Rewritten

Additionally, [removed: both DALSA’s and LeCroy’s] [added: the] businesses [removed: have been] [added: of e2v, DALSA and LeCroy are] more capital intensive than other Teledyne businesses, [added: which could result in] increasing Teledyne’s capital requirements.

Rewritten

Our [removed: 2015] [added: 2016] management’s report specifically excludes from its scope and coverage our [removed: 2015] [added: 2016] acquisitions of [removed: Bowtech] [added: CARIS, Quantum Data, Frontline, IN USA] and [removed: ICM,] [added: Hanson,] allowing us additional time to evaluate existing internal controls and implement additional controls as appropriate.

Rewritten

Further, the acquisitions of [added: U.S.] public companies, such as Bolt and LeCroy, now routinely trigger purported class action lawsuits, filed by shareholders of the target companies, the defense of which has increased transaction costs, among other things.

Rewritten

The sequestration provision of the Budget Control Act of 2011 originally imposed [removed: $500] [added: $500.0] billion of defense cuts over nine years starting in fiscal year 2013, which represented approximately 9% of planned defense funding over the period.

Rewritten

On November 2, 2015, the [removed: President signed the] Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (the Budget [removed: Act).][added: Act) was signed into law.]

Rewritten

While most recently, in early 2014, we were awarded a five-year [removed: $60] [added: $60.0] million contract by NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center to develop and manufacture the Launch Vehicle Stage Adapter for the Space Launch System, failure to further transition our business successfully could result in reduced sales.

Rewritten

The [removed: outcome of the upcoming 2016] [added: new] Presidential [removed: election] [added: Administration] could also lead to changes to the nation’s space policy, some or all of which could materially impact our results.

Rewritten

We had [removed: eight] [added: one] U.S. Government [removed: contracts] [added: contract] terminated for convenience in [removed: 2015,] [added: 2016,] compared with [removed: three] [added: eight] in [removed: 2014] [added: 2015] and [removed: four] [added: three] in [removed: 2013.][added: 2014.]

Rewritten

The accounting rules applicable to our [removed: qualified] pension [removed: plan] [added: plans] require that amounts recognized in the financial statements be determined on an actuarial basis, rather than as contributions are made to the plan.

Rewritten

[removed: Recently,] [added: Each year beginning with 2014,] the Society of Actuaries released revised mortality tables, which [removed: update] [added: updated] life expectancy assumptions.

Rewritten

New in FY2017

In 2016, no commercial customer in the offshore oil and gas industry accounted for more than 1% of total sales.

New in FY2017

Risks related to the proposed acquisition of e2v:

New in FY2017

With the pending acquisition of e2v, the risk profile of Teledyne may differ materially from prior years, which could materially change our results of operations.

New in FY2017

On December 12, 2016, Teledyne and e2v reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash acquisition to be made by Teledyne for the ordinary share capital of e2v by means of a Scheme of Arrangement.

New in FY2017

At announcement, the aggregate enterprise value for the transaction is expected to be approximately £627.1 million (or approximately $788.9 million) taking into account e2v stock options and net debt.

New in FY2017

It is expected that, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all relevant conditions, the acquisition will be completed in the first half of calendar 2017.

New in FY2017

e2v is a leading designer, developer and manufacturer of radio frequency (“RF”) power systems, imaging solutions and semiconductors to the aerospace, security and defense, space, medical, scientific and industrial markets.

New in FY2017

e2v is headquartered in the United Kingdom, with key operations in the United Kingdom, France, the United States and Spain.

New in FY2017

As discussed below, while there are risks associated with acquisitions generally, including closing and integration risks, there are additional risks associated with owning and operating businesses internationally, including those arising from U.S. and foreign policy changes, political instability, and exchange rate fluctuations.

New in FY2017

With this acquisition, a greater percentage of Teledyne’s revenues and expenses will arise from international sources.

New in FY2017

The acquisition will also significantly expand Teledyne’s international employee base and manufacturing footprint.

New in FY2017

As a result of the acquisition of e2v, the financial results of the combined company will be more exposed to currency exchange rate fluctuations and an increased proportion of assets, liabilities and earnings will be denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies.

New in FY2017

The combined company will present its financial statements in U.S. dollars and will have a significant proportion of net assets, expenses and income in non-U.S. dollar currencies, primarily the British pound, the Canadian dollar and the euro.

New in FY2017

The combined company’s financial results and capital ratios will therefore be sensitive to movements in foreign exchange rates.

New in FY2017

A depreciation of non-U.S. dollar currencies relative to the U.S. dollar could have an adverse impact on the combined company’s financial results.

New in FY2017

While most of the products made and markets served by e2v are complementary to Teledyne, the acquisition of e2v will expand the size of Teledyne’s Digital Imaging segment relative to its other segments.

New in FY2017

Continued innovation and research and development efforts will be required to maintain e2v’s leadership position in imaging products and semiconductor production.

New in FY2017

e2v’s business also may be more capital intensive than many of Teledyne’s other businesses, increasing Teledyne’s capital requirements.

New in FY2017

Approximately one quarter of e2v’s revenue relates to long-term contracts, many of which involve advancements in technology and are fixed price.

New in FY2017

As discussed below, an inherent risk in fixed price contracts is that actual performance costs may exceed the projected costs on which the contracts are agreed.

New in FY2017

The failure to anticipate technical problems, estimate costs accurately or control costs during the performance of a fixed price contract can reduce its profitability or result in a loss.

New in FY2017

We may not realize all of the anticipated benefits of the proposed acquisition of e2v, or those benefits may take longer to realize than expected.

New in FY2017

We may also encounter significant unexpected difficulties in integrating the two businesses.

New in FY2017

Our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the pending acquisition of e2v will depend, to a large extent, on our ability to integrate our business with e2v’s business.

New in FY2017

Combining two independent businesses is a complex, costly and time-consuming process.

New in FY2017

As a result, we will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating the business practices and operations of the company and e2v.

New in FY2017

The integration process may disrupt the combined business and, if implemented ineffectively, could preclude the realization of the full benefits of the acquisition that are currently expected.

New in FY2017

Our failure to meet the challenges involved in integrating the two businesses and to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed acquisition could cause an interruption of, or a loss of momentum in, the activities of e2v and Teledyne and could adversely affect our results of operations.

New in FY2017

In addition, the overall integration of the businesses may result in material unanticipated problems, expenses, liabilities, competitive responses, loss of customer relationships, and diversion of management’s attention.

New in FY2017

In addition, even if the operations of the businesses of the Teledyne and e2v are integrated successfully, we may not realize the full benefits of the proposed acquisition, including the synergies, cost savings or sales or growth opportunities that we expect, or the full benefits may not be achieved within the anticipated time frame, or at all.

New in FY2017

Additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of the two businesses.

New in FY2017

All of these factors could adversely affect our earnings, decrease or delay the expected accretive effect of the proposed acquisition, or negatively impact the price of our common stock.

New in FY2017

As a result, we cannot assure that the combination of Teledyne’s and e2v’s businesses will result in the realization of the full benefits anticipated from the proposed acquisition.

New in FY2017

In order to close the proposed acquisition of e2v, we will need to incur a significant level of debt that could have significant consequences for our business and any investment in our securities.

New in FY2017

The proposed acquisition of e2v will be Teledyne’s largest acquisition to date.

New in FY2017

In connection with the announcement of the proposed acquisition, in December 2016, we entered into a £625.0 million bridge credit facility to fund the acquisition and related transaction costs, in order to meet the requirement under the U.K. City Code on Takeovers and Mergers that we have sufficient and certain resources available to fund the consideration for the acquisition.

New in FY2017

In January 2017, we amended our revolving credit agreement to allow us to use that facility to fund part of the consideration in lieu of the bridge credit facility.

New in FY2017

We intend to use the proceeds of the term loans and the senior notes to fund the consideration and transaction costs for the proposed acquisition.

New in FY2017

The indebtedness we have incurred and expect to incur to fund the proposed acquisition could have significant consequences for our business and any investment in our common stock, including:

New in FY2017

| • | increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic, industry or competitive developments; |

Dropped from FY2016

| • | the recent proposal by the President to impose a tax on each barrel of oil produced. |

Dropped from FY2016

Our 2014 acquisition of Bolt increased our exposure to offshore oil and gas exploration markets.

Dropped from FY2016

Our United Kingdom (“U.K.”)-based businesses and sales to customers in the U.K. could be adversely impacted by uncertainty related to continued U.K. membership in the European Union and continued austerity measures imposed by the U.K. Government.

Dropped from FY2016

The upcoming 2016 Presidential election could also generate uncertainty or Congressional inaction that results in further delay in funding and timing of awards that could have a material impact on our revenues in 2016.

Dropped from FY2016

In 2013, we established an environmental reserve related to potential soil remediation activities at a former leased facility, which as of January 3, 2016, was $4.6 million.

The Company’s Form 10-Qs for the second and third quarters of 2016 classified our Printed Circuit Technology (“PCT”) business, which was sold in July 2016, as discontinued operations.

New in FY2017

Based on further review we have determined that the sale and impact to the Company’s operations were insignificant and therefore the results of PCT are no longer presented within discontinued operations.
