NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED

NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Trimble Navigation Limited (the Company), incorporated in California in 1981, provides positioning solutions to commercial and government users in a large number of markets. These markets include surveying, agriculture, construction, asset management, mapping, and mobile resource management.

The Company has a 52-53 week fiscal year, ending on the Friday nearest to December 31, which for fiscal 2008 was January 2, 2009. The first quarter of fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008 ended on April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, respectively. Fiscal 2009 is a 52-week year and fiscal 2008 was a 53-week year. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to the Company’s fiscal year and fiscal periods.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Noncontrolling interests represent the minority shareholders’ proportionate share of the net assets and results of operations of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2009 is derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Trimble Navigation Limited for fiscal year 2008. Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying financial data as of April 3, 2009 and for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008 has been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of April 3, 2009, results of operations for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008 and cash flows for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, as applicable, have been made. The results of operations for the three months ended April 3, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods. Individual segment revenue may be affected by seasonal buying patterns and general economic conditions.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the company in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates.

NOTE 2. UPDATES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting polices during the three months ended April 3, 2009 from those disclosed in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Updates to recent accounting standards as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2009 are as follows:

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value within GAAP, and expands the disclosures regarding fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2 deferring the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 in its first quarter of fiscal 2008, except for those items specifically deferred under FSP No. SFAS 157-2, which were adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase. SFAS No. 141(R) also sets forth the disclosures required to be made in the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, the Company adopted this standard in its first quarter of fiscal 2009. The Company expects SFAS No. 141(R) will have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, but the nature and magnitude of the specific effects will depend largely upon the nature and size of the Company’s business combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) did not have a material impact in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

Table of Contents

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51”. SFAS 160 changed the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which were recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity. This new consolidation method significantly changed the accounting for transactions with minority interest holders. SFAS 160 required retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for previously existing minority interests. All other requirements of SFAS 160 are applied prospectively. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and, as such, the Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”, which requires enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged and, as such, the Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The adoption of SFAS 161 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

NOTE 3. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Stock Repurchase Activities

In January 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (“2008 Stock Repurchase Program”), authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $250 million of Trimble’s common stock under this program. During the three months ended March 28, 2008, the Company repurchased approximately 968,000 shares of common stock in open market purchases at an average price of $26.71 per share, for a total of $25.9 million. To date, the Company has repurchased approximately 4,243,000 shares of common stock in open market purchases at an average price of $29.67 per share, for a total of $125.9 million. The purchase price was reflected as a decrease to common stock based on the average stated value per share with the remainder to retained earnings. No shares of common stock were repurchased during the three months ended April 3, 2009. Common stock repurchases under the program were recorded based upon the trade date for accounting purposes. All common shares repurchased under this program have been retired. As of April 3, 2009, the 2008 Stock Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $124.1 million. The timing and actual number of future shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, regulatory requirements, capital availability, and other market conditions. The program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without public notice.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under its stock participation plans at fair value, in accordance with SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS 123(R) requires stock-based compensation to be estimated using the fair value on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is expected to vest is recognized as expense over the related employees’ requisite service periods in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense, net of tax, related to employee stock-based compensation included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in accordance with SFAS 123(R) for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008.

Table of Contents

Options

Stock option expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of the stock option that is expected to vest during the period. The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using a binomial valuation model. The Black-Scholes model was used to value those options granted prior to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005. Similar to the Black-Scholes model, the binomial model takes into account variables such as volatility, dividend yield rate, and risk free interest rate. For options granted during the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, the following weighted average assumptions were used:


	Three Months Ended
	April 3,			March 28,
	2009			2008
Expected dividend yield		--			--
Expected stock price volatility		48.8	%		35.9	%
Risk free interest rate		2.4	%		4.7	%
Expected life of option	3.92 years			4.1 years

Expected Dividend Yield – The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts.

Expected Stock Price Volatility – The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on a combination of implied volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock and historical volatility, commensurate with the expected life of the stock options.

Expected Risk Free Interest Rate – The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected life of the stock options.

Expected Life Of Option – The Company’s expected life represents the period that the Company’s stock options are expected to be outstanding and is determined based on historical experience of similar stock options with consideration to the contractual terms of the stock options, vesting schedules, and expectations of future employee behavior.

NOTE 4. JOINT VENTURES

Caterpillar Trimble Control Technologies Joint Venture

On April 1, 2002, Caterpillar Trimble Control Technologies LLC (CTCT), a joint venture formed by the Company and Caterpillar, began operations. CTCT develops advanced electronic guidance and control products for earth moving machines in the construction and mining industries. The joint venture is 50% owned by the Company and 50% owned by Caterpillar, with equal voting rights. The joint venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the Company’s share of profits and losses are included in Income from joint ventures in the Non-operating income (expense), net section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months ended April 3, 2009, the Company recorded $0.7 million as its proportionate share of CTCT net income. During the comparable period of 2008, the Company recorded $1.8 million, as its proportionate share of CTCT net income. During the fiscal quarters ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, there were no dividends received from CTCT. The carrying amount of the investment in CTCT was $7.7 million at April 3, 2009 and $7.0 million at January 2, 2009, and is included in Other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company acts as a contract manufacturer for CTCT. Products are manufactured based on orders received from CTCT and are sold at direct cost, plus a mark-up for the Company’s overhead costs to CTCT. CTCT then resells products at cost, plus a mark-up in consideration for CTCT’s research and development efforts to both Caterpillar and to the Company for sales through their respective distribution channels. Generally, the Company sells products through its after-market dealer channel, and Caterpillar sells products for factory and dealer installation. CTCT does not have net inventory on its balance sheet in that the resale of products to Caterpillar and the Company occur simultaneously when the products are purchased from the Company. During the three months ended April 3, 2009, the Company recorded $0.9 million of revenue and $0.8 million of cost of sales for the manufacturing of products sold by the Company to CTCT and then sold through the Caterpillar distribution channel. During the comparable three month period of fiscal 2008, the Company recorded $2.6 million of revenue and $2.3 million of cost of sales. In addition, during the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, the Company recorded $4.5 million and $6.0 million in net cost of sales for the manufacturing of products sold by the Company to CTCT and then repurchased by the Company upon sale through the Company’s distribution channel.

Table of Contents

In addition, the Company received reimbursement of employee-related costs from CTCT for company employees dedicated to CTCT or performance of work for CTCT totaling $2.7 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, respectively. The reimbursements were offset against operating expense.

At April 3, 2009 and January 2, 2009, the Company had amounts due to and from CTCT. Receivables and payables to CTCT are settled individually with terms comparable to other non-related parties. The amounts due to and from CTCT are presented on a gross basis in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At April 3, 2009 and January 2, 2009, the receivables from CTCT were $4.6 million and $4.1 million, respectively, and are included within Accounts receivable, net, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of the same dates, the payables due to CTCT were $4.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively, and are included within Accounts payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Nikon-Trimble Joint Venture

On March 28, 2003, Nikon-Trimble Co., Ltd (Nikon-Trimble), a joint venture, was formed by the Company and Nikon Corporation. The joint venture began operations in July 2003 and is 50% owned by the Company and 50% owned by Nikon, with equal voting rights. It focuses on the design and manufacture of surveying instruments including mechanical total stations and related products.

The joint venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the Company’s share of profits and losses are included in Income from joint ventures in the Non-operating income (expense), net section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, the Company recorded a loss of $0.5 million and a profit of $0.2 million, respectively, as its proportionate share of Nikon-Trimble net income. During the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008, there were no dividends received from Nikon-Trimble. The carrying amount of the investment in Nikon-Trimble was $13.5 million at April 3, 2009 and $13.9 million at January 2, 2009, and is included in Other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Nikon-Trimble is the distributor in Japan for Nikon and the Company’s products. The Company is the exclusive distributor outside of Japan for Nikon branded survey products. For products sold by the Company to Nikon-Trimble, revenue is recognized by the Company on a sell-through basis from Nikon-Trimble to the end customer.

The terms and conditions of the sales of products from the Company to Nikon-Trimble are comparable with those of the standard distribution agreements which the Company maintains with its dealer channel and margins earned are similar to those from third party dealers. Similarly, the purchases of product by the Company from Nikon-Trimble are made on terms comparable with the arrangements which Nikon maintained with its international distribution channel prior to the formation of the joint venture with the Company. During the three months ended April 3, 2009, the Company recorded $3.5 million of revenue and $2.1 million of cost of sales for the manufacturing of products sold by the Company to Nikon-Trimble.

NOTE 7. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company is a designer and distributor of positioning solutions enabled by GPS, optical, laser, and wireless communications technology. The Company provides products for diverse applications in its targeted markets.

To achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages, the Company manages its operations in the following four segments:

Engineering and Construction — Consists of products currently used by survey and construction professionals in the field for positioning, data collection, field computing, data management, and machine guidance and control. The applications served include surveying, road, runway, construction, site preparation, and building construction.

Field Solutions — Consists of products that provide solutions in a variety of agriculture and geographic information systems (GIS) applications. In agriculture, these include precise land leveling and machine guidance systems. In GIS these include handheld devices and software that enable the collection of data on assets for a variety of governmental and private entities.

Mobile Solutions — Consists of products that enable end users to monitor and manage their mobile assets by communicating location and activity-relevant information from the field to the office. The Company offers a range of products that address a number of sectors of this market including truck fleets, security, and public safety vehicles.

Advanced Devices — The various operations that comprise this segment are aggregated on the basis that no single operation accounts for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue, operating income, and assets. This segment is comprised of the Component Technologies, Military and Advanced Systems, Applanix, and Trimble Outdoors businesses.

The Company evaluates each of its segment's performance and allocates resources based on segment operating income from operations before income taxes and some corporate allocations. The Company and each of its segments employ consistent accounting policies.

The following table presents revenue, operating income, and identifiable assets for the four segments. Operating income is revenue less cost of sales and operating expense, excluding general corporate expense, amortization of purchased intangibles, amortization of inventory step-up charges, in-process research and development expense, merger and acquisition charges, restructuring charges, non-operating income (expense) net, and income tax provision. The identifiable assets that the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker, its Chief Executive Officer, views by segment are accounts receivable and inventories.

Credit Facilities

On July 28, 2005, the Company entered into a $200 million unsecured revolving credit agreement (the 2005 Credit Facility) with a syndicate of 10 banks with The Bank of Nova Scotia as the administrative agent. On February 16, 2007, the Company amended its existing $200 million unsecured revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of 11 banks with The Bank of Nova Scotia as the administrative agent (the 2007 Credit Facility). Under the 2007 Credit Facility, the Company exercised the option in the existing credit agreement to increase the availability under the revolving credit line by $100 million, for an aggregate availability of up to $300 million, and extended the maturity date of the revolving credit line by 18 months, from July 2010 to February 2012. Up to $25 million of the availability under the revolving credit line may be used to issue letters of credit, and up to $20 million may be used for paying off other debts or loans. The maximum leverage ratio under the 2007 Credit Facility is 3.00:1.00. The funds available under the new 2007 Credit Facility may be used by the Company for acquisitions, stock repurchases, and general corporate purposes. As of August 20, 2008, the Company amended its 2007 Credit Facility to allow it to redeem, retire or purchase common stock of the Company. In addition, the definition of the fixed charge was amended to exclude the impact of redemptions, retirements, or purchases common stock of the Company from the fixed charges coverage ratio.

In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal 2007 the Company incurred a five-year term loan under the 2007 Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million, which was repaid in full during fiscal 2008. As of April 3, 2009, the Company had an outstanding balance on the revolving credit line of $151.0 million which was drawn down in the third and the fourth quarters of fiscal 2008.

The Company may borrow funds under the 2007 Credit Facility in U.S. Dollars or in certain other currencies, and borrowings will bear interest, at the Company's option, at either: (i) a base rate, based on the administrative agent's prime rate, plus a margin of between 0% and 0.125%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of its most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) a reserve-adjusted rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR), Stockholm Interbank Offered Rate (STIBOR), or other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 0.625% and 1.125%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. The Company's obligations under the 2007 Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.

The 2007 Credit Facility contains customary affirmative, negative, and financial covenants including, among other requirements, negative covenants that restrict the Company's ability to dispose of assets, create liens, incur indebtedness, repurchase stock, pay dividends, make acquisitions, make investments, enter into mergers and consolidations and make capital expenditures, within certain limitations, and financial covenants that require the maintenance of leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. The 2007 Credit Facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, and events constituting a change of control. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, interest on the obligations will accrue at an increased rate and the lenders may accelerate the Company's obligations under the 2007 Credit Facility, however that acceleration will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of default. As of April 3, 2009, the Company was in compliance with all financial debt covenants.

Notes Payable

As of April 3, 2009 and January 2, 2009, the Company had notes payable totaling approximately $632,000 and $588,000, respectively, primarily consisting of government loans to foreign subsidiaries.

Leases and other commitments

The estimated future minimum operating lease commitments as of April 3, 2009, are as follows (Dollars in thousands):

2009 (Remaining)	$	14,229
2010		14,600
2011		9,843
2012		7,389
2013		2,591
Thereafter		849
Total	$	49,501

Additionally, as of April 3, 2009, the Company had acquisition-related earn-outs of $7.0 million and holdbacks of $20.7 million recorded in Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities. The maximum remaining payments, including the $7.0 million and $20.7 million recorded, will not exceed $63.6 million. The remaining payments are based upon targets achieved or events occurring over time that would result in amounts paid that may be lower than the maximum remaining payments. The remaining earn-outs and holdbacks are payable through 2012.

At April 3, 2009, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $59.0 million. These unconditional purchase obligations primarily represent open non-cancelable purchase orders for material purchases with the Company’s vendors. Purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancelable without penalty. These unconditional purchase obligations are related primarily to inventory and other items.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As discussed in Note 2, SFAS No. 157, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires enhanced disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value, became effective for the Company beginning in its first quarter of fiscal 2008. Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instruments’ complexity.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, defined by SFAS No. 157 are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, and are as follows:

Level I – Observable inputs such as unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level II – Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level III – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized in the tables below based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations.

	Fair Values as of April 3, 2009

Total	$	-	$	8,498	$	-	$	8,498

(1)

The Company may invest some of its cash and cash equivalents in highly liquid investments such as U.S. Treasury bills. The fair values are determined using observable quoted prices in active markets. U.S. Treasury bills are included in Cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(2)

The Company maintains a self-directed, non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain executives and other highly compensated employees. The investment assets and liabilities included in Level II are valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities are included in Other non-current assets and Other non-current liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(3)

Derivative assets and liabilities included in Level II primarily represent forward currency exchange contracts. We enter into these contracts to minimize the short-term impact of foreign currency fluctuations on certain trade and inter-company receivables and payables. The derivatives are not designated as hedging instruments under SFAS 133. The fair values are determined using inputs based on observable quoted prices. Derivative assets and liabilities are included in Other current assets and Other current liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 10. PRODUCT WARRANTIES

The Company accrues for warranty costs as part of its cost of sales based on associated material product costs, technical support labor costs, and costs incurred by third parties performing work on the Company's behalf. The Company’s expected future costs are primarily estimated based upon historical trends in the volume of product returns within the warranty period and the costs to repair or replace the equipment. The products sold are generally covered by a warranty for periods ranging from 90 days to three years, and in some instances up to 5.5 years.

Table of Contents

While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage, and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage, or service delivery costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be required.

Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability during the three months ended April 3, 2009 are as follows (Dollars in thousands):

Balance as of January 2, 2009	$	13,332
Accruals for warranties issued		5,092
Changes in estimates		1,685
Warranty settlements (in cash or in kind)		(5,902	)
Balance as of April 3, 2009	$	14,207

NOTE 11. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following data was used in computing earnings per share and the effect on the weighted-average number of shares of potentially dilutive common stock.

Basic earnings per share	$	0.15	$	0.33
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.14	$	0.32

For the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and the first quarter of fiscal 2008 the Company excluded 6.3 million shares and 2.6 million shares of outstanding stock options, respectively, from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of these stock options were greater than or equal to the average market value of the common shares during the respective periods. Inclusion of these shares would be antidilutive. These options could be included in the calculation in the future if the average market value of the common shares increases and is greater than the exercise price of these options.

NOTE 12: RESTRUCTURING CHARGES:

Restructuring expense for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008 was as follows:

	Three Months Ended

Severance and benefits	$	4,488	$	-

Table of Contents

During the three months ended April 3, 2009, restructuring expense of $4.5 million was related to decisions to streamline processes and reduce the cost structure of the Company, with approximately 159 employees affected worldwide. As a result of the decisions made in the first quarter of 2008, the Company expects restructuring activities to result in additional restructuring expense totaling approximately $0.3 million through the fourth quarter of 2009. Of the total restructuring expense, $3.6 million is shown as a separate line within Operating expense and $0.9 million is included within Cost of sales on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. There was no restructuring expense recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.

Restructuring liability:

The following table summarizes the restructuring activity for the three months ended April 3, 2009 (Dollars in thousands):

Balance as of January 2, 2009	$	1,917
Charges		4,488
Payments		(2,423	)
Adjustment		(56	)
Balance as of April 3, 2009	$	3,926

The $3.9 million restructuring accrual consists of severance and benefits and is included in Other current liabilities. It is expected to be paid through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009.

NOTE 13: INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended April 3, 2009 was 25.0%, as compared to 33.0% for the three months ended March 28, 2008.

The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income tax. The Company has substantially concluded all U.S. federal and state income tax matters for years through 1992. Non-U.S. income tax matters have been concluded for years through 2000. The Company is currently in various stages of multiple year examinations by Federal, State, and foreign taxing authorities. The Company does not anticipate a significant impact to the unrecognized tax benefits balance under FIN 48 with respect to current tax examinations. Although the timing of the resolution and/or the closure on audits is highly uncertain, the Company does not believe that the unrecognized tax benefits would materially change in the next twelve months.

The amount of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits under FIN 48 (net of the federal benefit on state issues) that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in any future period are $38.2 million and $37.3 million at April 3, 2009 and January 2, 2009, respectively. The unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in Other non-current liabilities and within the deferred tax accounts in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefit liabilities include interest and penalties at April 3, 2009 and January 2, 2009, of $4.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively, which were recorded in Other non-current liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On September 30, 2008, the State of California enacted Assembly Bill 1452 into law which among other provisions, suspends net operating loss deductions for 2008 and 2009 and extends the carryforward period of any net operating losses not utilized due to such suspension, adopts the federal 20-year net operating loss carryforward period, phases-in the federal two-year net operating loss carryback periods beginning in 2011, and limits the utilization of tax credits to the extent of 50 percent of a taxpayer’s tax liability before tax credits.

The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, Energy Improvement and Extension Act of 2008, and Tax Extenders and Alternative Minimum Tax Relief Act of 2008 (HR1424) were signed into law on October 3, 2008. This legislation includes a provision that retroactively extends the research tax credit from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2009. The impact in 2008 was a tax benefit of $1.9 million and an expected tax benefit of $1.6 million in 2009.

As of February 20, 2009, California enacted elective legislation under CR & TC 25128.5 to use the single sales factor apportionment formula. The impact of this legislation resulted in a tax benefit of $0.8 million in the quarter ended April 3, 2009.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U. S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product returns, doubtful accounts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, restructuring costs, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the amount and timing of revenue and expense and the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There have been no changes to our significant accounting polices during the three months ended April 3, 2009 from those disclosed in our 2008 Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Updates to recent accounting standards as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2009 are as follows:

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value within GAAP, and expands the disclosures regarding fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2 deferring the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. We adopted SFAS No. 157 in its first quarter of fiscal 2008, except for those items specifically deferred under FSP No. SFAS 157-2, which were adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase. SFAS No. 141(R) also sets forth the disclosures required to be made in the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, we adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. We expect SFAS No. 141(R) will have an impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, but the nature and magnitude of the specific effects will depend largely upon the nature and size of our business combinations. However, SFAS No. 141(R) did not have a material impact in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51”. SFAS 160 changed the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which were recharacterized as noncontrolling interests (NCI) and classified as a component of equity. This new consolidation method significantly changed the accounting for transactions with minority interest holders. SFAS 160 required retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for previously existing minority interests. All other requirements of SFAS 160 are applied prospectively. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and, as such, we adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”, which requires enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged, as such, we adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The adoption of SFAS 161 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

EXECUTIVE LEVEL OVERVIEW

Trimble’s focus is on combining positioning technology with wireless communication and application capabilities to create system-level solutions that enhance productivity and accuracy for our customers. The majority of our markets are end-user markets, including engineering and construction firms, governmental organizations, public safety workers, farmers and companies who must manage fleets of mobile workers and assets. In our Advanced Devices segment, we also provide components to original equipment manufacturers to incorporate into their products. In the end user markets, we provide a system that includes a hardware platform that may contain software and customer support. Some examples of our solutions include products that automate and simplify the process of surveying land, products that automate the utilization of equipment such as tractors and bulldozers, products that enable a company to manage its mobile workforce and assets, and products that allow municipalities to manage their fixed assets. In addition, we also provide software applications on a stand-alone basis. For example, we provide software for project management on construction sites.

Solutions targeted at the end-user make up a significant majority of our revenue. To create compelling products, we must attain an understanding of the end users’ needs and work flow, and how location-based technology can enable that end user to work faster, more efficiently, and more accurately. We use this knowledge to create highly innovative products that change the way work is done by the end-user. With the exception of our Mobile Solutions and Advanced Devices segments, our products are generally sold through a dealer channel, and it is crucial that we maintain a proficient global, third-party distribution channel.

We continued to execute our strategy with a series of actions that can be summarized in four categories.

Reinforcing our position in existing markets

* We believe these markets provide us with additional, substantial potential for substituting our technology for traditional methods. We are continuing to develop new products and to strengthen our distribution channels in order to expand our market opportunity. In our Field Solutions Segment, we introduced a Variable Rate Application Option for our EZ Guidance 500 Systems, new AgGPS Autopilot platform kits for tractors, combines and sprayers, as well as the new Ag 162/262 Receivers that feature the Trimble proprietary Transcend Positioning Technology. We also enhanced our Utility Center Software and the Trident-3D data capture and analyst software for mobile mapping applications. In our Engineering and Construction segment, we introduced a new portfolio of Robotic Total Stations (RTS555, RTS655, and RTS633) for construction layout applications, the new Nomad 800X series of rugged handhelds, the HV301G Green Beam Laser, as well as the Spectra Precision Laser LL1100 and LR20. Further enhancements to the Trimble® GCS900 Grade Control System, the Construction Manager software, and the Real Time Kinematic (RTK) engine GPS firmware were also made available. In our Mobile Solutions segment, we announced that Windstream Corporation and DirectSat USA are rolling out the Trimble GeoManager solution. All of these products strengthened our competitive position and created new value for the user.

Extending our position in existing markets through new product categories

* We are utilizing the strength of the Trimble brand in our markets to expand our revenue by bringing new products to existing users. In our Field Solutions segment, we introduced the Ag FmX Display with Dual Integrated GNSS Receivers for Precision Agriculture Applications. In our Engineering and Construction segment, we launched the Trimble Tablet - a rugged fully connected handheld computer, the Trimble Access software - a new field and office solution for surveyors, and the Trimble Assistant - a subscription service that allows Trimble dealers to take control of internet enabled Trimble device for trouble shooting or training. We also introduced the Trimble PCS400 Paving Control System, an automatic screed control system that can improve the accuracy and productivity of asphalt paving applications. We also expanded the Trimble VRS Now service to Illinois and Iowa, as well as launched the VRS I-Scope service in Europe. These services help simplify project scheduling and asset management by enabling subscribers to track and manage their assets in real-time without the need for base station hardware and incremental GNSS investment. Two new GPS receivers designed specifically for marine construction applications (Trimble SPS361 and SPS461) were also introduced. These are some examples of new products brought to existing markets.

Bringing existing technology to new markets

* We continue to reinforce our position in existing markets and position ourselves in newer markets that will serve as important sources of future growth. Our efforts are focused in Africa, China, India, the Middle-East and Russia. We announced a GPS software technology licensing agreement with Marvell, a leader in the development of storage, communications and consumer silicon. The licensing agreement will enable Marvell to provide customers with comprehensive GPS solutions based on innovative architectures that are tailored for high performance and low overall system power consumption.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The following table is a summary of revenue, gross margin, and operating income for the periods indicated and should be read in conjunction with the narrative descriptions below.

	Three Months Ended
	April 3,			March 28,
	2009			2008
(Dollars in thousands)
Total consolidated revenue	$	288,954		$	355,296
Gross margin	$	143,958		$	174,376
Gross margin %		49.8	%		49.1	%
Total consolidated operating income	$	24,252		$	58,040
Operating income %		8.4	%		16.3	%

Revenue

In the three months ended April 3, 2009, total revenue decreased by $66.3 million or 19%, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008. The decrease was primarily due to slower sales in the Engineering and Construction segment. Engineering and Construction revenue decreased $66.5 million, Field Solutions increased $11.1 million, Mobile Solutions decreased $5.7 million, and Advanced Devices decreased $5.2 million, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008. The revenue decrease was primarily due to recessionary conditions in the U.S. and European markets in Engineering and Construction, unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by new product sales, increased agricultural sales, as well as the impact of acquisitions.

Gross Margin

Gross margin varies due to a number of factors including product mix, pricing, distribution channel, production volumes, and foreign currency translations.

Gross margin decreased by $30.4 million for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to the revenue shortfall. Gross margin as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended April 3, 2009 was 49.8%, as compared to 49.1% for the three months ended March 28, 2008. The slight increase in gross margin percentage for the three month period was driven by a greater percentage of higher margin products sold.

Operating Income

Operating income decreased by $33.8 million for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Operating income as a percentage of total revenue was 8.4% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to 16.3% for the three months ended March 28, 2008. The decrease in operating income percentage for the three month period was primarily due to lower revenue in Engineering and Construction and restructuring charges, partially offset by lower expense and higher gross margin, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

Results by Segment

To achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages in our targeted markets, we manage our operations in the following four segments: Engineering and Construction, Field Solutions, Mobile Solutions, and Advanced Devices. Operating income equals net revenue less cost of sales and operating expense, excluding general corporate expense, amortization of purchased intangibles, amortization of inventory step-up charges, in-process research and development expense, merger and acquisition charges, restructuring charges, non-operating income (expense) net, and income tax provision.

Engineering and Construction

Engineering and Construction revenue decreased by $66.5 million or 34% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008. Segment operating income decreased $34.4 million or 93% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008.

The revenue decline for the three months ended April 3, 2009 was primarily driven by recessionary conditions in the U.S. and European markets. Segment operating income decreased primarily due to the revenue shortfall and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates.

Field Solutions

Field Solutions revenue increased by $11.1million or 13% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008. Segment operating income increased by $7.1 million or 20% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008.

Table of Contents

The revenue increase for the three month periods ended April 3, 2009 was driven by the introduction of new agricultural products, increased sales worldwide, and the impact of acquisitions. Operating income increased primarily due to higher revenue, gross margin improvement, and operating expense control.

Mobile Solutions

Mobile Solutions revenue decreased by $5.7 million or 13% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008. Segment operating income increased $0.7 million or 28% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008.

Revenue declined primarily due to the impact in the prior year of the completion of deliverables for two large contracts. The increase in operating income was primarily due to gross margin improvement and lower spending due to operating expense control.

Advanced Devices

Advanced Devices revenue decreased by $5.2 million or 18% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008. Segment operating income decreased by $0.4 million or 8% for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2008.

The decrease in revenue was driven by slower sales in Component Technologies and Applanix. Operating income was slightly down due to the decrease in revenue, partially offset by gross margin improvement and lower spending due to operating expense control.

Research and Development, Sales and Marketing, and General and Administrative Expenses

Research and development (R&D), sales and marketing (S&M), and general and administrative (G&A) expense are summarized in the following table:

	Three Months Ended
	April 3,			March 28,
	2009			2008
(Dollars in thousands)

Research and development	$	34,137		$	37,345
Percentage of revenue		12	%		11	%
Sales and marketing		48,935			51,158
Percentage of revenue		17	%		14	%
General and administrative		26,042			22,690
Percentage of revenue		9	%		6	%
Total	$	109,114		$	111,193
Percentage of revenue		38	%		31	%

Overall, R&D, S&M, and G&A expense decreased by approximately $2.1 million for the three months ended April 3, 2009, as compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2008.

Research and development expense decreased by $3.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2008, primarily due to foreign currency exchange rates and decreased compensation related expense, partially offset by the inclusion of expense from acquisitions not included in the prior year. All of our R&D costs have been expensed as incurred. Costs of software developed for external sale subsequent to reaching technical feasibility were not considered material and were expensed as incurred. Spending overall was at approximately 12% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to 11% in the corresponding period of fiscal 2008.

* We believe that the development and introduction of new products are critical to our future success and we expect to continue active development of new products.

Sales and marketing expense decreased by $2.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to the corresponding period of fiscal 2008. The decrease was primarily due to foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by the inclusion of expense from acquisitions not applicable in the prior year, and trade show expense. Spending overall was at approximately 17% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to 14% in the corresponding period of fiscal 2008.

* Our future growth will depend in part on the timely development and continued viability of the markets in which we currently compete, as well as our ability to continue to identify and develop new markets for our products.

Table of Contents

General and administrative expense increased by $3.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2008 primarily due to the inclusion of expense from acquisitions not applicable in the prior year and bad debt expense, partially offset by foreign currency exchange rates. Spending overall was at approximately 9% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to 6% in the corresponding period of fiscal 2008.

Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets

Amortization of purchased intangible assets was $12.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to $10.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Of the total $12.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, $7.0 million is presented as a separate line within Operating expense and $5.3 million is included within Cost of sales on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The increase was due primarily to acquisitions not included in the corresponding period of fiscal 2008, primarily SECO, RolleiMetric, TruCount, TopoSys, and Rawson. As of April 3, 2009, future amortization of intangible assets is expected to be $37.8 million during the remaining three quarters of fiscal 2009, $48.5 million during 2010, $43.4 million during 2011, $36.0 million during 2012, $32.2 million during 2013, and $24.8 million thereafter.

Restructuring Charges

Restructuring expense for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 2008 was as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	April 3,		March 28,
(Dollars in thousands)	2009		2008


Severance and benefits	$	4,488	$	-

During the three months ended April 3, 2009, restructuring expense of $4.5 million was related to decisions to streamline processes and reduce the cost structure of the Company, with approximately 159 employees affected worldwide. As a result of the decisions made in the first quarter of 2008, we expect restructuring activities to result in additional restructuring expense totaling approximately $0.3 million through the fourth quarter of 2009. Of the total restructuring expense, $3.6 million is presented as a separate line within Operating expense and $0.9 million is included within Cost of sales on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. There was no restructuring expense recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.

Restructuring liability:

The following table summarizes the restructuring activity for the three months ended April 3, 2009 (Dollars in thousands):

Balance as of January 2, 2009	$	1,917
Charges		4,488
Payments		(2,423	)
Adjustment		(56	)
Balance as of April 3, 2009	$	3,926

The $3.9 million restructuring accrual consists of severance and benefits and is included in Other current liabilities. It is expected to be paid through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009.

Non-operating Income (Expense), Net

The components of non-operating income (expense), net, are as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	April 3,			March 28,
	2009			2008
(Dollars in thousands)

Interest income	$	199		$	457
Interest expense		(493	)		(762	)
Foreign currency transaction gain, net		184			968
Income from joint ventures		168			2,015
Other expense, net		(714	)		(907	)
Total non-operating income (expense), net	$	(656	)	$	1,771

Table of Contents

The non-operating income (expense), net decreased $2.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower income from joint ventures and a decrease in foreign exchange gains.

Income Tax Provision

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended April 3, 2009 was 25.0%, as compared to 33.0% for the three months ended March 28, 2008. The 2009 and 2008 first quarter fiscal rate is lower than the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% primarily due to the geographical mix of our pre-tax income.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES

Other than lease commitments incurred in the normal course of business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, we do not have any interest in, or relationship with, any special purpose entities.

In the normal course of business to facilitate sales of its products, we indemnify other parties, including customers, lessors, and parties to other transactions with us, with respect to certain matters. We have agreed to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors, and our bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to our agents.

It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by us under these agreements were not material and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of April 3, 2009 and January 2, 2009.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of April 3, 2009, cash and cash equivalents totaled $146.8 million as compared to $147.5 million at January 2, 2009. Debt was $151.6 million as of April 3, 2009, the same as the January 2, 2009 balance.

* Our ability to continue to generate cash from operations will depend in large part on profitability, the rate of collections of accounts receivable, our inventory turns, and our ability to manage other areas of working capital.

* We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, together with our revolving credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs and stock purchases under the stock repurchase program for at least the next twelve months.

Table of Contents

* We anticipate that planned capital expenditures primarily for computer equipment, software, manufacturing tools and test equipment, and leasehold improvements associated with business expansion, will constitute a partial use of our cash resources. Decisions related to how much cash is used for investing are influenced by the expected amount of cash to be provided by operations.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $43.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to $20.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008. This increase of $22.4 million was primarily driven by a decrease in accounts receivable days sales outstanding (69 days versus 72 days in the first quarter of 2008) and an increase in accounts payable, partially offset by a decrease in net income before non-cash depreciation and amortization.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $46.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as compared to $43.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008. The increase was due to slightly higher cash requirements for business and intangible asset acquisitions.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities was $4.6 million for the first quarter of 2009, as compared to cash used of $15.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008, primarily due to the stock repurchase in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.

Accounts Receivable and Inventory Metrics

	April 3,		January 2,
As of	2009		2009

Accounts receivable days sales outstanding		69		69
Inventory turns per year		3.9		4.2

Accounts receivable days sales outstanding were 69 days as of April 3, 2009, the same as January 2, 2009. Our accounts receivable days sales outstanding are calculated based on ending accounts receivable, net, divided by revenue for the corresponding fiscal quarter, times a quarterly average of 91 days. Our inventory turns were 3.9 as of April 3, 2009, as compared to 4.2 as of January 2, 2009. Our inventory turnover is based on the total cost of sales for the fiscal period over the average inventory for the corresponding fiscal period.

Debt

As of April 3, 2009, our total debt was comprised primarily of our revolving credit line in the amount of $151.0 million, which was drawn down in the third and the fourth quarters of fiscal 2008. As of April 3, 2009, 2009 and January 2, 2009, there were also notes payable totaling approximately $632,000 and $588,000, respectively, primarily consisting of government loans to foreign subsidiaries.

On July 28, 2005, we entered into a $200 million unsecured revolving credit agreement (the 2005 Credit Facility) with a syndicate of 10 banks with The Bank of Nova Scotia as the administrative agent. On February 16, 2007, we amended our existing $200 million unsecured revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of 11 banks with The Bank of Nova Scotia as the administrative agent (the 2007 Credit Facility). Under the 2007 Credit Facility, we exercised the option in the existing credit agreement to increase the availability under the revolving credit line by $100 million, for an aggregate availability of up to $300 million, and extended the maturity date of the revolving credit line by 18 months, from July 2010 to February 2012. Up to $25 million of the availability under the revolving credit line may be used to issue letters of credit, and up to $20 million may be used for paying off other debts or loans. The maximum leverage ratio under the 2007 Credit Facility is 3.00:1.00. The funds available under the new 2007 Credit Facility may be used by us for acquisitions, stock repurchases, and general corporate purposes. As of August 20, 2008, we amended the 2007 Credit Facility to allow us to redeem, retire or purchase Trimble common stock. In addition, the definition of the fixed charge was amended to exclude the impact of redemptions, retirements, or purchases of Trimble common stock from the fixed charges coverage ratio. For additional discussion of our debt, see Note 8 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal 2007 we incurred a five-year term loan under the 2007 Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million, which was repaid in full during fiscal 2008.

We may borrow funds under the 2007 Credit Facility in U.S. Dollars or in certain other currencies, and borrowings will bear interest, at our option, at either: (i) a base rate, based on the administrative agent's prime rate, plus a margin of between 0% and 0.125%, depending on our leverage ratio as of our most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) a reserve-adjusted rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR), Stockholm Interbank Offered Rate (STIBOR), or other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 0.625% and 1.125%, depending on our leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. Our obligations under the 2007 Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

The 2007 Credit Facility contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants including, among other requirements, negative covenants that restrict our ability to dispose of assets, create liens, incur indebtedness, repurchase stock, pay dividends, make acquisitions, make investments, enter into mergers and consolidations and make capital expenditures, within certain limitations, and financial covenants that require the maintenance of leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. The 2007 Credit Facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, and events constituting a change of control. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, interest on the obligations will accrue at an increased rate and the lenders may accelerate our obligations under the 2007 Credit Facility, however that acceleration will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of default. As of April 3, 2009 we were in compliance with all financial debt covenants.
