Letter to Stockholders

2017  was, by any measure, a record year.  

Record sales, record earnings,  

record operating margin, record cash flow, and  
the successful acquisition and integration of  
Teledyne e2v, our largest acquisition to date.

Specifically, sales increased 21.1 percent to $2.604 
billion. We also achieved record GAAP earnings per 
share of $6.26 despite significant non-recurring 
charges of $0.54 associated with the acquisition 
of e2v and $0.13 per share due to U.S. tax reform. 
Excluding these charges, 2017 EPS increased 
25.3 percent from last year to $6.93.

Organic revenue growth, which excludes acquisitions, 
accelerated in each quarter of 2017, and was over 
seven percent for the full year. Furthermore, every 
segment achieved organic growth, but it was our 

Digital Imaging segment, driven by Teledyne DALSA, 
which achieved outstanding results.

We are very proud of our businesses and track 
record, and we have truly matured as a company. 
Teledyne Technologies began 2018 with just over 18 
years as an independent company with a compound 
annual shareholder return of slightly over 18 percent 
for a total return of approximately 2000 percent.

Our current portfolio of businesses best represents 
the original ethos of our predecessor, Teledyne, Inc.,  
and its founder Henry Singleton. Penned in 1960, the  
name “Teledyne” means “distant force” or alternatively  
“power from afar.” Across the globe, in deep space 
and on the ocean floor, Teledyne businesses 
manufacture enabling technologies that provide 
power or derive information from distant environments.

For example, imaging sensors from Teledyne have 
detected galaxies so remote their very faint light 
has taken 13.4 billion years to travel toward Earth 
— which in turn provides astronomers the earliest 
views of the universe. Over 34 million miles from 
Earth, the Curiosity Rover has been exploring Mars 
for the past five and a half years with its engine and 
many of its eyes provided by Teledyne.

On a much smaller scale, our machine vision 
sensors automate manufacturing, finding micron-
sized defects in clear glass, flat panel displays, used 
in consumer electronics. Our highly specialized 
microelectromechanical systems (or MEMS) help 
analyze the DNA of the human genome. 

Teledyne magnetrons drive powerful X-ray 
generators in cancer radiotherapy equipment. On 
the other hand, we provide high resolution medical 
and dental image sensors which utilize the lowest 
amount of X-rays possible. Our infrared detectors 
and microwave devices assist national security, 
helping detect threats invisible to the human eye. 
Finally, we provide power to, and data acquisition 
from, systems on the ocean floor, and we send 
critical flight operations data wirelessly from 
commercial air transport aircraft.

The original Teledyne was founded to capitalize on 
early semiconductor technology and the power of 
digital information. While much has evolved in the 
semiconductor industry, Teledyne has become a 

leader in digitally processing specialized information, 
to and from, our analog world. For example, across  
the electromagnetic spectrum, our imaging detectors  
derive and distribute digital information obtained 
from X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light and 
infrared photons. Our sonars generate and receive 
acoustic signals which then, using our software, 
produce digital maps of the ocean floor and electronic  
nautical navigation charts. Our test and measurement  
systems detect and digitally analyze minute changes 
in complex waveforms within electronic circuits. 

Many of our own systems, as well as those of our 
customers, require ever-more advanced analog to 
digital or digital to analog converters, and Teledyne 
remains a leader in the highest performance 
segment of this market. In fact, in December 2017,  
Teledyne e2v’s Ka-band Digital-to-Analog Converter  
(or DAC) was announced the winner of Semiconductor  
Product of the Year — Analog at the Elektra Awards 
in London.

Looking back, 2017 was a fantastic year for Teledyne. 
While end markets were more cooperative, years of  
increased research and development helped generate  
strong organic sales growth. Furthermore, our 2017 
performance also reflected difficult cost reductions 
in prior years, and disciplined execution to remain 
lean. I want to express my sincere gratitude to our 
employees for delivering our results, our Board of 
Directors for their guidance and our stockholders for 
their continued support.

Teledyne Technologies 2017 Annual Report

Finally, we were deeply saddened upon the passing  
of Frank V. Cahouet in June 2017. Frank served as a  
Director of Teledyne for 22 years, first with Dr. Henry 
Singleton and then continuing through April 2016 
with Teledyne Technologies, including 14 years 
as Chairman of our Audit Committee. Having had 
the benefit of Frank’s advice for over two decades, 
Teledyne will miss his experience and wisdom.

Use and Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this 
annual report contains non-GAAP financial measures. We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, 
management believes that, in order to more fully understand our short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, 
investors may wish to consider the impact of certain items resulting from our acquisition of e2v and U.S. tax reform which 
have an infrequent or non-recurring impact on operations. 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 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 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.

We use the term “adjusted fully diluted earnings per share”, “adjusted earnings” and “adjusted EPS” to refer to GAAP earnings 
per share excluding items related to the e2v business acquisition and integration such as expense related to inventory fair 
value step-up amortization, transaction and integration expenses such as advisory, legal, financial and other costs, stamp 
duty, foreign currency option contract to hedge the e2v purchase price, funds-certain bank bridge facility commitment 
expense and other costs. We also adjust for any tax impact related to the above items.

Furthermore, for 2017, “adjusted fully diluted earnings per share”, “adjusted earnings” and “adjusted EPS” exclude charges 
in the fourth quarter of 2017 as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted on December 22, 2017 (“Tax Act”).

11

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

•  e2v transaction costs, including stamp duty, advisory, legal and other consulting fees and other costs— In connection 
with our e2v acquisition, we incurred legal, financial, and other advisory fees, stamp duty and other costs, which are 
part of selling, general and administrative expenses. We exclude these expenses to arrive at our non-GAAP measures 
because we believe they do not reflect the performance of our ongoing operations.

•  e2v inventory fair value step-up amortization expense — In connection with our e2v acquisition, accounting rules 
require us to adjust various balance sheet accounts, including inventory, to fair value at the time of the acquisition.  
This expense is part of costs of sales. We exclude the amortization expense relating to the step-up in fair value of our 
inventory to arrive at our non-GAAP measures as we believe it does not reflect the performance of our ongoing operations.

•  e2v funds-certain bank bridge facility commitment expense — In connection with our e2v acquisition, we entered 
into a £625.0 million bridge credit facility in December 2016 to fund the acquisition and related transaction costs, in 
order to meet the requirement under the U.K. City Code on Takeovers and Mergers that we have sufficient and certain 
resources available expense is part of interest expense. In January 2017, we amended our revolving credit agreement 
to allow us to use that facility to fund part of the consideration in lieu of the bridge credit facility. We exclude the 
expense associated with the bridge facility to arrive at our non-GAAP measures because we believe it does not reflect 
the performance of our ongoing operations.

•  Foreign currency option contract expense to hedge the e2v purchase price — In connection with our e2v acquisition, 
we entered into a foreign currency option contract in December 2016 to hedge the e2v purchase price. This expense 
is part of other expense, net. We exclude this expense to arrive at our non-GAAP measures because we believe it does 
not reflect the performance of our ongoing operations.

•  Tax Cuts and Jobs Act repatriation tax and other impacts — On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”) 
was enacted. The Tax Act significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax by, among other things, lowering corporate 
income tax rates, implementing the territorial tax system and imposing a repatriation tax on deemed repatriated earnings 
of foreign subsidiaries. As a result of the Tax Act, Teledyne incurred estimated charges in the fourth quarter of 2017 
primarily due to the repatriation tax and the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The non-GAAP financial measures described above 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 listed above 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.

Teledyne Technologies 2017 Annual Report

Forward-looking Statements
Cautionary Notice

From time to time the Company makes, and this Annual 

Report and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K 

may contain, forward-looking statements, as defined in 
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, directly 
and indirectly relating to earnings, growth opportunities, 
acquisitions and divestitures, product sales, capital  
expenditures, pension matters, stock option compensation 
expense, interest expense, taxes, exchange rate fluctuations,  
cost reductions, facility consolidation costs, severance 
expenses and strategic plans. All statements made in this 
Annual Report and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 
10-K that are not historical in nature should be considered 
forward-looking. Actual results could differ materially from 
these forward-looking statements.

Many factors could change the anticipated results, 
including: disruptions in the global economy; 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; changes in the estimated 
impact of the Tax Act; cuts to defense spending resulting 
from existing and future deficit reduction measures; 
impacts from the United Kingdom’s planned exit from 
the European Union; uncertainties related to the policies 
of the U.S. Presidential Administration; and threats to the 
security of our confidential and proprietary information, 
including cyber security threats. 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 with respect to 
hydraulic fracturing, could further negatively affect the 
company’s businesses that supply the oil and gas industry. 
Increasing fuel costs could negatively affect the markets of 
our commercial aviation businesses. In addition, financial 
market fluctuations affect the value of the company’s 
pension assets. 

Information regarding the impact of the Tax Act consists 
of preliminary estimates which are forward-looking 
statements and are subject to change, possibly materially, 
as the company completes its financial statements. 

Information regarding the impact of the Tax Act is based  
on our current calculations, as well as our current 
interpretations, assumptions and expectations relating  
to the Tax Act, which are subject to change.

Changes in the policies of U.S. and foreign governments 
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 Teledyne’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 
customers and achieve identified financial and operating 
synergies. There are additional risks associated with 
acquiring, owning and operating businesses outside of the 
United States, including those arising from U.S. and foreign 
government policy changes or actions and exchange rate 
fluctuations. 

The Company continues to take action to assure 
compliance with the internal controls, disclosure controls 
and other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 
2002. While we believe our control systems are effective, 
there are inherent limitations in all control systems, and 
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may 
not be detected. 

Additional information concerning factors that could 
cause actual results to differ materially from those 
projected in the forward-looking statements is contained 
in Teledyne Technologies’ periodic filings with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission, including its 2017 
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Forward-looking statements 
are generally accompanied by words such as “estimate”, 
“project”, “predict”, “believes” or “expect”, that convey the 
uncertainty of future events or outcomes. The Company 
assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise any 
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new 
information or otherwise.
