Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, are based on the current expectations of the management of Teledyne and Micropac and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. The forward-looking statements contained herein may include statements about the expected effects of Teledyne’s proposed acquisition of Micropac, the anticipated timing and scope of the proposed transaction and anticipated synergies related to the proposed transaction, and other strategic options. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “projects”, “intends”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “targets”, “estimates”, “will” and words of similar import that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All statements made in this communication that are not historical in nature should be considered forward-looking. By its nature, forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance or results and involves risks and uncertainties because it relates to events and depends on circumstances that will occur in the future.

Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Many factors could change anticipated results, including the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of Teledyne or Micropac or both to terminate the merger agreement; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Teledyne or Micropac in connection with the merger agreement; the failure to satisfy any of the conditions to the proposed transaction on a timely basis or at all; the inability to complete the acquisition and integration of Micropac successfully, to retain customers and key employees and to achieve operating synergies, including the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where Teledyne and Micropac do business; the possibility that the proposed transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; the parties’ ability to meet expectations regarding the timing, completion and accounting and tax treatments of the proposed transaction; changes in relevant tax and other laws; the inability to develop and market new competitive products; inherent uncertainties involved in the estimates and judgments used in the preparation of financial statements and the providing of estimates of financial measures, in accordance with U.S. GAAP and related standards; and operating results of Micropac being lower than anticipated.

Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in Teledyne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, June 30 and September 29, 2024, all of which are on file with the SEC and available in the “Investors” section of Teledyne’s website, teledyne.com, under the heading “Investor Information” and in other documents Teledyne files with the SEC, and in Micropac’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2023, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended February 24, May 25 and August 24, 2024, all of which are on file with the SEC and in other documents Micropac files with the SEC.
