The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements represent the consolidated accounts of the Company. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, the financial information presented herein does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any other interim period or the full year.

At June 30, 2022, the Company’s significant accounting policies, which are detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, have not changed.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to its industry including, but not limited to, global economic conditions, (including increasing inflation), rapid technological change, government and academic funding levels, the impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus, geopolitical uncertainties, changes in commodity prices, spending patterns of its customers, protection of its intellectual property, availability of key raw materials and components and other supply chain challenges, compliance with existing and future regulation by government agencies and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.

The impact of the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic has been and will likely continue to be extensive in certain geographies and aspects of society. The pandemic has resulted in and will likely continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, global supply chains, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world.

Impacts to the Company’s business since the beginning of the pandemic have included temporary closures of many of the Company’s government and university customers and suppliers, disruptions or restrictions on employees’ and customers’ ability to travel, and delays in product installations or shipments to and from affected countries. In an effort to halt the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of countries, including the United States, implemented and some continue to implement, significant restrictions on travel, shelter in place or stay at home orders, and business closures. While many of these restrictions have loosened in certain jurisdictions, including the United States and Europe, some markets have returned and others may return to restrictions in the face of increases in new COVID-19 cases, particularly if additional or more contagious variants or subvariants of the virus emerge or spread. Many of the Company's employees in jurisdictions in which it has significant operations continue to work remotely. In addition, certain Asia Pacific geographies where the Company operates are continuing to experience significant COVID-19 disruptions, including extensive and sustained lockdowns. Much of the commercial activity in sales and marketing, and customer demonstrations and applications training, is still either being conducted remotely or postponed. Even where customers have re-opened their sites, some still operate at productivity levels that are below pre-pandemic levels in an effort to accommodate safety protocols and as a result of pandemic-related supply chain disruptions. Any resurgence of the virus or the emergence or spread of new variants or subvariants of the virus, particularly any variants or subvariants which are more easily transmitted or which are resistant to existing vaccines, may require the Company or its customers to close or partially close operations once again. These travel restrictions, business closures and operating reductions at Bruker, customers, distributors, and/or suppliers have in the past adversely impacted and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s operations worldwide, including the ability to manufacture, sell or distribute products, as well as cause temporary closures of foreign distributors, or the facilities of suppliers or customers. Global supply chains, including for semiconductor chips, components and raw materials such as copper, have been disrupted, causing shortages, which has impacted the Company’s ability to manufacture or supply its products. The Company could also experience increased compensation expenses associated with employee recruiting and employee retention to the extent employment opportunities continue to multiply post-pandemic, causing the search for and retention of talent to become more competitive. This disruption of the Company’s employees, distributors, suppliers and customers has impacted and is continuing to impact the Company’s global sales and operating results.

Further, while the Company is not currently subject to any vaccine mandate, any requirement to mandate COVID-19 vaccination of its workforce or require the Company’s unvaccinated employees to be tested weekly could result in employee attrition and difficulty securing future labor needs and may have an adverse effect on future operations. The Company's policy continues to encourage its employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

The Company is continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on commercial operations in 2022. However, the Company cannot at this time accurately predict what effects these conditions will ultimately have on future operations due to uncertainties relating to the duration of the outbreak, including the impact of any resurgence of the virus or the continued emergence or spread of certain variants or subvariants, the effectiveness and availability of vaccines, (including to protect against any new variants or subvariants), the willingness of individuals to receive vaccines and boosters, and the length or severity of travel restrictions, business closures and other safety and precautionary measures imposed by the governments of impacted countries. The pandemic has also adversely affected the economies and financial markets of many countries, which has affected and likely will continue to affect demand for the Company's products and its operating results.

9


 

The Company may experience supply chain interruptions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, general global economic conditions, including inflation and the threat of a potential recession, a tighter labor market and other factors including natural events and disasters. Various factors, including increased demand for certain components and production delays, are contributing to shortages of certain components used in the Company’s products and increased difficulties in the Company’s ability to obtain a consistent supply of materials at stable pricing levels. Supply shortages and longer lead times for components used in the Company’s products, including limited source components, has resulted and may continue to result in additional costs and inefficiencies in manufacturing. A shortage of key components has caused and may continue to cause disruptions to the Company’s production activities, which has had and may continue to have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. These factors have impacted and may continue to impact the timing of the Company's revenue, and have also resulted, and may result in a delay of revenue, and an increase in manufacturing costs, all of which have adversely impacted and may continue to adversely impact on the Company’s operating results.

Additionally, geopolitical tensions, such as Russia's ongoing incursion into Ukraine, ongoing conflicts between the United States and China, tariff and trade policy changes, economic sanctions, and increasing potential of conflict involving countries in Asia that are critical to the Company's supply chain operations, such as Taiwan and China, have resulted in increasing global tensions and create uncertainty for global commerce. In addition to experiencing adverse economic impacts resulting from economic sanctions on Russia, as well as the prospect of a reduction in natural gas exports from Russia and resulting market disruptions, such as higher prices for and reduced availability of key metals used in our products, the Company has largely suspended its Russian operations. Sustained or worsening global economic conditions and increasing inflation and geopolitical tensions have increased the Company's cost of doing business, impacted the Company's supply chain operations, caused certain of the Company's customers to reduce or delay spending and further intensified pricing pressures. Combined with increased inflation, potential energy shortages in Europe where we have significant operations and overall higher energy and transportation costs, these factors have affected and may continue to affect the Company's financial condition and result of operations.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis the Company evaluates estimates, judgments and methodologies. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that they believe are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity and the amount of revenues and expenses. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic, global supply chain interruptions, higher energy costs and shortages, the global economy, including inflation and the threat of recession, and geopolitical instability will directly or indirectly impact future business, results of operations and financial condition, including sales, expenses, reserves and allowances, manufacturing, research and development costs and employee-related amounts, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of new developments concerning the COVID-19 pandemic, global supply chain and various global conflicts. The Company has made estimates of the impact of COVID-19 within the financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods. Actual results may differ from management’s estimates if these results differ from historical experience.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. These transactions include: contract modifications, hedging relationships, and sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, to clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions under the reference rate reform guidance for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. Specifically, certain provisions in the reference rate reform guidance, if elected by an entity, apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. This temporary guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company may elect to apply this guidance for all contract modifications or eligible hedging relationships during that time period subject to certain criteria. The Company is still evaluating the impact of reference rate reform and whether this guidance will be adopted.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to a promise to transfer a good or service that is fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period. As of June 30, 2022, remaining performance obligations were approximately $2,082.3 million. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 76% of the remaining performance obligations over the next twelve months and the remaining performance obligations primarily within one to three years.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, note receivables and unbilled receivables (contract assets) and deferred revenue, customer deposits and billings in excess of revenue recognized (contract liabilities) on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Contract assets—Most of the Company’s long-term contracts are billed as work progresses in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of certain milestones. Billing often occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Contract assets are generally classified as other current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The balance of contract assets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $55.2 million and $46.1 million, respectively.

11


 

Contract liabilities—The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance, resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the timing of when revenue recognition is expected. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the contract liabilities were $434.1 million and $430.8 million, respectively. The increase in the contract liability balance during the six months ended June 30, 2022 is the result of new performance obligations entered into during the period and delays in certain instrument shipments due to supply chain and logistics challenges. Approximately $210.4 million of the contract liability balance on December 31, 2021 was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

4.
Acquisitions

The Company has not presented pro forma financial information reflecting all acquisitions has not been presented because the impact, individually and collectively, on revenues and net income is not material. The Company does not expect the amounts allocated to goodwill that are attributable to expected synergies to be deductible for tax purposes.

2022

PreOmics GmbH

On January 18, 2022, the Company acquired a 74.15% interest in PreOmics GmbH, (“PreOmics”), a privately held company, for a purchase price of EUR 46.1 million (approximately $52.1 million). PreOmics is a leading provider of sample preparation and automation solutions for proteomic analysis by mass spectrometry systems. PreOmics is located in Munich, Germany and was integrated into Bruker CALID Group within the BSI Life Science Segment.

Concurrent with the acquisition, the Company entered into an agreement with the noncontrolling interest holders that provides the Company with the right to purchase, and the noncontrolling interest holders with the right to sell, the remaining 25.85% of PreOmics for cash at a contractually defined redemption value for both the original founders and other shareholders of PreOmics, exercisable beginning in 2026. The fair value of these rights has been bifurcated into two financial instruments to separately account for the amounts attributable to the founders and the amount attributable to other shareholders.

The rights (embedded derivative) associated with the founders can be accelerated, at a discounted redemption value, upon certain events related to post combination employment services. As the options are tied to continued employment, the Company classified the hybrid instrument (noncontrolling interest with an embedded derivative) as a long-term liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The hybrid instrument associated with the founders is initially measured at fair value and subsequent to the acquisition, the carrying value of the hybrid instrument is remeasured to fair value with changes recorded to stock-based compensation expense in proportion to the requisite service period vested.

The rights associated with the other noncontrolling interest shareholders are contingently redeemable at the option of the other noncontrolling interest shareholders. As redemption of the rights is contingently redeemable at the option of the noncontrolling interest shareholders, the Company classifies the carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interest in the mezzanine section on the consolidated balance sheet, which is presented above the equity section and below liabilities. The redeemable noncontrolling interest is initially measured at fair value and subsequently at the greater of the amount that would be paid if settlement occurred as of the balance sheet date based on the contractually defined redemption value and its carrying amount adjusted for net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest. Adjustments to the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest are recorded through retained earnings.

The Company expects to complete the fair value allocation during the measurement period. The amortization period for the intangible assets acquired is nine years for technology, and twelve years for the trade name and customer relationships.

Optimal Industrial Automation and Technologies

The Company completed a share purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the outstanding stock of Optimal Industrial Technologies Limited ("OIT") and Optimal Industrial Automation Limited ("OIA"), collectively, "Optimal". The purchase price for the outstanding shares of Optimal was approximately GBP 30.7 million (approximately $40.3 million) with the potential for additional contingent consideration of up to GBP 3.4 million (approximately $4.5 million). Optimal is located in Bristol, England, and will be integrated into the Bruker BioSpin Group within the BSI Life Science Segment. The Company accounted for the purchase of Optimal under the acquisition method.

The preliminary fair value allocation for Optimal included contingent consideration in the amount of GBP 0.3 million (approximately $0.4 million), which represented the estimated fair value of future payments to the former shareholders of Optimal based on achieving revenue targets in 2022. The Company expects to complete the fair value allocation during the measurement period. The amortization period for the intangible assets acquired is ten years for the technology, twelve years and fourteen years for the customer relationships, and thirteen years for the trade names. The Company expects to amortize backlog through the second quarter of 2023.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of all debt agreements.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $148.9 million of U.S. to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $248.9 million of U.S. to Euro to hedge the variability in the movement of foreign currency exchange rates on portions of our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net asset investments. These agreements qualify for hedge accounting and accordingly the changes in fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and remain in accumulated comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Bruker Corporation in shareholders’ equity until the sale or substantial liquidation of the foreign operation. The difference between the interest rate received and paid under the interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements is recorded in interest and other income (expenses) in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. As a result of entering into these agreements, the Company lowered net interest expense by $1.6 million and $1.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and by $2.7 million during both the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company presents the cross-currency swap periodic settlements in investing activities and the interest rate swap periodic settlements in operating activities in the statement of cash flows.

Derivative financial instruments are classified within level 2 because there is not an active market for each derivative contract. However, the inputs used to calculate the value of the instruments are obtained from active markets.

The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Fair value treatment may be elected either upon initial recognition of an eligible asset or liability or, for an existing asset or liability, if an event triggers a new basis of accounting. The Company did not elect to remeasure any of its existing financial assets or liabilities and did not elect the fair value option for any financial assets or liabilities which originated during the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.

The fair value of the long-term fixed interest rate debt, classified as Level 2, was based on market and observable sources with similar maturity dates. The carrying value of the Company's variable rate debt approximates its fair value at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its short-term investments to determine if there have been any events that could indicate an impairment. There were none noted for the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.

Debt securities consist of investments in redeemable preferred stock. Debt securities are classified as either current or long-term investments based on their contractual maturities unless the Company intends to sell an investment within the next twelve months, in which case it is classified as current on the consolidated balance sheets. Debt securities are classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value.

Contingent consideration recorded within other current and other long-term liabilities represents the estimated fair value of future payments to the former shareholders as part of certain acquisitions. The contingent consideration is primarily based on the applicable acquired company achieving annual revenue and gross margin targets in certain years as specified in the relevant purchase and sale agreement. The Company initially values the contingent consideration on the acquisition date by using a Monte Carlo simulation or an income approach method. The Monte Carlo method models future revenue and costs of goods sold projections and discounts the average results to present value. The income approach method involves calculating the earnout payment based on the forecasted cash flows, adjusting the future earnout payment for the risk of reaching the projected financials, and then discounting the future payments to present value by the counterparty risk. The counterparty risk considers the risk of the buyer having the cash to make the earnout payments and is commensurate with a cost of debt over an appropriate term.

As part of the 2018 Mestrelab Research, S.L. ("Mestrelab") and 2022 PreOmics GmbH acquisitions, the Company entered into agreements with the noncontrolling interest holders that provide the Company with the right to purchase, and the noncontrolling interest holders with the right to sell, the remaining ownerships for cash at contractually defined redemption values. These rights (embedded derivatives) can be accelerated, at discounted redemption values, upon certain events related to post combination services. As the options are tied to continued employment, the Company classified the hybrid instruments (noncontrolling interests with embedded derivatives) as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Subsequent to the acquisitions, the carrying value of the hybrid instruments are remeasured to fair value with changes recorded to stock-based compensation expense in proportion to the respective requisite service period vested. The Company classified the hybrid instruments as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Commodity Price Risk Management

The Company has arrangements with certain customers under which it has a firm commitment to deliver copper-based superconductors at a fixed price. In order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in the price of copper have on the Company’s sales of these commodities, the Company enters into commodity hedge contracts. As commodity contracts settle, gains (losses) as a result of changes in fair values are adjusted to the contracts with the customers through revenues.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk Management

The Company had the following notional amounts outstanding under foreign exchange contracts, cross-currency interest rate swap agreements and long-term debt designated as net investment hedges (in millions) and the respective fair value of the instruments recorded in the consolidated balance sheets as follows (in millions):

In addition, the Company periodically enters into purchase and sales contracts denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the parties to the transaction. The Company accounts for these transactions separately valuing the “embedded derivative” component of these contracts. The contracts, denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the transacting parties, amounted to $11.0 million and $8.5 million for the purchase of products at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company records the changes in the fair value of these embedded derivatives in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, calculated using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to be reflected in the tax return. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In addition, the Company accounts for uncertain tax positions that have reached a minimum recognition threshold.

The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $19.9 million and $21.3 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 28.6% and 26.6%, respectively. The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $51.8 million and $48.8 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 31.7% and 29.5%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of U.S. legislation that became effective as of January 1, 2022 limiting the deductibility of research and development expenses and the benefit relating to foreign tax credits, and impact of Mutual Agreement Procedures ("MAP") resolution. The Company’s effective tax rate may change over time as the amount or mix of income and tax changes among the jurisdictions in which the Company is subject to tax.

20


 

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding penalties and interest, of approximately $49.8 million and $51.4 million, respectively, which, if recognized, would result in a reduction of the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company recognizes penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately $3.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively, of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions and were included in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Penalties and interest of $0.2 million were recorded in the provision for income taxes for unrecognized tax benefits during both of the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Penalties and interest of $0.7 million and $0.3 million were recorded in the provision for income taxes for unrecognized tax benefits during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Company has been subject to a tax examination in Germany for the years 2009 through 2012 whereby the German tax authorities had imposed additional tax assessments for those years. Due to the nature of the additional tax assessments, the Company filed for competent authority relief from those assessments under MAP of the United States-Germany income tax treaty. A final resolution has been reached with the respective tax authorities in Germany and the United States during the first quarter of 2022 and the liability was paid in the second quarter of 2022.

The Company files tax returns in the United States, which include federal, state and local jurisdictions, and many foreign jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The Company considers Germany, the United States and Switzerland to be its significant tax jurisdictions. The majority of the Company’s earnings are derived in Germany and Switzerland. Accounting for the various federal and local taxing authorities, the statutory rates for 2022 are approximately 30.0% and 20.0% for Germany and Switzerland, respectively. The mix of earnings in those two jurisdictions resulted in an increase of 5.3% from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Commitments and Contingencies

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 450, Contingencies, the Company accrues anticipated costs of settlement, damages or other costs to the extent specific losses are probable and estimable.

Litigation and Related Contingencies

Lawsuits, claims and proceedings of a nature considered normal to its businesses may be pending from time to time against the Company. Third parties might allege that the Company or its collaborators are infringing their patent rights or that the Company is otherwise violating their intellectual property rights. The Company believes the outcome of pending proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On September 25, 2019, in a complaint filed in the District Court of Düsseldorf, Germany, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, a subsidiary of Carl Zeiss AG (Zeiss), sued Luxendo GmbH (Luxendo), a subsidiary of Bruker Corporation, for infringement of a registered German utility model patent licensed to Zeiss pertaining to one specific Luxendo product category. Zeiss is seeking injunctive relief, an accounting indemnification for damages resulting from infringement, and other related remedies. The Company is vigorously defending against this claim.

In addition, the Company is subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which the Company operates. From time to time, the Company is the subject of governmental investigations often involving regulatory, marketing and other business practices. These governmental investigations may result in the commencement of civil and criminal proceedings, fines, penalties and administrative remedies which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has not recorded any material accruals for potential contingencies.

Non-GAAP Measures

Although our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), we believe describing revenue and expenses, excluding the effects of foreign currency, acquisitions and divestitures, as well as certain other charges, net, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. We rely internally on certain measures that are not calculated according to GAAP. These measures are organic revenue, free cash flow, non-GAAP gross profit margin and non-GAAP operating margin. Our management believes that these financial measures provide relevant and useful information that is widely used by equity analysts, investors and competitors in our industry, as well as by our management, in assessing both consolidated and business unit performance. We define the term organic revenue as GAAP revenue excluding the effect of foreign currency translation changes and the effect of acquisitions and divestitures. We define the term non-GAAP gross profit margin as GAAP gross profit margin with certain non-GAAP measures excluded and non-GAAP operating margin as GAAP operating margin with certain non-GAAP measures excluded. These non-GAAP measures exclude costs related to restructuring actions, acquisition and related integration expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, costs associated with our global information technology transition initiatives, and other non-operational costs and we believe these are useful measures to evaluate our continuing business.

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant, and equipment. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure to evaluate our business as it indicates the amount of cash generated after additions to property, plant, and equipment which is available for, among other things, investments in our business, acquisitions, share repurchases, dividends and repayment of debt. We regularly use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage, and evaluate our business results and make operating decisions. We also measure our employees and compensate them, in part, based on such non-GAAP measures and use this information for our planning and forecasting activities. These measures may also be useful to investors in evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and therefore, may not be comparable among companies.

OVERVIEW

We are a developer, manufacturer and distributor of high-performance scientific instruments and analytical and diagnostic solutions that enable our customers to explore life and materials at microscopic, molecular and cellular levels. Our corporate headquarters are located in Billerica, Massachusetts. We maintain major technical and manufacturing centers in Europe, Asia and North America and we have sales offices located throughout the world. Bruker is organized into three reportable segments: the BSI Life Science segment (comprised of the Bruker BioSpin Group and the Bruker CALID Group), the BSI Nano segment and the Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies (BEST) segment.

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $17.6 million, or 3.1%, to $588.4 million, compared to $570.8 million for the comparable period in 2021. Included in revenue was a decrease of approximately $41.8 million from unfavorable foreign exchange rate movements, offset by an increase of $9.3 million from acquisitions. Excluding the unfavorable effects of foreign exchange rate movements and our recent acquisitions, our organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, increased $50.1 million. Revenue increases were driven by strong demand for our differentiated high-value scientific instruments and life science solutions compared to the same period in 2021.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $57.9 million, or 5.1% to $1,183.4 million, compared to $1,125.5 million for the comparable period in 2021. Included in revenue was a decrease of approximately $65.5 million from unfavorable foreign exchange rate movements, offset by an increase of $15.1 million from acquisitions. Excluding the unfavorable effects of foreign exchange rate movements and our recent acquisitions, our organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, increased $108.3 million. Revenue increases were driven by strong demand for our differentiated high-value scientific instruments and life science solutions compared to the same period in 2021.

Our gross profit margin increased to 50.7% during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to 49.2% in the same period in 2021, the result of higher revenue and favorable mix, volume leverage and net favorable impact of foreign exchange rate movements, partially offset by supply chain and logistics challenges compared to 2021.

Our gross profit margin increased to 51.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to 49.7% in the same period in 2021, the result of higher revenue and favorable mix, volume leverage and net favorable impact of foreign exchange rate movements, partially offset by supply chain and logistics challenges compared to 2021.

Our income tax provision in the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $19.9 million and $21.3 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 28.6% and 26.6%, respectively. Our income tax provision in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $51.8 million and $48.8 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 31.7% and 29.5%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of U.S. tax legislation that became effective in 2022 limiting the deductibility of research and development expenses and the benefit relating to foreign tax credits and the resolution of the United States-Germany Mutual Agreement Procedures tax audit.

Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.33, a decrease of $0.05 compared to $0.38 per share in the same period in 2021. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.74, a decrease of $0.01 compared to $0.75 per share in the same period in 2021. The decrease in diluted earnings per share in both the three months and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by lower net income and from acquisition related hybrid instrument liability adjustments recognized during the periods.

Our non-GAAP operating margin was 16.6% and 17.3% in the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our non-GAAP operating margin was 18.0% and 17.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our non-GAAP operating margin decreased in 2022 due to increased investments in sales and marketing and in our research and development capabilities, as compared to 2021.

We can experience quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in our operating results as a result of various factors, some of which are outside our control, such as:

the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic, inflation, the threat of recession and geopolitical tensions on our customers, supply chain or manufacturing capabilities;
the impact of certain weather-related disruptions;
the timing of governmental stimulus programs and academic research budgets;
the time it takes between the date customer orders and deposits are received, systems are shipped and accepted by our customers and full payment is received;
foreign currency exchange rates;
the time it takes for us to receive critical materials to manufacture our products;
general economic conditions, including the impact of COVID-19 or other factors on the global economy;
the time it takes to satisfy local customs requirements and other export/import requirements;
the time it takes for customers to construct or prepare their facilities for our products; and
the time required to obtain governmental licenses.

28


 

Several of these factors have in the past affected and continue to affect the amount and timing of revenue recognized on sales of our products and receipt of related payments and will likely continue to do so in the future. Accordingly, our operating results in any particular quarter may not necessarily be an indication of any future quarter’s operating performance. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to present a challenging operating environment. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been focused on and continue to focus on three key priorities: the health and safety of our employees, customers and partners; maintaining business continuity and service levels for our customers; and delivering enabling research and diagnostic products to help fight the pandemic, and to support other essential priorities of our society.

Health and safety of our valued employees, customers and partners

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we implemented strict social distancing, enhanced cleaning protocols and other preventative measures, in our major facilities to ensure the health and safety of our valued employees, customers and partners. While many of our office colleagues worked remotely at the height of the pandemic and through subsequent surges, we placed enhanced focus on the safety of our service organization and factory employees for whom work from home was not feasible. Where customer sites were accessible and open, our field service organizations operated under social distancing protocols with proper face coverings to ensure the safety of customer sites, when our employees needed to be on site. Consistent with local government and health organization guidelines, many of our facilities have started a gradual return to the office for employees who have been working remotely. As we continue to monitor developments and make appropriate adjustments, as needed, employee and visitor health and safety will remain our paramount concern.

Maintaining business continuity and service levels to our customers

Ensuring our ability to supply our enabling technologies and solutions and maintaining high service levels for our customers is another top priority for Bruker. In late March and during parts of April 2020, several of our manufacturing sites underwent temporary controlled shutdowns or were operating at reduced capacity to implement new safety protocols, comply with local rules, and manage cost and inventory levels. These sites thereafter ramped back up with expanding capacity and productivity levels. However, with any resurgence of the virus or the emergence of additional variants and subvariants, particularly those that are resistant to existing vaccines, we may again need to consider temporary controlled shutdowns or reduced capacity measures. In addition, we are continuing capital investments in production facilities for efficiencies and expansion. We continue to encounter supply chain risks associated with the pandemic, the global economy, including inflation and the threat of recession and geopolitical tensions, and the worldwide shortage of semiconductor chips, components and raw materials, such as copper.

Delivering enabling research and diagnostic products to help fight the pandemic and to support other essential priorities of our society

Bruker is providing critical technologies and solutions to help combat the COVID-19 pandemic, most notably our Microbiology and infectious disease diagnostics portfolio and our nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry systems which are used in critical disease, therapeutic and vaccine research.

The COVID-19 global pandemic has driven volatility and uncertainty in global markets and has in the past affected our operations significantly. We continue to work to manage the impact of COVID-19 on our operations; however, the full extent to which any resurgence of the virus, the emergence of any new variants and subvariants, or the availability and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines will impact our business, directly or indirectly, cannot accurately be predicted at this time. We continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on our business and our supply chain and respond accordingly.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to: revenue recognition; stock-based compensation expense; restructuring and other related charges; income taxes, including the recoverability of deferred tax assets; allowances for doubtful accounts; inventory reductions for excess and obsolete inventories; estimated fair values of long-lived assets used to measure the recoverability of long-lived assets; intangible assets and goodwill; expected future cash flows used to measure the recoverability of intangible assets and long-lived assets; warranty costs; derivative financial instruments; and contingent liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on our historical experience, current market and economic conditions, industry trends, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable and form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies and estimates to be both those most important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and those that require the most estimation and subjective judgment:

Revenue recognition;
Income taxes;
Inventories;
Goodwill, other intangible assets and other long-lived assets; and
Business combinations.

For a further discussion of our critical accounting policies, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Revenue

Revenue increases were driven by strong demand for our differentiated instruments and solutions offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation. The BioSpin Group revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $159.8 million, an increase of 7.6% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase related primarily to the revenue recognition of an ultra-high-field NMR system as well as from services and support. The CALID Group revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $190.3 million, a slight decrease of 1.6% compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in revenues was a direct result of supply chain constraints. BSI Nano revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $182.2 million, an increase of 3.9% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in BSI Nano revenue was driven by strong demand in its industrial and semiconductor metrology markets. The BEST revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $59.2 million, an increase of 4.6% compared to the same period in 2021, driven by strong superconductor demand from our magnetic resonance imaging original equipment manufacturer customers.

Geographically in the second quarter 2022, our North American revenue grew 10.4%, Asia Pacific increased by 14.9%, while European revenue declined by 8.3% compared to the same period in 2021.

Gross Profit

The increase in gross profit in the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, was a result of higher revenue and favorable mix, volume leverage and net favorable impact of foreign exchange rate movements, partially offset by supply chain and logistics challenges and inflationary margin challenges compared to 2021.

31


 

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased to 25.9% of total revenue, from 23.6% of total revenue for the comparable period in 2021. The increase as a percentage of revenue was a result of certain sales and marketing investments and driven by higher freight, logistics and commission costs.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased to 10.1% of total revenue from 9.8% of total revenue for the comparable period in 2021. The increase as a percentage of revenue is a result of our increased investment in research and development capabilities period over period in addition to the impact of supply chain constraints on total revenues in the period.

Other Charges, Net

Other charges, net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 consisted of $8.3 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2022 and 2021, $2.5 million of restructuring costs, $1.5 million of costs associated with our global information technology (IT) transformation activities, and $0.2 million of other charges. The IT transformation initiative is a multi-year project aimed at updating and integrating our global enterprise resource planning and human resource information systems.

Other charges, net for the three months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of $2.3 million of acquisition-related charges to acquisitions completed in 2021 and 2020, $1.4 million of restructuring costs, $0.8 million of costs associated with our global IT transformation activities offset by a $0.1 million adjustment of other charges.

Operating Income

The decrease in operating income was due to higher gross profit resulting from differentiated instruments and solutions offset by certain sales and marketing investments and investments research and development capabilities.

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

The decline in interest and other income (expense), net in the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to lower foreign currency exchange losses driven by strengthening of the U.S. dollars against other currencies.

Income Tax Provision

The 2022 and 2021 effective tax rates were estimated using projected annual pre-tax income on a jurisdictional basis. Expected tax benefits, including tax credits and incentives, the impact of changes to valuation allowances and the effect of jurisdictional differences in statutory tax rates were also considered in the calculation.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were 28.6% and 26.6%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of U.S. tax legislation that became effective 2022 limiting the deductibility of research and development expenses and the benefit relating to foreign tax credits and the resolution of the United States-Germany Mutual Agreement Procedures tax audit.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represented the minority shareholders’ proportionate share of the net income recorded by our majority-owned subsidiaries.

Represents product and service revenue between reportable segments.

For financial reporting purposes, we aggregate the Bruker BioSpin Group and Bruker CALID Group as the BSI Life Science segment. This aggregation reflects the similar economic characteristics, production processes, customer services provided, types and classes of customers, methods of distribution and regulatory environments.

The increase in revenue for the BSI Life Science segment in the three months ended June 30, 2022 was due to strong demand, business and end market recovery, and was led by recognition of an ultra-high-field NMR system as well as from services and support offset by supply chain constraints. The increase in revenue for the BSI Nano segment was driven by strong demand in industrial research and semiconductor customers. The increase in revenue for the BEST segment resulted from strong superconductor demand by our magnetic resonance imaging original equipment manufacturer customers.

The operating margin decreases in the BSI Life Science and BSI Nano segments was primarily due to higher gross margin resulting from higher revenue and favorable mix, volume leverage and net favorable impact of foreign exchange rate movements offset by planned sales and marketing investments, supply chain and logistics challenges and inflationary margin challenges in 2022, as compared to 2021, and investments in research and development capabilities. The operating margin decrease in the BEST segment resulted from inflationary margin challenges in 2022, as compared to 2021.

Revenue

Revenue increases were driven by strong demand for our differentiated instruments and solutions offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation. The BioSpin Group revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $317.6 million, an increase of 3.2% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was driven by strong growth in the applied markets. The CALID Group revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $393.5 million, a slight increase of 2.0% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in revenues was a direct result of strong growth in life science mass spectrometry and microbiology aftermarket business, but also impacted by supply chain constraints. BSI Nano revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $360.7 million, an increase of 9.4% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in BSI Nano revenue was driven by strong demand in its industrial and semiconductor metrology markets. The BEST revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $118.9 million, an increase of 9.1% compared to the same period in 2021, driven by strong superconductor demand from major medical magnetic resonance imaging manufacturers.

Geographically in the six months ended June 30, 2022, our North American revenue grew 19.8%, Asia Pacific increased by 9.3%, while European revenue declined by 8.3% compared to the same period in 2021.

Gross Profit

The increase in gross profit in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, was a result of higher revenue and favorable mix, volume leverage and net favorable impact of foreign exchange rate movements, partially offset by supply chain and logistics challenges and inflationary margin challenges compared to 2021.

34


 

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased to 25.2% of total revenue, from 23.7% of total revenue for the comparable period in 2021. The increase as a percentage of revenue was a result of investments in our commercial infrastructure and driven by higher freight, logistics and commission costs.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 9.8% equal to the same period in 2021. The consistent percentage relates to higher overall revenues in addition to our increased investment in research and development capabilities period over period.

Other Charges, Net

Other charges, net for the six months ended June 30, 2022 consisted of $13.4 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2022 and 2021, $2.8 million of restructuring costs, $2.5 million of costs associated with our global information technology (IT) transformation activities, $0.8 million of other charges, and $0.5 million related to suspension of operations in Russia.

Other charges, net for the six months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of $3.2 million of acquisition-related charges to acquisitions completed in 2021 and 2020, $2.7 million of restructuring costs and $1.5 million of costs associated with our global IT transformation activities.

Operating Income

The decrease in operating income was due to higher gross profit resulting from higher revenue and favorable mix, volume leverage and net favorable impact of foreign exchange rate movements offset by planned sales and marketing investments, supply chain and logistics challenges and inflationary margin challenges in 2022, as compared to 2021, and investments in research and development capabilities.

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

The decline in interest and other income (expense), net in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to increased interest expense on our 2021 Note Purchase Agreement offset by lower foreign currency exchange losses driven by strengthening of the U.S. dollars against other currencies as well as unrealized gains from investments at cost.

Income Tax Provision

The 2022 and 2021 effective tax rates were estimated using projected annual pre-tax income on a jurisdictional basis. Expected tax benefits, including tax credits and incentives, the impact of changes to valuation allowances and the effect of jurisdictional differences in statutory tax rates were also considered in the calculation.

The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were 31.7% and 29.5% respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of U.S. tax legislation that became effective in 2022 limiting the deductibility of research and development expenses and the benefit relating to foreign tax credits and the resolution of the United States-Germany Mutual Agreement Procedures tax audit.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represented the minority shareholders’ proportionate share of the net income recorded by our majority-owned subsidiaries.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We anticipate that our existing cash and credit facilities will be sufficient to support our operating and investing needs for at least the next twelve months. Our future cash requirements could be affected by acquisitions that we may complete, purchases of our common stock or the payment of dividends in the future. Historically, we have financed our growth and liquidity needs through cash flow generation from operations and a combination of debt financings and issuances of common stock. In the future, there are no assurances that we will continue to generate cash flow from operations or that additional financing alternatives will be available to us, if required, or if available, will be obtained on terms favorable to us.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaled $723.0 million and $1,168.2 million, respectively, of which $561.3 million and $646.9 million, respectively, related to cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments held outside of the U.S. in our foreign subsidiaries, most significantly in the Netherlands, Switzerland and Hong Kong.

Cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 resulted primarily from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $168.5 million, partially offset by a change in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $135.1 million. The decrease was primarily due to strategic inventory management to handle supply chain challenges, timing of tax payments partially offset by customer advances received during the period related to new orders and deferral of revenue due to supply chain challenges. Cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 resulted from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $185.1 million, partially offset by a change in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $65.2 million. The primary increase is a result of increased net income driven by the increase in revenue, gross profit and operating profit as a result of the rebounding in our business and end markets. The decrease in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to improved inventory management, higher payables and accrued liabilities partially offset by a decrease in cash received from customers due to timing of payments as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 resulted primarily from acquisitions of $85.4 million, purchases of property, plant and equipment of $36.9 million, and strategic investments of $38.1 million, offset by maturity of short-term investments of $100.0 million and $13.8 million of net proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 resulted mainly from purchases of property, plant and equipment of $47.3 million, purchases of short-term investments of $48.0 million and acquisitions of $4.0 million.

Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily from cash paid for purchases of common stock under our repurchase program of $165.9 million, repayment of our 2012 Note Purchase Agreement of $105.0 million and $15.0 million for the payment of dividends. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily from cash paid for purchases of common stock under our repurchase program of $71.1 million and $12.1 million for the payment of dividends.

Share Repurchase Program

In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved our share repurchase program (the “2019 Repurchase Program”) under which repurchases of common stock in the amount of up to $300.0 million were authorized to occur from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as we deem appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we purchased 24,873 shares at an aggregate cost of $1.7 million under the 2019 Repurchase Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we purchased a total of 555,602 shares at an aggregate cost of $34.5 million under the 2019 Repurchase Program. We completed the 2019 Repurchase Program in April 2021, after reaching the maximum cumulative spend.

In May 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (the “2021 Repurchase Program”) authorizing the purchase of up to $500.0 million of our common stock over a two-year period from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as we deem appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we purchased 983,741 shares at an aggregate cost of $60.3 million under the 2021 Repurchase Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we purchased a total of 2,586,796 shares at an aggregate cost of $165.9 million under the 2021 Repurchase Program. We purchased a total of 530,703 shares with an aggregate cost of $36.6 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 under the 2021 Repurchase Program. At June 30, 2022, $215.3 million remained for future purchase under the 2021 Repurchase Program. We intend to fund any additional repurchases from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The purchased shares are reflected within Treasury stock in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Credit Facilities

On December 7, 2021, we entered into a note purchase agreement to issue and sell CHF 300 million aggregate principal amount of 0.88% series A senior notes and EUR 150 million aggregate principal amount of 1.03% series B senior notes due December 8, 2031. We designated our CHF 300 million series A senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our Swiss Franc denominated net assets. We designated our EUR 150 million series B senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our EUR denominated net assets. Proceeds of the notes will be used for general corporate purposes.

On December 11, 2019, we entered into (1) a new revolving credit agreement to establish a new revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $600 million; (2) a term loan agreement to establish a new term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $300 million; and (3) a note purchase agreement to issue and sell CHF 297 million aggregate principal amount of 1.01% senior notes due December 11, 2029. Floating interest rates under the term loan were simultaneously fixed through cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements into Euro ($150 million) and Swiss Franc ($150 million) rates carrying average effective interest rates of 0.94% and hedge our net investment in our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net assets.

In addition, we designated our CHF 297 million senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our Swiss Franc denominated net assets. Proceeds from this financing were used to repay the outstanding borrowings under our prior 2015 revolving credit facility and we intend to use the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes and to support corporate strategic objectives. During December 2019, we entered into U.S. Dollar to Euro cross-currency swaps on our existing 2012 private placement notes of $105 million 4.31% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche C, repaid in January 2022, and the existing $100 million of 4.46% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche D, due January 18, 2024, resulting in an average effective interest rate of 2.25% on these instruments. The cross-currency swaps hedge our net investment in our Euro denominated net assets.

As of June 30, 2022, we have several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $148.9 million of U.S. to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $248.9 million of U.S. to Euro to hedge the variability in the movement of foreign currency exchange rates on portions of our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net asset investments. As a result of entering into these agreements, the Company lowered net interest expense by $1.6 million and $1.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $2.7 million during each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We anticipate these swap agreements will lower net interest expense in future years.

We generate a substantial portion of our revenues in international markets, principally Germany and other countries in the European Union, Switzerland and Japan, which exposes our operations to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. Our costs related to sales in foreign currencies are largely denominated in the same respective currencies, reducing our transaction risk exposure. However, for foreign currency denominated sales in certain regions, such as Japan, where we do not incur significant costs denominated in Japanese Yen, we are more exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

For sales not denominated in U.S. dollars, if there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it will require more of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases, if we price our products in the foreign currency, we will receive less in U.S. dollars than we would have received before the rate increase went into effect. If we price our products in U.S. dollars and competitors price their products in local currency, an increase in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar could result in our prices not being competitive in a market where business is transacted in the local currency. For example, if the U.S. dollar strengthened against the Japanese Yen, our Japanese-based competitors would have a greater pricing advantage over us.

Changes in foreign currency translation rates decreased our revenue by 7.3% and increased our revenue by 6.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Changes in foreign currency translation rates decreased our revenue by 5.8% and increased our revenue by 6.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries, where the functional currency is the local currency, are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the year. Adjustments resulting from financial statement translations are included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net gains (losses) from currency translation adjustments of $(76.9) million and $14.3 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net losses from foreign currency translation of $(107.4) million and $(53.6) million, respectively. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are reported in interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

We periodically enter into forward currency contracts in order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in currency translation have on our monetary transactions. Under these arrangements, we typically agree to purchase a fixed amount of a foreign currency in exchange for a fixed amount of U.S. dollars or other currencies on specified dates with maturities of less than twelve months, with some agreements extending to longer periods. These transactions do not qualify for hedge accounting and, accordingly, the instrument is recorded at fair value with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

As of June 30, 2022, we have several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $148.9 million of U.S. dollar to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $248.9 million of U.S. dollar to Euro to hedge the variability in the movement of foreign currency exchange rates on portions of our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net asset investments. Under the GAAP hedge accounting guidance, changes in fair value of the derivative that relates to changes in the foreign currency spot rate are recorded in the currency translation adjustment in comprehensive income (loss) and remain in accumulated comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity until the sale or substantial liquidation of the foreign operation. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net gains from the changes in fair value of the derivatives of $18.0 million and net gains of $1.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net gains from the changes in fair value of the derivatives of $30.1 million and $28.8 million, respectively.

On December 7, 2021, we entered into a note purchase agreement, referred to as the 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, with a group of institutional accredited investors. Pursuant to the 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, we issued and sold CHF 300 million aggregate principal amount of 0.88% series A senior notes and EUR 150 million aggregate principal amount of 1.03% series B senior notes due December 8, 2031. We designated our CHF 300 million series A senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our Swiss Franc denominated net assets. We designated our EUR 150 million series B senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our Euro

40


 

denominated net assets. Accordingly, the change in fair value of the 2021 Note Purchase Agreement is recorded in other comprehensive income within derivatives designated as hedging instruments, net of tax.

On December 11, 2019, we entered into a note purchase agreement, referred to as the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement, with a group of institutional accredited investors. Pursuant to the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement, we issued and sold CHF 297 million aggregate principal amount of 1.01% senior notes due December 11, 2029. We designated our CHF 297 million senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our Swiss Franc denominated net assets. Accordingly, the change in fair value of the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement is recorded in other comprehensive income within derivatives designated as hedging instruments, net of tax.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net gains (losses) from the changes in fair value, net of tax, of the 2021 Note Purchase Agreement and the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement of $23.5 million and $(0.7) million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net gains (losses) from the change in fair value, net of tax, of the 2021 Note Purchase Agreement and the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement of $32.5 million and $20.0 million, respectively.

From time to time, we have entered into forward exchange contracts designed to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in foreign currency have on our cash flows related to purchases and sales denominated in foreign currencies. Under these arrangements, we agree to purchase a fixed amount of a foreign currency in exchange for a fixed amount of U.S. dollars or other currencies on specified dates typically with maturities of less than twelve months with some agreements extending to longer periods. These transactions are recorded at fair value with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts aggregating $130.3 million and $180.7 million, respectively. We will continue to evaluate our currency risks and in the future may utilize foreign currency contracts more frequently.

Interest Rate Risk

We regularly invest excess cash in short-term investments that are subject to changes in interest rates. We believe that the market risk arising from holding these financial instruments is minimal because of our policy of investing in short-term financial instruments issued by highly rated financial institutions.

Our exposure related to adverse movements in interest rates is derived primarily from outstanding floating rate debt instruments that are indexed to short-term market rates. We currently have a higher level of fixed rate debt than variable rate debt, which limits the exposure to adverse movements in interest rates.

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to certain commodity risks associated with prices for various raw materials. The prices of copper and certain other raw materials, particularly niobium-tin, used to manufacture superconductors, have increased significantly over the last decade. Copper and niobium-tin are the main components of low temperature superconductors and continued commodity price increases for copper and niobium, as well as other raw materials, may negatively affect our profitability. Periodically, we enter into commodity forward purchase contracts to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in the price of copper have on our sales of these products. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $9.0 million and $5.5 million, respectively. The fair value of the fixed price commodity contracts at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $(1.0) million and $0.4 million, respectively. As commodity contracts settle, gains (losses) as a result of changes in fair values are adjusted to the contracts with the customers through revenues. We will continue to evaluate our commodity risks and may utilize commodity forward purchase contracts more frequently in the future.

Inflation Risk

We are subject to inflationary cost pressures across global supply chain networks. Certain components, parts, or materials are experiencing significant cost pressures that have impacted or may impact our cost of operations in future periods. Further, inflation has increased our general and administrative expenses and may vary between countries in which we operate. We continue to evaluate these cost increases in relation to our new orders and may continue to see a negative impact on our financial results for a period of time.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act)) that are designed to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) by others within our organization. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2022.

Management concluded that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly state, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

We are involved in lawsuits, claims, and proceedings, including, but not limited to, patent and commercial matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business. There are no such matters pending that we currently believe are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our business or to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

On September 25, 2019, in a complaint filed in the District Court of Düsseldorf, Germany, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, a subsidiary of Carl Zeiss AG (Zeiss), sued Luxendo GmbH (Luxendo), a subsidiary of Bruker Corporation, for infringement of a registered German utility model patent licensed to Zeiss pertaining to one specific Luxendo product category. Zeiss is seeking injunctive relief, an accounting indemnification for damages resulting from infringement, and other, related remedies. We are vigorously defending against this claim.

In addition, we are subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which we operate. From time to time, we are the subject of governmental investigations often involving regulatory, marketing and other business practices. These governmental investigations may result in the commencement of civil and criminal proceedings, fines, penalties and administrative remedies which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity.

ITEM IA. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks 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.
