NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2008
Note 1 Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions for Form 10Q and do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principals for com-
plete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in the com-
pany's annual report on Form 10KSB for the year ended April 30, 2008 with the
SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of nor-
mal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have
been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily in-
dicative of the results for any other quarter or for the full year.
Note 2 Marketable Securities
The Company has investments in publicly traded equity securities as well
as certain state and municipal debt securities. These securities are class-
ified as available-for-sale securities, and are reported at fair value.
Available -for-sale investments in debt securities mature between December
2008 and August 2031. The Company uses the average cost method to determine
the cost of securities sold and the amount reclassified out of accumulated
other comprehensive income into earnings. Unrealized gains and losses are
excluded from earnings and reported separately as a component of stock-
holder's equity. Dividend and interest income are accrued as earned.
As of October 31, 2008, investments available-for-sale consisted of the
following:

Municipal bonds $ 8,464,000 $ 11,000 $ (438,000) $ 8,037,000

------------ ------------ ------------ ------------
Total $17,895,000 $ 140,000 $(2,443,000) $15,592,000
In accordance with SFAS 115, the Company evaluates all marketable securities
for other-than temporary declines in fair value, which are defined as when
the cost basis exceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Com-
pany also evaluates the nature of the investment, cause of impairment and
number of investments that are in an unrealized position. When an other-
than-temporary decline is identified, the Company will decrease the cost of
the marketable security to the new fair value and recognize a real loss. The
investments are periodically evaluated to determine if impairment changes are
required. As a result of this standard, management recorded impairment
losses of $302,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 2008 and $405,000 for
the six months ended October 31, 2008. As for the corresponding periods last
year, $2,000 worth of impairment loss was recorded for the quarter, while
$7,000 of loss was recorded for the six months ended October 31, 2008.
The following table shows the investments with unrealized losses that are not
deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment
category and length of time that individual securities have been in a con-
tinuous unrealized loss position, at October 31, 2008.

Municipal Bonds
The unrealized losses on the Company's investments in municipal bonds were
caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of these invest-
ments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than
the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company has the ability to
hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity,
the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily
impaired at October 31, 2008.
Federal Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities
The unrealized losses on the Company's investment in federal agency mortgage-
backed securities were caused by interest rate increases. The Company pur-
chased these investments at a discount relative to their face amount, and the
contractual cash flows of these investments are guaranteed by an agency of
the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would
not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the Company's in-
vestment. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in
interest rates and not credit quality and because the Company has the ability
to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be ma-
turity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-
temporarily impaired at October 31, 2008.
Corporate Bonds
The Company's unrealized loss on investments in corporate bonds relates to
several bonds. The contractual term of these investments do not permit the
issuer to settle the security at a price less than the amortized cost of the
investment. Because the Company has the ability to hold these investments
until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not
consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at Oct-
ober 31, 2008.
Marketable Equity Securities
The Company's investments in marketable equity securities consist of a wide
variety of companies. Investments in these companies include growth, growth
income, and foreign investment objectives. Management has evaluated the in-
dividual holdings, and because of the recent decline in the stock market,
does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at
October 31, 2008.
Note 3 Inventories
At October 31, 2008, inventories consisted of the following:
Raw Materials $ 2,014,000

Note 6 Retirement Benefit Plan
On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the George Risk Industries, Inc.

savings plan designed to provide retirement income to eligible employees of
the corporation. The Plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k)

the Company of approximately $4,000 and $3,000 were paid during each quarter
ending October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Likewise, the Company paid
matching contributions of approximately $6,000 and $7,000 during each six-
month period ending October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. There were no
discretionary contributions paid during either the quarters or six-month
periods ending October 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached
condensed consolidated financial statements, and with the George Risk
Industries' audited financial statements and discussion for the fiscal year
ended April 30, 2008.
Liquidity and capital resources
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Operating
---------
Net cash decreased $696,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2008, while,
for the same period last year, net cash decreased $314,000. Accounts re-
ceivable decreased $59,000 for the current six months and decreased $194,000
for the same period last year. At October 31, 2008, 80.25% of the receiv-
ables were considered current (less than 45 days) and 1.65% of the total were
over 90 days past due. Inventory decreased $54,000 for the current six
months, while it decreased $48,000 for the same period last year. The main
reasons for the increase in cash expenditures towards inventory is that the
actual cost of raw materials is more than it was for the same period last
year. The wire that we purchase for the leads on our security switches is
made with copper. The raw plastic we purchase to make our molded casings has
also risen substantially. Changes in prepaid expenses in regards to cash
flow decreased by $9,000 and $8,000 for the six-month periods ending Oct-
ober 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Cash towards income tax overpayment
increased $248,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2008 and it increased
$240,000 for the same period last year. Management paid income tax estimated
based on prior year taxable income.
For the six months ended October 31, 2008, accounts payable increased
$31,000, and decreased $29,000 decrease for the same period ended Oct-
ober 31, 2007. The current increase accounts for the increases in the cost
of raw materials. Accrued expenses decreased $109,000 for the six months
ended October 31, 2008, as it increased by $33,000 for the same period last
year. This is due to reduced sales commissions and fewer employees.
Investing
---------
As for our investment activities, $39,000 was spent during the current six-
month period and $172,000 was spent during the six months ended October 31,
2007. Additionally, the Company continues to purchase marketable securities,
which include municipal bonds and quality stocks. Cash spent on purchases of
marketable securities for the six months ended October 31, 2008 was $792,000
and $2,078,000 was spent for the corresponding period last year. We use
"money manager" accounts for most stock transactions. By doing this, the
Company gives an independent third party firm, who are experts in this field,
permission to buy and sell stocks at will. The Company pays a quarterly
service fee based on the value of the investments. Furthermore, the Company
continues to purchase back its common stock when the opportunity arises. For
the six months ended October 31, 2008, the Company purchased $2,000 worth of
treasury stock and $10,000 worth was bought back for the six months ended
October 31, 2007. We have been actively searching for stockholders that have
been "lost" over the years. The payment of dividends over the last five
fiscal years has also prompted many stockholders and/or their relatives and
descendants to sell back their stock to the Company.
Financing
---------
Cash flows from financing activities decreased by $802,000 for the six months
ending October 31, 2008. That figure consists of the payment of dividends
during the second quarter. The company declared a dividend of $0.17 per
share of common stock on September 30, 2008 and these dividends were paid by
October 31, 2008. As for the prior year numbers, net cash used in financing
activities was $829,000 for the six months ending October 31, 2007. A
dividend of $0.17 per common share was also declared and paid during the
second fiscal quarter last year.
The following is a list of ratios to help analyze George Risk Industries'
performance:
For the quarter ended

2008 2007
---------------------------
Working capital $ 24,987,000 $ 26,703,000
Current ratio 40.852 38.823
Quick ratio 32.563 33.786
Results of Operations
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Net sales were $2,470,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 2008, which is a
17.9% decrease from the corresponding quarter last year. Year-to-date net
sales were $4,914,000 at October 31, 2008, which is a 21.3% decrease from the
same period last year. The Company is tied to the housing industry and with
that industry not performing well over the last year or so, we are seeing a
decrease in our sales also. Cost of goods sold was 47.6% of net sales for
the quarter ended October 31, 2008 and 49.3% for the same quarter last year.
Year-to-date cost of goods sold percentages were 48.2% for the current six
months and 48.3% for the corresponding six months last year. Having rel-
atively the same percentage of cost of goods sold from period to period shows
that we keep our costs in line. Our goal, as always, is to have a cost of
goods sold percentage somewhere between 45% and 50%. As a whole, our cost of
materials and direct labor fluctuate in proportion to how our sales vary.
Operating expenses were 27.6% of net sales for the quarter ended October 31,
2008 as compared to 23.3 % for the corresponding quarter last year. Year-to-
date operating expenses were 28.4% of net sales for the six months ended Oct-
ober 31, 2008, while they were 23.3% for the same period last year. Keeping
operating expenses under 30% of net sales, as the company has been able to
achieve over the years, shows that management keeps a close eye on these ex-
penses from year to year. Income from operations for the quarter ended Oct-
ober 31, 2008 was at $613,000, which is a 25.5% decrease from the cor-
responding quarter last year, which had income from operations of $823,000.
Income from operations for the six months ended October 31, 2008 was at
$1,147,000, which is a 35.5% decrease from the corresponding six months last
year, which had income from operations of $1,778,000.
Other income and expenses showed losses of $209,000 and $148,000 for the
quarter and six months ended October 31, 2008, respectively. The other in-
come and expense numbers for last year also showed gains of $262,000 for the
quarter and $564,000 for the six months ending October 31, 2007. Dividend
and interest income was down 6.1% for the current quarter and was down 2% for
the current six-month period when compared to the same time periods last
year. Gain and loss on investments is where the biggest loss is in this
category. Management wrote down $302,000 for impaired investments for the
current quarter. This is compared to writes down of $2,000 for the same
quarter last year. For the year-to-date ended October 31, 2008, management
wrote down $405,000 for impaired investments and $7,000 was wrote down for
the same period last year.
Net income for the quarter ended October 31, 2008 was at $345,000, a 54.3%
decrease from the corresponding quarter last year, which showed net income of
$755,000. Net income for the six months ended October 31, 2008 was $739,000,
a 53.2% decrease from the same period last year. Net income for the six
months ended October 31, 2007 was $1,578,000. Earnings per common share for
the quarter ended October 31, 2008 were $0.07 per share and $0.14 per share
for the year-to-date numbers. EPS for the quarter and six months ended Oct-
ober 31, 2007 were $0.14 per share and $0.30 per share, respectively.
New Product Development
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sales have been strong and continue to increase on our HVAC Kits designed to
protect air conditioning coils. One of our large distributors is doing a
large customer promotion pairing the HVAC Kit with a complimentary product
from another manufacturer.
Our industrial track mount overhead switch is now in production, and all
seems to be going well with this new product. We expect sales to increase
considerably once the spring construction season starts.
Engineering continues to develop our wireless line. This includes pool
alarms, security sensors, and environmental sensors. A new, lower cost
hold-up switch and basement window bar is now being developed. Discontinued
components are the reason for having to develop alternatives to these two
products. We are also expanding our line of water sensors, including the
Pump Gard and several custom products.
While our competition continues to only carry the standard types of security
switches, we are increasingly seeing order for custom-built products. Our
competitors are discontinuing specialty products or are placing ordering
stipulations that distributors are not willing to meet. This is keeping the
GRI name on the forefront of our customer's minds and increases the calls
coming into our factory.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles". This Statement identifies the sources of
accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be
used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities
that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting prin-
ciples (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). The statement will
become effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of
Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
Other Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are no known seasonal trends with any of our products, since we sell to
distributors and OEM manufacturers. The products are tied to the housing
industry and will fluctuate with building trends.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
(a) Information required by Item 307
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating
the effectiveness of the Company's "disclosure controls and procedures" (as
defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(e)
or 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report,
have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective
based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by para-
graph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15.
(b) Information required by Item 308
This disclosure is not yet required.
Item 3A(T). Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures:
-------------------------------------------------
Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as de-
fined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of Oct-
ober 31, 2008, our president and chief executive officer and our chief
financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
are effective such that information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and (ii) accumulated and communi-
cated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief
financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding dis-
closure. A control system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that
the objectives of the control systems are met, and no evaluation of controls
can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting:
------------------------------------------------------
There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that
occurred during the period covered by this report, that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls
over financial reporting.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate in-
ternal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules
13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of fi-
nancial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Be-
cause of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those
systems determined to be effective can provide no reasonable assurance of
achieving their control objectives. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may be-
come inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal
accounting officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our in-
ternal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on its evaluation, our man-
agement concluded that as of October 31, 2008 our internal control over
financial reporting is effective.
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Corpor-
ation's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over
financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by
the Corporation's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary
rules of the SEC that permit the Corporation to provide only the management's
report in this quarterly report.
