NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Description of Business

Bruker Corporation, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (Bruker or the Company), develops, manufactures and distributes high-performance scientific instruments and analytical and diagnostic solutions that enable its customers to explore life and materials at microscopic, molecular and cellular levels. Many of the Company’s products are used to detect, measure and visualize structural characteristics of chemical, biological and industrial material samples. The Company’s products address the rapidly evolving needs of a diverse array of customers in life science research, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, applied markets, cell biology, clinical research, microbiology, in-vitro diagnostics, nanotechnology and materials science research.

The Company has two reportable segments, Bruker Scientific Instruments (BSI), which represented approximately 90.2% and 90.3% of the Company’s revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively and 90.7% and 90.2% of the Company’s revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively; and Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies (BEST), which represented the remainder of the Company’s revenues. Within BSI, the Company is organized into three operating segments: the Bruker BioSpin Group, the Bruker CALID Group and the Bruker Nano Group. For financial reporting purposes, the Bruker BioSpin Group, Bruker CALID Group and Bruker Nano Group operating segments are aggregated into the BSI reportable segment because each has similar economic characteristics, production processes, service offerings, types and classes of customers, methods of distribution and regulatory environments.

Bruker BioSpin — The Bruker BioSpin Group designs, manufactures and distributes enabling life science tools based on magnetic resonance technology. The majority of the Bruker BioSpin Group’s revenues are generated by academic and government research customers. Other customers include pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and nonprofit laboratories, as well as chemical, food and beverage, clinical and other industrial companies.

Bruker CALID (Chemicals, Applied Markets, Life Science, In-Vitro Diagnostics, Detection)- The Bruker CALID Group designs, manufactures and distributes life science mass spectrometry and ion mobility spectrometry solutions, analytical and process analysis instruments and solutions based on infrared and Raman molecular spectroscopy technologies and radiological/nuclear detectors for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE) detection. Customers of the Bruker CALID Group include: academic institutions and medical schools; pharmaceutical, biotechnology and diagnostics companies; contract research organizations; nonprofit and for-profit forensics laboratories; agriculture, food and beverage safety laboratories; environmental and clinical microbiology laboratories; hospitals and government departments and agencies.

Bruker Nano — The Bruker Nano Group designs, manufactures and distributes advanced X-ray instruments; atomic force microscopy instrumentation; advanced fluorescence optical microscopy instruments; analytical tools for electron microscopes and X-ray metrology; defect-detection equipment for semiconductor process control; handheld, portable and mobile X-ray fluorescence spectrometry instruments; and spark optical emission spectroscopy systems. Customers of the Bruker Nano Group include academic institutions, governmental customers, nanotechnology companies, semiconductor companies, raw material manufacturers, industrial companies, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies and other businesses involved in materials analysis.

The Company's BEST reportable segment develops and manufactures superconducting and non-superconducting materials and devices for use in renewable energy, energy infrastructure, healthcare and "big science" research. The segment focuses on metallic low temperature superconductors for use in magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear magnetic resonance, fusion energy research and other applications, as well as ceramic high temperature superconductors primarily for energy grid and magnet applications.

Total revenue	$	490.2	$	443.7	$	951.6	$	875.4

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to a promise to transfer a good or service that is fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period. As of June 30, 2019, remaining performance

7

obligations were approximately $1,110.8 million. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 83.1% of the remaining performance obligations over the next twelve months and the remaining performance obligations primarily within one to three years.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and deferred revenue, customer deposits and billings in excess of revenue recognized (contract liabilities) on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Contract assets—Most of the Company’s long-term contracts are billed as work progresses in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of certain milestones. Billing often occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Contract assets are generally classified as other current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The balance of contract assets as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $37.2 million and $25.9 million, respectively. The increase in the contract asset balance during the six month period ended June 30, 2019 is primarily a result of foreign currency translation and contracts that have been recognized as revenue during the six month period ending June 30, 2019 for which billing cannot contractually occur as of June 30, 2019.

Contract liabilities—The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance, resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet based on the timing of when revenue recognition is expected. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the contract liabilities were $310.0 million and $288.5 million, respectively. The increase in the contract liability balance during the six month period ended June 30, 2019 is primarily a result of new performance obligations entered into during the six month period. Approximately $137.0 million of the contract liability balance on December 31, 2018 was recognized as revenue during the six month period ended June 30, 2019.

3.    Acquisitions

The impact of all acquisitions, individually and collectively, on revenues, net income and total assets was not material. Pro forma financial information reflecting all acquisitions has not been presented because the impact, individually and collectively, on revenues, net income and total assets is not material. Amounts allocated to goodwill that are attributable to expected synergies are not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

2019

On April 2, 2019, the Company acquired Rave LLC (“Rave”), a privately held company, for a purchase price of $52.2 million with the potential for additional consideration of up to $5.0 million based on revenue and gross margin achievements in 2019 and 2020. Rave develops and manufactures nanomachining and laser photomask repair equipment. Rave will be integrated into the Bruker Nano Group within the BSI reportable segment. The acquisition of

The Company completed the fair value allocation in the fourth quarter of 2018. The amortization period for all intangible assets acquired in connection with Anasys is eight years, except for backlog which was amortized over one year.

4.    Stock-Based Compensation

On May 14, 2010, the Bruker Corporation 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan (2010 Plan) was approved by the Company's stockholders. The 2010 Plan provided for the issuance of up to 8,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The 2010 Plan allowed a committee of the Board of Directors (Compensation Committee) to grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards. The Compensation Committee had the authority to determine which employees would receive the awards, the amount of the awards and other terms and conditions of any awards. Awards granted under the 2010 Plan typically were made subject to a vesting period of three to five years.

On May 20, 2016, the Bruker Corporation 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan (2016 Plan) was approved by the Company's stockholders. With the approval of the 2016 Plan, no further grants have been made under the 2010 Plan. The 2016 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 9,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock and permits the grant of awards of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units, as well as cash-based awards. The 2016 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the authority to determine which employees will receive awards, the amount of any awards, and other terms and conditions of such awards. Awards granted under the 2016 Plan typically vest over a period of one to four years.

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the underlying requisite service period of the stock-based award.

Stock options to purchase the Company's common stock are periodically awarded to executive officers and other employees of the Company subject to a vesting period of three to four years. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. There were no stock options awarded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was as follows:

				Weighted
				Average
		Weighted		Remaining	Aggregate
	Shares Subject	Average		Contractual	Intrinsic Value

At June 30, 2019, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $2.8 million associated with outstanding stock option awards granted under the Company's stock plans over the weighted average remaining service period of 1.9 years. The Company expects to recognize additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $0.1 million associated with outstanding restricted stock awards granted under the Company's stock plans over the weighted average remaining service period of 0.1 year. The Company also expects to recognize additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $15.7 million associated with outstanding restricted stock units granted under the 2016 Plan over the weighted average remaining service period of 2.6 years.

5.    Earnings Per Share

Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Bruker Corporation, adjusted to reflect changes in the redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted net income per share computation includes the effect of shares which would be issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of restricted stock, reduced by the number of shares which are assumed to be purchased by the Company under the treasury stock method. There was no redemption value adjustment of the redeemable noncontrolling interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and net income per common share attributable to Bruker shareholders (dollars in millions, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
Net income attributable to Bruker Corporation, as reported	$	36.5	$	31.2	$	67.3	$	58.2
Weighted average shares outstanding:
Weighted average shares outstanding-basic		156.1		156.1		156.4		156.0
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options and restricted stock awards and units		1.5		0.9		1.3		1.0
		157.6		157.0		157.7		157.0
Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders:
Basic	$	0.23	$	0.20	$	0.43	$	0.37
Diluted	$	0.23	$	0.20	$	0.43	$	0.37

12

Stock options to purchase approximately 0.1 million shares and 0.2 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Approximately 0.1 million shares and 0.2 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

6.    Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies the following hierarchy to determine the fair value of financial instruments, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The levels in the hierarchy are defined as follows:

●Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

●Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

●Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The valuation techniques that may be used by the Company to determine the fair value of Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments are the market approach, the income approach and the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value based on current market expectations about those future amounts, including present value techniques, option-pricing models and the excess earnings method. The cost approach is based on the amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

The following tables set forth the Company's financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and presents them within the fair value hierarchy using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in millions):

			Quoted Prices		Significant

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of restricted cash, derivative instruments consisting of foreign exchange contracts, commodity contracts, derivatives embedded in certain purchase and sale contracts, accounts receivable, borrowings under a revolving credit agreement, accounts payable, contingent consideration, a hybrid instrument liability and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of the Company's cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash, accounts receivable, borrowings under a revolving credit agreement and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. Derivative assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's long-term debt consists principally of a private placement arrangement entered into in 2012 with various fixed interest rates based on the maturity date. The fair value of the long-term fixed interest rate debt, which has been classified as Level 2, was $213.0 million and $228.8 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, based on the outstanding amount at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, market prices and observable sources with similar maturity dates.

The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Fair value treatment may be elected either upon initial recognition of an eligible asset or liability or, for an existing asset or liability, if an event triggers a new basis of accounting. The Company did not elect to remeasure any of its existing financial assets or liabilities and did not elect the fair value option for any financial assets or liabilities which originated during the three or six months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018.

As part of certain acquisitions, the Company recorded contingent consideration liabilities that have been classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The contingent consideration represents the estimated fair value of future payments to the former shareholders of certain acquired companies based on the applicable acquired company achieving annual revenue and gross margin targets in certain years as specified in the relevant purchase and sale agreement. The Company initially values the contingent considerations by using a Monte Carlo simulation or an income approach method. The Monte Carlo method models future revenue and costs of goods sold projections and discounts the average results to present value. The income approach method involves calculating the earnout payment based on the forecasted cash flows, adjusting the future earnout payment for the risk of reaching the projected financials, and then discounting the future payments to present value by the counterparty risk. The counterparty risk considers the risk of the buyer having the cash to make the earnout payments and is commensurate with a cost of debt over an appropriate term.

The following table sets forth the changes in contingent consideration liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 (dollars in millions):

Balance at December 31, 2018	$	15.1

Current period adjustments		1.9
Current period settlements		(5.1)
Foreign currency effect		(0.1)
Balance at June 30, 2019	$	16.2

As part of the Mestrelab acquisition, the Company entered into an agreement with the noncontrolling interest holders that provides the Company with the right to purchase, and the noncontrolling interest holders with the right to sell, the remaining 49% of Mestrelab for cash at a contractually defined redemption value. These rights (an embedded derivative) are exercisable beginning in 2022 and can be accelerated, at a discounted redemption value, upon certain events related to post combination services. As the option is tied to continued employment, the Company classified the hybrid instrument (noncontrolling interest with an embedded derivative) as a long-term liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Subsequent to the acquisition, the carrying value of the hybrid instrument is remeasured to fair value with changes recorded to stock-based compensation expense in proportion to the requisite service period vested. The hybrid instrument is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table sets forth the changes in hybrid instrument liability for the six months ended June 30, 2019 (dollars in millions):

Balance at December 31, 2018	$	12.9
Current period adjustments		0.8

On October 27, 2015, the Company entered into a new revolving credit agreement, referred to as the 2015 Credit Agreement. The 2015 Credit Agreement provides a maximum commitment on the Company’s revolving credit line of $500 million and a maturity date of October 2020. Borrowings under the revolving credit line of the 2015 Credit Agreement accrue interest, at the Company’s option, at either (a) the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (iii) adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus margins ranging from 0.00% to 0.30% or (b) LIBOR, plus margins ranging from 0.90% to 1.30%. There is also a facility fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.20%.

16

Borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement are secured by guarantees from certain material subsidiaries, as defined in the 2015 Credit Agreement. The 2015 Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios related to maximum leverage and minimum interest coverage (as defined in the 2015 Credit Agreement). Specifically, the Company’s leverage ratio cannot exceed 3.5 and the Company’s interest coverage ratio cannot be less than 2.5. In addition to the financial ratios, the 2015 Credit Agreement contains negative covenants, including among others, restrictions on liens, indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, asset sales, dividends and transactions with affiliates. Failure to comply with any of these restrictions or covenants may result in an event of default on the 2015 Credit Agreement, which could permit acceleration of the debt and require the Company to prepay the debt before its scheduled due date.

The following is a summary of the maximum commitments and the net amounts available to the Company under the 2015 Credit Agreement and other lines of credit with various financial institutions located primarily in Germany and Switzerland that are unsecured and typically due upon demand with interest payable monthly, at June 30, 2019 (dollars in millions):

In January 2012, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement, referred to as the Note Purchase Agreement, with a group of accredited institutional investors. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold $240.0 million of senior notes, referred to as the Senior Notes, which consisted of the following:

●$20.0 million 3.16% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche A, due January 18, 2017;

●$15.0 million 3.74% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche B, due January 18, 2019;

●$105.0 million 4.31% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche C, due January 18, 2022; and

●$100.0 million 4.46% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche D, due January 18, 2024.

On January 18, 2017, the outstanding $20.0 million principal amount of Tranche A of the Senior Notes was repaid in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement. On January 18, 2019, the outstanding $15.0 million principal amount of Tranche B of the Senior Notes was repaid in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement.

Under the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company may issue and sell additional senior notes up to an aggregate principal amount of $600 million, subject to certain conditions. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on January 18 and July 18 of each year. The Senior Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. The Senior Notes rank pari passu in right of repayment with the Company’s other senior unsecured indebtedness. The Company may prepay some or all of the Senior Notes at any time in an amount not less than 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes to be prepaid, at a price equal to the sum of (a) 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and (b) the applicable make-whole amount, upon not less than 30 and no more than 60 days written notice to the holders of the Senior Notes. In the event of a change in control of the Company, as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company may be required to prepay the Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

17

The Note Purchase Agreement contains affirmative covenants, including, without limitation, maintenance of corporate existence, compliance with laws, maintenance of insurance and properties, payment of taxes, addition of subsidiary guarantors and furnishing notices and other information. The Note Purchase Agreement also contains certain restrictive covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur liens, transfer or sell assets, engage in certain mergers and consolidations and enter into transactions with affiliates. The Note Purchase Agreement also includes customary representations and warranties and events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Senior Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. In the case of a payment event of default, any holder of Senior Notes affected thereby may declare all Senior Notes held by it due and payable immediately. In the case of any other event of default, a majority of the holders of the Senior Notes may declare all the Senior Notes to be due and payable immediately. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, so long as any Senior Notes are outstanding the Company will not permit (i) its leverage ratio, as determined pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, to exceed 3.50 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter, (ii) its interest coverage ratio, as determined pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, to be less than 2.50 to 1 as of the end of any fiscal quarter for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters or (iii) priority debt at any time to exceed 25% of consolidated net worth, as determined pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Note Purchase Agreement and the 2015 Credit Agreement.

11.  Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Interest Rate Risks

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to outstanding variable rate debt and adverse movements in the related short-term market rates. Typically, the most significant component of the Company’s interest rate risk relates to amounts outstanding under the 2015 Credit Agreement.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk Management

The Company generates a substantial portion of its revenues and expenses in international markets which subjects its operations to the exposure of exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. The Company periodically enters into foreign currency contracts in order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in currency translation have on its monetary transactions. Under these arrangements, the Company typically agrees to purchase a fixed amount of a foreign currency in exchange for a fixed amount of U.S. Dollars or other currencies on specified dates with maturities of less than twelve months, with some agreements

18

extending to longer periods. The Company had the following notional amounts outstanding under foreign exchange contracts at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in millions):

In addition, the Company periodically enters into purchase and sales contracts denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the parties to the transaction. The Company accounts for these transactions separately valuing the “embedded derivative” component of these contracts. The contracts, denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the transacting parties, amounted to $89.4 million for the delivery of products and $5.9 million for the purchase of products at June 30, 2019 and $113.5 million for the delivery of products and $6.0 million for the purchase of products at December 31, 2018. The changes in the fair value of these embedded derivatives are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Commodity Price Risk Management

The Company has arrangements with certain customers under which it has a firm commitment to deliver copper based superconductor wire at a fixed price. In order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in the price of copper have on the Company’s sales of these commodities, the Company enters into commodity hedge contracts. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $7.3 million and $6.8 million, respectively. The changes in the fair value of these commodity contracts are recorded within interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

The amounts related to derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recorded within interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

12.  Provision for Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, calculated using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to be reflected in the tax return. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In addition, the Company accounts for uncertain tax positions that have reached a minimum recognition threshold.

The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $10.6 million and $11.8 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 22.3% and 27.3%, respectively. The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $18.3 million and $20.2 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 21.3% and 25.5%, respectively. The decrease in the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, was primarily due to the excess deduction associated with the exercise of stock-based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, was primarily due to the recording of a one-time tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of post-1986 untaxed foreign earnings and profits (toll charge) assessed under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act) due to the release of final regulations issued during the period ended March 31, 2019 and the excess deduction associated with the exercise of stock-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company's effective tax rate may change over time as the amount or mix of income and taxes changes among the jurisdictions in which the Company is subject to tax.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits, excluding penalties and interest, of approximately $6.6 million which, if recognized, would result in a reduction of the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company recognizes penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of

20

accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions was included in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Penalties and interest of $0.1 million were recorded in the provision for income taxes for unrecognized tax benefits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. There were no penalties or interest recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

The Company files tax returns in the United States, which includes federal, state and local jurisdictions, and many foreign jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The Company considers Germany, the United States and Switzerland to be its significant tax jurisdictions. The majority of the Company’s earnings are derived in Germany and Switzerland. Accounting for the various federal and local taxing authorities, the statutory rates for 2019 are approximately 30.0% and 20.0% for Germany and Switzerland, respectively. The mix of earnings in those two jurisdictions resulted in an increase of 3.3% from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company has not been a party to any tax holiday agreements. The tax years 2013 to 2018 are open to examination in Germany and Switzerland. Tax years 2011 to 2018 remain open for examination in the United States.

13.  Commitments and Contingencies

In accordance with ASC Topic 450, Contingencies, the Company accrues anticipated costs of settlement, damages or other costs to the extent specific losses are probable and estimable.

Litigation and Related Contingencies

Lawsuits, claims and proceedings of a nature considered normal to its businesses may be pending from time to time against the Company. Third parties might allege that the Company or its collaborators are infringing their patent rights or that the Company is otherwise violating their intellectual property rights. Loss contingency provisions are recorded if the potential loss from any claim, asserted or unasserted, or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated or a range of loss can be determined. These accruals represent management's best estimate of probable loss. Disclosure is also provided when it is reasonably possible that a loss will be incurred or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded provision. The Company believes the outcome of pending proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies.

Governmental Investigations

The Company is subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which it operates. From time to time, the Company is the subject of governmental investigations often involving regulatory, marketing and other business practices. These governmental investigations may result in the commencement of civil and criminal proceedings, fines, penalties and administrative remedies which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity.

In August 2018, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) informed the Company that it was conducting an investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including Bruker Korea Co., Ltd (Bruker Korea). The Company cooperated fully with the KFTC and on June 16, 2019, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $20,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter.

On October 19, 2017, the Company received a notice of investigation and subpoena to produce documents from the Division of Enforcement of the SEC. The subpoena sought information related to an employee terminated as part of a restructuring and certain matters involving the Company’s policies and accounting practices related to revenue recognition and restructuring activities, as well as related financial reporting, disclosure and compliance matters, since January 1, 2013. The subpoena also sought information concerning, among other things, the Company’s previously identified material weakness in internal controls over the accounting for income taxes, related financial reporting matters and certain payments for non-employee travel expenses. On April 25, 2019, the Staff notified the Company that it had

21

concluded its investigation and, based on the information received to date, does not intend to recommend an enforcement action by the SEC against the Company.

Additionally, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of outside counsel, conducted an internal investigation into practices of certain business partners in China and into the conduct of former employees of the Bruker Optics division in China which raised questions of compliance with laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and/or compliance with the Company’s business policies and code of conduct. The Audit Committee has concluded its internal investigation.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies related to these matters.

Letters of Credit and Guarantees

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had bank guarantees of $134.6 million and $138.3 million, respectively, related primarily to customer advances. These arrangements guarantee the refund of advance payments received from customers in the event that the merchandise is not delivered or warranty obligations are not fulfilled in compliance with the terms of the contract.

14.  Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. The new standard, effective as of January 1, 2019, supersedes present U.S. GAAP guidance on leases and requires all leases with terms longer than 12 months to be reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities, as well as provide additional disclosures. The lease liability represents the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease and will be measured as the present value of the lease payments. The right-of-use asset represents the lessee’s right to use a specified asset for the lease term, and will be measured at the lease liability amount, adjusted for lease prepayment, lease incentives received and the lessee’s initial direct costs.

Under ASU No. 2016-02, companies are required to transition to the new standard in the period of adoption at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements (January 1, 2017 for the Company). In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11 as an update to ASU No. 2016-02, which in part provided companies the option of transitioning to the new standard as of the adoption date and recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company adopted the new standard as of January 1, 2019 using the alternative transition method under ASU No. 2018-11 and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance sheet. The Company's prior period financial statements were not adjusted due to adopting the new standard based on the alternative transition method. The Company elected the available package of practical expedients for leases that commenced prior to the effective date that allows it to not reassess: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and 3) the accounting treatment of initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. The Company also elected the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat lease and non-lease components of leases as a single lease component for all asset classes. The adoption of the new standard resulted in recording $75.5 million and $77.9 million of ROU assets and lease liabilities, respectively, as of January 1, 2019 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. The adoption of the new standard did not significantly affect the Company’s results of operations.

Starting in the first quarter of 2019, the Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Leases with a term greater than 12 months are recognized on the balance sheet as ROU assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are directly expensed as incurred. Leases are classified as either operating or finance depending on the specific terms of the arrangement.

22

The Company’s leases mainly consist of facilities, office equipment, and vehicles. The majority of leases are classified as operating, with certain leases classified as finance leases based on the specific terms of the arrangement. The remaining lease term ranges from 2019 to 2029, with some leases including an option to extend the lease for varying periods of time or to terminate prior to the end of the lease term. Certain lease agreements contain provisions for future rent increases. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise fixed payments, and the exercise price of a Company option to purchase the underlying asset if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the option. The Company’s leases typically do not contain residual value guarantees.

At the commencement date, operating and finance lease liabilities, and their corresponding ROU assets, are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. The lease term includes the noncancellable period of the lease, plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable, therefore an incremental borrowing rate is used to calculate the lease liability. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Certain adjustments to the ROU asset may be required for items such as prepayments, lease incentives received or initial direct costs paid.

Operating lease cost is recognized over the lease term on a straight-line basis, while finance lease cost is amortized over the expected term on a straight-line basis. Variable lease cost not dependent on an index or rate is recognized when incurred.

The components of lease cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are as follows (dollars in millions):

Share Repurchase Program

In May 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan (the Repurchase Program) authorizing repurchase of common stock in the amount of up to $300.0 million from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as management deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. The Company repurchased a total of 2,300,635 shares at an aggregate cost of $100.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. No repurchases occurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Any future repurchases will be funded from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The remaining authorization as of August 2, 2019 is $200.0 million and this Repurchase Program expires on May 13, 2021.

Cash Dividends on Shares of Common Stock

On February 22, 2016, the Company announced the establishment of a dividend policy and the declaration by its Board of Directors of an initial quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.04 per share of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock. Under the dividend policy, the Company will target a cash dividend to the Company's shareholders in the amount of $0.16 per share per annum, payable in equal quarterly installments.

Subsequent dividend declarations and the establishment of record and payment dates for such future dividend payments, if any, are subject to the Board of Directors' continuing determination that the dividend policy is in the best interests of the Company's shareholders. The dividend policy may be suspended or cancelled at the discretion of the Board of Directors at any time.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in other comprehensive income (loss), but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity, net of tax. The Company’s other comprehensive income (loss) is composed primarily of foreign

19.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements of fair value measurements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. This ASU is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), which provides new guidance intended to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. This ASU is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test. This ASU will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or statements of cash flows upon adoption.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Statements contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which express that we "believe," "anticipate," "plan," "expect," "seek," "estimate," or "should," as well as other statements which are not historical fact, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations, but are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated, including, but not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to adverse changes in conditions in the global economy and volatility in the capital markets, the integration and assumption of liabilities of businesses we have acquired or may acquire in the future, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, our ability to successfully implement our restructuring initiatives, changing technologies, product development and market acceptance of our products, the cost and pricing of our products, manufacturing, competition, loss of key personnel, dependence on collaborative partners, key suppliers and contract manufacturers, capital spending and government funding policies, changes in governmental regulations, the use and protection of intellectual property rights, litigation, and other risk factors discussed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. These and other factors are identified and described in more detail in our filings with the SEC, including, without limitation, our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and subsequent filings. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements other than as required by law.

Although our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), we believe describing revenue and expenses, excluding the effects of foreign currency, acquisitions and divestitures, as well as certain other charges, net, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. Specifically, management believes that organic and constant currency revenue growth and free cash flow, which are non-GAAP financial measures, as well as non-GAAP gross profit margin and non-GAAP operating margin, provide relevant and useful information that is widely used by equity analysts, investors and competitors in our industry, as well as by our management, in assessing both consolidated and business unit performance. We define the term organic revenue as GAAP revenue excluding the effect of foreign currency translation changes and the effect of acquisitions and divestitures. Related to organic growth, we also present constant currency information because we believe this information provides a useful framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of only foreign currency rate fluctuations. We define the term non-GAAP gross profit margin as GAAP gross profit margin with certain non-GAAP measures excluded and non-GAAP operating margin as GAAP operating margin with certain non-GAAP measures excluded. These non-GAAP measures exclude costs related to restructuring actions, acquisition and related integration expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, costs associated with our global information technology transition initiative, and other non-operational costs that are infrequent or non-recurring in nature and we believe these are useful measures to evaluate our continuing business. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant, and equipment. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure to evaluate our business as it indicates the amount of cash generated after additions to property, plant, and equipment which is available for, among other things, investments in our business, acquisitions, share repurchases, dividends and repayment of debt. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our period-over-period operating performance because our management believes they provide more comparable measures of our continuing business because they adjust for certain items that are not reflective of the underlying performance of our business. These measures may also be useful to investors in evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business. We regularly use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage, and evaluate our business results and make operating decisions. We also measure our employees and compensate them, in part, based on such non-GAAP measures and use this information for our planning and forecasting activities. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, or

29

superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and therefore, may not be comparable among companies.

OVERVIEW

We are a developer, manufacturer and distributor of high-performance scientific instruments and analytical and diagnostic solutions that enable our customers to explore life and materials at microscopic, molecular and cellular levels. Our corporate headquarters are located in Billerica, Massachusetts. We maintain major technical and manufacturing centers in Europe and North America, and we have sales offices located throughout the world. Bruker is organized into two reportable segments, Bruker Scientific Instruments (BSI) and Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies (BEST). Within the BSI Segment, we are organized into three operating segments: the Bruker BioSpin Group, the Bruker CALID Group, and the Bruker Nano Group.

Revenue for the three month period ended June 30, 2019 was $490.2 million, an increase of $46.5 million, or 10.5%, from the three month period ended June 30, 2018. Revenue from companies acquired within the past twelve months represented $38.6 million, or 8.7%, of the increase, and the unfavorable foreign currency translation effect of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and other currencies represented a $13.3 million, or 3.0%, decline. Excluding these effects, organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, increased by $21.2 million, or 4.8%. Revenues increased on an organic basis within the Bruker CALID Group and the Bruker BioSpin Group, and at the BEST Segment. From a geographic perspective, revenues increased in the North America, China and Japan regions.

Revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2019 was $951.6 million, an increase of $76.2 million, or 8.7%, from the six month period ended June 30, 2018. Revenue from companies acquired within the past twelve months represented $64.5 million, or 7.4%, of the increase, and the unfavorable foreign currency translation effect of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and other currencies represented a $33.0 million, or 3.8%, decline. Excluding these effects, organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, increased by $44.7 million, or 5.1%. Revenues increased on an organic basis within the Bruker CALID Group and the Bruker BioSpin Group, and at the BEST Segment. From a geographic perspective, revenues increased in the North America, China and Japan regions.

Our gross profit margin increased to 47.0% during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 46.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our gross profit margin increased to 46.8% during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 46.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in gross profit margin in both periods resulted primarily from favorable product mix, operational improvements, accretive acquisitions and the positive impact of foreign currency translation.

Our operating margin decreased to 10.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 11.0% during the three months ended June 30, 2018. The operating margin decline was primarily due to assumption of expenses related to recent acquisitions. Our operating margin increased to 10.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 9.9% during the six months ended June 30, 2018. The operating margin expansion was primarily due to favorable product mix, operational improvements, accretive acquisitions and the positive impact of foreign currency translation.

Our income tax provision in the three month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $10.6 million and $11.8 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 22.3% and 27.3%, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of a favorable discrete item in the period. Our income tax provision in the six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $18.3 million and $20.2 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 21.3% and 25.5%, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the recording of items related to the update of a one-time tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of post-1986 untaxed foreign earnings and profits (toll charge) assessed under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act) in the six months ended June 30, 2019, as well as a favorable discrete item.

Diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended June 30, 2019 were $0.23, an increase of $0.03 compared to $0.20 per share in the three month period ended June 30, 2018. Diluted earnings per share for the six month period ended June 30, 2019 were $0.43, an increase of $0.06 compared to $0.37 per share in the six month period

30

ended June 30, 2018. The increase in both periods was primarily due to revenue growth and higher gross and operating profit.

Operating cash flow for the six month period ended June 30, 2019 was a source of cash of $24.8 million. For the six month period ended June 30, 2019, our free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, was ($3.8) million, calculated as follows (dollars in millions):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	24.8	$	79.9
Less: Purchases of property, plant and equipment		28.6		17.5
Free Cash Flow	$	(3.8)	$	62.4

We can experience quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in our operating results as a result of various factors, some of which are outside our control, such as:

● the timing of governmental stimulus programs and academic research budgets;

● the time it takes between the date customer orders and deposits are received, systems are shipped and accepted by our customers and full payment is received;

● the time it takes to satisfy local customs requirements and other export/import requirements;

● the time it takes for customers to construct or prepare their facilities for our products; and

● the time required to obtain governmental licenses.

These factors have in the past affected the amount and timing of revenue recognized on sales of our products and receipt of related payments and will continue to do so in the future. Accordingly, our operating results in any particular quarter may not necessarily be an indication of any future quarter’s operating performance.

In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan (the Repurchase Program) authorizing repurchase of common stock in the amount of up to $300.0 million from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as management deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. We repurchased a total of 2,300,635 shares at an aggregate cost of $100.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. No repurchases occurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Any future repurchases will be funded from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The remaining authorization as of August 2, 2019 is $200.0 million and this Repurchase Program expires on May 13, 2021.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires that we 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates and judgments on our historical experience, current market and economic conditions, industry trends, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable and form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies and estimates to be both those most important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and those that require the most estimation and subjective judgment:

● Revenue recognition;

● Income taxes;

● Inventories; and

● Goodwill, other intangible assets and other long-lived assets.

Excluding these charges, our non-GAAP gross profit margins for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were 49.5% and 47.6%, respectively. The increase in gross profit margin resulted from favorable product mix, operational improvements, accretive acquisitions and the positive impact of foreign currency translation.

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased to $124.5 million, or 25.4% of total revenue, from $110.6 million, or 24.9% of total revenue, for the comparable period in 2018.

The increase was a result of the assumption of expenses associated with acquisitions.

Other Charges, Net

Other charges, net of $3.9 million recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were primarily related to the BSI Segment and consisted of $0.8 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $0.8 million related to professional fees, $1.1 million of costs associated with our global information technology (IT) transformation initiative and $1.2 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2019 and 2018. The IT transformation initiative is a multi-year project aimed at updating and integrating our global enterprise resource planning and human resource information systems.

Other charges, net of $2.2 million recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were primarily related to the BSI Segment and consisted of $0.6 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $0.6 million related to professional fees, $0.9 million of costs associated with our global IT transformation initiative and $0.1 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2018 and 2017.

Operating Income

Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $53.5 million, resulting in an operating margin of 10.9%, compared to operating income of $48.8 million, and an operating margin of 11.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Included in operating income were various charges for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs totaling $20.2 million and $10.1 million for the three

33

months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Excluding these charges, our non-GAAP operating margins for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were 15.0% and 13.3%, respectively. The non-GAAP operating margin expansion was primarily due to favorable product mix, operational improvements, accretive acquisitions and the positive impact of foreign currency translation.

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

Interest and other income (expense), net during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was an expense of $5.9 million compared to an expense of $5.5 million for the comparable period of 2018.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $3.7 million, realized and unrealized losses on foreign currency denominated transactions of $1.5 million and $0.6 million related to pension plan expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $2.6 million, realized and unrealized losses on foreign currency denominated transactions of $1.5 million and $1.3 million related to pension plan expenses.

Income Tax Provision

The 2019 and 2018 effective tax rates were estimated using projected annual pre-tax income on a jurisdictional basis. Expected tax benefits, including tax credits and incentives, the impact of changes to valuation allowances and the effect of jurisdictional differences in statutory tax rates were also considered in the calculation.

The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $10.6 million and $11.8 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 22.3% and 27.3%, respectively.  The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of a favorable non-recurring discrete item in the period.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represented the minority shareholders' proportionate share of the net income recorded by our majority-owned subsidiaries.

Net Income Attributable to Bruker Corporation

Our net income attributable to Bruker for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $36.5 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to $31.2 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the comparable period in 2018. The increase in net income and earnings per diluted share was primarily driven by the increase in revenue and significant gross and operating profit improvements.

Income Tax Provision

The 2019 and 2018 effective tax rates were estimated using projected annual pre-tax income on a jurisdictional basis.

Operating income included $40.1 million and $24.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, of various charges for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, restructuring costs and costs associated with our global IT transformation initiative. Excluding these charges, non-GAAP operating margins were 15.1% and 13.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. While the GAAP operating margin was relatively flat compared to the same period in the prior year, the non-GAAP operating margin increase was primarily a result of favorable product mix, operational improvements, accretive acquisitions and the positive impact of foreign currency translation.

BEST Segment operating income increased for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $6.2 million, resulting in an operating margin of 6.2%, compared to operating income of $3.9 million, resulting in an operating margin of 4.4%, for the comparable period in 2018.

Excluding these charges, non-GAAP operating margins were 6.7% and 4.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. GAAP and non-GAAP operating margins increased primarily due to increased revenue volume, product mix and operational improvements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We anticipate that our existing cash and credit facilities will be sufficient to support our operating and investing needs for at least the next twelve months. Our future cash requirements could be affected by acquisitions that we may complete, repurchases of our common stock, or the payment of dividends in the future. Historically, we have financed our growth and liquidity needs through cash flow generation and a combination of debt financings and issuances of common stock. In the future, there are no assurances that we will continue to generate cash flow from operations or that additional financing alternatives will be available to us, if required, or if available, will be obtained on terms favorable to us.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by operating activities was $24.8 million, resulting from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $118.0 million, partially offset by an increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $93.2 million. The increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily caused by an increase in inventory for orders in 2019.

41

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, net cash provided by operating activities was $79.9 million, resulting from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $113.6 million, partially offset by an increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $33.7 million. The increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily caused by cash received for accounts receivable.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash used in investing activities was $106.6 million, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $62.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was caused by cash paid for acquisitions of $71.9 million, purchases of property, plant and equipment of $28.6 million and purchases of short-term investments of $6.4 million. Cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily caused by the maturities of short-term investments of $117.0 million, offset by the cash paid for acquisitions of $37.6 million and net purchases of property, plant and equipment of $17.4 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was $41.6 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $203.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to $200.6 million in proceeds from borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement and $5.8 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock, net. This was offset by $100.0 million of repurchases of common stock under our repurchase program, $28.5 million of borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement, $15.0 million repayment under the Note Purchase Agreement, $12.6 million used for the payment of dividends and $4.6 million repayment of other debt. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to repayment of $202.5 million of borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement, described below; and $12.5 million used for the payment of dividends. This was offset by $7.5 million in proceeds from borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement, described below; and $7.0 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock, net.

In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved the Repurchase Program which authorizes the repurchase of common stock in the amount of up to $300.0 million from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as management deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. We repurchased a total of 2,300,635 shares at an aggregate cost of $100.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. No repurchases occurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. The remaining authorization as of August 2, 2019 is $200.0 million and this Repurchase Program expires on May 13, 2021. We intend to fund any additional repurchases from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

The repurchased shares are reflected within Treasury stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2019.

Cash at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 totaled $282.5 million and $322.4 million, respectively, of which $248.6 million and $280.9 million, respectively, related to foreign cash and short-term investments, most significantly in the Netherlands and Switzerland.

At December 31, 2018, we recorded state income and foreign withholding taxes on the cash and liquid assets portion of the unremitted earnings and profits (E&P) of foreign subsidiaries expected to be repatriated from our foreign subsidiaries to the United States, except for amounts from certain subsidiaries, which we have asserted to be indefinitely reinvested. Specifically, we assert that a total of $1.328 billion of unremitted foreign earnings is indefinitely reinvested. This figure is comprised of $875.0 million in unremitted earnings, as well as $453.4 million of non-cash E&P in all other jurisdictions. If this E&P is ultimately distributed to the United States in the form of dividends or otherwise, we would likely be subject to additional withholding tax. We estimate the amount of unrecognized deferred withholding taxes on the undistributed E&P to be approximately $48.5 million at December 31, 2018.

We recorded tax expense associated with the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) provisions of the 2017 Tax Act as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Companies are allowed to adopt an accounting policy to either

42

recognize deferred taxes for GILTI or treat such as a tax cost in the year incurred. We have determined to treat such as a tax cost in the year incurred. As such, we did not record a deferred income tax expense or benefit related to the GILTI provisions of the 2017 Tax Act in the consolidated statement of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 or the year ended December 31, 2018.

As of June 30, 2019, we had approximately $43.2 million of net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce state taxable income; approximately $92.5 million of net operating losses available to reduce German federal income and trade taxes that are carried forward indefinitely; $5.8 million of other foreign net operating losses available that are carried forward indefinitely and $5.6 million of other foreign net operating losses that are expected to expire at various times in 2019. We also had U.S. state research and development tax credits of $8.6 million. Utilization of these credits and state net operating losses may be subject to annual limitations due to the ownership percentage change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions. In the event of a deemed change in control under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, an annual limitation on the utilization of net operating losses and credits may result in the expiration of all or a portion of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards.

At June 30, 2019, we had outstanding debt totaling $494.2 million, consisting of $205.0 million outstanding under the Note Purchase Agreement described below; $285.9 million outstanding under the 2015 Credit Agreement described below and $3.8 million under capital lease obligations and other loans. These amounts were offset by unamortized debt issuance costs under the Note Purchase Agreement of $0.5 million. At December 31, 2018, we had outstanding debt totaling $341.1 million, consisting of $220.0 million outstanding under the Note Purchase Agreement described below, $111.6 million outstanding under the revolving loan component of the 2015 Credit Agreement described below, $7.1 million under capital lease obligations and other loans and $2.9 million under other revolving loans. These amounts were offset by unamortized debt issuance costs under the Note Purchase Agreement of $0.5 million.

The following is a summary of the maximum commitments and the net amounts available to us under the 2015 Credit Agreement and other lines of credit with various financial institutions located primarily in Germany and Switzerland that are unsecured and typically due upon demand with interest payable monthly, at June 30, 2019 (dollars in millions):

	Weighted		Total Amount				Outstanding
	Average		Committed by		Outstanding		Letters of		Total Amount

On October 27, 2015, we entered into the 2015 Credit Agreement, and terminated the prior credit agreement.  The 2015 Credit Agreement provides a maximum commitment on the revolving credit line of $500.0 million and a maturity date of October 2020.  Borrowings under the revolving credit line accrue interest, at our option, at either (a) the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (iii) adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus margins ranging from 0.00% to 0.30% or (b) LIBOR, plus margins ranging from 0.90% to 1.30%. There is also a facility fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.20%.

Borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement are secured by guarantees from certain material subsidiaries, as defined in the 2015 Credit Agreement. The 2015 Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain certain financial ratios related to maximum leverage and minimum interest coverage. Specifically, our leverage ratio cannot exceed 3.5 and our interest coverage ratio cannot be less than 2.5.  In addition to the financial ratios, the 2015 Credit Agreement contains negative covenants, including among others, restrictions on liens, indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, asset sales, dividends and transactions with affiliates.  Failure to comply with any of these restrictions or covenants may result in an event of default on the 2015 Credit Agreement, which could permit acceleration of the debt and require us to prepay the debt before its scheduled due date.

43

As of June 30, 2019, we were in compliance with the covenants, as defined by both the 2015 Credit Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement.

In January 2012, we entered into the Note Purchase Agreement, with a group of accredited institutional investors. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement , we issued and sold $240.0 million of Senior Notes, which consist of the following:

● $20.0 million 3.16% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche A, due January 18, 2017;

● $15.0 million 3.74% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche B, due January 18, 2019;

● $105.0 million 4.31% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche C, due January 18, 2022; and

● $100.0 million 4.46% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche D, due January 18, 2024.

On January 18, 2017, the outstanding $20.0 million principal amount of Tranche A of the Senior Notes was repaid in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement. On January 18, 2019, the outstanding $15.0 million principal amount of Tranche B of the Senior Notes was repaid in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements of fair value measurements, including the consideration of costs and benefits.  This ASU is effective for us in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), which provides new guidance intended to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. This ASU is effective for us in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test. This ASU will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or statements of cash flows upon adoption.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are potentially exposed to market risks associated with changes in foreign currency, interest rates and commodity prices. We selectively use financial instruments to reduce these risks. All transactions related to risk management techniques are authorized and executed pursuant to our policies and procedures. Analytical techniques used to manage and monitor foreign currency and interest rate risk include market valuations and sensitivity analysis.

Impact of Foreign Currencies

We generate a substantial portion of our revenues in international markets, principally Germany and other countries in the European Union, Switzerland and Japan, which exposes our operations to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. Our costs related to sales in foreign currencies are largely denominated in the same respective currencies, reducing our transaction risk exposure.

44

However, for foreign currency denominated sales in certain regions, such as Japan, where we do not incur significant costs denominated in that foreign currency, we are more exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

For sales not denominated in U.S. Dollars, if there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. Dollars, it will require more of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. Dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases, if we price our products in the foreign currency, we will receive less in U.S. Dollars than we would have received before the rate increase went into effect. If we price our products in U.S. Dollars and competitors price their products in local currency, an increase in the relative strength of the U.S. Dollar could result in our prices not being competitive in a market where business is transacted in the local currency. For example, if the U.S. Dollar strengthened against the Japanese Yen, our Japanese-based competitors would have a greater pricing advantage over us.

Changes in foreign currency translation rates decreased our revenue by 3.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and increased our revenue by approximately 5.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries, where the functional currency is the local currency, are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the year. Adjustments resulting from financial statement translations are included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded net (losses) gains from currency translation adjustments of ($2.4) million and ($14.6) million, respectively. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are reported in interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Our foreign exchange (losses) gains, net were ($1.4) million and ($1.0) million, for the six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

From time to time, we have entered into foreign exchange contracts designed to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in foreign currency have on our cash flows related to purchases and sales denominated in foreign currencies. Under these arrangements, we agree to purchase a fixed amount of a foreign currency in exchange for a fixed amount of U.S. Dollars or other currencies on specified dates typically with maturities of less than twelve months with some agreements extending to longer periods. These transactions are recorded at fair value with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts aggregating $104.2 million and $102.4 million, respectively. We will continue to evaluate our currency risks and in the future may utilize foreign currency contracts more frequently.

Impact of Interest Rates

We regularly invest excess cash in short-term investments that are subject to changes in interest rates. We believe that the market risk arising from holding these financial instruments is minimal because of our policy of investing in short-term financial instruments issued by highly rated financial institutions.

Our exposure related to adverse movements in interest rates is derived primarily from outstanding floating rate debt instruments that are indexed to short-term market rates. We currently have a higher level of fixed rate debt, which limits our exposure to adverse movements in interest rates.

Impact of Commodity Prices

We are exposed to certain commodity risks associated with prices for various raw materials. The prices of copper and certain other raw materials, particularly niobium tin, used to manufacture superconductors have increased significantly over the last decade. Copper and niobium tin are the main components of low temperature superconductors and continued commodity price increases for copper and niobium as well as other raw materials may negatively affect our profitability. Periodically, we enter into commodity forward purchase contracts to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in the price of copper have on our sales of these products. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $7.3 million and $6.8 million, respectively. We will continue to evaluate our commodity risks and may utilize commodity forward purchase contracts more frequently in the future.

45

Inflation

We do not believe inflation had a material impact on our business or operating results during any of the periods presented.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) by others within our organization. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019. Based on this evaluation our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019 to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II      OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in lawsuits, claims, and proceedings, including, but not limited to, patent and commercial matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business. There are no such matters pending that we currently believe are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our business or to our consolidated financial statements.

In addition, we are subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which we operate. From time to time, we are the subject of governmental investigations often involving regulatory, marketing and other business practices. These governmental investigations may result in the commencement of civil and criminal proceedings, fines, penalties and administrative remedies which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity.

In August 2018, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) informed us that it was conducting an investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including Bruker Korea Co., Ltd (Bruker Korea). We cooperated fully with the KFTC and on June 16, 2019, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $20,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter.

ITEM IA. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

46
