The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements represent the consolidated accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial information presented herein does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any other interim period.

Amortization of certain technology-related intangible assets totaling $0.8 million and $2.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, were reclassified to selling, general and administrative expenses from amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets to conform to current year presentation.  This reclassification had no effect on previously reported net income or cash flows.

The Company has evaluated all subsequent events and determined that there are no material recognized or unrecognized subsequent events requiring disclosure.

At September 30, 2012, the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates, which are detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, have not changed.

2.              Acquisitions

On March 8, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of SkyScan N.V. (the “SkyScan business”), a privately owned company based in Belgium that provides advanced, high-resolution micro computed tomography systems for three-dimensional X-ray imaging in preclinical imaging applications and materials research markets.  The acquisition of the SkyScan business is being accounted for under the acquisition method.  The components and allocation of the consideration transferred in connection with the SkyScan business are as follows (in millions):

The Company’s allocation of the consideration transferred in connection with the acquisition of the SkyScan business is preliminary and will be finalized within the measurement period.  The final allocation of the purchase price may differ from the information presented in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The results of the SkyScan business have been included in the Scientific Instruments segment from the date of acquisition.  Pro forma financial information reflecting the acquisition of the SkyScan business has not been presented because the impact on revenues, net income and net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders is not material.

3.              Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s primary types of share-based compensation are in the form of stock options and restricted stock. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense as follows (in millions):

Compensation expense is amortized on a straight-line basis over the underlying vesting terms of the share-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 five years. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Assumptions regarding volatility, expected life, dividend yield and risk-free interest rates are required for the Black-Scholes model and are presented in the table below:

Bruker Corporation Stock Plan

In May 2010, the Bruker Corporation 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2010 Plan”) was approved by the Company’s stockholders. The 2010 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Plan allows a committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) to grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards. The Committee has the authority to determine which employees will receive the awards, the amount of the awards and other terms and conditions of any awards. Awards granted by the Committee typically vest over a period of three to five years.

Stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was as follows:

Restricted stock activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was as follows:

At September 30, 2012, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $11.6 million associated with outstanding stock option awards granted under the Company’s stock plans over the weighted average remaining service period of 2.2 years. In addition, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $4.5 million associated with outstanding restricted stock awards granted under the Company’s stock plans over the weighted average remaining service period of 3.6 years.

Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies Stock Plan

In October 2009, the Board of Directors of Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies, Inc. (“BEST”) adopted the Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies, Inc. 2009 Stock Option Plan (the “BEST Plan”). The BEST Plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,600,000 shares of BEST common stock in connection with awards under the BEST Plan. The BEST Plan allows a committee of the BEST Board of Directors to grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards. The Compensation Committee of the BEST Board of Directors has the authority to determine which employees will receive the awards, the amount of the awards and other terms and conditions of any awards. Awards granted pursuant to the BEST Plan typically vest over a period of three to five years.

There has been no activity in the BEST Plan during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, there were 800,000 options outstanding under the BEST Plan. The Company expects to recognize pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $0.8 million associated with outstanding stock option awards granted under the BEST Plan over the weighted average remaining service period of 1.9 years.

4.              Earnings Per Share

Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Bruker Corporation by the weighted average 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 based on the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted average shares outstanding (in millions, except per share amounts):

Stock options to purchase approximately 1.7 million shares and 0.2 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and approximately 0.7 million shares and 0.2 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

5.              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 table sets 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 September 30, 2012 (in millions):

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash equivalents, restricted cash, derivative instruments consisting of forward foreign exchange contracts, commodity contracts, derivatives embedded in certain purchase and delivery contracts, an interest rate swap, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to 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 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 $254 million at September 30, 2012 based on market and observable sources with similar maturity dates.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2012.

6.              Inventories

Inventories consisted of the following (in millions):

Finished goods include in-transit systems that have been shipped to the Company’s customers, but not yet installed and accepted by the customer. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, inventory-in-transit was $100.9 million and $116.8 million, respectively.

The Company reduces the carrying value of its demonstration inventories for differences between its cost and estimated net realizable value through a charge to cost of product revenue that is based on a number of factors, including the age of the unit, the physical condition of the unit and an assessment of technological obsolescence. Amounts recorded in cost of product revenue related to the write-down of demonstration units to net realizable value were $8.5 million and $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $22.6 million and $22.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

7.              Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The following table sets forth the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (in millions):

Goodwill is not amortized; instead, goodwill is tested for impairment on a reporting unit basis annually, or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances warrant. The Company performed its annual test for impairment as of December 31, 2011 and determined that goodwill and other intangible assets were not impaired at that time. The Company did not identify any indicators of impairment during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 that would warrant an interim test.

The following is a summary of other intangible assets subject to amortization (in millions):

For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded amortization expense of $5.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, related to intangible assets subject to amortization. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded amortization expense of $16.2 million and $13.1 million, respectively, related to intangible assets subject to amortization.

8.              Debt

The Company’s debt obligations consisted of the following (in millions):

In February 2008, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), with a syndicate of lenders that provided for a revolving credit line with a maximum commitment of $230 million and a term loan facility of $150 million. The outstanding principal under the term loan is payable in quarterly installments through December 2012. As of September 30, 2012, amounts outstanding under the term loan were $37.5 million.  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest, at the Company’s option, at either (i) the higher of the prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or (ii) adjusted LIBOR, plus margins ranging from 0.40% to 1.25% and a facility fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.20%.

In May 2011, the Company entered into an amendment to and restatement of the Credit Agreement, referred to as the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company accounted for the amendment as a modification under ASC No. 470, Debt (“ASC No. 470”). The Amended Credit Agreement increases the maximum commitment on the Company’s revolving credit line to $250 million and extends the maturity date to May 2016. Borrowings under the revolving credit line of the Amended 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% or (b) LIBOR, plus margins ranging from 0.80% to 1.65%. There is also a facility fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.35%. The Amended Credit Agreement had no impact on the maturity or pricing of the Company’s existing term loan. As of September 30, 2012, the weighted average interest rate of borrowings under the term loan of the Amended Credit Agreement was approximately 2.7%.

Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by guarantees from certain material subsidiaries and Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies, Inc. The Amended Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios related to maximum leverage and minimum interest coverage. Specifically, the Company’s leverage ratio cannot exceed 3.0 and the Company’s interest coverage ratio cannot be less than 3.0. In addition to the financial ratios, the Amended Credit Agreement restricts, among other things, the Company’s ability to do the following: make certain payments; incur additional debt; incur certain liens; make certain investments, including derivative agreements; merge, consolidate, sell or transfer all or substantially all of its assets; and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. Failure to comply with any of these restrictions or covenants may result in an event of default under the applicable debt instrument, which could permit acceleration of the debt under that instrument and require the Company to prepay that debt before its scheduled due date.

The following is a summary of the maximum commitments and net amounts available to the Company under revolving loans as of September 30, 2012 (in millions):

Other revolving loans are with various financial institutions located primarily in Germany, Switzerland and France. The Company’s other revolving lines of credit are typically due upon demand with interest payable monthly. Certain of these lines of credit are unsecured, while others are secured by the accounts receivable and inventory of the related subsidiary.

In January 2012, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with a group of accredited institutional investors. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold $240 million of senior notes, referred to as the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes issued by the Company in the private placement consist of the following:

· $20 million 3.16% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche A, due January 18, 2017;

· $15 million 3.74% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche B, due January 18, 2019;

· $105 million 4.31% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche C, due January 18, 2022; and

· $100 million 4.46% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche D, due January 18, 2024.

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, commencing July 18, 2012. 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, the Company may be required to prepay the Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

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 certain 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 payment events of defaults, 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, as of the end of any fiscal quarter to exceed 3.50 to 1.00, (ii) its interest coverage ratio as determined pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement as of the end of any fiscal quarter for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters to be less than 2.50 to 1 or (iii) priority debt at any time to exceed 25% of consolidated net worth, as determined pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement.

As of September 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Amended Credit Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement.

10.       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 September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $17.7 million and $19.3 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 30.7% and 49.0%, respectively. The income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $38.9 million and $38.7 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 37.5% and 41.6%, respectively.

The Company’s effective tax rate generally reflects the tax provision for non-U.S. entities only. A full valuation allowance is maintained against all U.S. deferred tax assets, including U.S. net operating losses and tax credits, until evidence exists that it is more likely than not that the loss carryforward and credit amounts will be utilized to offset U.S. taxable income. The Company’s tax rate may change over time as the amount or mix of income and taxes outside the U.S. changes. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 is affected by the impact of changes to the valuation allowance, and changes in the mix of the Company’s pre-tax income and losses among jurisdictions with varying statutory tax rates and credits.

The Company has unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $37.3 million as of September 30, 2012, of which $28.6 million, 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 September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, approximately $5.7 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions was included in other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes of $(0.1) million and $0.3 million were recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.7 million were recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The Company files returns in many foreign and state jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations and considers Germany, the United States and Switzerland to be its significant tax jurisdictions. The tax years 2003 to 2011 are open tax years in these major taxing jurisdictions. One of the Company’s Swiss entities is currently being audited for the tax years 2003-2006 and the audit is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2012. In addition, all of the Company’s significant German subsidiaries are under tax audit for the years 2003-2008 and these audits are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2012.

11.       Commitments and Contingencies

Legal

Lawsuits, claims and proceedings of a nature considered normal to its businesses may be pending from time to time against the Company. The Company believes the outcome of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, no accruals have been recorded for such potential contingencies.

Internal Investigation and Compliance Matters

As previously reported, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, assisted by independent outside counsel and an independent forensic consulting firm, conducted an internal investigation in response to anonymous communications received by the Company alleging improper conduct in connection with the China operations of the Company’s Bruker Optics subsidiary. The Audit Committee’s investigation, which began in 2011 and was completed in the first quarter of 2012, included a review of compliance by Bruker Optics and its employees in China and Hong Kong with the requirements of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) and other applicable laws and regulations.

The investigation found evidence indicating that payments were made that improperly benefited employees or agents of government-owned enterprises in China and Hong Kong. The investigation also found evidence that certain employees of Bruker Optics in China and Hong Kong failed to comply with the Company’s policies and standards of conduct. As a result, the Company took personnel actions, including the termination of certain individuals. The Company also terminated its business relationships with certain third party agents, implemented an enhanced FCPA compliance program, and strengthened the financial controls and oversight at its subsidiaries operating in China and Hong Kong. During 2011, Company management also initiated a review of the China operations of its other subsidiaries. This ongoing review is being conducted with the assistance of an independent audit firm.

The Company voluntarily contacted the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and the United States Department of Justice in August 2011 to advise both agencies of the internal investigation by the Audit Committee. In October 2011, the Company also reported the existence of the internal investigation to the Hong Kong Joint Financial Intelligence Unit and Independent Commission Against Corruption (“ICAC”). The Company has cooperated with the United States federal agencies and Hong Kong government authorities with respect to their inquiries and has provided documents and/or made witnesses available in response to requests from the governmental authorities reviewing this matter. The Company intends to continue to cooperate with these agencies in connection with their inquiries. At this time the Company cannot reasonably assess the timing or outcome of these matters or their effect, if any, on the Company’s business.

The FCPA and related statutes and regulations provide for potential monetary penalties as well as criminal and civil sanctions in connection with FCPA violations. It is possible that monetary penalties and other sanctions could be assessed by the Federal government in connection with these matters. Additionally, to the extent any payments are determined to be illegal by local government authorities, civil or criminal penalties may be assessed by such authorities and the Company’s ability to conduct business in that jurisdiction may be negatively impacted. At this time, the Company cannot predict the extent to which the SEC, the DOJ, the ICAC or any other governmental authorities will pursue administrative, civil injunctive or criminal proceedings, the imposition of fines or penalties or other remedies or sanctions. Given the current status of the inquiries from these agencies, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of possible loss that may result from any proceedings that may be commenced by the SEC, the DOJ, the ICAC or any other governmental authorities. Accordingly, no provision with respect to such matters has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Any adverse findings or other negative outcomes from any such proceedings could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future periods.

Letters of Credit and Guarantees

At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had bank guarantees of $119.2 million and $115.4 million, respectively, for its customer advances. These arrangements guarantee the refund of advance payments received from customers in the event merchandise is not delivered in compliance with the terms of the contract. Certain of these guarantees affect the availability of the Company’s lines of credit.

12.  Other Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under GAAP are included in other comprehensive income, 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 is composed primarily of foreign currency translation adjustments, changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans and changes in the fair value of derivatives that have been designated as cash flow hedges. The following is a summary of comprehensive income (in millions):

13.  Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests represent the minority shareholders’ proportionate share of the Company’s majority owned subsidiaries. The following table sets forth the changes in noncontrolling interests (in millions):

14.  Other Charges

The components of other charges were as follows (in millions):

15.  Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

The components of interest and other income (expense), net, were as follows (in millions):
