(“flir”), which was acquired midway through the second quarter of 2021. the second quarter of 2022 also reflected net discrete income tax benefits of $1.0 million compared with net discrete income tax expense of $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2021. the second quarter of 2022 included $51.3 million of pretax acquired intangible asset amortization expense and $0.6 million of acquisition related tax expense. excluding these charges, non-gaap net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $211.3 million ($4.43 diluted earnings per share). in the second quarter of 2021, teledyne incurred

strong in the second quarter. in fact, we achieved record quarterly orders and ended the quarter with over $3.0 billion of backlog. consolidated book to bill was 1.08x with particular strength at teledyne flir, where orders were 25% greater than sales,” said robert mehrabian, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “despite increased foreign currency headwind, organic sales growth accelerated and was 8.2% in the second quarter. free cash flow improved from the first quarter, but inventory levels remained elevated to counter supply chain risk. given the recent and significant appreciation of the u.s. dollar, ongoing supply chain constraints and inflation, we believe it is prudent to revise our reported revenue and adjusted earnings outlook modestly for the remainder of the year. nevertheless, we continue to see mid-single digit organic sales growth in the second half and full year 2022 including the impact of foreign currency translation. we remain highly confident in our balanced and resilient mix of commercial and government businesses across a broad range of geographies and end markets. finally, having reached our targeted leverage range, we are again pursuing acquisitions and are pleased to have recently completed our first bolt-on acquisition at teledyne flir.” review of operations comparisons are with the second quarter of 2021, unless noted otherwise.

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 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 stock option compensation expense, and about the continuing expected effects on teledyne of the acquisition of flir and synergies related to the transaction, anticipated capital expenditures and 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 ongoing challenges and uncertainties posed by the covid pandemic for businesses and governments around the world, including production, supply, contractual and other disruptions, such as covid related lockdowns, facility closures, furloughs and travel restrictions; the inability to achieve operating synergies with respect to the flir acquisition; 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; the inability to develop and market new competitive products; 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 u.s. gaap and related standards; operating results of flir being lower than anticipated; disruptions in the global economy; the ongoing conflict between russia and ukraine; customer and supplier bankruptcies; 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 the covid pandemic, inflation, rising interest costs, and economic conditions; impacts from the united kingdom’s exit from the european union; uncertainties related to the policies of the u.s. presidential administration; the imposition and expansion of, and responses to, trade sanctions and tariffs; the continuing review and resolution of flir’s export and tax matters; escalating economic and diplomatic tension between china and the united states; threats to the security of our confidential and proprietary information, including cybersecurity threats; and natural and man-made disasters, including those related to or intensified by climate change; 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 or other oil producing regions, and new regulations or restrictions relating to energy production, including those implemented in response to climate change, 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. 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, could result, over time, in reductions or realignment in defense or other government spending and further changes in programs in which the company participates. 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 january 2, 2022, and subsequent quarterly reports on form 10-q and current reports on form 8-k, all of which are on file with the sec and available in the “investors” section of teledyne’s website, teledyne.com, under the heading “investor information” and in other documents teledyne

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 other items. 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 comparing this performance to our peers and competitors. the company’s 2022 diluted earnings per common share 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 should compensate for these 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 costs related to the flir acquisition, such as acquired intangible asset amortization, amortization of inventory step-up, bridge loan and debt extinguishment fees, and transaction costs such as advisory, legal and other consulting fees, filing fees, employee separation costs and other costs. these non-gaap measures also exclude acquired intangible asset amortization from prior acquisitions, the remeasurement of deferred taxes related to acquired intangible assets due to changes in tax laws, and the tax benefits or costs related to the settlement or other resolution of the flir tax reserves. 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 also adjust for any post-acquisition interest on certain income tax reserves related to flir. 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 to 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 costs related to the flir acquisition, such as acquired intangible asset amortization, amortization of inventory step-up, and transaction costs such as advisory, legal and other consulting fees, filing fees, employee separation costs and other costs. these non-gaap measures also exclude acquired intangible asset amortization from prior acquisitions. 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 to prior periods. non-gaap total debt and net debt we define non-gaap total debt as the sum of 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 supplemental non-gaap information is useful to assist investors and management in analyzing the company’s liquidity. non-gaap diluted earnings per common share outlook these non-gaap measures represent our earnings per common share outlook for the second quarter 2022 and total year 2022 on a fully diluted basis, excluding acquired intangible asset amortization for all acquisitions and acquisition-related tax matters. non-gaap cash provided by operations and free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow we define adjusted cash provided by operating activities as cash provided by operating activities (a measure prescribed by gaap) adjusted for the payment of a pre-acquisition 2018 tax reassessment issued to a flir subsidiary in sweden. we define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities (a measure prescribed by gaap) less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment. adjusted free cash flow eliminates the impact of cash paid for transaction related expenses for the flir acquisition on a net of tax basis as well as the payment of a pre-acquisition 2018 tax reassessment issued to a flir subsidiary in sweden. we believe that this supplemental 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 previous 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 previous tables for the reasons set forth below with respect to that item: flir transaction and integration costs – included in our gaap presentation of cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses are expenses incurred in connection with our acquisition of flir and primarily include legal, accounting, other professional fees as well as integration-related costs such as employee separation costs and facility lease impairments. employee separation costs include required change-in-control payments, cash settlement of flir employee and director stock awards, as well as other employee severance amounts. we exclude these costs from our non-gaap measures because we believe it does not reflect our ongoing financial performance. flir inventory step-up expense – the purchase accounting entries associated with our acquisition of flir require us to record inventory at its fair value, which is sometimes 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 from our non-gaap measures because it is a non-cash expense that we do not believe is indicative of our ongoing operating results. 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. bridge loan and debt extinguishment fees – included in our gaap presentation of interest and debt expense are expenses incurred in connection with the financing activities to fund the flir acquisition. we exclude these acquisition related expenses, many of which are one-time costs, from our non-gaap measures because we believe it does not reflect our ongoing financial performance. 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. also, in june 2021, the united kingdom parliament enacted legislation to increase the corporate tax rate to 25% effective april 2023. accordingly, the tax rate changes required us to remeasure our deferred taxes related to acquired intangible assets. we exclude these impacts from our non-gaap measures because we believe it does not reflect our ongoing financial performance. appendix a the following tables are
