                      PerkinElmer Announces Q2 2006 Results


    BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 27, 2006--PerkinElmer, Inc. (NYSE:
PKI):

    --  EPS from Continuing Ops of $.21; Cash EPS of $.26, up 30%

    --  Completes Screening, Diagnostics and Service Acquisitions

    --  Accelerating Investment in Growth Platforms

    PerkinElmer, Inc. (NYSE: PKI), a global leader in Health Sciences
and Photonics markets, today reported GAAP earnings per share from
continuing operations of $.21 on revenue of $377.0 million for the
second quarter ended July 2, 2006. The second quarter 2006 results
include intangibles amortization of $7.8 million, or approximately
$.04 per share, and stock option expense of $2.1 million, or $.01 per
share. The Company announced earnings per share from continuing
operations excluding intangibles amortization, stock option expense
and a restructuring reversal of $.26, which represents an increase of
30% over the second quarter of 2005 and met the Thomson First Call(TM)
consensus earnings per share estimate.
    Second quarter 2006 revenue of $377.0 million increased 2% over
the second quarter of 2005. Revenue growth was 3% in Life and
Analytical Sciences and 1% in Optoelectronics compared to the same
period last year. Second quarter 2006 revenue from Health Sciences end
markets, representing 83% of total revenues for the quarter, increased
3% over the same period of 2005, while second quarter revenue from
Photonics end markets increased 1% over the same period.
    Recently, the Company completed three acquisitions in the priority
growth areas of screening, diagnostics and service. Within screening
and diagnostics, the Company acquired the business and associated
intellectual property of NTD Laboratories and Spectral Genomics. NTD
Laboratories is a leading provider of first-trimester prenatal risk
assessment, while Spectral Genomics is a leader in molecular
karyotyping technology used to research chromosomal abnormalities. NTD
Laboratories and Spectral Genomics provide additional technology and a
broader platform to drive the Company's high growth screening and
diagnostics strategies. Within service, the Company acquired Clinical
& Analytical Services Solutions(C&A), an asset management firm that
the Company expects will allow it to drive laboratory efficiency and
cost savings for customers through asset management and expert
maintenance.
    "We were pleased to deliver excellent cash EPS growth during the
quarter, with strong performance in our key growth platforms of
genetic screening, imaging and service," said Gregory L. Summe,
chairman and CEO of the Company. "We remain focused on driving growth
in these platforms as evidenced by our strategic acquisitions of NTD
Laboratories, Spectral Genomics and C&A as well as our increased
investment in R&D. We are committed to further increasing our
investment in these attractive growth areas," added Summe.
    GAAP operating profit during the second quarter of 2006 was $35.7
million, while GAAP operating margin for the same period was 9.5%.
Second quarter 2006 operating profit excluding intangibles
amortization of $7.8 million, stock option expense of $2.1 million and
a restructuring reversal of $.3 million was $45.3 million, or 12.0% as
a percentage of revenue for the quarter, representing an increase of
30 basis points compared to the same period of last year.
    The Company generated operating cash flows of $53.2 million in the
second quarter of 2006. Free cash flow for the second quarter of 2006,
defined as operating cash flow of $53.2 million less capital
expenditures of $12.2 million, was $41.0 million. This number includes
a tax payment of $4.6 million related to the gain on the divestiture
of Fluid Sciences. Free cash flow, net of divestiture taxes, was $45.6
million.

    Financial Overview by Reporting Segment

    Life and Analytical Sciences reported revenue of $278.5 million
for the second quarter of 2006, up 3% from revenue of $270.8 million
in the second quarter of 2005, driven primarily by revenue growth in
the Company's genetic screening and service businesses. Revenue growth
during the second quarter of 2006 excluding the effects of foreign
exchange and acquisitions was 2%.
    The segment's GAAP operating profit for the second quarter of 2006
was $25.3 million versus $15.7 million for the same period of 2005. As
a percentage of sales, GAAP operating profit for the second quarter of
2006 was up 330 basis points. Operating profit excluding intangibles
amortization, stock option expense and restructuring charges for the
second quarter of 2006 was $34.3 million, or 12.3% as a percentage of
revenue.
    Optoelectronics reported revenue of $98.5 million for the second
quarter of 2006, up 1% from revenue of $97.2 million in the second
quarter of 2005, driven primarily by revenue growth in imaging
partially offset by a decline in specialty lighting and sensors
revenue. There was no material revenue impact from foreign exchange.
    The segment's GAAP operating profit was $17.4 million for the
second quarter of 2006, versus $12.9 million for the comparable period
of 2005. As a percentage of sales, GAAP operating profit for the
second quarter of 2006 was 17.6%, an increase of 440 basis points. The
segment's operating profit excluding intangibles amortization, stock
option expense and a restructuring reversal for the second quarter of
2006 was $17.0 million, or 17.3% as a percentage of revenue.

    Financial Guidance

    For the third quarter of 2006, the Company projects GAAP earnings
per share from continuing operations of between $.22 and $.24.
Excluding the impact of intangibles amortization and stock option
expense, the Company projects earnings per share from continuing
operations of between $.27 and $.29 for the third quarter of 2006, an
increase of approximately 13% to 21% over the third quarter 2005. For
the full year 2006, the Company projects GAAP earnings per share from
continuing operations of between $.95 and $1.00, and earnings per
share excluding intangibles amortization and stock option expense, of
between $1.15 and $1.20 per share. This reflects approximately $.05
per share change in full year cash EPS guidance due to dilution from
acquisitions and increased growth investments in the second half of
2006.
    The Company will discuss its second quarter results in a
conference call on July 27, 2006, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (ET). To

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release
also contains non-GAAP financial measures of revenue, revenue growth,
operating profit, operating margin and earnings per share, in each
case excluding, where appropriate, the impact of foreign exchange, the
effects of acquisitions, intangibles amortization, restructuring
reversals, restructuring charges, stock option expense and tax
benefits.

    --  When we refer in this press release to "revenue growth," other
        than on a GAAP basis, we are excluding the effects of foreign
        exchange and acquisitions on GAAP revenue.

    --  When we refer in this press release to "operating profit,"
        other than on a GAAP basis, we are excluding the amortization
        of intangibles, stock option expense and restructuring charges
        or reversals from GAAP operating margin.

    --  When we refer in this press release to "operating margin,"
        other than on a GAAP basis, we are excluding the amortization
        of intangibles, stock option expense and restructuring charges
        or reversals from GAAP operating margin.

    --  When we refer to "earnings per share from continuing
        operations," other than on a GAAP basis, we are excluding the
        amortization of intangibles, stock option expense, a
        restructuring reversal and, for 2005 adjustments, tax benefit
        from GAAP earnings per share from continued operations.

    We exclude the impact of foreign exchange, the effects of
acquisitions, intangibles amortization, restructuring reversals,
restructuring charges, stock option expense and tax benefit in
calculating these non-GAAP measures because such items are outside of
our ongoing core business operations.
    We believe that the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures
in this press release helps investors to gain a meaningful
understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, and
can also help investors who wish to make comparisons between us and
other companies on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis, particularly with
respect to stock option expenses. Our management uses both GAAP
financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures to measure and
forecast our core operating performance and to compare that
performance to prior periods and to the performance of our
competitors. Both GAAP and non-GAAP measures are also used by
management in their financial and operating decision-making.
    This press release also contains non-GAAP financial measures of
free cash flow and free cash flow, net of divestiture taxes.

    --  We define free cash flow as our net cash provided by operating
        activities minus our capital expenditures.

    --  We define free cash flow, net of divestiture taxes, as free
        cash flow minus tax payments related to the gain on
        divestitures.

    We use free cash flow, and ratios based on this measure, to
conduct and evaluate our business and, specifically, to determine
incentive compensation, to allocate resources to debt repayment and
for cash investing and financing activities. We use free cash flow,
net of divestiture taxes, to compare our period-over-period results
and our results to those of competitors, without the impact of a
non-recurring tax payment. Therefore, we believe that these measures
may be similarly useful and informative to investors.
    The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are
not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of
operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP
financial measures included in this press release may be different
from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similar measures used by
other companies. Although certain non-GAAP financial measures used in
this release exclude the accounting treatment of stock option expense,
these non-GAAP measures should not be relied upon independently, as
they ignore the contribution to our operating results that is
generated by the incentive and compensation effects of the underlying
stock option programs. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial
measures used in this press release to the most directly comparable
GAAP financial measures are set forth in the text of, and the
accompanying exhibits to, this press release.
