The Company annually reviews its purchase and usage activity of its
inventory of parts as well as work in process and finished goods to
determine which items of inventory have become obsolete within the
framework of current and anticipated orders. The Company based upon
historical experience has determined that if a part has not been used
and purchased or an item of finished goods has not been sold in three
years, it is deemed to be obsolete. The Company estimates which
materials may be obsolete and which products in work in process or
finished goods may be sold at less than cost. A periodic adjustment,
based upon historical experience is made to inventory in recognition
of this impairment.
Concentration of Credit Risk:
The Company maintains cash balances at one bank. Amounts on deposit
are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to
$100,000 in the aggregate. There were no uninsured balances at either
March 30, 2007 or March 31, 2006.
Property, Plant and Equipment:
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. The Company provides for depreciation
and amortization using the Double Declining Balance method over the
estimated useful lives (5-7 years) of the related assets.
Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to operations, and
renewals and betterments are capitalized. Items of property, plant and
equipment, which are sold, retired or otherwise disposed of, are
removed from the asset and accumulated depreciation or amortization
account. Any gain or loss thereon is either credited or charged to
operations.
Income Taxes:
The Company follows the policy of treating investment tax credits as a
reduction in the provision for federal income tax in the year in which
the credit arises or may be utilized. Deferred income taxes arise from
temporary differences resulting from different depreciation methods
used for financial and income tax purposes. The Company has adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes".
-34-
IEH CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
Net Income Per Share:
The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share", which requires the disclosure of "basic" and "diluted"
earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is similar
to basic earnings per share except that the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding is increased to reflect the dilutive effect
of potential common shares, such as those issuable upon the exercise
of stock or warrants, as if they had been issued. For the years ended
March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006, there were no items of potential
dilution that would impact on the computation of diluted earnings or
loss per share.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, consisting
of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and borrowings, approximate
their fair value due to the relatively short maturity (three months)
of these instruments.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual
amounts could differ from those estimates.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:
SFAS No. 144, "Accounting For The Impairment of Long-Lived Assets And
Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of", requires that long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by an entity
be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 144. There were no long-lived asset
impairments recognized by the Company for the years ended March 30,
2007 and March 31, 2006.
Reporting Comprehensive Income:
The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income". This Statement established standards for
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
(revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in an entity's financial
statements. This Statement requires an entity to classify items of
other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement
and display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income
separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in
the equity section of a statement of financial position. There were no
material items of comprehensive income to report for the years ended
March 30, 2007 and March 31, 2006.

IEH CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
Segment Information:
The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures
About Segment of An Enterprise and Related Information." This
Statement requires public enterprises to report financial and
descriptive information about its reportable operating segments and
establishes standards for related disclosures about product and
services, geographic areas, and major customers. The adoption of SFAS
No. 131 did not affect the Company's presentation of its results of
operations or financial position.
Research and Development:
The Company provides personalized engineering services to its
customers by designing connectors for specific customer applications.
The employment of electromechanical engineers is the anticipated
cornerstone of the Company's future growth. The Company maintains a
testing laboratory where its engineers experiment with new connector
designs based on changes in technology and in an attempt to create
innovative, more efficient connector designs.
The Company expended $10,000 and $21,000 for the years ended March 30,
2007 and March 31, 2006, respectively, on Company sponsored research
and development activities relating to the development of new designs,
techniques and the improvement of existing designs. In addition, the
Company received $10,000 in revenues for the year ended March 30, 2007
and $21,000 for the year ended March 31, 2006, respectively, pursuant
to customer sponsored research activities.
Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements:
The Company does not believe that any recently issued but not yet
effective accounting standards, have a material effect on the
Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 9 - INCOME TAXES:
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported
in the financial statements, and consist of taxes currently due as
well as deferred taxes related to differences between financial
statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities for financial
statement and income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities represent the future tax consequences of these temporary
differences, which will either be taxable or deductible in the year in
which the assets or liabilities are recovered or settled. Accordingly,
measurement of the deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to
the book-tax basis differentials are computed at a rate of 34% for
federal and l2% for state and local tax purposes.

realized. The change in valuation allowance amounted to $943,522 for
the year ended March 30, 2007.
As of March 30, 2007, the Company has available Federal net operating

purposes, the Company has available NOL's approximating $1,035,462,
which expire at various times through March 31, 2012.
Utilization of the NOL's may be limited pursuant to Internal Revenue
Code Section 382 should significant changes to the existing ownership
of the Company occur.

Note 10 - PENSION PLAN-SALARIED PERSONNEL:
On June 30, 1995, the Company applied to the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation ("PBGC") to have the PBGC assume all of the Company's
responsibilities and liabilities under its Salaried Pension Plan. On
April 26, 1996, the PBGC determined that the Salaried Pension Plan did
not have sufficient assets available to pay benefits, which were and
are currently due under the terms of the Plan.
The PBGC further determined that pursuant to the provisions of the
Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA"), that the Plan must be terminated in order to protect the
interests of the Plan's participants. Accordingly, the PBGC proceeded
pursuant to ERISA to have the Plan terminated and the PBGC appointed
as statutory trustee, and to have July 31, 1995 established as the
Plan's termination date.
The Company and the PBGC negotiated a settlement on the entire matter
and on July 2, 2001, an agreement was reached whereby the Company's
liability to the PBGC was reduced to $244,000. The Company will make
monthly payments to the PBGC as follows:
September 1, 2003 to August 1, 2004 $2,000 per month
September 1, 2004 to August 1, 2006 $3,000 per month
September 1, 2006 to August 1, 2007 $4,000 per month
Additionally, the Company has made balloon payments of $25,000 each on
January 1, 2004, May 1, 2004, May 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006.
The Company also granted the PBGC a lien on the Company's machinery
and equipment.
As a result of this agreement the amount due the PBGC was restated to
$244,000. $43,000 was paid during the year ended March 30, 2007,
$86,000 was paid during the year ended March 31, 2006, $56,000 was
paid during the year ended March 25, 2005 and $39,000 was paid during
the year ended March 26, 2004. The remaining balance of $20,000 is
reported as a current liability on the accompanying financial
statements.

Note 12- 2001 EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN:
On September 21, 2001 the Company's shareholders approved the adoption
of the Company's 2002 Employees Stock Option Plan ("2002 Plan") to
provide for the grant of options to purchase up to 750,000 shares of
the Company's common stock to all employees, including senior
management.
Options granted to employees under this plan may be designated as
options which qualify for incentive stock option treatment under
Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code, or options which do not so
qualify.
Under this 2002 Plan, the exercise price of an option designated as an
Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than the fair market value of
the Company's common stock on the day the option is granted. In the
event an option designated as an incentive stock option is granted to
a ten percent (10%) shareholder, such exercise price shall be at least
110 Percent (110%) of the fair market value or the Company's common
stock and the option must not be exercisable after the expiration of
five years from the day of the grant.
Exercise prices of non-incentive stock options may be less than the
fair market value of the Company's common stock.
The aggregate fair market value of shares subject to options granted
to a participant(s), which are designated as incentive stock options,
and which become exercisable in any calendar year, shall not exceed
$100,000. As of March 30, 2007 no options had been granted under the
2002 Plan.
Note 13 - CASH BONUS PLAN:
In 1987, the Company adopted a cash bonus plan ("Cash Bonus Plan") for
Executive Officers. Contributions to the Cash Bonus Plan are made by
the Company only after pre-tax operating profits exceed $150,000 for a
fiscal year, and then to the extent of 10% of the excess of the
greater of $150,000 or 25% of pre-tax operating profits. For the year
ended March 30, 2007 the contribution was $20,000. For the year ended
March 31, 2006 the contribution was $75,500.

Note 14 - COMMITMENTS:
The Company exercised its option to renew its lease on its facility
for 10 years. The original lease was in effect through August 23,
2001.
The Company is obligated under this lease renewal through August 23,
2011, at minimum annual rentals as follows:
Fiscal year ending March:
2008 $ 168,384

$ 617,408
============
The rental expense for the years ended March 30, 2007 and March 31,
2006 was $142,369 and $136,325, respectively.
The Company has a collective bargaining multi-employer pension plan
("Multi-Employer Plan") with the United Auto Workers of America,
Local 259. Contributions are made in accordance with a negotiated
labor contract and are based on the number of covered employees
employed per month. With the passage of the Multi-Employer Pension
Plan Amendments Act of 1990 (the "Act"), the Company may become
subject to liabilities in excess of contributions made under the
collective bargaining agreement. Generally, these liabilities are
contingent upon the termination, withdrawal, or partial withdrawal
from the Multi-Employer Plan.
The Company has not taken any action to terminate, withdraw or
partially withdraw from the Multi-Employer Plan nor does it intend to
do so in the future. Under the Act, liabilities would be based upon
the Company's proportional share of such Plan's unfunded vested
benefits, which is currently not available. The amount of accumulated
benefits and net assets of such Plan also is not currently available
to the Company. The total contributions charged to operations under
Multi-Employer Plan were $69,122 for the year ended March 30, 2007 and
$62,771 for the year ended March 31, 2006.

of the Company's sales. Accounts receivable as of March 30, 2007,
included receivables from one customer, which amounted to 15% of the
total accounts receivable.
