Note 1. | Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Standards Updates |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of FLIR Systems, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”(“FLIR,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FLIR Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2020.2021.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"(“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update ("ASU"(“ASU”) No. 2016-13, 2019-12, “"Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" ("ASU 2016-13" or "Topic 326"): Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using a modified-retrospective approach. The standard changes the way entities recognize impairment of many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over their remaining life. Adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
FASB ASU No. 2018-18, "Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606" ("ASU 2018-18"): Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2018-18. The standard clarifies that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for under ASC 606, when one participant is a customer, and specifies that a distinct good or service is the unit of account for evaluating whether the transaction is with a customer. The standard also provides guidance on presentation of transactions not in the scope of ASC 606. Adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes"Taxes..” Effective January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2019-12. The standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 including recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intra-period allocations and calculating taxes in interim periods. The ASU 2019-12 also improves consistent application of and simplifies GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adoptAdoption of the standard as of January 1, 2021 and is currently evaluating this guidance to determinedid not have a material impact on the impact it may have on itsCompany's consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, ““Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting””, which temporarily simplifies the accounting for contract modifications, including hedging relationships, due to the transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference interest rates. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 (Topic 848), which clarifies the scope of ASC 848. This ASU is effective as of January 1, 2020, and applies prospectively to contract modifications and hedging relationships. For example, entities can elect not to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination if certain conditions are met. Additionally, entities can elect to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform if certain conditions are met. The new standardASU 2020-04 guidance was effective upon issuance, and generally can be appliedupon adoption of this ASU, we may elect to applicable contract modificationsapply the amendments prospectively from now through December 31, 2022. The Company has not yet adopted this guidance and is currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption on the transition from LIBOR to alternative reference interest rates as well as the impact it may have on itsCompany's consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition
The Company designs, markets and sells products primarily as commercial, off-the-shelf products. Certain customers request different system configurations, based on standard options or accessories that the Company offers. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. The Company regularly enters into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. In such situations, contract values are allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative estimated standalone selling price. The vast majority of the Company's revenues are recognized at a point in time when goods are transferred to a customer. However, for certain contracts that include highly customized components, if performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and termination for convenience clauses provide an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, revenue is recognized over time as the performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue includes certain shipping and handling costs and is stated net of third-party agency fees. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of goods sold. Revenue is recognized net of allowances for returns and net of taxes collected from customers which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Note 2. Revenue - (Continued)
Revenue Recognition - (Continued)
The Company's products are sold with warranty provisions that require it to remedy deficiencies in quality or performance of the Company's products over a specified period of time, generally twelve to twenty-four months, at no cost to its customers. Warranty liabilities are established at the time that revenue is recognized at levels that represent the Company's estimate of the costs that will be incurred to fulfill those warranty requirements. Provisions for estimated losses on sales or related receivables are recorded when identified. Service revenue is deferred and recognized over the contract period, as is the case for extended warranty contracts, or recognized as services are provided.
See Note 17, "Operating Segments and Related Information - Revenue and Long-Lived Assets by Geographic Area" for information related to the Company’s revenues disaggregated by significant geographical region and operating segment.
Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and deferred revenue and advance payments from customers on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract assets and liabilities are reported on a contract-by-contract basis. The Company had no material deferred contract costs recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
Contract assets: The Company recognizes unbilled receivables as contract assets when the Company has rights to consideration for work completed but has not yet billed at the reporting date. Unbilled receivables are included within accounts receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The balance of unbilled receivables as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 20192020 were $23.3$75.4 million and $9.4$45.0 million, respectively.
Contract liabilities: The Company records contract liabilities when cash payments are received or due in advance of the Company's performance. Contract liabilities include deferred revenue and advance payments from customers. Contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize revenue. As of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, contract liability balances totaled $56.6$54.7 million and $69.1$48.8 million, respectively. These balances included amounts classified as long-term as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 20192020 which were $12.1$12.4 million and $12.5$12.0 million, respectively, and are included within other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Approximately $37.8$11.5 million of revenue recognized during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was included in the combined contract liability balances as of December 31, 2019.2020.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to performance obligations with an original contract term greater than one year which are fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period. While the remaining performance obligation disclosure is similar in concept to backlog, the definition of remaining performance obligations excludes contracts that provide the customer with the right to cancel or terminate for convenience with no substantial penalty, even if historical experience indicates the likelihood of cancellation or termination is remote. The Company has elected to exclude contracts with customers with an original term of one year or less from remaining performance obligations while these contracts are included within backlog.

Note 6. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company's financial position and results of operations are subject to certain financial market risks. The Company regularly assesses these risks and has established risk management practices designed to mitigate the impact of certain foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate risk exposures. The Company does not engage in speculative trading in any financial market.
Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company uses currency forward contracts, not formally designated as hedges, to manage the consolidated exchange rate risk associated with the remeasurement of certain non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities primarily by subsidiaries that use U.S. dollars, European euros, Canadian dollars, Swedish kronor, Norwegian kroner, Brazilian real and British pound sterling as their functional currency. Changes in fair value of foreign currency forward contracts are recognized in other (income) expense,income (loss), net at the end of each reporting period. In general, these gains and losses are offset in the Consolidated Statements of Income by the reciprocal gains and losses from the underlying assets or liabilities which originally gave rise to the exposure. At June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts, not formally designated as hedges, had maturities of three months or less.
In addition, the Company manages the risk of changes in the fair value of certain monetary liabilities attributable to changes in exchange rates.

Differences between the change in fair value of the excluded component and amounts recognized under the systematic and rational method are recognized in other comprehensive income.income (loss). The change in fair value of the hedging instruments attributable to the hedged risk is reported in other expense (income)income (loss), net. The change in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk is reported as an adjustment to its carrying value and also included in other expense (income)income (loss), net.

Interest Rate Swap
The Company's outstanding debt at June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 consists of fixed rate notes and an unsecured credit facility consisting of an unsecured revolving loan facility, an unsecured U.S. dollar term loan and an unsecured Swedish kronor term loan, all of which accrue interest at a floating rate. As discussed in Note 13, "Debt," interest expense on the Company's floating rate debt is calculated based on a fixed spread over the applicable Eurocurrency rate (e.g. LIBOR) subject to a floor of zero percent. Therefore, fluctuations in market interest rates will cause interest expense increases or decreases on a given amount of floating rate debt.
The Company is managing its interest rate risk related to certain floating rate debt through an interest rate swap (“swap”) in which the Company receives floating rate payments subject to a floor of zero percent and makes fixed rate payments. The impact of the swap is to fix the floating rate basis for the calculation of interest on the unsecured Swedish kronor term loan at 0.590 percent. The swap is designated and effective as a cash flow hedge with individual swap cash flows recorded as an asset or liability in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Hedge effectiveness is generally determined by evaluating the alignment of the hedging instrument's critical terms with the critical terms of the hedged item. Fair value adjustments are recorded as an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income. income (loss).

The Credit Agreement allows the Company and certain designated subsidiaries to borrow in United States dollars, European euros, Swedish kronor, British pound sterling, Japanese yen, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars, and other agreed upon currencies. Interest rates under the Credit Agreement are determined from the type and tenor of the borrowing and includes loans based on the published term Eurocurrency rate (e.g. LIBOR) in which the loan is denominated. The Eurocurrency rate loans have a floor of zero percent and an applicable margin that ranges from 1.000 percent to 1.375 percent depending on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio. At June 30, 2020, the borrowing rate on the revolving loan was 1.553 percent per annum, the borrowing rate on the U.S. dollar term loan was 1.683 percent per annum and the borrowing rate on the Swedish kronor term loan was 1.444 percent per annum.

The Credit Agreement contains one financial covenant that requires maintenance of a consolidated total leverage ratio with which the Company was in compliance at June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
The facilities available under the Credit Agreement are unsecured. The Credit Agreement also contains language providing for the adoption of a LIBOR successor rate in anticipation of the possibility of LIBOR benchmark reform, consistent with market practice.

Matters Involving the United States Department of State and Department of Commerce
On April 24, 2018, the Company entered into a Consent Agreement with the United States Department of State's Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (“DDTC”) to resolve allegations regarding the unauthorized export of technical data and defense services to dual and third country nationals from certain Company facilities, the failure to properly use and manage export licenses and export authorizations, and failures to report certain payments under 22 CFR Part 130 in potential violation of the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (“ITAR”). The Consent Agreement has a four-year term and provides for: (i) a civil penalty of $30.0 million with $15.0 million of this amount suspended on the condition that the funds have or will be used for Department-approved Consent Agreement remedial compliance measures, (ii) the appointment of an external Special Compliance Official to oversee compliance with the Consent Agreement and the ITAR; (iii) two external audits of the Company’s ITAR compliance program; and (iv) continued implementation of ongoing remedial compliance measures and additional remedial compliance measures related to automated systems and ITAR compliance policies, procedures, and training. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded a $15.0 million charge for the portion of the penalty that is not subject to suspension. In April 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2020,2021 the Company paid $1.0 million, $3.5 million, $3.5 million and $3.5 million, respectively, of the $15.0 million charge and ascharge. As of June 30, 2020, the remaining amounts payableMarch 31, 2021, $7.0 million of penalties were recorded with $3.5 million and $3.5 million have been recorded in other current liabilities and $3.5 million in other long-term liabilities, respectively.liabilities. The remaining $7.0 million is payable in annual installments of $3.5 million through April 2022. The Company expects recent and futureCompany's investments in remedial compliance measures will beto date have been sufficient to cover the $15.0 million suspension amount.
As part of the Consent Agreement, DDTC acknowledged that the Company voluntarily disclosed certain of the alleged Arms Export Control Act and ITAR violations, which were resolved pursuant to the Consent Agreement, cooperated in the DDTC's review, and instituted a number ofseveral compliance program improvements.
In May 2017, the Company submitted an initial notification to DDTC regarding potential violations related to certain export classifications obtained through the commodity jurisdiction process and a final voluntary disclosure in August 2017. The Company also submitted a voluntary self-disclosure regarding the same matter with the United States Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security ("BIS"). This matter remains under review by DDTC, BIS and the Department of Justice ("DOJ"). DDTC and BIS both acknowledged the submissions, and the Company executed tolling agreements for this matter with each of DDTC, BIS and DOJ. The DDTC tolling agreement has lapsed, and the BIS and DOJ tolling agreements have lapsed; FLIR is in discussion with DOJ on resolvingbeen extended to May 3, 2021 and July 15, 2021, respectively. On April 29, 2021, the matter. The Company executed a tollingsettlement agreement with BIS that resulted in a civil penalty of approximately $0.3 million and has extendedan obligation of the agreement, suspending the statuteCompany to conduct two internal audits of limitations through September 1, 2020.its export controls compliance program. The DOJ matter remains ongoing.
In June 2017, BIS informed the Company of additional export licensing requirements that restrict the Company’s ability to sell certain thermal products without a license to customers in China not identified on a list maintained by the United States Department of Commerce. This action was precipitated by concerns of sale without a license or potential diversion of some of the Company's products to prohibited end users and to countries subject to economic and other sanctions implemented by the United States. BIS subsequently favorably modified these restrictions to reduce the applicability of the restrictions to sales of FLIR's Tau camera cores (as opposed to finished products containing Tau camera cores) to customers in China not identified on a list maintained by the United States Department of Commerce and persons in a country other than those in the Export Administration Regulations ("EAR") Country Group A:5 (Supplement No. 1 to Part 740 of the EAR). If the Company is found to have violated applicable rules and regulations with respect to customers and limitations on the export and end use of the Company’s products, the Company could be subject to substantial fines and penalties, suspension of existing licenses or other authorizations and/or loss or suspension of export privileges.
At this time, based on available information regarding these proceedings, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the time it may take to resolve these matters or the amount or range of potential loss, penalty or other government action, if any, that may be incurred in connection with these matters. However, an unfavorable outcome could result in substantial fines and penalties or loss or suspension of export privileges or of particular authorizations that could be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows in and following the period in which such an outcome becomes estimable or known.

SkyWatch Product Quality Matters
In March 2016, the Company learned of potential quality concerns with respect to as many as 315 Level III and Level IV SkyWatch Surveillance Towers sold by FLIR and companies acquired by FLIR from 2002 through 2014. The Company notified customers who purchased the affected SkyWatch Towers of the potential concerns and, as a precautionary measure, also temporarily suspended production of all Level III and Level IV SkyWatch Towers pending the completion of its review and the implementation of any necessary remedial measures. The Company identified the cause of these quality issues, notified customers of their option to request repair and modification of their in-field units, and has begun in-field repairs of identified affected units.
While there still remains uncertainty related to estimating the costs associated with a potential remedy and number of units which may require such remedy, the Company currently estimates the range of potential loss on remaining units to be between $3.0 million and $9.6 million. As no single amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the Company has recorded an accrual of $3.0 million in other current liabilities as of June 30, 2020. Factors underlying this estimated range of loss may change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from this estimate.
Shareholder Derivative Lawsuit
In June 2020, a shareholder filed a derivative lawsuit in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware, Case No. 2020-0464, against the Company, as a nominal defendant, and certain current and former directors of the Company.

Shareholder Derivative Lawsuit - (Continued)
Pointing to the Company’s 2015 settlement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission of alleged United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violations and 2018 settlement with United States Department of State of alleged export control violations, the complaint alleges that the Company’s directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the Company had internal controls in place that would have prevented the alleged underlying misconduct and these settlements. The complaint also asserts claims for, among other matters, corporate waste and unjust enrichment, and seeks unspecified monetary damages from the individual defendants, injunctive relief, disgorgement of director compensation, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Because the complaint is derivative in nature, it does not seek monetary damages from the Company. However, the Company may be required to advance, and ultimately be responsible for, the legal fees and costs incurred by the individual defendants. The Company expects to filefiled a motion to dismiss in the third quarter of 2020. Following the announcement on January 4, 2021 of the acquisition of the Company by Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“Teledyne”), the parties stipulated to stay the action pending the close of the transaction, termination of the transaction, or through June 30, 2021, whichever occurs first.
Merger-Related Litigation
In connection with the Company’s pending acquisition by Teledyne, six lawsuits have been filed against the Company and the board of directors of the Company (“Board of Directors”) in federal court: Baird v. FLIR Systems Inc., et al.; Johnson v. FLIR Systems, Inc., et al.; Hayman v. FLIR Systems, Inc., et al.; Keller v. FLIR Systems, Inc., et al.; Coffman v. FLIR Systems et al.; and Sheridan v. FLIR Systems, Inc. et al. The Johnson action also names Teledyne and certain of its subsidiaries as defendants. Each of the aforementioned complaints assert claims for violations of Securities Exchange Act Section 14(a) and Rule 14a-9 based on allegations that the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed by Teledyne with the SEC omits material facts and/or includes materially incomplete and misleading information. The lawsuits also assert control person claims under Securities Exchange Act Section 20(a) against the Board of Directors and, in the case of the Johnson action, against Teledyne’s board of directors. The plaintiffs in the individual complaints agreed that supplemental disclosures included in Amendment No. 1 to the Form S-4 mooted their disclosure-related claims and voluntarily dismissed their complaints, and in April 2021, the Company agreed to pay a mootness fee to plaintiffs’ counsel totaling approximately $0.4 million.
Other Matters
The Company is also subject to other legal and administrative proceedings, investigations, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business not specifically identified above. In these identified matters and others not specifically identified, the Company records a liability with respect to a matter when management believes it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the Company can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss. The Company believes it has recorded adequate provisions for any probable and estimable losses for matters in existence on the date hereof. The Company reviews these provisions to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.
While the outcome of each of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes the probability is remote that the outcome of each of these matters will individually have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The costs to resolve all such matters may in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 is higher than the United States Federal tax rate of 21.0 percent mainly due to non-recognition of the tax benefit of current year operating losses of a foreign subsidiary, an increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to positions taken on prior year tax returns, the addition of valuation allowance against deferredhigher tax assets relatedrates applied to minority investments,income earned in certain foreign jurisdictions, United States tax applied to global intangible income, and state taxes. These amounts were offset partially by benefits related to USUnited States export sales, excess tax benefits from stock compensation, and research credits.

Of the amounts accrued, none$2.7 million is expected to be due within one year. The remaining transition tax will not accrue interest and will be paid in annual installments beginning in 2021 through 2024.
The Company has not provided United States, state or foreign income taxes for earnings generated after January 1, 2018 by certain subsidiaries outside the United States as management currently intends to reinvest the earnings in operations and other activities outside of the United States indefinitely. Should the Company subsequently elect to repatriate such foreign earnings, the Company would need to accrue and pay state and foreign income taxes, thereby reducing the amount of our cash. United States taxes would generally not be payable due to changes made by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $23.0$26.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $21.7$24.9 million would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. The Company anticipates approximately $10.9$3.1 million of itsthe net unrecognized tax benefits will be recognized within 12 months as thea result of settlements or effective settlements with various tax authorities, the closure of certain audits and the lapse of the applicable statute of limitations.
The Company classifies interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company had $4.6$2.8 million of accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits that are recorded as current and non-current accrued income taxes on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
During the three-month period ended December 31,fourth quarter of 2018, the Swedish Tax Authority (“STA”) issued a reassessment of tax for the year ending December 31, 2012 to one of the Company's non-operating subsidiaries in Sweden. The reassessment concerns the use of tax credits applied against capital gains pursuant to European Union Council Directive 2009/133/EC, commonly referred to as the EU Merger Directive, and assesses taxes and penalties totaling approximately $322.2$342.9 million (Swedish kronor 3.0 billion). On March 26, 2020, the Company received an adverse judgment from the First Instance Court of Sweden (the “Court”) regarding the STA's reassessment. The Company does not agree with the Court’s ruling, continues to believe the STA's arguments in the reassessment are not in accordance with Swedish tax regulations or the treaty for the avoidance of double taxation between Sweden and Belgium, and has appealed the decision to the Administrative Court of Appeal in Stockholm. Consequently, no adjustment to the Company's unrecognized tax benefits has been recorded in relation to this matter. The Company has received a respite from paying the reassessment until after a decision by the Administrative Court of Appeal by putting in place a bank guarantee to secure possible future payment of the tax and interest. There can be no assurance that the Company’s appeal will be successful.
During the three-month period ended September 30,third quarter of 2019, the European Commission announced the opening of a separate review to assess whether an excess profit tax ruling granted by Belgium to one of the Company's international subsidiaries is in breach of European Union state aid rules. The Company believes all taxes assessed by Belgium have been paid and has not adjusted unrecognized tax benefits in relation to this matter.
Management believes that the Company's recorded tax liabilities are adequate in the aggregate for its income tax exposures.
On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act)"CARES Act"), the bipartisan $2.0 trillion economic relief package aimed at helping American workers and businesses impacted by the coronavirusCOVID-19 pandemic.

Impact of COVID-19
On January 30, 2020,The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant disruptions to the World Health Organization declared the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) outbreak as aUnited States and global health emergency. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization raised the COVID-19 outbreakeconomy and has contributed to “pandemic” status. Early on, the transmissionsignificant volatility in financial markets. Transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread resulted in international, national and local border closings and other significant travel restrictions and disruptions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and customer activity, event cancellations and restrictions, service cancellations, reductions and other changes, significant challenges in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines and related government actions and policies, as well as general concern and uncertainty that has negatively affected the U.S. and global economy and financial environments. More recently, state and local jurisdictions started to lift mandatory stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders and started gradually to ease restrictions. In addition, as cases have resurged in parts of the U.S., including areas in which we maintain large facilities, we have seen governments slow or reverse efforts to reopen or shift into later phases of recovery, with increased risks to our operations.
The health and safety of our employees across the globe remain our top priority during this crisis. We have enacted stringent safety protocols to protect our employees and ensure we can continue to service our customers. We initiated a site entry restriction policy for external visitors to our facilities. We have also developed contingency plans for staggered work schedules designed to reduce the number of employees working at a given time. We are regularly deep cleaning our facilities, advising all employees to follow safe hygiene practices, and requiring employees to stay home if they have any of the known symptoms or have come into contact with people who have tested positive for COVID-19. We have also implemented a global employee travel banrestrictions and allowed employees to work remotely if they are able to do so.
In aggregate, the outbreak did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial results infor the first sixthree-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. However, during the three months of 2020. Whileended March 31, 2021, the Industrial Technologies segment has experienced heighteneda reduced demand for its Elevated Skin Temperature (“EST”) cameras as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,solutions, which arewere being deployed to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, when compared to the virus, this increase has been partially offset by lower volume in commercial end markets such as maritime and security products.prior year quarter. The Defense Technologies segment has experienced administrative processing delays impactingan increased volume on several unmanned systems programs during the timing of bookings and revenue. These trends are likelythree months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to affect the segment’s results in subsequent quarters, although it is not yet possible to estimate the longer-term effects of the pandemic on demand for EST screening technology and other products.prior year quarter.
We continue to monitor the rapidly evolving situation related to COVID-19. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our operations or financial results will further depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the status of state and local government reopening plans and any potential recurrenceresurgence of illness and the reimposition of certain restrictions in connection therewith, additional actions taken by governments, businesses and individuals to contain the virus or address its impact, new information which may emerge concerning the severity or treatability of the virus, the successful rollout of vaccines, new strains of the virus, and the extent of the economic downturn resulting from the response to the virus, among others.

Consolidated Operating Results
The following discussion provides an overview of our operating results by addressing key elements in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The “Segment Operating Results” section that follows describes the contributions of each of our business segments to our consolidated revenue and earnings from operations. Given the nature of our business, we believe revenue and earnings from operations, or operating income (including operating margin percentage), are most relevant to an understanding of our performance at a segment level. Additionally, at the segment level we disclose backlog, which represents orders received for products or services for which a sales agreement is in place and no revenue has been recognized. Backlog is not an absolute indicator of future revenue because a portion of the orders in backlog could be delayed or canceled at the customer's discretion. Further, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as described above within “Impact of COVID-19,” we are unsure how future results will compare to historic trends in the conversion of backlog to revenue.
The following table summarizes our consolidated operating results for the periods presented (in thousands, except percentages):

Revenue. Consolidated revenueThe increase for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively was consistent at $482.0 million. Consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $932.9 million,March 31, 2021 as compared to $926.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, reflecting an increase of $6.2 million or 0.7 percent. The revenue increaseprior year quarter was primarily attributable to heightened demand for Elevated Skin Temperature ("EST") camerasincreased volume on several unmanned systems programs in IndustrialDefense Technologies as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and contributions of unmanned revenues from the Aeryon Labs and Endeavor Robotics acquisitionswell as increased demand in Defense Technologies. These increases were partially offset by lower volume incertain commercial end markets such as maritime and security products in Industrial TechnologiesTechnologies. The increase was partially offset by shipment timing and the completion of certain contracts that contributed to revenue in the prior year quarter in Defense Technologies and reduced volume for EST solutions in Industrial Technologies.
The timing of orders, scheduling of backlog, and fluctuations in demand in various regions of the world can give rise to quarter to quarter and year over year fluctuations in the mix of revenue. Consequently, year over year comparisons for any given quarter may not be indicative of comparisons using longer time periods. We currently expect total annual revenue for 20202021 to be
higher than 2019 in line with 2020 revenue; however, unexpected changes in economic conditions from key customer markets or other major unanticipated events may cause total revenue, and the mix of revenue between our segments, to vary from quarter to quarter during the year.
International sales accounted for 49.645.3 percent and 44.251.4 percent of total revenue for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively. International sales accounted for 50.4 percent and 44.8 percent of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The proportion of our international revenue compared to total revenue will fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to normal variation in order activity across various regions as well as specific factors that may affect one region and not another. Overall, we anticipate that revenue from international sales will continue to comprise a significant percentage of total revenue.
Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods soldThe increase for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $229.8 million,March 31, 2021 as compared to $248.6 million for the prior year quarter. The decreasequarter was primarily associated with lowerattributable to the increased revenue volume and intangible asset amortization in Defense Technologies and favorableunfavorable product mix in Industrial Technologies. Cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $461.4 million, compared to $459.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The slight increase was primarily associated with increases in unmanned revenues from the Aeryon Labs and Endeavor Robotics acquisitions and increased intangible asset amortization in Defense Technologies, partially offset by favorable product mix in Industrial Technologies.
Cost of goods sold includes materials, labor and overhead costs incurred in the manufacturing of products and services sold in the period as well as warranty costs. Material costs include raw materials, purchased components and sub-assemblies, outside processing and inbound freight costs. Labor and overhead costs consist of direct and indirect manufacturing costs, including wages and fringe benefits, operating supplies, depreciation and amortization, occupancy costs, and purchasing, receiving and inspection costs.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $252.2 million, compared to $233.4 million for the prior year quarter. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $471.6 million, compared to $467.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Gross margin, defined as gross profit divided by revenue, increased to 52.3 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from 48.4 percent in in the prior year quarter, primarily attributable to favorable product mix in Industrial Technologies and lower intangible asset amortization. Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was consistent at approximately 50.5 percent.
Research and development expenses.Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $56.0 million, or 11.6 percent of revenue, compared to $53.0 million, or 11.0 percent of revenue for the prior year quarter. Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $109.9 million, or 11.8 percent of revenue, compared to $100.6 million, or 10.9 percent of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2019. We have, and will continue to have, fluctuations in quarterly spending depending on product development needs and overall business spending priorities and believe that annual spending levels are most indicative of our commitment to research and development. Over the past five annual periods through December 31, 2019,2020, our annual research and development expenses have varied between 8.58.9 percent and 10.810.9 percent of revenue, and we currently expect these expenses to remain within that approximate range, on an annual basis, for the foreseeable future.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expensesThe decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $88.7 million, or 18.4 percent of revenue,March 31, 2021 as compared to $113.7 million, or 23.6 percent of revenue for the prior year quarter. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $204.9 million, or 22.0 percent of revenue, compared to $218.2 million, or 23.5 percent of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Reductions for both the three and six month periods werequarter was primarily attributable to operating expense reductions from Project Be Ready and decreases in intangible asset amortization, marketing and travel and deferred compensation expenses.costs.
Restructuring.Restructuring expenses. In the first quarter of 2020, we initiated a strategy-driven restructuring plan, Project Be Ready, to simplify our product portfolio and better align resources with higher growth opportunities while reducing costs. Project Be Ready includes an organizational realignment, targeted workforce reductions, and facility optimization initiatives. All previously approved ongoing restructuring activities that were in process as of January 1, 2020 have beenwere consolidated into Project Be Ready. We recordedThe decrease in net pre-tax restructuring charges recorded for these programs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 of $7.7 million and $28.5 million, respectively, which primarily representMarch 31, 2021 as compared to the prior year quarter was driven by reduced Project Be Ready activity including lower employee separation costs and reduced third party and other costs. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded net pre-tax restructuring charges of $3.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively, in connection with other restructuring activities. Refer to Note 19, "Restructuring" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $7.0 million, compared to $7.3 million for the prior year quarter. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $13.9 million, compared to $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively,
March 31, 2021 was primarily associated with the $425 millionour 2.500 percent senior unsecured notes (the “2030 Notes”) in aggregate principal amount of our 3.125 percent senior unsecured notes$500.0 million that were issued and sold on August 3, 2020 and interest on amounts drawn under our credit facility. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily associated with our previous 3.125 percent senior unsecured notes (the “2021 Notes”) in aggregate principal amount of $425.0 million and interest on amounts drawn under our credit facility. The 2021 Notes were redeemed in full in connection with the August 2020 issuance of the 2030 Notes in a public offering.
Other income (loss), net. The change in other income (loss), net for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the prior year quarter was primarily attributable to increased gains in our deferred compensation plans.
Income taxes. Our income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $20.6 million and $28.4 million, respectively, which represents an effective tax rate of 25.222.4 percent and 27.0 percent. Our income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $12.0 million and $25.0 million, respectively, which represented an effective tax rate of 20.733.5 percent, and 18.8 percent.respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 is higher than the United States Federal tax rate of 21 percent due to an increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to positions taken on prior year tax returns, higher tax rates applied to income earned in certain foreign jurisdictions, United States tax applied to global intangible income, and state taxes. These amounts were offset partially by benefits related to United States export sales, excess tax benefits from stock compensation, and research credits.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is higher than the United States Federal tax rate of 21 percent due to the non-recognition of the tax benefit of current year operating losses of a foreign subsidiary, an increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to positions taken on prior year tax returns, the addition of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets related to minority investments, and state taxes. These amounts were offset partially by benefits related to US export sales and research credits. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 is lower than the United States Federal tax rate of 21 percent mainly due to a reduction in previously non-deductible interest expense and excess tax benefits from stock compensation, offset partially by state taxes, higher tax rates applied to income earned in certain foreign jurisdictions, and other discrete items.
During the three-month period ending December 31,fourth quarter of 2018, the Swedish Tax Authority (“STA”) issued a reassessment of tax for the year ending December 31, 2012 to one of our non-operating subsidiaries in Sweden. The reassessment concerns the use of tax credits applied against capital gains pursuant to European Union Council Directive 2009/133/EC, commonly referred to as the EU Merger Directive, and assesses taxes and penalties totaling approximately $322.2$342.9 million (Swedish kronor 3.0 billion). On March 26, 2020, we received an adverse judgment from the First Instance Court of Sweden (the “Court”) regarding the STA's reassessment. We do not agree with the Court’s ruling, continue to believe the STA's arguments in the reassessment are not in accordance with Swedish tax regulations or the treaty for the avoidance of double taxation between Sweden and Belgium, and have appealed the decision to the Administrative Court of Appeal in Stockholm. Consequently, no adjustment to the unrecognized tax benefits has been recorded in relation to this matter. We received a respite from paying the reassessment until after a decision by the Administrative Court of Appeal by putting in place a bank guarantee to secure possible future payment of the tax and interest. There can be no assurance that the appeal will be successful.
During the three-month period ended September 30,third quarter of 2019, the European Commission announced the opening of a separate review to assess whether an excess profit tax ruling granted by Belgium to one of our international subsidiaries is in breach of European Union state aid rules. We believe all taxes assessed by Belgium have been paid and hashave not adjusted unrecognized tax benefits in relation to this matter.
On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act)"CARES Act"), the bipartisan $2.0 trillion economic relief package aimed at helping American workers and businesses impacted by the coronavirusCOVID-19 pandemic. TheThrough March 31, 2021 the CARES Act along with earlier issued IRS guidance, has allowed us to defer certainnot materially affected our income tax payments. The CARES Act, among other things, also contains numerous other provisions which may benefit us.provision or deferred tax assets or liabilities. We will continue to assessmonitor the effect of the CARES Act and ongoing government guidance related to COVID-19 that may be issued.

On January 11, 2019, a standby letter of credit not to exceed Swedish kronor 2.2 billion, was issued under a new bilateral letter of credit reimbursement agreement ("L/C Agreement") to secure a payment guarantee required by the Swedish Tax AuthoritiesAuthority in order to grant the original respite from paying the tax reassessment described in Note 16, "Income Taxes" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statement.Statements. The outstanding amount of the L/C Agreement was equivalent to approximately $238.2$254.6 million at June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. While outstanding amounts under the L/C Agreement do not reduce the available revolving credit from the Credit Agreement, they are considered indebtedness and influence the incremental debt capacity governed by our Credit Agreement covenants. The standby letter of credit was further amended on April 24, 2020 to reflect the new respite.
For the next 12 months, we anticipate that we will be able to meet our liquidity needs, including servicing our debt, through existing cash on hand, cash generated from operations and, if needed, amounts available on our existing credit facilities or financing available from other sources. However, as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and our operations evolve, we will continue to assess our liquidity needs. An extended period of global supply chain and economic disruption could materially affect our business, results of operations, access to sources of liquidity and financial condition, and could materially adversely impact our customers or suppliers. In the event of a sustained market deterioration, we may need additional liquidity, which would require us to evaluate available alternatives and take appropriate actions. In addition to the acquisitions and divestiture disclosed elsewhere, we have evaluated and expect to continue to evaluate possible transactions. Such transactions may be material and involve cash, our securities or the assumption or incurrence of additional indebtedness.
The following table summarizes cash flow information for the periods presented (in thousands):
For a discussion of these items, see Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Accounting Standards Updates" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Management believes the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the consolidated financial statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. See Management's Discussion and Analysis and the discussion of critical accounting policies and use of estimates as reported in Note 1, "Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 15,14, "Contingencies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.2020. Actual results in these areas could differ materially from management's estimates. There have been no significant changes in the Company's assumptions regarding critical accounting estimates during the first sixthree months ended June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
There were no material changes to the Company's contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of its business during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020. The Company borrowed an additional $175.0 million under the revolving credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
See Note 15, "Contingencies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the disclosure of certain matters by the Company to the United States Department of State Office of Defense Trade Controls Compliance, communications to the Company from the United States Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security and the Company's current estimates of the range of potential loss associated with quality concerns identified by the Company regarding certain SkyWatch Surveillance Towers, among other matters.
The Company’s exposure to changes in market interest rates relates primarily to interest paid on the Company’s outstanding floating rate debt. The Company’s outstanding floating rate debt consists of amounts borrowed under our revolving loan facility as well as outstanding term loans. These borrowings bear interest at the respective Eurocurrency rate (e.g., LIBOR) plus a scheduled spread. Fluctuations in market interest rates will cause interest expense increases or decreases on such outstanding debt.
As our risk management objectives include mitigating the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the designated three-month Eurocurrency rate on the Company’s Swedish kronor term loan, the Company entered into a floored interest rate swap for the aggregate notional amount borrowedborrowed; changes in the cash flows of the interest rate swap is expected to exactly offset the changes in cash flows attributable to fluctuations in the three-month Eurocurrency-based interest payments. The net effect of the swap is to convert the floating interest rate basis to a fixed rate of 0.59 percent.
