(1) Income Tax Expense for the quarter ended October 3, 2004
includes a $3 million IRS Settlement charge related to the closing out
of the audits for tax years 1999 through 2001, and an increase in the
estimated annual tax rate from 10% to 10.5%.
(2) Under GAAP, when calculating diluted earnings per share,
convertible debentures must be assumed to have converted if the effect
on EPS would be dilutive. For Teradyne, dilution occurs when earnings
are greater than $0.24 per share per quarter. Accordingly, for the
quarter ended October 3, 2004, diluted shares do not assume the
conversion of the convertible debentures as the effect on EPS would be
anti-dilutive. Diluted shares for the nine months ended October 3,
2004 assumes the conversion of the convertible debentures, as the
effect of the conversion on EPS would be dilutive. Accordingly, 15.2
million shares have been included in diluted shares and net interest
expense of $11.1 million has been added back to net income for the
diluted earnings per share calculation.
