EX-99 3 EXHIBIT 99 MANAGEMENT REVIEW RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW Tektronix had record sales and orders for its fiscal year ended May 30, 1998. Net earnings for 1998 were $82.3 million, or $1.60 per diluted share. Net earnings in 1997 of $114.8 million, or $2.29 per share, increased 15% over fiscal 1996 earnings of $99.6 million, or $1.95 per share. Fiscal year 1998 earnings included pre-tax non-recurring charges of $79.0 million related to the $60.0 million restructuring of the Video and Networking Division, $17.0 million of acquired in-process research and development and $2.0 million of severance costs associated with the acquisition of Siemens' Communications Test Equipment GmbH (CTE). Excluding the non-recurring charges, fiscal year 1998 earnings would have been $135.2 million, or $2.63 per share, an increase of 18% over fiscal year 1997 earnings. RESTRUCTURING In the second quarter of 1998, the Company announced and began to implement a restructuring plan designed to return the Video and Networking business to profitability. A pre-tax provision of $60.0 million was recorded to account for these actions. The objective of the plan was to reduce the unit's cost structure to increase operational efficiency. The plan has resulted in the separation of approximately 280 employees worldwide and the exiting of certain facilities and product lines at an expected total cost of $21.5 million. The actions included streamlining its product offerings by discontinuing certain products in the Grass Valley line, certain non-linear digital editing products sold under the Lightworks name, and exiting the Network Displays business. As a result of the reduction in headcount and product offerings, the Company's facility in Grass Valley, California, was closed and consolidated into the nearby Nevada City, California, facility. The Grass Valley facility is owned by the Company and is held for sale. These costs are included in non-recurring charges for the year ended May 30, 1998 in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, the decision to downsize the business and streamline product offerings resulted in obsolete inventory that was written off. Numerous products were discontinued, requiring a $38.5 million write-down of inventories now considered obsolete, which is included in cost of sales for the year ended May 30, 1998 in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company expects these actions to reduce costs by approximately $30.0 million per year once fully implemented. The implementation will be substantially complete by the end of the second quarter of 1999. The cash required for these actions is approximately $15.8 million. As of May 30, 1998, $9.2 million of this cash has been spent, with the remainder to be paid out through the second quarter of 1999. NET SALES AND PRODUCT ORDERS Net sales in 1998 were $2.086 billion, an 8% increase over 1997 sales of $1.940 billion. Growth in the Measurement Business and Color Printing and Imaging Divisions offset the slower sales of the Video and Networking Division as product lines were streamlined. Sales to customers in the United States of $1.078 billion were 5% above the level for the prior year, and represented 52% of total sales. International sales rose 10%, from $912.8 million to $1.008 billion, with strong sales growth in Europe at $548.8 million, up $43.5 million or 9% from 1997, and in the Americas at $114.7 million, up $36.5 million or 47% from 1997. Sales to the Pacific region, excluding Japan, were up 3% to $209.0 million in 1998 from $202.4 million in 1997. Sales to Japan were up 7% to $135.6 million in 1998. Net sales in 1997 were 10% higher than they were in 1996. U.S. sales of $1.027 billion in 1997 were 15% above those of the prior year. Product orders for 1998 were $1.912 billion, an increase of 5% over 1997 orders of $1.829 billion. Orders in 1996 were $1.658 billion. 1 The following table summarizes the Company's net sales for the last three years by its three business divisions:
IN THOUSANDS 1998 1997 1996 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Measurement Business $ 962,858 $ 852,827 $812,250 Color Printing and Imaging 728,697 638,456 561,642 Video and Networking 394,247 448,799 394,966
Measurement Business sales of $962.9 million in 1998 represented 46% of total sales and grew 13% from 1997. Growth in 1998 was driven by sales of the TLA 700 logic analyzer and telecommunications test products, including those from CTE. Measurement Business sales in 1997 were 5% higher than in 1996 due to the introduction of new logic analyzer products and the TDS 200 oscilloscope during the second half of the year. Product orders in 1998 were $860.9 million, compared to $795.2 million in 1997 and $754.0 million in 1996. Color Printing and Imaging sales increased 14%, from sales of $638.5 million in 1997 to $728.7 million in 1998. The introduction of three new printers during the year (the Phaser 560, Phaser 380, and Phaser 360) and increased sales of printing supplies drove growth in sales and orders. Color Printing and Imaging sales accounted for 35% of total sales in 1998 compared to 33% in 1997. Sales in 1997 increased 14% over 1996, due to the introduction of the Phaser 350 in that year and continued demand for the Phaser 550. Product orders rose 13% to $687.3 million in 1998 from $607.5 million in 1997. Product orders were $531.1 million in 1996. Video and Networking sales in 1998 of $394.2 million were 12% lower than in 1997 due to a reduction in product offerings through the elimination of certain non-profitable product lines as well as general weakness in the broadcast market. In addition, 1997 sales were particularly strong in the netstation business, including two significant installations of networked computers that year. The decline was tempered by continued sales growth of the Profile PDR 200 professional video server. Sales increased 14%, from $395.0 million in 1996 to $448.8 million in 1997, due to strength in Profile video disk recorders and networked computers. Product orders were $363.8 million in 1998, down 15% from orders of $426.4 million in 1997. Product orders in 1996 were $372.4 million. OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES Gross margin was 41.5% of sales in 1998. Excluding non-recurring charges, gross margin would have been 43.3% of sales, an increase from 42.9% in 1997 due to cost management across all three divisions, streamlining in Video and Networking to focus on profitable products, and cost savings as a result of the restructuring of that business. Non-recurring charges decreased reported gross margin due to $38.5 million of Video and Networking inventory written off as part of the restructuring of that business. This inventory included finished goods and components related to products that were discontinued in an effort to focus the company on products that generate the highest margins. Gross margins increased to 42.9% in 1997, from 41.9% in 1996, due to an improved mix of higher margin supplies sales in Color Printing and Imaging and lower manufacturing costs in Video and Networking. Research and development expenses were 9.7% of sales in 1998 and 1997 and 9.3% of sales in 1996 at $203.3 million, $188.2 million and $164.3 million, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $508.7 million, or 24.4% of sales, in 1998 compared to $481.1 million, or 24.8% of sales, in 1997 and $437.9 million, or 24.8% of sales, in 1996. Operating margin was 5.5% of sales in 1998. Excluding non-recurring charges, operating margins continued an increasing trend, rising to 9.3% in 1998 from 8.5% in 1997 and 8.1% in 1996. Increasing gross margins and continued focus on cost management contributed to the increase in 1998. The improvement in 1997 was due primarily to higher gross margins, partly offset by higher research and development spending and lower equity in business ventures' earnings. Interest expense decreased 17% to $10.1 million due to a decrease in both long-term and short-term debt balances in 1998. Interest expense was $12.1 million in 1997, 13% less than the $14.0 million in 1996. 2 Other income was $17.6 million in 1998 compared with other income of $15.9 million in 1997 and $12.9 million in 1996. The improvement primarily reflected higher gains on sales of equity securities in other companies. The Company continues to hold equity positions that it intends to liquidate over time. The Company's effective tax rate for 1998 was 33%, compared to 32% in 1997 and 30% in 1996. FINANCIAL CONDITION OVERVIEW Tektronix continues to focus on improving the efficient management of the capital invested in its business. To monitor that progress, the Company uses the economic value added (EVA) measure. EVA is determined by the Company by deducting taxes and a cost of capital charge from operating income, excluding non-recurring charges, which management believes provides an objective means of determining if the Company's earnings are able to cover the cost of financing its invested capital. Invested capital is the average net assets of the Company excluding cash and debt. The Company generated EVA of $40.6 million in 1998, compared to $21.8 million in 1997 and $11.9 million in 1996. The improvement in 1998 is a result of both the strong earnings for the year, exclusive of non-recurring charges, and continued improvements in invested capital, as average accounts receivable and average inventories both decreased from 1997. LIQUIDITY The Company's financial condition continues to be strong. Cash flows from operating activities and borrowing capacity are expected to be sufficient to fund operations and capital expenditures through May 2000. Cash provided by operations of $167.8 million in 1998 was sufficient to fund capital expenditures for increased manufacturing capacity. The Company expects that cash payments required to carry out the remaining restructuring activities will be approximately $8.0 million. At May 30, 1998, the Company maintained bank credit facilities totaling $307.6 million, of which $303.1 million was unused. Unused facilities include $153.1 million in lines of credit and $150.0 million under a revolving credit agreement from United States and foreign banks. Additional details, including maturity dates of agreements and certain financial covenants, are included under "Short-term and Long-term Debt" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. BALANCE SHEET Current assets decreased by $2.8 million from 1997. Cash decreased $22.2 million as funds were expended to invest in facilities for continued growth of Color Printing and Imaging and for the acquisition of CTE. Accounts receivable increased by $40.5 million, due in part to an increase in year over year sales in the fourth quarter. Average days sales outstanding for the year improved from 54.6 days in 1997 to 51.1 days in 1998. Inventories decreased by $23.7 million as Video and Networking streamlined product offerings allowing for significantly lower inventory requirements. Color Printing and Imaging inventories were down slightly for the year despite increasing sales and orders. Net property, plant and equipment increased by $82.0 million due to capital expenditures of $155.1 million in 1998, primarily related to the expansion of manufacturing capacity for Color Printing and Imaging. Net deferred tax assets increased $21.9 million due to timing differences related to restructuring activities and a decline in the deferred tax liability related to unrealized holding gains as securities were sold and market prices on the remaining holdings declined. Other long-term assets declined by $31.7 million due to the disposition of certain of the Company's available-for-sale securities, offset by the acquisition of identified intangibles. Current liabilities increased by $45.7 million primarily due to increases in trade payables, accrued compensation for incentive plans, and accruals related to the remaining restructuring activities. Shareholders' equity increased by $13.6 million, or 2%, over 1997. Earnings net of dividends of $59.1 million was offset by a decrease in unrealized holding gains of $28.7 million and a decrease in the currency adjustment of $13.6 million. 3 DERIVATIVES AND FOREIGN EXCHANGE The Company has exposure to interest-rate risk, primarily from its use of short-term and long-term borrowings to finance operations, and to investment risk, primarily from its equity investment portfolio. The Company has not entered into any derivatives to hedge against these interest-rate or investment risks. The Company is also exposed to exchange-rate risk on transactions and commitments denominated in foreign currencies and uses foreign exchange contracts to mitigate this risk. Changes in foreign exchange rates are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company's policy is to only enter into derivative transactions when the company has an identifiable exposure to risk, and to only enter into such transactions with creditworthy financial institutions. FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 130 establishes requirements for disclosure of comprehensive income and becomes effective for the first quarter ending August 1998. Reclassification of earlier financial statements for comparative purposes is required. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for disclosure about operating segments in annual financial statements and selected information in interim financial reports. The new disclosures will first be presented in the Company's annual report for the fiscal year ending May 1999. Information presented for earlier years will be restated for comparative purposes. Adoption of these statements may result in additional disclosures but will have no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The new statement will require recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. The new statement is effective for fiscal year 2001, but early adoption is encouraged. Management has not completed an evaluation of the effects this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements. YEAR 2000 In connection with the Company's ongoing program to standardize and upgrade its key internal financial, information and operational systems, an assessment has been made of the ability of these systems to operate in, and to process transactions and data involving, the year 2000 and beyond. The Company believes that all key internal systems that are not already year 2000 ready will be modified, upgraded or replaced prior to the year 2000. The Company is currently engaged in assessing the capability of its products to handle the transition to and operate in the year 2000, and has a plan in place to address product issues prior to the year 2000. The Company is working with major suppliers and customers to resolve year 2000 interface issues. Management believes that the cost of these projects over the next two years will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or overall trends in results of operations. However, because of the existence of numerous systems and related components within the Company and the interdependency of these systems, it is possible that certain systems at the Company, or systems at entities that provide services or goods for the Company, may fail to operate in the year 2000. Although it is not currently anticipated, the inability to complete the Company's year 2000 plans on a timely basis or the failure of a system at the Company or at an entity that provides services or goods to the Company may have a material impact on future operating results or financial condition. 4 FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS Statements and information included in the Chairman's letter and Management Review and elsewhere in this report that relate to the Company's goals, strategies and expectations as to future results and events are based on the Company's current expectations. They constitute forward looking statements subject to a number of risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently expected or desired. As with many high technology companies, risk factors that could cause the Company's actual results or activities to differ materially from these forward looking statements include, but are not limited to: worldwide economic and business conditions in the electronics industry, including the continuing effect of the Asian economic crisis on demand for the Company's products; competitive factors, including pricing pressures, technological developments and products offered by competitors; changes in product and sales mix, and the related effects on gross margins; the Company's ability to deliver a timely flow of competitive new products, and market acceptance of these products; the availability of parts and supplies from third party suppliers on a timely basis and at reasonable prices; inventory risks due to changes in market demand or the Company's business strategies; changes in effective tax rates; customer demand; currency fluctuations; the fact that a substantial portion of the Company's sales are generated from orders received during the quarter, making prediction of quarterly revenues and earnings difficult; and other risk factors listed from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission reports and in press releases. Additional risk factors specific to the Company's current plans and expectations that could cause the Company's actual results or activities to differ materially from those stated include: the significant operational issues the Company faces in executing its strategy in Video and Networking; the timely introduction of new products scheduled during the Company's fiscal year, which could be affected by engineering or other development program slippages, the ability to ramp up production or to develop effective sales channels; the customers' acceptance of, and demand for, those products; and changes in the regulatory environment affecting the transition to high-definition television within the time frame anticipated by the Company. Forward looking statements in this report speak only as of the date made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward looking statements which may be made to reflect subsequent events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. 5 MANAGEMENT'S LETTER The consolidated financial statements of Tektronix, Inc. and subsidiaries have been prepared by management and have been audited by Tektronix' independent auditors, Deloitte & Touche LLP, as stated in their independent auditors' report.

NEUN Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer 6 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF TEKTRONIX, INC.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Tektronix, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 30, 1998 and May 31, 1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended May 30, 1998, May 31, 1997, and May 25, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

11 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ACCOUNTING POLICIES THE COMPANY Tektronix, Inc. ("Tektronix" or "the Company") is a global high-technology company based on a portfolio of measurement, color printing, and video and networking businesses. Headquartered in Wilsonville, Oregon, Tektronix employs more than 8,600 people and maintains operations in 25 countries outside the United States. Tektronix was founded in 1946. FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tektronix and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Investments in joint ventures and minority-owned companies where the Company exercises significant influence are accounted for on the equity basis. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain items have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation with no effect on previously reported earnings. The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is based on the average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential shares issuable upon assumed exercise of outstanding stock options based on the treasury stock method. All share, per share and option amounts have been restated to give effect to the three-for-two stock split effective October 31, 1997. FISCAL YEAR The Company's fiscal year is the 52 or 53 weeks ending the last Saturday in May. Fiscal years 1998 and 1996 were 52 weeks; fiscal year 1997 was 53 weeks. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION For most non-U.S. subsidiaries, the local currency is the functional currency, and, therefore, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates, and net earnings are translated at average exchange rates for the year. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of net assets are reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in net earnings. DERIVATIVES Gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts used to hedge existing assets and liabilities are recognized in income in the period in which the related hedged transaction occurs. Gains and losses related to hedges of firm commitments are deferred and included in the basis of the hedged transaction when it is completed. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents include cash deposits in banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Accounts receivable have been reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts, which was $4.8 million in 1998 and $3.1 million in 1997. The charges to this reserve have not been material. 12 On September 10, 1996, the Company entered into a five-year revolving receivable purchase agreement with Citibank NA to sell, without recourse, an undivided interest of up to $50.0 million in a defined pool of trade accounts receivable. Receivables of $50.0 million sold under this agreement were reflected as operating cash flows in the Statements of Cash Flows for the year ended May 31, 1997. INVENTORIES The company periodically evaluates its inventory in terms of obsolete or slow-moving items. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from ten to forty years for buildings and three to seven years for machinery and equipment, and is generally provided using the straight-line method.

INVESTMENTS Investments in marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and reported at fair market value in the consolidated balance sheets as other long-term assets. The unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported, net of deferred income taxes, as a separate component of shareholders' equity. INTANGIBLE ASSETS Intangible assets are included as other long-term assets at cost. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over periods generally not exceeding fifteen years. Long-lived assets and intangibles are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate costs may not be recoverable. If impairment exists, the asset's book value will be written down to its fair value. INCOME TAXES Deferred income taxes, reflecting the impact of temporary differences between the assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting purposes and amounts recognized for tax purposes, are based on tax laws currently enacted. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS The Company accrues environmental costs when it is probable that the Company has incurred a liability and the amount can be reasonably estimated. 13 FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 130 establishes requirements for disclosure of comprehensive income and becomes effective for the first quarter ending August 1998. Reclassification of earlier financial statements for comparative purposes is required. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for disclosure about operating segments in annual financial statements and selected information in interim financial reports. The new disclosures will first be presented in the Company's annual report for the fiscal year ending May 1999. Information presented for earlier years will be restated for comparative purposes. Adoption of these statements may result in additional disclosures but will have no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The new statement will require recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. The new statement becomes effective in fiscal year 2001, but early adoption is encouraged. Management has not completed an evaluation of the effects this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements. ACQUISITION On September 30, 1997, the Company acquired Siemens' Communications Test Equipment GmbH (CTE), a wholly owned subsidiary of Siemens AG based in Berlin, Germany, for $46.6 million in cash, including direct acquisition costs. The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the results of operations of CTE have been included in the Company's financial statements since the date of acquisition. Pro forma comparative results of operations are not presented because they are not materially different from the Company's reported results of operations. The purchase price was allocated as follows:
IN THOUSANDS 1998 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Identified intangibles $ 23,000 Acquired in-process research and development 17,000 Fair value of identified net assets acquired 6,600 ---------- Total purchase price $ 46,600 ==========
The identified intangibles include $18.0 million of completed technology and $5.0 million of workforce-in-place and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. The completed technology of $18.0 million acquired consists of several products in the telecommunications test equipment market that supplemented the company's current product offerings. The valuation of the completed technology was determined by calculating the net present value of future cash flows based on predicted revenues and expenses associated with the existing products. A discount rate of 16% was used in the valuation of the completed technology. The acquired in-process research and development ("IPR&D") of $17.0 million was comprised of several projects in the telecommunication test equipment market. The value of the IPR&D was expensed in the second quarter of fiscal year 1998 because at the time of the acquisition technological feasibility had not been established and no future alternative uses existed for any of the projects. To determine the valuation of in-process technology, management considered the state of development of each project, the expected time and cost to complete each project, the expected income from the projects, and the risks associated with the development. These risks include technological feasibility issues, demand for the final products, and competition. The Income Approach was utilized in determining the valuation of the IPR&D. This approach determines the net present value of the future cash flows based on predicted revenues and costs associated with the first generation of products, using a discount rate commensurate with the risks identified. A discount rate of 26% was used in the valuation of the IPR&D. 14 Research and development costs to bring the projects from the acquired company to technological feasibility were approximately $5.0 million, and the products were completed at various dates during fiscal year 1998 and fiscal year 1999. RESTRUCTURING In the second quarter of 1998, the Company announced and began to implement a restructuring plan designed to return the Video and Networking business to profitability. A pre-tax provision of $60.0 million was recorded to account for these actions, which included streamlining its product offerings and reducing the unit's cost structure to increase operational efficiency. The plan has resulted in the separation of certain employees worldwide and the exiting of certain facilities and product lines at an expected total cost of $21.5 million. These costs are included in non-recurring charges for the year ended May 30, 1998 in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, the decision to streamline product offerings required a $38.5 million write-down of inventories, which is included in cost of sales for the year ended May 30, 1998 in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The cash required for these actions is approximately $15.8 million. As of May 30, 1998, $9.2 million of this cash has been spent, with the remainder to be paid out through the second quarter of 1999. The restructuring charges incurred during the quarter ended November 29, 1997 affected the Company's financial position in the following manner:
Equipment Payables Accrued and other and other (In thousands) compensation Inventories assets liabilities - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original charges $ 14,933 $ 38,482 $ 5,706 $ 839 Activity for the year ended May 30, 1998: Cash paid out 8,778 -- -- 397 Non-cash disposals or write-offs 38,482 5,706 - ------------- -------------- -------------- --------------- Balance May 30, 1998 $ 6,155 $ -- $ -- $ 442 ============= ============= ============== ===============
The charge of $14.9 million in accrued compensation reflects headcount reductions of 411 employees worldwide. Approximately 225 employees were terminated and paid severance of $8.8 million under this plan through the end of 1998. NON-RECURRING CHARGES Non-recurring charges consisted of:

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving patent infringement and other intellectual property claims. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company and its subsidiaries will ultimately be successful in any of these legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be, the Company believes that disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLANS The Company has stock option plans for selected employees. There were 4,974,000 shares reserved for issuance under these plans at May 30, 1998. Under the terms of the plans, incentive stock options are granted at an option price not less than the market value at the date of grant. Nonqualified stock options may not be granted at less than 100% of the market value on the valuation date selected by the Board of Directors. Options granted prior to January 1, 1997, generally vest over four years and expire ten years from the date of grant. Most options granted after January 1, 1997, vest over two years and expire five years from the date of grant. There were 1,172 employees holding options at May 30, 1998. 19 Additional information with respect to option activity is set forth below:

The Company accounts for stock options according to APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Under APB No. 25, no compensation expense is recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements for employee stock options because the exercise price of the options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Alternatively, under the fair value method of accounting provided for by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the measurement of compensation cost is based on the fair value of employee stock options at the grant date and requires the use of option pricing models to value the options. The weighted average estimated fair value of options granted during 1998, 1997 and 1996 was $12, $11 and $10 per share, respectively. 20 The Company also has plans for certain executives and outside directors that provide stock-based compensation other than options. Under APB No. 25, compensation cost for these plans is measured based on the market price of the stock at the date the terms of the award become fixed. Under the fair value approach of SFAS No. 123, compensation cost is measured based on the market price of the stock at the grant date. The weighted average grant-date fair value of the shares granted under these plans during 1998, 1997 and 1996 was $41, $31 and $25 per share, respectively. The total shares granted under these plans and the compensation cost recognized in income were not material. The pro forma impact to both net earnings and earnings per share from calculating stock-related compensation cost consistent with the fair value alternative of SFAS No. 123 is indicated below:
1998 1997 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pro forma net earnings (in thousands) $ 74,520 $ 109,240 $ 97,015 Pro forma earnings per share - basic $ 1.48 $ 2.21 $ 1.95 diluted 1.45 2.17 1.90
The fair value of each option was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
1998 1997 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expected life (in years) 3.0 5.0 5.0 Risk-free interest rate 5.8% 6.3% 5.7% Volatility 40.0% 35.2% 33.9% Dividend yield 1.2% 1.3% 1.4%
For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the stock-based awards is amortized over the vesting period. Because SFAS No. 123 is applicable only to awards granted after May 27, 1995, the pro forma effect will not be fully reflected until 1999. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS AGREEMENT In August 1990, the Company's Board of Directors approved a shareholder rights agreement and declared a dividend of one right for each outstanding common share. Each right entitles the holder to purchase one one-thousandth of a share of no par preferred stock at an exercise price of $60, subject to adjustment. Generally, the rights become exercisable ten days after a person or group acquires or commences a tender offer that would result in beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the common shares. In addition, the rights become exercisable if any party becomes the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the outstanding common shares and is determined by the Board to be an adverse party. Upon the occurrence of certain additional events specified in the shareholder rights agreement, each right would entitle its holder to purchase common shares of the Company (or, in some cases, a potential acquiring company) or other property having a value of twice the right's exercise price. The rights, which are not currently exercisable, expire in September 2000, but may be redeemed by action of the Board prior to that time, under certain circumstances, for $0.01 per right. 21 BENEFIT PLANS PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS The Company has defined benefit retirement plans covering most employees. The U.S. pension plan was amended in 1998, converting it from a final average pay plan to a cash balance plan. Under the new plan, an initial account was established for all participants who were active employees as of December 31, 1997. Beginning January 1, 1998, a specified percentage of eligible compensation will be credited to each participant's account. In addition, each participant's account will earn interest credits, based on the one-year Treasury Bill rate plus 0.5%. Upon separation from Tektronix, participating employees may choose to have their account balances paid to them in the form of a lump sum amount or as an annuity. As a result of this plan amendment, the pension benefit obligation was reduced by $38.9 million, which is being amortized as a reduction in pension expense over the average remaining service period of the active participants in the plan. For 1998, the Company increased the expected long-term rate of return assumption to reflect historical rates of return on plan assets. As a result of this change, pension expense in 1998 was reduced by $3.8 million. The retirement rate assumption was also revised to reflect actual demographic experience. As a result of this change, the pension benefit obligation as of May 30, 1998, was increased by $5.5 million. Finally, upon transition to the cash balance plan on January 1, 1998, the discount rate was reduced to reflect current market conditions. The impact of this change was to increase the pension benefit obligation by $63.9 million. The following tables provide information about changes in the benefit obligation and plan assets and the funded status of the Company's pension and postretirement benefit plans.

22 The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation, and fair value of plan assets for certain non-U.S. plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $18.7 million, $17.2 million and zero, respectively, for 1998, and $15.2 million, $13.1 million and zero, respectively, for 1997. Assumptions used in the accounting for the Company's pension and postretirement benefit plans were:
ASSUMPTIONS ON A WEIGHTED AVERAGE BASIS 1998 1997 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PENSION BENEFITS Discount rate 7.0% 7.8% 7.6% Rate of compensation increase 3.7% 3.8% 3.8% Expected return on plan assets 10.9% 10.2% 9.3% POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS Discount rate 7.3% 8.0% 7.8% Rate of compensation increase 3.8% 3.8% 3.8%
Effective July 1, 1998, the Company replaced its self-funded indemnity health plan for retirees with an insured indemnity plan. Accordingly, the assumed health care cost trend rates used to measure the expected cost of benefits were adjusted to reflect the terms of the new plan. As a result, the annual rate of change in the cost of health care benefits for 1999 under the new indemnity plan was assumed to be a decrease of 14.3% for participants under the age of 65 and an increase of 4.7% for participants age 65 and over. These rates were assumed to increase to 13.5% and 16.0%, respectively, for 2000 and 2001, and then were assumed to decrease gradually until they reach an ultimate rate of 5.3% and 5.5%, respectively, in 2007. For the existing retiree HMO plans, the rate of increase in the cost of health care benefits was assumed to be 9.8% for 1999, decreasing gradually to a rate of 5.3% in 2004 and remaining at that level thereafter. A 1% change in these assumptions would not have a material effect on either the postretirement benefit obligation at May 30, 1998, or the benefit credit reported for 1998. The components of net pension benefit cost and postretirement benefit credit recognized in income were:
IN THOUSANDS 1998 1997 1996 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PENSION BENEFITS Service cost $ 14,161 $ 12,084 $ 9,469 Interest cost 37,829 37,627 37,414 Expected return on plan assets (48,634) (39,335) (33,574) Amortization of transition asset (2,059) (1,858) (1,835) Amortization of prior service cost (2,209) 740) (780) Recognized net loss 1,792 2,655 999 Other benefit plans 1,992 1,327 1,454 ------------------------------------- Net benefit cost $ 2,872 $ 11,760 $ 13,147 ===================================== POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS Service cost $ 188 $ 177 $ 168 Interest cost 1,145 1,244 1,359 Amortization of prior service cost (2,671) (2,671) (2,671) Recognized net gain (747) (631) (714) ------------------------------------- Net benefit credit $ (2,085) $ (1,881) $ (1,858) =====================================
23 EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN The Company has an employee savings plan that qualifies as a deferred salary arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Participating U.S. employees may defer up to 15% of their compensation, subject to certain regulatory limitations. Employee contributions are invested, at the employees' direction, among a variety of investment alternatives. The Company's matching contribution, which was previously invested entirely in Company stock, was increased from 3% to 4% of compensation effective January 1, 1998, and may now be invested in any one of the 401(k) plan funds. In addition, the Company contributes Company stock to the plan for all eligible employees equal to 2% of compensation. The Company's total contributions were approximately $16.4 million in 1998, $14.2 million in 1997, and $12.1 million in 1996. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to reduce the impact of foreign exchange risks where internal netting strategies cannot be effectively employed. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company's derivative activities do not create risk because fluctuations in the value of the instruments used for hedging purposes are offset by fluctuations in the value of the underlying exposures being hedged. The notional or contract amounts of the hedging instruments do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, thus, are not a measure of the Company's exposure due to the use of derivatives. The amounts exchanged are calculated on the basis of the notional amounts and other terms of the instruments. The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to financial instruments. However, the Company has entered into these instruments with creditworthy financial institutions and considers the risk of nonperformance to be remote. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK MANAGEMENT The Company uses foreign exchange contracts to hedge its exchange rate risks. At the end of 1998 and 1997, the notional amounts of the Company's outstanding contracts were $127.4 million and $113.6 million, respectively. Generally, these contracts have maturities that do not exceed one year and require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. dollars at maturity. The purpose of the Company's hedging activities is to reduce the risk that the eventual cash flows of the underlying assets, liabilities and firm commitments will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. The deferred gains or losses attributable to foreign exchange contracts are not material. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS For short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term debt, accounts payable and accrued compensation, the carrying amount approximates the fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of those instruments. The fair value of marketable equity securities is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices for similar instruments or by discounting expected cash flows at rates currently available to the Company for instruments with similar risks and maturities. The differences between the fair values and carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, including derivatives, at May 30, 1998, and May 31, 1997, were not material. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable. The risk is limited due to the large number of entities comprising the Company's customer base and their dispersion across many different industries and geographies. At May 30, 1998, the Company had no significant concentrations of credit risk. 24 INCOME TAXES The components of earnings before taxes on a geographical basis are contained in the "Business Segments" note. The provision for income taxes consisted of:
IN THOUSANDS 1998 1997 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current: Federal $ 30,979 $ 21,457 $ 9,104 State 5,060 3,742 1,961 Non-U.S. 10,826 7,854 10,789 ------------------------------------------------ 46,865 33,053 21,854 Deferred: Federal (180) 15,921 16,363 State (460) 2,015 3,338 Non-U.S. (5,696) 3,028 1,125 ----------------------------------------------- (6,336) 20,964 20,826 ----------------------------------------------- Total provision $ 40,529 $ 54,017 $ 42,680 ===============================================

IN THOUSANDS 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income taxes based on U.S. statutory rate $ 42,985 $ 59,081 $ 49,793 Foreign sales corporations (6,391) (5,935) (4,565) Change in beginning of year valuation allowance (505) (3,824) (5,526) State income taxes, net of U.S. tax 2,990 3,742 3,445 Other - net 1,450 953 (467) ---------------------------------------------- Total provision $ 40,529 $ 54,017 $ 42,680 ==============================================
