GENERAL

The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by Danaher Corporation (“Danaher” or the “Company”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In this quarterly report, the terms “Danaher” or the “Company” refer to Danaher Corporation, Danaher Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, or the consolidated subsidiaries of Danaher Corporation, as the context requires. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the Notes thereto included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 22, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”).

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, its results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 and its cash flows for each of the six-month periods then ended.

There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report that have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and the related Notes. Reclassifications of certain prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation.

Operating Leases—As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, operating lease right-of-use assets where the Company was the lessee were approximately $1.0 billion and are included within other long-term assets in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.  The associated operating lease liabilities were approximately $1.1 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities and other long-term liabilities.
