PART III NARRATIVE
As previously disclosed by Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (the Company) in its Form 10-Q (as filed on December 4, 2006) for the period ended October 31, 2006, KPMG LLP (KPMG), the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, advised the Company that it believes that one of its staff accountants who worked on the engagement to audit the financial statements of the Company has made an investment in the Companys common stock and that this matter raised a question as to whether KPMGs independence had been impaired. KPMG is currently in the process of assessing whether there has been an impairment of its independence.
As soon as practicable after a determination that KPMG has met its professional independence requirements and completed its review of the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company intends to file an amended Form 10-Q, in accordance with Rule 10-01(d) of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Attached at the end of this Form 12b-25 is KPMGs statement as required by Rule 12b-25(c).
