Products

Semiconductor Test

We design, manufacture, sell and support Semiconductor Test products and services on a worldwide basis.

The test systems we provide are used both for wafer level and device package testing. These chips are used in
automotive, industrial, communications, consumer, and computer and electronic game applications, among
others. Semiconductor devices span a broad range of functionality, from very simple low-cost devices such as
appliance microcontrollers, operational amplifiers or voltage regulators to complex digital signal processors,
microprocessors and high-density as well as high-speed memory devices. Semiconductor Test products and
services are sold to integrated device manufacturers (“IDMs”) that integrate the fabrication of silicon wafers into
their business, “Fabless” companies that outsource the manufacturing of silicon wafers, “Foundries” that cater to
the processing and manufacturing of silicon wafers, and outsourced semiconductor assembly and test providers
(“OSATs”) that provide test and assembly services for the final packaged devices to both Fabless companies and
IDMs. Fabless companies perform the design of integrated circuits without manufacturing capabilities, and use
Foundries for wafer manufacturing and OSATs for test and assembly. These customers obtain the overall benefit
of comprehensively testing devices and reducing the total costs associated with testing by using our
Semiconductor Test systems to:

•

improve and control product quality;

• measure and improve product performance;

•

•

reduce time to market; and

increase production yields.

Our FLEX Test Platform architecture advances our core technologies to produce test equipment that is
designed for high efficiency multi-site testing. Multi-site testing involves the simultaneous testing of many
devices and functions in parallel. Leading semiconductor manufacturers are using multi-site testing to
significantly improve their “Cost of Test” economics. The FLEX Test Platform architecture addresses customer
requirements through the following key capabilities:

1) A high efficiency multi-site architecture that eliminates tester overhead such as instrument setup,
synchronization and data movement, and signal processing;

2

2) The IG-XL™ software operating system which provides fast program development, including instant
conversion from single to multi-site test; and

3) Broad technology coverage by instruments designed to cover the range of test parameters, coupled with a
universal slot test head design that allows easy test system reconfiguration to address changing test needs.

FLEX Test Platform purchases are being made by IDMs, OSATs, Foundries and Fabless customers. The
FLEX Test Platform has become a widely used test solution at OSATs by providing versatile testers that can
handle the widest range of devices, allowing OSATs to leverage their capital investments. The broad consumer,
automotive and broadband markets have historically driven most of the device volume growth in the
semiconductor industry. These markets include smart phones, cell phones, tablets, set top boxes, HDTVs, game
controllers, computer graphics, and automotive controllers to name a few. These end use markets continue to be
drivers for the FLEX Test Platform family of products because they require a wide range of technologies and
instrument coverage. The UltraFLEX-M tester extends the FLEX Test Platform into the High Speed DRAM
testing market. The FLEX Test Platform has an installed base of more than 4,400 systems.

Our J750™ test system shares the IG-XL software environment with the family of FLEX Test Platform

systems. The J750 is designed to address the highest volume semiconductor devices, such as microcontrollers,
that are central to the functionality of almost every consumer electronics product, from small appliances to
automotive engine controllers. J750 test systems combine compact packaging, high throughput and ease of

Our products contain electronic and mechanical components that are provided by a wide range of suppliers.

Some of these components are standard products, while others are manufactured to our specifications. We can
experience occasional delays in obtaining timely delivery of certain items. While the majority of our components
are available from multiple suppliers, certain items are obtained from sole sources. We may experience a
temporary adverse impact if any of our sole source suppliers delay or cease to deliver products.

Intellectual Property and Licenses

The development of our products, both hardware and software, is based in significant part on proprietary
information, our brands and technology. We protect our rights in proprietary information, brands and technology
through various methods, such as:

•

•

•

•

•

•

patents;

copyrights;

trademarks;

trade secrets;

standards of business conduct and related business practices; and

technology license agreements, software license agreements, non-disclosure agreements, employment
agreements, and other agreements.

However, these protections might not be effective in all circumstances. Competitors might independently

develop similar technology or exploit our proprietary information and our brands in countries where we lack
enforceable intellectual property rights or where enforcement of such rights through the legal system provides an
insufficient deterrent. Also, intellectual property protections can lapse or be invalidated through appropriate legal
processes. We do not believe that any single piece of intellectual property or proprietary rights is essential to our
business.

Employees

As of December 31, 2014, we employed approximately 3,900 people. Since the inception of our business,

we have experienced no work stoppages or other labor disturbances. We have no collective bargaining contracts.

Engineering and Development Activities

The highly technical nature of our products requires a large and continuing engineering and development
effort. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, our engineering and development expenditures
were $291.6 million, $264.1 million, and $255.9 million, respectively. These expenditures accounted for
approximately 17.7%, 18.5%, and 15.4% of our consolidated revenues in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

Environmental Affairs

We are subject to various federal, state, and local government laws and regulations relating to the protection

of employee health and safety and the environment. We accrue for all known environmental liabilities when it
becomes probable that we will incur cleanup costs and those costs can reasonably be estimated. Estimated
environmental costs are not expected to materially affect the financial position or results of our operations in
future periods. However, estimates of future costs are subject to change due to protracted cleanup periods and
changing environmental remediation laws and regulations.

Item 1A: Risk Factors

Risks Associated with Our Business

The risks described below are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not

currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our
business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Our business is impacted by global and industry-specific economic cycles, which are difficult to predict, and
actions we have taken or may take to offset these cycles may not be sufficient.

Capital equipment providers in the electronics and semiconductor industries, such as Teradyne, have, in the

past, been negatively impacted by both sudden slowdowns in the global economies and recurring cyclicality
within those industries. These cycles have resulted in periods of over-supply; a trend we believe will continue to
occur for newer generations of electronic products. Our business and results of operations depend, in significant
part, upon capital expenditures of manufacturers of semiconductors and other electronics, which in turn depend
upon the current and anticipated market demand for those products. Disruption or deterioration in economic
conditions may reduce customer purchases of our products, thereby reducing our revenues and earnings. In
addition, such adverse changes in economic conditions, and resulting slowdowns in the market for our products,
may, among other things, result in increased price competition for our products, increased risk of excess and
obsolete inventories, increased risk in the collectability of our accounts receivable from our customers, potential
reserves for doubtful accounts and write-offs of accounts receivable, increased risk of restructuring charges, and

8

higher operating costs as a percentage of revenues, which, in each case and together, adversely affect our
operating results. We are unable to predict the likely duration, frequency and severity of disruptions in financial
markets, credit availability, and adverse economic conditions throughout the world, and we cannot ensure that
the level of revenues or new orders for a fiscal quarter will be sustained in subsequent quarters. We have taken
actions to address the effects of general economic variability and recurring industry cyclicality, including
implementing cost control and reduction measures. If our businesses experience further downturns, whether due
to a deterioration in global economic conditions or slowdowns in specific markets we serve, we may need to take
further cost control and reduction measures. We cannot predict whether these measures will be sufficient to
offset global or market-specific disruptions that might affect our test businesses.

In 2013, revenues from our Storage Test business unit were significantly lower than in 2012 due to lower
hard disk drive demand from lower shipments of personal computers. In response to this lower demand, during
the third quarter of 2013, we implemented a headcount reduction in the Storage Test business unit. It is possible
that we may need to take further cost control and reduction measures including reducing the number of
employees and reducing manufacturing capacity. A prolonged slowdown in hard disk drive demand may result in
increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories, asset write-offs and restructuring charges.

We are subject to intense competition.

We face significant competition throughout the world in each of our reportable segments. Some of our
competitors have substantial financial and other resources to pursue engineering, manufacturing, marketing and
distribution of their products. We also face competition from emerging Asian equipment companies and internal
development at several of our customers. Some of our competitors have introduced or announced new products
with certain performance characteristics which may be considered equal or superior to those we currently offer.
We expect our competitors to continue to improve the performance of their current products and to introduce
new products or new technologies that provide improved cost of ownership and performance characteristics. New
product introductions by competitors could cause a decline in revenues or loss of market acceptance of our
products.

The market for our products is concentrated, and our business depends, in part, on obtaining orders from a
few significant customers.

The market for our products is concentrated with a limited number of significant customers accounting for a
substantial portion of the purchases of test equipment. In each of the years 2014, 2013 and 2012, our three largest
customers in aggregate accounted for 21%, 26% and 29% of consolidated revenues, respectively. In any one
reporting period, a single customer or several customers may contribute even a larger percentage of our
consolidated revenues. In addition, our ability to increase sales will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain
orders from current or new significant customers. The opportunities to obtain orders from these customers may
be limited, which may impair our ability to grow revenues. We expect that sales of our products will continue to
be concentrated with a limited number of significant customers for the foreseeable future. The loss of a
significant customer or any reduction in orders by these customers, including reductions due to market or
competitive conditions, would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results
of operations.

Failure to realize the estimated sales value of equipment leased to our customers may adversely affect our
results of operations.

We occasionally lease equipment to our customers, typically for a term of one year. Subsequent to the one
year term, the customer can cancel the lease by providing us two months notice. In 2014, the volume of leasing
transactions and the value of equipment under leases increased significantly. The cost of the leased equipment is
recorded as an asset on our balance sheet and depreciated over an estimated useful life of approximately four
years. Realization of the leased equipment’s value depends on numerous factors including: the technological

9

obsolescence of the leased equipment; elections by customers to terminate a lease prior to scheduled termination;
the general market conditions at the time of expiration of the lease; the customer’s election to renew the lease;
and the cost of comparable new equipment. Our inability to realize the leased equipment’s value could cause a
decrease in revenues and an increase in asset write-offs which would in each case reduce our operating income.

Our operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly.

Our operating results are affected by a wide variety of factors that could materially adversely affect

revenues or profitability. The following factors could impact future operations:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

a worldwide economic slowdown or disruption in the global financial markets;

competitive pressures on selling prices;

our ability to introduce, and the market acceptance of, new products;

changes in product revenues mix resulting from changes in customer demand;

the level of orders received which can be shipped in a quarter because of the tendency of customers to
wait until late in a quarter to commit to purchase due to capital expenditure approvals and constraints
occurring at the end of a quarter, or the hope of obtaining more favorable pricing from a competitor
seeking the business;

engineering and development investments relating to new product introductions, and the expansion of
manufacturing, outsourcing and engineering operations in Asia;

provisions for excess and obsolete inventory relating to the lack of demand for and the discontinuance
of products;

impairment charges for certain long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill;

an increase in the leasing of our products to customers;

parallel or multi-site testing could lead to a decrease in the ultimate size of the market for our products;
and

the ability of our suppliers and subcontractors to meet product quality or delivery requirements needed
to satisfy customer orders for our products, especially if product demand increases.

As a result of the foregoing and other factors, we have experienced and may continue to experience material
fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or annual basis which could materially and adversely affect
our business, financial condition, operating results or stock price.

We are subject to risks of operating internationally.

A significant portion of our total revenues is derived from customers outside the United States. Our

international sales and operations are subject to significant risks and difficulties, including:

•

•

•

•

•

•

unexpected changes in legal and regulatory requirements affecting international markets;

changes in tariffs and exchange rates;

social, political and economic instability, acts of terrorism and international conflicts;

difficulties in protecting intellectual property;

difficulties in accounts receivable collection;

cultural differences in the conduct of business;

10

•

•

•

difficulties in staffing and managing international operations;

compliance with customs regulations; and

compliance with international tax laws and regulations.

In addition, an increasing portion of our products and the products we purchase from our suppliers are
sourced or manufactured in foreign locations, including China, and a large portion of the devices our products
test are fabricated and tested by foundries and subcontractors in Taiwan, China, Singapore and other parts of
Asia. As a result, we are subject to a number of economic and other risks, particularly during times of political or
financial instability in these regions. Disruption of manufacturing or supply sources in these international
locations could materially adversely impact our ability to fill customer orders and potentially result in lost
business.

If we fail to develop new technologies to adapt to our customers’ needs and if our customers fail to accept our
new products, our revenues will be adversely affected.

We believe that our technological position depends primarily on the technical competence and creative

ability of our engineers. In a rapidly evolving market, such as ours, the development or acquisition of new
technologies, commercialization of those technologies into products and market acceptance and customer
demand for those products are critical to our success. Successful product development or acquisition,
introduction and acceptance depend upon a number of factors, including:

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

new product selection;

ability to meet customer requirements;

development of competitive products by competitors;

timely and efficient completion of product design;

timely and efficient implementation of manufacturing and manufacturing processes;

timely remediation of product performance issues, if any, identified during testing;

assembly processes and product performance at customer locations;

differentiation of our products from our competitors’ products;

• management of customer expectations concerning product capabilities and product life cycles;

•

•

ability to attract and retain technical talent; and

innovation that does not infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties.

If our suppliers do not meet product or delivery requirements, we could have reduced revenues and earnings.

Certain components, including semiconductor chips, may be in short supply from time to time because of

high industry demand or the inability of some vendors to consistently meet our quality or delivery requirements.
Approximately 25% of material purchases require some custom work where having multiple suppliers would be
cost prohibitive. If any of our suppliers were to cancel contracts or commitments or fail to meet the quality or
delivery requirements needed to satisfy customer orders for our products, we could lose time-sensitive customer
orders, have significantly decreased revenues and earnings and be subject to contractual penalties, which would
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, we rely
on contract manufacturers for certain subsystems used in our products, and our ability to meet customer orders
for those products depends upon the timeliness and quality of the work performed by these subcontractors, over
whom we do not exercise any control.

11

To a certain extent, we are dependent upon the ability of our suppliers and contractors to help meet

increased product or delivery requirements. It may be difficult for certain suppliers to meet delivery requirements
in a period of rapid growth, therefore impacting our ability to meet our customers’ demands.

We rely on the financial strength of our suppliers. There can be no assurance that the loss of suppliers either
as a result of financial viability, bankruptcy or otherwise will not have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations or financial condition.

Our operations may be adversely impacted if our outsourced contract manufacturers or service providers fail
to perform.

We depend on Flextronics International Ltd. (“Flextronics”) to manufacture and test our FLEX and J750

family of products from its facility in China and on other contract manufacturers to manufacture other products.
If for any reason these contract manufacturers cannot provide us with these products in a timely fashion, or at all,
we may not be able to sell these products to our customers until we enter a similar arrangement with an
alternative contract manufacturer. If we experience a problem with our supply of products from Flextronics or
our other contract manufacturers, it may take us significant time to either manufacture the product or find an
alternate contract manufacturer, which could result in substantial expense and disruption to our business.

We have also outsourced a number of our general and administrative functions, including information

technology, to reputable service providers, many of which are in foreign countries, sometimes impacting
communication with them because of language and time differences. Their presence in foreign countries also
increases the risk they could be exposed to political risk. Additionally, there may be difficulties encountered in
coordinating the outsourced operations with existing functions and operations. If we fail in successfully
coordinating and managing the outsourced service providers, it may cause an adverse effect on our operations
which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We may not fully realize the benefits of our acquisitions or strategic alliances.

We may acquire businesses, form strategic alliances or create joint ventures with third parties that we

believe will complement or augment our existing businesses. We may not be able to realize the expected
synergies and cost savings from the integration with our existing operations of other businesses or technologies
that we may acquire. In addition, the integration process for our acquisitions may be complex, costly and time
consuming and include unanticipated issues, expenses and liabilities. We may have difficulty in developing,
manufacturing and marketing the products of a newly acquired company in a manner that enhances the
performance of our combined businesses or product lines and allows us to realize value from expected synergies.
Following an acquisition, we may not achieve the revenues or net income levels that justify the acquisition.
Acquisitions may also result in one-time charges (such as acquisition-related expenses, write-offs or restructuring
charges) or in the future, impairment of goodwill, that adversely affect our operating results. Additionally, we
may fund acquisitions of new businesses, strategic alliances or joint ventures by utilizing our cash, raising debt,
issuing shares of our common stock, or by other means.

In the fourth quarter of 2014, we performed our annual goodwill impairment test and recorded a goodwill

impairment charge of $98.9 million in our Wireless Test segment as a result of decreased projected demand
attributable to an estimated smaller future wireless test market due to reuse of wireless test equipment, price
competition and different testing techniques. Further reductions in the size of the wireless test market may occur,
which may result in additional goodwill impairment charges, increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories,
asset write-offs and restructuring charges.

We may incur significant liabilities if we fail to comply with environmental regulations.

We are subject to both domestic and international environmental regulations and statutory strict liability

relating to the use, storage, discharge, site cleanup and disposal of hazardous chemicals used in our

12

manufacturing processes. If we fail to comply with present and future regulations, or are required to perform site
remediation, we could be subject to future liabilities or cost, including penalties or the suspension of production.
Present and future regulations may also:

•

•

•

•

•

restrict our ability to expand facilities;

restrict our ability to ship certain products;

require us to modify our operations logistics;

require us to acquire costly equipment; or

require us to incur other significant costs and expenses.

Pursuant to present regulations and agreements, we are conducting groundwater and subsurface assessment

and monitoring and are implementing remediation and corrective action plans for facilities located in
Massachusetts and New Hampshire which are no longer conducting manufacturing operations. As of
December 31, 2014, we have not incurred material costs as result of the monitoring and remediation steps taken
at the Massachusetts and New Hampshire sites.

On January 27, 2003, the European Union adopted the following directives: (i) the directive on the
Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (the “RoHS
Directive”); and (ii) the directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (the “WEEE Directive”). The
WEEE Directive became effective August 13, 2005 and the RoHS Directive became effective on July 6, 2006.
Both the RoHS Directive and the WEEE Directive alter the form and manner in which electronic equipment is
imported, sold and handled in the European Union. Other jurisdictions, such as China, have followed the
European Union’s lead in enacting legislation with respect to hazardous substances and waste removal. Ensuring
compliance with the RoHS Directive, the WEEE Directive and similar legislation in other jurisdictions, and
integrating compliance activities with our suppliers and customers could result in additional costs and disruption
to operations and logistics and thus, could have a negative impact on our business, operations or financial
condition.

We currently are, and in the future may be, subject to litigation or regulatory proceedings that could have an
adverse effect on our business.

From time to time, we may be subject to litigation or other administrative, regulatory or governmental
proceedings, including tax audits and resulting claims that could require significant management time and
resources and cause us to incur expenses and, in the event of an adverse decision, pay damages or incur costs in
an amount that could have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Third parties may claim we are infringing their intellectual property and we could suffer significant litigation
costs, licensing expenses or be prevented from selling our products.

We have been sued for patent infringement in the past and receive notifications from time to time that we

may be in violation of patents held by others. An assertion of patent infringement against us, if successful, could
have a material adverse effect on our ability to sell our products or it could force us to seek a license to the
intellectual property rights of others or alter such products so that they no longer infringe the intellectual property
rights of others. A license could be very expensive to obtain or may not be available at all. Similarly, changing
our products or processes to avoid infringing the rights of others may be costly or impractical. Additionally,
patent litigation could require a significant use of management resources and involve a lengthy and expensive
defense, even if we eventually prevail. If we do not prevail, we might be forced to pay significant damages,
obtain licenses, modify our products, or stop making our products; each of which could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, operating results or cash flows.

13

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property (“IP”), we may lose a valuable asset or may incur costly
litigation to protect our rights.

We protect the technology that is incorporated in our products in several ways, including through patent,
copyright, and trade secret protection and by contractual agreement. However, even with these protections, our IP
may still be challenged, invalidated or subject to other infringement actions. While we believe that our IP has
value in the aggregate, no single element of our IP is in itself essential. If a significant portion of our IP is
invalidated or ineffective, our business could be materially adversely affected.

We may incur higher tax rates than we expect and may have exposure to additional international tax liabilities
and costs.

We are subject to paying income taxes in the United States and various other countries where we operate.

Our effective tax rate is dependent on where our earnings are generated and the tax regulations and the
interpretation and judgment of administrative tax or revenue entities in the United States and other countries. We
have pursued a global tax strategy which could adversely be affected by the mix of earnings and tax rates in the
countries where we operate, changes to tax laws or an adverse tax ruling by administrative entities. We are also
subject to tax audits in the countries where we operate. Any material assessment resulting from an audit from an
administrative tax or revenue entity could also negatively affect our financial results.

As a multinational corporation, we are subject to income taxes as well as non-income based taxes, in both
the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. In certain foreign jurisdictions, we qualify for tax incentives
and tax holidays based on our ability to meet, on a continuing basis, various tests relating to our employment
levels, research and development expenditures and other qualification requirements in a particular foreign
jurisdiction. While we intend to operate in such a manner to maintain and maximize our tax incentives, no
assurance can be given that we have so qualified or that we will so qualify for any particular year or jurisdiction.
If we fail to qualify and to remain qualified for certain foreign tax incentives and tax holidays, we may be subject
to further taxation or an increase in our effective tax rate which would adversely impact our financial results. In
Singapore, we operate under a tax holiday which is effective through December 31, 2015. The tax savings
attributable to the Singapore tax holiday for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 were
$13.2 million or $0.06 per diluted share, $4.7 million or $0.02 per diluted share and $10.9 million or $0.05 per
diluted share, respectively. We are in discussions with the Singapore Economic Development Board with respect
to extension of the tax holiday for periods after December 31, 2015. No assurances can be given that such
discussions will be successful. If we are unable to reach an agreement with the Singapore Economic
Development Board, our results of operations and financial condition for periods after December 31, 2015 will
be adversely affected.

In addition, we may incur additional costs, including headcount expenses, in order to obtain or maintain a

foreign tax incentive in a particular foreign jurisdiction.

We have significant guarantees, indemnification and customer confidentiality obligations.

From time to time, we make guarantees to customers regarding the delivery, price and performance of our
products and guarantee certain indebtedness, performance obligations or lease commitments of our subsidiary
and affiliate companies. We also have agreed to provide indemnification to our officers, directors, employees and
agents, to the extent permitted by law, arising from certain events or occurrences while the officer, director,
employee or agent, is or was serving at our request in such capacity. Additionally, we have confidentiality
obligations to certain customers and if breached would require the payment of significant penalties. If we become
liable under any of these obligations, it could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or
operating results. For additional information see Note J: “Commitments and Contingencies—Guarantees and
Indemnification Obligations” in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

14

We may discontinue or reduce our quarterly cash dividend or share repurchase program.

In January 2014, our Board of Directors initiated a quarterly dividend of $0.06 per share. In January 2015,
our Board of Directors authorized Teradyne to repurchase up to $500 million of common stock, $300 million of
which we intend to repurchase in 2015. Holders of our common stock are only entitled to receive dividends when
and if they are declared by our Board of Directors. Future cash dividends and share repurchases are subject to the
discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend, among other things, upon our earnings, capital
requirements and financial condition. While we have declared a quarterly cash dividend on our common stock
and authorized a share repurchase program, we are not required to do either and may reduce or eliminate our cash
dividend or share repurchase program in the future. The reduction or elimination of our cash dividend or our
share repurchase program could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our business may suffer if we are unable to attract and retain key employees.

Competition for employees with skills we require is intense in the high technology industry. Our success
will depend on our ability to attract and retain key technical employees. The loss of one or more key or other
employees, a decrease in our ability to attract additional qualified employees, or the delay in hiring key personnel
could each have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

New regulations related to conflict minerals may adversely affect us.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act imposes new disclosure requirements

regarding the use of “conflict” minerals mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries
in our products, whether or not these products are manufactured by third parties. This requirement could affect
the pricing, sourcing and availability of minerals used in the manufacture of components we use in our products.
In addition, there are additional costs associated with complying with the disclosure requirements, such as costs
related to determining the source of any conflict minerals used in our products. Our supply chain is complex and
we may be unable to verify the origins for all minerals used in our products. As a result, we may be unable to
certify that our products are conflict free.

Our operations, and the operations of our customers and suppliers, are subject to risks of natural catastrophic
events, widespread health epidemics, acts of war, terrorist attacks and the threat of domestic and international
terrorist attacks, any one of which could result in cancellation of orders, delays in deliveries or other business
activities, or loss of customers and could negatively affect our business and results of operations.

Our business is international in nature, with our sales, service and administrative personnel and our
customers and suppliers located in numerous countries throughout the world. Our operations, and those of our
customers and suppliers, are subject to disruption for a variety of reasons, including work stoppages, acts of war,
terrorism, health epidemics, fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, energy shortages,
telecommunication failures, tsunamis, flooding or other natural disasters. Such disruption could materially
increase our costs and expenses as well as cause delays in, among other things, shipments of products to our
customers, our ability to perform services requested by our customers, or the installation and acceptance of our
products at customer sites. Any of these conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial conditions or results of operations.

A breach of our operational or security systems could negatively affect our business and results of operations.

We rely on various information technology networks and systems, some of which are managed by third
parties, to process, transmit and store electronic information, including confidential data, and to carry out and
support a variety of business activities, including manufacturing, research and development, supply chain
management, sales and accounting. A failure in or a breach of our operational or security systems or
infrastructure, or those of our suppliers and other service providers, including as a result of cyber attacks, could
disrupt our business, result in the disclosure or misuse of proprietary or confidential information, damage our
reputation, cause losses and increase our costs.

15

We may face risks associated with shareholder activism.

Publicly traded companies have increasingly become subject to campaigns by shareholders advocating

corporate actions such as financial restructuring, increased borrowing, special dividends, stock repurchases or
divestitures. We may become subject in the future to such shareholder activity and demands. Such activities
could interfere with our ability to execute our business plans, be costly and time-consuming, disrupt our
operations, divert the attention of management or result in our initiating borrowing or increasing our share
repurchase plan or dividend, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business or stock price.

Provisions of our charter and by-laws and Massachusetts law make a takeover of Teradyne more difficult.

There are provisions in our basic corporate documents and under Massachusetts law that could discourage,
delay or prevent a change in control, even if a change in control may be regarded as beneficial to some or all of
our stockholders.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to legal proceedings, claims and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of business

such as, but not limited to, patent, employment, commercial and environmental matters. We believe that we have
meritorious defenses against all pending claims and intend to vigorously contest them. While it is not possible to

predict or determine the outcomes of any pending claims or to provide possible ranges of losses that may arise,
we believe the potential losses associated with all of these actions are unlikely to have a material adverse effect
on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We are a leading global supplier of automatic test equipment. We design, develop, manufacture and sell
automatic test systems and solutions used to test semiconductors, wireless products, hard disk drives, solid state
disks and circuit boards in the consumer electronics, wireless, automotive, industrial, computing,
communications and aerospace and defense industries. Our automatic test equipment products and services
include:

•

semiconductor test (“Semiconductor Test”) systems;

19

• wireless test (“Wireless Test”) systems; and

•

defense/aerospace (“Defense/Aerospace”) test instrumentation and systems, storage test (“Storage
Test”) systems, and circuit-board test and inspection (“Production Board Test”) systems (collectively
these products represent “System Test”).

We have a broad customer base which includes integrated device manufacturers (“IDMs”), outsourced
semiconductor assembly and test providers (“OSATs”), wafer foundries, fabless companies that design, but
contract with others for the manufacture of, integrated circuits (“ICs”), developers of wireless devices and
consumer electronics, manufacturers of circuit boards, automotive suppliers, wireless product manufacturers,
storage device manufacturers, aerospace and military contractors.

In 2014, we acquired Avionics Interface Technologies, LLC (“AIT”), a supplier of equipment for testing

state-of-the-art data communication buses. The acquisition of AIT complements our Defense/Aerospace line of
bus test instrumentation for commercial and defense avionics systems. AIT is included in our System Test
segment.

In 2013, we acquired ZTEC Instruments Inc. (“ZTEC”), a supplier of modular wireless test instruments. The
acquisition of ZTEC expands our Wireless Test segment into the design verification test of wireless components
and chipsets.

We believe our recent acquisitions have enhanced our opportunities for growth. We will continue to invest

in our business, grow market share in our markets and expand further our addressable markets while tightly
managing our costs.

The sales of our products and services are dependent, to a large degree, on customers who are subject to
cyclical trends in the demand for their products. These cyclical periods have had, and will continue to have, a
significant effect on our business since our customers often delay or accelerate purchases in reaction to changes
in their businesses and to demand fluctuations in the semiconductor and electronics industries. Historically, these
demand fluctuations have resulted in significant variations in our results of operations. The sharp swings in the
semiconductor and electronics industries in recent years have generally affected the semiconductor and
electronics test equipment and services industries more significantly than the overall capital equipment sector.

In the fourth quarter of 2014, we performed our annual goodwill impairment test and recorded a goodwill

impairment charge of $98.9 million in our Wireless Test segment as a result of decreased projected demand
attributable to an estimated smaller future wireless test market due to reuse of wireless test equipment, price
competition and different testing techniques. Further reductions in the size of the wireless test market may occur,
which may result in additional goodwill impairment charges, increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories,
asset write-offs and restructuring charges.

In 2013, revenues from our Storage Test business unit were significantly lower than in 2012 due to lower
hard disk drive demand from lower shipments of personal computers. In response to this lower demand, during
the third quarter of 2013, we implemented a headcount reduction in the Storage Test business unit. It is possible
that we may need to take further cost control and reduction measures including reducing the number of
employees and reducing manufacturing capacity. A prolonged slowdown in Storage Test demand may result in
increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories, asset write-offs and restructuring charges.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We have identified the policies discussed below as critical to understanding our business and our results of
operations and financial condition. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business
operations is discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results.

20

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenues when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, title and risk of loss have
passed, delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and
collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers
upon shipment or at delivery destination point. In circumstances where either title or risk of loss pass upon
destination, acceptance or cash payment, we defer revenue recognition until such events occur.

Our equipment has non-software and embedded software components that function together to deliver the

equipment’s essential functionality. Revenue is recognized upon shipment or at delivery destination point,
provided that customer acceptance criteria can be demonstrated prior to shipment. Certain contracts require us to
perform tests of the product to ensure that performance meets the published product specifications or customer
requested specifications, which are generally conducted prior to shipment. Where the criteria cannot be
demonstrated prior to shipment, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance has been received. We also defer
the portion of the sales price that is not due until acceptance, which represents deferred profit.

For multiple element arrangements, we allocate revenue to all deliverables based on their relative selling

prices. In such circumstances, a hierarchy is used to determine the selling price for allocating revenue to
deliverables as follows: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”), (ii) third-party
evidence of selling price (“TPE”), and (iii) best estimate of the selling price (“BESP”). For a delivered item to be
considered a separate unit, the delivered item must have value to the customer on a standalone basis and the
delivery or performance of the undelivered item must be considered probable and substantially in our control.

Our post-shipment obligations include installation, training services, one-year standard warranties, and
extended warranties. Installation does not alter the product capabilities, does not require specialized skills or
tools and can be performed by the customers or other vendors. Installation is typically provided within five days
of product shipment and is completed within one to two days thereafter. Training services are optional and do not
affect the customers’ ability to use the product. We defer revenue for the selling price of installation and training.
Extended warranties constitute warranty obligations beyond one year and we defer revenue in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-20,
“Separately Priced Extended Warranty and Product Maintenance Contracts” and ASC 605-25, “Revenue
Recognition Multiple-Element Arrangements.” Service revenue is recognized over the contractual period or as
services are performed.

Our products are generally subject to warranty and the related costs of the warranty are provided for in cost

of revenues when product revenue is recognized. We classify shipping and handling costs in cost of revenues.

We do not provide our customers with contractual rights of return for any of our products.

Retirement and Postretirement Plans

Effective January 1, 2012, we changed the method of recognizing actuarial gains and losses for our defined

benefit pension plans and postretirement benefit plan and calculating the expected return on plan assets for our
defined benefit pension plans. Historically, we recognized net actuarial gains and losses in accumulated other
comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity on our consolidated balance sheet on an annual basis and
amortized them into operating results over the average remaining years of service of the plan participants, to the
extent such gains and losses were outside of a range (“corridor”). In 2012, we elected to immediately recognize
net actuarial gains and losses and the change in the fair value of the plan assets in our operating results in the year
in which they occur or upon any interim remeasurement of the plans. In addition, we used to calculate the
expected return on plan assets using a calculated market-related value of plan assets. Effective January 1, 2012,
we elected to calculate the expected return on plan assets using the fair value of the plan assets.

We believe that this new method is preferable as it eliminates the delay in recognizing gains and losses in
our operating results and it will improve the transparency by faster recognition of the effects of economic and

21

interest rate trends on plan obligations and investments. These actuarial gains and losses are generally measured
annually as of December 31 and, accordingly, will be recorded during the fourth quarter of each year or upon any
interim remeasurement of the plans. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting
Standards Codification Topic 250, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”, all prior periods presented in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been adjusted to apply the new accounting method retrospectively.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. On a quarterly
basis, we use consistent methodologies to evaluate all inventories for net realizable value. We record a provision
for both excess and obsolete inventory when such write-downs or write-offs are identified through the quarterly
review process. The inventory valuation is based upon assumptions about future demand, product mix, and
possible alternative uses.

Equity Incentive and Stock Purchase Plans

Stock-based compensation expense is based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the

provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.” As required by ASC 718, we have made an
estimate of expected forfeitures and are recognizing compensation costs only for those stock-based compensation
awards expected to vest.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax

basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the
differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by a valuation allowance
if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We performed the
required assessment of positive and negative evidence regarding the realization of the net deferred tax assets in
accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This assessment included the evaluation of
scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, estimates of projected future taxable income and tax-planning
strategies. Although realization is not assured, based on our assessment, we concluded that it is more likely than
not that such assets, net of the existing valuation allowance, will be realized. U.S. income taxes are not provided
for on the earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries which are expected to be reinvested indefinitely in operations outside
the U.S. For intra-period tax allocations, we first utilize non-equity related tax attributes, such as net operating
losses and credit carryforwards, and then equity-related tax attributes. We use the with-and-without method for
calculating excess stock compensation deductions and do not take into account any indirect impacts of excess
stock compensation deductions on its research and development tax credits, domestic production activities
deduction, and other differences between financial reporting and tax reporting.

Investments

We account for our investments in debt and equity securities in accordance with the provisions of ASC 320-

10, “Investments—Debt and Equity Securities.” On a quarterly basis, we review our investments to identify and
evaluate those that have an indication of a potential other-than-temporary impairment. Factors considered in
determining whether a loss is other-than-temporary include:

• The length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost;

• The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; and

• The intent and ability to retain the investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for

any anticipated recovery in market value.

22

Goodwill, Intangible and Long-Lived Assets

We assess goodwill for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter, as of December 31, on a reporting

unit basis, or more frequently, when events and circumstances occur indicating that the recorded goodwill may
be impaired. If the book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the implied fair value of goodwill is
compared with the carrying amount of goodwill. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied fair
value, an impairment charge is recorded in an amount equal to that excess. In the fourth quarter of 2014, we
performed our annual goodwill impairment test and recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $98.9 million in
our Wireless Test segment as a result of decreased projected demand attributable to an estimated smaller future
wireless test market due to reuse of wireless test equipment, price competition and different testing techniques.

We assess the impairment of intangible and long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider important in the determination of an
impairment include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results,
significant changes in the manner that we use the acquired asset and significant negative industry or economic
trends.

As a result of the Wireless Test segment goodwill impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2014 described
above, we performed an impairment test of the Wireless Test segment’s intangible and long-lived assets based on
a comparison of the estimated undiscounted cash flows to the recorded value of the assets and there was no
indication of impairment. When we determine that the carrying value of intangible and long-lived assets may not
be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, we measure any
impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate commensurate with the
associated risks.

The increase in Semiconductor Test revenues of $277.8 million or 27% from 2013 to 2014 was primarily
due to higher system-on-a-chip (“SOC”) product volume, driven by a larger application processor test market
driven by market demand.

The decrease in Semiconductor Test revenues of $104.7 million or 9% from 2012 to 2013 was primarily due
to a decrease in SOC test product sales because of a smaller application processor test market, partially offset by
higher memory system sales.

The decrease in Wireless Test revenues of $67.4 million or 27% from 2013 to 2014 was primarily due to

lower cellular and connectivity product volume.

The decrease in Wireless Test revenues of $34.5 million or 12% from 2012 to 2013 was primarily due to

lower connectivity product volume, partially offset by higher cellular product volume.

The increase in System Test revenues of $9.5 million or 6% from 2013 to 2014 was primarily due to higher
product volume in Storage Test and Production Board Test, partially offset by lower Defense/Aerospace product
sales.

The decrease in System Test revenues of $89.7 million or 37% from 2012 to 2013 was primarily due to

lower product volume in Storage Test. The decrease in Storage Test sales was due to lower hard disk drive
demand primarily from lower shipments of personal computers.

Our product revenues increased $209.1 million or 18% in 2014 from 2013 primarily due to an increase in
SOC test product volume, driven by a larger application processor test market driven by market demand. This
increase was partially offset by lower cellular and connectivity product volume in Wireless Test. Service
revenues, which are derived from the servicing of our installed base of products and includes equipment
maintenance contracts, repairs, extended warranties, parts sales, and applications support, increased $10.8 million
or 4%.

Our product revenues decreased $228.7 million or 17% in 2013 from 2012 primarily due to a decrease in
SOC test product sales because of a smaller application processor test market and due to lower product volume in
Storage Test.

In 2014, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenues. In 2013 and 2012,
revenues from one customer accounted for 12% and 10%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues. In each of
the years 2014, 2013 and 2012, our three largest customers in aggregate accounted for 21%, 26% and 29%,
respectively, of our consolidated revenues.

Gross profit as a percent of total revenues decreased from 2013 to 2014 by 3.3 points. This decrease was a

result of a decrease of 2.8 points related to unfavorable product mix in SOC Semiconductor Test and lower
Wireless Test sales and a decrease of 1.1 points due to pension expense in 2014 compared to pension income in
2013, partially offset by an increase of 1.1 points due to higher sales volume.

Gross profit as a percent of total revenues increased from 2012 to 2013 by 3.1 points. This increase was a
result of an increase of 1.7 points related to favorable product mix in SOC Semiconductor Test and lower Storage

We assess the carrying value of our inventory on a quarterly basis by estimating future demand and
comparing that demand against on-hand and on-order inventory positions. Forecasted revenue information is
obtained from the sales and marketing groups and incorporates factors such as backlog and future product
demand. This quarterly process identifies obsolete and excess inventory. Obsolete inventory, which represents
items for which there is no demand, is fully reserved. Excess inventory, which represents inventory items that are
not expected to be consumed during the next twelve quarters for our Semiconductor Test and System Test
segments and next four quarters for our Wireless Test segment, is written-down to estimated net realizable value.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded an inventory provision of $22.2 million included in

cost of revenues, due to the following factors:

— A charge of $15.4 million due to downward revisions to previously forecasted demand levels, of which
$8.1 million was in Semiconductor Test, $5.2 million was in Wireless Test and $2.1 million was in
System Test; and

— A $6.8 million inventory write-down as a result of product transition, of which $6.3 million was in

Semiconductor test and $0.5 million in Wireless Test.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded an inventory provision of $16.6 million included in

cost of revenues, due to the following factors:

— A charge of $12.2 million due to downward revisions to previously forecasted demand levels, of which
$5.2 million was in Semiconductor Test, $4.2 million was in System Test and $2.8 million was in
Wireless Test; and

— A $4.4 million inventory write-down as a result of product transition in Wireless Test.

27

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded an inventory provision of $26.8 million included in

cost of revenues, due to the following factors:

— A charge of $12.0 million due to decline in demand compared to previously forecasted demand levels
for prior generation Magnum testers resulted in an inventory provision in Semiconductor Test;

— A $5.3 million inventory write-down as a result of product transition related to the Flex Test Platform

in Semiconductor Test;

— A $3.9 million inventory write-down as a result of product transition in Wireless Test; and

— The remainder of the charge of $5.6 million primarily reflects downward revisions to previously

forecasted demand levels, of which $4.3 million was in System Test, $1.1 million in Semiconductor
Test and $0.2 million in Wireless Test.

During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we scrapped $20.8 million, $35.3 million and

$9.6 million of inventory, respectively, and sold $12.9 million, $9.8 million and $4.3 million of previously
written-down or written-off inventory, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, we had inventory related reserves
for amounts which had been written-down or written-off totaling $111.3 million. We have no pre-determined
timeline to scrap the remaining inventory.

2014 compared to $4.4 million of pension income in 2013, a $10.9 million increase in Semiconductor Test
spending, $2.7 million of higher variable compensation and $2.6 million of increased spending in Wireless Test,
partially offset by lower System Test spending.

The increase of $8.2 million in engineering and development expenses from 2012 to 2013 was due primarily

acquisition. Acquired intangible assets amortization expense decreased from 2012 to 2013 due to intangible
assets that became fully amortized during the year, partially offset by increased amortization expense due to the
ZTEC acquisition.

Goodwill Impairment

In the fourth quarter of 2014, we performed our annual goodwill impairment test and recorded a goodwill

impairment charge of $98.9 million in our Wireless Test segment as a result of decreased projected demand
attributable to an estimated smaller future wireless test market due to reuse of wireless test equipment, price
competition and different testing techniques. Further reductions in the size of the wireless test market may occur,
which may result in additional goodwill impairment charges, increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories,
asset write-offs and restructuring charges.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded $1.6 million of charges related to headcount

reductions of approximately 43 people, primarily in Semiconductor Test and Wireless Test.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded $1.9 million of severance charges related to
headcount reductions of 48 people primarily in System Test and Semiconductor Test and a $(0.4) million credit
in Corporate related to a change in the estimated exit costs related to a leased facility.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded $1.0 million of severance charges related to

headcount reductions of 19 people primarily in System Test and Semiconductor Test.

The remaining accrual for severance of $0.4 million is reflected in the accrued employees’ compensation

and withholdings on the balance sheet and is expected to be paid by June 2015.

Other

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded a $0.6 million gain from the fair value adjustment
to decrease the ZTEC acquisition contingent consideration, partially offset by $0.4 million of acquisition costs
related to AIT.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, due to a decrease in specified new product revenue through the
December 31, 2012 earn-out period end date, we recorded an $8.8 million gain from the fair value adjustment to
decrease the LitePoint acquisition contingent consideration.

Interest expense decreased by $19.2 million, from $26.1 million in 2013 to $6.9 million in 2014, due
primarily to a repayment of our convertible debt in the first quarter of 2014. In 2013 and 2012, interest expense
included convertible debt discount amortization.

In 2013, other (income) expense, net included a $34.2 million gain from the sale of an equity investment.

Included in Corporate are pension and postretirement plans actuarial gains and losses, interest income and
interest expense.

The decrease in income before income taxes from 2013 to 2014 was primarily due to a $98.9 million

goodwill impairment charge related to Wireless Test and $46.6 million pension expense related to actuarial
losses in 2014, partially offset by higher income due to higher revenues in Semiconductor Test in 2014.

The decrease in income before income taxes from 2012 to 2013 was primarily due to lower revenues in

2013 compared to 2012, a $9.8 million increase in restructuring and other costs, partially offset by a $34.2
million gain from the sale of an equity investment in 2013.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for 2014, 2013 and 2012 totaled $14.1 million, $37.0 million and $48.9 million,
respectively. The effective tax rate for 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 14.8%, 18.3% and 18.4%, respectively. The
decrease in income tax expense from 2013 to 2014 was primarily attributable to a shift in the geographic
distribution of income which decreased income subject to taxation in the United States relative to lower tax rate
jurisdictions, partially offset by an increase in income tax expense associated with uncertain tax positions and a
reduction in the benefit from U.S. research and development tax credits.

The decrease in income tax expense from 2012 to 2013 was due to the reinstatement of the U.S. research

and development tax credit in 2013 for fiscal years 2013 and 2012 and lower pre-tax income, partially offset by
higher tax expense for uncertain tax positions and state taxes.

30

U.S. research and development tax credits provided a 7.9% and 7.2% reduction to the 2014 and 2013 U.S.
statutory federal tax rate of 35.0%, respectively. The research and development tax credit expired at the end of
2014; therefore if the credit is not re-enacted there could be an unfavorable impact on our 2015 effective income
tax rate.

We operate under a tax holiday in Singapore, which is effective through December 31, 2015. The tax
savings attributable to the Singapore tax holiday for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 were
$13.2 million or $0.06 per diluted share, $4.7 million or $0.02 per diluted share and $10.9 million or $0.05 per
diluted share, respectively. We are in discussions with the Singapore Economic Development Board with respect
to extension of the tax holiday for periods after December 31, 2015.

Included in Other Long-Term Liabilities are liabilities for customer advances, extended warranty, uncertain
tax positions, deferred tax liabilities and other obligations. For certain long-term obligations, we are unable
to provide a reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of future payments relating to these obligations and
therefore we included these amounts in the column marked “Other.”

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance increased $99.2 million to $1.3 billion from

In 2014, changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of businesses acquired, provided cash of $52.4
million. This was due to a $100.8 million decrease in operating assets and a $48.4 million decrease in operating
liabilities.

31

The decrease in operating assets was due to a $41.5 million decrease in prepayments and other assets
primarily related to a reduction in prepayments to our contract manufacturers, a $51.2 million decrease in
inventories due to higher sales, and an $8.1 million decrease in accounts receivable.

The decrease in operating liabilities was due to $33.9 million of retirement plan contributions, a $17.0
million decrease in other accrued liabilities, a $16.9 million decrease in accounts payable, a $7.3 million decrease
in accrued employee compensation due primarily to employee stock awards payroll taxes and variable
compensation payments, a $4.3 million convertible note interest payment, partially offset by a $22.0 million
increase in customer advance payments and deferred revenue, and an $8.9 million increase in accrued income
taxes.

Investing activities during 2014 used cash of $332.9 million due to $1,578.7 million used for purchases of

marketable securities and $169.0 million used for purchases of property, plant and equipment, and $19.4 million
used for the acquisition of AIT, completed in October 2014, partially offset by proceeds from sales and
maturities of marketable securities that provided cash of $859.7 million and $570.4 million, respectively, and net
proceeds from life insurance of $4.2 million primarily related to the cash surrender value from the cancellation of
Teradyne owned life insurance policies on its retired chief executive officer. The increase in purchase of
property, plant and equipment of $62.3 million in 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 is
primarily due to testers used for customer leases.

Financing activities during 2014 used cash of $206.6 million, $191.0 million of cash was used for payments

on long-term debt related to the convertible note and a loan in Japan and $37.4 million was used for dividend
payments, partially offset by $21.3 million provided by the issuance of common stock under employee stock
purchase and stock option plans and $0.5 million from the tax benefit related to stock options and restricted stock
units.

In 2013, changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of businesses sold and acquired, used cash of $49.7

million. This was due to a $32.1 million increase in operating assets and a $17.7 million decrease in operating
liabilities.

The increase in operating assets was due to a $49.6 million increase in prepayments due primarily to
prepayments to our contract manufacturers and a $3.7 million increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by
a $21.2 million decrease in inventories.

The decrease in operating liabilities was due to a $2.5 million decrease in accrued employee compensation

due primarily to employee stock awards payroll taxes and variable compensation payments, a $28.9 million
decrease in customer advance payments and deferred revenue, and $5.5 million of retirement plan contributions,
partially offset by a $13.9 million increase in other accrued liabilities, a $3.7 million increase in accounts payable
due to higher fourth quarter sales volume, and a $1.6 million increase in accrued income taxes.

Investing activities during 2013 used cash of $283.3 million. In October 2013, we completed the acquisition

of ZTEC for an initial cash purchase price, net of cash acquired, of $15.0 million. Purchases of property, plant
and equipment were $106.7 million. Purchases of marketable securities used cash of $1,170.5 million, partially
offset by proceeds from maturities and sales of marketable securities that provided cash of $516.5 million and
$458.5 million, respectively. The sale of an equity investment provided cash of $34.2 million. Purchases of life
insurance policies used cash of $0.3 million.

Financing activities during 2013 provided cash of $17.3 million, $17.6 million was from the issuance of
common stock under stock option and stock purchase plans, and $2.7 million from the tax benefit related to stock
options and restricted stock units, partially offset by $0.4 million of cash used for payments related to LitePoint
acquisition contingent consideration and $2.5 million of cash used for payments on long-term debt related to a
loan in Japan.

32

In 2012, changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of businesses sold and acquired, used cash of $41.8

million. This was due to a $9.4 million increase in operating assets and a $32.4 million decrease in operating
liabilities.

The increase in operating assets was due to a $24.1 million increase in accounts receivable and a $3.0
million increase in prepayments due primarily to supplier prepayments, partially offset by a $17.7 million
decrease in inventories.

The decrease in operating liabilities was due to a $15.7 million decrease in accrued employee compensation

due primarily to employee stock awards payroll taxes and variable compensation payments, a $14.6 million
decrease in customer advance payments and deferred revenue, a $11.5 million decrease in accounts payable due
to lower fourth quarter sales volume, a $5.6 million decrease in other accrued liabilities, and $4.8 million of
retirement plan contributions, partially offset by a $19.8 million increase in accrued income taxes.

Investing activities during 2012 used cash of $602.5 million, due to $748.2 million used for purchases of
marketable securities and $119.1 million used for purchases of property, plant and equipment, partially offset by
proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities that provided cash of $38.3 million and $225.1
million, respectively, and proceeds of $1.5 million from life insurance policies.

Financing activities during 2012 used cash of $35.3 million, $18.5 million was from the issuance of

common stock under stock option and stock purchase plans, and $8.5 million from the tax benefit related to stock
options and restricted stock units, partially offset by $59.7 million of cash used for payments related to LitePoint
acquisition contingent consideration and $2.5 million of cash used for payments on long-term debt related to a
loan in Japan.

In January 2014, our Board of Directors declared an initial quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share. In

each of the second, third and fourth quarters of 2014, we paid a cash dividend of $0.06 per share. In January
2015, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.06 per share to be paid on March 24, 2015 to
shareholders of record as of February 27, 2015. Total dividend payments in 2014 were $37.4 million. Payment of
future cash dividends are subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend, among other things,
upon our earnings, capital requirements and financial condition.

In January 2015, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of common stock,

$300 million of which we intend to repurchase in 2015.

We believe our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance will be sufficient to pay our

quarterly dividend, execute our authorized share repurchase program and meet our working capital and
expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months. The amount of cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities in the U.S. and our operations in the U.S. provide sufficient liquidity to fund our business activities in
the U.S. We have approximately $616 million of cash outside the U.S. that if repatriated would incur additional
taxes. Determination of the additional taxes that would be incurred is not practicable due to uncertainty regarding
the remittance structure, the mix of earnings and earnings and profit pools in the year of remittance, and overall
complexity of the calculation. Inflation has not had a significant long-term impact on earnings.

Retirement Plans

ASC 715-20, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans” requires an employer with
defined benefit plans or other postretirement benefit plans to recognize an asset or a liability on its balance sheet
for the overfunded or underfunded status of the plans as defined by ASC 715-20. The pension asset or liability
represents the difference between the fair value of the pension plan’s assets and the projected benefit obligation
as of December 31. For other postretirement benefit plans, the liability is the difference between the fair value of
the plan’s assets and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of December 31.

33

Our pension expense, which includes the U.S. Qualified Pension Plan (“U.S. Plan”), certain qualified plans

for non-U.S. subsidiaries, and a U.S. Supplemental Executive Defined Benefit Plan, was approximately
$52.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The largest portion of our 2014 pension expense was $31.2
million for our U.S. Plan. Pension expense is calculated based upon a number of actuarial assumptions. Discount
rate and expected return on assets are two assumptions which are important elements of pension plan expense/
income and asset/liability measurement. We evaluate our discount rate and expected rate of return on assets
assumptions annually on a plan and country specific basis. We evaluate other assumptions related to
demographic factors, such as retirement age, mortality and turnover periodically, and update them to reflect our
experience and expectations for the future. In the fourth quarter of 2014, we updated the mortality assumptions
related to our U.S retirement plans using the mortality tables published in October 2014 by the U.S. Society of
Actuaries. The change in the mortality assumptions resulted in approximately $39.0 million of actuarial losses in
2014 for the U.S. retirement plans.

In developing the expected return on U.S. Plan assets assumption, we evaluated input from our investment

managers and pension consultants, including their review of asset class return expectations. Based on this review,
we believe that 5.0% was an appropriate rate to use for 2014. The December 31, 2014 asset allocation for our
U.S. Plan was 83% invested in fixed income securities, 16% invested in equity securities, and 1% invested in
other securities. Our investment managers regularly review the actual asset allocation and periodically rebalance
the portfolio to ensure alignment with our targeted allocations.

Effective January 1, 2012, we elected to immediately recognize net actuarial gains and losses and the
change in the fair value of plans assets in our operating results in the year in which they occur or upon any
interim remeasurement of the plans. In addition, we used to calculate the expected return on plan assets using a
calculated market-related value of plan assets. Effective January 1, 2012, we elected to calculate the expected
return on plan assets using the fair value of the plan assets.

The discount rate that we utilized for determining future pension obligations for the U.S. Plan is based on

the Citigroup Pension Index adjusted for the U.S. Plan’s expected cash flows and was 3.7% at December 31,
2014, down from 4.5% at December 31, 2013. We estimate that in 2015 we will recognize approximately $1.5
million of pension income for the U.S. Plan. The U.S. Plan pension income estimate for 2015 is based on a 3.7%
discount rate and 4.75% return on assets. Future pension expense or income will depend on future investment
performance, changes in future discount rates and various other factors related to the employee population
participating in our pension plans.

As of December 31, 2014, our pension plans had unrecognized pension prior service cost of $0.4 million.

We performed a sensitivity analysis, which expresses the potential U.S. Plan (income) expense for the year
ending December 31, 2015, which would result from changes to either the discount rate or the expected return on
plan assets. The below estimates exclude the impact of any potential actuarial gains or losses. It is difficult to
reliably forecast or predict whether there will be any actuarial gains or losses in 2015 as they are primarily driven
by events and circumstances beyond our control, such as changes in interest rates and the performance of the
financial markets.

The assets of the U.S. Plan consist substantially of fixed income securities. U.S. Plan assets have increased

from $256.4 million at December 31, 2013 to $316.1 million at December 31, 2014.

34

Our funding policy is to make contributions to our pension plans in accordance with local laws and to the

extent that such contributions are tax deductible. During 2014, we made contributions of $30.0 million to the
U.S. Plan, $1.8 million to the U.S. supplemental executive defined benefit pension plan and $1.2 million to
certain qualified plans for non-U.S. subsidiaries. We expect to contribute approximately $2.5 million to the U.S.
supplemental executive defined benefit pension plan in 2015. Contributions that will be made in 2015 to certain
qualified plans for non-U.S. subsidiaries are based on local statutory requirements and will be approximately
$1.0 million. We do not expect to make any contributions to the U.S. Plan in 2015.

Equity Compensation Plans

In addition to our 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan discussed in Note N: “Stock Based Compensation”
in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, we have a 2006 Equity and Cash Compensation Incentive Plan
(the “2006 Equity Plan”) under which equity securities are authorized for issuance. The 2006 Equity Plan was
initially approved by stockholders on May 25, 2006.

At our annual meeting of stockholders held May 21, 2013, our stockholders approved an amendment to the

2006 Equity Plan to increase the number of shares issuable thereunder by 10.0 million, for an aggregate of
32.0 million shares issuable thereunder, and our stockholders also approved an amendment to our 1996
Employee Stock Purchase Plan to increase the number of shares issuable thereunder by 5.0 million, for an
aggregate of 30.4 million shares issuable thereunder.

The following table presents information about these plans as of December 31, 2014 (share numbers in

In connection with the 2008 acquisition of Nextest (the “Nextest Acquisition”), we assumed the options and
restricted stock units granted under the Nextest Systems Corporation 1998 Equity Incentive Plan, as
amended, and the Nextest Systems Corporation 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Nextest
Plans”). Upon the consummation of the Nextest Acquisition, these options and restricted stock units were
converted automatically into, respectively, options to purchase and restricted stock units representing, an
aggregate of 4,417,594 shares of our common stock. No additional awards will be granted under the Nextest
Plans. As of December 31, 2014, there were outstanding options exercisable for an aggregate of 185,036
shares of our common stock pursuant to the Nextest Plans, with a weighted average exercise price of $3.18
per share.
In connection with the 2008 acquisition of Eagle Test (the “Eagle Acquisition”), we assumed the options
granted under the Eagle Test Systems, Inc. 2003 Stock Option and Grant Plan and the Eagle Test Systems,
Inc. 2006 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Eagle Plans”). Upon the consummation of the
Eagle Acquisition, these options were converted automatically into options to purchase an aggregate of
3,594,916 shares of our common stock. No additional awards will be granted under the Eagle Plans. As of
December 31, 2014, there were outstanding options exercisable for an aggregate of 129,467 shares of our
common stock pursuant to the Eagle Plans, with a weighted average exercise price of $3.85 per share.

(5)

In connection with the 2011 acquisition of LitePoint Corporation (the “LitePoint Acquisition”), we assumed
the options granted under the LitePoint Corporation 2002 Stock Plan (the “LitePoint Plan”). Upon the
consummation of the LitePoint Acquisition, these options were converted automatically into options to
purchase an aggregate of 2,828,344 shares of our common stock. No additional awards will be granted
under the LitePoint Plan. As of December 31, 2014, there were outstanding options exercisable for an
aggregate of 673,703 shares of our common stock pursuant to the LitePoint Plan, with a weighted average
exercise price of $2.92 per share.

The purpose of the 2006 Equity Plan is to motivate employees, officers and directors by providing equity

ownership and compensation opportunities in Teradyne. The aggregate number of shares available under the
2006 Equity Plan as of December 31, 2014 was 12,443,022 shares of our common stock. The 2006 Equity Plan
authorizes the grant of stock-based awards in the form of (1) non-qualified and incentive stock options, (2) stock
appreciation rights, (3) restricted stock awards and restricted stock unit awards, (4) phantom stock, and (5) other
stock-based awards. Awards may be tied to time-based vesting schedules and/or performance-based vesting
measured by reference to performance criteria chosen by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors,
which administers the 2006 Equity Plan. Awards may be made to any employee, officer, consultant and advisor
of Teradyne and our subsidiaries, as well as, to our directors. The maximum number of shares of stock-based
awards that may be granted to one participant during any one fiscal year is 2,000,000 shares of common stock.
The 2006 Equity Plan will expire on May 24, 2016.

As of December 31, 2014, total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock

units and options was $51.3 million, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4
years.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”
which will replace numerous requirements in U.S. GAAP, including industry-specific requirements, and provide
companies with a single revenue recognition model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The
core principle of the new standard is that a company should recognize revenue to show the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be

36

entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard will be effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. For Teradyne,
the standard will be effective in the first quarter of 2017. The two permitted transition methods under the new
standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting
period presented, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the
standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. We have not yet selected a transition method. We
are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our financial position and results of operations.

Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash

equivalents, marketable securities, forward currency contracts and accounts receivable. Our cash equivalents
consist primarily of money market funds invested in U.S. Treasuries and government agencies. Our fixed income
available-for-sale marketable securities have a minimum rating of AA by one or more of the major credit rating
agencies. We place forward currency contracts with high credit-quality financial institutions in order to minimize
credit risk exposure. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the large
number of geographically dispersed customers. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’
financial condition and from time to time may require customers to provide a letter of credit from a bank to
secure accounts receivable.

Exchange Rate Risk Management

We regularly enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the value of our monetary assets and
liabilities in Japanese Yen, British Pound, Korean Won, Taiwan Dollar and Euro. These foreign currency forward
contracts have maturities of approximately one month. These contracts are used to minimize the effect of
exchange rate fluctuations associated with the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities. We do not
engage in currency speculation.

We performed a sensitivity analysis assuming a hypothetical 10% fluctuation in foreign exchange rates to
the hedging contracts and the underlying exposures described above. As of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012,
the analysis indicated that these hypothetical market movements would not have a material effect on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Interest Rate Risk Management

We are exposed to potential losses due to changes in interest rates. Our interest rate exposure is primarily in

the United States in short-term and long-term marketable securities.

In order to estimate the potential loss due to interest rate risk, a fluctuation in interest rates of 25 basis points
was assumed. Market risk for the short and long-term marketable securities was estimated as the potential change
in the fair value resulting from a hypothetical change in interest rates for securities contained in the investment
portfolio. The potential change in fair value from changes in interest rates is immaterial as of December 31, 2014
and 2013.

Item 8:

Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Teradyne, Inc.:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)
(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Teradyne, Inc. and its subsidiaries at
December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in
the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein
when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014,
based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for
these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in “Management’s Annual
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting” appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express
opinions on these financial statements and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on
our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether
effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the
financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting
included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material
weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on
the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting
includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

TERADYNE, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. THE COMPANY

Teradyne, Inc. is a leading global supplier of automatic test equipment. Teradyne’s automatic test

equipment products and services include:

•

•

•

semiconductor test (“Semiconductor Test”) systems;

wireless test (“Wireless Test”) systems; and

defense/aerospace (“Defense/Aerospace”) test instrumentation and systems, storage test (“Storage
Test”) systems, and circuit-board test and inspection (“Production Board Test”) systems (collectively
these products represent “System Test”).

B. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Teradyne and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. Certain prior years’ amounts were
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Preparation of Financial Statements and Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent
liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to inventories,
investments, goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets, doubtful accounts, income taxes, deferred tax
assets, pensions, warranties, and loss contingencies. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and
on appropriate and customary assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results
of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Teradyne recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, title and risk of loss
have passed, delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable
and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss generally pass to its customers
upon shipment or at delivery destination point. In circumstances where either title or risk of loss pass upon
destination, acceptance or cash payment, Teradyne defers revenue recognition until such events occur.

Teradyne’s equipment has non-software and embedded software components that function together to
deliver the equipment’s essential functionality. Revenue is recognized upon shipment or at delivery destination
point, provided that customer acceptance criteria can be demonstrated prior to shipment. Certain contracts require
Teradyne to perform tests of the product to ensure that performance meets the published product specifications or
customer requested specifications, which are generally conducted prior to shipment. Where the criteria cannot be
demonstrated prior to shipment, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance has been received. Teradyne also
defers the portion of the sales price that is not due until acceptance, which represents deferred profit.

For multiple element arrangements, Teradyne allocates revenue to all deliverables based on their relative

selling prices. In such circumstances, a hierarchy is used to determine the selling price for allocating revenue to
deliverables as follows: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”), (ii) third-party
evidence of selling price (“TPE”), and (iii) best estimate of the selling price (“BESP”). For a delivered item to be
considered a separate unit the delivered item must have value to the customer on a standalone basis and the
delivery or performance of the undelivered item must be considered probable and substantially in Teradyne’s
control.

44

Teradyne’s post-shipment obligations include installation, training services, one-year standard warranties,

and extended warranties. Installation does not alter the product capabilities, does not require specialized skills or
tools and can be performed by the customers or other vendors. Installation is typically provided within five days
of product shipment and is completed within one to two days thereafter. Training services are optional and do not
affect the customers’ ability to use the product. Teradyne defers revenue for the selling price of installation and
training. Revenue associated with the one year standard warranty is recognized at the time product revenue is
recognized. Extended warranties constitute warranty obligations beyond one year and Teradyne defers revenue in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
605-20, “Separately Priced Extended Warranty and Product Maintenance Contracts” and ASC 605-25,
“Revenue Recognition Multiple-Element Arrangements.” Service revenue is recognized over the contractual
period or as services are performed.

Teradyne’s products are generally subject to warranty and related costs of the warranty are provided for in
cost of revenues when product revenue is recognized. Teradyne classifies shipping and handling costs in cost of
revenues. Teradyne generally does not provide its customers with contractual rights of return for any of its
products.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, deferred revenue and customer advances consisted of the following and

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The volatility of the

industries that Teradyne serves can cause certain of its customers to experience shortages of cash flows, which
can impact their ability to make required payments. Teradyne maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for
estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Estimated allowances
for doubtful accounts are reviewed periodically taking into account the customer’s recent payment history, the
customer’s current financial statements and other information regarding the customer’s credit worthiness.
Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is determined the receivable will not be
recovered.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. On a quarterly

basis, Teradyne uses consistent methodologies to evaluate all inventories for net realizable value. Teradyne
records a provision for both excess and obsolete inventory when such write-downs or write-offs are identified
through the quarterly review process. The inventory valuation is based upon assumptions about future demand,
product mix and possible alternative uses.

Investments

Teradyne accounts for its investments in debt and equity securities in accordance with the provisions of

ASC 320-10, “Investments—Debt and Equity Securities.” ASC 320-10 requires that certain debt and equity
securities be classified into one of three categories; trading, available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities. On a
quarterly basis, Teradyne reviews its investments to identify and evaluate those that have an indication of a
potential other-than-temporary impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is other-than-
temporary include:

• The length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost;

• The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; and

• The intent and ability to retain the investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for

any anticipated recovery in market value.

46

As defined in ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” fair value is the price that would

be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants. Teradyne uses the market and income approach techniques to value its financial instruments and
there were no changes in valuation techniques during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012. ASC
820-10 requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following
three categories:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets as of the reporting date.

Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly as of the reporting date.
For example, a common approach for valuing fixed income securities is the use of matrix pricing. Matrix
pricing is a mathematical technique used to value securities by relying on the securities’ relationship to other
benchmark quoted prices, and therefore is considered a Level 2 input.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not supported by market data. Unobservable inputs are developed
based on the best information available, which might include Teradyne’s own data.

In accordance with ASC 820-10, Teradyne measures its debt and equity investments at fair value.
Teradyne’s debt and equity investments are primarily classified within Level 1 and 2, with the exception of
acquisition-related contingent consideration, which was classified within Level 3. Teradyne determines the fair
value of acquisition-related contingent consideration based on assessment of the probability that it would be
required to make such payment.

Prepayments

Prepayments consist of the following and are included in prepayments on the balance sheet:

Retirement and Postretirement Plans

Effective January 1, 2012, Teradyne changed the method of recognizing actuarial gains and losses for its

defined benefit pension plans and postretirement benefit plan and calculating the expected return on plan assets
for its defined benefit pension plans. Historically, Teradyne recognized net actuarial gains and losses in
accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity on its consolidated balance sheet on an
annual basis and amortized them into operating results over the average remaining years of service of the plan
participants, to the extent such gains and losses were outside of a range (“corridor”). Teradyne elected to
immediately recognize net actuarial gains and losses and the change in the fair value of the plan assets in its
operating results in the year in which they occur or upon any interim remeasurement of the plans. In addition,
Teradyne used to calculate the expected return on plan assets using a calculated market-related value of plan
assets. Effective January 1, 2012, Teradyne elected to calculate the expected return on plan assets using the fair
value of the plan assets.

Teradyne believes that this new method is preferable as it eliminates the delay in recognizing gains and losses

in its operating results and it will improve the transparency by faster recognition of the effects of economic and
interest rate trends on plan obligations and investments. These actuarial gains and losses are generally measured
annually as of December 31 and, accordingly, will be recorded during the fourth quarter of each year or upon any

47

interim remeasurement of the plans. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 250, “Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections,” all prior periods presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been adjusted to apply the new
accounting method retrospectively.

Goodwill, Intangible and Long-Lived Assets

Teradyne accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350-10, “Intangibles-

Goodwill and Other.” Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful economic life and are carried at
cost less accumulated amortization. Goodwill is assessed for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter, as
of December 31, on a reporting unit basis, or more frequently when events and circumstances occur indicating
that the recorded goodwill may be impaired. In accordance with ASC 350-10, Teradyne has the option to perform
a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is
less than its carrying amount. If Teradyne determines this is the case, Teradyne is required to perform the two-
step goodwill impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of goodwill
impairment loss to be recognized. If Teradyne determines that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the
reporting unit is greater than its carrying amounts, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required.

In accordance with ASC 360-10, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” Teradyne reviews long-

lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer
appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the estimated undiscounted cash flows to the
recorded value of the asset. If impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value based
on a discounted cash flow analysis. The cash flow estimates used to determine the impairment, if any, contain
management’s best estimates using appropriate assumptions and projections at that time. There were no events or
circumstances indicating that the carrying value of intangible and long-lived assets may not be recoverable in
2013 or 2012. As a result of the Wireless Test segment goodwill impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2014,
Teradyne performed an impairment test of the Wireless Test segment’s intangible and long-lived assets based on
a comparison of the estimated undiscounted cash flows to the recorded value of the assets and there was no
indication of impairment.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Leasehold improvements and major renewals are capitalized and included in property, plant and equipment
accounts while expenditures for maintenance and repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense. When
assets are retired, the assets and related allowances for depreciation are removed from the accounts and any
resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations.

Teradyne provides for depreciation of its assets principally on the straight-line method with the cost of the

assets being charged to expense over their useful lives as follows:

Test systems manufactured internally are used by Teradyne for customer evaluations and manufacturing and

support of its customers. Teradyne depreciates the test systems manufactured internally over a six-year life to
cost of revenues, engineering and development, and selling and administrative expenses. Teradyne often sells

48

internally manufactured test equipment to customers. Upon the sale of an internally manufactured test system,
the net book value of the system is transferred to inventory and expensed as cost of revenues. Test systems leased
by customers are depreciated over an estimated useful life of approximately four years. The net book value of
internally manufactured test systems sold in the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $9.7
million, $9.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively.

Engineering and Development Costs

Teradyne’s products are highly technical in nature and require a large and continuing engineering and

development effort. Software development costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are
charged to expense. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological
feasibility are capitalized until the product is available for release to customers. To date, the period between
achieving technological feasibility and general availability of the product has been short and software development
costs eligible for capitalization have not been material. Engineering and development costs are expensed as incurred
and consist primarily of salaries, contractor fees, allocated facility costs, depreciation, and tooling costs.

Stock Compensation Plans and Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Stock-based compensation expense is based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the
provisions of ASC 718-10, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” As required by ASC 718-10, Teradyne has
made an estimate of expected forfeitures and is recognizing compensation costs only for those stock-based
compensation awards expected to vest.

Under its stock compensation plans, Teradyne has granted stock options, restricted stock units and
performance-based restricted stock units, and employees are eligible to purchase Teradyne’s common stock
through its Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”).

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax

basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the
differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by a valuation allowance if it
is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Teradyne performed the
required assessment of positive and negative evidence regarding the realization of the net deferred tax assets in
accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This assessment included the evaluation of scheduled
reversals of deferred tax liabilities, estimates of projected future taxable income and tax-planning strategies.
Although realization is not assured, based on its assessment, Teradyne concluded that it is more likely than not that
such assets, net of the existing valuation allowance, will be realized. U.S. income taxes are not provided for on the
earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries, except Japan, which are expected to be reinvested indefinitely in operations
outside the U.S. For intra-period tax allocations, Teradyne first utilizes non-equity related tax attributes, such as net
operating losses and credit carryforwards and then equity-related tax attributes. Teradyne uses the with-and-without
method for calculating excess stock compensation deductions and does not take into account any indirect impacts of
excess stock compensation deductions on its research and development tax credits, domestic production activities
deduction, and other differences between financial reporting and tax reporting.

Advertising Costs

Teradyne expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs were $1.9 million, $1.7 million and

$1.6 million in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Translation of Non-U.S. Currencies

The functional currency for all subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. All foreign currency denominated monetary

assets and liabilities are remeasured on a monthly basis into the functional currency using exchange rates in

49

effect at the end of the period. All foreign currency denominated non-monetary assets and liabilities are
remeasured into the functional currency using historical exchange rates. Net foreign exchange gains and losses
resulting from remeasurement are included in other (income) expense, net and were a loss of $0.9 million, $6.9
million and $4.5 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012. These amounts do
not reflect the corresponding gains (losses) from foreign exchange contracts. See Note F: “Financial Instruments”
regarding foreign exchange contracts. Revenue and expense amounts are translated using an average of exchange
rates in effect during the period.

Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number

of common shares outstanding during the period. Except where the result would be antidilutive, diluted net
income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of
common shares plus common stock equivalents, if applicable.

Dilutive potential common shares included incremental shares from the assumed conversion of the
convertible notes and the convertible notes hedge warrant shares, during the periods the convertible notes and
warrants were outstanding. Incremental shares from the assumed conversion of the convertible notes were
calculated using the difference between the average Teradyne stock price for the period and the conversion price
of $5.48, multiplied by 34.7 million shares. The result of this calculation, representing the total intrinsic value of
the convertible debt, was divided by the average Teradyne stock price for the period. Convertible notes hedge
warrant shares were calculated using the difference between the average Teradyne stock price for the period and
the warrant price of $7.67, multiplied by 34.7 million shares. The result of this calculation, representing the total
intrinsic value of the warrant, was divided by the average Teradyne stock price for the period. Teradyne’s call
option for 34.7 million shares at an exercise price of $5.48 was not used in the GAAP earnings per share
calculation as its effect was anti-dilutive.

Teradyne settled its conversion spread (i.e., the intrinsic value of the embedded option feature contained in

the convertible debt) in shares. Teradyne accounted for its conversion spread using the treasury stock method.
Teradyne determined that it had the ability and intent to settle the principal amount of the convertible debt in
cash; accordingly, the principal amount was excluded from the determination of diluted earnings per share.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income, unrealized pension and postretirement prior service costs

and benefits, unrealized gains and losses on investments in debt and equity marketable securities.

C. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”
which will replace numerous requirements in U.S. GAAP, including industry-specific requirements, and provide
companies with a single revenue recognition model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The
core principle of the new standard is that a company should recognize revenue to show the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be
entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard will be effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. For Teradyne,
the standard will be effective in the first quarter of 2017. The two permitted transition methods under the new
standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting
period presented, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the
standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. Teradyne has not yet selected a transition method.
Teradyne is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial position and results of operations.

D. ACQUISITIONS

Business

Avionics Interface Technologies, LLC.

On October 31, 2014, Teradyne completed its acquisition of Avionics Interface Technologies, LLC (“AIT”)

located in Omaha, Nebraska and Dayton, Ohio. AIT is a supplier of equipment for testing state-of-the-art data
communication buses. The acquisition of AIT complements Teradyne’s Defense/Aerospace line of bus test
instrumentation for commercial and defense avionics systems. AIT is included in Teradyne’s System Test segment.

The total purchase price of $21.2 million consisted of $19.4 million of cash paid to acquire AIT’s assets and
liabilities and $1.8 million in fair value of contingent consideration payable upon achievement of certain revenue
and gross margin targets in 2015 and 2016. The maximum amount of contingent consideration that could be paid is
$2.1 million.

The valuation of the contingent consideration utilized the following assumptions: (1) probability of meeting

each target; (2) expected timing of meeting each target; and (3) discount rate reflecting the risk associated with
the expected payments. The probabilities and timing for each target were estimated based on a review of the
historical and projected results. A discount rate of 4.7 percent was selected based on the cost of debt for the
business, as a significant portion of the risk in achieving the contingent consideration was captured in the
probabilities assigned to meeting each target.

The AIT acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and, accordingly, the results have been

included in Teradyne’s consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. The allocation of the total
purchase price of AIT’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets was based on their estimated fair values as
of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the identifiable intangible and net tangible assets in
the amount of $10.5 million was allocated to goodwill, which is deductible for tax purposes.

The purchase price allocation is preliminary pending the final determination of the fair value of certain

acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

ZTEC Instruments, Inc.

On October 25, 2013, Teradyne completed its acquisition of ZTEC Instruments, Inc. (“ZTEC”) located in
Albuquerque, New Mexico. ZTEC is a supplier of modular wireless test instruments. The acquisition of ZTEC
expands Teradyne’s Wireless Test segment into the design verification test of wireless components and chipsets.

The total purchase price of $17.3 million consisted of $15.1 million of cash paid to acquire the outstanding

common and preferred stock of ZTEC and $2.2 million in fair value of contingent consideration payable upon
achievement of certain customer order and revenue targets through 2015. The maximum amount of contingent
consideration that could be paid is $5.0 million. Based on the projected results for the acquisition, no value was
assigned to the revenue component of the contingent consideration.

The valuation of the customer order component of the contingent consideration utilized the following
assumptions: (1) probability of meeting each target; (2) expected timing of meeting each target; and (3) discount
rate reflecting the risk associated with the expected payments. The probabilities and timing for each target were
estimated based on a review of the historical and projected results. A discount rate of 5.2 percent was selected
based on the cost of debt for the business, as a significant portion of the risk in achieving the customer order
contingent consideration was captured in the probabilities assigned to meeting each target.

The ZTEC acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination and, accordingly, the results
have been included in Teradyne’s consolidated results of operation from the date of acquisition. The allocation of
the total purchase price of ZTEC net tangible and identifiable intangible assets was based on their estimated fair
values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the identifiable intangible and net tangible
assets in the amount of $12.5 million was allocated to goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

classified as Level 3. The vast majority of Level 2 securities are priced by third party pricing vendors. These
pricing vendors utilize the most recent observable market information in pricing these securities or, if specific
prices are not available, use other observable inputs like market transactions involving identical or comparable
securities.

There were no realized losses recorded in 2014, 2013 and 2012. Realized gains recorded in 2014, 2013 and

2012 were $2.4 million, $1.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Realized gains are included in interest
income. Unrealized gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The cost of
securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 350-10, “Intangibles- Goodwill and Other,” goodwill with a

carrying amount of $372.3 million was written down to its implied fair value of $273.4 million, resulting in an

regarding goodwill impairment.

Derivatives

Teradyne conducts business in a number of foreign countries, with certain transactions denominated in local

currencies. The purpose of Teradyne’s foreign currency management is to minimize the effect of exchange rate
fluctuations on certain foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. Teradyne does not use
derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

To minimize the effect of exchange rate fluctuations associated with the remeasurement of monetary assets

and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, Teradyne enters into foreign currency forward contracts. The
change in fair value of these derivatives is recorded directly in earnings, and is used to offset the change in value
of the monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.

At December 31, 2014 and 2013, Teradyne had the following contracts to buy and sell non-U.S. currencies

for U.S. dollars and other non-U.S. currencies with the following notional amounts:

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject Teradyne to concentrations of credit risk consist principally
of cash equivalents, marketable securities, forward currency contracts and accounts receivable. Teradyne’s cash
equivalents consist primarily of money market funds invested in U.S. Treasuries and government agencies.
Teradyne’s fixed income available-for-sale marketable securities have a minimum rating of AA by one or more
of the major credit rating agencies. Teradyne places foreign currency forward contracts with high credit-quality
financial institutions in order to minimize credit risk exposure. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to
accounts receivable are limited due to the large number of geographically dispersed customers. Teradyne
performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and from time to time may require
customers to provide a letter of credit from a bank to secure accounts receivable.

Equity Interest

On November 1, 2013, in connection with the acquisition of Empirix, Inc. by Thoma Bravo LLC, Teradyne

sold its equity interest in Empirix, Inc., a private company, and received cash proceeds of $34.2 million which
was recorded as other income. An additional $4.8 million of cash proceeds that was held in escrow for 15
months, for potential indemnifications to the buyer, was paid to Teradyne in February 2015 and it will be
recorded as other income in the first quarter of 2015.

Loan Agreement

On March 31, 2009, Teradyne K.K., Teradyne’s wholly-owned subsidiary in Japan, entered into a loan
agreement with a local bank in Japan to borrow approximately $10.0 million (the loan was denominated in
Japanese Yen). The loan had a term of 5 years and a fixed interest rate of 0.8%. Approximately $6.0 million of
the loan was collateralized by a real estate mortgage on Teradyne K.K.’s building and land in Kumamoto, Japan
and approximately $4.0 million was unsecured. Teradyne, Inc. had guaranteed payment of the loan obligation.
The principal was amortized over the term of the loan with semi-annual principal payments of approximately $1
million payable on September 30 and March 30 each year. The final principal and interest payments were made
in March 2014.

Convertible Senior Notes

On March 31, 2009, Teradyne entered into an underwriting agreement regarding a public offering of
$175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% convertible senior notes due March 15, 2014 (the “Notes”).
On April 1, 2009, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional $15.0 million aggregate
principal amount of the Notes for a total aggregate principal amount of $190.0 million. The Notes bore interest at
a rate of 4.50% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year,
beginning on September 15, 2009. The Notes had a maturity date of March 15, 2014. Substantially all of the
Notes were converted prior to March 15, 2014 and were “net share settled,” meaning that the holders received,
for each $1,000 in principal amount of Notes, $1,000 in cash and approximately 131.95 shares of Teradyne
common stock (calculated by taking 182.65 shares, being the fixed number specified in the Notes purchase
agreement, less 50.7 shares). The 50.7 shares were determined, as specified in the Notes purchase agreement, by
dividing the $1,000 principal amount by the $19.74 average trading price of Teradyne’s common stock over the
25 day trading period from February 5, 2014 to March 12, 2014.

Teradyne satisfied the Notes “net share settlement” by paying the aggregate principal amount of $190
million in cash and issuing 25.1 million shares of common stock. On March 13, 2014, Teradyne exercised its call
option agreement entered into with Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “hedge counterparty”) at the time of issuance of
the Notes and received 25.1 million shares of Teradyne’s common stock, which Teradyne retired.

From June 17, 2014 to September 17, 2014, the hedge counterparty exercised its warrant agreement entered

into with Teradyne at the time of issuance of the Notes. The warrants were net share settled. In 2014, Teradyne
issued 21.2 million shares of its common stock for warrants exercised at a weighted average strike price of
$7.6348 per share.

I. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Teradyne performs its annual goodwill impairment test as required under the provisions of ASC 350-10,
“Intangibles—Goodwill and Other” on December 31 of each fiscal year unless interim indicators of impairment
exist. Goodwill is considered to be impaired when the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated
fair value.

Goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step involves a comparison of the
estimated fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. In performing the first step,
Teradyne determines the fair value of a reporting unit using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis.
Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgment, including judgments about appropriate
discount rates, perpetual growth rates, and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. Discount rates
are based on a weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), which represents the average rate a business must
pay its providers of debt and equity, plus a risk premium. The WACC used to test goodwill is derived from a
group of comparable companies. The cash flows employed in the DCF analysis are derived from internal
forecasts and external market forecasts. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying
amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is not
necessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, then the second step of the
goodwill impairment test must be performed. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the
implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with its carrying amount of goodwill to measure the amount of
impairment loss, if any. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of
goodwill recognized in a business combination, whereby the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is allocated
to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit
had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid.
If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an
impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

62

As a result of decreased projected demand attributable to an estimated smaller future wireless test market

due to reuse of wireless test equipment, price competition and different testing techniques, Teradyne determined
that for its Wireless Test reporting unit, the carrying amount of its net assets exceeded its respective fair value,
indicating that a potential impairment existed. After completing the second step of the goodwill impairment test,
Teradyne recorded a $98.9 million goodwill impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2014.

The fourth quarter 2014 goodwill impairment test of Teradyne’s Defense/Aerospace reporting unit, which is

included in Teradyne’s System Test reportable segment, did not identify any goodwill impairment.

Teradyne performed step one of the two step impairment test for 2013 and 2012. No goodwill impairment

was identified in 2013 and 2012.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segments for the years ended December 31,

2014 and 2013 are as follows:

Legal Claims

Teradyne is subject to legal proceedings, claims and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of
business such as, but not limited to, patent, employment, commercial and environmental matters. Teradyne
believes that it has meritorious defenses against all pending claims and intends to vigorously contest them. While
it is not possible to predict or determine the outcomes of any pending claims or to provide possible ranges of
losses that may arise, Teradyne believes the potential losses associated with all of these actions are unlikely to
have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position or results of operations.

Guarantees and Indemnification Obligations

Teradyne provides indemnification, to the extent permitted by law, to its officers, directors, employees and
agents for liabilities arising from certain events or occurrences while the officer, director, employee, or agent, is
or was serving, at Teradyne’s request in such capacity. Teradyne has entered into indemnification agreements
with certain of its officers and directors. With respect to acquisitions, Teradyne provides indemnifications to or
assumes indemnification obligations for the current and former directors, officers and employees of the acquired
companies in accordance with the acquired companies’ by-laws and charter. As a matter of practice, Teradyne
has maintained directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage including coverage for directors and officers
of acquired companies.

Teradyne enters into agreements in the ordinary course of business with customers, resellers, distributors,

integrators and suppliers. Most of these agreements require Teradyne to defend and/or indemnify the other party
against intellectual property infringement claims brought by a third party with respect to Teradyne’s products.
From time to time, Teradyne also indemnifies customers and business partners for damages, losses and liabilities
they may suffer or incur relating to personal injury, personal property damage, product liability, breach of
confidentiality obligations and environmental claims relating to the use of Teradyne’s products and services or
resulting from the acts or omissions of Teradyne, its employees, authorized agents or subcontractors. On
occasion, Teradyne has also provided guarantees to customers regarding the delivery and performance of its
products in addition to the warranty described below.

As a matter of ordinary business course, Teradyne warrants that its products will substantially perform in
accordance with its standard published specifications in effect at the time of delivery. Most warranties have a one
year duration commencing from installation. A provision is recorded upon revenue recognition to cost of revenue
for estimated warranty expense based upon historical experience. When Teradyne receives revenue for extended
warranties beyond the standard duration, it is deferred and recognized on a straight line basis over the contract
period. Related costs are expensed as incurred. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, Teradyne had a product
warranty accrual of $8.9 million and $6.7 million, respectively, included in other accrued liabilities, and revenue
deferrals related to extended warranties of $43.3 million and $34.9 million, respectively, included in short and
long-term deferred revenue and customer advances.

65

In addition, and in the ordinary course of business, Teradyne provides minimum purchase guarantees to
certain vendors to ensure continuity of supply against the market demand. Although some of these guarantees
provide penalties for cancellations and/or modifications to the purchase commitments as the market demand
decreases, most of the guarantees do not. Therefore, as the market demand decreases, Teradyne re-evaluates
these guarantees and determines what charges, if any, should be recorded.

With respect to its agreements covering product, business or entity divestitures and acquisitions, Teradyne
provides certain representations, warranties and covenants to purchasers and agrees to indemnify and hold such
purchasers harmless against breaches of such representations, warranties and covenants. Many of the
indemnification claims have a definite expiration date while some remain in force indefinitely. With respect to its
acquisitions, Teradyne may, from time to time, assume the liability for certain events or occurrences that took
place prior to the date of acquisition.

As a matter of ordinary course of business, Teradyne occasionally guarantees certain indebtedness
obligations of its subsidiary companies, limited to the borrowings from financial institutions, purchase
commitments to certain vendors, and lease commitments to landlords.

Based on historical experience and information known as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, except for

product warranty, Teradyne has not recorded any liabilities for these guarantees and obligations because the
amount would be immaterial.

(1)

Incremental shares from the assumed conversion of the convertible notes was calculated using the difference
between the average Teradyne stock price for the period and the conversion price of $5.48, multiplied by
34.7 million shares. The result of this calculation, representing the total intrinsic value of the convertible
debt, was divided by the average Teradyne stock price for the period.

(2) Convertible notes hedge warrant shares were calculated using the difference between the average Teradyne

stock price for the period and the warrant price of $7.67, multiplied by 34.7 million shares. The result of this
calculation, representing the total intrinsic value of the warrant, was divided by the average Teradyne stock
price for the period. Teradyne’s call option on its common stock (convertible note hedge transaction) was
excluded from the calculation of diluted shares because the effect was anti-dilutive. See Note G: “Debt”
regarding the convertible note hedge transaction.

66

The computation of diluted net income per common share for 2014 excludes the effect of the potential
exercise of stock options to purchase approximately 0.3 million shares because the effect would have been anti-
dilutive.

The computation of diluted net income per common share for 2013 excludes the effect of the potential
exercise of stock options to purchase approximately 0.4 million shares because the effect would have been anti-
dilutive.

The computation of diluted net income per common share for 2012 excludes the effect of the potential
exercise of stock options to purchase approximately 0.3 million shares and restricted stock units to purchase
approximately 0.3 million shares because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

L. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER

Restructuring

During the year ended December 31, 2014, Teradyne recorded $0.5 million of charges related to headcount

reductions of 8 people in Semiconductor Test, $0.5 million of charges related to headcount reductions of 28
people in Wireless Test, $0.4 million of charges related to headcount reductions of 4 people in System Test, and
$0.2 million charges related to headcount reduction of 3 people in Corporate.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, Teradyne recorded $1.9 million of severance charges related to
headcount reductions of 48 people primarily in System Test and Semiconductor Test and a $(0.4) million credit
in Corporate related to a change in the estimated exit costs related to a leased facility.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, Teradyne recorded $1.0 million of severance charges related to

headcount reductions of 19 people primarily in System Test and Semiconductor Test.

67

The remaining accrual for severance of $0.4 million, as of December 31, 2014, is reflected in the accrued

employees’ compensation and withholdings on the balance sheet and is expected to be paid by June 2015.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, Teradyne recorded a $0.6 million fair value adjustment to

decrease the ZTEC acquisition contingent consideration, partially offset by $0.4 million of acquisition costs
related to AIT.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, due to a decrease in specified new product revenue through the

December 31, 2012 earn-out period end date, Teradyne recorded an $8.8 million fair value adjustment to
decrease the LitePoint acquisition contingent consideration.

M. RETIREMENT PLANS

ASC 715, “Compensation—Retirement Benefits” requires an employer with defined benefit plans or other

postretirement benefit plans to recognize an asset or a liability on its balance sheet for the overfunded or
underfunded status of the plans as defined by ASC 715. The pension asset or liability represents a difference
between the fair value of the pension plan’s assets and the projected benefit obligation at December 31. Teradyne
uses a December 31 measurement date for all of its plans.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

Teradyne has defined benefit pension plans covering a portion of domestic employees and employees of

certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. Benefits under these plans are based on employees’ years of service and
compensation. Teradyne’s funding policy is to make contributions to the plans in accordance with local laws and
to the extent that such contributions are tax deductible. The assets of these plans consist primarily of fixed
income and equity securities. In addition, Teradyne has an unfunded supplemental executive defined benefit plan
in the United States to provide retirement benefits in excess of levels allowed by the Employment Retirement
Income Security Act (“ERISA”) and the Internal Revenue Code (the “IRC”), as well as unfunded qualified
foreign plans.

The December 31 balances of these defined benefit pension plans assets and obligations are shown below:

In developing the expected return on plan assets assumption, Teradyne evaluates input from its investment
manager and pension consultants, including their review of asset class return expectations. Based on this review,
Teradyne believes that 5.0% was an appropriate rate to use for fiscal 2014 for the U.S. Qualified Pension Plan
(“U.S. Plan”).

Effective January 1, 2012, Teradyne elected to immediately recognize net actuarial gains and losses and the

change in the fair value of the plan assets in its operating results in the year in which they occur or upon any
interim remeasurement of the plans. In addition, Teradyne used to calculate the expected return on plan assets
using a calculated market-related value of plan assets. Effective January 1, 2012, Teradyne elected to calculate
the expected return on plan assets using the fair value of the plan assets.

71

The discount rate utilized to determine future pension obligations for the U.S. Plan is based on Citigroup
Pension Index adjusted for the plan’s expected cash flows and was 3.7% at December 31, 2014, down from 4.5%
at December 31, 2013.

Plan Assets

As of December 31, 2014, the fair value of Teradyne’s pension plans’ assets totaled $345.6 million of which

$316.1 million was related to the U.S. Plan, $28.5 million was related to the U.K. defined benefit pension plan,
and $1.0 million was related to the Taiwan defined benefit pension plan. Substantially all Teradyne’s pension
plans’ assets are held in individual trusts, which were established for the investment of assets of Teradyne’s
sponsored retirement plans.

Teradyne’s weighted average pension asset allocation at December 31, 2014 and 2013, by asset category is

as follows:

The assets of the U.S. Plan are overseen by the Teradyne Fiduciary Committee which is comprised of

members of senior management drawn from appropriate diversified levels of the management team. The
Fiduciary Committee is responsible for setting the policy that provides the framework for management of the
U.S. Plan assets. In accordance with its responsibilities, the Fiduciary Committee meets on a regular basis to
review the performance of the U.S. Plan assets and compliance with the investment policy. The policy sets forth
an investment structure for managing U.S. Plan assets, including setting the asset allocation ranges, which are
expected to provide an appropriate level of overall diversification required to maximize the long-term return on
plan assets for a prudent and reasonable level of risk given prevailing market conditions, total investment return
over the long term, and preservation of capital, while maintaining sufficient liquidity to pay the benefits of the
U.S. Plan. The investment portfolio will not, at any time, have a direct investment in Teradyne stock. It may have
indirect investment in Teradyne stock, if one of the funds selected by the investment manager invests in
Teradyne stock. In developing the asset allocation ranges, third party asset allocation studies are periodically
performed that consider the current and expected positions of the plan assets and funded status. Based on this
study and other appropriate information, the Fiduciary Committee establishes asset allocation ranges taking into
account acceptable risk targets and associated returns. The investment return objectives are to avoid excessive
volatility and produce a rate of return that at least matches the Policy Index identified below. The manager’s
investment performance is reviewed at least annually. Results for the total portfolio and for each major category
of assets are evaluated in comparison with appropriate market indices and the Policy Index.

The target asset allocation and the index for each asset category for the U.S. Plan, per the investment policy,

are as follows:

Teradyne’s U.S. Plan invests primarily in common trust funds and fixed income securities. Units held in the
common trust funds are valued at the unit price as reported by the investment managers based on the asset value
of the underlying investments; underlying investments in equity securities are valued at the last reported sales
price, and underlying investments in fixed-income securities are generally valued using methods based upon
market transactions for comparable securities.

The assets of Teradyne’s foreign pension plans are invested in funds which seek to combine long-term
growth potential offered through equity exposure with the relative security provided by bonds, and are governed
locally by local management in accordance with specific jurisdictional requirements. Investments in the non-U.S.
plans consist primarily of fixed-income and equity securities. The target asset allocation for the U.K. defined
benefit pension plan, per the investment policy, is 80% fixed-income securities and 20% equity securities.

During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no transfers of pension assets in or out of

Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3.

The fair value of pension plan assets by asset category and by level at December 31, 2014 and December 31,

Postretirement Benefit Plans

In addition to receiving pension benefits, U.S. Teradyne employees who meet early retirement eligibility
requirements as of their termination dates may participate in Teradyne’s Welfare Plan, which includes death,
medical and dental benefits up to age 65. Death benefits provide a fixed sum to retirees’ survivors and are
available to all retirees. Substantially all of Teradyne’s current U.S. employees could become eligible for these
benefits, and the existing benefit obligation relates primarily to those employees.

The December 31 balances of the postretirement assets and obligations are shown below:

N. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Compensation Plans

At Teradyne’s annual meeting of stockholders held May 21, 2013, Teradyne’s stockholders approved an

amendment to Teradyne’s 2006 Equity and Cash Compensation Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares
issuable by 10.0 million for an aggregate of 32.0 million shares issuable thereunder. Teradyne’s stockholders also
approved an amendment to Teradyne’s 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan to increase the number of shares
issuable by 5.0 million, for an aggregate of 30.4 million shares issuable thereunder.

Under its stock compensation plans, Teradyne has granted stock options, restricted stock units and
performance-based restricted stock units, and employees are eligible to purchase Teradyne’s common stock
through its Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”).

Stock options to purchase Teradyne’s common stock at 100% of the fair market value on the grant date vest

in equal annual installments over four years from the grant date and have a maximum term of seven years.

Time-based restricted stock unit awards granted to employees vest in equal annual installments over four

years. Restricted stock unit awards granted to non-employee directors vest after a one year period, with 100% of
the award vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date. Teradyne expenses the cost of the restricted stock unit
awards subject to time-based vesting, which is determined to be the fair market value of the shares at the date of
grant, ratably over the period during which the restrictions lapse.

76

For grants prior to January 2014, performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) granted to executive
officers were subject to time-based vesting and performance-based vesting. The percentage level of performance
satisfied for performance-based grants was assessed on or near the anniversary of the grant date and, in turn, that
percentage level determined the number of performance-based restricted stock units available for vesting over a
four-year vesting period; portions of the performance-based grants not available for vesting were forfeited.

Commencing in January 2014, Teradyne granted PRSUs to its executive officers with a performance metric

based on relative total shareholder return (“TSR”). Teradyne’s three-year TSR performance will be measured
against the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, which consists of thirty companies in the semiconductor device
and capital equipment industries. The final number of TSR PRSUs that vest will vary based upon the level of
performance achieved from 200% of the target shares to 0% of the target shares. The TSR PRSUs will vest upon
the three-year anniversary of the grant date. No TSR PRSUs will vest if the executive officer is no longer an
employee at the end of the three-year period. Beginning with PRSUs granted in January 2014, if the recipient’s
employment ends prior to the determination of the performance percentage due to (1) permanent disability or
death or (2) retirement or termination other than for cause, after attaining both at least age sixty and at least ten
years of service, then the recipient’s PRSUs (based on the actual performance percentage achieved on the
determination date) will vest on the date the performance percentage is determined.

The TSR PRSUs are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The number of units expected to be
earned, based upon the achievement of the TSR market condition, is factored into the grant date Monte Carlo
valuation. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year service period.
Compensation expense is recognized regardless of the eventual number of units that are earned based upon the
market condition, provided the executive officer remains an employee at the end of the three-year period.
Compensation expense is reversed if at any time during the three-year service period the executive officer is no
longer an employee, subject to the retirement and termination eligibility provisions noted above. During the year
ended December 31, 2014, Teradyne granted 0.1 million TSR PRSUs with a grant date fair value of $22.06 per
unit. The fair value was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model with the following assumptions:

Expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of Teradyne’s stock and the Philadelphia

Semiconductor Index over the most recent three year period. The risk-free interest rate was determined using the
U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Dividend yield was based upon an estimated annual
dividend amount of $0.24 per share divided by $19.16, Teradyne’s stock price on January 24, 2014, the date the
awards were granted.

Stock Options Valuation Assumptions:

The total number of stock options granted in 2014, 2013 and 2012 were 0.1 million, 0.2 million and

0.2 million, respectively, at the weighted average grant date fair value of $5.49, $6.09 and $6.85 per share,
respectively. The fair value of the stock options at grant date was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-
pricing model with the following assumptions:

Teradyne determined the stock option’s expected life based upon historical exercise data for executive
officers, the age of executives and the terms of the stock option award. Volatility was determined using historical
volatility for a period equal to the expected life. The interest rate was determined using the U.S. Treasury yield
curve in effect at the time of grant.

As of December 31, 2014, total unrecognized expense related to non-vested restricted stock unit awards and

stock options was $51.3 million, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

Effective January 31, 2014, Michael Bradley retired as Chief Executive Officer of Teradyne. Mr. Bradley

will continue to serve on Teradyne’s Board of Directors. On January 22, 2014, Teradyne entered into an
agreement (the “Retirement Agreement”) with Mr. Bradley. Under the Retirement Agreement, Mr. Bradley’s
unvested restricted stock units and stock options granted prior to his retirement date will continue to vest in
accordance with their terms through January 31, 2017; and any vested options or options that vest during that
period may be exercised for the remainder of the applicable option term. In the Retirement Agreement,
Mr. Bradley agreed to be bound by non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions through January 31, 2017.
In January 2014, Teradyne recorded a one-time charge to stock-based compensation expense of $6.6 million
related to the Retirement Agreement.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Under the Teradyne 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, eligible employees may purchase shares of
common stock through regular payroll deductions of up to 10% of their compensation, to a maximum of shares
with a fair market value of $25,000 per calendar year, not to exceed 6,000 shares. Under the plan, the price paid
for the common stock, in 2014 and 2013, is equal to 85% of the stock price on the last business day of the six
month purchase period. In 2012, the price paid for the common stock was equal to 85% of the lower of the fair
market value of Teradyne’s common stock on the first business day and the last business day of each six month
purchase period within each year.

Employee Stock Purchase Rights Valuation Assumptions:

The weighted-average fair value of employee stock purchase rights granted pursuant to the ESPP in the first

and last six months of 2012 was $4.09 and $3.42, respectively. The fair value of the employees’ purchase rights
was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

O. SAVINGS PLAN

Teradyne sponsors a defined contribution employee retirement savings plan (“Savings Plan”) covering

substantially all U.S. employees. Under the Savings Plan, employees may contribute up to 20% of their
compensation (subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations). In January 2009, Teradyne amended the Savings
Plan to eliminate a fixed formula used to calculate the match and provide for a variable discretionary match to be
determined each year. In 2014, 2013 and 2012, Teradyne matched 100% of eligible employee contributions up to
4% of their compensation for employees not accruing benefits in the U.S. Qualified Pension Plan. There was no
match for employees still actively accruing benefits in the U.S. Qualified Pension Plan. Teradyne’s contributions
vest 25% per year for the first four years of employment, and contributions for those employees with four years
of service vest immediately.

In addition Teradyne established an unfunded U.S. Supplemental Savings Plan to provide savings benefits

in excess of those allowed by Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Internal Revenue Code.
The provisions of this plan are the same as the Savings Plan. Teradyne also established defined contribution
savings plans for its foreign employees. Under Teradyne’s savings plans, amounts charged to the statement of
operations for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 were $12.8 million, $12.0 million and $10.6
million, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, income tax expense totaled $14.1 million,

$37.0 million and $48.9 million, respectively, primarily attributable to a U.S. federal tax provision and tax
provisions for foreign taxes. The decrease in income tax expense from 2013 to 2014 was primarily attributable to
a shift in the geographic distribution of income which decreased income subject to taxation in the United States
relative to lower tax rate jurisdictions partially offset by an increase in income tax expense associated with
uncertain tax positions and a reduction in the benefit from U.S. research and development tax credits. The
decrease in income tax expense from 2012 to 2013 resulted from the reinstatement of the U.S. research and
development tax credit in 2013 for fiscal years 2012 and 2013 and lower pre-tax income, partially offset by
higher tax expense for uncertain tax positions and state taxes.

During 2014, Teradyne’s valuation allowance increased by $1.3 million primarily due to the increase in the

deferred tax assets related to state tax credits generated in 2014. During 2013, Teradyne reduced both its net
operating loss deferred tax asset and related valuation allowance by approximately $19.5 million which was
attributable to pre-2006 windfall stock based compensation deductions, the benefit of which will be credited to
additional paid-in capital if and when realized through a reduction in Teradyne’s income tax payable. As of
December 31, 2014 and 2013, these windfall stock option deductions were tracked off balance sheet in
accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.”

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, Teradyne evaluated the likelihood that it would realize the deferred

income taxes to offset future taxable income and concluded that it is more likely than not that a substantial
majority of its deferred tax assets will be realized through consideration of both the positive and negative
evidence. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, Teradyne maintained a valuation allowance for certain deferred tax
assets of $41.7 million and $40.4 million, respectively, primarily related to state net operating losses and state tax

83

credit carryforwards, due to the uncertainty regarding their realization. Adjustments could be required in the
future if Teradyne estimates that the amount of deferred tax assets to be realized is more or less than the net
amount recorded.

At December 31, 2014, Teradyne had operating loss carryforwards that expire in the following years:

Of the U.S. federal operating loss carryforwards, $10.7 million relates to the acquisition of GenRad, Inc.
(“GenRad”) in 2001 and $0.8 million relates to the acquisition of ZTEC in 2013. Both GenRad and ZTEC losses
are limited in the annual amount that can be used as a result of “change in ownership” rules as defined in the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The operating loss carryforward does not include any excess tax deduction
related to stock based compensation which has not been recognized for financial statement purposes.

Teradyne has approximately $140.8 million of tax credit carry forwards. Federal business tax credits of

approximately $37.0 million expire in the years 2017 through 2034. Teradyne has foreign tax credits of
approximately $27.5 million expiring in the years 2018 through 2022 and alternative minimum tax credits of
approximately $6.6 million, which do not expire. In addition, there are state tax credits of $69.7 million which
begin to expire in 2015. Teradyne has federal tax credits of $46.6 million, that are attributable to stock based
compensation deductions which will be recorded as an increase in additional paid in capital on the consolidated
balance sheet if and when they are “realized” in accordance with ASC 718-10, “Compensation—Stock
Compensation.”

Teradyne’s gross unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 were as

Current year and prior year additions include assessment of potential transfer pricing issues worldwide,

federal and state tax credits and incentives, capitalization rules, and domestic production activities deductions.

84

Reductions for tax positions for prior years primarily relate to statute expiration, stock-based compensation
deduction in a foreign jurisdiction, and the settlement of a foreign tax audit. Of the $30.4 million of unrecognized
tax benefits as of December 31, 2014, $24.1 million would impact the consolidated income tax rate if ultimately
recognized. The remaining $6.3 million would impact the valuation allowance if recognized. Teradyne estimates
that it is reasonably possible that the balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2014 may decrease
approximately $0.8 million in the next twelve months, as a result of a lapse of statutes of limitation and the
settlement of a tax audit. The estimated decrease is composed primarily of reserves relating to state tax credits
and transfer pricing.

Teradyne is subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax in multiple state, local and foreign
jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2014, all material state and local income tax matters have been concluded
through 2009, all material federal income tax matters have been concluded through 2010 and all material foreign
income tax matters have been concluded through 2008. However, in some jurisdictions, including the United
States, operating losses and tax credits may be subject to adjustment until such time as they are utilized and the
year of utilization is closed to adjustment.

As of December 31, 2014, a deferred tax liability has not been established for approximately $556.9 million
of cumulative undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries, which are expected to be reinvested indefinitely in
operations outside the U.S. Determination of the unrecognized deferred tax liability on unremitted earnings is not
practicable due to uncertainty regarding the remittance structure, the mix of earnings and earnings and profit
pools in the year of remittance, and overall complexity of the calculation.

Q. OPERATING SEGMENT, GEOGRAPHIC AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER INFORMATION

Teradyne has three operating segments (Semiconductor Test, Wireless Test and System Test), which are its
reportable segments. The Semiconductor Test segment includes operations related to the design, manufacturing
and marketing of semiconductor test products and services. The Wireless Test segment includes operations
related to the design, manufacturing and marketing of wireless test products and services. The System Test
segment includes operations related to the design, manufacturing and marketing of products and services for
defense/aerospace instrumentation test, storage test and circuit-board test. Each operating segment has a segment
manager who is directly accountable to and maintains regular contact with Teradyne’s chief operating decision
maker (Teradyne’s chief executive officer) to discuss operating activities, financial results, forecasts, and plans
for the segment.

Teradyne evaluates performance using several factors, of which the primary financial measure is business
segment income from operations before taxes. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as
those described in Note B: “Accounting Policies.”

R. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

In November 2010, the Board authorized a stock repurchase program for up to $200 million. In the years
ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, Teradyne did not repurchase any shares. The cumulative repurchases
under the 2010 program as of December 31, 2014 totaled 2.6 million shares of common stock for $31.2 million at
an average price of $11.84. In January 2015, the Board of Directors cancelled the 2010 stock repurchase
program.

S. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In January 2015, Teradyne’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.06 per share to be paid

on March 24, 2015 to shareholders of record as of February 27, 2015.

In January 2015, Teradyne’s Board of Directors authorized Teradyne to repurchase up to $500 million of

common stock, $300 million of which Teradyne intends to repurchase in 2015. The cumulative repurchases
under the 2015 program as of February 25, 2015 totaled 0.9 million shares of common stock for $16.9 million at
an average price of $19.44.

While Teradyne declared a quarterly cash dividend and authorized a share repurchase program, it may
reduce or eliminate the cash dividend or share repurchase program in the future. Future cash dividends and stock
repurchases are subject to the discretion of Teradyne’s Board of Directors which will consider, among other
things, Teradyne’s earnings, capital requirements and financial condition.

Item 9:

Changes in and disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure

None.

Item 9A: Controls and procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of our CEO and

CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b)
promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of the
end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that
material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms,
including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth fiscal quarter ended
December 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial

reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the
participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness
of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated
Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based
on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013), our management
concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2014.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 has been audited

by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report
which is included under Item 8 of this Annual Report.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Item 9B: Other Information

None.
