A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures is provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Frank H. Laukien, Bruker’s President and CEO, commented: “Bruker continues to deliver excellent growth, with three consecutive quarters of double-digit organic revenue growth year-to-date in 2023. We anticipate high-single digit organic revenue growth in the fourth quarter of 2023, which puts us on track for three consecutive years of double-digit organic revenue growth in 2021-2023. This year, Bruker has demonstrated great resiliency in difficult market conditions, with industry-leading organic revenue growth of 13.9%, and non-GAAP EPS growth of 17.5% in the first nine months of 2023. Given our strong year-to-date financial results, solid backlog, and positive outlook for the fourth quarter, we are raising our organic revenue growth guidance for FY 2023 again, by 150 bps at the midpoint.”

Dr. Laukien continued: “We are very pleased with the early October acquisition of our new Cellular Analysis business, formerly known as PhenomeX. Our Cellular Analysis business is a leader in single-cell biology solutions, for advanced antibody and stable cell line development in support of biologics and cell & gene therapy in the biopharmaceutical industry, as well as for clinical oncology research in major cancer centers.”

Fiscal Year 2023 Outlook

For FY 2023, Bruker is increasing revenue guidance to a range of $2.88-$2.91 billion, up from prior outlook of $2.85-$2.90 billion. Bruker’s updated revenue guidance implies 14%-15% year-over-year reported revenue growth, up from prior guidance of 12.5%-14.5%, including contributions from:

  • Organic revenue growth of 11.5%-12.5%, up 150 basis points (bps) at the midpoint from prior outlook of 9.5%-11.5%,

  • M&A revenue growth contribution of ~2.5%, up from prior guidance of ~2%, largely due to expected fourth quarter 2023 revenue from the Cellular Analysis business acquired on October 2, 2023,

  • Constant currency (CC) revenue growth of 14%-15%, up from prior guidance of 11.5%-13.5%, and

  • Foreign currency translation impact on revenue now neutral, vs. prior guidance of a 1% tailwind.

Bruker now expects FY 2023 non-GAAP EPS of $2.48-$2.53, or 6%-8% year-over-year growth. Our updated non-GAAP EPS guidance reflects a $0.05 expected increase from the core business, more than offset by a ~$0.12 negative impact from the Cellular Analysis business in the fourth quarter of 2023, resulting overall in a $0.07 decrease from prior FY 2023 guidance. Bruker is rapidly right-sizing the Cellular Analysis cost structure, with the expectation that it will be slightly dilutive in FY 2024, and accretive to our non-GAAP EPS by FY 2026. Excluding Cellular Analysis, Bruker’s updated FY 2023 guidance implies 11%-13% non-GAAP EPS growth year-over-year, up from prior guidance of 9%-11%.

Bruker’s revenue and non-GAAP EPS guidance are based on foreign exchange rates as of September 30, 2023.

For the Company’s outlook for FY 2023 organic revenue growth, M&A revenue growth, constant currency revenue growth, and non-GAAP EPS, we are not able to provide without unreasonable effort the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, or reconciliations to such GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis. Please see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a description of items excluded from our expected non-GAAP EPS. Furthermore, we define “core” as excluding Bruker Cellular Analysis business, formerly known as PhenomeX.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP gross profit margin; non-GAAP operating income; non-GAAP operating profit; non-GAAP operating margin; non-GAAP SG&A expense; non-GAAP interest and other income (expense), net, non-GAAP profit before tax; non-GAAP tax rate; non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP measures exclude costs related to restructuring actions, acquisition and related integration expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and other non-operational costs.

We also may refer to organic revenue growth or decline, free cash flow or use, return on invested capital and non-GAAP earnings before interest taxes depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) which are also non-GAAP financial measures. We define the term organic revenue as GAAP revenue excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency translation rates and the effect of acquisitions and divestitures, and believe it is a useful measure to evaluate our continuing business. We define the term constant currency revenue as GAAP revenue excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency translation rates. 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 because it indicates the amount of cash generated after additions to property, plant, and equipment that is available for, among other things, acquisitions, investments in our business, repayment of debt and return of capital to shareholders. We define return on invested capital (ROIC) as non-GAAP operating profit after income tax divided by average total capital, which we define as debt plus equity minus cash and cash equivalents. We believe ROIC is an important measure of how effectively the Company invests its capital. We define non-GAAP EBITDA as non-GAAP net income adjusting out the effects of interest expense, net, non-GAAP income tax expense and GAAP depreciation and amortization, with purchased intangible amortization already adjusted out of non-GAAP net income. We believe non-GAAP EBITDA is an important means of comparing profitability of comparable companies.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, or 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. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance, however, we urge investors to review the reconciliation of these financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included in the accompanying tables, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. Specifically, management believes that the non-GAAP measures mentioned above provide relevant and useful information which is widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in our industry, as well as by our management, in assessing both consolidated and business unit performance.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our period-over-period operating performance because our management believes this provides a more comparable measure of our continuing business by adjusting 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 and forecasting future results. 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 certain non-GAAP measures and use this information for our planning and forecasting activities.

Additional information relating to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the tables accompanying this press release following our GAAP financial statements.

With respect to our outlook for 2023 non-GAAP organic revenue, non-GAAP M&A revenue, non-GAAP constant currency revenue, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP EPS and non-GAAP tax rate, we are not providing the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures or corresponding reconciliations to such GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis, because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty certain items that may affect such measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Our expected non-GAAP organic revenue, operating margin, tax rate and EPS ranges exclude primarily the future impact of restructuring actions, unusual gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses and purchase accounting fair value adjustments. These reconciling items are uncertain, depend on various factors outside our management’s control and could significantly impact, either individually or in the aggregate, our future period operating margins, EPS and tax rate calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

Any statements contained in this press release which do not describe historical facts may constitute 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, including statements regarding our fiscal year 2023 financial outlook, our outlook for reported revenue growth, organic revenue growth, M&A revenue growth contributions, constant currency revenue growth, foreign currency translation revenue impact, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP EPS and non-GAAP tax rate; management’s expectations for the impact of foreign currency and acquisitions, expectations regarding the benefits of our acquisition of PhenomeX Inc.; and for future financial and operational performance and business outlook; future economic conditions; the duration and impact of supply chain and geopolitical challenges; strategic investments; and statements found under the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this release. 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 COVID-19, the length and severity of any recession and the impact on global economic conditions, the impact of supply chain challenges, including inflationary pressures, the impact of geopolitical tensions and any sanctions, including any reduction in natural gas exports from Russia resulting from its ongoing conflict with Ukraine and resulting market disruptions, such as higher prices for and reduced availability of key metals used in our products, the conflict in Israel, Palestine and surrounding areas and the possible expansion of such conflicts and potential geopolitical consequences, the ongoing tensions between the United States and China, tariff and trade policy changes, and increasing potential of conflict involving countries in Asia that are critical to our supply chain operations, such as Taiwan and China, continued volatility in the capital markets, the impact of increased interest rates, the integration and assumption of liabilities of businesses we have acquired or may acquire in the future, including our recent acquisition of PhenomeX our restructuring and cost-control initiatives, changing technologies, product development and market acceptance of our products, the cost and pricing of our products, manufacturing and outsourcing, competition, dependence on collaborative partners, key suppliers and third party distributors, capital spending and government funding policies, changes in governmental regulations, intellectual property rights, litigation, exposure to foreign currency fluctuations, the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, our ability to service our debt obligations and fund our anticipated cash needs, the effect of a concentrated ownership of our common stock, loss of key personnel, payment of future dividends 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, 2022, as may be updated by our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements other than as required by law.
