NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

Raven Industries, Inc. (the Company or Raven) is a diversified technology company providing a variety of products to customers within the industrial, agricultural, energy, construction and military/aerospace markets. The Company is comprised of three unique operating units, or divisions, classified into reportable segments: Applied Technology, Engineered Films and Aerostar.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information, which includes the accounts of Raven and its wholly-owned or controlled subsidiaries, net of intercompany balances and transactions which have been eliminated, has been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, it does not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. This financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of this financial information have been included. Financial results for the interim three-month period ended April 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending January 31, 2014. The January 31, 2013 consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Noncontrolling interests represent capital contributions, income and loss attributable to the owners of less than wholly-owned and consolidated entities. The Company owns a 75% interest in an entity consolidated under the Aerostar business segment. Given the Company's majority ownership interest, the accounts of the business venture have been consolidated with the accounts of the Company, and a noncontrolling interest has been recorded for the noncontrolling investor interests in the net assets and operations of the business venture.

On May 23, 2012, the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one split of the Company's common stock to be effected in the form of a stock dividend. The record date for the stock dividend was July 10, 2012, with the shares distributed on July 25, 2012. Upon completion of the stock split, paid in capital and retained earnings were reduced by $7,405 and $25,193, respectively, while the Company's shares issued increased from approximately 32,598 shares to 65,196 shares. With the exception of the number of shares in the Consolidated Statement of Shareholders' Equity for the three-month period ended April 30, 2012, all share and per-share amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the stock split and have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented.

As disclosed in the Company's Form 10-Q for three and six months ended ended July 31, 2012, the Company revised the amounts previously presented for cash used in investing activities and cash used in financing activities reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows by $1,867 for acquisition-related contingent liability payments during the three months ended April 30, 2012. This immaterial change increased cash used in financing activities and decreased cash used in investing activities by $1,867. The prior period amounts presented in this Form 10-Q have been adjusted to reflect this change in presentation.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013.

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)

(3) NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares and stock units outstanding. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding which includes the shares issuable upon exercise of employee stock options (net of shares assumed purchased with the option proceeds), stock units and restricted stock units outstanding. Performance share awards are included in the diluted calculation based upon what would be issued if the end of the most recent reporting period was the end of the term of the award.

Certain outstanding options and restricted stock units were excluded from the diluted net income per-share calculations because their effect would have been anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. For the three-month periods ended April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012, 600,457 and 337,160 options and restricted stock units, respectively, were excluded from the diluted net income per-share calculation.

The computation of earnings per share is presented below:

(5) ACQUISITIONS OF AND INVESTMENTS IN BUSINESSES AND TECHNOLOGIES

Ranchview

Pursuant to the Company's 2009 purchase of substantially all of the assets of Ranchview Inc. (Ranchview), a privately held Canadian corporation, Raven agreed to pay contingent consideration for future sales of Ranchview products up to a maximum of $4,000. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company paid $1,841 in cash to the previous Ranchview owner for an early buyout of the outstanding acquisition-related contingent liability. This resulted in a gain of $508 which is included in Applied Technology operating income for the period ended April 30, 2012.

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)

(6) EMPLOYEE POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

The Company provides postretirement medical and other benefits to senior executive officers and senior managers. There are no plan assets for the plans and any obligations are covered through operating cash and investments. The components of net periodic benefit cost for postretirement benefits are as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	April 30, 2013		April 30, 2012
Service cost	$	50	$	47
Interest cost	87		84
Amortization of actuarial losses	46		58
Net periodic benefit cost	$	183	$	189

Postretirement benefit cost components are reclassified in their entirety from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net periodic benefit cost. Net periodic benefit costs are reported in net income as “Cost of sales” or “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in a manner consistent with the classification of direct labor and personnel costs of the eligible employees.

(7) WARRANTIES

Accruals necessary for product warranties are estimated based on historical warranty costs and average time elapsed between purchases and returns for each division. Additional accruals are made for any significant, discrete warranty issues. Changes in the warranty accrual were as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	April 30, 2013			April 30, 2012
Beginning balance	$	1,888		$	1,699
Accrual for warranties	864			820

Ending balance	$	1,990		$	1,792

(8) FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

Raven has an uncollateralized credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. providing a line of credit of $10,500 with a maturity date of November 30, 2013, bearing interest at 1.50% above the daily one-month London Inter-bank Market Rate. Letters of credit totaling $850 have been issued under the line of credit, primarily to support self-insured workers' compensation bonding requirements. No borrowings were outstanding as of April 30, 2013, January 31, 2013 or April 30, 2012, and $9,650 was available at April 30, 2013.

(9) DIVIDENDS

Dividends paid during the three months ended April 30, 2013 were $4,361, or 12.0 cents per share. Dividends paid during the three months ended April 30, 2012 were $3,806, or 10.5 cents per share.

(10) SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Under the Amended and Restated 2010 Stock Incentive Plan effective March 23, 2012, administered by the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, two types of awards were granted during the three months ended April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012.

Stock Option Awards

On March 25, 2013, the Company granted 198,900 non-qualified stock options. On April 2, 2012, the Company granted 151,200 non-qualified stock options. Options are granted with exercise prices not less than market value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant. The stock options vest over a four-year period and expire after five years. Options contain retirement and change-in-control provisions that may accelerate the vesting period. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercises and employee terminations within this valuation model.

#10

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)

The fair values of options granted during the three months ended April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012 were estimated using the following assumptions:



	Three Months Ended
	April 30, 2013		April 30, 2012
Risk-free interest rate	0.59	%	0.86	%
Expected dividend yield	1.46	%	1.33	%
Expected volatility factor	41.39	%	49.65	%
Expected option term (in years)	3.75		3.75

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended April 30, 2013 was $9.34. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended April 30, 2012 was $10.96.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards (RSUs)

On March 25, 2013 the Company granted 25,540 time-vested RSUs to employees. On April 2, 2012 the Company granted 21,120 time-vested RSUs to employees. The fair value of a time-vested RSU is measured based upon the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The grant date fair value of the time-vested RSUs granted during the three months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012 was $32.85 and $31.66, respectively. Time-vested RSUs will vest, if at the end of the three-year period, the employee remains employed by the Company. Dividends are cumulatively earned on the time-vested RSUs over the vesting period.

The Company also granted performance-based RSUs on March 25, 2013 and April 2, 2012. The exact number of performance shares to be issued will vary from 0% to 150% of the target award, depending on the Company's actual performance over the three-year period in comparison to the target award based on return on sales (ROS), which is defined as net income divided by net sales. The performance-based RSUs will vest if, at the end of the three-year performance period, the Company has achieved certain performance goals and the employee remains employed by the Company. Dividends are cumulatively earned on performance-based RSUs over the vesting period. The number of RSUs that will vest is determined by an estimated ROS target over the three-year performance period. The estimated ROS performance used to estimate the number of restricted stock units expected to vest is evaluated at least quarterly. The number of restricted stock units issued at the vesting date will be based on actual results.

The fair value of the performance-based restricted stock units is based upon the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the grant date. The number of performance-based RSUs granted is based on 100% of the target award. During the three-month periods ended April 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company granted 50,940 and 56,222 performance-based RSUs, respectively. The grant date fair value of these performance-based RSUs was $32.85 and $31.66, respectively.

(11) SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company's reportable segments are defined by their product lines which have been grouped in these segments based on common technologies, production methods and inventories. The Company measures the performance of its segments based on their operating income excluding administrative and general expenses. Other expense and income taxes are not allocated to individual operating segments, and assets not identifiable to an individual segment are included as corporate assets. Segment information is reported consistent with the Company's management reporting structure.

Raven's reportable segments are Applied Technology Division, Engineered Films Division and Aerostar Division. The Company realigned the assets and team members of its Electronic Systems Division and deployed them into the Company's Aerostar and Applied Technology Divisions effective June 1, 2012. All prior period segment information has been adjusted to reflect this change.

(12) NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting Standards Adopted

During the three months ended April 30, 2013 the following accounting pronouncements were adopted or effective that are of significance, or potential significance, to the Company.

In February 2013 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-02, "Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI)" (ASU No. 2013-03). ASU No. 2013-03 requires that an entity present, either on the face of the statement where net income is reported or in the notes, the effect of significant reclassifications out of AOCI to net income when GAAP requires that the amount be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For amounts not required to be entirely reclassified to net income, ASU No. 2013-03 requires the cross-referencing of these amounts to other disclosures that provide detail about these amounts. This guidance, required to be applied prospectively, was effective for the Company on February 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance had no effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as it is disclosure-only in nature.

Pending Accounting Standards

At April 30, 2013 there are no accounting pronouncements pending that are of significance, or potential significance, to the Company.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following commentary on the operating results, liquidity, capital resources and financial condition of Raven Industries, Inc. (the Company or Raven) should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2013. There have been no material changes to the Company's critical accounting policies discussed therein.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Raven is a diversified technology company providing a variety of products to customers within the industrial, agricultural, energy, construction and military/aerospace markets. The Company is comprised of unique operating units, classified into three reportable segments: Applied Technology Division, Engineered Films Division and Aerostar Division. While each segment has distinct characteristics, the products and technologies are largely extensions of durable competitive advantages rooted in the original research balloon business.

Effective June 1, 2012, the Company realigned the assets and team members of its Electronic Systems Division and deployed them into the Company's Aerostar and Applied Technology Divisions. The realigned divisions will better align the Company's corporate structure with its mission and long-term growth strategies. Electronic Systems net sales of electronic manufacturing assemblies were realigned to Aerostar and the remaining proprietary products, after adjustments to intersegment eliminations, to Applied Technology. The Company retrospectively adjusted its segment information for all periods presented to reflect this change in segment reporting. These adjustments are reflected in the following discussion of segment results for comparison to prior year results.

Management uses a number of metrics to assess the Company's performance:


•	Consolidated net sales, gross margins, operating income, operating margins, net income and earnings per share


•	Cash flow from operations and shareholder returns


•	Return on sales, assets and equity


•	Segment net sales, gross profit, gross margins, operating income and operating margins

Vision and Strategy

At Raven, there is a singular purpose behind everything we do. It is: to solve great challenges. Great challenges require great solutions. Solutions driven by quality, service, innovation and peak performance set Raven apart in the development of technology that helps the world grow more food, produce more energy, protect the environment and live safely.

The Raven business model is our platform for success. Our business model is defensible, sustainable and gives us a consistent approach in the pursuit of quality financial results. This overall approach to creating value, which is employed across the three unique business segments is summarized as follows:

Cash dividends	$	(4,361	)	$	(3,806	)



^(a)	The Company's gross and operating margins may not be comparable to industry peers due to the diversity of its operations and variability in the classification of expenses across industries in which the Company operates.

Net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2013 were down 12% to $103.7 million from $117.9 million in the prior-year comparative period. Each of the Company's three divisions reported sales declines compared with a year ago, reflecting the current sluggish growth environment and the tough year-over-year comparisons to last year's record first quarter.

First quarter net income attributable to Raven declined 26% to $14.0 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, compared to fiscal 2013 first quarter net income of $19.0 million, or $0.52 per diluted share. Declining sales volume and lower Engineered Film's gross margins were the main drivers for the decrease.

Applied Technology

First quarter fiscal 2014 net sales were $51.2 million, down $2.6 million (5%) year-over-year and operating income decreased by $2.9 million, or 13%, to $19.2 million. The decrease in sales is the result of modest softness of demand in the North American aftermarket. The decrease in operating income primarily reflects the decrease in sales as well as continued investment in research and product development initiatives.

Engineered Films

For the first quarter of fiscal 2014, net sales were $34.5 million, down $6.6 million (16%) as compared to the first quarter of last year. First quarter operating income decreased 48% to $4.8 million year-over-year. Lower sales volume, and to a lesser extent, lower selling prices impacted overall net sales compared to a record quarter in the previous fiscal year. Sales declines in the energy, geomembrane and construction markets were partially offset by an increase in industrial film deliveries. The decline of gross margins reflects the lower selling prices and the impact of fixed costs and lower sales.

Aerostar

Fiscal 2014 first quarter net sales were $21.7 million compared to $25.6 million in the previous year's first quarter, a $3.9 million decrease (15%). Operating income increased by $0.4 million, or 25%, to $1.8 million from the previous year's first quarter results.

The net sales decrease was expected and due primarily to reduced demand from Aerostar's U.S. government customers and planned declines with avionics customers. Higher research balloon sales and Vista radar system sales partially offset these expected decreases. This change in product mix was the main driver of the operating income improvement for the quarter ended April 30, 2013 over the prior year's first quarter.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SEGMENT ANALYSIS

Applied Technology

Applied Technology designs, manufactures, sells and services innovative precision agriculture products and information management tools that help growers reduce costs, precisely control inputs and improve farm yields around the world.

	Three Months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	April 30, 2013			April 30, 2012			$ Change			% Change
Net sales	$	51,181		$	53,741		$	(2,560	)	(5	)%

Operating income	$	19,157		$	22,050		$	(2,893	)	(13	)%
Operating margins	37.4		%	41.0		%

The following factors were the primary drivers of the three-month year-over-year changes:

•

Market conditions. Global market fundamentals remained healthy as population and income growth in emerging economies have increased demand for food. Emerging agriculture markets abroad are at varying life cycle stages providing opportunities for Raven's precision agriculture products to meet market needs. Uncertainty in the domestic marketplace, a result of last year's drought as well as the cool spring delaying growers getting into the field, has delayed purchases and lowered demand in the U.S. and Canadian aftermarket. The Company continues to cultivate and deepen relationships with key original equipment manufacturing (OEM) partners, by customizing product solutions, tailoring the services it provides and entering long-term agreements that offer stability and competitiveness for both Raven and these partners.


•	Sales volume. Net sales decreased $2.6 million, or 5%, to $51.2 million compared to $53.7 million in the prior year period. Sales of field computers and application controls were down due to timing of demand year-over-year. These decreases were partially offset by strong OEM demand for injection products.

•

International sales decreased. For the three-month period, international sales totaled $13.7 million, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 4%, compared to $14.3 million in the prior year three-month period. International sales represent 27% of segment revenue, which is consistent with the prior year results. Products delivered to South America increased year-over-year; however, lower demand in Canada, South Africa and Eastern Europe offset this increase.

•

Gross margins. Gross margins for the three months ended April 30, 2013 were down approximately two percentage points from the three months ended April 30, 2012. The decrease reflects the lower sales volume during the current year period. Gross margins for the prior year period were also favorably impacted by one percentage point due to the early buyout of an acquisition-related contingent liability in the first quarter of fiscal 2013.


•	Operating expenses. First quarter operating expense as a percentage of net sales was 11.0%, up from 9.8% in the prior year first quarter. The increase is attributable to higher spending in research and development (R&D) for new product development.

Engineered Films

Engineered Films manufactures high performance plastic films and sheeting for industrial, energy, construction, geomembrane and agricultural applications.

#15

The following factors were the primary drivers of the three-month year-over-year changes:


•	Market conditions. Declining demand for pit liners in our energy market beginning in the second half of fiscal 2013 has persisted well below the levels experienced in the three months ended April 30, 2012. Environmental and water conservation projects have increased demand for the division's containment liners in the geomembrane market.

•

Sales volume and selling prices. The decrease in first quarter fiscal 2014 net sales compared to the prior year period was predominately driven by the decline in the energy market as sales were down $5.7 million, or 30%, compared to the prior year first quarter. Geomembrane market sales decreased slightly, year-over-year as the prior year first quarter included sales on a significant geomembrane reservoir project in Ohio. Sales volume, measured by pounds of film shipped, for the three month period was down 12% compared to the prior year and accounted for majority of the year-over-year sales decline as selling prices were roughly 5-6% lower than the prior year period.


•	Gross margin decrease. For the three-month period, margins decreased seven percentage points as the result of the decline in sales volume impacting fixed cost absorption and the decline in selling prices reducing the spread over material cost.


•	Operating expenses. First quarter operating expense as a percentage of net sales was 4.7% compared to 3.3% in the prior year quarter. Higher R&D spending for new product development drove the increase in the first quarter operating expenses.

Aerostar

Aerostar designs and manufactures surveillance technology and specialty-sewn and sealed products including tethered aerostats, high-altitude scientific balloons and airships, protective wear, parachutes, military decoys and marine navigation equipment. Aerostar also provides electronics manufacturing services (EMS) for commercial customers with a focus on high-mix, low-volume production. Assemblies manufactured by the Aerostar segment include avionics, communication, environmental controls and other products where high quality is critical.

Aerostar acquired Vista Research, Inc. (Vista) at the end of fiscal 2012. Vista's smart-sensing radar systems (SSRS) use sophisticated signal processing algorithms and are employed in a host of detection and tracking applications, including wide-area surveillance for border patrol and the military.



	Three Months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	April 30, 2013			April 30, 2012			$ Change			% Change
Net sales	$	21,715		$	25,635		$	(3,920	)	(15	)%
Gross profit	3,771			3,362			409			12	%
Gross margins	17.4		%	13.1		%
Operating expenses	$	1,965		$	1,920		$	45		2	%

Operating income	$	1,806		$	1,442		$	364		25	%
Operating margins	8.3		%	5.6		%

The following factors were the primary drivers of the year-over-year changes for the three-month period:


•	Market conditions. Certain of Aerostar's markets are subject to significant variability due to U.S. federal spending. Uncertainty and sluggish demand in these markets continued throughout fiscal 2013 and into fiscal 2014.

•

Sales volumes. Net sales for the current quarter were unable to reach last year's first quarter levels, declining 15% from $25.6 million to $21.7 million. An increase in high altitude research balloon sales and an increase in Vista net sales driven by support activities under existing contracts for Vista's SSRS were offset by planned declines in avionics sales and the effect of reduced demand by U.S. government customers.


•	Gross margin change. For the three-month period ended April 30, 2013, margins increased approximately four percentage points compared to the three-month period ended April 30, 2012 due to improved product mix and increased sales at Vista.


•	Operating expenses. First quarter operating expense spending remained flat as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2013. As a result of declining sales, this spending level was 9.0% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, an increase from 7.5% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.

Corporate Expenses (administrative expenses; other (expense), net; and income taxes)



	Three Months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	April 30, 2013			April 30, 2012
Administrative expenses	$	4,762		$	4,160
Administrative expenses as a % of sales	4.6		%	3.5		%
Other (expense), net	$	(198	)	$	(52	)
Effective tax rate	32.5		%	33.0		%

Administrative expenses increased $0.6 million, or 14%, for the quarter ended April 30, 2013 to $4.8 million as compared to the prior year first quarter due to the Company's investments in additional finance, legal, human resources and information technology personnel to support current and future growth strategies through a strengthened corporate infrastructure. This growth has been tempered over the last two quarters and the number of employees in these roles has remained relatively consistent.

Other (expense), net consists mainly of activity related to the company's equity investment, interest income and foreign currency transaction gain or losses.

OUTLOOK

At Raven, we solve great challenges. It's this purpose that keeps us grounded in markets and opportunities that have meaning, align with our values and provide profitable growth. As anticipated, we faced challenging year-over year comparisons and met economic headwinds in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. Based on these results and the factors described below, delivering year-over year sales and earnings growth in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 will be challenging.

Applied Technology saw lower demand in the U.S. aftermarket, influenced by growers mindful of last year's drought as well as being slow getting into the field this spring. Although we expect this market to slowly recover, we anticipate that sales growth internationally will outpace growth in the U.S. The second quarter of fiscal 2014 is expected to be challenging year-over-year. New product introductions, continued growth in automated steering systems and recovery in the U.S. market are expected in the second half of the year.

Engineered Films experienced energy market softness and an extremely tough year-over-year comparison for the first quarter. For the second quarter, management expects to leverage the introduction of agricultural barrier films, both from a new product and expanded distribution perspective, move aggressively with our energy market distribution partner and deliver on orders for our new multi-layer geomembrane products that help reduce the environmental effects of landfills. Over the full year, growth will require strong year-over-year performance for the next three quarters, with geomembrane film sales being a rising part of the product mix as well as growth in agricultural films for high-value crops.

Aerostar continued to be impacted by reduced demand from U.S. agency customers and planned declines with avionics customers. While Aerostar faces continued government uncertainty and sluggish demand, management is working to offset government uncertainty by expanding proprietary technology revenues including advanced radar systems, high altitude research balloons and aerostats outside of U.S. government channels. Management's focus through this fiscal year will be on executing a strong pipeline of high-quality business development pursuits and broadening Aerostar's customer base.

One of the hallmarks of Raven's business model is the ongoing investment in its business development pipeline. While we cannot control the macro environment, the strength and quality of this pipeline remains robust and encouraging; its impact on the current year results is contingent on our ability to execute. We believe that reaching last year's earnings level will also be challenging, but it is still possible. We will execute the Raven business model, exercise fiscal prudence and stay true to our purpose of solving great challenges. In doing so, we'll optimize fiscal 2014 performance while ensuring the soundness of our business and preparing for future growth.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's balance sheet continues to reflect significant liquidity and a strong capital base. Management focuses on the current cash balance and operating cash flows in considering liquidity, as operating cash flows have historically been Raven's primary source of liquidity. Management expects that current cash, combined with the generation of positive operating cash flows, will be sufficient to fund the Company's normal operating, investing and financing activities. Sufficient borrowing capacity also exists if necessary for a large acquisition or major business expansion.

#17

Raven's cash needs are seasonal, with working capital demands strongest in the first quarter. As a result, the discussion of trends in operating cash flows focuses on the primary drivers of year-over-year variability in working capital.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $51.1 million at April 30, 2013, an increase of $1.7 million from $49.4 million at January 31, 2013. The comparable balance one year earlier was $43.5 million. Increases in capital expenditures were offset by cash flows from operations.

Raven has an uncollateralized credit agreement that provides a $10.5 million line of credit and expires November 30, 2013. There is no outstanding balance under the line of credit at April 30, 2013. The line of credit is reduced by outstanding letters of credit totaling $0.9 million as of April 30, 2013.

Operating Activities

Operating cash flows result primarily from cash received from customers, which is offset by cash payments for inventories, services, employee compensation and income taxes. Management evaluates working capital levels through the computation of average days sales outstanding and inventory turnover. Average days sales outstanding is a measure of the Company's efficiency in enforcing its credit policy. The inventory turnover ratio is a metric used to evaluate the effectiveness of inventory management, with further consideration given to balancing the disadvantages of excess inventory with the risk of delayed customer deliveries.

Cash provided by operating activities was $14.9 million for the first three months of fiscal 2014 compared with $28.2 million in the first three months of fiscal 2013. The decrease in operating cash flows is the result of lower company earnings, cash consumed by accounts receivable and inventory account balances, and less cash generated by the change in income taxes payable.

Changes in inventory and accounts receivable consumed $5.8 million of cash in the first three months of fiscal 2014 compared to generating $2.2 million one year ago. The Company's inventory turnover rate increased slightly from the prior year despite the decrease in inventory levels (trailing 12-month inventory turn of 5.3X in fiscal 2014 versus 5.2X in fiscal 2013). Cash collections continue to be efficient despite the increase in trailing 12 months days sales outstanding of 50 days at April 30, 2013 compared to 47 days at April 30, 2012.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities totaled $8.4 million in the first three months of fiscal 2014 compared to $5.0 million in the first three months of fiscal 2013. Year-to-date capital spending consisted primarily of expenditures to expand Engineered Films' manufacturing capacity and ongoing renovation of the Company's headquarters.

Management anticipates fiscal 2014 capital spending in the $25 - $30 million range. In addition, management will evaluate strategic acquisitions that result in expanded capabilities and solidify competitive advantages.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $4.7 million for the three months ended April 30, 2013 compared to $5.6 million one year ago. Dividends of $4.4 million, or 12.0 cents per share, were paid during the current year compared to $3.8 million, or 10.5 cents per share, in the prior year. During the three months ended April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012, the Company made payments of $0.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively, on acquisition-related contingent liabilities.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

There have been no material changes since the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

was effective for the Company on February 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance had no effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as it is disclosure-only in nature.

Pending Accounting Standards

At April 30, 2013 there are no accounting pronouncements pending that are of significance, or potential significance, to the Company.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding the expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company intends that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that these assumptions are correct or that these expectations will be achieved. Assumptions involve important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect results in the future. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those relating to weather conditions and commodity prices, which could affect sales and profitability in some of the Company’s primary markets, such as agriculture, construction, and oil and gas well drilling; or changes in competition, raw material availability, technology or relationships with the Company’s largest customers—any of which could adversely affect any of the Company’s product lines—as well as other risks described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013 under Item 1A. This list is not exhaustive, and the Company does not have an obligation to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date these statements are made.



ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The exposure to market risks pertains mainly to changes in interest rates on cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company has no debt outstanding as of April 30, 2013. The Company does not expect operating results or cash flows to be significantly affected by changes in interest rates. Additionally, the Company does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. However, the Company does utilize derivative financial instruments to manage the economic impact of fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates on those transactions that are denominated in currency other than its functional currency, which is the U.S. dollar. The use of these financial instruments had no material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company's subsidiaries that operate outside the United States use their local currency as the functional currency. The functional currency is translated into U.S. dollars for balance sheet accounts using the period-end exchange rates and average exchange rates for the statement of income. Adjustments resulting from financial statement translations are included as cumulative translation adjustments in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders' equity. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are recognized in the period incurred and are included in "Other (expense), net" in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Foreign currency fluctuations had no material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.



ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of April 30, 2013, the end of the period covered by this report, management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of such date.
