“In the third quarter, we continued to achieve organic growth in our commercial imaging and aerospace businesses. Sales of electronic test and measurement instrumentation also increased nicely,” said Robert Mehrabian, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “I am very pleased with our execution across Teledyne, especially given the generally weaker capital spending environment. Our earnings and cash from operations were at record levels for any third quarter. Furthermore, Teledyne’s GAAP operating margin was an all-time record. Despite continued weakness in energy markets and while we remain cautious, we also believe that our marine instrumentation businesses, collectively, have bottomed. Finally, given our resilient business portfolio and strong balance sheet, we are committed to ongoing investment in research and development, as well as disciplined acquisitions.”
