“We are proud of our performance this quarter, as well as Teledyne’s long history of navigating challenging markets. Despite the strong U.S. dollar, supply chain constraints and inflation, we achieved record third quarter sales, earnings, operating margin and free cash flow,” said Robert Mehrabian, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Third quarter core sales growth was approximately 6.9% but was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation. Overall demand remained healthy with a total book to bill ratio of 1.06x due to particular strength in our longer-cycle government, marine and aviation businesses. We continue to execute our strategy, which has delivered long-term results regardless of economic conditions. That is, maintain a balanced and resilient mix of commercial and government businesses across a broad range of geographies and markets, continue to simplify operations to improve margins, and acquire and integrate complementary businesses to continuously compound earnings and cash flow. On the final point, we are pleased to have announced this morning the pending acquisition of ETM, which is uniquely complementary to both our defense electronics and healthcare imaging businesses.”
