The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements 5 FLIR SYSTEMS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The accompanying consolidated financial statements of FLIR Systems, Inc. (the "Company") are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of FLIR Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' data to conform to the current year's presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of operations or shareholders' equity. NOTE 2 -- CHARGES RELATED TO PRIOR YEARS: Results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 include charges totaling $6.9 million, or $0.48 per share, to adjust accounting entries from prior years. These charges, identified during the course of the review of second quarter results, relate to cost accumulation entries for inventory ($4.0 million), research and development costs ($2.1 million) and other costs ($0.8 million) that were made in prior years. The effect of each of these charges on the financial results of prior years is not material. NOTE 3 -- NET EARNINGS PER SHARE: Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the periods, computed using the treasury stock method for stock options. The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the denominator utilized in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):

7 Cumulative foreign translation adjustment represents the Company's only other comprehensive income item. Cumulative foreign translation adjustment represents unrealized gains/losses in the translation of the financial statements of the Company's subsidiaries in accordance with SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation." The Company has no intention of liquidating the assets of the foreign subsidiaries in the foreseeable future. NOTE 6 -- LITIGATION: Beginning on March 13, 2000, five complaints alleging violations of the federal securities laws were filed against the Company and certain of its former officers in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon. Upon order of the Court, plaintiffs in those actions filed a consolidated complaint on July 24, 2000. The consolidated complaint names the Company, Robert P. Daltry, J. Kenneth Stringer, III, and J. Mark Samper as defendants. The complaint purports to be filed on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company's common stock between March 3, 1999 and March 3, 2000 and alleges that the defendants violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by intentionally issuing false and/or misleading statements regarding the Company's financial results in the Company's SEC filings and in press releases and other public statements. The complaint does not specify the amount of damages that plaintiffs seek. The Company intends to contest the litigation vigorously. The Company was involved in other litigation, investigations of a routine nature and various legal matters during the first six months of 2000 that are being defended and handled in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate results of the matters described above cannot presently be determined, management does not expect that they will have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. Therefore, no adjustments have been made to the accompanying financial statements relative to these matters. NOTE 7 -- INFRAMETRICS MERGER: In conjunction with the merger with Inframetrics, Inc., on March 31, 1999, the Company recognized a one-time charge of $23.8 million consisting of a reserve for duplicative inventories of $20.1 million, transaction related costs of $3.2 million and cost to exit activities of $0.5 million. During the course of 1999 the Company recorded additional costs related to the merger including an increase to the reserve for duplicative inventories of $5.2 million and an increase of costs to exit activities of $5.6 million. Additionally, during the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Company recorded a charge of $1.2 million related to the write-off of certain assets related to the merger. The inventory reserve relates to duplicative product lines created by the merger and was included in cost of goods sold. As of June 30, 2000 the Company had written-off and disposed of inventories totaling $19.5 million. The transaction related costs consisted of investment advisor fees, legal and accounting fees and other direct transaction costs. Such costs were included in combination costs, a separate line item in operating expenses. The cost to exit activities amount relates to estimated shut down costs related to duplicative sales offices in the United Kingdom, Germany and France. As of June 30, 2000 the Company has no remaining accruals related to the transaction costs and cost to exit activities. 8 Consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 of the Company and Inframetrics on a stand-alone basis, excluding one time charges for duplicative inventories created as a result of overlapping product lines, reserve for shutdown of duplicate sales offices and other direct transaction costs are as follows (in thousands):

9 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations: Charges related to prior years. Results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 include charges totaling $6.9 million, or $0.48 per share, to adjust accounting entries from prior years. These charges, identified during the course of the review of second quarter results, relate to cost accumulation entries for inventory ($4.0 million), research and development costs ($2.1 million) and other costs ($0.8 million) that were made in prior years. The effect of each of these charges on the financial results of prior years is not material. Revenue. The Company's revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased 14.2 percent, from $46.3 million in the second quarter of 1999 to $52.9 million in the second quarter of 2000. Commercial revenue declined 5.5 percent, from $27.2 million in the second quarter of 1999 to $25.7 million in the second quarter of 2000. The decrease in commercial revenue was due in part to delays in approval of U.S. export licenses for certain of the Company's thermography products. Revenue from the sale of systems to government customers increased 42.3 percent, from $19.1 million in the second quarter of 1999 to $27.1 million in the second quarter of 2000. The increase in government revenue was primarily due to the deferral of revenue on certain government sales during the first quarter of the year, based upon their contractual terms related to transfer of ownership. Most of these sales were recorded as revenue in the second quarter. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased 4.2 percent, from $85.1 million in the first half of 1999 to $88.7 million in the first half of 2000. Commercial revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 declined 7.3 percent from $55.2 million in the first half of 1999 to $51.2 million in the first half of 2000. The decrease in commercial revenue was due in part to delays in approval of U.S. export licenses for certain of the Company's thermography products. Revenue from the sale of systems to government customers for the six months ended June 30, 2000 totaled $37.5 million, an increase of 25.4 percent from the $29.9 million in revenue generated in the first half of 1999. The increase in government revenue was primarily due to increased deliveries of the Company's Ultra 7000, MilCAM, Sea FLIR and Star SAFIRE thermal imaging systems to government customers. As a percentage of total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, revenue from the sale of thermal imaging systems to the commercial market constituted 48.7 percent of total revenue compared to 58.8 percent for the second quarter of 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, commercial revenue declined to 57.7 percent of total revenue, as compared to 64.9 percent for the first six months of 1999. Revenue from sales outside the United States increased as a percentage of total revenue from 40.5 percent to 42.1 percent for the quarters ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. For the first half of 2000, revenue from sales outside the United States constituted 44.5 percent of total revenue, as compared to 39.8 percent for the first half of 1999. While the percentage of revenue from international sales will continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to the timing of shipments under international and domestic government contracts, management anticipates that revenue from international sales as a percentage of total revenue will continue to comprise a significant percentage of revenue. 10 Gross profit. Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was $24.0 million compared to $24.7 million for the same quarter last year. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit declined to 45.3 percent in the second quarter of 2000 compared to 53.4 percent in the second quarter of 1999. The decline was due to the $4.0 million charge in the quarter to adjust accounting entries from prior years and $0.5 million of current year adjustments. Without theses charge, gross profit would have been 52.9 percent. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $43.6 million compared to $24.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit was 49.2 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to 29.1 percent for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Without the $4.0 million charge to adjust accounting entries from prior years and the current year adjustment, gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the first six months of 2000 would have been 53.7 percent. The primary reason for this significant increase compared to the first six months of 1999 was the inclusion in cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 1999 of a one-time charge of $20.1 million related to duplicate inventories and products which were determined to have reached the end of life, both created by overlapping product lines as a result of the merger with Inframetrics. Without this charge, gross profit as a percentage of revenue would have been 52.7 percent for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Research and development. Research and development expense for the second quarter of 2000 totaled $9.5 million, compared to $6.8 million in the second quarter of 1999. Research and development expense in the second quarter of 2000 includes a $2.1 million charge to adjust accounting entries from prior years. Without this charge, research and development expense as a percentage of revenue decreased from 14.8 percent to 14.0 percent for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. Research and development expense for the first six months of 2000 totaled $16.4 million, an increase from $13.8 million in the first six months of 1999. Without the $2.1 million charge recorded in the second quarter to adjust accounting entries from prior years, research and development expense as a percentage of revenue was 16.2 percent for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. The overall level of research and development expense reflects the continued emphasis on product development and new product introductions. Due to the timing of revenue during the year, research and development expense as a percentage of revenue is typically higher in the first half of the year than on a full year basis. Selling and other operating costs. Selling and other operating costs increased from $14.9 million to $18.9 million for the quarters ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. Selling and other operating costs for the second quarter of 2000 included charges totaling $0.8 million to adjust accounting entries from prior years. The charges included $0.5 million for demo equipment and $0.3 million for sales commissions. Without these charges, selling and other operating costs as a percentage of revenue increased from 32.1 percent in the second quarter of 1999 to 34.2 percent in the second quarter of 2000. The increase in selling and other operating costs also includes approximately $0.6 million of increased audit and legal fees. 11 Selling and other operating costs increased from $29.9 million in the first half of 1999 to $35.8 million in the first half of 2000. Without the $0.8 million of charges to adjust accounting entries from prior years, selling and other operating costs as a percentage of revenue increased from 35.1 percent to 39.4 percent for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. In addition to the charges to adjust accounting entries from prior years, the increase in absolute dollar terms was due to an increase of $0.9 million in audit and legal fees, increased depreciation related to the Company's enterprise resource planning system implemented in April, 1999, and other selling, marketing, and administrative overhead expense increases. Cost reduction initiatives announced in June of this year are expected to yield annualized cost savings of approximately $10 million starting in the third quarter of 2000. Inframetrics Merger. Effective March 30, 1999, the Company completed its merger with Inframetrics, Inc., a privately held infrared imaging company headquartered in Billerica, Massachusetts, by issuing approximately 2.3 million shares of the Company's common stock (including approximately 192,000 shares reserved for exercise of outstanding options) for all the outstanding stock of Inframetrics. Additionally, the Company assumed and paid off approximately $24 million of Inframetrics, Inc.'s short- and long-term debt. In conjunction with the merger, during the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company recorded a one-time charge of $23.8 million. The charge consisted of a $20.1 million inventory reserve due to the creation of duplicative product lines, which is included in cost of goods sold, and $3.7 million of transaction related costs, which are included in combination costs, a separate line in operating costs. During the three months ended June 30, 1999 the Company incurred additional charges of $1.0 million for transaction related costs. These charges and related reserves are more fully discussed in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements. During the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Company recorded a charge of $1.2 million for the write-off of certain assets related to the merger. This charge is reported on the combination costs line in the financial statements. Interest expense. Interest expense increased from $1.0 million in the second quarter of 1999 to $2.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, due to increased debt levels and increased interest rates. Income taxes. The Company recorded no income tax benefit for the loss in three months ended June 30, 2000. Each quarter management assesses the extent and timing of future profitability in order to determine the amount of the deferred tax asset that is more likely than not to be realized in the future. The income tax provision for the second quarter of 1999 resulted in an effective tax rate of 28.3 percent. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.8 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 13.0 percent. For the first six months of 1999, the Company recorded a tax provision of $0.4 million despite having a pre-tax loss of $25.6 million. The lack of tax benefit in the first half of 1999 was primarily due to the fact that certain foreign subsidiaries had taxable income while the combined entities had a net loss. The Company's effective tax rate has historically been below the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to utilization of net operating loss carryforwards, various tax credits, benefits from the utilization of a foreign sales corporation, and state and foreign tax rates. Management expects that the Company's effective tax rate will continue to be below the U.S. Statutory rate. The effective tax rate is very sensitive to the geographic mix of sales and profits, and therefore could be higher or lower in the future depending on the actual profits realized. 12 Liquidity and Capital Resources At June 30, 2000, the Company had short-term borrowings net of cash on hand of $89.7 million compared to $86.6 million at March 31, 2000 and compared to $77.0 million at December 31, 1999. The increase in short-term borrowings during the six months ended June 30, 2000, was principally caused by increased working capital needs. Accounts receivable decreased from $57.8 million at December 31, 1999 to $43.5 million at June 30, 2000. The Company has increased its collection efforts and tightened its credit policies. Days sales outstanding decreased from 112 at December 31, 1999 to 75 at June 30, 2000. The timing of sales, particularly the recording of large system sales, can significantly impact the calculation of days sales outstanding at any point in time. At June 30, 2000 the Company had inventories on hand of $67.6 million compared to $64.4 million at December 31, 1999. The increase was the result of a buildup of materials in anticipation of increased shipments to government customers throughout the balance of the year. The Company's investing activities have consisted primarily of expenditures for fixed assets, which totaled $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The Company has a Credit Agreement with a number of banks that provides it with a $100 million revolving line of credit. Interest on borrowings under the agreement is at a fluctuating rate generally equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% or the prime rate of the primary lender for domestic borrowings, and LIBOR for offshore borrowings. The interest rates on borrowings under the agreement increase as the Company's consolidated debt level increases. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings at June 30, 2000 was 9.6 percent. The agreement allows the Company to elect any time prior to December 1, 2002, to convert the entire principal balance under the agreement into a term loan that would be payable in 24 subsequent equal monthly payments plus interest. The Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company. The Credit Agreement includes negative covenants that, among other things, impose limitations on the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, engage in certain acquisition or disposition transactions, incur lease obligations and make investments, capital expenditures and certain other payments. The Credit Agreement also includes certain financial covenants, including consolidated tangible net worth, interest coverage ratio and leverage ratio. As of December 31, 1999 and for the year then ended, the Company was in violation of certain of these covenants. Pursuant to an amendment to the Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2000, the lenders waived their rights to declare a default based upon such covenant violations as of December 31, 1999 and through December 30, 2000. The amendment to the Credit Agreement also modified the consolidated tangible net worth covenant, added covenants with respect to minimum levels of revenue and EBITDA and increased the interest rates applicable to offshore borrowings under the Credit Agreement. 13 As of March 31, 2000 and for the quarter then ended, the Company was in violation of the new minimum revenue and minimum EBITDA covenants and the consolidated tangible net worth covenant under the Credit Agreement, as amended. As of June 30, 2000 and for the quarter then ended, the Company was in violation of the new minimum EDITDA covenant and the consolidated tangible net worth covenant. As a result of these covenant violations, the lenders have the right at any time to declare the full amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement immediately due and payable. The Company and the lenders have discussed the covenant violations. As of this date, the lenders have not taken any action to enforce their rights under the Credit Agreement, nor have they waived their rights to declare a default based upon such covenant violations. Additionally, the Company, through one of its subsidiaries, has a 50,000,000 Swedish Kroner (approximately $5.8 million) line of credit at 4.3 percent at June 30, 2000. At June 30, 2000, the Company had $95.5 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement and $0.8 million outstanding under the Swedish Kroner line of credit. The use of cash by operating activities in the first half of 2000 was $8.0 million, compared to $3.0 million for the first half of 1999. Use of cash increased as the result of increased working capital needs. The Company believes that its existing cash and available credit facilities, financing available from other sources, continuing efforts to control costs, improved collection of accounts receivable and management of inventory levels will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements for the foreseeable future. Impact of the Year 2000 The Company conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems to identify the systems that could be affected by the Year 2000 issue. The Company identified that the internal manufacturing system acquired by the Company in connection with the acquisition of AGEMA was not Year 2000 compliant, and installed a new enterprise resource planning system, both hardware and software, to correct this deficiency. The Company's existing product line was tested and reviewed to ensure Year 2000 compliance, and the Company's products under development were designed to be Year 2000 compliant. Additionally, the Company evaluated Year 2000 compliance on products from its suppliers and partners. A contingency plan for dealing with the most reasonably likely worst-case scenario was developed. Both internal and external resources were employed to identify, correct or reprogram, and test the systems for Year 2000 compliance. The total cost of the project was approximately $7 million and was funded through existing cash resources. To date, the Company has not encountered any material Year 2000 problems with respect to products, internal systems or any third party products or systems. Revenue Recognition In December 1999, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB 101 provides guidance for public companies on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in their financial statements. The Company recognizes revenue at the time products are shipped to the end customer, all contractual terms are fulfilled and shipping terms indicate title has passed to the customer. 14 The SEC has deferred implementation of SAB 101 to the fourth quarter of 2000. The SEC will allow the cumulative effect of this change, if any, on the Company's quarterly financial results to be reported in our annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000. The Company is still evaluating the impact of implementing SAB 101, including yet to be released interpretations by the SEC staff, and is currently unable to predict if such final interpretations will materially effect the timing and predictability of revenue recognition. Forward-Looking Statements This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company's business, management's beliefs, and assumptions made by management. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "sees," "estimates" and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including, but not limited to, those discussed in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as those discussed from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission fillings and reports. In addition, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, and general domestic and international economic conditions. Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report. If the Company does update or correct one or more forward-looking statement, investors and others should not conclude that the Company will make additional updates or corrections with respect thereto or with respect to other forward-looking statements. 15 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to its short-term and long-term debt obligations. The Company believes that its net income or cash flow exposure relating to rate changes for short- term and long-term debt obligations are immaterial. Interest expense is affected by the general level of U.S. interest rates and/or LIBOR. The Company currently does not hedge any interest rate exposure. The foreign subsidiaries of the Company generally use their local currency as the functional currency. The Company does not currently enter into any foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge certain balance sheet exposures and intercompany balances against future movements in foreign exchange rates. To date, such exposure has been immaterial. The Company does maintain cash balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. If foreign exchange rates were to weaken against the U.S. Dollar, the Company believes that the fair value of these foreign currency amounts would decline by an immaterial amount. 16 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings See Note 6 to the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Item 3. Default Upon Senior Securities As of December 31, 1999 and for the year then ended, the Company was in violation of certain financial covenants under its Credit Agreement. Pursuant to an amendment to the Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2000, the lenders waived their rights to declare a default based upon such covenant violations as of December 31, 1999 and through December 30, 2000. The amendment to the Credit Agreement also modified the consolidated tangible net worth covenant, added covenants with respect to minimum levels of revenue and EBITDA and increased the interest rates applicable to offshore borrowings under the Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2000 and for the quarter then ended, the Company was in violation of the new minimum revenue and minimum EBITDA covenants and consolidated tangible net worth covenant under the Credit Agreement as amended. As of June 30, 2000 and for the quarter then ended, the Company was in violation of the new minimum EDITDA covenant and the consolidated tangible net worth covenant. As a result of these covenant violations, the lenders have the right at any time to declare the full amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement immediately due and payable. The Company and the lenders have discussed the covenant violations. As of this date, the lenders have not taken any action to enforce their rights under the Credit Agreement, nor have they waived their rights to declare a default based upon such covenant violations.
