DANAHER CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 29, 1995 (unaudited) NOTE 1. GENERAL The consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by Danaher Corporation (the Company) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the registrant, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at September 29, 1995 and December 31, 1994, its results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 29, 1995 and September 30, 1994, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 29, 1995 and September 30, 1994. NOTE 2. ACQUISITION OF JOSLYN CORPORATION The Company obtained control of Joslyn Corporation (Joslyn) as of September 1, 1995 when Joslyn's shareholders tendered approximately 75% of the outstanding shares to Danaher for $34 per share in cash. The remaining 25% is expected to be acquired in late October, 1995. Total consideration for Joslyn will be approximately $245 million. The fair value of assets to be acquired is approximately $345 million and approximately $100 million of liabilities will be assumed. The transaction is being accounted for as a step acquisition purchase, whereby assets and liabilities are reflected on a 75% fair value basis and a 25% historical cost basis until the acquisition is completed. Results of operations reflect a minority interest elimination. The purchase price allocations have been completed on a preliminary basis, subject to adjustment should new or additional facts about the business become known. The unaudited pro forma information for the periods set forth below give effect to the transaction as if it had occurred at the beginning of each period. The pro forma information is presented for information purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated as of that time. Both periods in 1994 include Joslyn's $35 million ($21 million after tax benefit or $0.36 per share) provision for environmental remediation associated with sites previously owned by Joslyn (unaudited, 000's omitted): Year Ended Nine Months Ended December 31, September 29, September 30, 1994 1995 1994 Net Sales $1,504,861 $1,326,297 $1,097,815 Net Earnings 59,696 79,471 37,619 Earnings per share $ 1.02 $1.32 $.65 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results of Operations Net revenues for the 1995 quarter and nine-month period were 23.9% and 25.6% higher compared to the corresponding periods in 1994. Customer demand was higher in all business segments other than the Transportation segment. Acquisitions accounted for approximately 20% and 18% of sales growth in the quarter and the nine-month period. Gross profit margin for the 1995 third quarter and nine-month period, as a percentage of sales, was approximately 28.8% and 28.3%, respectively. For the quarter, gross profit margin is flat between years, and it is up 0.7 percentage points over the nine-month period. Acquisitions make these periods somewhat noncomparable. However, on a mix-adjusted basis, margins have increased in all 1995 periods when compared to the 1994 performance due to productivity improvements combined with increased fixed cost leverage. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the 1995 third quarter as a percentage of sales were approximately 0.1 percentage points lower than the 1994 level. For the 1995 nine-month period, these costs as a percentage of sales are also lower principally due to restructuring and other cost reduction actions taken in earlier periods, and the fixed nature of certain costs. Interest expense for the 1995 quarter and nine-month period was 46.3% and 37.5% higher than the 1994 levels due to higher average debt levels, principally due to acquisitions made in 1994 and the Joslyn acquisition in September, 1995. The effective tax rate for both the third quarter and nine-month period is lower in 1995 than in 1994. This reflects principally the lesser impact of nondeductible goodwill amortization given higher pretax earnings. Liquidity and Capital Resources Total debt increased $110.7 million in the third quarter to $317.2 million. This reflects principally $165 million used to acquire the 75% of Joslyn Corporation stock tendered to September 1, 1995, as well as net earnings offset by an increase in net working capital. Increased accounts receivable were largely related to the consumer hand tool business which had just entered its peak selling season. The Company anticipates reductions in working capital levels in the fourth quarter. The Company's regular quarterly dividend of $.02 per share was declared for holders of record on September 28, 1995, payable on October 27, 1995. The Company's cash provided from operations, as well as credit facilities available, should provide sufficient available funds to meet anticipated working capital requirements, capital expenditures, dividends and scheduled debt repayments.
