The fourth quarter of 2025 included $54.9 million of pretax acquired intangible asset amortization expense, $0.8 million of pretax transaction and integration costs, $0.2 million of pretax inventory step-up expense, and $20.8 million of income tax benefits from FLIR acquisition-related tax matters. Excluding those items, non-GAAP net income attributable to Teledyne for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $297.5 million ($6.30 diluted earnings per share). The fourth quarter of 2024 included $49.7 million of pretax acquired intangible asset amortization expense, $52.5 million of pre-tax non-cash trademark impairments, $1.5 million of pretax transaction and integration costs, and $16.6 million of income tax benefits from FLIR acquisition-related tax matters.

"We concluded 2025 with the best quarterly orders, sales, and non-GAAP earnings and operating margin in the company's history," said Robert Mehrabian, Executive Chairman. "Throughout Teledyne, our defense businesses remained healthy, and our shorter cycle commercial businesses continued to recover with most product families increasing either sequentially or year-over-year. In Digital Imaging, Teledyne FLIR performed very well with particular strength in unmanned and other defense surveillance systems, while within Marine Instrumentation we achieved record sales of autonomous underwater vehicles. In the fourth quarter, we were awarded our first production-rate contract in the loitering munition market, and we were selected to supply space-based infrared detectors to the majority of prime contractors on the newly awarded U.S. Space Development Agency Tranche 3 Tracking Layer program. In terms of capital deployment, 2025 was our second largest year in history. However, having generated over $1.0 billion in free cash flow for two consecutive years, we maintained a strong balance sheet with ample financial flexibility."

Review of Operations

Comparisons are with the fourth quarter of 2024, unless noted otherwise.

Digital Imaging

The Digital Imaging segment's fourth quarter 2025 net sales were $850.5 million compared with $822.2 million, an increase of 3.4%. Operating income was $162.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared with $90.8 million, an increase of 79.4%. Acquired intangible asset amortization expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $46.8 million compared with $46.1 million, and the fourth quarter of 2024 also included $1.5 million of pretax transaction and integration costs and a $49.5 million pretax non-cash trademark impairment. Excluding those items, non-GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $209.7 million compared with $187.9 million, an increase of 11.6%.

Fourth quarter of 2025 net sales increased primarily due to higher sales of infrared imaging components and subsystems, as well as surveillance and unmanned air systems for defense applications. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of detectors and cameras for health care and science applications. The fourth quarter of 2025 included $4.5 million of incremental Digital Imaging sales from recent acquisitions. The increase in operating income primarily reflected higher net sales in the fourth quarter of 2025 and lower selling, general and administrative expense due to the reduction of a contingent liability in the fourth quarter of 2025 as well as a non-cash trademark impairment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024, partially offset by higher severance costs in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Instrumentation

The Instrumentation segment's fourth quarter 2025 net sales were $382.6 million compared with $368.9 million, an increase of 3.7%. Operating income was $107.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared with $100.8 million, an increase of 6.4%. Acquired intangible asset amortization expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $3.1 million compared with $3.4 million, and in the fourth quarter of 2024, Teledyne also recorded a $3.0 million pretax non-cash trademark impairment. Excluding these items, non-GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $110.4 million compared with $107.2 million, an increase of 3.0%.

The fourth quarter of 2025 net sales increase resulted from a $6.9 million increase in sales of environmental instrumentation primarily due to stronger sales of gas detection products, a $5.6 million increase in sales of marine instrumentation primarily due to stronger offshore energy and defense markets, and a $1.2 million increase in sales of electronic test and measurement instrumentation. The increase in operating income primarily reflected the impact of higher sales as well as the non-cash trademark impairment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024 with no comparable amount recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Aerospace and Defense Electronics

The Aerospace and Defense Electronics segment's fourth quarter 2025 net sales were $275.9 million compared with $196.5 million, an increase of 40.4%. Operating income was $69.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared with $56.4 million, an increase of 23.0%. The fourth quarter of 2025 included $0.5 million of pretax transaction and integration costs, with no comparable amounts in the fourth quarter of 2024. Acquired intangible asset amortization expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $5.0 million compared with $0.2 million. Inventory step-up expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $0.2 million, with no comparable amounts in the fourth quarter of 2024. Excluding the pretax transaction and integration costs, acquired intangible asset amortization expense and inventory step-up expense, non-GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $75.1 million compared with $56.6 million, an increase of 32.7%.

Fourth quarter of 2025 net sales reflected higher sales of $72.3 million for defense electronics and higher sales of $7.1 million for aerospace electronics. The fourth quarter of 2025 included $68.5 million of incremental defense electronics sales from recent acquisitions. The increase in operating income primarily reflected the impact of higher sales, partially offset by higher transaction and integration costs as well as higher acquired intangible asset amortization expense.

Engineered Systems

The Engineered Systems segment's fourth quarter 2025 net sales were $103.3 million compared with $114.7 million, a decrease of 9.9%. Operating income was $11.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared with $9.8 million, an increase of 17.3%.

Fourth quarter of 2025 net sales reflected lower sales of $8.2 million for engineered products and lower sales of $3.2 million for energy systems. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by $2.9 million of unfavorable contract estimate changes in the fourth quarter of 2024, with no comparable amount in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Additional Financial Information

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). We supplement the reporting of our financial results determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures provide management, financial analysts and investors with additional useful information for evaluating the company's performance. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to and not as substitutes for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further details on reasons we use non-GAAP financial measures, a reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and other information related to those measures are included after our GAAP financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements Cautionary Notice

This earnings release contains forward-looking statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, with respect to management's beliefs about the financial condition, results of operations, acquisitions and product synergies, integration costs, tax matters, and businesses of Teledyne in the future. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, are based on the current expectations of the management of Teledyne and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances.

The forward-looking statements contained herein may include statements relating to sales, sales growth, stock-based compensation expense, tax rates, tariffs, governmental and economic policies, anticipated capital expenditures, stock repurchases, product developments, and other strategic options. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as "projects", "intends", "expects", "anticipates", "targets", "estimates", "will" and words of similar import that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All statements made in this communication that are not historical in nature should be considered forward-looking. By its nature, forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance or results and involves risks and uncertainties because it relates to events and depends on circumstances that will occur in the future.

Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Many factors could change anticipated results, including: the impact of policies of the U.S. Presidential Administration, especially with respect to new and higher tariffs, cutbacks in the funding of government agencies and programs, and the scaling back of environmental and green energy policies; escalating economic and diplomatic tension between China and the United States, including a "trade war" resulting in higher tariffs and restrictions on sales of goods and services; reciprocal tariffs from other countries, especially from members of the European Union; U.S. Government shutdowns, which in the past have resulted in delays in anticipated contract awards, delayed payments of invoices and delays in the issuance of export and other licenses; the inability to develop and market new competitive products; changes in relevant tax and other laws; foreign currency exchange risks; rising interest rates; risks associated with indebtedness, as well as our ability to reduce indebtedness and the timing thereof; the impact of semiconductor and other supply chain shortages; higher inflation, including wage competition and higher shipping costs; labor shortages and competition for skilled personnel; inherent uncertainties involved in the estimates and judgments used in the preparation of financial statements and the providing of estimates of financial measures, in accordance with GAAP and related standards; disruptions in the global economy; global conflicts including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; changes in demand for products sold to the defense electronics, instrumentation, digital imaging, energy exploration and production, commercial aviation, semiconductor and communications markets; funding, continuation and award of government programs; cuts to defense spending resulting from existing and future deficit reduction measures or changes to U.S. and foreign government spending and budget priorities triggered by inflation, and economic conditions; the imposition and expansion of, and responses to, trade sanctions and tariffs; the continuing review and resolution of FLIR's trade compliance and tax matters; threats to the security of our confidential and proprietary information, including cybersecurity threats; risks related to artificial intelligence; natural and man-made disasters; and our ability to achieve emission reduction targets and decrease our carbon footprint. Lower oil and natural gas prices, as well as instability in the Middle East, Latin America or other oil producing regions, and new regulations or restrictions relating to energy production could further negatively affect our businesses that supply the oil and gas industry. Weakness in the commercial aerospace industry negatively affects the markets of our commercial aviation businesses. Lower aircraft production rates at Boeing or Airbus could result in reduced sales of our commercial aerospace products. In addition, financial market fluctuations affect the value of the company's pension assets. Changes in the policies of U.S. and foreign governments, including economic sanctions or in regard to support for Ukraine, could result, over time, in reductions or realignment in defense or other government spending and further changes in programs in which the company participates.

While the company's growth strategy includes possible acquisitions, we cannot provide any assurance as to when, if or on what terms any acquisitions will be made. Acquisitions involve various inherent risks, such as, among others, our ability to integrate acquired businesses, retain key management and customers, and achieve identified financial and operating synergies. There are additional risks associated with acquiring, owning and operating businesses internationally, including those arising from U.S. and foreign government policy changes or actions and exchange rate fluctuations.

Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in Teledyne's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024, as well as subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, all of which are on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and available in the "Investors" section of Teledyne's website, teledyne.com, under the heading "Investor Information" and in other documents Teledyne files with the SEC.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. Teledyne assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by federal securities laws. As forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on such statements.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that, in order to more fully understand our short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, and to aid in comparability with our competitors, investors and financial analysts may wish to consider the impact of certain items resulting from our acquisitions which have an infrequent or non-recurring impact on operations or assist in understanding our operations pre-acquisition. Accordingly, we present non-GAAP financial measures as a supplement to the financial measures we present in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management, investors and financial analysts with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in our ongoing business by adjusting for certain expenses and benefits. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures also provide additional means of evaluating period-over-period operating performance. In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find this information helpful in analyzing our financial and operational performance and in comparing this performance to our peers and competitors. The company's diluted earnings per common share outlook guidance is also presented on a non-GAAP basis.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered superior to, or a substitute for, our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are material limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges that have an effect on our reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures by which to evaluate our financial results. Management compensates and believes that investors also should compensate for those limitations by viewing the non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings announcement may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are also used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and benchmark our results against our historical performance and the performance of our peers.

Our non-GAAP measures are as follows:

Non-GAAP income before income taxes, net income and diluted earnings per common share

These non-GAAP measures provided a supplemental view of income before taxes, net income and diluted earnings per common share. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain transaction and integration costs, inventory step-up expense, non-cash trademark impairments, acquired intangible asset amortization, remeasurement of deferred taxes related to acquired intangible assets due to changes in tax laws, and tax benefits or costs related to the settlement or other resolution of the FLIR tax reserves. We also adjust for any post-acquisition interest on certain income tax reserves related to FLIR. We adjust for any income tax impact related to these items to take into account the tax treatment and related tax rate and changes in tax rates that apply to each adjustment in the applicable tax jurisdiction. Generally, this results in the tax impact at the U.S. marginal tax rate for certain adjustments, including the majority of amortization of intangible assets, whereas the tax impact of other adjustments, including transaction expenses, depend on whether the amounts are deductible in the respective tax jurisdictions and the applicable tax rates in those jurisdictions. We believe these measures provide investors and management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results of our business by adjusting for certain expenses and benefits and present an alternative view of our performance compared with prior periods.

Non-GAAP operating income and operating margin

We define non-GAAP operating margin as non-GAAP operating income divided by net sales. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain transaction and integration costs, inventory step-up expense, non-cash trademark impairments, and acquired intangible asset amortization. We believe these measures provide investors and management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results of our business by adjusting for certain expenses and other items and present an alternative view of our performance compared with prior periods.

Non-GAAP total debt and net debt

We define non-GAAP total debt as the sum of the current portion of long-term debt and other debt and long-term debt. We define net debt as the difference between non-GAAP total debt less cash and cash equivalents. The company believes that this non-GAAP information is useful to assist investors and management in analyzing the company's liquidity.

Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share outlook

This non-GAAP measure represents our earnings per common share outlook for the fourth quarter of 2025 and total year 2025 on a fully diluted basis, excluding certain transaction and integration costs, inventory step-up expense, and acquired intangible asset amortization for all acquisitions.

Non-GAAP cash provided by operations and free cash flow

We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities (a measure prescribed by GAAP) less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment. We believe that this non-GAAP information is useful to assist management and the investment community in analyzing the company's ability to generate cash flow.

Non-GAAP line items used in tables

Management excludes the effect of each of the acquisition-related items identified below to arrive at the applicable non-GAAP financial measure referenced in the tables for the reasons set forth below with respect to that item:

Acquired intangible asset amortization – We believe that excluding the amortization of acquired intangible assets, which primarily represents purchased technology and customer relationships, as well as purchase order and contract backlog, provides an alternative way for investors to compare our operations pre-acquisition to those post-acquisition and to those of our competitors that have pursued internal growth strategies. However, we note that companies that grow internally will incur costs to develop intangible assets that will be expensed in the period incurred, which may make a direct comparison more difficult.
Non-cash trademark impairments - Included in selling, general and administrative expenses is non-cash trademark impairment expense. Similar to the amortization of acquired intangible assets, we believe excluding the non-cash trademark impairments provides an alternative way for investors to compare our operations.
Transaction and integration costs – Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses are substantial expenses (or benefits) incurred with acquisitions and primarily include legal, accounting and other professional fees as well as integration-related costs such as employee separation costs, facility consolidation costs and facility lease impairments. Employee separation costs include required change-in-control payments, cash settlement of employee and director stock awards, as well as other employee severance amounts. We exclude those costs from our non-GAAP measures because we believe they do not reflect our ongoing financial performance.
Inventory step-up expense – The purchase accounting entries associated with our acquisitions require us to record inventory at its fair value, which is sometimes substantial and greater than the previous book value of inventory. Included in our GAAP presentation, the increase in inventory value is amortized to cost of sales over the period that the related inventory is sold. We exclude inventory step-up amortization related to the Micropac and Qioptiq acquisitions from our non-GAAP measures because it is a non-cash expense that we do not believe is indicative of our ongoing operating results.
FLIR acquisition-related tax matters – Included in our tax provision is post-acquisition interest on certain income tax reserves related to FLIR, as well as the tax benefits or costs related to the settlement or other resolution of the FLIR tax reserves. We exclude those impacts from our non-GAAP measures because we believe it does not reflect our ongoing financial performance.
