Comment and Outlook

 

Frank Laukien, President and CEO, commented: “Given the challenging economic conditions in 2009, we are extremely pleased that we could exceed our full-year 2009 financial goals with year-over-year

 

·                  currency-adjusted total revenue growth of 2%,

·                  BSI improvement in GAAP operating margin of 250 basis points,

·                  BSI increase in GAAP net income of 19%,

plus excellent improvements in cash flow.

 

This success is directly attributable to the strength of our high-performance, innovative scientific instruments and analytical solutions portfolio, as well as to the enthusiasm and customer focus of our global Bruker team.

 

Moreover, we are also pleased with the recent acceleration in growth of BEST, which more than doubled its fourth quarter 2009 revenue year-over-year.  We are optimistic about the prospects for this ‘intrapreneurial’ venture, as BEST further develops its broad technology base in superconducting materials and devices, in order to address potentially large emerging markets in clean tech, alternative energy and ‘big science’ infrastructure.”

 

Dr. Laukien continued: “In 2010, as Bruker celebrates its 50th anniversary, our goal is to build on our success over the past 50 years by remaining true to our innovation and profitable growth strategy.  We believe that our commitment to R&D and customer focus, coupled with emphasis on operational excellence, can generate further improvements in financial performance.  Our financial goals for the year 2010 are:

 

·                  total Bruker currency-adjusted revenue growth of greater than 5%,

 



 

·                  BSI operating margin improvement of greater than 125 basis points, excluding the 60 basis point favorable impact from the 1 GHz NMR recognized in 2009,

·                  BSI net income and EPS increase of greater than 15%, and

·                  BSI working capital decrease of more than 5%.

 

For our BEST segment, in 2010 we plan greater than 25% revenue growth, continued infrastructure, marketing and R&D investments for clean-tech and alternative energy applications, with an expected BEST 2010 operating loss of $7-8 million.”
