BRUKER CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Description of Business

Bruker Corporation, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (Bruker or the Company), develops, manufactures and distributes high-performance scientific instruments and analytical and diagnostic solutions that enable its customers to explore life and materials at microscopic, molecular and cellular levels. Many of the Company’s products are used to detect, measure and visualize structural characteristics of chemical, biological and industrial material samples. The Company’s products address the rapidly evolving needs of a diverse array of customers in life science research, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, applied markets, cell biology, clinical research, microbiology, in-vitro diagnostics, nanotechnology and materials science research.

The Company has four operating segments, Bruker BioSpin Group, Bruker CALID Group, Bruker Scientific Instruments (BSI) Nano Segment and Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies (BEST). The Company has three reportable segments, BSI Life Science Segment, BSI NANO Segment and BEST.  

For financial reporting purposes, the Bruker BioSpin Group and Bruker CALID Group operating segments are aggregated into the reportable BSI Life Science Segment because each has similar economic characteristics, production processes, service offerings, types and classes of customers, methods of distribution and regulatory environments.

Bruker BioSpin — The Bruker BioSpin Group designs, manufactures and distributes enabling life science tools based on magnetic resonance technology. Bruker BioSpin Group’s revenues are generated by academic and government research customers, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and nonprofit laboratories, as well as chemical, food and beverage, clinical and other industrial companies.

Bruker CALID (Chemicals, Applied Markets, Life Science, In-Vitro Diagnostics, Detection)- The Bruker CALID Group designs, manufactures and distributes life science mass spectrometry and ion mobility spectrometry solutions, analytical and process analysis instruments and solutions based on infrared and Raman molecular spectroscopy technologies and radiological/nuclear detectors for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE) detection. Customers of the Bruker CALID Group include: academic institutions and medical schools; pharmaceutical, biotechnology and diagnostics companies; contract research organizations; nonprofit and  for-profit forensics laboratories; agriculture, food and beverage safety laboratories; environmental and clinical microbiology laboratories; hospitals and government departments and agencies.

The BSI NANO Segment designs, manufactures and distributes advanced X-ray instruments; atomic force microscopy instrumentation; advanced fluorescence optical microscopy instruments; analytical tools for electron microscopes and X-ray metrology; defect-detection equipment for semiconductor process control; handheld, portable and mobile X-ray fluorescence spectrometry instruments; and spark optical emission spectroscopy systems. Customers of the BSI NANO Segment include academic institutions, governmental customers, nanotechnology companies, semiconductor companies, raw material manufacturers, industrial companies, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies and other businesses involved in materials analysis.

The BEST reportable segment develops and manufactures superconducting and non-superconducting materials and devices for use in renewable energy, energy infrastructure, healthcare and "big science" research. The segment focuses on metallic low temperature superconductors for use in magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear magnetic resonance, fusion energy research and other applications.

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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, 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.

5

At March 31, 2020, the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates, which are detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, have not changed.

Risks & Uncertainties

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

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, referred to as COVID-19, surfaced in Wuhan, China. The virus continues to spread globally, has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization and has spread to over 200 countries and territories, including the United States. The impact of this pandemic has been and will likely continue to be extensive in many aspects of society, which has resulted in and will likely continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world.

Impacts to the Company's business include temporary closures of many of the 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, have placed significant restrictions on travel and many businesses have announced extended closures. For example, a number of states, including California, Massachusetts and New Jersey where the Company has significant operations, have issued shelter in place or stay-at-home orders which remain in place and require employees in that area to work from home and avoid unnecessary travel. In addition, a number of the Company's production facilities have either temporarily closed or are operating on a reduced capacity. Most commercial activity in sales and marketing, and customer demonstrations and applications training, are either being conducted remotely or postponed. Customer purchasing departments are operating at reduced capacity, and many customers could delay or cut capital expenditures and operating budgets. These travel restrictions, business closures and operating reductions at Bruker, customers, distributors, and/or suppliers have and will 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. This disruption of the Company's employees, distributors, suppliers and customers has and will continue to impact the Company’s global sales and operating results. The Company anticipates that the COVID-19 pandemic and challenges to customers' and the Company's operations will continue to have a significant negative impact on the Company’s second quarter 2020 financial results.

The Company is continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on commercial operations, including its continued impact on revenue in 2020. 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 ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of the travel restrictions and business closures imposed by the governments of impacted countries. The outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn or a global recession that could affect demand for our products and likely impact the Company's operating results.

The preparation of the 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 will directly or indirectly impact the 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 information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or treat COVID-19, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international customers and markets. 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.

Revenue for the Company recognized at a point in time versus over time is as follows (dollars in millions):

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2020		2019
Revenue recognized at a point in time	$	367.7	$	410.5
Revenue recognized over time		56.3		50.9
Total revenue	$	424.0	$	461.4

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 March 31, 2020, remaining performance obligations were approximately $1,852.1 million. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 54.2% 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, 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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $40.7 million and $43.9 million, respectively.  The decrease in the contract asset balance during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 is primarily a result of the decline in revenue.

7

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 sheet based on the timing of when revenue recognition is expected.  As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the contract liabilities were $342.1 million and $312.5 million,  respectively. The increase in the contract liability balance during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 is primarily the result of a delay in installations due to the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy. Approximately $76.7 million of the contract liability balance on December 31, 2019 was recognized as revenue during the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

3.    Acquisitions

The impact of all acquisitions, individually and collectively, on revenues, net income and total assets was not material. Pro forma financial information reflecting all acquisitions has not been presented because the impact, individually and collectively, on revenues, net income and total assets is not material. Amounts allocated to goodwill that are attributable to expected synergies are not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

2020

Hain

On October 15, 2018, Bruker acquired an 80% interest in Hain Lifescience GmbH (“Hain”) for a purchase price of Euro 66 million (approximately $76.4 million) with options to acquire the remaining 20%. Hain is an infectious disease specialist with a broad range of molecular diagnostics solutions for the detection of microbial and viral pathogens, as well as for molecular antibiotic resistance testing. Hain is located in Nehren, Germany and was integrated into the BSI Life Science Segment. On January 31, 2020, the Company acquired the remaining 20% interest in Hain for a purchase price of EUR 20 million (approximately $22.2 million). The carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was accreted to the redemption value of EUR 20 million through retained earnings and then reclassified to additional paid in capital.

2019

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company completed two acquisitions that collectively complemented the Company's existing product offerings or added aftermarket and software capabilities to the Company's existing businesses.

The following table reflects the consideration transferred and the respective reporting segment for each of these acquisitions:

Name of Acquisition	Date Acquired	Segment	Consideration		Cash Consideration
Arxspan, LLC	March 4, 2019	BSI Life Science	$	16.6	$	14.4

In addition to the awards above, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense within other charges, net of $0.3 million and $0.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to the 2018 acquisition of Mestrelab Research, S.L. (Mestrelab).

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the underlying requisite service period of the stock-based award.

Stock options to purchase the Company's common stock are periodically awarded to executive officers and other employees of the Company subject to a vesting period of three to four years. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. There were no stock options awarded during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was as follows:

The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $0.3 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Restricted stock unit activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was as follows:

		Weighted

The total fair value of restricted stock units vested was $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

At March 31, 2020, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $2.4 million associated with outstanding stock option awards granted under the Company's stock plans over the weighted average remaining service period of 1.3 years. The Company also expects to recognize additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $21.1 million associated with outstanding restricted stock units granted under the 2016 Plan over the weighted average remaining service period of 2.4 years.

5.    Earnings Per Share

Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Bruker Corporation, adjusted to reflect changes in the redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted net income per share computation includes the effect of shares which would be issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of restricted stock, reduced by the number of shares which are assumed to be purchased by the Company under the treasury stock method.   There was no redemption value adjustment of the redeemable noncontrolling interest for the three months ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and net income per common share attributable to Bruker shareholders (dollars in millions, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020		2019
Net income attributable to Bruker Corporation, as reported	$	10.5	$	30.8
Weighted average shares outstanding:
Weighted average shares outstanding-basic		154.2		156.7
Effect of dilutive securities:

		155.4		157.9
Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders:
Basic	$	0.07	$	0.20
Diluted	$	0.07	$	0.20

Stock options to purchase approximately 0.1 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in the three months ended March 31, 2019 as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

6.    Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies the following hierarchy to determine the fair value of financial instruments, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The levels in the hierarchy are defined as follows:

●Level 1:  Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

●Level 2:  Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

●Level 3:  Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The valuation techniques that may be used by the Company to determine the fair value of Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments are the market approach, the income approach and the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value based on current market expectations about those future amounts, including present value techniques, option-pricing models and the excess earnings method. The cost approach is based on the amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

The following tables set forth the Company's financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and presents them within the fair value hierarchy using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in millions):

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash, derivative instruments consisting of forward foreign exchange contracts, cross-currency interest rate swap agreements, commodity contracts, derivatives embedded in certain purchase and sale contracts, derivatives embedded within noncontrolling interests, accounts receivable, accounts payable, contingent consideration and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of the Company's cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash, accounts receivable, borrowings under a revolving credit agreement and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. Derivative assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's long-term debt consists principally of a note purchase agreement entered into in 2012 and a revolving credit agreement, long term loan agreement and note purchase agreement entered into in 2019.

The Company has evaluated the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and management’s estimates. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

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 fair value of the long-term fixed interest rate debt, which has been classified as Level 2, was $453.1 million and $517.4 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, based on market and observable sources with similar maturity dates.

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 three months ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.

12

Excluded from the table above are restricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments related to time and call deposits. The Company has a program to enter into money markets and time deposits with varying maturity dates ranging from one to twelve months, as well as call deposits for which the Company has the ability to redeem the invested amounts generally over a period of 95 days. The Company has classified these investments within cash and cash equivalents or short-term investments within the consolidated balance sheets based on call and maturity dates and these are not subject to fair value measurement. The following tables set forth the balances of restricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in millions):

	March 31,		December 31,
	2020		2019
Restricted cash	$	3.4	$	3.6
Cash equivalents		303.6		9.0
Short-term investments		56.2		6.6

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its short-term investments to determine if there have been any events that could create an impairment.  None were noted for the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.

As part of certain acquisitions, the Company recorded contingent consideration liabilities that have been classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The contingent consideration represents the estimated fair value of future payments to the former shareholders of certain acquired companies 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 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.

The following table sets forth the changes in contingent consideration liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (dollars in millions):

Balance at December 31, 2019	$	15.8
Current period adjustments		(2.3)
Current period settlements		(1.5)
Foreign currency effect		(0.1)
Balance at March 31, 2020	$	11.9

As part of the Mestrelab 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 49% of Mestrelab for cash at a contractually defined redemption value. These rights (an embedded derivative) are exercisable beginning in 2022 and can be accelerated, at a discounted redemption value, upon certain events related to post combination services. As the option is tied to continued employment, the Company classified the hybrid instrument (noncontrolling interest with an embedded derivative) as a long-term liability on the consolidated balance sheet. 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 hybrid instrument is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table sets forth the changes in hybrid instrument liability for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (dollars in millions):

Balance at December 31, 2019	$	10.6
Current period adjustments		0.3
Balance at March 31, 2020	$	10.9

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded amortization expense of $8.7 million and $10.1 million, respectively, related to intangible assets subject to amortization.

14

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company performed an interim impairment assessment of the goodwill balance as of March 31, 2020 using a combination of both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Based on this interim assessment, the Company concluded the fair values of each of the reporting units were significantly greater than their carrying amounts, and therefore, no impairment is required. The goodwill assessments were based on management's estimates and assumptions, a number of which are dependent on external factors. To the extent actual results differ materially from these estimates and the Company experiences further negative developments in subsequent periods, interim impairment assessments could be required, which could result in an impairment of goodwill.

10.  Debt

The Company’s debt obligations as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of the following (dollars in millions):

	March 31,		December 31,

Total revolving lines of credit			$	845.3	$	196.3	$	133.8	$	515.2

As of March 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of all debt agreements.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has entered into several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million of U.S. to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $355.0 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 change in fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income as part of foreign currency translation adjustments 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 has lowered net interest expense by $2.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The gains (losses) related to hedges of net asset investments in international operations that were recorded within the cumulative translational adjustment section of other comprehensive income were $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company did not have any cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2019. 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.

11.  Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Interest Rate Risks

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to outstanding variable rate debt and adverse movements in the related market rates. Typically, the most significant component of the Company’s interest rate risk relates to amounts outstanding under the 2019 Credit Agreement and the 2019 Term Loan.

Commodity Price Risk Management

The Company has arrangements with certain customers under which it has a firm commitment to deliver copper based superconductor wire 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. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $7.2 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The changes in the fair value of these commodity contracts are recorded within interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss).

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk Management

The Company generates a substantial portion of its revenues and expenses in international markets, principally Germany, other countries in the European Union and Switzerland, which subjects its operations to the exposure of exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. The Company periodically enters into foreign currency contracts in order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in currency translation have on its monetary transactions. Under these arrangements, the Company typically agrees 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 consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company had the following notional amounts outstanding under foreign exchange contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements  at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (in millions):

	March 31, 2020				December 31, 2019

(1) Derivatives not designated as accounting hedges.

(2) Derivatives designated as accounting hedges.

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 $11.5 million for the delivery of products and $6.1 million for the purchase of products at March 31, 2020 and $12.3 million for the delivery of products and $6.1 million for the purchase of products at December 31, 2019. The changes in the fair value of these embedded derivatives are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss).

12.  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 March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $2.9 million and $7.7 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 21.5% and 20.1%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate may change over time as the amount or mix of income and taxes changes among the jurisdictions in which the Company is subject to tax.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding penalties and interest, of approximately $16.8 million and $15.9 million, respectively, of 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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, approximately $0.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions was included in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Penalties and interest of $0.2 million and $0.1 million were recorded in the provision for income taxes for unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The Company files tax returns in the United States, which includes 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 2019 are approximately 30.0% and 15.0% for Germany and Switzerland, respectively. The mix of earnings in those two jurisdictions resulted in an increase of 1.9% from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company has not been a party to any material tax holiday agreements. The tax years 2013 to 2019 are open to examination in Germany and Switzerland. Tax years 2013 to 2019 remain open for examination in the United States.

On March 27, 2020 the House passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (The CARES Act), also known as the Third COVID-19 Supplemental Relief bill, and the president of the United States signed the legislation into law. The Company does not expect the provisions of the legislation to have a significant impact on the effective tax rate or the income tax payable and deferred income tax positions of the Company.

13.  Commitments and Contingencies

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

Letters of Credit and Guarantees

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had bank guarantees of $133.8 million and $143.2 million, respectively, related primarily to customer advances. These arrangements guarantee the refund of advance payments received from customers in the event that the merchandise is not delivered or warranty obligations are not fulfilled in compliance with the terms of the contract. These guarantees affect the availability of the Company’s lines of credit.

18

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. Loss contingency provisions are recorded if the potential loss from any claim, asserted or unasserted, or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated or a range of loss can be determined. These accruals represent management's best estimate of probable loss. Disclosure is also provided when it is reasonably possible that a loss will be incurred or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded provision. The Company believes the outcome of pending proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

On September 25, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, a subsidiary of Carl Zeiss AG (Zeiss), sued Luxendo GmbH (Luxendo), a subsidiary of Bruker Corporation, for infringement of a recently registered German utility model patent licensed to Zeiss pertaining to one specific Luxendo product category. The Company intends to vigorously defend against this claim.

On September 23, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Micromass UK Limited (Micromass), a subsidiary of Waters Corporation, sued Bruker Corporation, as well as its affiliate, Bruker Daltonik GmbH, for infringement of a European patent pertaining to our timsTOF product line. Bruker was notified that Micromass has expanded its complaint in Düsseldorf and now asserts another recently granted European patent in Germany. The Company intends to vigorously defend against these claims.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies.

Governmental Investigations

The Company is subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which it 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.

In August 2018, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) informed the Company that it was conducting an investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including Bruker Korea Co., Ltd (Bruker Korea).  The Company cooperated fully with the KFTC and on June 16, 2019, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $20,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter. As a result of the KFTC’s decision, the Korea Public Procurement Service (PPS) imposed a three month suspension on Bruker Korea’s ability to bid for or conduct sales to Korean government entities which ended on March 27, 2020. Sales to Korean government entities were less than 3% of the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In late August 2019, the KFTC informed the Company that it was conducting a separate investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including five public tenders involving Bruker Korea during 2015.  The Company is cooperating fully with the KFTC and a hearing on the matter has been rescheduled for May 29, 2020.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies related to these matters.

14.  Shareholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

In May 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan (the Repurchase Program) authorizing repurchases of common stock in the amount of up to  $300.0 million from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as management deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. The Company has repurchased a total of 3,323,104 shares at an aggregate cost of $142.3 million under the Repurchase Program. No repurchases occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2020. Any future repurchases will be funded from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The remaining authorization as of May 4, 2020 is $157.7 million and this Repurchase Program expires on May 13, 2021.

Cash Dividends on Shares of Common Stock

On February 22, 2016, the Company announced the establishment of a dividend policy and the declaration by its Board of Directors of an initial quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.04 per share of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock. Under the dividend policy, the Company will target a cash dividend to the Company's shareholders in the amount of $0.16 per share per annum, payable in equal quarterly installments.

Subsequent dividend declarations and the establishment of record and payment dates for such future dividend payments, if any, are subject to the Board of Directors' continuing determination that the dividend policy is in the best interests of the Company's shareholders. The dividend policy may be suspended or cancelled at the discretion of the Board of Directors at any time.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in other comprehensive income (loss), but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity, net of tax. The Company’s other comprehensive income (loss) is composed primarily of foreign currency translation adjustments and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans. The following is a summary of comprehensive income (dollars in millions):

17.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued 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 new 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. Entities may apply the provisions of the new standard as of the beginning of the reporting period when the election is made (i.e. as early as the first quarter 2020). Unlike other topics, the provisions of this update are only available until December 31, 2022, when the reference rate replacement activity is expected to have completed. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and has yet to elect an adoption date.

22

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01- Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815 (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force), which clarifies the interaction of the accounting for certain equity securities, equity method investments, and certain forward contracts and purchased options. The guidance clarifies that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying measurement principles for certain equity securities immediately before applying or discontinuing the equity method. The Company expects to adopt this guidance in 2020 using a prospective method. The assessment of the adoption of this ASU is in process and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions within the current guidance; including the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The amendment also improves consistent application by clarifying and amending existing guidance related to aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The assessment of the adoption of this ASU is in process and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements of fair  value measurements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. This ASU is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test. This ASU will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance modifies the recognition of credit losses related to financial assets, such as debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, and other financial assets that have the contractual right to receive cash. Current guidance requires the recognition of a credit loss when it is considered probable that a loss event has occurred. The new guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based upon relevant information, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the asset. As such, expected credit losses may be recognized sooner under the new guidance due to the broader range of information that will be required to determine credit loss estimates. The new guidance also amends the current other- than-temporary impairment model used for debt securities classified as available-for-sale. When the fair value of an available- for-sale debt security is below its amortized cost, the new guidance requires the total unrealized loss to be bifurcated into its credit and non-credit components. Any expected credit losses or subsequent recoveries will be recognized in earnings and any changes not considered credit related will continue to be recognized within other comprehensive income (loss). This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. The new standard impacts the Company's accounts receivables and off balance sheet credit exposures. The new standard did not have an impact on the Company’s  results of operations and cash flows.

18.  Subsequent Event

Due to the impact of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, on Bruker’s business and the global economy, the Company has implemented temporary cost saving measures.  These temporary measures include short-time work for many of the Company’s European operations, temporary tiered salary reductions for the Company’s global leadership team and workforce, one to two week closures of select manufacturing locations, a hiring freeze, and curtailment of non-strategic discretionary spending. The Company expects these cost saving measures to have a significant impact on the three month period ended June 30, 2020.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Statements contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which express that we “believe", "anticipate", "plan", "expect", "seek”, “may”, “will”, “intend”, “estimate”, “should” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities  Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations but are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the impact of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, on our business and operations, the global economy, our cost cutting measures and their impact, our intentions regarding our intellectual property, the impact of government contracts and government regulation, the impact of our material weaknesses in internal controls and the timing to remedy them, our working capital requirements and sufficiency of cash, our competition, seasonality of our business, sufficiency of our facilities, our employee relations, the impact of legal or intellectual property proceedings, the impact of changes to tax and accounting rules and changes in law, our anticipated tax rate, our expectations regarding cash dividends, share repurchases, interest expense, interest rate swap agreements, expenses and capital expenditures, the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and changes in commodity prices, the impact of our restructuring initiatives, our expectations regarding backlog and revenue and other risk factors discussed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. These and other factors are identified and described in more detail in our filings with the SEC, including, without limitation, our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and subsequent filings. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements other than as required by law.

Although our unaudited condensed 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. Specifically, management believes that organic revenue and free cash flow, both non-GAAP financial measures, as well as non-GAAP gross profit margin and non-GAAP operating  margin, 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 initiative, and other non-operational costs that are infrequent or non-recurring in nature 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 use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our period-over-period operating performance because our management believes they provide more comparable measures of our continuing business because they adjust for certain items that are not reflective of the underlying performance of our business. These measures may also be useful to investors in evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business. 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. 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, North America and Southeast Asia, 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 March 31, 2020 decreased by $37.4 million, or 8.1%, to $424.0 million, compared to $461.4 million for the comparable period in 2019. Included in revenue was an increase of approximately $4.3 million from acquisitions and a decrease of $5.5 million from foreign currency translation. Excluding the effects of foreign currency translation and our recent acquisitions, our organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, decreased by $36.2 million, or 7.9%. The decline in revenue was directly related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers’ as well as certain of our operations.

Our gross profit margin decreased to 45.4% during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 46.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our operating margin decreased to 3.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 9.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in gross and operating margin was a result of lower revenue, factory and operating inefficiencies and unfavorable mix due to disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our income tax provision in the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $2.9 million and $7.7 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 21.5% and 20.1%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of an unfavorable discrete item in the period.

Diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 were $0.07, a decrease of $0.13 compared to $0.20 per share in the three month period ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in net  income and earnings per diluted share was primarily driven by the decline in revenue, gross profit and operating profit as a result of disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Operating cash flow for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 was a source of cash of $35.0 million. For the three month period ended March 31, 2020, our free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, was $4.5 million, calculated as follows (dollars in millions):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020		2019
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	35.0	$	14.2
Less: Purchases of property, plant and equipment		30.5		10.6
Free Cash Flow	$	4.5	$	3.6

Purchases of property, plant and equipment included an increase of approximately $20.0 million related to production facilities for productivity gains and expansion.

25

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. The new revolving credit agreement replaced our $500 million five-year revolving credit agreement established on October 27, 2015, that was terminated on December 11, 2019. 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, due January 18, 2022, and the existing $100 million 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 a result of entering into these interest rate and cross currency swap agreements, we reduced our interest expense by $2.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. We anticipate these swap agreements will lower net interest expense in future years.

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 on our customers, supply chain or manufacturing capabilities;

● 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;

● 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.

Several of these factors have in the past affected the amount and timing of revenue recognized on sales of our products and receipt of related payments and will 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.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to present a challenging operating environment and we are focused on four key priorities: the health and safety of our employees, customers and partners; maintaining business continuity and service levels for our customers; executing prudent temporary cost reductions; and delivering enabling research and diagnostic products to help fight the pandemic, and to support other essential priorities of our society. In the first quarter of 2020, our revenue declined 8.1% compared to the first quarter of 2019, primarily due to COVID-19 related disruptions. In addition, in China, we experienced a 30% year over year revenue decline for the first quarter of 2020.

Health and safety of our valued employees, customers and partners

While Bruker's businesses are essential, we have proceeded to implement strict social distancing, enhanced cleaning protocols and other preventative measures throughout our major facilities. While many of our office colleagues are working remotely, we are placing enhanced focus on our service organization and factory employees for whom work from home is not feasible. Where customer sites are accessible and open, our field service organizations operate under social distancing protocols to ensure the safety of customer sites, when our employees need to be on site.

26

We may experience decreased work efficiency and productivity as a result of the increased number of employees working from home. In addition, with this remote working model where employees are increasingly accessing our systems through VPN or internet connections, we may be subject to increased security risks, including the risks of cyberattacks or data breaches. Additionally, if any of our key leaders contract the virus and are unable to perform their duties for a period of time as the result of illness, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be adversely affected.

Maintaining business continuity and service levels to our customers

Ensuring our ability to supply our enabling technologies and solutions and maintain high service levels for our customers is another top priority for Bruker. In late March and during parts of April, 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 are now ramping back up. Our supply chain continues to be resilent and we do not anticipate being supply or capacity limited in the second half of 2020, provided that the current gradual re-opening trends continue in our key geograpies without further disruptions or a second COVID-19 wave.

Executing prudent temporary cost reductions

Due to the impact of COVID-19, on our business and the global economy, we have implemented temporary cost saving measures. These temporary measures include short-time work for many of our European operations, temporary tiered salary reductions for our global leadership team and workforce, one to two week closures of select manufacturing locations, a hiring freeze, and curtailment of non-strategic discretionary spending. We expect these cost saving measures to have a significant impact on the three month period ended June 30, 2020. At the same time, we are seeking to minimize the disruption for our employees and preserve our ability to ramp up again with our highly trained and loyal work force. While pursuing cost savings throughout the business, we intend to maintain our important investments in key strategic initiatives.

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 crisis, most notably our Microbiology and infectious disease diagnostics portfolio, to which we have added a SARS-COV-2 PCR test, 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 affected our operations significantly. We are actively working to manage the impact of COVID-19 on our operations; however, the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our business, directly or indirectly, cannot accurately be predicted at this time. To date the COVID-19 pandemic has had a minimal impact on our manufacturing facilities and has not significantly impacted our distribution centers or our logistics providers; however, we have seen disruptions and delays in certain of our shipments to customers who have closed facilities during the pandemic. We are continuing to monitor the impact of these delays on our business and respond accordingly. For additional information on the various risks posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors included in this report.

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.

27

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, 2019.

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our revenue decreased by $37.4 million, or 8.1%, to $424.0 million, compared to $461.4 million for the comparable period in 2019. Included in revenue was an increase of approximately $4.3 million from acquisitions and a decrease of $5.5 million from foreign currency translation. Excluding the effects of foreign currency translation and our recent acquisitions, our organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, decreased by $36.2 million, or 7.9%. The decline in revenue was directly related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers as well as certain of our operations.

29

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $192.3 million, or 45.4% of revenue, compared to $214.7 million, or 46.5% of revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Included in gross profit were various charges for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs totaling $5.8 million and $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Excluding these charges, our non-GAAP gross profit margins for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were 46.7% and 48.9%, respectively. The decrease in GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit was a result of lower revenue, factory inefficiencies and unfavorable mix due to the disruptions from the  COVID-19 pandemic.

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased to $121.2 million, or 28.6% of total revenue, from $120.1 million, or 26.0% of total revenue, for the comparable period in 2019.  The increase in expenses and as a percentage of total revenue are a result of operating inefficiencies and lower revenue due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased to $48.5 million, or 11.4% of total revenue, from $46.4 million, or 10.1% of total revenue, for the comparable period in 2019.  The increase in expenses and as a percentage of revenue are a result of investments in our strategic growth initiatives and lower revenue due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Other Charges, Net

Other charges, net of $6.2 million recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2020 consisted primarily of $3.4 million of professional fees incurred in connection with investigation matters, $1.5 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $1.2 million related to long-lived asset impairments, $0.9 million of costs associated with our global information technology (IT) transformation initiative and a benefit of $1.1 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2020 and 2019. 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 of $6.3 million recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019 consisted of $1.1 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $0.5 million related to professional fees, $0.9 million of costs associated with our global IT transformation initiative and $3.8 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2019 and 2018.

Operating Income

Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $16.4 million, resulting in an operating margin of 3.9%, compared to operating income of $41.9 million, and an operating margin of 9.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Included in operating income were various charges for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs totaling $15.8 million and $20.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Excluding these charges, our non-GAAP operating margins for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were 7.6% and 13.5%, respectively. The decrease in GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin was due to lower revenue, unfavorable mix and operating inefficiencies due to COVID-19 related disruptions to Bruker’s customers and some of our own operations.  

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

Interest and other income (expense), net during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was an expense of $2.9 million compared to an expense of $3.5 million for the comparable period in 2019.

30

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $1.9 million and $1.0 million related to pension plan expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $3.1 million and $0.6 million related to pension plan expenses. As a result of entering into interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements related to our new debt agreements, we reduced our interest expense by $2.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.  

Income Tax Provision

The 2020 and 2019 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 income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $2.9 million and $7.7 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 21.5% and 20.1%, respectively.  The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of unfavorable discrete items in the period.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $0.1 million and ($0.1) million, respectively. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represented the minority shareholders' proportionate share of the net income recorded by our majority-owned subsidiaries.

Net Income Attributable to Bruker Corporation

Our net income attributable to Bruker for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $10.5 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to $30.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the comparable period in 2019. The decrease in net income and earnings per diluted share was primarily driven by the decline in revenue, gross profit and operating profit as a result of disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Reportable Segment Revenue

The following table presents revenue, change in revenue and revenue growth by reportable segment (dollars in millions):

	Three Months Ended March 31,						Percentage
	2020		2019		Dollar Change		Change
BSI Life Science	$	261.4	$	276.0	$	(14.6)	(5.3)	%
BSI NANO		120.1		140.8		(20.7)	(14.7)	%
BEST		46.2		47.8		(1.6)	(3.3)	%
Eliminations (a)		(3.7)		(3.2)		(0.5)
	$	424.0	$	461.4	$	(37.4)	(8.1)	%

(a) 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 decline in revenue for the BSI Life Science segment was due to disruptions to our customers’ and certain Bruker operations from the COVID-19 pandemic. The decline in revenues for the BSI NANO segment was due to disruptions to our customers’ and certain Bruker operations from the COVID-19 pandemic as well as weakened industrial markets demand. The decline in revenue for the BEST segment was due to slower superconductor demand towards the end of the period ending March 31, 2020.

31

Operating Income

The following table presents operating income and operating margins on revenue by reportable segment (dollars in millions):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020				2019
			Percentage of				Percentage of
	Operating		Segment		Operating		Segment
	Income		Revenue		Income		Revenue
BSI Life Science	$	39.5	15.1	%	$	46.9	17.0	%
BSI NANO		(8.0)	(6.7)	%		3.2	2.3	%
BEST		1.7	3.7	%		3.1	6.5	%
Corporate, eliminations and other (a)		(16.8)				(11.3)
Total operating income	$	16.4	3.9	%	$	41.9	9.1	%

(a) Represents corporate costs and eliminations not allocated to the reportable segments.

The operating margin declines in the BSI Life Science and BSI NANO segments were due to negative operating leverage on lower revenue and unfavorable mix from COVID-19 related disruptions. The decline in the operating margin for the BEST segment was due to charges related to planned restructuring actions.

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, repurchases of our common stock, or the payment of dividends in the future. In addition, our ability to access capital and maintain liquidity may be impacted by the volatile market conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Historically, we have financed our growth and liquidity needs through cash flow generation 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.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $35.0 million, resulting from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $45.7 million, partially offset by a change in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $10.7 million. The increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily caused by an increase in cash received from customers offset by purchases of inventory for orders in 2020.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, net cash provided by operating activities was $14.2 million, resulting from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $57.1 million, partially offset by an increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $42.9 million. The increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily caused by an increase in inventory for orders in 2019.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in investing activities was $100.6 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $26.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily attributed to cash paid for purchases of short-term investments of $50.0 million, purchases of property, plant and equipment of $30.5 million and acquisitions of $22.0 million.  Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was attributed to cash paid for acquisitions of $16.1 million and purchases of property, plant and equipment of $10.6 million.

32

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $191.3 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $8.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily attributable to $197.5 million in proceeds from borrowings under the 2019 Revolving Credit Agreement offset in part by $6.2 million for the payment of dividends.  Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily attributable to repayment of $25.9 million of borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement, $15.0 million repayment of the 2012 Note Purchase Agreement, $6.3 million used for the payment of dividends and $4.3 million repayment of other debt.  This was offset by $40.6 million in proceeds from borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement and $3.1 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock, net.  

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. The new revolving credit agreement replaced our $500 million five-year revolving credit agreement established on October 27, 2015, that was terminated on December 11, 2019. 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, due January 18, 2022, and the existing $100 million 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 a result of entering into these interest rate and cross currency swap agreements, we reduced our interest expense by $2.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. We anticipate these swap agreements will lower net interest expense in future years.

As of March 31, 2020, we have entered into several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million of U.S. Dollar to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $355.0 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. As a result of entering into these agreements, we lowered our net interest expense by $2.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. We anticipate these swap agreements will lower net interest expense by approximately $8.8 million in 2020 and $8.8 million in 2021.

In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved the 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. In 2019, we repurchased 3,323,104 shares of common stock with an aggregate cost of approximately $142.3 million under the Repurchase Program. No repurchases occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The remaining authorization as of May 4, 2020 is $157.7 million. 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 repurchased shares are reflected within Treasury stock in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2020.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 totaled $851.7 million and $684.9 million, respectively, of which $473.3 million and $301.1 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 and Switzerland.

At December 31, 2019 and in accordance with the tax reform legislation signed by the president of the United States on December 22, 2017, or the 2017 Tax Act, we recorded state and foreign withholding taxes, as well as subsequent foreign currency translations on these withholding taxes as they are an obligation of the parent company, on the cash and liquid assets portion of the unremitted earnings and profits (E&P) of foreign subsidiaries expected to be repatriated from our foreign subsidiaries to the United States. We continue to be indefinitely reinvested in the amount of $477 million of non-cash E&P that is subject to the 2017 Tax Act deemed repatriation. If this E&P is ultimately distributed to the United States in the form of dividends or otherwise we would likely be subject to additional withholding tax. We will continue to evaluate our assertions on the cumulative historical outside basis differences in our foreign subsidiaries as of December 31, 2019. The amount of unrecognized deferred withholding taxes on the undistributed E&P was $58 million at December 31, 2019.

33

As of March 31, 2020, we had approximately $38.8 million of net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce state taxable income that are expected to expire at various times beginning in 2020; approximately $82.7 million of net operating losses available to reduce German federal income and trade taxes that are carried forward indefinitely and $13.2 million of other foreign net operating losses that are expected to expire at various times beginning in 2021. We also had U.S. state research and development tax credits of $7.7 million. Utilization of these credits and state net operating losses may be subject to annual limitations due to the ownership percentage change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions. In the event of a deemed change in control under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, an annual limitation on the utilization of net operating losses and credits may result in the expiration of all or a portion of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards.

Uncertain tax contingencies are positions taken or expected to be taken on an income tax return that may result in additional payments to tax authorities. If a tax authority agrees with the tax position taken or expected to be taken or the applicable statute of limitations expires, then additional payments will not be necessary.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 we had the following debt outstanding (dollars in millions):

	March 31,		December 31,
	2020		2019
US Dollar notes under the 2012 Note Purchase Agreement	$	205.0	$	205.0
CHF Dollar notes under the 2019 Note Purchase Agreement		307.7		306.8

Current portion of long-term debt		(95.8)		(0.5)
Total long-term debt, less current portion	$	914.8	$	812.8

The following is a summary of the maximum commitments and the net amounts available to us under the 2019 Credit Agreement and other lines of credit with various financial institutions located primarily in Germany and Switzerland that are unsecured and typically due upon demand with interest payable monthly, at March 31, 2020 (dollars in millions):

	Weighted		Total Amount				Outstanding

Total revolving lines of credit			$	845.3	$	196.3	$	133.8	$	515.2

As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with the financial covenants of these debt agreements.

As of March 31, 2020, there are no material changes to our contractual obligations from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

As of March 31, 2020, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Information regarding recent accounting standard changes and developments is incorporated by reference from Part I, Item 1, Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, of this document and should be considered an integral part of this Item 2. See Note 17 in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for recently adopted and issued accounting standards.

34

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are potentially exposed to market risks associated with changes in foreign currency translation rates, interest rates and commodity prices. We selectively use financial instruments to reduce these risks. All transactions related to risk management techniques are authorized and executed pursuant to our policies and procedures. Analytical techniques used to manage and monitor foreign currency translation and interest rate risk include market valuations and sensitivity analysis.

Impact of Foreign Currencies

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 that foreign currency, 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 1.2% and 4.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, 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 March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded net losses from currency translation adjustments of $13.0 million and $15.0 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. Our foreign currency translation gains, net were $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. We periodically enter into foreign 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 March 31, 2020, we have entered into several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million of U.S. Dollar to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $355.0 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. The difference between the interest rate received and paid under the interest rate cross-currency swap derivative agreement is recorded in interest income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

35

From time to time, we have entered into foreign 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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts aggregating $65.1 million and $74.4 million, respectively. We will continue to evaluate our currency risks and in the future may utilize foreign currency contracts more frequently.

Impact of Interest Rates

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.

Impact of Commodity Prices

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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $7.2 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The fair value of the fixed price commodity contracts at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $(0.8) million and $0.3 million, respectively. We will continue to evaluate our commodity risks and may utilize commodity forward purchase contracts more frequently in the future.

Inflation

We do not believe inflation had a material impact on our business or operating results during any of the periods presented.

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 March 31, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2020 due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, as described below and in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Notwithstanding this material weakness, management concluded that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, 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 has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

36

Material Weaknesses

During the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  The material weaknesses identified were as follows:

We did not design and maintain an effective control environment commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. Specifically, we lacked a sufficient complement of personnel in our corporate tax department and a U.S. subsidiary with an appropriate level of tax and accounting knowledge, training and experience to appropriately analyze, record and disclose tax and accounting matters timely and accurately. This material weakness contributed to the following additional material weaknesses:

● We did not maintain effective internal controls with respect to accounting for income taxes. Specifically, our controls over income taxes did not operate effectively as designed. This control deficiency resulted in immaterial misstatements to the income tax provision, income taxes payable and uncertain tax position reserves accounts in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

● We did not maintain effective internal controls with respect to accounting for revenue transactions at a U.S. subsidiary. Specifically, our controls over revenue recognition at a U.S. subsidiary did not operate effectively as designed. This control deficiency resulted in immaterial errors to revenue, accounts receivable and deferred revenue accounts in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of the interim or annual financial statements that would result in a material misstatement to our annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, our management determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses.

PART II      OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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 consolidated financial statements.

On September 25, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, a subsidiary of Carl Zeiss AG (Zeiss), sued Luxendo GmbH (Luxendo), a subsidiary of Bruker Corporation, for infringement of a recently registered German utility model patent licensed to Zeiss pertaining to one specific Luxendo product category. We intend to vigorously defend against this claim.

On September 23, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Micromass UK Limited (Micromass), a subsidiary of Waters Corporation, sued Bruker Corporation, as well as its affiliate, Bruker Daltonik GmbH, for infringement of a European patent pertaining to our timsTOF product line. On March 6, 2020, Bruker was notified that Micromass has expanded its complaint in Düsseldorf and now asserts another recently granted European patent in Germany. We intend to vigorously defend against these claims.

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.

37

In August 2018, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) informed us that it was conducting an investigation into the public  tender  bidding  activities  of  a  number  of  life  science  instrument  companies  operating  in  Korea,  including  Bruker Korea Co., Ltd (Bruker Korea). We cooperated fully with the KFTC and on June 16, 2019, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $20,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter. As a result of the KFTC’s decision, the Korea Public Procurement Service (PPS) imposed a three month suspension on Bruker Korea’s ability to bid for or conduct sales to Korean government entities, which ended on March 27, 2020. Sales to Korea government entities were less than 3% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In late August 2019, the KFTC informed us that it was conducting a separate investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including five public tenders involving Bruker Korea during 2015. We are cooperating fully with the KFTC and a hearing on the matter has been rescheduled for May 29, 2020.

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, 2019, 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.

Our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal 2020 will be adversely affected by the recent novel coronavirus disease-2019, or COVID-19, outbreak.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, referred to as COVID-19, surfaced in Wuhan, China. The virus continues to spread globally, has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization and has spread to over 200 countries and territories, including the United States. The impact of this pandemic has been and will likely continue to be extensive in many aspects of society, which has resulted in and will likely continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world.

Impacts to our business include temporary closures of many of our government and university customers and our suppliers, disruptions or restrictions on our 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, have placed significant restrictions on travel and many businesses have announced extended closures. For example, a number of states, including California, Massachusetts and New Jersey where we have significant operations, have issued shelter in place or stay-at-home orders which remain in place and require our employees in that area to work from home and avoid unnecessary travel. In addition, a number of our production facilities have either temporarily closed or are operating on a reduced capacity. Most commercial activity in sales and marketing, and customer demonstrations and applications training, are either being conducted remotely or postponed. Customer purchasing departments are operating at reduced capacity, and many customers could delay or cut capital expenditures and operating budgets. These travel restrictions, business closures and operating reductions at Bruker, our customers, our distributors, and/or our suppliers have and will continue to adversely impact our operations worldwide, including our ability to manufacture, sell or distribute our products, as well as cause temporary closures of our foreign distributors, or the facilities of suppliers or customers. This disruption of our employees, distributors, suppliers or customers has and will continue to impact our global sales and operating results.  In the first quarter of 2020, our revenue declined 8.1% compared to the first quarter of 2019, primarily due to COVID-19 related disruptions.  In addition, in China, we experienced a 30% year over year revenue decline for the first quarter of 2020.   We anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic and challenges to our customers’ and our own operations will continue to have a significant negative impact on our second quarter 2020 financial results.

We may experience decreased work efficiency and productivity as a result of the increased number of employees working from home.  In addition, with this remote working model where employees are increasingly accessing our systems through VPN or internet connections, we may be subject to increased security risks, including the risks of cyberattacks or data breaches. Additionally, if any of our key leaders contract the virus and are unable to perform their duties for a period of time as the result of illness, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be adversely affected.

38

We are continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our commercial operations, including its continued impact on our revenue in 2020. However, we cannot at this time accurately predict what effects these conditions will ultimately have on our future operations due to uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of the travel restrictions and business closures imposed by the governments of impacted countries. The outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn or a global recession that could affect demand for our products and likely impact our operating results.

There have been no other material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 2.        UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the first quarter of 2020.

In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved and we announced a share repurchase program under  which repurchases  of our common stock of up to $300.0 million may 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 (the “2019 Repurchase Program”). In 2019, we repurchased 3,323,104 shares of common stock with an aggregate cost of approximately $142.3 million under the 2019 Repurchase Program. Any future repurchases will be funded from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The remaining authorization under the 2019 Repurchase Program is $157.7 million as of May 4, 2020. The 2019 Repurchase Program expires May 13, 2021 and can be suspended, modified or terminated at any time without prior notice. There were no repurchases made in the first quarter of 2020.

Share Repurchase Program

In May 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan (the Repurchase Program) authorizing repurchases of common stock in the amount of up to  $300.0 million from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as management deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. The Company has repurchased a total of 3,323,104 shares at an aggregate cost of $142.3 million under the Repurchase Program. No repurchases occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2020. Any future repurchases will be funded from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The remaining authorization as of May 4, 2020 is $157.7 million and this Repurchase Program expires on May 13, 2021.

Cash Dividends on Shares of Common Stock

On February 22, 2016, the Company announced the establishment of a dividend policy and the declaration by its Board of Directors of an initial quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.04 per share of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock. Under the dividend policy, the Company will target a cash dividend to the Company's shareholders in the amount of $0.16 per share per annum, payable in equal quarterly installments.

Subsequent dividend declarations and the establishment of record and payment dates for such future dividend payments, if any, are subject to the Board of Directors' continuing determination that the dividend policy is in the best interests of the Company's shareholders. The dividend policy may be suspended or cancelled at the discretion of the Board of Directors at any time.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in other comprehensive income (loss), but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity, net of tax. The Company’s other comprehensive income (loss) is composed primarily of foreign currency translation adjustments and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans. The following is a summary of comprehensive income (dollars in millions):

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

6.    Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies the following hierarchy to determine the fair value of financial instruments, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The levels in the hierarchy are defined as follows:

●Level 1:  Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

●Level 2:  Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

●Level 3:  Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The valuation techniques that may be used by the Company to determine the fair value of Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments are the market approach, the income approach and the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value based on current market expectations about those future amounts, including present value techniques, option-pricing models and the excess earnings method. The cost approach is based on the amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

The following tables set forth the Company's financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and presents them within the fair value hierarchy using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in millions):

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash, derivative instruments consisting of forward foreign exchange contracts, cross-currency interest rate swap agreements, commodity contracts, derivatives embedded in certain purchase and sale contracts, derivatives embedded within noncontrolling interests, accounts receivable, accounts payable, contingent consideration and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of the Company's cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash, accounts receivable, borrowings under a revolving credit agreement and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. Derivative assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's long-term debt consists principally of a note purchase agreement entered into in 2012 and a revolving credit agreement, long term loan agreement and note purchase agreement entered into in 2019.

The Company has evaluated the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and management’s estimates. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

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 fair value of the long-term fixed interest rate debt, which has been classified as Level 2, was $453.1 million and $517.4 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, based on market and observable sources with similar maturity dates.

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 three months ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.

Excluded from the table above are restricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments related to time and call deposits. The Company has a program to enter into money markets and time deposits with varying maturity dates ranging from one to twelve months, as well as call deposits for which the Company has the ability to redeem the invested amounts generally over a period of 95 days. The Company has classified these investments within cash and cash equivalents or short-term investments within the consolidated balance sheets based on call and maturity dates and these are not subject to fair value measurement. The following tables set forth the balances of restricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in millions):

	March 31,		December 31,
	2020		2019
Restricted cash	$	3.4	$	3.6
Cash equivalents		303.6		9.0
Short-term investments		56.2		6.6

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its short-term investments to determine if there have been any events that could create an impairment.  None were noted for the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.

As part of certain acquisitions, the Company recorded contingent consideration liabilities that have been classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The contingent consideration represents the estimated fair value of future payments to the former shareholders of certain acquired companies 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 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.

The following table sets forth the changes in contingent consideration liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (dollars in millions):

Balance at December 31, 2019	$	15.8
Current period adjustments		(2.3)
Current period settlements		(1.5)
Foreign currency effect		(0.1)
Balance at March 31, 2020	$	11.9

As part of the Mestrelab 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 49% of Mestrelab for cash at a contractually defined redemption value. These rights (an embedded derivative) are exercisable beginning in 2022 and can be accelerated, at a discounted redemption value, upon certain events related to post combination services. As the option is tied to continued employment, the Company classified the hybrid instrument (noncontrolling interest with an embedded derivative) as a long-term liability on the consolidated balance sheet. 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 hybrid instrument is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table sets forth the changes in hybrid instrument liability for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (dollars in millions):

Balance at December 31, 2019	$	10.6

As of March 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of all debt agreements.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has entered into several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million of U.S. to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $355.0 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 change in fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income as part of foreign currency translation adjustments 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 has lowered net interest expense by $2.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The gains (losses) related to hedges of net asset investments in international operations that were recorded within the cumulative translational adjustment section of other comprehensive income were $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company did not have any cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2019. 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.

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 March 31, 2020, remaining performance obligations were approximately $1,852.1 million. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 54.2% 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, 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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $40.7 million and $43.9 million, respectively.  The decrease in the contract asset balance during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 is primarily a result of the decline in revenue.

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 sheet based on the timing of when revenue recognition is expected.  As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the contract liabilities were $342.1 million and $312.5 million,  respectively. The increase in the contract liability balance during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 is primarily the result of a delay in installations due to the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy. Approximately $76.7 million of the contract liability balance on December 31, 2019 was recognized as revenue during the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

11.  Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Interest Rate Risks

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to outstanding variable rate debt and adverse movements in the related market rates. Typically, the most significant component of the Company’s interest rate risk relates to amounts outstanding under the 2019 Credit Agreement and the 2019 Term Loan.

Commodity Price Risk Management

The Company has arrangements with certain customers under which it has a firm commitment to deliver copper based superconductor wire 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. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $7.2 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The changes in the fair value of these commodity contracts are recorded within interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss).

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk Management

The Company generates a substantial portion of its revenues and expenses in international markets, principally Germany, other countries in the European Union and Switzerland, which subjects its operations to the exposure of exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. The Company periodically enters into foreign currency contracts in order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in currency translation have on its monetary transactions. Under these arrangements, the Company typically agrees 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 consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company had the following notional amounts outstanding under foreign exchange contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements  at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (in millions):

	March 31, 2020				December 31, 2019

(2) Derivatives designated as accounting hedges.

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 $11.5 million for the delivery of products and $6.1 million for the purchase of products at March 31, 2020 and $12.3 million for the delivery of products and $6.1 million for the purchase of products at December 31, 2019. The changes in the fair value of these embedded derivatives are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss).

2020

Hain

On October 15, 2018, Bruker acquired an 80% interest in Hain Lifescience GmbH (“Hain”) for a purchase price of Euro 66 million (approximately $76.4 million) with options to acquire the remaining 20%. Hain is an infectious disease specialist with a broad range of molecular diagnostics solutions for the detection of microbial and viral pathogens, as well as for molecular antibiotic resistance testing. Hain is located in Nehren, Germany and was integrated into the BSI Life Science Segment. On January 31, 2020, the Company acquired the remaining 20% interest in Hain for a purchase price of EUR 20 million (approximately $22.2 million). The carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was accreted to the redemption value of EUR 20 million through retained earnings and then reclassified to additional paid in capital.

2019

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company completed two acquisitions that collectively complemented the Company's existing product offerings or added aftermarket and software capabilities to the Company's existing businesses.

Commitments and Contingencies

13.  Commitments and Contingencies

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

Letters of Credit and Guarantees

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had bank guarantees of $133.8 million and $143.2 million, respectively, related primarily to customer advances. These arrangements guarantee the refund of advance payments received from customers in the event that the merchandise is not delivered or warranty obligations are not fulfilled in compliance with the terms of the contract. These guarantees affect the availability of the Company’s lines of credit.

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. Loss contingency provisions are recorded if the potential loss from any claim, asserted or unasserted, or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated or a range of loss can be determined. These accruals represent management's best estimate of probable loss. Disclosure is also provided when it is reasonably possible that a loss will be incurred or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded provision. The Company believes the outcome of pending proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

On September 25, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, a subsidiary of Carl Zeiss AG (Zeiss), sued Luxendo GmbH (Luxendo), a subsidiary of Bruker Corporation, for infringement of a recently registered German utility model patent licensed to Zeiss pertaining to one specific Luxendo product category. The Company intends to vigorously defend against this claim.

On September 23, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Micromass UK Limited (Micromass), a subsidiary of Waters Corporation, sued Bruker Corporation, as well as its affiliate, Bruker Daltonik GmbH, for infringement of a European patent pertaining to our timsTOF product line. Bruker was notified that Micromass has expanded its complaint in Düsseldorf and now asserts another recently granted European patent in Germany. The Company intends to vigorously defend against these claims.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies.

Governmental Investigations

The Company is subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which it 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.

In August 2018, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) informed the Company that it was conducting an investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including Bruker Korea Co., Ltd (Bruker Korea).  The Company cooperated fully with the KFTC and on June 16, 2019, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $20,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter. As a result of the KFTC’s decision, the Korea Public Procurement Service (PPS) imposed a three month suspension on Bruker Korea’s ability to bid for or conduct sales to Korean government entities which ended on March 27, 2020. Sales to Korean government entities were less than 3% of the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In late August 2019, the KFTC informed the Company that it was conducting a separate investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including five public tenders involving Bruker Korea during 2015.  The Company is cooperating fully with the KFTC and a hearing on the matter has been rescheduled for May 29, 2020.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies related to these matters.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

5.    Earnings Per Share

Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Bruker Corporation, adjusted to reflect changes in the redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted net income per share computation includes the effect of shares which would be issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of restricted stock, reduced by the number of shares which are assumed to be purchased by the Company under the treasury stock method.   There was no redemption value adjustment of the redeemable noncontrolling interest for the three months ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and net income per common share attributable to Bruker shareholders (dollars in millions, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020		2019
Net income attributable to Bruker Corporation, as reported	$	10.5	$	30.8
Weighted average shares outstanding:
Weighted average shares outstanding-basic		154.2		156.7
Effect of dilutive securities:

		155.4		157.9
Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders:
Basic	$	0.07	$	0.20
Diluted	$	0.07	$	0.20

Stock options to purchase approximately 0.1 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in the three months ended March 31, 2019 as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded amortization expense of $8.7 million and $10.1 million, respectively, related to intangible assets subject to amortization.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company performed an interim impairment assessment of the goodwill balance as of March 31, 2020 using a combination of both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Based on this interim assessment, the Company concluded the fair values of each of the reporting units were significantly greater than their carrying amounts, and therefore, no impairment is required. The goodwill assessments were based on management's estimates and assumptions, a number of which are dependent on external factors. To the extent actual results differ materially from these estimates and the Company experiences further negative developments in subsequent periods, interim impairment assessments could be required, which could result in an impairment of goodwill.

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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, 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 March 31, 2020, the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates, which are detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, have not changed.

Risks & Uncertainties

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

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, referred to as COVID-19, surfaced in Wuhan, China. The virus continues to spread globally, has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization and has spread to over 200 countries and territories, including the United States. The impact of this pandemic has been and will likely continue to be extensive in many aspects of society, which has resulted in and will likely continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world.

Impacts to the Company's business include temporary closures of many of the 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, have placed significant restrictions on travel and many businesses have announced extended closures. For example, a number of states, including California, Massachusetts and New Jersey where the Company has significant operations, have issued shelter in place or stay-at-home orders which remain in place and require employees in that area to work from home and avoid unnecessary travel. In addition, a number of the Company's production facilities have either temporarily closed or are operating on a reduced capacity. Most commercial activity in sales and marketing, and customer demonstrations and applications training, are either being conducted remotely or postponed. Customer purchasing departments are operating at reduced capacity, and many customers could delay or cut capital expenditures and operating budgets. These travel restrictions, business closures and operating reductions at Bruker, customers, distributors, and/or suppliers have and will 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. This disruption of the Company's employees, distributors, suppliers and customers has and will continue to impact the Company’s global sales and operating results. The Company anticipates that the COVID-19 pandemic and challenges to customers' and the Company's operations will continue to have a significant negative impact on the Company’s second quarter 2020 financial results.

The Company is continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on commercial operations, including its continued impact on revenue in 2020. 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 ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of the travel restrictions and business closures imposed by the governments of impacted countries. The outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn or a global recession that could affect demand for our products and likely impact the Company's operating results.

The preparation of the 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 will directly or indirectly impact the 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 information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or treat COVID-19, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international customers and markets. 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.

17.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued 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 new 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. Entities may apply the provisions of the new standard as of the beginning of the reporting period when the election is made (i.e. as early as the first quarter 2020). Unlike other topics, the provisions of this update are only available until December 31, 2022, when the reference rate replacement activity is expected to have completed. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and has yet to elect an adoption date.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01- Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815 (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force), which clarifies the interaction of the accounting for certain equity securities, equity method investments, and certain forward contracts and purchased options. The guidance clarifies that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying measurement principles for certain equity securities immediately before applying or discontinuing the equity method. The Company expects to adopt this guidance in 2020 using a prospective method. The assessment of the adoption of this ASU is in process and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions within the current guidance; including the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The amendment also improves consistent application by clarifying and amending existing guidance related to aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The assessment of the adoption of this ASU is in process and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements of fair  value measurements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. This ASU is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test. This ASU will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance modifies the recognition of credit losses related to financial assets, such as debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, and other financial assets that have the contractual right to receive cash. Current guidance requires the recognition of a credit loss when it is considered probable that a loss event has occurred. The new guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based upon relevant information, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the asset. As such, expected credit losses may be recognized sooner under the new guidance due to the broader range of information that will be required to determine credit loss estimates. The new guidance also amends the current other- than-temporary impairment model used for debt securities classified as available-for-sale. When the fair value of an available- for-sale debt security is below its amortized cost, the new guidance requires the total unrealized loss to be bifurcated into its credit and non-credit components. Any expected credit losses or subsequent recoveries will be recognized in earnings and any changes not considered credit related will continue to be recognized within other comprehensive income (loss). This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. The new standard impacts the Company's accounts receivables and off balance sheet credit exposures. The new standard did not have an impact on the Company’s  results of operations and cash flows.

In addition to the awards above, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense within other charges, net of $0.3 million and $0.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to the 2018 acquisition of Mestrelab Research, S.L. (Mestrelab).

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the underlying requisite service period of the stock-based award.

Stock options to purchase the Company's common stock are periodically awarded to executive officers and other employees of the Company subject to a vesting period of three to four years. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. There were no stock options awarded during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was as follows:

				Weighted
				Average
		Weighted		Remaining	Aggregate
	Shares Subject	Average		Contractual	Intrinsic Value
	to Options	Option Price		Term (Yrs)	(in millions) (b)

Exercisable and expected to vest at March 31, 2020 (a)	1,919,442	$	23.23	4.7	$	25.2

(a) In addition to the options that are vested at March 31, 2020, the Company expects a portion of the unvested options to vest in the future. Options expected to vest in the future are determined by applying an estimated forfeiture rate to the options that are unvested as of March 31, 2020.

(b) The aggregate intrinsic value is based on the positive difference between the fair value of the Company’s common stock price of $35.86 on March 31, 2020 and the exercise price of the underlying stock options.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $0.3 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Restricted stock unit activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was as follows:

		Weighted

Forfeited	(21,845)		32.65

The total fair value of restricted stock units vested was $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

At March 31, 2020, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $2.4 million associated with outstanding stock option awards granted under the Company's stock plans over the weighted average remaining service period of 1.3 years. The Company also expects to recognize additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $21.1 million associated with outstanding restricted stock units granted under the 2016 Plan over the weighted average remaining service period of 2.4 years.

Provision for Income Taxes

Mar. 31, 2020

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for Income Taxes

12.  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 March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $2.9 million and $7.7 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 21.5% and 20.1%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate may change over time as the amount or mix of income and taxes changes among the jurisdictions in which the Company is subject to tax.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding penalties and interest, of approximately $16.8 million and $15.9 million, respectively, of 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 March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, approximately $0.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions was included in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Penalties and interest of $0.2 million and $0.1 million were recorded in the provision for income taxes for unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The Company files tax returns in the United States, which includes 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 2019 are approximately 30.0% and 15.0% for Germany and Switzerland, respectively. The mix of earnings in those two jurisdictions resulted in an increase of 1.9% from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company has not been a party to any material tax holiday agreements. The tax years 2013 to 2019 are open to examination in Germany and Switzerland. Tax years 2013 to 2019 remain open for examination in the United States.

On March 27, 2020 the House passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (The CARES Act), also known as the Third COVID-19 Supplemental Relief bill, and the president of the United States signed the legislation into law. The Company does not expect the provisions of the legislation to have a significant impact on the effective tax rate or the income tax payable and deferred income tax positions of the Company.
