NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(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, consisting of only normal recurring 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2007.

Note 2. Stock-based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based compensation program that provides equity incentives for employees, consultants and directors. This program includes incentive and non-statutory stock options and restricted stock awards granted under three plans, the FLIR Systems, Inc. 1992 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1992 Plan”), the FLIR Systems, Inc. 1993 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “1993 Plan”) and the FLIR Systems, Inc. 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2002 Plan”). The Company has discontinued issuing option awards out of the 1992 Plan and the 1993 Plan, but previously granted options under those plans remain outstanding until their exercise or expiration.

Stock options granted are either time-based options with vesting schedules ranging from immediate vesting to vesting over three years, or performance-based options with vesting that is contingent upon meeting certain diluted earnings per share growth targets in three independent tranches over a three year period. Stock options generally expire ten years from the grant date. Restricted stock awards are time-based and generally vest over a three year period.

Additionally, the Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) which allows employees to purchase shares of the Company’s Stock at 85% of the fair market value at the lower of either the date of enrollment or the purchase date.

Shares issued as a result of stock option exercises, vesting of restricted stock and ESPP purchases are new shares.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of all stock option awards on the date of grant. Restricted stock awards are valued at the fair market value on the date of grant. The Company recognizes the compensation expense for time-based options and restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each award. The compensation expense for each tranche of performance-based options is recognized during the year the related performance criteria are met because each tranche is independent of the others and if the performance criteria in a particular year are not met, the related tranche never vests.

As of March 31, 2007, the Company had $17,006,000 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years.

The fair value of the stock-based awards, as determined under the Black-Scholes model, granted in the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was estimated with the following weighted-average assumptions:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007		2006
Stock Option Awards:
Risk-free interest rate	4.8	%	4.7	%
Expected dividend yield	0.0	%	0.0	%
Expected term	3.0 years		2.5 years
Expected volatility	39.2	%	39.9	%
Employee Stock Purchase Plan:
Risk-free interest rate	—		—
Expected dividend yield	—		—
Expected term	—		—
Expected volatility	—		—

The Company uses the US Treasury (constant maturity) interest rate on the date of grant as the risk-free interest rate and uses historical volatility as the expected volatility. The Company’s determination of expected term is based on an analysis of historical and expected exercise patterns and vesting schedules of option grants.

There were no shares issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan during the three months ended March 31, 2007. There were 4,537,096 shares available at March 31, 2007 for future issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Note 3. Net Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the weighted shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of stock options, if dilutive, and from the assumed conversion of the $210 million convertible notes. The number of additional shares from the assumed exercise of stock options is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options were exercised and that the proceeds from such exercises were used to acquire shares of common stock at the average market price during the reporting period. The conversion of the convertible notes is assumed to have taken place as of the dates that the convertible notes were issued. In addition, net earnings used for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share is net earnings adjusted for interest costs of the convertible notes, net of statutory tax, as if the conversion had taken place as of the dates that the convertible notes were issued.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the numerator and denominator utilized in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007		2006
Numerator for earnings per share:
Net earnings, as reported	$	26,264	$	12,659
Interest associated with convertible notes, net of tax		1,107		1,094
Net earnings available to common shareholders – diluted	$	27,371	$	13,753
Denominator for earnings per share:
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding		66,042		69,163
Assumed exercises of stock options and vesting of restricted shares, net of shares assumed reacquired under the treasury stock method		2,529		2,685
Assumed conversion of convertible notes		9,463		9,463
Diluted shares outstanding		78,034		81,311

The effect of stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 that aggregated 1,952,000 and 2,337,000 shares, respectively, has been excluded for purposes of diluted earnings per share since the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 9. Credit Agreements

On October 6, 2006, the Company signed a Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., Union Bank of California, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association and other Lenders. The Credit Agreement provides for a $300 million, five-year revolving line of credit. The Company has the right, subject to certain conditions including approval of additional commitments by qualified lenders, to increase the line of credit by an additional $150 million until October 6, 2011. The Credit Agreement includes a $100 million sublimit multicurrency option, permitting the Company and certain designated subsidiaries to borrow in Euro, Kroner, Sterling and other agreed upon currencies. Under the Credit Agreement, borrowings will bear interest based upon the prime lending rate of the Bank of America or Eurodollar rates with a provision for a spread under/over Eurodollar rates based upon the Company’s leverage ratio. At March 31, 2007, the interest rate ranged from 6.10 percent to 8.25 percent. The Credit Agreement contains five financial covenants that require the maintenance of certain leverage ratios, in addition to minimum levels of EBITDA and consolidated net worth, a maximum level of capital expenditures and commencing December 31, 2009 a minimum liquidity of cash and availability under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all assets of the Company. At March 31, 2007, the Company had $28.5 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement and $5.5 million of letters of credit outstanding, which reduces the total available credit.

The Company, through its Sweden subsidiary, has a 30 million Swedish Kroner (approximately $4.3 million) line of credit at 3.95 percent at March 31, 2007. At March 31, 2007, the Company had no amounts outstanding on this line of credit. The 30 million Swedish Kroner line of credit is secured primarily by accounts receivable and inventories of the Company’s Sweden subsidiary and is subject to automatic renewal on an annual basis.

Note 10. Long-Term Debt

In June 2003, the Company issued $210 million of 3.0% senior convertible notes due 2023 in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The net proceeds from the issuance were approximately $203.9 million. Interest is payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1. The holders of the notes may convert all or some of their notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of 45.0612 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes prior to the maturity date in certain circumstances. The Company may redeem for cash all or part of the notes on or after June 8, 2010. The proceeds were used primarily for general corporate purposes, which included the acquisition of Indigo Systems Corporation and other working capital and capital expenditure needs.

Long-term debt consists of the following (in thousands):

	March 31, 2007			December 31, 2006
Convertible notes	$	210,000		$	210,000
Issuance cost of the convertible notes		(2,774	)		(2,993	)
Other long-term debt		15			17
	$	207,241		$	207,024

The Company’s convertible notes are eligible for conversion at the option of the note holders. As of March 31, 2007, no note holders have elected to convert their notes into Company stock.

Note 11. Comprehensive Earnings

Comprehensive earnings include changes in cumulative translation adjustments and additional minimum pension liability adjustments, if any, on the Company’s pension plans that are reflected in shareholders’ equity instead of net earnings. The following table sets forth the calculation of comprehensive earnings for the periods indicated (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007			2006
Net earnings	$	26,264		$	12,659
Translation adjustment		(3,599	)		3,916
Total comprehensive earnings	$	22,665		$	16,575

Translation adjustments represent unrealized gains/losses in the translation of the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company has no intention of liquidating the assets of the foreign subsidiaries in the foreseeable future.

Note 12. Pension Plans

The Company previously offered most of the employees outside the United States participation in a defined benefit pension plan that has been curtailed. In addition, the Company offers a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for certain US executive officers of the Company. These plans are more fully described in Note 16 in the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Components of net periodic benefit costs are as follows (in thousands):

Net periodic pension costs	$	311	$	346

Note 13. Contingencies

The Company has been named as a nominal defendant in four shareholder derivatives cases filed in December 2006 and in January 2007 in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon: The Edward J. Goodman Life Income Trust v. Earl R. Lewis, et al.; Chris Larson v. Earl R. Lewis, et al.; Glenn Hutton v. Earl R. Lewis, et al.; and Paul Zetlmaier v. Earl R. Lewis, et al. Plaintiffs have filed an unopposed motion to consolidate the four lawsuits into one case. The complaints allege that certain stock options granted by the Company were dated improperly, and purport to assert claims under various common law theories and under the federal securities law, and allege the Company is entitled to damages from various individual defendants on a variety of legal theories. The Company may be liable for the costs of defending the claims against the individuals being sued, under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended. As of March 31, 2007, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate these costs.

The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company makes a provision for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company believes it has recorded adequate provisions for any probable and estimable losses.

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”). This statement clarifies the criteria that an individual tax position must satisfy for some or all of the benefits of that position to be recognized in the company’s financial statements. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not, and a measurement attribute for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company has adopted the provisions of FIN 48 and there were no material adjustments in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits upon adoption.

As of January 1, 2007 and March 31, 2007, the Company had $3.6 million of net unrecognized tax benefits of which $3.4 million, net of federal tax benefit on state issues, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. The difference between the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits and the amount that would impact the effective tax rate consists of items that are equity related. The Company does not expect that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next twelve months.

The Company classifies interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of March 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $234,000 of accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions.

The Company currently has the following tax years open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions:

	Tax Years:
US Federal	1999 – 2006
State of Oregon	1999 – 2006
State of Massachusetts	2002 – 2006
State of California	2003 – 2006
Sweden	1998 – 2006
United Kingdom	2005 – 2006
Germany	2002 – 2006

The Commercial Vision Systems segment addresses mainly commercial markets including OEM camera modules, perimeter security, firefighting, marine, automotive, airborne and other transportation. These markets are characterized by rapidly growing volumes driven by declining costs for uncooled infrared technology.

The accounting policies of each of the segments are the same. The Company evaluates performance based upon revenue and earnings from operations. On a consolidated basis, this amount represents earnings from operations as represented in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Other consists of corporate expenses and certain other operating expenses not allocated to the operating segments for management reporting purposes.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding future events and the future results of FLIR Systems, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“FLIR” or the “Company”) that are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s business, management’s beliefs, and assumptions made by FLIR’s 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 other Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. In addition, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions. Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they were made and FLIR 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 updates or corrects one or more forward-looking statements, investors and others should not conclude that the Company will make additional updates or corrections with respect to other forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2007 increased by 37.5 percent, from $117.3 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $161.4 million in the first quarter of 2007.

Thermography revenue increased $8.5 million, or 18.8 percent, from $45.4 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $54.0 million in the first quarter of 2007. The increase in Thermography revenue was primarily due to increased unit sales in our InfraCAM^®, P-series™ and GasFindIR^® product lines.

Government Systems revenue increased $27.8 million, or 52.1 percent, from $53.4 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $81.2 million in the first quarter of 2007. The increase in Government Systems revenue in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 was primarily due to an increase in unit sales across all product lines.

Commercial Vision Systems revenue increased 41.5 percent, from $18.5 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $26.2 million in the first quarter of 2007. The increase in Commercial Vision Systems revenue in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 was also due to increased unit sales across all product lines of the segment.

The timing of deliveries against large contracts, especially for our Government Systems and Commercial Vision Systems products, can give rise to quarter-to-quarter and year-over-year fluctuations in the mix of revenue. Consequently, year-over-year comparisons for any given quarter may not be indicative of comparisons using longer time periods. While we currently expect an overall increase in total annual revenue for 2007 of between 20 percent and 23 percent, the mix of revenue between our three business segments and within certain product categories in our business segments will vary from quarter to quarter.

As a percentage of revenue, international sales were 41.7 percent and 47.9 percent for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. While the percentage of revenue from international sales will continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter partially 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.

At March 31, 2007, we had an order backlog of $280 million. Backlog in the Thermography, Government Systems, and Commercial Vision Systems divisions was $11 million, $216 million and $53 million, respectively, Backlog is defined as orders received for products or services for which a sales agreement is in place and delivery is expected within twelve months.

14

Gross profit. Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 was $89.8 million compared to $60.8 million for the same quarter last year. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit increased from 51.9 percent in the first quarter of 2006 to 55.7 percent in the first quarter of 2007. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to cost efficiencies realized by increased volumes in our manufacturing facilities.

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2007 totaled $18.0 million, compared to $15.2 million in the first quarter of 2006. The increase in research and development expenses was due to the continued investment in new product development in all business segments to enable future growth. As a percentage of revenue, research and development expenses were 11.2 percent and 13.0 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $35.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared to $26.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to the continued growth in the business, including costs associated with new product launches, as well as legal and accounting costs related to the investigation of our historical stock option practices, derivative lawsuits and other legal matters. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue were 22.2 percent and 22.8 percent for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Interest expense. Interest expense for the first quarter of 2007 was $2.7 million, compared to $1.9 million for the same period of 2006. Interest expense is primarily attributable to the accrual of interest on the convertible notes that were issued in June 2003 and the amortization of costs related to the issuance of the notes. The increase in interest expense year over year relates to credit line borrowings in the third quarter of 2006 to fund repurchases of shares of our common stock.

Other income/expense. For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, we recorded other income of $2.4 million, compared to other income of $701,000 for the same period of 2006. The other income in 2007 consists primarily of interest income earned on short-term investments and foreign currency transaction gains.

Income taxes. The income tax provision of $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, represents an effective tax rate of 26.3 percent. We expect the annual effective tax rate for the full year of 2007, to be approximately 27 percent to 29 percent. The effective tax rate is lower than the US Federal tax rate of 35 percent because of lower foreign tax rates, the effect of the current foreign tax credits and other federal and state tax credits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $153.5 million compared to $138.6 million at December 31, 2006. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to cash provided from operations and proceeds from the exercise of stock options partially offset by the repayments of borrowings under our credit line and capital expenditures.

Accounts receivable decreased from $167.5 million at December 31, 2006 to $153.7 million at March 31, 2007. The decrease was primarily attributable to collection of receivables generated from higher sales volumes during the quarter ended December 31, 2006, compared to sales volumes in the quarter ended March 31, 2007.

At March 31, 2007, we had inventories of $149.6 million compared to $135.9 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was primarily due to new product introductions and business growth, including the anticipated shipments for the remainder of 2007.

Cash used in investing activities, principally related to capital expenditures, totaled $7.8 million and $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Capital expenditures during the first three months of 2007 includes equipment and building improvements in Portland, Sweden and Santa Barbara. Capital expenditures during the first three months of 2006 include the purchase and installation of new production equipment in Sweden and building expansion and improvements in Boston, Portland and Sweden.

Accounts payable increased from $40.6 million at December 31, 2006 to $45.2 million at March 31, 2007. The increase primarily relates to the increase in inventories.

15

The current portion of accrued income taxes decreased from $17.3 million at December 31, 2006 to $1.7 million at March 31, 2007. The decrease is primarily due to $14.3 million in payments made to both federal and foreign jurisdictions.

On October 6, 2006, we signed a Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., Union Bank of California, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association and other Lenders. This Credit Agreement replaces our previous credit agreement dated April 28, 2004. The Credit Agreement provides for a $300 million, five-year revolving line of credit. We have the right, subject to certain conditions including approval of additional commitments by qualified lenders, to increase the line of credit by an additional $150 million until October 6, 2011. The Credit Agreement includes a $100 million sublimit multicurrency option, permitting us and certain of our designated subsidiaries to borrow in Euro, Kroner, Sterling and other agreed upon currencies. Under the Credit Agreement, borrowings will bear interest based upon the prime lending rate of the Bank of America or Eurodollar rates with a provision for a spread under/over Eurodollar rates based upon the Company’s leverage ratio. At March 31, 2007, the interest rate ranged from 6.10 percent to 8.25 percent. The Credit Agreement contains five financial covenants that require the maintenance of certain leverage ratios, in addition to minimum levels of EBITDA and consolidated net worth, a maximum level of capital expenditures and commencing December 31, 2009 a minimum liquidity of cash and availability under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all assets of the Company. At March 31, 2007, we had $28.5 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement and were in compliance with all the financial covenants. In addition, we had $5.5 million of letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement at March 31, 2007, which reduces the total available credit.

Our Sweden subsidiary has a 30 million Swedish Kroner (approximately $4.3 million) line of credit at 3.95 percent at March 31, 2007. At March 31, 2007, the Company had no amounts outstanding on this line of credit. The 30 million Swedish Kroner line of credit is secured primarily by accounts receivable and inventories of the Sweden subsidiary and is subject to automatic renewal on an annual basis.

In June 2003, we issued $210 million of 3.0% senior convertible notes due 2023 in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The net proceeds from the issuance were approximately $203.9 million. Interest is payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The holders of the notes may convert all or some of their notes into shares of our common stock at a conversion rate of 45.0612 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes prior to the maturity date in certain circumstances. We may redeem for cash all or part of the notes on or after June 8, 2010. The proceeds were used primarily for general corporate purposes, which included the acquisition of Indigo and other working capital and capital expenditure needs.

The convertible notes are eligible for conversion at the option of the note holders. As of March 31, 2007, no note holders have elected to convert their notes into our common stock. We do not anticipate any conversions before 2010.

We believe that our existing cash combined with the cash we anticipate to generate from operating activities and our available credit facilities and financing available from other sources will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. We do not have any significant capital commitments for the coming year nor are we aware of any significant events or conditions that are likely to have a material impact on our liquidity.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”). This statement clarifies the criteria that an individual tax position must satisfy for some or all of the benefits of that position to be recognized in the company’s financial statements. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not, and a measurement attribute for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company has adopted the provisions of FIN 48 and there were no material adjustments in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company reaffirms the critical accounting policies and our use of estimates as reported in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. As described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the determination of fair value for stock-based compensation awards requires the use of management’s estimates and judgments.
