THERMO ELECTRON CORPORATION By: /s/ Peter E. Hornstra ---------------------------------------- Peter E. Hornstra Corporate Controller and Chief Accounting Officer Exhibit 99.1 [THERMO LOGO] News FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact Information: Investor Contact Information: Lori Gorski Kenneth J. Apicerno Phone: 781-622-1242 Phone: 781-622-1111 E-mail: lori.gorski@thermo.com E-mail: ken.apicerno@thermo.com ---------------------- ----------------------- Website: www.thermo.com Thermo Electron Reports 25% Revenue Growth in Third Quarter 2005 Driven by New Products and Acquisitions WALTHAM, Mass., October 26, 2005 - Thermo Electron Corporation (NYSE: TMO) today reported that revenues grew 25% to $679 million in the third quarter of 2005, compared with $542 million in 2004, including a 20% increase from acquisitions and no effect from currency translation. GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $.35 in the 2005 quarter, compared with $.65 in the year-ago period (which included a gain of $.39 from discontinued operations). GAAP operating income in 2005 increased 4%, and GAAP operating margin was 9.1%, versus 11.0% in 2004, due primarily to amortization of intangibles and costs from previously announced integration actions related to recent acquisitions. Adjusted EPS grew 25% to $.40 in the third quarter of 2005, compared with $.32 in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted operating income increased 41%, and adjusted operating margin rose 160 basis points to 14.7%, versus 13.1% in 2004. Adjusted EPS, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin are non-GAAP measures that exclude certain items detailed at the end of this press release under the heading "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures." Third Quarter Highlights o Revenues grew 25% o Adjusted EPS increased 25% o Adjusted operating margin rose 160 basis points o Mass spectrometry portfolio greatly enhanced through new product developments and strategic acquisition o Point of Care diagnostics business divested at quarter end "We delivered another excellent quarter across the board, with significant growth in revenues, adjusted EPS and adjusted operating margin," said Marijn E. Dekkers, president and chief executive officer of Thermo Electron. "Our performance continues to be driven by the strength of new products and strategic acquisitions. "Our focused R&D investments have led to a number of new product offerings this year, especially in mass spectrometry, where we are the clear technology leader. Our breakthrough LTQ Orbitrap(TM) mass spectrometer introduced last quarter is already contributing to growth. In the third quarter, we introduced three more mass spectrometry systems that enhance a range of laboratory processes - from drug discovery to earth sciences and environmental analysis. In addition, our recent acquisition of Ionalytics Corporation further broadens our portfolio with complementary ion-separation technologies. "Our impressive results this quarter were also fueled by strategic acquisitions made earlier in the year - a record investment for Thermo that has created significant opportunities for growth. I'm pleased to report that we continue to make excellent progress with the integration of Kendro. In addition, we sold our Point of Care diagnostics business, which was not a strategic fit for the long term." Mr. Dekkers added, "Based on our expectations for the fourth quarter, we are raising the low end of our adjusted EPS guidance for the year, and now expect to report from $1.51 to $1.54 in 2005, an increase of 21 to 23% over last year's $1.25. We expect to report an 18 to 19% increase in revenues for the full year, in the range of $2.61 to $2.63 billion." (This adjusted EPS guidance, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes approximately $.11 of expense per quarter from the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets for acquisitions completed through the third quarter of 2005 and certain other items detailed at the end of this press release under the heading "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.") Life and Laboratory Sciences The Life and Laboratory Sciences segment reported a 35% revenue increase in the third quarter of 2005 to $516 million, versus $383 million in 2004. GAAP operating income for the segment increased 3% in the 2005 quarter, and GAAP operating margin was 10.9%, versus 14.2% a year ago. Adjusted operating income grew 42% in the 2005 period, and adjusted operating margin increased to 17.1%, compared with 16.2% in 2004. Measurement and Control Revenues in the Measurement and Control segment increased to $163 million in the third quarter of 2005, compared with $159 million a year ago. GAAP operating income for the segment was flat versus the year-ago period, and GAAP operating margin was 8.9%, compared with 9.1% last year. Adjusted operating income rose 14% in the 2005 period, and adjusted operating margin increased to 12.3%, from 11.1% in 2004. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EPS, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin, which exclude restructuring and other costs/income and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Adjusted EPS and adjusted operating income also exclude certain other gains and losses, tax provisions/benefits related to the previous items, benefits from tax credit carryforwards and the impact of the resolution of significant tax audits. We exclude the above items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods. We believe that the inclusion of such measures helps investors to gain a better understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the company's performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts. Specifically: We exclude costs and tax effects associated with restructuring activities, such as reducing overhead and consolidating facilities in connection with our recent Kendro acquisition. We believe that the costs related to these restructuring activities are not indicative of our normal operating costs. We exclude charges related to the sale of inventories revalued at the date of acquisition, as we believe these charges are not indicative of our normal operating costs. We exclude the expense and tax effects associated with the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have lives of 5 to 10 years. Exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies. We also exclude certain gains/losses and related tax effects, benefits from tax credit carryforwards and the impact of the resolution of significant tax audits, which are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any regularity or predictability and that we believe are not indicative of our normal operating gains and losses. We exclude gains/losses from the sale of our equity interests in Newport Corporation and Thoratec Corporation, as well as other items such as the sale of a business or real estate and the early retirement of debt. (We sold our remaining shares of Newport and Thoratec during the second quarter of 2005.) Thermo's management uses these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the company's core operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our competitors. Such measures are also used by management in their financial and operating decision-making and for compensation purposes. The non-GAAP financial measures of Thermo's results of operations included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for Thermo's results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the accompanying tables. Thermo's earnings guidance, however, is only provided on an adjusted basis. It is not feasible to provide GAAP EPS guidance because the items excluded, other than the amortization expense, are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events, such as the impact of accounting principles not yet adopted and decisions concerning the location and timing of facility consolidations.
