BROOKS AUTOMATION, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Brooks Automation, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Brooks” or the “Company”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments which are of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented have been reflected. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted and, accordingly, the accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 (the "2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K").
Recently Enacted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an amendment to the accounting guidance for presentation of comprehensive income. Under the amended guidance, a company may present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This authoritative guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. On October 1, 2012 the Company adopted this guidance and elected to present two separate but consecutive statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional details about those amounts. On January 1, 2013 the Company adopted this standard, which had no impact on its financial position or results of operations.
2. Stock-Based Compensation
    
The Company may issue stock options and restricted stock, which vest upon the satisfaction of a performance condition and/or a service condition. In addition, the Company issues shares pursuant to an employee stock purchase plan.
The following table reflects stock-based compensation expense recorded during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):

The fair value per share of restricted stock is equal to the quoted price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, net of estimated forfeitures. In addition, for stock-based awards where vesting is dependent upon achieving certain operating performance goals, the Company estimates the likelihood of achieving the performance goals. Actual results, and future changes in estimates, may differ substantially from the Company’s current estimates.
During the three months ended December 31, 2012, March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, the Company granted 1,183,500 shares, 40,500 shares and 60,000 shares, respectively, of restricted stock to members of senior management of which 524,250 shares, 22,375 shares and 60,000 shares, respectively, vest over the service period and the remaining 659,250 shares, 18,125 shares, and 0 shares, respectively, vest upon the achievement of certain financial performance goals which will be measured at the end of fiscal year 2013. Total compensation expense on these awards is a maximum of $14.0 million, net of cancellations. During the three months ended December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, the Company granted 1,377,000 shares

Table of Contents


and 150,000 shares, respectively, of restricted stock to members of senior management of which 369,250 shares and 37,500 shares, respectively, vest over the service period and the remaining 1,007,750 shares and 112,500 shares, respectively, vest upon the achievement of certain financial performance goals which will be measured at the end of fiscal year 2014. Total compensation expense on these awards is a maximum of $15.1 million, net of cancellations. Awards subject to service criteria are being recorded to expense ratably over the vesting period. Awards subject to performance criteria are expensed over the related service period when attainment of the performance condition is considered probable. The total amount of compensation recorded will depend on the Company’s achievement against performance targets. Changes to the projected attainment against performance targets during the vesting period may result in an adjustment to the amount of cumulative compensation recorded as of the date the estimate is revised.
During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer was granted an award of 100,000 cash settled phantom units, which are subject to the same vesting terms as the performance-based restricted stock units granted in the three months ended December 31, 2011. The Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 includes a liability of approximately $0 and $78,000, respectively, for this potential cash payment. The Company incurred an expense of $(155,000) and $10,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, in connection with the cash settled phantom unit award. The Company incurred an expense of $(78,000) and $93,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, in connection with the cash settled phantom unit award.

products and services. The purchase price was allocated based upon the fair value of the identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date from a market participant’s perspective.
The Company used the relief-from-royalty method to value the completed technology and the excess earnings method to value the customer relationships. Cash flows were discounted at a rate of 15%. The weighted-average amortization periods are 7.7 years for completed technologies and 8.0 years for customer relationships. The intangible assets acquired will be amortized using methods that approximate the pattern in which the economic benefits are expected to be realized, including variable declining balance and straight-line methods.
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and is primarily the result of expected synergies. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.
The Company completed the final allocation of the purchase price related to Crossing in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Crossing’s operating results have been included in the results of operations for the Brooks Product Solutions and Brooks Global Services segments from the acquisition date. Revenue from Crossing for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $12.1 million, and the net income was $0.2 million. Revenue from Crossing for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 was $32.8 million, and the net loss was $2.3 million. The net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 includes charges to expense the step-up in value of acquired inventories which increased the net loss by $2.7 million. No charge related to the step-up in the value of acquired inventories was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2013. The operating results for Crossing also include amortization expense of $1.0 million and $2.7 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
The following pro forma summary presents consolidated information of the Company as if the acquisition of Crossing occurred on October 1, 2011 (in thousands):

The pro forma net income (loss) has been adjusted to reflect additional amortization from adjustments to intangible assets as if those adjustments had been applied as of October 1, 2011.
Transaction costs of $3.6 million incurred by Crossing prior to the closing of the acquisition have been eliminated from pro forma net income (loss) as presented above. These costs include banker fees of $1.5 million and one-time incentive compensation payments related to the transaction of $1.2 million. Transaction costs incurred by the Company related to this acquisition were $0 and $642,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, and are included in selling, general and administrative expense.

4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
    
Goodwill represents the excess of net book value over the estimated fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of a reporting unit. The Company performs an annual impairment test of its goodwill on September 30 of each fiscal year unless interim indicators of impairment exist. The Company did not identify any indicators of impairment during the nine month period ended June 30, 2013 that would warrant an interim test.

The Company has experienced a decline in revenue and operating profit for the products in the Brooks Life Science Systems segment. In the Company's annual assessment of goodwill impairment as of September 30, 2012, the Company concluded that the fair value of the Brooks Life Science Systems segment exceeded its carrying value by 5%. As of June 30, 2013, management reviewed its current outlook for the Brooks Life Science Systems segment, and after weighing all the negative and positive available evidence, concluded that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the segment exceeds the carrying value. As a result, an interim test of goodwill impairment is not required as of June 30, 2013. However, to the extent that the operating results of the Brooks Life Science Systems segment do not recover as quickly as expected and new life science products being designed to expand the markets we serve are not introduced in a timely manner or accepted by the market, the Company may be required to write down all or a portion of the goodwill and other long-lived assets associated with this segment, which would adversely impact the Company's earnings.

5. Income Taxes
The Company recorded an income tax provision (benefit) of $3.7 million and $(0.1) million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The tax benefit for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 includes $0.9 million of tax benefits resulting from the reinstatement of the U.S. federal research and development tax credit, retroactive to January 1, 2012. The benefit also consists of U.S. deferred tax benefits mostly offset by foreign taxes, certain state income taxes and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company uses the estimated annual effective tax rate approach to calculate the tax provision in interim periods. The tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2013 includes reversals to income tax benefits recognized on losses in the first half of the fiscal year as the Company has revised its projections to a loss position in the United States.

The Company recorded an income tax provision of $1.0 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The provision substantially consists of foreign income taxes arising from the Company's international sales mix, certain state income taxes and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits, which is partially offset by $1.4 million of reductions in uncertain tax positions as a result of the lapse in statutes of limitations.
The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets by jurisdiction and assesses the need for a valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has continued to maintain a valuation allowance in the U.S. against certain tax credits and state net operating losses due to the uncertainty of their realization based on long-term Company forecasts and the expiration dates on these attributes. The Company has also continued to maintain a valuation allowance in certain jurisdictions that have not generated historical cumulative profitability.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax and various state, local and international income taxes in various jurisdictions. The amount of income taxes paid is subject to the Company's interpretation of applicable tax laws in the jurisdictions in which it files. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities

Table of Contents


throughout the world. The Company has income tax audits in progress in various jurisdictions in which it operates. In the Company's U.S. and international jurisdictions, the years that may be examined vary, with the earliest tax year being 2006. Based on the outcome of these examinations, or the expiration of statutes of limitations for specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the related unrecognized tax benefits could change from those recorded in the Company's statement of financial position. The Company currently anticipates that it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefit will be reduced by approximately $1.5 million during the next twelve months primarily as the result of statutes of limitations expiring.

Options to purchase approximately 26,000 and 212,000 shares of common stock and 10,000 and 282,000 shares of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. In addition, options to purchase approximately 52,000 and 256,000 shares of common stock and 3,020,000 and 0 shares of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. All outstanding stock options and unvested shares of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as a result of the net loss for that period.
7. Segment Information
The Company reports financial results in three segments: Brooks Product Solutions, Brooks Global Services and Brooks Life Science Systems. A description of segments is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on revenues, operating income (loss) and returns on invested assets. Operating income (loss) for each segment includes selling, general and administrative expenses directly attributable to the segment. Other unallocated corporate expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets (excluding completed technology) and restructuring are excluded from the segments’ operating income (loss). The Company’s non-allocable overhead costs, which include various general and administrative expenses, are allocated among the segments based upon various cost drivers associated with the respective administrative function, including segment revenues, segment headcount, or an analysis of the segments that benefit from a specific administrative function. Segment assets exclude cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities, deferred tax assets and investments in joint ventures.

8. Significant Customers
The Company had one customer that accounted for more than 10% of revenues, at 12%, in the three months ended June 30, 2013. The Company had two customers that accounted for more than 10% of revenues, at 14% and 11%, respectively, in the three months ended June 30, 2012. The Company had one customer that accounted for more than 10% of revenues, at 11%, in the nine months ended June 30, 2013. The Company had one customer that accounted for more than 10% of revenues, at 14%, in the nine months ended June 30, 2012. The Company did not have any customers that accounted for more than 10% of its accounts receivable balance at March 31, 2013 and September 30, 2012.
9. Restructuring and Other Charges

The Company recorded a restructuring charge of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and $6.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. Restructuring costs recorded in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 relate primarily to workforce reductions implemented to consolidate the operations of Crossing and the Company, to transition internal manufacturing of the Polycold product line (certain of the Company's cryopump and cryochiller products) to a third party contract manufacturer and other programs designed to improve the Company's cost structure. Restructuring charges also included facility related costs incurred in connection with the consolidation of Crossing facilities with the Company's facilities. Accrued restructuring costs as of June 30, 2013 are expected to be paid during the next twelve months.

Restructuring costs for the three months ended June 30, 2013 consist of $0.5 million of severance costs and $0.1 million of facility related costs. The Brooks Product Solutions segment incurred a severance charge of $0.3 million related to the outsourcing of the Polycold manufacturing operation. The Company also incurred $0.1 million of severance charges related to corporate positions, $0.1 million related to the Brooks Global Services segment and $0.1 million related to the Brooks Life Science Systems segment.

Restructuring costs for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 consist of $5.3 million of severance costs and $0.7 million of facility related costs. The Brooks Product Solutions segment incurred a severance charge of $3.0 million to eliminate approximately 150 positions, including approximately 30 related to the acquisition of Crossing; Brooks Global Services segment

14

Table of Contents


incurred a severance charge of $1.1 million to eliminate 18 positions, and the Company incurred $0.8 million to eliminate 19 corporate positions. The Brooks Life Science Systems segment incurred severance charges of $0.4 million to eliminate 7 positions, mainly due to the consolidation of administrative functions. Restructuring and other charges for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 also include $0.1 million related to a partial settlement of a defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all of the Company's Swiss employees.

Total severance charges related to the outsourcing of the Polycold manufacturing operation are expected to be $1.3 million, including severance and retention bonuses. This charge will be amortized over the period from notification of the closing to the actual service end date. The Company has expensed $0.9 million of this charge as of June 30, 2013, and will expense the balance in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013.

The Company recorded charges to operations of $0.9 million and $1.1 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, for severance costs related primarily to a limited workforce reduction for the Brooks Product Solutions segment and Brooks Global Services segment in response to a decline in demand from semiconductor equipment customers.

10. Employee Benefit Plans
On October 26, 2005, the Company purchased Helix Technology Corporation and assumed responsibility for the liabilities and assets of the Helix Employees’ Pension Plan (the “Helix Plan”). During fiscal year 2012, the Company advised participants of the Helix Plan that it intended to settle this pension obligation. The settlement, which occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, resulted in accelerated cash payments of approximately $6.4 million to fully satisfy the pension liability and accelerated amortization of approximately $8.9 million of prior pension losses.

Table of Contents


The Company acquired Nexus Biosystems, Inc. on July 25, 2011, and in connection with this acquisition, assumed responsibility for the liabilities of the Nexus Biosystems AG Pension Plan (the “Nexus Plan”). The Nexus Plan covers substantially all employees of the Company’s Swiss subsidiary. Admittance for risk benefits (disability and death) is as of January 1 for employees who are 17 or older. Admittance into the pension plan with retirement pension occurs as of January 1 for employees who are age 24 or older. Pension benefits are based on the accumulated savings credits plus interest. The amount of the savings credit is based on the employee’s age. The Company expects to contribute $0.5 million to the Nexus Plan in fiscal 2013. In connection with actions taken under the Company’s restructuring programs, the number of employees accumulating benefits under the Nexus Plan has declined significantly. As a result, a partial settlement event occurred and resulted in accelerated amortization of approximately $0.1 million of prior pension losses. The settlement loss, recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2012, is included in restructuring and other charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company also has a pension plan covering certain employees of its Taiwan subsidiary that were employed by this entity on or before July 1, 2005 (the “Taiwan Plan”). After July 1, 2005, most participants of this plan decided to join a defined contribution plan and as a result, their service earned under the Taiwan Plan was frozen.
The components of the Company’s net pension cost related to the Helix Plan (for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012), the Nexus Plan and the Taiwan Plan for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows (in thousands):

These investments are accounted for using the equity method. Under this method of accounting, the Company records in income a proportionate share of the earnings of the joint ventures with a corresponding increase in the carrying value of the investment.
13. Derivative Instruments
All derivatives, whether designated in a hedging relationship or not, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based on the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. Certain derivatives held by the Company are not designated as hedges but are used in managing exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates.

A fair value hedge is a derivative instrument designated for the purpose of hedging the exposure of changes in fair value of an asset or a liability resulting from a particular risk. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are both recognized in the same caption in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. A cash flow hedge is a derivative instrument designated for the purpose of hedging the exposure to variability in future cash flows resulting from a particular risk. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and are recognized in the results of operations when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in the results of operations. A

hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation is achieved through a derivative instrument designated for the purpose of hedging the exposure of changes in value of investments in foreign subsidiaries. If the derivative is designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income as a part of the currency translation adjustment. Ineffective portions of net investment hedges are recognized in the results of operations. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, changes in fair value are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as gains and losses consistent with the classification of the underlying risk.

The Company has transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Most of these transactions or balances are denominated in Euros, British Pounds and a variety of Asian currencies. These transactions and balances, including short-term advances between the Company and its subsidiaries, subject the Company's operations to exposure from exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period.

The Company mitigates the impact of potential currency translation gains and losses on short-term intercompany advances through timely settlement of each transaction, generally within 30 days. The Company also enters into foreign exchange contracts to reduce its exposure to currency translation. Under forward contract arrangements, the Company typically agrees to purchase a fixed amount of U.S. Dollars in exchange for a fixed amount of a foreign currency on specified dates with maturities of three months or less. These transactions do not qualify for hedge accounting and, accordingly, the instrument is recorded at fair value with the corresponding gains and losses recorded as a component of Other Income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has recorded net gains of $0.2 million and $0.3 million related to these contracts during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively. Gains and losses related to these contracts were not material during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2012.
 
The Company had the following notional amounts outstanding under foreign currency contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 (in thousands):

functional currencies. In June 2013, the Company entered into foreign exchange contracts to reduce its exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates associated with an order for multiple automated sample management systems. The Company concluded that these foreign currency contracts meet the criteria to qualify as a cash flow hedge. Accordingly, the Company reflected changes in the fair value of the effective portion of these foreign currency contracts in accumulated other comprehensive income. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to revenue in the consolidated statement of income when the forecasted transaction occurs.

The Company did not recognize any amounts related to ineffectiveness in the results of operations for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2013.    

There were no cash flow hedges outstanding at September 30, 2012.

The fair values of the forward contracts described above are recorded in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as prepaid expenses and other current assets and accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

14. Marketable Securities
The Company invests its cash in marketable securities and classifies them as available-for-sale. The Company records these securities at fair value. Marketable securities reported as current assets represent investments that mature within one year from the balance sheet date. Long-term marketable securities represent investments with maturity dates greater than one year from the balance sheet date. At the time that the maturity dates of these investments become one year or less, the securities are reclassified to current assets. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity until they are sold or mature. At the time of sale, any gains or losses, calculated by the specific identification method, will be recognized as a component of operating results.
The following is a summary of marketable securities (included in short and long-term marketable securities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets), including accrued interest receivable, as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 (in thousands):

15. Fair Value Measurements
The fair value measurement guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset and liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Assets and liabilities of the Company measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents of $9.0 million and $17.5 million at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, consisting primarily of Money Market Funds, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets.
Available-For-Sale Securities
Available-for-sale securities of $35.1 million and $60.2 million at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, consisting of highly rated Corporate Bonds, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets of identical assets or liabilities. Available-for-sale securities of $53.7 million and $85.4 million at June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, consisting of Mortgage-Backed Securities, Municipal Securities, Bank Certificate of Deposits, Commercial Paper and U.S. Treasury Securities and Obligations of U.S. Government Agencies are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using matrix pricing and benchmarking. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique used to value securities by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.
Foreign Exchange Contracts
Foreign exchange contract assets and liabilities of $42,000 and $46,000, respectively, at June 30, 2013 are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because there may not be an active market for each contract. However, the inputs used to calculate the value of the contract were obtained from an active market. Foreign exchange contract assets and liabilities of $10,000 and $13,000, respectively, at September 30, 2012 are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because there may not be an active market for each contract, however, the inputs used to calculate the value of the contract were obtained from an active market.

16. Deferred Lease Costs

In December 2012, the Company leased certain of its owned property in Chelmsford, Massachusetts, to an unrelated third party. In connection with the origination of this lease the Company capitalized $3.6 million of initial direct costs, which consist primarily of commissions and tenant allowances. The deferred lease costs will be amortized over the initial lease term,

22

Table of Contents


or approximately 10.5 years. Amortization expense for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013, was $86,000 and $97,000. Rental income related to this lease for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 was $271,000 and $307,000. Rental income and amortization of the deferred lease costs are included in other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At June 30, 2013, $0.4 million of unamortized deferred lease costs were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $3.1 million of unamortized deferred lease costs were included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

17. Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, both asserted and unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of such legal proceedings or in certain instances provide reasonable ranges of potential losses. However, as of the date of this report, the Company believes that none of these claims will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations. In the event of unexpected subsequent developments and given the inherent unpredictability of these legal proceedings, there can be no assurance that the Company's assessment of any claim will reflect the ultimate outcome and an adverse outcome in certain matters could, from time to time, have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations in particular quarterly or annual periods.
18. Subsequent Events
On August 1, 2013, the Company acquired the assets and business of Matrical, Inc. for cash consideration of approximately $10.5 million. Matrical is a Spokane, Washington-based, privately held company that provides biological sample preparation, management and storage solutions to customers in agricultural biotechnology, biotechnology, life science tools and pharmaceutical markets. The acquisition of Matrical provides the Company with the opportunity to enhance its existing capabilities of biobanking and sample management product offerings within the Brooks Life Science Systems market. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions.

On July 31, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a portion of its Chelmsford, Massachusetts campus to a real estate management company for $11.4 million. The property includes a building with approximately 90,000 square feet and the related land. The Company had previously entered into an agreement to lease this property to an unrelated third party as described in Note 16. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to be completed in September 2013.    
On August 7, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.08 per share payable on September 27, 2013 to common stockholders of record on September 6, 2013. Dividends are declared at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and depend on actual cash from operations, the Company’s financial condition and capital requirements and any other factors the Company’s Board of Directors may consider relevant. Future dividend declarations, as well as the record and payment dates for such dividends, will be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors on a quarterly basis.

Table of Contents


We are a leading provider of automation, vacuum and instrumentation solutions for multiple markets and are a valued business partner to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and equipment users throughout the world. We serve markets where equipment productivity and availability is a critical factor for our customers’ success, typically in demanding temperature and/or pressure environments. Our largest served market is the semiconductor capital equipment industry, which represented approximately 65% and 54% of our consolidated revenues for fiscal years 2011 and 2012, respectively, and 53% of our consolidated revenues for the first nine months of fiscal year 2013. These decreases are the result of a recent cyclical downturn in the semiconductor capital equipment market, combined with our efforts to target certain non-semiconductor revenue opportunities, including acquisitions and a divestiture which has led to an increase in the non-semiconductor portion of our revenue. The non-semiconductor markets served by us include life sciences, industrial capital equipment and other adjacent technology markets.
    
We continue to make investments to maintain and grow both our semiconductor product and service offerings and our life science offerings. In October 2012, we acquired Crossing Automation Inc. (“Crossing”), a U.S. based provider of automation solutions for the global semiconductor front-end markets. The purchase price was approximately $59.0 million, net of cash acquired. In August 2013, we acquired Matrical, Inc., a Spokane, Washington-based company that provides biological sample preparation, management and storage solutions to customers in agricultural biotechnology, biotechnology, life science tools and pharmaceutical markets for cash consideration of approximately $10.5 million.

In December 2012, we committed to a restructuring plan that would achieve cost synergies associated with our acquisition of Crossing and further reduce costs and improve profitability in light of the continued near-term macro-economic environment. We eliminated redundant positions across the Company and have substantially completed our restructuring plan as of June 30, 2013. For a discussion on our restructuring plan, please refer to “Restructuring and Other Charges” below.
We report financial results in the following three segments:
The Brooks Product Solutions segment provides a variety of products critical to technology equipment productivity and availability. Those products include atmospheric and vacuum tool automation systems, atmospheric and vacuum robots and robotic modules and cryogenic vacuum pumping, thermal management and vacuum measurement solutions which are used to create, measure and control critical process vacuum applications.
The Brooks Global Services segment provides an extensive range of support services including on and off-site repair services, on and off-site diagnostic support services, and installation services to enable our customers to maximize process tool uptime and productivity. This segment also provides end-user customers with spare parts support services to maximize customer tool productivity.
The Brooks Life Science Systems segment provides automated sample management systems for automated cold sample storage, automated blood fractionation equipment, sample preparation and handling equipment, cellular imaging, consumables, and parts and support services to a wide range of life science customers including pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies, biobanks, national laboratories, research institutes and research universities.

The demand for semiconductors and semiconductor manufacturing equipment is cyclical, resulting in periodic expansions and contractions of this market. Most recently, demand for semiconductor capital equipment began to decline during late fiscal 2012 and through the first three months of our fiscal 2013 resulting in lower revenues in both the Brooks Product Solutions segment and the Brooks Global Services segment. Our revenues in these segments have increased sequentially over the last two quarters reflecting a moderate recovery in demand from our semiconductor customers. We expect demand from the semiconductor capital equipment market to continue to recover into the fourth quarter of our fiscal 2013 and into fiscal 2014.

We have also experienced a recent decline in demand for the products in our life science business. We attribute this decline to customers delaying purchasing decisions for automated sample management systems. We believe that this decline is temporary and expect our life science business to recover by the end of our fiscal year. As a result of our acquisitions of life science companies and product lines, we have goodwill and intangible assets associated with the life science business. Goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test, as well as testing on the occurrence of events that indicate a potential impairment. In our annual assessment of goodwill impairment as of September 30, 2012, we concluded that the fair value of the Brooks Life Science segment exceeded its carrying value by 5%. We have concluded, based on the current outlook for the life science business, after weighing all the negative and positive available evidence available to us, that an interim test is not required as of June 30, 2013. However, to the extent that this business does not recover as quickly as expected and new products being designed to expand the markets we serve are not introduced in a timely manner or accepted by the market, we may be required to write down all or a portion of the goodwill and other long-lived assets associated with this business, which

would adversely impact our earnings. At June 30, 2013, we have $40.3 million of goodwill and $40.1 million of other long-lived assets associated with our life science business.

We recorded an income tax provision of $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in an effective tax rate of 73.5% and a tax benefit of $0.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in an effective tax rate of 1.1%. We use the estimated annual effective tax rate approach to calculate the tax provision in interim periods. The tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2013 reflects an overall decrease in the estimated annual tax rate applied to the year-to-date pre-tax loss. The decrease in the estimated annual effective tax rate is due to lower forecasted income and changes in the jurisdictional mix of income.
Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2013, Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012
Revenues
We reported revenues of $118.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $140.4 million in the same prior year period, a decrease of 16%. This decrease was due to reduced demand for our products, primarily due to weakness in demand for semiconductor capital equipment which led to a reduction of $31.6 million in revenues from our Brooks Product Solutions segment and a $0.5 million reduction in revenues from our Brooks Global Services segment. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of Crossing which added $12.1 million to our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same prior year period. Our Brooks Life Science Systems segment had lower sales of $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same prior year period due to lower demand.
We reported revenues of $332.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $400.0 million in the same prior year period, a decrease of 17%. This decrease was due to reduced demand for our products, primarily due to weakness in demand for semiconductor capital equipment which led to a reduction of $88.7 million in revenues from our Brooks Product Solutions segment and a $4.7 million reduction in revenues from our Brooks Global Services segment. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of Crossing which added $32.8 million to our revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to the same prior year period. Our Brooks Life Science Systems segment had lower sales of $6.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same prior year period due to lower demand.
Our Brooks Product Solutions segment reported revenues of $86.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of 20% from $107.7 million in the same prior year period. This segment reported revenues of $234.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of 21% from $296.5 million in the same prior year period. These decreases were mostly attributable to lower volumes of shipments to semiconductor capital equipment customers, which decreased by $31.6 million and $88.7 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods. This decrease was partially offset by $10.4 million and $26.9 million of product revenues for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, contributed by our recent acquisition of Crossing.
Our Brooks Global Services segment reported revenues of $22.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a 6% increase from $21.5 million in the same prior year period. Excluding the acquisition of Crossing, revenues for this segment declined $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same prior year period primarily due to weakness in demand. Total service revenues for this segment were $19.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, and include $1.5 million of service revenues contributed by the acquisition of Crossing. For the prior year period, service contract and repair revenues were $18.5 million. Total spare parts revenues were $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, and include $0.2 million of spare parts revenues contributed by the acquisition of Crossing. For the prior year period, spare parts revenues were $3.0 million.
Our Brooks Global Services segment reported revenues of $66.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, a 2% increase from $64.9 million in the same prior year period. Excluding the acquisition of Crossing, revenues for this segment declined $4.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same prior year period primarily due to weakness in demand. Total service revenues for this segment were $55.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, and include $4.3 million of service revenues contributed by the acquisition of Crossing. For the prior year period, service contract and repair revenues were $56.5 million. Total spare parts revenues were $10.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, and include $1.6 million of spare parts revenues contributed by the acquisition of Crossing. For the prior year period, spare parts revenues were $8.4 million.

Our Brooks Life Science Systems segment reported revenues of $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a 21% decrease from $11.2 million in the same prior year period. This segment reported revenues of $32.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of 17% from $38.7 million in the same prior year period. These decreases were the result of delays in customer decisions to purchase automated sample management systems during the last six months.

Gross Margin
Our gross margin percentage increased to 33.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 32.9% for the same prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to a more favorable product mix for our Brooks Life Science Systems segment and cost reductions in our Brooks Global Services segment. Our gross margin percentage decreased to 31.7% for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 33.7% for the same prior year period. This decrease was attributable to acquisition related charges of $2.7 million related to the acquisition of Crossing, which reduced gross margin by 0.8%, higher charges for amortization of intangible assets due to our acquisition of Crossing which reduced gross margin by 0.1%, with the balance of the reduction primarily related to a reduction in demand for our products from semiconductor equipment and life science customers, which led to reduced production and lower absorption of our fixed costs.
Our gross margin percentage for our Brooks Product Solutions segment decreased to 32.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 33.6% in the same prior year period. The decrease in gross margin percentage was attributable to the reduction in demand for our products, which led to reduced production and lower absorption of our fixed costs. Gross margin percentage for our Brooks Product Solutions segment decreased to 31.3% for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 33.9% in the same prior year period. The decrease in gross margin percentage was caused in part by $1.4 million of charges related to the acquisition of Crossing, mainly related to the sale of acquired inventory to which a step up in value had been applied in purchase accounting, which reduced gross margin by 0.6% and increased charges for amortization of intangible assets due to the Crossing acquisition, which reduced gross margin by 0.2%, with the balance of the lower gross margin attributable to the reduction in demand for our products, which led to reduced production and lower absorption of our fixed costs.
Our gross margin percentage for our Brooks Global Services segment increased to 34.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 27.3% in the same prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to cost reductions in our repair and service operations resulting from restructuring actions taken over the last twelve months. Gross margin percentage for our Brooks Global Services segment decreased to 29.6% for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 30.2% in the same prior year period. The decrease in gross margin percentage was caused by $1.3 million of charges related to the acquisition of Crossing, mainly related to the sale of acquired inventory to which a step up in value had been applied in purchase accounting, which reduced gross margin by 2.0%.
    
Our gross margin percentage for our Brooks Life Science Systems segment increased to 42.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 37.3% in the same prior year period. Gross margin percentage for our Brooks Life Science Systems segment increased to 38.8% for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 38.3% in the same prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to a more favorable product mix for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, including software upgrade projects that increased gross margin percentage by 4.4% and 3.0% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
Research and Development
Research and development, or R&D, expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 were $12.1 million, an increase of $0.4 million, compared to $11.7 million in the same prior year period. R&D expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 were $35.7 million, a decrease of $0.5 million, compared to $36.2 million in the same prior year period. This decrease for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 is primarily due to lower labor costs due to restructuring actions taken over the last twelve months. Lower labor costs were partially offset by $5.0 million of R&D expenses in the nine months ended June 30, 2013 for Crossing, which were not included in the same prior year period.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A expenses were $22.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $2.7 million compared to $25.3 million in the same prior year period. SG&A expenses were $73.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $3.1 million compared to $76.4 million in the same prior year period.

The decrease in SG&A expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2013 is due to $1.4 million of lower consulting costs which decreased primarily because a project focused on improving operating efficiencies was completed in the prior year. In addition, stock-based compensation expense decreased $1.2 million as a result of performance-based vesting criteria that we no longer expect to achieve and labor costs decreased by $0.9 million due to restructuring actions taken over the last twelve months. Lower SG&A costs in the three months ended June 30, 2013 were partially offset by $1.2 million of SG&A expenses for Crossing, which were not included in the same prior year period.

26

Table of Contents



The $3.1 million decrease for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 is the result of $6.0 million of lower consulting costs and other professional service fees which decreased primarily because a project focused on improving operating efficiencies was completed in the prior year. We also reduced labor costs by $4.0 million through restructuring actions taken over the last twelve months and incurred $1.4 million less stock-based compensation expense as a result of performance-based vesting criteria that we no longer expect to achieve. Lower SG&A costs in the nine months ended June 30, 2013 were partially offset by $5.9 million of SG&A expenses for Crossing, which were not included in the same prior year period. In addition, in the second quarter of fiscal 2012, we received $3.3 million of insurance proceeds as reimbursement of litigation related costs previously incurred that were recorded as a reduction of SG&A expense.
Restructuring and Other Charges

We recorded restructuring charges of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and $6.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. Restructuring costs recorded in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 relate primarily to workforce reductions implemented to consolidate the operations of Crossing and the Company, to transition internal manufacturing of the Polycold product line (certain of the our cryopump and cryochiller products) to a third party contract manufacturer and other programs designed to improve our structure. Restructuring charges also included facility related costs incurred in connection with the consolidation of Crossing facilities with our facilities. Accrued restructuring costs of $1.8 million as of June 30, 2013 are expected to be paid during the next twelve months.

Restructuring costs for the three months ended June 30, 2013 consist of $0.5 million of severance costs and $0.1 million of facility related costs. The Brooks Product Solutions segment incurred a severance charge of $0.3 million related to the outsourcing of the Polycold manufacturing operation. We also incurred $0.1 million of severance charges related to corporate positions, $0.1 million related to the Brooks Global Services segment and $0.1 million related to the Brooks Life Science Systems segment.

Restructuring costs for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 consist of $5.3 million of severance costs and $0.7 million of facility related costs. The Brooks Product Solutions segment incurred a severance charge of $3.0 million to eliminate approximately 150 positions, including approximately 30 related to the acquisition of Crossing; Brooks Global Services segment incurred a severance charge of $1.1 million to eliminate 18 positions, and we incurred $0.8 million to eliminate 19 corporate positions. The Brooks Life Science Systems segment incurred severance charges of $0.4 million to eliminate 7 positions, mainly due to the consolidation of administrative functions. Restructuring and other charges for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 also include $0.1 million related to a partial settlement of a defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all of our Swiss employees.

Total severance charges related to the outsourcing of the Polycold manufacturing operation are expected to be $1.3 million, including severance and retention bonuses. This charge will be amortized over the period from notification of the closing to the actual service end date. We expensed $0.9 million of this charge as of June 30, 2013, and will expense the balance in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013.
    
We recorded charges to operations of $0.9 million and $1.1 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, for severance costs related primarily to a limited workforce reduction for the Brooks Product Solutions segment and Brooks Global Services segment in response to a decline in demand from semiconductor equipment customers.
In-Process Research and Development
During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we acquired assets, consisting primarily of intellectual property from Intevac, Inc. for $3.0 million. This intellectual property will be utilized in the development of a next generation of semiconductor automation tools that resides within the Brooks Product Solutions segment. We expensed essentially all of this asset purchase as an in-process research and development cost in the three months ended March 31, 2012.
Interest Income
Interest income was $0.3 million and $0.8 million for each of the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our cash balances available for investing decreased during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same prior year periods because we used $59.0 million in cash to acquire Crossing in our first quarter of fiscal 2013. However, the decrease in invested balances did not significantly impact our interest income in fiscal 2013 because of the low interest rates being earned on our investments.
Other Income, Net

27

Table of Contents


Other income, net, was $387,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and consists primarily of a gain on the sale of fixed assets and joint venture management fee income. Other income, net, was $371,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and consists primarily of a gain on the sale of fixed assets and joint venture management fee income which were partially offset by foreign exchange losses.
    
Other income, net, was $202,000 and $497,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, and consists primarily of joint venture management fee income which was partially offset by foreign exchange losses.
Income Tax Provision (Benefit)

We recorded an income tax provision (benefit) of $3.7 million and $(0.1) million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The tax benefit for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 includes $0.9 million of tax benefits resulting from the reinstatement of the U.S. federal research and development tax credit, retroactive to January 1, 2012. The benefit also consists of U.S. deferred tax benefits mostly offset by foreign taxes, certain state income taxes and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits.

We use the estimated annual effective tax rate approach to calculate the tax provision in interim periods. The tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2013 includes reversals to income tax benefits recognized on losses in the first half of the fiscal year as we revised our projections to a loss position in the United States.

We recorded an income tax provision of $1.0 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The provision substantially consists of foreign income taxes arising from the Company's international sales mix, certain state income taxes and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits, which is partially offset by $1.4 million of reductions in uncertain tax positions as a result of the lapse in statutes of limitations.
As of June 30, 2013, we continued to maintain a valuation allowance in the U.S. against certain tax credits and state net operating losses due to the uncertainty of their realization based on our long-term forecasts and the expiration dates on these attributes. We also continued to maintain a valuation allowance in certain jurisdictions that have not generated historical cumulative profitability.
Equity in Earnings of Joint Ventures
Income associated with our 50% interest in ULVAC Cryogenics, Inc., or “UCI”, a joint venture with ULVAC Corporation of Japan, was $0.3 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The loss associated with our 50% interest in Yaskawa Brooks Automation, Inc., a joint venture with Yaskawa Electric Corporation of Japan was $(0.1) million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Income associated with our 50% interest in UCI was $0.4 million and $1.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This decrease was the result of lower revenues due to a cyclical slowing of demand for UCI products. The loss associated with our 50% interest in Yaskawa Brooks Automation, Inc. was $(0.1) for each of the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
A considerable portion of our revenues are dependent on the demand for semiconductor capital equipment. Demand for this equipment has historically experienced periodic downturns. This cyclicality makes estimates of a considerable portion of our future revenues and cash flows inherently uncertain.
At June 30, 2013, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities aggregating $150.7 million. This amount was composed of $61.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, $41.2 million of investments in short-term marketable securities and $47.6 million of investments in long-term marketable securities.
Cash and cash equivalents were $61.9 million at June 30, 2013, an increase of $7.3 million from September 30, 2012. The increase in cash was primarily due to $55.0 million of net sales of marketable securities and $29.6 million of cash flow from operations. These sources of cash were partially offset by the $59.0 million we used to acquire Crossing and $16.0 million we used to pay cash dividends to our shareholders.
Cash provided by operating activities was $29.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, and was composed of $24.7 million for non-cash related charges and $13.1 million of working capital improvements which were partially offset by a net loss of $8.2 million. Non-cash related charges consisted of items such as $18.3 million of depreciation and amortization and $5.6 million of stock-based compensation offset by a deferred tax benefit of $0.4 million. The decrease in

28

Table of Contents


working capital is primarily due to a $17.3 million decrease in inventory and $6.4 million increase in deferred revenue partially offset by a $3.5 million increase in accounts receivable, a $2.8 million decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and a $1.6 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets.
Cash used in investing activities was $5.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, and is composed of $59.0 million used in connection with the acquisition of Crossing, which was mostly offset by net sales of marketable securities of $55.0 million.
Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 is composed primarily of $16.0 million for quarterly cash dividends we paid on December 28, 2012, March 29, 2013 and June 28, 2013.
At June 30, 2013, we had approximately $5.0 million of letters of credit outstanding.
On June 25, 2013, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC to sell up to $200 million of securities, before any fees or expenses of the offering. Securities that may be sold include common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities, depository shares, purchase contracts and purchase units. Any such offering, if it does occur, may happen in one or more transactions. Specific terms of any securities to be sold will be described in supplemental filings with the SEC. This registration statement will expire on July 1, 2016.
On August 7, 2013, our Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of $0.08 per share of the Company’s common stock. The total dividend of approximately $5.3 million will be paid on September 27, 2013 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 6, 2013. Dividends are declared at the discretion of our Board of Directors and depend on actual cash from operations, our financial condition and capital requirements and any other factors our Board of Directors may consider relevant. We intend to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future; however, the amount and timing of these dividends may be impacted by the cyclical nature of certain markets that we serve. We may reduce, delay or cancel a quarterly cash dividend based on the severity of a cyclical downturn.
We believe that we have adequate resources to fund our currently planned working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. The cyclical nature of our served markets and uncertainty with the current global economic environment makes it difficult for us to predict longer-term liquidity requirements with certainty. We may be unable to obtain any required additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to successfully develop or enhance products, respond to competitive pressure or take advantage of acquisition opportunities, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Other Key Indicators of Financial Condition and Operating Performance
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA presented below are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. They should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to give effect to certain non-recurring and non-cash items and other adjustments. We believe that the inclusion of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in this Form 10-Q is appropriate because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally as a critical measurement of operating effectiveness. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparison from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses) and the age and book depreciation of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense).
In determining Adjusted EBITDA, we eliminate the impact of a number of items. For the reasons indicated herein, you are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and whether you consider it appropriate. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
they do not reflect our cash expenditures for capital expenditure or contractual commitments;
they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital requirements;

other companies, including other companies in our industry, may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. For these purposes, we rely on our GAAP results. For more information, see our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

The decrease in EBITDA for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same prior year period was primarily related to the $67.3 million decrease in revenues and the $5.0 million increase in restructuring costs. For a further discussion of the factors impacting our revenues and costs, see the discussion of our results of operations above.

In connection with our acquisitions, we have valued acquired inventories at fair value, which results in a higher inventory cost charged to cost of sales in the periods shortly after the acquisition closes. We also value acquired sales contracts at fair value, which results in lower revenue and cost of sales in the periods shortly after the acquisition closes. These charges were $2.9 million in the nine month period ended June 30, 2013 and related primarily to the acquisition of Crossing. The charges in prior year period related to our life science acquisitions.

Merger costs consist of professional fees to complete the acquisitions of Matrical and Crossing during fiscal year 2013 and the acquisition of life science companies during fiscal year 2012.
Recently Enacted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an amendment to the accounting guidance for presentation of comprehensive income. Under the amended guidance, a company may present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This authoritative guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. On October 1, 2012 we adopted this guidance and elected to present two separate but consecutive statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional details about those amounts. On January 1, 2013 we adopted this standard, which had no impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including changes in interest rates affecting the return on our cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Exposure
As our cash and cash equivalents consist principally of money market securities, which are short-term in nature, our exposure to market risk related to interest rate fluctuations for these investments is not significant. Our short-term and long-term investments consist mostly of highly rated corporate debt securities, and as such, market risk to these investments is not significant. During the nine months ended June 30, 2013, the unrealized loss on marketable securities was $339,000. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in an annual change of approximately $1.6 million in interest income earned.
Currency Rate Exposure
We have transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Most of these transactions or balances are denominated in Euros, British Pounds and a variety of Asian currencies. Sales in currencies other than the U.S. dollar were 25% of our total sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2013. These foreign sales were made primarily by our foreign subsidiaries, which have cost structures that substantially align with the currency of sale.
In the normal course of our business, we have short-term advances between our legal entities that are subject to foreign currency exposure. These short-term advances were approximately $17.0 million at June 30, 2013, and relate to the Euro, British Pound and a variety of Asian currencies. We mitigate the impact of potential currency translation losses on these short-term intercompany advances by the timely settlement of each transaction, generally within 30 days. We also utilize forward contracts to hedge our exposures. We incurred a foreign currency loss of $0.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, which relates to the currency fluctuation on these advances between the time the transaction occurs and the ultimate settlement of the transaction. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign exchange rates at June 30, 2013 would result in a $0.8 million change in our net income.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, and pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company’s management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Change in Internal Controls. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various legal proceedings, both asserted and unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. We cannot predict the ultimate outcome of such legal proceedings or in certain instances provide reasonable ranges of potential losses. However, as of the date of this report, we believe that none of these claims will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations. In the event of unexpected subsequent developments and given the inherent unpredictability of these legal proceedings, there can be no assurance that our assessment of any claim will reflect the ultimate outcome and an adverse outcome in certain matters could, from time to time, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations in particular quarterly or annual periods.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
You should carefully review and consider the information regarding certain factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results set forth under Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes from the factors disclosed in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, although we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
