Part I
Item 1 Business
(a) Business Development
George Risk Industries, Inc. (GRI or the company) was
incorporated in 1967 in Colorado. The company is presently
engaged in the design, manufacture, and sale of computer
keyboards, push button switches, burglar alarm components and
systems, pool alarms, and hydro sensors.
GRI Telemark Corporation (Telemark), formerly a majority owned
subsidiary, was incorporated in October 1983 for the purpose of
marketing security alarm products. As of April 13, 1993, Telemark
was merged into GRI and presently operates as a marketing division
of GRI.
Products, Market, and Distribution
The company designs, manufactures, and sells computer keyboards,
push-button switches, burglar alarm components and systems, pool
alarms, and hydro sensors. The security burglar alarm products
comprise approximately 87 percent of net revenues and are sold
through distributors and private board customers.
The security segment has approximately 650 customers. One of the
distributors accounts for approximately 38 percent of the
company's sales of these products. Loss of this distributor would
be significant to the company. However, this customer has
purchased from the company for many years and is expected to
continue.
The keyboard segment has approximately 300 customers. Keyboard
products are sold to original equipment manufacturers, to their
specifications and to distributors of off-the-shelf keyboards of
proprietary design.
Competition
The company has intense competition in the keyboard and burglar
alarm lines.
The burglar alarm segment has five or six major competitors. The
company competes well based on price, product design, quality,
and prompt delivery.
The competitors in the keyboard segment are larger companies with
automated production facilities. GRI has emphasized small custom
order sales that many of its competitors decline or discourage.
Raw Materials
Sources for the company's raw materials have been limited in the
past. The company has been developing other sources of supply
including offshore vendors. The company inventories a considerable
supply of raw materials, and thus has not incurred any significant
shortages.
Research and Development
The company performs research and development for its customers
from time to time. Costs in connection with such product
development have been borne by the customers. Costs associated
with the development of new products are expensed as incurred.
Employees
GRI has approximately 300 employees.
Item 2 Properties
The manufacturing and office facilities are owned by the company.
The manufacturing facilities were expanded in 1999 by 7200 square
feet. Total square footage of the plant in Kimball, Nebraska is
approximately 42,500. Additionally, the company leases 15,000
square feet for $1,335 per month with Delores Spradlin, sister
of Ken R. Risk, who is an officer and director of the company.
As of October 1, 1996, the company also began operating a
satellite plant in Gering, NE. This expansion was done in
coordination with Twin Cities Development. The company leases
approximately 3,600 square feet and currently employs 48 employees
at the Gering site.
Item 3 Legal Proceedings
The company is a defendant in a patent infringement action. The
likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or an estimate of potential
loss is not determinable. The company believes the suit is
without merit and intends to vigorously defend its' position.
Item 4 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
Not applicable.

Item 5 Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related
Stockholders' Matter

The company's Class A Common Stock is currently quoted over the
counter in the NQB "Pink Sheets" by five market makers.

No dividends were paid during fiscal years ending April 30, 1999
and 2000.
The number of holders of record of the company's Class A Common
Stock as of April 30, 2000, was approximately 1,400.
Item 6 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
GRI completed the fiscal year ending April 30, 2000, with a net
profit of 16.2 percent of sales. Net sales were at $13,485,000,
up 3.1 percent over the previous year.
The company expects sales to continue to grow for the fiscal year
ending April 30, 2001. The continued growth should be achieved
by volume increases with present customers and sales to added
customers. Also, the Company is planning to open a warehouse in
England to better serve their overseas customers.
The material and labor stayed very consistent between this year
and last year. At fiscal year end 1999 the material and labor
percentage was at 44.2% of gross sales while the same percentage
for fiscal year end 2000 was at 42%. The company continues to
buy smart and is always looking for quality materials at the
best possible price. And as far as labor goes, the company tries
to hire only the amount of production workers that they need to
finish products and they also work very hard at keeping overtime
expense down. With these good practices embedded throughout, the
company is expected to continue to achieve a gross profit margin
of 45 to 50 percent for the coming year.
Liquidity has improved each year and the ratio of cash, securities
and accounts receivables to current obligations was 27.6 and 19.1
for the fiscal years ending April 30, 2000, and April 30, 1999,
respectively. The company has marketable securities of $6,639,000
as compared to last year with $5,464,000. There was an unrealized
gain of $291,000 on securities as compared to last year's gain
of $118,000.
New product development at GRI has become very aggressive in order
to stay competitive in the industry and has continued business
growth. Several products that were in development last year and
are just being introduced to the market include a door channel
magnet, a hold-up switch, a relay module, a high security switch,
and multi-functional thermostat. New products that are presently
in development include a wireless pool alarm, raceway (wire-run
covers and associated connectors), European contact switches (to
compete in the U.K. market), and ShockGard (shock sensor that
senses sound waves).
The company moved into its new 7,200 square foot building addition
in October 1999. This building houses the tool and die and molding
departments and also allows for additional stockroom storage. This
additional stockroom storage enables the company to stock more
finished goods for the increasing demands of its customers. This
new addition was built in part with a grant received from Nebraska's
Department of Economic Development (DED). This program from the DED,
called the Community Development Block Grant, is designed to help
with the economic growth of Nebraska's rural communities. The
company is in the process of applying for another of these grants
in order to (1) expand and relocate its sales department, and (2)
build additional production facilities.
The company is continuing to search for a business that would
complement the existing business. This would require no outside
financing. The intent is to utilize the equipment, marketing
techniques and established customers to increase sales and
profits.
The company recognizes its revenue when goods are shipped and
billed to its customers. There is a $50,000 allowance that was
established by the company to account for any uncollectable
accounts.
There are no known seasonal trends with any of GRI's products,
since they sell to distributors and OEM manufacturers. The
products are tied to the housing industry and will fluctuate with
building trends.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies
Nature of Business-The company is engaged in the design,
manufacture, and marketing of computer keyboards, push-
button switches, security alarm components, pool alarms
and hydro sensors.
At April 30, 1993, the financial statements of the company,
George Risk Industries, Inc. (GRI), and its majority-owned
subsidiaries, GRI Telemark Corp. (Telemark), and R&D Labs
were consolidated. Effective April 30, 1993, the company
acquired the entire minority interest in Telemark by
issuing 22,160 shares of its Class A common stock and
merged Telemark into GRI. Telemark continues to operate as
a marketing division of GRI.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The company considers all
investments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or
market. Cost is determined using the average cost-pricing
method. The company uses standard costs to price its
manufactured inventories approximating average costs.
Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded
at cost. Depreciation is calculated based on the following
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Useful
Classification Life Cost
in Years
<S> <C> <C>
Dies, jigs, and molds 3-7 $ 454,000
Machinery and equipment 5-10 809,000
Furniture and fixtures 5-10 134,000
Leasehold improvements 2-3 1/2 125,000
Buildings 20 508,000
Automotive 3-5 317,000
Software 2-5 115,000
Land N/A 13,000
__________
Total 2,475,000
Accumulated depreciation (1,215,000)
Net $1,260,000
__________
</TABLE>
Depreciation expense of $208,000 and $166,000 were charged
to operations for the years ended April 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred,
and expenditures for major improvements are capitalized.
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the
property accounts are relieved of costs and accumulated
depreciation and any resulting gain or loss is credited or
charged to operations.
Income Taxes - The company has adopted the provisions of the
SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS No. 109
requires use of the liability method, whereby current and
deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on
tax rates and laws enacted as of the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax expense represents the change in the deferred
tax asset/liability balances.
The flow-through method of accounting for tax credits has
been adopted by the company. Such credits are reflected as
a reduction of the provision for income taxes in the year
in which they become available.
Net Income Per Common Share - Net income per common share is
based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during each fiscal year. Shares issuable upon
the conversion of preferred stock are excluded from the
calculations since their effect is insignificant.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of these financial
statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions
including the carrying value of assets. The estimates and
assumptions result in approximate rather than exact
amounts.
Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when risks and
benefits in ownership are transferred, which normally occurs
at the time of shipment of products.
Comprehensive Income - In the first quarter of fiscal 1999,
the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income".
SFAS 130 requires disclosure of total non-stockholder changes
in equity in interim periods and additional disclosures of
the components of non-stockholder changes in equity on an
annual basis. Total non-stockholder changes in equity includes
all changes in equity during a period except those resulting
from fiscal investments by and distributions to stockholders.

3. Marketable Securities
Marketable equity securities are recorded at the lower of
cost or market and are classified as available-for-sale
securities. The cost of marketable securities sold is
determined on the average cost method with realized gains
or losses being reflected in the statement of operations
and any unrealized gains and losses being reported as a
separate component of stockholders' equity until realized.
Dividend and interest income are accrued as earned.
Marketable equity securities and unrealized gains and
losses consist of the following as of April 30, 2000:
