Note 15. Contingencies

The Company and its subsidiary, Indigo Systems Corporation (now known as FLIR Commercial Systems, Inc.), (together, the “FLIR Parties”), were named in a lawsuit filed by Raytheon Company (“Raytheon”) on March 2, 2007, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. On August 11, 2008, Raytheon was granted leave to file a second amended complaint. The complaint, as amended, asserted claims for tortious interference, patent infringement, trade secret misappropriation, unfair competition, breach of contract and fraudulent concealment. The FLIR Parties filed an answer to the second amended complaint and counterclaims on September 2, 2008, in which they denied all material allegations. On August 31, 2009, the court entered an order granting the FLIR Parties’ motion for summary judgment on Raytheon’s trade secret misappropriation claim based on the FLIR Parties’ statute of limitations defense. Raytheon abandoned all of its other claims except its claims relating to four patents (the “Patent Claims”). On August 11, 2010, the FLIR Parties and Raytheon entered into an agreement in principle to resolve the remaining Patent Claims. On October 27, 2010, the parties finalized the agreement which resulted in a payment of $3 million by the FLIR Parties to Raytheon. The agreement also entitles the FLIR Parties to certain license rights in the patents that were the subject of the Patent Claims. A final judgment was entered on January 7, 2011. The parties have appealed certain rulings of the district court to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter and is unable to estimate the amount or range of potential loss, if any, which might result if the outcome in this matter is unfavorable.

Note 15. Contingencies – (Continued)

 

On July 10, 2008, William J. Parrish and E. Timothy Fitzgibbons (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) filed an action against FLIR Systems, Inc., its affiliate Indigo Systems Corporation (now known as FLIR Commercial Systems, Inc.), Earl R. Lewis and James A. Fitzhenry (collectively, “Defendants”) in California Superior Court for the County of Santa Barbara asserting claims for negligent and intentional tortious interference with prospective economic relations (the “2008 Lawsuit”). The claims arose from a prior action in the same court in which then-defendants Parrish and Fitzgibbons prevailed. On November 20, 2009, Plaintiffs amended their complaint to add a malicious prosecution claim, as well as two additional claims for negligent and intentional tortious interference with prospective economic relations. On July 19, 2010, Plaintiffs further amended their complaint to name the Company’s former outside counsel in a prior action as a defendant. The claims against the former outside counsel were subsequently dismissed without prejudice. All tortious interference claims were dismissed as to all Defendants. On May 20, 2011, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive settlement agreement with the Plaintiffs. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company made a cash settlement payment of $39 million to Plaintiffs for dismissal with prejudice of all claims in the 2008 Lawsuit and a non-exclusive license for use of certain infrared technology.

Note 16. Income Taxes

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $33.3 million of net unrecognized tax benefits of which $25.3 million would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. The Company anticipates a portion of its net unrecognized tax benefits will be recognized within 12 months as the result of settlements or effective settlements with various tax authorities, the closure of certain audits and the lapse of the applicable statute of limitations.

The Company classifies interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $3.0 million of net accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions.

The Company currently has the following tax years open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions:

Note 17. Operating Segments and Related Information

Operating Segments

The Company has two business divisions: Commercial Systems and Government Systems.

Commercial Systems Division

The Commercial Systems division is focused on the design, manufacture, and marketing of instrument, sensor, and electronics solutions that facilitate improved situational awareness and environmental analytics for commercial customers. The division is comprised of two operating segments: Thermal Vision and Measurement and Raymarine. The Thermal Vision and Measurement segment provides advanced thermal imaging solutions for emerging commercial and industrial markets that enable people to see at night or through adverse weather conditions and to capture, measure, and analyze temperature data. The Raymarine segment provides electronics for the maritime market and is a leading global provider of fully integrated “stem to stern” networked electronic systems for boats of all sizes.

Government Systems Division

The Government Systems division designs, manufactures, and markets advanced imaging and detection systems for government markets where high performance is required. The division is comprised of three operating segments: Surveillance, Detection, and Integrated Systems. The Surveillance segment provides enhanced imaging and recognition solutions to a wide variety of military, law enforcement, public safety, and other government customers around the world for the protection of borders, troops, and public welfare. The Detection segment produces sensor instruments that detect and identify chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives (“CBRNE”) threats for military force protection, homeland security, and commercial applications. The Integrated Systems segment develops platform solutions for combating sophisticated security threats and incorporates multiple sensor systems in order to deliver actionable intelligence for wide area surveillance, intrusion detection, and facility security.

As of January 1, 2011, within the Commercial Systems division, the Company merged its former Thermography and Commercial Vision Systems operating segments into the Thermal Vision and Measurement operating segment. In addition, within the Government Systems division, the legacy Government Systems operating segment has been merged with certain business units of ICx to form the Surveillance operating segment. The remaining business units of ICx have been separated into the Detection and Integrated Systems operating segments. Accordingly, the Company has retrospectively reported the June 30, 2010 amounts on a comparable basis.

Raymarine was acquired in May 2010 and ICx was acquired in October 2010 and therefore, the operating results for the Raymarine, Detection and Integrated Systems operating segments are not comparable to the operating results for the prior periods described below.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”), including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part I, Item 2, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding future events and the future results of FLIR Systems, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“FLIR” or the “Company”) that are based on management’s current expectations, estimates, projections, and assumptions about the Company’s business. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “sees,” “estimates” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements due to numerous factors including, but not limited to, those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part I, Item 2, and elsewhere in this Report as well as those discussed from time to time in the Company’s other Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports. In addition, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions. Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Report or, in the case of any document incorporated by reference, the date of that document, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report, or for changes made to this document by wire services or Internet service providers. If we update or correct one or more forward-looking statements, investors and others should not conclude that we will make additional updates or corrections with respect to other forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations

The following discussion of operating results provides an overview of our operations by addressing key elements in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The “Segment Operating Results” section that follows describes the contributions of each of our business segments to our consolidated revenue and earnings from operations. Given the nature of our business, we believe revenue and earnings from operations (including operating margin percentage) are most relevant to an understanding of our performance at a segment level. Additionally, at the segment level we disclose backlog, which represents orders received for products or services for which a sales agreement is in place and delivery is expected within twelve months.

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased by 17.8 percent, from $331.1 million in the second quarter of 2010 to $390.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased 23.4 percent, from $618.4 million in the first six months of 2010 to $763.4 million in the first six months of 2011. The increase was primarily due to revenues reported by Raymarine Holdings, Ltd (“Raymarine”) and ICx Technologies, Inc. (“ICx”) which were acquired on May 14, 2010 and October 4, 2010, respectively. Excluding revenue from Raymarine and ICx, revenue for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 decreased by 1.0 percent and increased by 0.3 percent, respectively compared to the same periods in 2010. Revenue from our Thermal Vision and Measurement segment increased by 21.2 percent and 16.6 percent for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, which was offset by a decrease in revenue from our Surveillance segment of 15.7 percent and 10.7 percent for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010.

The timing of orders, scheduling of backlog and fluctuations in demand in various regions of the world can give rise to quarter-to-quarter and year-over-year fluctuations in the mix of revenue. Consequently, year-over-year comparisons for any given quarter may not be indicative of comparisons using longer time periods. While we currently expect an overall increase in total annual revenue for 2011 of approximately 17 percent partially attributable to revenue from businesses acquired in 2010, the mix of revenue between our business segments and within certain product categories in our business segments will vary from quarter to quarter during the year.

As a percentage of revenue, international sales were 49.8 percent and 49.0 percent for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 48.8 percent and 45.9 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The percentage of revenue from international sales will fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to normal variation in order activity across various regions. Management anticipates that revenue from international sales will continue to comprise a significant percentage of total revenue.

Gross profit. Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 was $204.5 million compared to $183.3 million for the same quarter last year. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $400.2 million compared to $348.7 million for the same period of 2010. Gross margin, defined as gross profit divided by revenue, decreased from 55.4 percent in the second quarter of 2010 to 52.5 percent in the second quarter of 2011, and from 56.4 percent in the first six months of 2010 to 52.4 percent in the first six months of 2011. The decrease in gross margin for both the three and six month periods in 2011 was primarily due to lower gross margins at Raymarine and ICx business units and the product mix in our Surveillance division, partially offset by the continued production efficiencies realized from increased volumes in our Thermal Vision and Measurement segment.

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2011 totaled $39.2 million, compared to $28.3 million in the second quarter of 2010. Research and development expenses for the first six months of 2011 and 2010 were $76.5 million and $53.1 million, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses was due to increased investment in new product development as well as the research and development activity conducted by the companies acquired; $7.5 million and $16.4 million of the increase in research and development expenses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, is related to the acquisitions. As a percentage of revenue, research and development expenses were 10.1 percent and 8.5 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 10.0 percent and 8.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $123.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to $65.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first six months of 2011 and 2010 were $205.4 million and $121.4 million, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the payment of a $39 million litigation settlement and increased spending in each of our business segments to drive future growth, including the operating expenses related to businesses acquired during 2010; $12.9 million and $32.1 million of the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, is related to the acquisitions. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue were 31.7 percent and 19.7 percent for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 26.9 percent and 19.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Excluding the litigation settlement and the operating expenses of the businesses acquired during 2010, selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 increase by 10.1 percent and 10.6 percent, respectively, over the same periods of 2010, and represented 21.9 percent and 21.7 percent of revenue for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

Interest expense. Interest expense for the second quarter and first six months of 2011 was $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, compared to $0.9 million and $2.1 million for the same periods of 2010. The decrease in interest expense in 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010 is primarily due to the conversions of our outstanding convertible notes in 2010.

Income taxes. The income tax provision of $13.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, represents an effective tax rate of 31.5 percent. We expect the annual effective tax rate for the full year of 2011 to be approximately 30 percent to 32 percent. The effective tax rate is lower than the US Federal tax rate of 35 percent because of foreign tax rates and the effect of federal, foreign and state tax credits.

Segment Operating Results

As of January 1, 2011, the Company merged the Thermography and Commercial Vision Systems operating segments into the Thermal Vision and Measurement operating segment. Raymarine was acquired on May 14, 2010, creating the Raymarine operating segment. Finally, ICx was acquired on October 4, 2010 and the ICx operating segment has since been separated into Surveillance, Detection and Integrated Systems operating segments. The Government Systems operating segment has been merged into the Surveillance operating segment.

Table of Contents

Revenue for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 increased by 21.2 percent and 16.6 percent, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2010 primarily due to increased unit deliveries from several of the segment’s product lines including Thermography, cores and components, and maritime product lines. The increase in backlog is primarily due to demand for recently introduced Thermography cameras that exceeded our planned production and for increased orders for most of our vision product lines.

Raymarine was acquired in May 2010 and, therefore, the operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not comparable to the operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010.

     32.8     39.2     33.6     39.4

Backlog, end of period

         254.3        375.0   

Revenue for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased by 15.7 percent and 10.7 percent, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2010, primarily due to decreases in revenue from US Government agencies, partially offset by revenue of approximately $5.4 million and $7.5 million, respectively, from ICx business units, which were acquired on October 4, 2010. The change in product mix and increased operating expenses of the segment resulted in the decline in earnings from operations and operating margin from 2010 to 2011. The decline in backlog from 2010 to 2011 was primarily due to the continued reduction in procurement activity by our US Government customers in 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $235.6 million compared to $193.1 million at December 31, 2010. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to cash provided from operations and cash proceeds from our stock-based compensation programs, partially offset by capital expenditures, repurchases of our common stock, dividends paid during the period and the cash litigation settlement as described in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $81.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily due to net earnings, adjusted for non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation, and net collections of our accounts receivable, partially offset by net increases in other working capital components and the cash litigation settlement.

Cash used in investing activities of $21.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily related to capital expenditures, including $9.1 million to acquire a building for our Raymarine operations in the United Kingdom.

On February 8, 2011, we signed a new Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association, JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. and other Lenders. The Credit Agreement provides for a $200 million, five-year revolving line of credit. We have the right, subject to certain conditions including approval of additional commitments by qualified lenders, to increase the line of credit by an additional $150 million until October 8, 2016. The Credit Agreement allows us and certain designated subsidiaries to borrow in US dollars, euro, Swedish Kronor, pound sterling and other agreed upon currencies. The Credit Agreement requires us to pay a commitment fee on the amount of unused credit at a rate, based on the Company’s leverage ratio, which ranges from 0.25 percent to 0.40 percent. The Credit Agreement contains two financial covenants that require the maintenance of certain leverage ratios of which we were in compliance at June 30, 2011. The five-year revolving line of credit available under the Credit Agreement is not secured by any of our assets.

At June 30, 2011, we had no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement and the commitment fee on the amount of unused credit was 0.25 percent. We had $14.5 million of letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2011, which reduced the total available credit under the Credit Agreement.

Our Sweden subsidiary has a 30 million Swedish Kronor (approximately $4.8 million) line of credit. At June 30, 2011, the Company had no amounts outstanding on this line of credit. The 30 million Swedish Kronor line of credit is secured primarily by accounts receivable and inventories of the Sweden subsidiary and is subject to automatic renewal on an annual basis.

Cash used in financing activities of $26.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily related to the payment of dividends and repurchase of approximately 713,000 shares of our common stock, partially offset by cash provided from our stock-based compensation plans.

On February 9, 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 20.0 million shares of our outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 2011, there were approximately 19.3 million shares still authorized for repurchase under this authorization, which expires on February 9, 2013.

Table of Contents

We believe that our existing cash combined with the cash we expect to generate from operating activities and our available credit facilities and financing available from other sources will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. We do not have any significant capital commitments for the current year nor are we aware of any significant events or conditions that are likely to have a material impact on our liquidity.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company reaffirms the critical accounting policies and our use of estimates as reported in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. As described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Form 10-K, the determination of fair value for stock-based compensation awards requires the use of management’s estimates and judgments.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2011, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of our business since December 31, 2010.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As of June 30, 2011, the Company has not experienced any changes in market risk exposure that would materially affect the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2011, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e). Based on the evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting at ICx was excluded from the evaluation for the period ended June 30, 2011.
