Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In addition, significant estimates were made in estimating future cash flows to assess potential impairment of assets and in determining the fair value of acquired intangible assets (Note 2) and the ultimate loss from abandoning leases at facilities being exited (Note 14). Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which affects the accounting for stock-based compensation. The new guidance simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the

10

THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC INC.

(Unaudited)

company in 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the company's consolidated financial statements; however, the impact in any given period will be dependent upon changes in the company's stock price, the volume of employee stock option exercises and the timing of service- and performance-based restricted unit vestings.

In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheets as lease liabilities, initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments, with corresponding right-of-use assets. The new guidance also sets forth new disclosure requirements related to leases. The guidance is effective for the company in 2019 and must be adopted using a modified retrospective method. Early adoption is permitted. The company is currently evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. This guidance retains the current accounting for classifying and measuring investments in debt securities and loans, but requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with subsequent changes recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or requiring consolidation. The guidance also changes the accounting for investments without a readily determinable fair value and that do not qualify for the practical expedient permitted by the guidance to estimate fair value. A policy election can be made for these investments whereby estimated fair value may be measured at cost and adjusted in subsequent periods for any impairment or changes in observable prices of identical or similar investments. The guidance is effective for the company in 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued new guidance which eliminates the requirement for an acquirer in a business combination to restate prior period financial statements for measurement period adjustments. The new guidance requires that the cumulative impact of a measurement period adjustment (including the impact on prior periods) be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustment is identified. The new guidance also sets forth new disclosure requirements related to the adjustments. The guidance is effective for the company in 2016. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated balance sheet.

In July 2015, the FASB issued new guidance which requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This guidance does not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO). The guidance is effective for the company in 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued new guidance which requires the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with the current treatment of debt discounts. The guidance is effective for the company in 2016. As a result of adoption of this standard, debt issuance costs of $55 million were reclassified from other assets to reduce long-term debt as of December 31, 2015.

In May 2014, the FASB issued new revenue recognition guidance which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. The new standard also requires significantly expanded disclosures regarding the qualitative and quantitative information of an entity's nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. During the first and second quarters of 2016, the FASB issued additional guidance and clarification relating to identifying performance obligations, assessing collectability, licensing, principal verses agent considerations, sales tax, non-cash consideration, contract modification, disclosures and the handling of completed contracts at transition. The guidance is currently effective for the company in 2018. Early adoption is permitted in 2017. The company is currently evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Acquisitions

The company’s acquisitions have historically been made at prices above the determined fair value of the acquired identifiable assets, resulting in goodwill, due to expectations of the synergies that will be realized by combining the businesses. These synergies include the elimination of redundant facilities, functions and staffing; use of the company’s existing commercial infrastructure to expand sales of the acquired businesses’ products; and use of the commercial infrastructure of the acquired businesses to cost-effectively expand sales of company products.

Acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and the acquired companies’ results have been included in the accompanying financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. Acquisition transaction costs are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses as incurred.

2016

In May 2016, the company signed an agreement to acquire, within the Analytical Instruments segment, FEI Company, a North America-based provider of high-performance electron microscopy, for approximately $4.2 billion in cash. The acquisition will strengthen the company's analytical instrument portfolio with the addition of high-end electron microscopes. Revenues of FEI were $930 million in 2015. The transaction, which is expected to close by the end of 2016, is subject to the approval of the FEI shareholders and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including applicable regulatory approvals. The company has committed debt financing for the acquisition (Note 9) although it intends to replace part of the committed financing with long-term debt prior to completing the acquisition and to use such borrowings and cash on hand to fund the transaction.

On March 31, 2016, the company acquired, within the Life Sciences Solutions segment, Affymetrix, Inc., a North America-based provider of cellular and genetic analysis products, for a total purchase price of $1.34 billion, net of cash acquired, including the assumption of $254 million of debt. The acquisition expands the company's existing portfolio of antibodies and assays for flow cytometry and single-cell biology applications. Revenues of Affymetrix were $360 million in 2015. The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the identifiable net assets and, accordingly, $702 million was allocated to goodwill, none of which is tax deductible.

In addition, in 2016, the company acquired, within the Analytical Instruments segment, a provider of X-ray diffraction solutions for material science and industrial applications and, within the Life Sciences Solutions segment, selected assets of an existing channel partner, for an aggregate purchase price of $5 million.

During 2016, the company made contingent purchase price payments totaling $1 million for acquisitions completed prior to 2016. The contingent purchase price payments were contractually due to the sellers upon achievement of certain performance criteria at the acquired businesses.

The components of the purchase price and net assets acquired for 2016 acquisitions are as follows:

(In millions)	Affymetrix			Other			Total

The weighted-average amortization periods for definite-lived intangible assets acquired in 2016 are 15 years for customer relationships, 9 years for product technology and 9 years for tradenames and other. The weighted average amortization period for all definite-lived intangible assets acquired in 2016 is 12 years.

The company recorded a deferred tax liability of $156 million in the acquisition accounting related to the outside basis difference of the Affymetrix Singapore operations as the company does not intend to permanently reinvest the pre-acquisition Singapore earnings.

The company's results would not have been materially different had the 2016 acquisitions occurred at the beginning of 2015.

Note 3. Business Segment Information

The company’s financial performance is reported in four segments. A description of each segment follows.

Life Sciences Solutions: provides an extensive portfolio of reagents, instruments and consumables used in biological and medical research, discovery and production of new drugs and vaccines as well as diagnosis of disease. These products and services are used by customers in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, agricultural, clinical, academic, and government markets.

Analytical Instruments: provides a broad offering of instruments, consumables, software and services that are used for a range of applications in the laboratory, on the production line and in the field. These products and services are used by customers in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, academic, government, environmental and other research and industrial markets, as well as the clinical laboratory.

Specialty Diagnostics: provides a wide range of diagnostic test kits, reagents, culture media, instruments and associated products used to increase the speed and accuracy of diagnoses. These products are used by customers in healthcare, clinical, pharmaceutical, industrial and food safety laboratories.

Laboratory Products and Services: provides virtually everything needed for the laboratory, including a combination of self-manufactured and sourced products and an extensive service offering. These products and services are used by customers in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, academic, government and other research and industrial markets, as well as the clinical laboratory.

The company’s management evaluates segment operating performance based on operating income before certain charges/credits to cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, principally associated with acquisition accounting; restructuring and other costs/income including costs arising from facility consolidations such as severance and abandoned lease expense and gains and losses from the sale of real estate and product lines as well as from significant litigation-related matters; and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. The company uses this measure because it helps management understand and evaluate the segments’ core operating results and facilitates comparison of performance for determining compensation.

As of July 2, 2016, there was $86 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options granted. The cost is expected to be recognized through 2020 with a weighted average amortization period of 2.5 years.

As of July 2, 2016, there was $159 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock unit awards. The cost is expected to be recognized through 2019 with a weighted average amortization period of 2.2 years.

Note 6. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans

Employees of a number of the company’s non-U.S. and certain U.S. subsidiaries participate in defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all full-time employees at those subsidiaries. Some of the plans are unfunded, as permitted under the plans and applicable laws. The company also maintains postretirement healthcare programs at several acquired businesses where certain employees are eligible to participate. The costs of the postretirement healthcare programs are generally funded on a self-insured and insured-premium basis.

Note 7. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes in the accompanying statement of income differs from the provision calculated by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% to income from continuing operations before provision for income taxes due to the following:

	Six Months Ended
	July 2,			June 27,
(In millions)	2016			2015
Provision for Income Taxes at Statutory Rate	$	330.4		$	310.0
Increases (Decreases) Resulting From:
Foreign rate differential	(108.3		)	(72.6		)
Income tax credits	(187.6		)	(204.1		)
Manufacturing deduction	(15.7		)	(17.6		)
Singapore tax holiday	(8.6		)	(7.5		)
Impact of change in tax laws and apportionment on deferred taxes	8.8			(14.4		)
Nondeductible expenses	3.9			4.4
Tax return reassessments and settlements	1.0			(7.0		)
State income taxes, net of federal tax	(3.6		)	(3.0		)
Other, net	4.7			0.7
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes	$	25.0		$	(11.1	)

In 2016, the company implemented tax planning initiatives related to non-U.S. subsidiaries. These non-U.S. subsidiaries incurred foreign tax obligations, and made cash and deemed distributions to the company’s U.S. operations which resulted in no net tax cost. As a result of these distributions, the company benefitted from U.S. foreign tax credits of $114 million, offset in part by additional U.S. income taxes of $40 million on the related foreign income (which reduced the benefit from the foreign rate differential in 2016). The foreign tax credits are the result of foreign earnings remitted or deemed remitted to the U.S. during the reporting year and the U.S. treatment of taxes paid in the foreign jurisdictions in the years those profits were originally earned.

The company has significant activities in Singapore and has received considerable tax incentives. The local taxing authority granted the company pioneer company status which provides an incentive encouraging companies to undertake activities that have the effect of promoting economic or technological development in Singapore. This incentive equates to a tax exemption on earnings associated with most of the company’s manufacturing activities in Singapore and continues through December 31, 2021. In 2016 and 2015, the impact of this tax holiday decreased the annual effective tax rates by 0.9% and 0.8%, respectively, and increased diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.02 and $0.02, respectively.

The company's unrecognized tax benefits increased to $391 million at July 2, 2016, from $350 million at December 31, 2015. Of the total increase, $43 million resulted from tax planning related to prior years which resulted in amended tax filings, offset in part by a reduction of $1 million from the resolution of tax audits for which a reserve had previously been established.
