NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2015
Note 1 Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for com-
plete financial statements. It is suggested that these condensed financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's April 30, 2015 annual report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal re-
curring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been
included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative
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, cor-
porate bonds, state and municipal debt securities, real estate investment
trusts, and money markets funds. The investments in securities are classi-
fied as available-for-sale securities, and are reported at fair value.
Available-for-sale investments in debt securities mature between January 2016
and November 2048. 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 stockholders' equity.
Dividend and interest income are reported as earned.
As of October 31, 2015, investments available-for-sale consisted of the
following:

------------ ------------ ------------ ------------
Municipal bonds $ 6,535,000 $ 107,000 $ (139,000) $ 6,503,000

REITs $ 86,000 $ 1,000 $ (13,000) $ 74,000

------------ ------------ ------------ ------------
Total $23,337,000 $ 1,738,000 $ (552,000) $24,553,000
The Company evaluates all marketable securities for other-than temp-
orary declines in fair value, which are defined as when the cost basis ex-
ceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Company 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 $23,000 for
both the quarter and six months ended October 31, 2015. Likewise, as for the
corresponding periods last year, management recorded an $8,000 impairment
loss for the three and six months ended October 31, 2014.
The following table shows the investments with unrealized losses that
are not deemed to be "other-than-temporarily impaired", aggregated by invest-
ment category and length of time that individual securities have been
in a continuous unrealized loss position, at October 31, 2015.

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, 2015.
Corporate Bonds
---------------
The Company's unrealized loss on investments in corporate bonds relates to
one bond. The contractual term of this investment does not permit the issuer
to settle the security at a price less than the amortized cost of the invest-
ment. Because the Company has the ability to hold this investment until a
recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider
this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at October 31, 2015.
Marketable Equity Securities and REITs
--------------------------------------
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. The individual holdings have been
evaluated, and due to management's plan to hold onto these investments for an
extended period, the company does not consider these investments to be other-
than-temporarily impaired at October 31, 2015.

Note 6 Retirement Benefit Plan
On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the George Risk Industries, Inc.
Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is a defined contribution
savings plan designed to provide retirement income to eligible employees of
the corporation. The Plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Matching contributions by
the Company of approximately $3,000 were paid during the quarter ending
October 31, 2015 and $2,000 was paid during the corresponding quarter the
prior fiscal year. Likewise, the Company paid matching contributions of
approximately $5,000 during the six-month period ending October 31, 2015 and
$5,000 during the six-month period ending October 31, 2014. There were no
discretionary contributions paid during either the quarters or six-month
periods ending October 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Note 7 Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
(US GAAP) defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value
measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at
fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we
would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that
market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as in-
herent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.
US GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs
to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the
highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to un-
observable inputs (level 3 measurements). The levels of the fair value
hierarchy under US GAAP are described below:
Level 1 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical in-
struments traded in active markets.
Level 2 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar in-
struments in active markets, quoted prices for identical
or similar instruments in markets that are not active,
and model-based valuation techniques for which all sig-
nificant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level 3 - Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that
use significant assumptions not observable in the market.
These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates
of assumptions that market participants would use in
pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques
include use of option pricing models, discounted cash
flow models and similar techniques.
Marketable Securities
---------------------
As of October 31, 2015, our investments consisted of money markets, publicly
traded equity securities as well as certain state and municipal debt
securities. Our marketable securities are valued using third-party broker
statements. The value of the majority of securities is derived from quoted
market information. The inputs to the valuation are generally classified as
Level 1 given the active market for these securities, however, if an active
market does not exist, which is the case for municipal and corporate bonds,
the inputs are recorded at Level 2.
Fair Value Hierarchy
--------------------
The following tables set forth our assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a recurring basis and a non-recurring basis by level within the fair
value hierarchy. As required by US GAAP, assets and liabilities are
classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is
significant to the fair value measurement.

Executive Summary
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Company's performance has declined through the first and second
quarters, showing a drop in sales and the poor performance in the stock
market has generated some realized losses on investments. New challenges the
Company has endured over the six months of this fiscal year include the
burden of regulatory requirements of the Affordable Care Act and the increase
in the minimum wage requirements, as well as selection and implementation of
new hardware and software systems which will enhance productivity and
communication throughout the organization.
Results of Operations
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Net sales showed a 6.46% decrease year-to-date over the same period in
the prior year. There were only slight decreases of less than 1% in
our most popular products lines and the Company's ongoing commitment
to outstanding customer service is one reason as to why sales did not
fall further.
* Cost of goods sold remained steady throughout the six months ended
October 31, 2015 at 45.26% of sales, compared to 46.55% in the prior
year, keeping well within the target of less than 50%.
* Operating expenses were up approximately $25,000 for the period ended
October 31, 2015 as compared to the corresponding period last year.
These costs are primarily due to new product development and increased
sales advertising. The Company has been able to keep the operating
expenses at less than 30% of net sales over the last several years;
however, the effects of the Accountable Care Act and the State of
Nebraska regulatory increase in the minimum wage continue to provide
concerns regarding the ability to maintain this pattern.
* Income from operations for the six months ended October 31, 2015 was
at $1,639,000, an 8.89% decrease from the corresponding period last
year, which had income from operations of $1,799,000.
* Other income and expenses are down when comparing to the current six
month period the prior year, with only a decrease of approximately
$284,000 in the current year. The majority of activity in these
accounts consists of investment interest, dividends, and gain or loss
on sale of investments. With the recent decline in the performance of
the stock market, decisions were made to sell many holdings and take
the realized losses on the investments over the last few months.
* Overall net income for the six month period ended October 31, 2015 was
down $458,000, or 26.13%, from the same period in the prior year.
* Earnings per share for the six months ended October 31, 2015 were
$0.26 per common share and $0.35 per common share for the same period
in the prior year.
Liquidity and capital resources
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Operating
---------
* Net cash decreased $972,000 during the six months ended October 31,
2015 as compared to a decrease of $361,000 during the corresponding
period last year.
* Accounts receivable decreased $254,000 for the six months ended
October 31, 2015 compared with a $14,000 increase for the same period
last year. The current year decrease is a result of the decline in
sales and is offset with the Company's ability to collect on accounts
receivable in a timely manner.
* Inventories increased during the current and prior six month periods
showing an increase of $563,000 in the current period compared to a
$51,000 increase in the prior period. These increases are attribut-
able to past buying trends, since there had been increases in sales
prior to the most recent quarter, and some vendors' price increases.
* Prepaid expenses saw a $37,000 decrease for the current six months,
primarily due to recording the regular monthly of doing business and
no having to renew any service agreements over the last six months.
Conversely, the prior six months showed a $35,000 decrease in prepaid
expenses.
* There was an increase of $228,000 income tax overpayment for the
period ended October 31, 2015, while there was no overpayment for the
same period the prior year.
* Accounts payable shows increases for both six month periods at $24,000
and $60,000, respectively. The company strives to pay all invoices
within terms, and the variance in increases is primarily due to the
timing of receipt of products and payment of invoices.
* Accrued expenses increased $3,000 for the current six month period as
compared to a $27,000 increase for the six month period ended October
31, 2014.
Investing
---------
* As for our investment activities, the Company spent approximately
$24,000 on acquisitions of property and equipment for the current six
month period, in comparison with the corresponding six months last
year, where there was activity of $111,000. In addition, the company
has accumulated $14,000 towards assets manufactured on site for the
current six month period.
* Additionally, the Company continues to purchase marketable securities,
which include municipal bonds and quality stocks. During the six
month period ended October 31, 2015 there was quite a bit of buy/sell
activity in the investment accounts. Net cash spent on purchases of
marketable securities for the six month period ended October 31, 2015
was $376,000 compared to $377,000 spent in the prior six month period.
We continue to use "money manager" accounts for most stock trans-
actions. 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.
Financing
---------
* The Company continues to purchase back common stock when the oppor-
tunity arises. For the six month period ended October 31, 2015, the
Company purchased $4,000 worth of treasury stock, which is the same
amount spent in the corresponding six months period last year.
* The company paid out dividends of $1,553,000 during the six months
ending October 31, 2015. These dividends were paid during the second
quarter. The company declared a dividend of $0.34 per share of common
stock on September 30, 2015 and these dividends were paid by October
31, 2015. As for the prior year numbers, dividends paid was
$1,463,000 for the six months ending October 31, 2014. A dividend of
$0.32 per common share was declared and paid during the second fiscal
quarter last year.

New Product Development
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Company and its' engineering department continue to develop enhance-
ments to product lines, develop new products which complement existing prod-
ucts, and look for products that are well suited to our distribution network
and manufacturing capabilities. Items currently in the development process
include:
* Wireless contact switches, Wi-Fi to enable monitoring of sensors from
a smartphone, pool alarms and environmental sensors are in development
* Slim-line face plate for pool alarms that will also allow homeowner to
change the plate to match their decor
* Triple biased High Security Switch
* Redesign of our Current Controller that will allow us to manufacture
a 15 amp version that would automatically turn on a whole room of
lights and a 220-volt version for international markets. 12 and 24-
volt versions are also being developed in response to many requests to
turn on LED lighting.
* Redesign for the cover of the 29-Series terminal switch
* New float water sensor that will monitor water levels in livestock
tanks and sump pumps
* Fuel level monitor - With fuel theft being a major problem around the
world, we are crafting a monitor to tie into the security system to
alarm if tanks or trucks are tampered with.
Other Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition to researching and developing new products, management is
always open to the possibility of acquiring a business or product line that
would complement our existing operations. Due to the Company's strong cash
position, management believes this could be achieved without the need for
outside financing. The intent is to utilize the equipment, marketing tech-
niques and established customers to increase sales and profits.
There are no known seasonal trends with any of GRI's products, since we
sell to distributors and OEM manufacturers. Our products are tied to the
housing industry and will fluctuate with building trends.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The objective of this update is to
provide a robust framework for addressing revenue recognition issues and,
upon its effective date, replaces almost all existing revenue recognition
guidance. Amended in August 2015, this update is effective in annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and the interim periods
within that year. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update on the
Company's financial statements.
In January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.
2015-04, "Requirement that All Deferred Income Tax Assets and Liabilities Be
Presented as Non-Current in a Classified Balance Sheet". The objective of
this update is to require deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified
entirely as non-current in a classified balance sheet. This update is
effective in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and
the interim periods within that year. The Company is evaluating the impact
of this update on the Company's financial statements.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not applicable
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Information required by Item 307
Our Chief Executive Officer (also working as 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, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
are effective based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures re-
quired by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15.
(b) Information required by Item 308
This disclosure is not yet required.
Item 4A. Controls and Procedures
Quarterly Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures:
-----------------------------------------------------------
As of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer
(who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer), an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange
Act"). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under
the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the
time periods specified in the Exchange Act and SEC's rules, and that such
information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
Chief Executive, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of dis-
closure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and
the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly,
even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable
assurance of achieving their control objectives. Our Chief Executive Officer
concluded that, as of October 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and pro-
cedures were not effective.
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting:
------------------------------------------------------
The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal controls over financial reporting for the Company. Due to
limited resources, Management conducted an evaluation of internal controls
based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Com-
mission ("COSO"). The results of this evaluation determined that our in-
ternal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of October 31,
2015, due to a material weakness. A material weakness in internal control
over financial reporting is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there
is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's
annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a
timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less
severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by
those responsible for oversight of our financial reporting.
Management's assessment identified the following material weakness in inter-
nal control over financial reporting:
* The small size of our Company limits our ability to achieve the
desired level of separation of internal controls and financial re-
porting, particularly as it relates to financial reporting and de-
ferred taxes. Due to the departure of the Controller, the current CEO
and CFO roles are being fulfilled by the same individual. We do not
have an audit committee. Until such time as the Company is able to
hire a Controller, we do not believe we meet the full requirement for
separation for financial reporting purposes.
As a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial re-
porting described above, the Company's management has concluded that, as of
October 31, 2015, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was
not effective based on the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Frame-
work issued by the COSO.
To date, the Company has hired a person to fill the controller position, but
more training will be required to fulfill disclosure control and procedure
responsibilities. We will continue to follow the standards for the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) for internal control over
financial reporting to include procedures that:
* Pertain to the maintenance of records in reasonable detail accurately
that fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's
assets;
* Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that
receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and the Board of Directors; and
* Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
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 Section
404(c) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, that permits the Cor-
poration to provide only the management's report in this quarterly report.
