ATTACHMENT TO PART IV-ITEM (3) OF FORM 12B-25 Halifax Corporation WITH RESPECT TO ITS FORM 10-K FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 The Registrant estimates that its results of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, as reflected in its consolidated statements of operations to be included in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, will reflect the following changes: For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, the registrant expects to report that it incurred an operating loss of approximately $1,541,000 compared to operating income of approximately $1,054,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. The loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 was primarily a result of costs associated with the start-up of a new, long-term, enterprise maintenance contract and certain unanticipated service delivery costs which exceeded the estimates the registrant utilized in pricing this contract, increases in reserves for inventory obsolescence and the abandonment of certain office space. In addition, as a result of the foregoing, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, the Registrant expects to report that it incurred a net loss of approximately $1,411,000 compared to a net income of $4,228,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. Also, as a result of the foregoing, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, the Registrant expects to report a loss per common share on a fully diluted basis of approximately $.46 compared to earnings per common share on a fully diluted basis of approximately $1.53, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004.
