## INFRASTRUCTURE SEGMENT REVIEW (CONT.) 

Today, more than half of the world’s infrastructure investment is being made in emerging nations with a rapidly growing number of vehicles and under- developed infrastructure. 

## INFRASTRUCTURE PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT 

In fi scal 2014 we launched an innovative crash cushion called the TAU Tube. It addresses a pressing market need for a crash cushion to be used in tunnels, where many competitive crash cushions release toxic fumes during fi res, presenting signi fi cant risk to motorists and fi rst responders. The construction of the TAU Tube substantially limits toxic fume off-gassing and meets stringent European requirements for this application. 

## INFRASTRUCTURE MARKET OUTLOOK 

In the near term, we expect to build on the success of fi scal 2014 with further improvement including $12.7 million of revenue from installation of The Road Zipper System on the Golden Gate Bridge, culminating from an order received during fi scal 2014. 

A federal highway bill signed in August of 2014 only provided $10.8 billion in temporary funding for a 10-month period, creating future funding uncertainty for road safety product revenues. In spite of this uncertainty, we believe we can continue to capitalize on recent progress with plans for market share increases in key product categories, margin improvements through manufacturing ef fi ciencies, and expense management. 

For the long term, population growth and essential transportation needs will continue to fuel expansion in demand for our infrastructure products.
