Comment and Outlook

Frank Laukien, President and CEO of Bruker Corporation, commented: “Our emphasis on product innovation, organic growth, disciplined acquisitions and RoIC has enabled us to deliver 20% currency-adjusted revenue growth, and 9% organic revenue growth in 2011.  Even with significant investment in our new CAM division, our BSI segment adjusted EPS increased 12% in 2011, while excluding our CAM investments, BSI adjusted EPS would have increased 23% year-over-year.

He continued: “I am pleased that despite two sizeable acquisitions in 2010, our balance sheet remained solid, with an intangible asset ratio at an industry-leading low level of 14%, and our debt leverage ratio at a conservative 1.2x as of December 31, 2011.  Moreover, our BSI segment achieved RoIC of 22% in fiscal 2011, or 25% excluding our CAM investments.  We believe that our present investments in our new CAM division and our BEST segment will strongly contribute to RoIC and shareholder value in the future.  Our CAM division intends to reach break-even in 2013, and $250 million revenue and 18% adjusted operating margin by 2016.

Dr. Laukien concluded: “In the fourth quarter of 2011, our bookings were again excellent, and backlog increased further.  With strong momentum, record backlog, and good geographic and end market diversification, we expect to generate significant further improvements in our financial performance in 2012 and beyond.  Bruker is very well positioned to capitalize on strong demand tailwinds from a number of important secular trends, including accelerating shifts to post-genomic research and epigenetics, functional and imaging proteomics, structural biology, biologic drugs, a paradigm shift in clinical microbiology, protein and metabolite molecular diagnostics, fast and quantitative microscopy, 450 mm semiconductor FABs, shrinking semicon and nanotech feature sizes, and further adoption of superconductivity-enabled products in research, healthcare and energy/grid applications.”

Financial Goals for 2012

For 2012, Bruker will not exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expenses in adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS.  Comparisons will be provided to pro forma 2011 numbers which will also not exclude these non-cash expenses.

Bruker’s financial goals for the full year 2012 are:

·              Currency-adjusted revenue growth of 7-10%, to revenue of $1.76-$1.81 billion

·              BSI adjusted operating income of $230-$240 million, an increase of 15-18%

·              BSI adjusted operating margin improvement of 120-140 basis points

·              BSI adjusted EPS of $0.94-$0.98, compared to pro forma 2011 BSI adjusted EPS of $0.87 (includes $0.04 of non-cash stock-based compensation expense in both 2011 and 2012)

·              BSI 0.45x working-capital-to-revenue ratio, compared to 0.47x in 2011

·              BSI RoIC of 23%-25%

·              Operating cash flow of $130-$160 million, and free cash flow of $80-$120 million

For the first quarter of 2012, Bruker expects total revenue of $380-$390 million, and BSI segment adjusted EPS of $0.11-$0.13, including CAM.  Bruker’s medium-term financial goals for the year 2014 include total revenue greater than $2 billion, and BSI segment adjusted operating margin of 18%, excluding the CAM division, but now including non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EPS, adjusted operating income, and adjusted net income and adjusted operating margin, which exclude acquisition-related and restructuring and other charges. We exclude the above items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods. We believe that the use of non-GAAP measures helps investors to gain a better understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the company’s performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts.

For example:

We exclude certain acquisition-related charges or credits and associated tax effects, including charges for the sale of inventories revalued at the date of acquisition, significant transaction costs such as legal fees and credits associated with bargain purchases. We exclude these costs because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs.

We exclude charges and tax effects associated with restructuring and business divestiture activities, such as reducing overhead and consolidating facilities. We believe that the costs related to these restructuring and business divestiture activities are not indicative of our normal operating costs.

We exclude the expense and tax effects associated with the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because a significant portion of the purchase price for

acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have lives of 5 to 20 years. Exclusion of these non-cash amortization expenses allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses.

Bruker’s management uses these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the company’s core operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our competitors.  Such measures are also used by management in their financial and operating decision-making and for compensation purposes.

The non-GAAP financial measures of Bruker’s results of operations included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for Bruker’s results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP.  Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the accompanying tables.
