Teradyne Reports Third Quarter Results
BOSTON--Oct. 1, 20034, 2003--Teradyne, Inc. reported sales of $329 million for the third quarter of 2003, and a net loss on a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) basis of $53.5 million, or $0.28 per share. The pro forma net loss for the third quarter of 2003 was $26.8 million, or $0.14 per share before special charges. Net orders increased 10% from the previous quarter, to $336 million."On balance, we are encouraged by our results in the quarter," said George Chamillard, Teradyne Chairman and CEO. "Our orders improved, and our new products are gaining momentum. The third quarter marked our eighth successive period of increasing orders and our book-to-bill ratio was greater than 1.0 for the first time in three years. In addition, we made progress lowering costs during the quarter, enabling us to continue on the path to profitability.
"Therefore, in the fourth quarter, we are projecting sales to be between $335 to $340 million, and break-even results, on a pro forma, operating basis."

Pro Forma Results
In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, Teradyne also discloses pro forma or non-GAAP results of operations that exclude certain charges. Teradyne reports pro forma results in order to better assess and reflect operating performance. These results are provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the pro forma measure helps indicate underlying trends in Teradyne's business, and management uses pro forma measures to plan and forecast future periods, and to establish operational goals.
Earnings guidance is provided only on a pro forma basis due to the difficulty in forecasting and quantifying the amounts that would be required to be included in the GAAP measure. Although Teradyne expects certain known charges, such as some amount of severance due to workforce reductions, other additional charges excluded from the pro forma measure are dependent on numerous presently unknown factors. For example, further goodwill or real estate impairment charges are dependent upon future market conditions and valuations that are not presently determinable.
Pro forma information is not determined using GAAP and should not be considered superior to or as a substitute for GAAP measures or data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
