This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Hickok Incorporated (hereinafter the "Company") to be used at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to be held on April 2, 2015, and any adjournments thereof. The time, place, and purpose of the meeting are stated in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Notice") which accompanies this Proxy Statement.

The expense of soliciting proxies, including the cost of preparing, assembling, and mailing the Notice, Proxy Statement, and Proxy will be paid by the Company. In addition to solicitation of proxies by mail, solicitation may be made personally, by telephone or other electronic means, and the Company may pay persons holding shares for others their expenses for sending proxy materials to their principals. While the Company presently intends that solicitations will be made only by Directors, officers, and employees of the Company, the Company may retain outside solicitors to assist in the solicitation of proxies. Any expenses incurred in connection with the use of outside solicitors will be paid by the Company.

Any person giving a Proxy pursuant to this solicitation may revoke it. The General Corporation Law of Ohio provides that a shareholder, without affecting any vote previously taken, may revoke a Proxy not otherwise revoked by a later appointment received by the Company or by giving notice of revocation to the Company in writing, in a verifiable communication, or in open meeting. Mere presence at the Annual Meeting will not revoke a proxy.

All validly executed Proxies received by the Board of Directors of the Company pursuant to this solicitation will be voted at the Annual Meeting, and the directions contained in such Proxies will be followed in each instance. If no directions are given, the Proxy will be voted to fix the number of Directors at nine,  for the election of all of the nominees listed in the Proxy and for the other proposals set forth in the Notice.


At the close of business on February 27, 2015, the Company had 1,163,349 shares of Class A Common Stock ("Class A Shares"), outstanding and entitled to vote. Additionally, on such date there were 474,866 shares of Class B Common Stock ("Class B Shares"), outstanding and entitled to vote. The holders of the outstanding Class A Shares as of February 27, 2015 shall be entitled to one vote for each share held. The holders of the outstanding Class B Shares as of said date shall be entitled to three votes for each share held. The General Corporation Law of Ohio generally provides that if notice in writing is given by any shareholder to the President, Vice President or the Secretary of the Company not less than 48 hours before the time fixed for holding the meeting that such shareholder desires the voting at such election to be cumulative, and an announcement of the giving of such notice is made upon the convening of the meeting by the Chairman or Secretary of the meeting or by or on behalf of the shareholder giving such notice, each shareholder shall have cumulative voting rights in the election of Directors, enabling any shareholder to give one nominee for Director as many votes as is equal to the number of Directors to be elected multiplied by the number of shares in respect of which such shareholder is voting, or to distribute his or her votes on the same principle among two or more nominees, as he or she sees fit. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on February 27, 2015 are entitled to notice of and to vote at this meeting.

At the Annual Meeting, in accordance with the General Corporation Law of Ohio, the inspectors of election appointed by the Board of Directors for the Annual Meeting will determine the presence of a quorum and will tabulate the results of shareholder voting. As provided by the General Corporation Law of Ohio and the Company's Amended Code of Regulations, holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company, present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, will constitute a quorum for such meeting. The inspectors of election intend to treat properly executed proxies marked "abstain" as "present" for these purposes. Such inspectors will also treat as "present" shares held in "street name" by brokers that are voted on at least one proposal to come before the Annual Meeting.

The vote required to approve the proposal regarding the election of Directors is included in the appropriate description below. Any additional questions and matters brought before the Annual Meeting will be, unless otherwise provided by the Amended Articles of Incorporation of the Company or the General Corporation Law of Ohio, decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding votes thereon present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. In voting for such other proposals, votes may be cast in favor, against or abstained. Abstentions will count as present for purposes of the item on which the abstention is noted and will have the effect of a vote against. Broker non-votes, however, are not counted as present for purposes of determining whether a proposal has been approved and will have no effect on the outcome of any such proposal.

The number of Directors of the Company is presently fixed at nine. The term of office of each Director expires annually. The individuals elected to the office of Director at the Annual Meeting will hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their successors have been duly elected.

On December 10, 2014, Mr. James T. Martin advised the Board of his intention to retire as a director and not stand for re-election at the annual meeting. Accordingly, the Board has determined that the number of Directors be fixed at nine, that eight of such directorships be filled by the vote of the shareholders at the Annual Meeting, and that the eight nominees hereinafter named be elected. The Board of Directors believes that the election of one less Director than the number authorized will provide the Board with flexibility during the year to appoint an additional member to the Board, when and if an individual whose services would be beneficial to the Company and its shareholders is identified. Additionally, this flexibility will enable the Company to comply with the director designating rights described below. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named herein.

Roundball, LLC and the Aplin Family Trust have been provided with certain rights to nominate individuals for election to the Company's Board under a Convertible Loan Agreement. Upon conversion of one-half (1/2) of the Closing Roundball Loan Amount into Conversion Shares, Roundball may, in its sole discretion, cause the Company to include an individual designated by Roundball as a nominee for election to the Board at all subsequent annual meetings of the Company's shareholders that occur prior to the maturity of the Roundball Note (the "Roundball Nominee Power"). Upon conversion of all of the Closing Roundball Loan Amount into Conversion Shares, Roundball may, in its sole discretion, cause the Company to include two individuals selected by Roundball as nominees for election to the Board at all subsequent annual meetings of the Company's shareholders that occur prior to the maturity of the Roundball Note (the "Dual Roundball Nominee Power"). If Roundball has exercised the Roundball Option in full and subsequently converted the Roundball Note in full into Conversion Shares prior to its maturity date, the Roundball Nominee Power and the Dual Roundball Nominee Power shall remain in effect as follows: (i) the Dual Roundball Nominee Power will continue until the earlier to occur of Roundball owning shares representing less than fifteen percent (15%) of the total voting power of the Company, or five (5) years from the closing date of the Convertible Loan Agreement; and (ii) the Roundball Nominee Power will continue until the earlier to occur of Roundball owning shares representing less than ten percent (10%) of the total voting power of the Company, or five (5) years from the closing date of the Convertible Loan Agreement. The Aplin Trust will also have the right to cause the Company to include an individual of its choice in the slate of nominees for election to the Board as long as the Aplin Trust owns shares representing ten percent (10%) or more of the total voting power of the Company, however Jennifer Elliott's continuation on the Board shall satisfy the Company's obligations under this provision. The Aplin Trust's nomination rights also do not extend past five (5) years from the closing date of the Convertible Loan Agreement.

The nominees receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected. The Proxy holders named in the accompanying Proxy or their substitutes will vote such Proxy at the Annual Meeting, or any adjournments thereof, for the election as Directors of the nominees named below unless the shareholder instructs, by marking the appropriate space on the Proxy, that authority to vote is withheld. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of Directors. If cumulative voting is in effect, the Proxy holders shall have full discretion and authority to vote for any one or more of such nominees. In the event that the voting is cumulative, the Proxy holders will vote the shares represented by each Proxy so as to maximize the number of nominees elected to the Board of Directors. However, the shares represented by each Proxy cannot be voted by the Proxy holders for a greater number of nominees than those identified in this Proxy Statement. Each of the nominees has indicated his or her willingness to serve as a Director, if elected. If any nominee should become unavailable for election (which contingency is not now contemplated or foreseen), it is intended that the shares represented by the Proxy will be voted for such substitute nominee as may be named by the Board of Directors.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's officers and Directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of the Company's Class A Shares, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, Directors, and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely upon a review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company, or written representations provided to the Company that no Form 5s were required, the Company believes that, during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, Directors, and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with except for: (i) a Form 3 filing for Brian E. Powers, which was not filed timely due to an administrative error, and (ii) a Form 4 filing for Steven H. Rosen (one transaction) and Robert E. Robotti (two transactions), each of which was not filed timely due to an administrative error.


The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. The Board of Directors has determined that James T. Martin, Chairman of the Audit Committee, satisfies the criteria adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to serve as "audit committee financial expert" and all three members of such Committee are independent directors. In addition, the Board has a Compensation Committee made up of three independent directors. The Board of Directors has determined that all remaining directors are independent except for Mr. Robert L. Bauman, who is employed by the Company. The determinations of independence described above were made using the definition for independence of directors under NASDAQ listing standards. Set forth below is the membership of the various committees with the number of meetings held during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 in parentheses:


The Audit Committee reviews the activities of the Company's independent auditors and various Company policies and practices. The Compensation Committee determines and reviews overall compensation matters affecting senior managers and officers, including the granting of stock options. The Compensation Committee cannot delegate its authority. The Compensation Committee does not have a formal charter. During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Compensation Committee met once.  Members of the Compensation Committee periodically consult with Mr. Bauman concerning his recommendations with respect to the compensation of the Company’s officers, other than himself. Neither the Company nor the Compensation Committee consulted any compensation consultants in connection with determining the amount of director or executive compensation with respect to the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.
 
The Board of Directors does not have a nominating committee or committee performing similar functions because the Company believes that, as a small business issuer traded on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board, it is not necessary to have a separate nominating committee. Rather, the full Board of Directors participates in the consideration of director nominees. The Board considers experience and other qualifications of any nominee as well as the need for diversity in the Board's expertise. At this time, the Board does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by Company shareholders because (i) historically, the Company has not received recommendations from its shareholders and (ii) the costs of establishing and maintaining procedures for the consideration of shareholder nominations would be unduly burdensome.

Qualifications for consideration as a Board nominee may vary according to the particular areas of expertise being sought as a complement to the Board's existing composition. However, in making its nominations, the Board of Directors considers, among other things, an individual's business experience, industry experience, financial background, breadth of knowledge about issues affecting the Company, availability for meetings and consultation regarding Company matters, and other particular skills and experience possessed by the potential nominee.

The Company does not currently employ an executive search firm, or pay a fee to any other third party, to locate qualified candidates for director positions.

The Board of Directors held four Board meetings and one Special Planning meeting during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. During that fiscal year, no Director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors held during the period he or she served as a Director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by committees of the Board on which he or she served, during the period that he or she served. The Company has not adopted a formal policy requiring Directors to attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Eight Directors attended the 2014 Annual Meeting.

The Board provides a process for shareholders to send communications to the Board or any of the individual Directors. Shareholders may send written communications to the Board or any Directors c/o Brian E. Powers, Hickok Incorporated, 10514 Dupont Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44108. All shareholder communications will be compiled by Mr. Brian E. Powers and submitted to the Board or the individual Director on a periodic basis.

Although we have had a separate Chairman and Chief Executive Officer since 2001, our Company’s Board of Directors does not have a current requirement that the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board be either combined or separated. The Board believes it is in the best interests of the shareholders to make this determination based on the position and direction of the Company and the composition of the Board and management team. Currently, the Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interests of the shareholders at this time for the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board to be served by separate persons. 
 

Management is responsible for day-to-day risk assessment and mitigation activities, and the Board is responsible for risk oversight, focusing on the Company’s overall risk management strategy and the steps management is taking to manage the Company’s risks. While the Board as a whole maintains the ultimate oversight responsibility for risk management, the committees of the Board can be assigned responsibility for risk management oversight of specific areas.
 
The Audit Committee reviews the Company’s portfolio of risk and discusses with management significant financial risks in conjunction with enterprise risk exposures, the Company’s policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, and the actions management has taken to limit, monitor or control financial and enterprise risk exposure.
 
The Compensation Committee oversees risk management as it relates to the Company's compensation plans, policies and practices in connection with structuring the Company's executive compensation programs.

The Company's Outside Directors Stock Option Plans (collectively the "Directors Plans") provided for the automatic grant of options to purchase shares of Class A common stock over a three year period to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees of the Company, at the fair market value on the date of grant. The options are exercisable for up to 10 years. All options granted under the Directors Plans become fully exercisable on March 8, 2015. However, upon the occurrence of a change in control, any and all options granted shall become immediately exercisable. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, there were no shares granted to each Outside Director listed in the Director Compensation Table. Under the Company's 2013 Omnibus Equity Plan, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has the authority to grant options to members of the Board of Directors. During the fiscal year ended 2014, there were no stock options granted to the Named Outside Directors of the Company under the 2013 Omnibus Equity Plan.


The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee") reports to the Board and is responsible for overseeing the Company's accounting functions, the system of internal controls established by management, and the processes to assure compliance with applicable laws, regulations and internal policies. The Audit Committee is currently comprised of three directors, each of whom meet independence requirements under the current National Association of Securities Dealers corporate governance standards. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, which is reviewed annually and is available on the Company's website at www.hickok-inc.com/about-us/financial-information.html

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Audit Committee members also discussed and reviewed the results of the independent auditors' examination of the financial statements, the quality and adequacy of the Company's internal controls, and issues relating to auditor independence. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountants required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountants' communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent accountant the independence of the accountant from the Company. Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.

The Audit Committee has again selected the firm of Meaden & Moore, Ltd. to act as the auditors for the Company for the current fiscal year. Although action by the stockholders in this matter is not required, the Audit Committee believes that it is appropriate to seek stockholders ratification of this selection in light of the critical role played by independent auditors. If our shareholders fail to vote on an advisory basis in favor of the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain Meaden & Moore, Ltd., and may retain that firm or another firm without submitting the matter to our shareholders. A representative of Meaden & Moore, Ltd. is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement, if desired. The representative also is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

The following proposal will be presented for action at the Annual Meeting by direction of the Board:

Resolved: that the selection by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the firm of Meaden & Moore, Ltd., as independent auditors for the Company for the year 2015 is hereby ratified.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR this proposal. The persons named in the accompanying Proxy or their substitutes will vote such Proxy for this proposal unless it is marked to the contrary. A favorable vote of a majority of the combined outstanding Class A and Class B Shares on the record date is required for ratification of the proposal.
