BRUKER CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Description of Business

Bruker Corporation, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (Bruker or the Company), develops, manufactures and distributes high-performance scientific instruments and analytical and diagnostic solutions that enable its customers to explore life and materials at microscopic, molecular and cellular levels. Many of the Company’s products are used to detect, measure and visualize structural characteristics of chemical, biological and industrial material samples. The Company’s products address the rapidly evolving needs of a diverse array of customers in life science research, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, applied markets, cell biology, clinical research, microbiology, in-vitro diagnostics, nanotechnology and materials science research.

The Company has four operating segments, Bruker BioSpin Group, Bruker CALID Group, Bruker Scientific Instruments (BSI) Nano Segment and Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies (BEST). The Company has three reportable segments, BSI Life Science Segment, BSI NANO Segment and BEST.  

For financial reporting purposes, the Bruker BioSpin Group and Bruker CALID Group operating segments are aggregated into the reportable BSI Life Science Segment because each has similar economic characteristics, production processes, service offerings, types and classes of customers, methods of distribution and regulatory environments.

Bruker BioSpin — The Bruker BioSpin Group designs, manufactures and distributes enabling life science tools based on magnetic resonance technology. Bruker BioSpin Group’s revenues are generated by academic and government research customers, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and nonprofit laboratories, as well as chemical, food and beverage, clinical and other industrial companies.

Bruker CALID (Chemicals, Applied Markets, Life Science, In-Vitro Diagnostics, Detection)- The Bruker CALID Group designs, manufactures and distributes life science mass spectrometry and ion mobility spectrometry solutions, analytical and process analysis instruments and solutions based on infrared and Raman molecular spectroscopy technologies and radiological/nuclear detectors for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE) detection. Customers of the Bruker CALID Group include: academic institutions and medical schools; pharmaceutical, biotechnology and diagnostics companies; contract research organizations; nonprofit and  for-profit forensics laboratories; agriculture, food and beverage safety laboratories; environmental and clinical microbiology laboratories; hospitals and government departments and agencies.

The BSI NANO Segment designs, manufactures and distributes advanced X-ray instruments; atomic force microscopy instrumentation; advanced fluorescence optical microscopy instruments; analytical tools for electron microscopes and X-ray metrology; defect-detection equipment for semiconductor process control; handheld, portable and mobile X-ray fluorescence spectrometry instruments; and spark optical emission spectroscopy systems. Customers of the BSI NANO Segment include academic institutions, governmental customers, nanotechnology companies, semiconductor companies, raw material manufacturers, industrial companies, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies and other businesses involved in materials analysis.

The BEST reportable segment develops and manufactures superconducting and non-superconducting materials and devices for use in renewable energy, energy infrastructure, healthcare and "big science" research. The segment focuses on metallic low temperature superconductors for use in magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear magnetic resonance, fusion energy research and other applications.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements represent the consolidated accounts of the Company. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, the financial information presented herein does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any other interim period or the full year.

6

At June 30, 2020, the Company's significant accounting policies, which are detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, have not changed.

Risks & Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to its industry including, but not limited to, global economic conditions, government and academic funding levels, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, rapid technological change, changes in commodity prices, spending patterns of its customers, protection of its intellectual property, availability of key raw materials and components, compliance with existing and future regulation by government agencies and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, referred to as COVID-19, surfaced in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The virus has spread to over 200 countries and territories and continues to spread globally, including in the United States. The impact of this pandemic has been and will likely continue to be extensive in many aspects of society, which has resulted in and will likely continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world.

Impacts to the Company's business include temporary closures of many of the Company’s government and university customers and suppliers, disruptions or restrictions on employees' and customers' ability to travel, and delays in product installations to and from affected countries. In an effort to halt the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of countries, including the United States, implemented significant restrictions on travel, shelter in place or stay at home orders, and business closures. Certain jurisdictions, including many within the United States, have begun implementing policies with the goal of re-opening these markets only to return to restrictions in the face of increases in new COVID-19 cases. For example, a number of states, including California, Massachusetts and New Jersey where the Company has significant operations, had issued shelter in place or stay-at-home orders. Although these states have begun implementing phased re-opening policies, many of the Company’s employees in these areas continue to work remotely, and any re-openings may be delayed or pulled back if the virus continues to spread. In addition, a number of the Company's production facilities had to either temporarily close or operate on a reduced capacity. Most commercial activity in sales and marketing, and customer demonstrations and applications training, are either being conducted remotely or postponed. Customer purchasing departments are operating at reduced capacity, and many customers could delay or cut capital expenditures and operating budgets. These travel restrictions, business closures and operating reductions at Bruker, customers, distributors, and/or suppliers have and will continue to adversely impact the Company's operations worldwide, including the ability to manufacture, sell or distribute products, as well as cause temporary closures of foreign distributors, or the facilities of suppliers or customers. This disruption of the Company's employees, distributors, suppliers and customers has and will continue to impact the Company’s global sales and future operating results.

The Company is continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on commercial operations, including its continued impact on revenue for the remaining periods in 2020. However, the Company cannot at this time accurately predict what effects these conditions will ultimately have on its  operations due to uncertainties relating to the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, including the impact of any “second wave” of the virus, and the length or severity of the travel restrictions, business closures, and other safety and precautionary measures imposed by the governments of impacted countries. The pandemic has also adversely affected the economies and financial markets of many countries, which has affected and likely will continue to affect demand for the Company’s products and its operating results.

The preparation of the  unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis the Company evaluates estimates, judgments and methodologies. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that they believe are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity and the amount of revenues and expenses. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will directly or indirectly impact the business, results of operations and financial condition, including sales, expenses, reserves and allowances, manufacturing, research and development costs and employee-related amounts, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain or treat it, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international customers and markets. The Company has made estimates of the impact of COVID-19 within the financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods. Actual results may differ from management's estimates if these results differ from historical experience.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to a promise to transfer a good or service that is fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period.  As of June 30, 2020, remaining performance obligations were approximately $1,886.2 million. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 57.4% of the remaining performance obligations over the next twelve months and the remaining performance obligations primarily within one to three years.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and deferred revenue, customer deposits and billings in excess of revenue recognized (contract liabilities) on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Contract assets—Most of the Company’s long-term contracts are billed as work progresses in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of certain milestones. Billing often occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Contract assets are generally classified as other current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The balance of contract assets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $46.6 million and $43.9 million, respectively.  

8

Contract liabilities—The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance, resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the timing of when revenue recognition is expected.  As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the contract liabilities were $352.1 million and $312.5 million,  respectively. The increase in the contract liability balance during the six month period ended June 30, 2020 is primarily the result of a delay in instrument installations due to the customer facility closures or reduced operations as a result of COVID-19. Approximately $119.2 million of the contract liability balance on December 31, 2019 was recognized as revenue during the six month period ended June 30, 2020.

3.    Acquisitions

The impact of all acquisitions, individually and collectively, on revenues, net income and total assets was not material. Pro forma financial information reflecting all acquisitions has not been presented because the impact, individually and collectively, on revenues, net income and total assets is not material. Amounts allocated to goodwill that are attributable to expected synergies are not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

2020

Hain

On October 15, 2018, Bruker acquired an 80% interest in Hain Lifescience GmbH (“Hain”) for a purchase price of Euro 66 million (approximately $76.4 million) with options to acquire the remaining 20%. Hain is an infectious disease specialist with a broad range of molecular diagnostics solutions for the detection of microbial and viral pathogens, as well as for molecular antibiotic resistance testing. Hain is located in Nehren, Germany and was integrated into the BSI Life Science Segment. On January 31, 2020, the Company acquired the remaining 20% interest in Hain for a purchase price of EUR 20 million (approximately $22.2 million). The carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was accreted to the redemption value of EUR 20 million through retained earnings and then reclassified to additional paid in capital.

In addition to the Hain acquisition noted above, in the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company completed one acquisition that complemented the Company’s existing product offerings. The following table reflects the consideration transferred and the respective reportable segment for the acquisition (in millions):

In addition to the awards above, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense within other charges, net of $0.3 million and $0.6 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, related to the 2018 acquisition of Mestrelab Research, S.L. (Mestrelab).

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the underlying requisite service period of the stock-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 four years. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. There were no stock options awarded during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

At June 30, 2020, the Company expects to recognize pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $1.9 million associated with outstanding stock option awards granted under the Company's stock plans over the weighted average remaining service period of 1.0 years. The Company also expects to recognize additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $18.1 million associated with outstanding restricted stock units granted under the 2016 Plan over the weighted average remaining service period of 2.1 years.

5.    Earnings Per Share

Net income per common share attributable to Bruker Corporation shareholders is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Bruker Corporation, adjusted to reflect changes in the redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, by the weighted-average number of 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, reduced by the number of shares which are assumed to be purchased by the Company under the treasury stock method. In January 2020, the Company acquired the remaining interest in our redeemable noncontrolling interest. There was no redemption value adjustment of the redeemable noncontrolling interest for the six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and net income per common share attributable to Bruker shareholders (dollars in millions, except per share amounts):

Approximately 0.1 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in each of the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

6.    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.

12

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 tables set forth the Company's financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and present them within the fair value hierarchy using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in millions):

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash, derivative instruments consisting of forward foreign exchange contracts, cross-currency interest rate swap agreements, commodity contracts, derivatives embedded in certain purchase and sale contracts, derivatives embedded within noncontrolling interests, accounts receivable, accounts payable, contingent consideration and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of the Company's cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash, accounts receivable, borrowings under a revolving credit agreement and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. The Company's long-term debt consists principally of a note purchase agreement entered into in 2012 and a revolving credit agreement, long term loan agreement and note purchase agreement entered into in 2019.

The Company has evaluated the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and management’s estimates. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. 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 six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.

The fair value of the long-term fixed interest rate debt, which has been classified as Level 2, was $510.7 million and $517.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, based on market and observable sources with similar maturity dates.

Excluded from the table above are restricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments related to time and call deposits. The Company has a program to enter into money markets and time deposits with varying maturity dates ranging from one to twelve months, as well as call deposits for which the Company has the ability to redeem the invested amounts generally over a period of 95 days. The Company has classified these investments within cash and cash equivalents or short-term investments within the consolidated balance sheets based on call and maturity dates and these are not subject to fair value measurement. The following tables set forth the balances of restricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in millions):

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its short-term investments to determine if there have been any events that could create an impairment.  None were noted for the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.

Contingent consideration recorded within other current liabilities represents the estimated fair value of future payments to the former shareholders as part of certain acquisitions. These contingent considerations are primarily based on the applicable acquired company achieving annual revenue and gross margin targets in certain years as specified in the relevant purchase and sale agreement. The Company initially values the contingent consideration on acquisition date by using a Monte Carlo simulation or an income approach method. The Monte Carlo method models future revenue and costs of goods sold projections and discounts the average results to present value.  The income approach method involves calculating the earnout payment based on the forecasted cash flows, adjusting the future earnout payment for the risk of reaching the projected financials, and then discounting the future payments to present value by the counterparty risk. The counterparty risk considers the risk of the buyer having the cash to make the earnout payments and is commensurate with a cost of debt over an appropriate term.

As part of the Mestrelab acquisition, the Company entered into an agreement with the noncontrolling interest holders that provides the Company with the right to purchase, and the noncontrolling interest holders with the right to sell, the remaining 49% of Mestrelab for cash at a contractually defined redemption value. These rights (an embedded derivative) are exercisable beginning in 2022 and can be accelerated, at a discounted redemption value, upon certain events related to post combination services. As the option is tied to continued employment, the Company classified the hybrid instrument (noncontrolling interest with an embedded derivative) as a long-term liability on the consolidated balance sheets. Subsequent to the acquisition, the carrying value of the hybrid instrument is remeasured to fair value with changes recorded to stock-based compensation expense in proportion to the requisite service period vested. The hybrid instrument is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

As a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company performed an interim impairment assessment of the goodwill balance as of March 31, 2020 using a combination of both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Based on this interim assessment, the Company concluded the fair values of each of the reporting units were significantly greater than their carrying amounts, and therefore, no impairment is required. The Company performed an assessment as of June 30, 2020 and no triggering event was identified. The goodwill assessment was based on management's estimates and assumptions, certain of which are dependent on external factors. To the extent actual results differ materially from these estimates, and the risks presented by COVID-19 and the current economic environment persists to negatively affect the Company’s operations in subsequent periods, further interim impairment assessments could be required, which could result in an impairment of goodwill.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of all debt agreements.

16

As of June 30, 2020, the Company has entered into several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million of U.S. to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $355.0 million of U.S. to Euro to hedge the variability in the movement of foreign currency exchange rates on portions of our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net asset investments. These agreements qualify for hedge accounting and accordingly the change in fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income as part of foreign currency translation adjustments and remain in accumulated comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Bruker Corporation in shareholders' equity until the sale or substantial liquidation of the foreign operation. The difference between the interest rate received and paid under the interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements is recorded in interest and other income (expenses) in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. As a result of entering into these agreements, the Company has lowered net interest expense by $1.8 million and $4.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The gains (losses) related to hedges of net asset investments in international operations that were recorded within the cumulative translational adjustment section of other comprehensive income were $(11.2) million and $(0.3) million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The Company did not have any cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company presents the cross-currency swap periodic settlements in investing activities and the interest rate swap periodic settlements in operating activities in the statement of cash flows.

10.  Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Interest Rate Risks

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to outstanding variable rate debt and adverse movements in the related market rates. Typically, the most significant component of the Company’s interest rate risk relates to amounts outstanding under the 2019 Credit Agreement and the 2019 Term Loan.

Commodity Price Risk Management

The Company has arrangements with certain customers under which it has a firm commitment to deliver copper based superconductor wire at a fixed price. In order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in the price of copper have on the Company’s sales of these commodities, the Company enters into commodity hedge contracts. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $11.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The changes in the fair value of these commodity contracts are recorded within interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss).

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk Management

The Company generates a substantial portion of its revenues and expenses in international markets, principally Germany, other countries in the European Union and Switzerland, which subjects its operations to the exposure of exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. The Company periodically enters into forward currency contracts in order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in currency translation have on its monetary transactions. Under these arrangements, the Company typically agrees to purchase a fixed amount of a foreign currency in exchange for a fixed amount of U.S. Dollars or other currencies on specified dates with maturities of less than twelve months, with some agreements extending to longer periods. These transactions do not qualify for hedge accounting and, accordingly, the instrument is recorded at fair value with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company had notional amounts outstanding under forward currency contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements as of (dollars in millions):

In addition, the Company periodically enters into purchase and sales contracts denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the parties to the transaction. The Company accounts for these transactions separately valuing the “embedded derivative” component of these contracts. The contracts, denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the transacting parties, amounted to $11.7 million for the delivery of products and $5.8 million for the purchase of products at June 30, 2020 and $12.3 million for the delivery of products and $6.1 million for the purchase of products at December 31, 2019. The changes in the fair value of these embedded derivatives are recorded in interest and other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss).

11.  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 June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $7.1 million and $10.6 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 22.7% and 22.3%, respectively. The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $10.0 million and $18.3 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 22.3% and 21.3%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate may change over time as the amount or mix of income and tax changes among the jurisdictions in which the Company is subject to tax.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding penalties and interest, of approximately $18.0 million and $15.9 million, respectively, of which, 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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, approximately $1.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions was included in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Penalties and interest of $0.1 million were recorded in the provision for income taxes for unrecognized tax benefits during both the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Penalties and interest of $0.3 million and $0.1 million were recorded in the provision for income taxes for unrecognized tax benefits during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

19

The Company files tax returns in the United States, which includes federal, state and local jurisdictions, and many foreign jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The Company considers Germany, the United States and Switzerland to be its significant tax jurisdictions. The majority of the Company’s earnings are derived in Germany and Switzerland.  Accounting for the various federal and local taxing authorities, the statutory rates for 2019 are approximately 30.0% and 15.0% for Germany and Switzerland, respectively. The mix of earnings in those two jurisdictions resulted in an increase of 2.3% from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company has not been a party to any material tax holiday agreements. The tax years 2013 to 2019 are open to examination in Germany and Switzerland. Tax years 2013 to 2019 remain open for examination in the United States.

On March 27, 2020 the House passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (The CARES Act), also known as the Third COVID-19 Supplemental Relief bill, and the president of the United States signed the legislation into law. The Company does not expect the provisions of the legislation to have a significant impact on the effective tax rate or the income tax payable and deferred income tax positions of the Company.

12.  Commitments and Contingencies

In accordance with ASC Topic 450, Contingencies, the Company accrues anticipated costs of settlement, damages or other costs to the extent specific losses are probable and estimable.

Letters of Credit and Guarantees

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had bank guarantees of $132.3 million and $143.2 million, respectively, related primarily to customer advances. These arrangements guarantee the refund of advance payments received from customers in the event that the merchandise is not delivered or warranty obligations are not fulfilled in compliance with the terms of the contract. These guarantees affect the availability of the Company’s lines of credit.

Litigation and Related Contingencies

Lawsuits, claims and proceedings of a nature considered normal to its businesses may be pending from time to time against the Company. Third parties might allege that the Company or its collaborators are infringing their patent rights or that the Company is otherwise violating their intellectual property rights. Loss contingency provisions are recorded if the potential loss from any claim, asserted or unasserted, or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated or a range of loss can be determined. These accruals represent management's best estimate of probable loss. Disclosure is also provided when it is reasonably possible that a loss will be incurred or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded provision. The Company believes the outcome of pending proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

On September 25, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, a subsidiary of Carl Zeiss AG (Zeiss), sued Luxendo GmbH (Luxendo), a subsidiary of Bruker Corporation, for infringement of a recently registered German utility model patent licensed to Zeiss pertaining to one specific Luxendo product category.  The Company intends to vigorously defend against this claim.

On September 23, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Micromass UK Limited (Micromass), a subsidiary of Waters Corporation, sued Bruker Corporation, as well as its affiliate, Bruker Daltonik GmbH, for infringement of a European patent pertaining to our timsTOF product line. On March 6, 2020, Bruker was notified that Micromass has expanded its complaint in Düsseldorf and now asserts another recently granted European patent in Germany. The Company intends to vigorously defend against these claims.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies.

20

Governmental Investigations

The Company is subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which it operates. From time to time, the Company is the subject of governmental investigations often involving regulatory, marketing and other business practices. These governmental investigations may result in the commencement of civil and criminal proceedings, fines, penalties and administrative remedies which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity.

In August 2018, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) informed the Company that it was conducting an investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including Bruker Korea Co., Ltd (Bruker Korea).  The Company cooperated fully with the KFTC and on June 16, 2019, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $20,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter. As a result of the KFTC’s decision, the Korea Public Procurement Service (PPS) imposed a three month suspension on Bruker Korea’s ability to bid for or conduct sales to Korean government entities which ended on March 27, 2020. Sales to Korean government entities were less than 3% of the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In late August 2019, the KFTC informed the Company that it was conducting a separate investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including five public tenders involving Bruker Korea during 2015.  The Company cooperated fully with the KFTC and on July 8, 2020, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $11,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no material accruals have been recorded for potential contingencies related to these matters.

13.  Shareholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

In May 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan (the Repurchase Program) authorizing repurchases of common stock in the amount of up to $300.0 million from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as management deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. The Company has repurchased a total of 4,537,386 shares at an aggregate cost of $192.3 million under the Repurchase Program. The Company repurchased a total of 1,214,282 shares at an aggregate cost of $50.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company repurchased a total of 2,300,635 shares at an aggregate cost of $100.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Any future repurchases will be funded from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The remaining authorization as of August 3, 2020 is $107.7 million and this Repurchase Program expires on May 13, 2021.

Cash Dividends on Shares of Common Stock

On February 22, 2016, the Company announced the establishment of a dividend policy and the declaration by its Board of Directors of an initial quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.04 per share of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock. Under the dividend policy, the Company will target a cash dividend to the Company's shareholders in the amount of $0.16 per share per annum, payable in equal quarterly installments.

Subsequent dividend declarations and the establishment of record and payment dates for such future dividend payments, if any, are subject to the Board of Directors' continuing determination that the dividend policy is in the best interests of the Company's shareholders. The dividend policy may be suspended or cancelled at the discretion of the Board of Directors at any time.

21

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in other comprehensive income (loss), 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 (loss) is composed primarily of foreign currency translation adjustments and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans.

16.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"), which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. These transactions include: contract modifications, hedging relationships, and sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. Entities may apply the provisions of the new standard as of the beginning of the reporting period when the election is made (i.e. as early as the first quarter 2020). Unlike other topics, the provisions of this update are only available until December 31, 2022, when the reference rate replacement activity is expected to have completed. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and has yet to elect an adoption date.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01- Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815 (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force), which clarifies the interaction of the accounting for certain equity securities, equity method investments, and certain forward contracts and purchased options. The guidance clarifies that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying measurement principles for certain equity securities immediately before applying or discontinuing the equity method. The Company adopted this guidance using a prospective method. The assessment of the adoption of this ASU is in process and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions within the current guidance including the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The amendment also improves consistent application by clarifying and amending existing guidance related to aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The assessment of the adoption of this ASU is in process and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements of fair  value measurements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. This ASU is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test. This ASU will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

24

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance modifies the recognition of credit losses related to financial assets, such as debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, and other financial assets that have the contractual right to receive cash. Current guidance requires the recognition of a credit loss when it is considered probable that a loss event has occurred. The new guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based upon relevant information, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the asset. As such, expected credit losses may be recognized sooner under the new guidance due to the broader range of information that will be required to determine credit loss estimates. The new guidance also amends the current other- than-temporary impairment model used for debt securities classified as available-for-sale. When the fair value of an available- for-sale debt security is below its amortized cost, the new guidance requires the total unrealized loss to be bifurcated into its credit and non-credit components. Any expected credit losses or subsequent recoveries will be recognized in earnings and any changes not considered credit related will continue to be recognized within other comprehensive income (loss). This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. The new standard impacts the Company's accounts receivables and off balance sheet credit exposures. The new standard did not have an impact on the Company’s  results of operations and cash flows.

17.  Subsequent Event

Due to the impact of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, on Bruker’s business and the global economy, the Company continues to maintain certain temporary cost control and cost reduction measures. These temporary measures include short-time work for certain of the Company’s European operations, a hiring freeze and curtailment of non-strategic discretionary spending. The Company plans to continue certain cost control and cost reduction measures in the third quarter of 2020, which we expect to result in continued cost savings in the third quarter of 2020, though not at the same level as we achieved for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Statements contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which express that we “believe", "anticipate", "plan", "expect", "seek”, “may”, “will”, “intend”, “estimate”, “should” and similar expressions are intended to identify 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. Any forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations but are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the impact of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, on our business and operations, the global economy, our cost cutting measures and their impact, our intentions regarding our intellectual property, the impact of government contracts and government regulation, the impact of our material weaknesses in internal controls and the timing to remedy them, our working capital requirements and sufficiency of cash, our competition, the seasonality of our business, the sufficiency of our facilities, our employee relations, the impact of legal or intellectual property proceedings, the impact of changes to tax and accounting rules and changes in law, our anticipated tax rate, our expectations regarding cash dividends, share repurchases, interest expense, interest rate swap agreements, expenses and capital expenditures, the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and changes in commodity prices, the impact of our restructuring initiatives, our expectations regarding backlog and revenue 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, 2019 and subsequent filings. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements other than as required by law.

Although our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), we believe describing revenue and expenses, excluding the effects of foreign currency, acquisitions and divestitures, as well as certain other charges, net,  provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. Specifically, management believes that organic revenue and free cash flow, both non-GAAP financial measures, as well as non-GAAP gross profit margin and non-GAAP operating  margin, provide relevant and useful information that is widely used by equity analysts, investors and competitors in our industry, as well as by our management, in assessing both consolidated and business unit performance. We define the term organic revenue as GAAP revenue excluding the effect of foreign currency translation changes and the effect of acquisitions and divestitures. We define the term non-GAAP gross profit margin as GAAP gross profit margin with certain GAAP measures excluded and non-GAAP operating margin as GAAP operating margin with certain GAAP measures excluded. These non-GAAP measures exclude costs related to restructuring actions, acquisition and related integration expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, costs associated with our global information technology transition initiative, and other non-operational costs that are infrequent or non-recurring in nature and we believe these are useful measures to evaluate our continuing business.

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 as it indicates the amount of cash generated after additions to property, plant, and equipment which is available for, among other things, investments in our business, acquisitions, share repurchases, dividends and repayment of debt. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our period-over-period operating performance because our management believes they provide more comparable measures of our continuing business because they adjust 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. 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 such non-GAAP measures and use this information  for our planning and forecasting activities. 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.

OVERVIEW

We are a developer, manufacturer and distributor of high-performance scientific instruments and analytical and diagnostic solutions that enable our customers to explore life and materials at microscopic, molecular and cellular levels. Our corporate headquarters are located in Billerica, Massachusetts. We maintain major technical and manufacturing centers in Europe, North America and Southeast Asia, and we have sales offices located throughout the world. Bruker is organized into three reportable segments: the BSI Life Science Segment (comprised of the Bruker BioSpin Group and the Bruker CALID Group), the BSI NANO Segment and the Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies (BEST) Segment.

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $65.6 million, or 13.4%, to $424.6 million, compared to $490.2 million for the comparable period in 2019. Included in revenue was an increase of approximately $1.7 million from acquisitions and a decrease of $5.1 million from foreign currency translation. Excluding the effects of foreign currency translation and our recent acquisitions, our organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, decreased by $62.2 million, or 12.7%. The decline in revenue was primarily related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers’ as well as certain of our operations and lower global instrumentation demand due to the ongoing pandemic.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $103.0 million, or 10.8%, to $848.6 million, compared to $951.6 million for the comparable period in 2019. Included in revenue was an increase of approximately $6.0 million from acquisitions and a decrease of $10.6 million from foreign currency translation. Excluding the effects of foreign currency translation and our recent acquisitions, our organic revenue, a non-GAAP measure, decreased by $98.4 million, or 10.3%. The decline in revenue was primarily related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers’ as well as certain of our operations and lower global instrumentation demand due to the ongoing pandemic.

Our gross profit margin decreased to 43.9% during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 47.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in gross margin was a result of lower volume, factory and operating inefficiencies due to disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.

Our gross profit margin decreased to 44.6% during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 46.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in gross margin was a result of lower volume, unfavorable mix, factory and operating inefficiencies due to disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.

Our operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $37.9 million, resulting in an operating margin of 8.9%, compared to operating income of $53.5 million, and an operating margin of 10.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Included in operating income were various charges for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs totaling $11.1 million and $20.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Excluding these charges, our non-GAAP operating margin for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was 11.5% and 15.0%, respectively. The decrease in GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin was due to lower revenue and gross margins due to COVID-19 related disruptions to our customers’ and our own operations, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.  

Our operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $54.3 million, resulting in an operating margin of 6.4%, compared to operating income of $95.4 million, and an operating margin of 10.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Included in operating income were various charges for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs totaling $26.9 million and $40.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Excluding these charges, our non-GAAP operating margin for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was 9.6% and 14.3%, respectively. The decrease in GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin was due to lower revenue and gross margins due to COVID-19 related disruptions to our customers and our own operations, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.  

Our income tax provision in the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $7.1 million and $10.6 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 22.7% and 22.3%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the jurisdictional profit mix and impact of discrete items in the period.

Our income tax provision in the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $10.0 million and $18.3 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 22.3% and 21.3%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the jurisdictional profit mix and impact of an unfavorable discrete item in the period.

27

Diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 were $0.16, a decrease of $0.07 compared to $0.23 per share in the three month period ended June 30, 2019. Diluted earnings per share for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 were $0.22, a decrease of $0.21 compared to $0.43 per share in the six month period ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in net income and earnings per diluted share was primarily driven by lower revenues associated with COVID-19 disruptions and lower academic and industrial demand, partially offset by our cost cutting and cost reduction measures.

Operating cash flow for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 was a source of cash of $46.8 million. Our free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, was ($4.0) million, calculated as follows (dollars in millions):

Purchases of property, plant and equipment included an increase of approximately $22.0 million related to production facilities for productivity gains and expansion.

On December 11, 2019, we entered into (1) a new revolving credit agreement to establish a new revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $600 million; (2) a term loan agreement to establish a new term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $300 million; and (3) a note purchase agreement to issue and sell CHF 297 million aggregate principal amount of 1.01% senior notes due December 11, 2029. Floating interest rates under the term loan were simultaneously fixed through cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements into Euro ($150 million) and Swiss Franc ($150 million) rates carrying average effective interest rates of 0.94% and hedge our net investment in our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net assets. The new revolving credit agreement replaced our $500 million five-year revolving credit agreement established on October 27, 2015, that was terminated on December 11, 2019. In addition, we designated our CHF 297 million senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our Swiss Franc denominated net assets. Proceeds from this financing were used to repay the outstanding borrowings under our prior 2015 revolving credit facility and we intend to use the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes and to support corporate strategic objectives. During December 2019, we entered into U.S. Dollar to Euro cross-currency swaps on our existing 2012 private placement notes of $105 million 4.31% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche C, due January 18, 2022, and the existing $100 million 4.46% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche D, due January 18, 2024, resulting in an average effective interest rate of 2.25% on these instruments. The cross-currency swaps hedge our net investment in our Euro denominated net assets. As a result of entering into these interest rate and cross currency swap agreements, we reduced our interest expense by $1.8 million and $4.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively. We anticipate these swap agreements will lower net interest expense in future years.

We can experience quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in our operating results as a result of various factors, some of which are outside our control, such as:

the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our customers, supply chain or manufacturing capabilities;
the timing of governmental stimulus programs and academic research budgets;
the time it takes between the date customer orders and deposits are received, systems are shipped and accepted by our customers and full payment is received;
foreign currency exchange rates;
the time it takes for us to receive critical materials to manufacture our products;
general economic conditions; including the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy;
the time it takes to satisfy local customs requirements and other export/import requirements;
the time it takes for customers to construct or prepare their facilities for our products; and
the time required to obtain governmental licenses.

Several of these factors have in the past affected the amount and timing of revenue recognized on sales of our products and receipt of related payments and will continue to do so in the future. Accordingly, our operating results in any particular quarter may not necessarily be an indication of any future quarter’s operating performance

28

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to present a challenging operating environment and we are focused on four key priorities: the health and safety of our employees, customers and partners; maintaining business continuity and service levels for our customers; executing prudent temporary cost reductions; and delivering enabling research and diagnostic products to help fight the pandemic, and to support other essential priorities of our society.

Health and safety of our valued employees, customers and partners

While Bruker's businesses are essential, we have proceeded to implement strict social distancing, enhanced cleaning protocols and other preventative measures throughout our major facilities. While many of our office colleagues are working remotely, we are placing enhanced focus on our service organization and factory employees for whom work from home is not feasible. Where customer sites are accessible and open, our field service organizations operate under social distancing protocols to ensure the safety of customer sites, when our employees need to be on site.

We may experience decreased work efficiency and productivity as a result of the increased number of employees working from home. In addition, with this remote working model where employees are increasingly accessing our systems through VPN or internet connections, we may be subject to increased security risks, including the risks of cyberattacks or data breaches. Additionally, if any of our key leaders contract the virus and are unable to perform their duties for a period of time as the result of illness, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be adversely affected.

Maintaining business continuity and service levels to our customers

Ensuring our ability to supply our enabling technologies and solutions and maintain high service levels for our customers is another top priority for Bruker. In late March and during parts of April, several of our manufacturing sites underwent temporary controlled shutdowns or were operating at reduced capacity to implement new safety protocols, comply with local rules, and manage cost and inventory levels. These sites have ramped back up with expanding capacity and productivity levels. However, with concerns over a “second wave” of the virus, we may need to consider further temporary controlled shut downs or reduced capacity measures. In addition, we are continuing capital investments in production facilities for efficiencies and expansion and our supply chain remains resilient.  We do not currently anticipate being supply or capacity limited in the second half of 2020, provided that the current gradual re-opening trends continue in our key geographies without further disruptions or experiencing a second COVID-19 wave.

Executing prudent temporary cost reductions

Due to the impact of COVID-19, on our business and the global economy, we implemented temporary cost control and cost reduction measures. These temporary measures included short-time work for many of our European operations, temporary tiered salary reductions for our global leadership team and workforce, one to two week closures of select manufacturing locations, selective product manufacturing reductions, a hiring freeze, and curtailment of non-strategic discretionary spending. At the same time, we looked to minimize the disruption for our employees and preserve our ability to ramp up again with our highly trained and loyal work force. While pursuing cost savings throughout the business, we intend to maintain our important investments in key strategic initiatives. While some of these measures are being relaxed, we expect to continue to maintain certain temporary cost savings measures and expect these cost control and cost reduction measures to have an impact on the three month period ended September 30, 2020.

Delivering enabling research and diagnostic products to help fight the pandemic and to support other essential priorities of our society

Bruker is providing critical technologies and solutions to help combat the COVID-19 crisis, most notably our Microbiology and infectious disease diagnostics portfolio, to which we have added a SARS-COV-2 PCR test, and our nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry systems which are used in critical disease, therapeutic and vaccine research.

The COVID-19 global pandemic has driven volatility and uncertainty in global markets and has affected our operations significantly. We are actively working to manage the impact of COVID-19 on our operations; however, the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our business, directly or indirectly, cannot accurately be predicted at this time. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected productivity at our manufacturing facilities and has caused disruptions and delays in certain of our shipments to customers who have closed facilities during the pandemic. We are continuing to monitor the impact of these delays on our business and respond accordingly. For additional information on the various risks posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors included in this report.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to: revenue recognition; stock-based compensation expense; restructuring and other related charges; income taxes, including the recoverability of deferred tax assets; allowances for doubtful accounts; inventory reductions for excess and obsolete inventories; estimated fair values of long-lived assets used to measure the recoverability of long-lived assets; intangible assets and goodwill; expected future cash flows used to measure the recoverability of intangible assets and long-lived assets; warranty costs; derivative financial instruments; and contingent liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on our historical experience, current market and economic conditions, industry trends, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable and form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies and estimates to be both those most important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and those that require the most estimation and subjective judgment:

Revenue recognition;
Income taxes;
Inventories;
Goodwill, other intangible assets and other long-lived assets; and
Business combinations.

For a further discussion of our critical accounting policies, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Revenue

The decline in revenue was primarily related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers and certain of our operations as well as lower global instrumentation demand due to the pandemic.

Gross Profit

The decrease in gross profit was a result of lower volume and factory inefficiencies due to the disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.

31

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased to 24.1% of total revenue, from 25.4% of total revenue, for the comparable period in 2019. The decrease in expenses and as a percentage of total revenue are a result of the cost control and cost reduction measures due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased to 10.4% of total revenue, from 9.9% of total revenue, for the comparable period in 2019. The decrease in expenses and increase as a percentage of revenue are a result of cost control and cost reduction measures in comparison to lower revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Other Charges, Net

Other charges, net for the three months ended June 30, 2020 consisted primarily of $1.2 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $1.1 million of professional fees incurred in connection with investigation matters and $0.4 million of costs associated with our global information technology (IT) transformation initiative offset by $(0.8) million of acquisition-related benefit related to previous acquisitions. The IT transformation initiative is a multi-year project aimed at updating and integrating our global enterprise resource planning and human resource information systems.  

Other charges, net for the three months ended June 30, 2019 consisted of $0.8 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $0.8 million related to other fees, $1.1 million of costs associated with our global IT transformation initiative and $1.2 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2019 and 2018.

Operating Income

The decrease in operating margin was due to lower revenue and gross profit due to COVID-19 related disruptions to our customers’ and our own operations, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $2.7 million, realized and unrealized losses on foreign currency denominated transactions of $3.2 million and $0.8 million related to pension plan expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $3.7 million, realized and unrealized losses on foreign currency denominated transactions of $1.5 million and $0.6 million related to pension plan expenses. As a result of entering into interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements related to our new debt agreements, we reduced our interest expense by $1.8 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2020.

Income Tax Provision

The 2020 and 2019 effective tax rates were estimated using projected annual pre-tax income on a jurisdictional basis. Expected tax benefits, including tax credits and incentives, the impact of changes to valuation allowances and the effect of jurisdictional differences in statutory tax rates were also considered in the calculation.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 22.7% and 22.3%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the jurisdictional profit mix and the impact of discrete items in the period.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represented the minority shareholders' proportionate share of the net income recorded by our majority-owned subsidiaries. In January 2020, we acquired the remaining interest in our redeemable noncontrolling interest.

32

Net Income Attributable to Bruker Corporation

The decrease in net income and earnings per diluted share was primarily driven by lower revenues associated with COVID-19 disruptions and lower academic and industrial demand and, reduced gross and operating margins, partially offset by our cost control and cost reduction measures.

For financial reporting purposes, we aggregate the Bruker BioSpin Group and Bruker CALID Group as the BSI Life Science Segment. This aggregation reflects the similar economic characteristics, production processes, customer services provided, types and classes of customers, methods of distribution and regulatory environments.

The decline in revenue for the BSI Life Science Segment was due to disruptions to our customers’ and certain Bruker operations from the COVID-19 pandemic, lower demand in our academic, industrial and applied markets during the pandemic and delays in certain instrument deliveries and installations due to pandemic related customer lab closures. The decline in revenues for the BSI NANO Segment was due primarily to worldwide COVID-19 related academic customer lab closures, weaker industrial demand and certain temporary BSI NANO facility closures. The decline in revenue for the BEST Segment was primarily due to weaker superconductor demand during the end of the period ending June 30, 2020.

The decrease in gross profit was a result of lower volume, factory inefficiencies and unfavorable mix due to the disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.

34

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased to 26.3% of total revenue, from 25.7% of total revenue, for the comparable period in 2019. The decrease in expenses and increase as a percentage of total revenue are a result of the cost control and cost reduction measures due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased to 10.9% of total revenue, from 10.0% of total revenue, for the comparable period in 2019.  The increase as a percentage of revenue is a result of cost control and cost reduction measures in comparison to lower revenue due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Other Charges, Net

Other charges, net recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2020 consisted primarily of $4.5 million of professional fees incurred in connection with investigation matters, $2.7 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $1.2 million related to long-lived asset impairments, and $1.3 million of costs associated with our global information technology (IT) transformation initiative offset by $(1.9) million of acquisition-related charges related to previous acquisitions. The IT transformation initiative is a multi-year project aimed at updating and integrating our global enterprise resource planning and human resource information systems.  

Other charges, net recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2019 consisted of $1.9 million of restructuring costs related to closing facilities and implementing outsourcing and other restructuring initiatives, $1.3 million related to other fees, $2.0 million of costs associated with our global IT transformation initiative and $5.0 million of acquisition-related charges related to acquisitions completed in 2019 and 2018.

Operating Income

The decrease in operating margin was due to lower revenue and operating inefficiencies due to COVID-19 related disruptions to Bruker’s customers and some of our own operations, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures.  

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $4.7 million, realized and unrealized losses on foreign currency denominated transactions of $3.2 million and $1.8 million related to pension plan expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the primary components within interest and other income (expense), net were net interest expense of $6.8 million, realized and unrealized losses on foreign currency denominated transactions of $1.4 million and $1.2 million related to pension plan expenses. As a result of entering into interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements related to our new debt agreements, we reduced our interest expense by $4.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2020.  

Income Tax Provision

The 2020 and 2019 effective tax rates were estimated using projected annual pre-tax income on a jurisdictional basis. Expected tax benefits, including tax credits and incentives, the impact of changes to valuation allowances and the effect of jurisdictional differences in statutory tax rates were also considered in the calculation.

The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were 22.3% and 21.3%, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the jurisdictional profit mix and unfavorable discrete impact.

The operating margin declines in the BSI Life Science and BSI NANO segments were due to lower revenue and gross profit from COVID-19 related disruptions to our customers’ and own operations, partially offset by cost control and cost reduction measures. The decline in the operating margin for the BEST segment was due to lower revenue, unfavorable mix and charges related to planned restructuring actions, partially offset by reduced operating expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We anticipate that our existing cash and credit facilities will be sufficient to support our operating and investing needs for at least the next twelve months. Our future cash requirements could be affected by acquisitions that we may complete, repurchases of our common stock or the payment of dividends in the future. In addition, our ability to access capital and maintain liquidity may be impacted by the volatile market conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Historically, we have financed our growth and liquidity needs through cash flow generation and a combination of debt financings and issuances of common stock. In the future, there are no assurances that we will continue to generate cash flow from operations or that additional financing alternatives will be available to us, if required, or if available, will be obtained on terms favorable to us.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $46.8 million, resulting from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $97.5 million, partially offset by a change in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $50.7 million. The increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily caused by an increase in cash received from customers offset by purchases of inventory for orders in 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by operating activities was $24.8 million, resulting from consolidated net income adjusted for non-cash items of $118.0 million, partially offset by an increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures of $93.2 million. The increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily caused by an increase in inventory for orders in 2019.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash used in investing activities was $115.7 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $106.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributed to cash paid for purchases of property, of plant and equipment of $50.8 million, purchases of short-term investments of $50.0 million and acquisitions of $24.6 million offset by $6.1 million of maturities in short-term investments. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was attributed to cash paid for acquisitions of $71.9 million and purchases of property, plant and equipment of $28.6 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $138.2 million, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $41.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to $200.9 million in net proceeds from borrowings under the 2019 Revolving Credit Agreement offset in part by $12.3 million for the payment of dividends and $50.0 million of repurchases of common stock under our repurchase program. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to $172.1 million in net proceeds from borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement and $5.8 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock, net. This was offset by $100.0 million of repurchases of common stock under our repurchase program, a $15.0 million repayment under the Note Purchase Agreement, $12.6 million used for the payment of dividends and a $4.6 million repayment of other debt.

On December 11, 2019, we entered into (1) a new revolving credit agreement to establish a new revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $600 million; (2) a term loan agreement to establish a new term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $300 million; and (3) a note purchase agreement to issue and sell CHF 297 million aggregate principal amount of 1.01% senior notes due December 11, 2029. Floating interest rates under the term loan were simultaneously fixed through cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements into Euro ($150 million) and Swiss Franc ($150 million) rates carrying average effective interest rates of 0.94% and hedge our net investment in our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net assets. The new revolving credit agreement replaced our $500 million five-year revolving credit agreement established on October 27, 2015, that was terminated on December 11, 2019. In addition, we designated our CHF 297 million senior notes as a hedge in our net investment in our Swiss Franc denominated net assets. Proceeds from this financing were used to repay the outstanding borrowings under our prior 2015 revolving credit facility and we intend to use the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes and to support corporate strategic objectives. During December 2019, we entered into U.S. Dollar to Euro cross-currency swaps on our existing 2012 private placement notes of $105 million 4.31% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche C, due January 18, 2022, and the existing $100 million 4.46% Series 2012A Senior Notes, Tranche D, due January 18, 2024, resulting in an average effective interest rate of 2.25% on these instruments. The cross-currency swaps hedge our net investment in our Euro denominated net assets.

37

As of June 30, 2020, we have entered into several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million of U.S. Dollar to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $355.0 million of U.S. Dollar to Euro to hedge the variability in the movement of foreign currency exchange rates on portions of our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net asset investments. As a result of entering into these interest rate and cross currency swap agreements, we reduced our interest expense by $1.8 million and $4.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively. We anticipate these swap agreements will lower net interest expense by approximately $8.8 million in 2020 and $8.8 million in 2021.

In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved a Stock Repurchase Program under which repurchases of our common stock in the amount of up to $300.0 million were authorized to occur from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as we deem appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. We repurchased a total of 1,214,282 shares at an aggregate cost of $50.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.We repurchased a total of 2,300,635 share at an aggregate cost of $100.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The remaining authorization as of August 3, 2020 is $107.7 million. We intend to fund any additional repurchases from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The repurchased shares are reflected within Treasury stock in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 totaled $796.8 million and $684.9 million, respectively, of which $394.1 million and $301.1 million, respectively, related to cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments held outside of the U.S. in our foreign subsidiaries, most significantly in the Netherlands and Switzerland.

At December 31, 2019 and in accordance with the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”), we recorded state and foreign withholding taxes, as well as subsequent foreign currency translations on these withholding taxes as they are an obligation of the parent company, on the cash and liquid assets portion of the unremitted earnings and profits (E&P) of foreign subsidiaries expected to be repatriated from our foreign subsidiaries to the United States. We continue to be indefinitely reinvested in the amount of $477 million of non-cash E&P that is subject to the 2017 Tax Act deemed repatriation. If this E&P is ultimately distributed to the United States in the form of dividends or otherwise we would likely be subject to additional withholding tax. We will continue to evaluate our assertions on the cumulative historical outside basis differences in our foreign subsidiaries as of December 31, 2019. The amount of unrecognized deferred withholding taxes on the undistributed E&P was $58 million at December 31, 2019.

As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately $38.8 million of net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce state taxable income that are expected to expire at various times beginning in 2020; approximately $88.8 million of net operating losses available to reduce German federal income and trade taxes that are carried forward indefinitely and $29.7 million of other foreign net operating losses that are expected to expire at various times beginning in 2021. We also had U.S. state research and development tax credits of $7.7 million. Utilization of these credits and state net operating losses may be subject to annual limitations due to the ownership percentage change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions. In the event of a deemed change in control under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, an annual limitation on the utilization of net operating losses and credits may result in the expiration of all or a portion of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards.

Uncertain tax contingencies are positions taken or expected to be taken on an income tax return that may result in additional payments to tax authorities. If a tax authority agrees with the tax position taken or expected to be taken or the applicable statute of limitations expires, then additional payments will not be necessary.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Information regarding recent accounting standard changes and developments is incorporated by reference from Part I, Item 1, Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, of this document and should be considered an integral part of this Item 2. See Note 16 in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for recently adopted and issued accounting standards.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are potentially exposed to market risks associated with changes in foreign currency translation rates, interest rates and commodity prices. We selectively use financial instruments to reduce these risks. All transactions related to risk management techniques are authorized and executed pursuant to our policies and procedures. Analytical techniques used to manage and monitor foreign currency translation and interest rate risk include market valuations and sensitivity analysis.

Impact of Foreign Currencies

We generate a substantial portion of our revenues in international markets, principally Germany and other countries in the European Union, Switzerland and Japan, which exposes our operations to the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. Our costs related to sales in foreign currencies are largely denominated in the same respective currencies, reducing our transaction risk exposure. However, for foreign currency denominated sales in certain regions, such as Japan, where we do not incur significant costs denominated in that foreign currency, we are more exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

39

For sales not denominated in U.S. Dollars, if there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. Dollars, it will require more of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. Dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases, if we price our products in the foreign currency, we will receive less in U.S. Dollars than we  would have received before the rate increase went into effect. If we price our products in U.S. Dollars and competitors price their products in local currency, an increase in the relative strength of the U.S. Dollar could result in our prices not  being competitive in a market where business is transacted in the local currency. For example, if the U.S. Dollar strengthened against the Japanese Yen, our Japanese-based competitors would have a greater pricing advantage over us.

Changes in foreign currency translation rates decreased our revenue by 1.1% and 3.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries, where the functional currency is the local currency, are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the year. Adjustments resulting from financial statement translations are included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we recorded net losses (gains) from currency translation adjustments of $(3.4) million and $(2.4) million, respectively. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are reported in interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Our foreign currency translation gains, net were $(3.2) million and $(1.4) million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The impact of currency exchange rate movement can be positive or negative in any period. We periodically enter into forward currency contracts in order to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in currency translation have on our monetary transactions. Under these arrangements, we typically agree to purchase a fixed amount of a foreign currency in exchange for a fixed amount of U.S. Dollars or other currencies on specified dates with maturities of less than twelve months, with some agreements extending to longer periods. These transactions do not qualify for hedge accounting and, accordingly, the instrument is recorded at fair value with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

As of June 30, 2020, we have entered into several cross-currency and interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million of U.S. Dollar to Swiss Franc and a notional value of $355.0 million of U.S. Dollar to Euro to hedge the variability in the movement of foreign currency exchange rates on portions of our Euro and Swiss Franc denominated net asset investments. Under the GAAP hedge accounting guidance, changes in fair value  of the derivative that relates to changes  in the foreign currency spot rate are recorded in the currency translation adjustment in comprehensive income (loss) and remain in accumulated comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity until the sale or substantial liquidation of the foreign operation. The difference between the interest rate received and paid under the interest rate cross-currency swap derivative agreement is recorded in interest income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

From time to time, we have entered into forward exchange contracts designed to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in foreign currency have on our cash flows related to purchases and sales denominated in foreign currencies. Under these arrangements, we agree to purchase a fixed amount of a foreign currency in exchange for a fixed amount of U.S. Dollars or other currencies on specified dates typically with maturities of less than twelve months with some agreements extending to longer periods. These transactions are recorded at fair value with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in interest and other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts aggregating $91.6 million and $74.4 million, respectively. We will continue to evaluate our currency risks and in the future may utilize foreign currency contracts more frequently.

Impact of Interest Rates

We regularly invest excess cash in short-term investments that are subject to changes in interest rates. We believe that the market risk arising from holding these financial instruments is minimal because of our policy of investing in short-term financial instruments issued by highly rated financial institutions.

Our exposure related to adverse movements in interest rates is derived primarily from outstanding floating rate debt instruments that are indexed to short-term market rates. We currently have a higher level of fixed rate debt than variable rate debt, which limits the exposure to adverse movements in interest rates.

40

Impact of Commodity Prices

We are exposed to certain commodity risks associated with prices for various raw materials. The prices of copper and certain other raw materials, particularly niobium-tin, used to manufacture superconductors have increased significantly over the last decade. Copper and niobium-tin are the main components of low temperature superconductors and continued commodity price increases for copper and niobium, as well as other raw materials, may negatively affect our profitability. Periodically, we enter into commodity forward purchase contracts to minimize the volatility that fluctuations in the price of copper have on our sales of these products. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had fixed price commodity contracts with notional amounts aggregating $11.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The fair value of the fixed price commodity contracts at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $1.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. We will continue to evaluate our commodity risks and may utilize commodity forward purchase contracts more frequently in the future.

Inflation

We do not believe inflation had a material impact on our business or operating results during any of the periods presented.

ITEM 4.      CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) by others within our organization. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2020 due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, as described below and in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Notwithstanding this material weakness, management concluded that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Other than as discussed below under the heading "Remediation Plans", there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Material Weaknesses

During the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  The material weaknesses identified were as follows:

We did not design and maintain an effective control environment commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. Specifically, we lacked a sufficient complement of personnel in our corporate tax department and a U.S. subsidiary with an appropriate level of tax and accounting knowledge, training and experience to appropriately analyze, record and disclose tax and accounting matters timely and accurately. This material weakness contributed to the following additional material weaknesses:

We did not maintain effective internal controls with respect to accounting for income taxes. Specifically, our controls over income taxes did not operate effectively as designed. This control deficiency resulted in immaterial misstatements to the income tax provision, income taxes payable and uncertain tax position reserves accounts in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

41

We did not maintain effective internal controls with respect to accounting for revenue transactions at a U.S. subsidiary. Specifically, our controls over revenue recognition at a U.S. subsidiary did not operate effectively as designed. This control deficiency resulted in immaterial errors to revenue, accounts receivable and deferred revenue accounts in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of the interim or annual financial statements that would result in a material misstatement to our annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, our management determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses.

Remediation Plans

As part of our routine efforts to maintain adequate and effective internal control over financial reporting, we initiated and implemented measures designed to improve our financial statement closing process and enhance certain internal controls processes and procedures. As indicated below, a number of these initiatives relate directly to strengthening our control over accounting for income taxes and revenue transactions and address specific control deficiencies which contributed to the material weaknesses. As a result of these efforts, as of the date of this filing we believe we have made progress toward remediating the underlying causes of the material weaknesses. Specifically, we have undertaken the following steps in 2020 to remediate the deficiencies underlying this material weakness:

We optimized our tax accounting resources to obtain the right balance with specific international tax expertise to strengthen tax accounting review procedures in significant jurisdictions;
We plan to implement accelerated annual close procedures and controls during the fourth quarter of 2020 to allow for more timely issue identification and increase the frequency of review procedures and controls performed around the calculation and reporting of certain tax balances;
We  identified areas to leverage the functionality of our tax provision software to automate tasks and control various workflows;
We expanded our revenue recognition resources to strengthen revenue transaction review procedures; and
We implemented additional revenue transaction review procedures within the U.S. subsidiary to assist in identification and review of more significant revenue transactions.

We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment and believe that these remediation efforts represent significant improvements in our control environment. The identified material weakness in internal control will not be considered fully remediated until the internal controls over these areas have been in operation for a sufficient period of time for our management to conclude that the material weaknesses have been fully remediated. We will continue our efforts to test the new controls in order to make this final determination.

PART II      OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in lawsuits, claims, and proceedings, including, but not limited to, patent and commercial matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business. There are no such matters pending that we currently believe are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our business or to our consolidated financial statements.

On September 25, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, a subsidiary of Carl Zeiss AG (Zeiss), sued Luxendo GmbH (Luxendo), a subsidiary of Bruker Corporation, for infringement of a recently registered German utility model patent licensed to Zeiss pertaining to one specific Luxendo product category. We intend to vigorously defend against this claim.

On September 23, 2019, in a complaint filed in the Düsseldorf, Germany, District Court, Micromass UK Limited (Micromass), a subsidiary of Waters Corporation, sued Bruker Corporation, as well as its affiliate, Bruker Daltonik GmbH, for infringement of a European patent pertaining to our timsTOF product line. On March 6, 2020, we were notified that Micromass has expanded its complaint in Düsseldorf and now asserts another recently granted European patent in Germany. We intend to vigorously defend against these claims.

42

In addition, we are subject to regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the United States and other countries in which we operate. From time to time, we are the subject of governmental investigations often involving regulatory, marketing and other business practices. These governmental investigations may result in the commencement of civil and criminal proceedings, fines, penalties and administrative remedies which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity.

In August 2018, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) informed the Company that it was conducting an investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including Bruker Korea Co., Ltd (Bruker Korea).  The Company cooperated fully with the KFTC and on June 16, 2019, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $20,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter. As a result of the KFTC’s decision, the Korea Public Procurement Service (PPS) imposed a three month suspension on Bruker Korea’s ability to bid for or conduct sales to Korean government entities which ended on March 27, 2020. Sales to Korean government entities were less than 3% of the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In late August 2019, the KFTC informed us that it was conducting a separate investigation into the public tender bidding activities of a number of life science instrument companies operating in Korea, including five public tenders involving Bruker Korea during 2015. We cooperated fully with the KFTC and on July 8, 2020, the KFTC announced its decision to impose a fine of approximately $11,000 on Bruker Korea and declined to impose any criminal liability against Bruker Korea in connection with this matter.

ITEM IA.    RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth  in  this  report,  you  should  carefully consider the factors  discussed  in  Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal 2020 have been and will continue to be adversely affected by the ongoing novel coronavirus disease-2019, or COVID-19, outbreak.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, referred to as COVID-19, surfaced in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The virus has spread to over 200 countries and territories and continues to spread globally, including in the United States. The impact of this pandemic has been and will likely continue to be extensive in many aspects of society, which has resulted in and will continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world.

Impacts to our business include temporary closures of many of our government and university customers and our suppliers, disruptions or restrictions on our employees’ and customers’ ability to travel, and delays in product installations or shipments to and from affected countries. In an effort to halt the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of countries, including the United States, have implemented and continue to implement significant restrictions on travel, shelter in place or stay at home orders, and business closures. Certain jurisdictions, including many within the United States, have also begun implementing policies with the goal of re-opening these markets only to return to restrictions in the face of increases in new COVID-19 cases. For example, a number of states, including California, Massachusetts and New Jersey where we have significant operations, had issued shelter in place or stay-at-home orders. Although these states have begun implementing phased re-opening policies, many of our employees in these areas continue to work remotely and any re-openings may be delayed or pulled back if the virus continues to spread. In addition, a number of our production facilities have either temporarily closed or are operating on a reduced capacity. Most commercial activity in sales and marketing, and customer demonstrations and applications training, are either being conducted remotely or postponed. Customer purchasing departments are operating at reduced capacity, and many customers have delayed or cut capital expenditures and operating budgets. These travel restrictions, business closures and operating reductions at Bruker, our customers, our distributors, and/or our suppliers have and will continue to adversely impact our operations worldwide, including our ability to manufacture, sell or distribute our products, as well as cause temporary closures of our foreign distributors, or the facilities of suppliers or customers. This disruption of our employees, distributors, suppliers or customers has and will continue to impact our global sales and operating results.  During the six months ended June 30, 2020, our revenue declined 10.8% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to COVID-19 related disruptions. We anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic and challenges to our customers’ and our own operations will continue to have a significant negative impact on our 2020 financial results.

43

We have experienced decreased work efficiency and productivity as a result of the increased number of employees working from home.  In addition, with this remote working model where employees are increasingly accessing our systems through VPN or internet connections, we may be subject to increased security risks, including the risks of cyberattacks or data breaches. Additionally, if any of our key leaders contract the virus and are unable to perform their duties for a period of time as the result of illness, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be adversely affected.

We continue to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our commercial operations, including its continued impact on our revenue in 2020. However, we cannot at this time accurately predict what effects these conditions will ultimately have on our operations due to uncertainties relating to the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length or severity of the travel restrictions, business closures, and other safety and precautionary measures imposed by the governments of impacted countries. The pandemic has also adversely affected the economies and financial markets of many countries, which has and likely will continue to affect demand for our products and our operating results.

There have been no other material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 2.        UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved and we announced a share repurchase program under  which repurchases of our common stock of up to $300.0 million may occur from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as we deem appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations (the “2019 Repurchase Program”). We repurchased a total of 1,214,282 shares at an aggregate cost of $50.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.We repurchased a total of 2,300,635 shares at an aggregate cost of $100.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The remaining authorization as of August 3, 2020 is $107.7 million. We intend to fund any additional repurchases from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The repurchased shares are reflected within Treasury stock in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020.

The following table sets forth all purchases made by or on behalf of the Company or any “affiliated purchaser,” as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act, of shares of our common stock during each month in the second quarter of 2020.

ITEM 5.       OTHER INFORMATION

On August 6, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company approved amendments to and the restatement of the Company’s bylaws (as amended and restated, the “By-laws”). The amendments to the By-laws fall into the following two categories:

Enhancements to Advance Notices of Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

Specify the procedures that stockholders need to follow in submitting stockholder proposals and director nominations for consideration at a meeting of stockholders.  (Sections 2.3(a), (b), and (c) of the By-laws.)

44

Enhance the information that the Board of Directors has access to regarding business proposed by stockholders for consideration at stockholder meetings and/or proposed director nominations, and the proponents thereof, so as to facilitate the ability of the Board to make informed voting recommendations to stockholders on any matter that will come before the meeting. (Sections 2.3(b) and (c) of the By-laws.)
Provide procedural safeguards to ensure that only stockholder proposals and director nominations that comply with the language and intent of the advance notice provisions will be considered at meetings of stockholders. (Sections 2.3(b) and (c) of the By-laws.)
Update the advance notice provisions to require director nominees to submit to the Company a completed director questionnaire. (Section 2.3(d) of the By-laws.)

Enhancements to Provisions Relating to Stockholder Actions by Written Consent

Clarify that stockholders may take corporate action, without a meeting, with the written consent of the same number of holders of outstanding stock that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting, consistent with Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. (Section 2.10(a) of the By-laws).
Provide customary procedures for stockholders to request that the Board of Directors set a record date for determining the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate actions in writing without a meeting. (Sections 2.10(b) and 2.12 of the By-laws.)
Provide that the Company shall engage independent inspectors of elections for the purpose of promptly reviewing the validity of written consents of stockholders (and any revocations) delivered to the Company prior to the effectiveness of any such corporate actions by written consent. (Section 2.10(c) of the By-laws.)

In addition to the foregoing, there were other immaterial changes to the By-laws including, but not limited to, typographical corrections and the definition of certain terms.

The foregoing description of the various amendments to the By-laws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the By-laws that were adopted by the Board on August 6, 2020, a copy of which is attached to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
