Item 8. Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Revvity, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Revvity, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 27, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Discontinued Operations — Gain on Sale — Refer to Notes 4 and 20 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
On March 13, 2023, the Company completed the previously announced sale of certain assets and the equity interests of certain entities constituting the Company’s Applied, Food and Enterprise Services businesses (the “Business”). The Company received cash proceeds of $2.13 billion and is entitled to two elements of additional consideration that become payable upon the resolution of certain events. First, the Company is entitled to proceeds of $75.0 million as consideration for the Company’s ceasing use of the PerkinElmer brand and related trademarks and transferring them to the purchaser (“Brand Sale”). This consideration is expected to be received in installments through the first half of 2025. The Company is also entitled to proceeds of up to $150.0 million that is contingent on the proceeds that the purchaser and its affiliates receive on a subsequent sale or other capital event related to the Business (“Contingent Gain”).
In order to determine the gain on disposal related to the Business, the Company was required to make significant judgments related to the accounting treatment of the Brand Sale and the Contingent Gain, which included assessing the appropriateness of including the future payments related to the Brand Sale and Contingent Gain in the proceeds at closing and measuring the fair value of the Contingent Gain. As a result, auditing the recognition of the Brand Sale and the recognition and measurement of the Contingent Gain required a high degree of auditor judgment and increased effort, including the involvement of specialists.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the accounting treatment for the recognition of the Brand Sale and the recognition and measurement of the Contingent Gain included the following, among others:
a. We tested the effectiveness of management’s controls over the accounting conclusions reached and the recognition and measurement of the Brand Sale and Contingent Gain.
b. We obtained and read the purchase and sale agreement and other documents related to the sale of the Business in evaluating the reasonableness of the Company’s recognition of the Brand Sale and the Contingent Gain.
c. With the assistance of professionals in our firm having expertise in divestiture accounting, we read and evaluated the Company’s accounting treatment for the inclusion of the Brand Sale and Contingent Gain in the proceeds from the sale of the Business at the closing date.
d. With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we confirmed the acceptability of the valuation methodology selected, and we developed an independent estimate of the fair value of the Contingent Gain and compared our estimate to the recorded amount.
