The amounts shown for Compensation Actually Paid have been calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized, or received by the Company’s NEOs. These amounts reflect the Summary Compensation Table Total with certain adjustments as described in footnote 3 below.
(3)
Compensation Actually Paid reflects the exclusions and inclusions of certain amounts for the PEO and the Non- PEO NEOs as set forth below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Amounts in the Exclusion of Stock Awards and Option Awards column are the totals from the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” columns set forth in the Summary Compensation Table. Amounts in the "Average Exclusion of Change in Pension Value for Non-PEO NEOs" column reflect the amounts attributable to the Change in Pension Value reported in the “Change in Pension Value and Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings” column presented in the Summary Compensation Table. Amounts in the "Average Inclusion of Pension Service Cost for Non-PEO NEOs” are based on the service cost for services rendered during the listed year and amounts in the “Average Inclusion for Prior Service Cost for Non-PEO NEOs” are based on the cost of pension benefits resulting from a plan amendment or initiation during 2023.

The Peer Group TSR set forth in this table utilizes the SIC Code 3826 Laboratory Analytical Instruments Index, which we also utilize in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2023. The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting December 31, 2019, through the end of the listed year in the Company and in the SIC Code 3826 Laboratory Analytical Instruments Index, respectively. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.
(5)
We determined Non-GAAP Diluted EPS to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our PEO and Non-PEO NEOs in 2023. See Appendix A for our definition of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. This performance measure may not have been the most important financial performance measure for prior years and we may determine a different financial performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future years.
