Additionally, if we are unable to execute on divestitures we have undertaken, such as our recently announced decision to divest our Immunodiagnostics business in China, we may be unable to achieve our strategic objectives, could incur unexpected transaction costs and may disrupt our ongoing business operations.

Uncertainties related to the development, deployment and use of AI to advance our product offerings and improve internal operations may result in harm to our business and reputation.
Current report
We are advancing AI across our product and service offerings, and we are in the initial phases of expanding AI into the core functions of our business. The development and deployment of AI presents both risks and opportunities, and the implementation process could adversely impact the operations of our business as a whole. AI algorithms utilized in the deployment may be flawed or based on datasets that are biased or insufficient, and do not adequately take into account the underlying nature of our business. Failure to adequately train our employees during the deployment of AI could adversely impact our business or result in delays or errors in our offerings. Our competitiveness could also be negatively impacted by our failure to timely develop or deploy AI in our products and services, particularly if our competitors are successful in AI advancements in their products and services. The development of AI technology will require significant investment in resources and human capital and could increase our costs. There is uncertainty related to the legal and regulatory landscape surrounding rapidly evolving AI technologies, particularly in the areas of cybersecurity, intellectual property, and privacy and data protection. Failure to comply or appropriately respond to this developing landscape may result in increased legal liability, adverse regulatory action, or reputational damage.
Current report
We cannot predict the scope, timing, or impact of threatened U.S. tariffs on imports, the extent to which other countries may impose retaliatory trade restrictions, or the terms of future trade policy changes. Tariffs implemented during fiscal year 2025 increased our cost of revenue by approximately $25 million and reduced our gross margin by approximately $20 million, primarily affecting products manufactured in Europe for the U.S. market. While we have implemented mitigation strategies including manufacturing optimization, supplier collaboration, pricing adjustments, and temporary cost measures, these actions may not fully offset the impact of existing or future tariffs. Additional tariffs or trade restrictions may materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, and competitive position.
Removed paragraphs (1)
Previous report
We cannot yet predict the ultimate effect of the recently imposed and threatened U.S. tariffs on imports, or the extent to which other countries will impose further quotas, duties, tariffs, taxes or other similar restrictions upon imports or exports in the future, nor can we predict future trade policy or the terms of any renegotiated trade agreements and their impact on our business. We anticipate that recently enacted tariffs may increase our cost of revenue for the current fiscal year. While we may experience a decline in operating income, themitigating actions that we have taken and plan to take are aimed at minimizing the financial exposure of increased tariffs.

Previous wording
Our customers include pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, laboratories, academic and research institutions, public health authorities, private healthcare organizations, doctors and government agencies. Our quarterly revenue and results of operations are highly dependent on the volume and timing of orders received during the quarter. In addition, our revenues and earnings forecasts for future quarters are often based on the expected trends in our markets. However, the markets we serve do not always experience the trends that we may expect. Negative fluctuations in our customers’ markets, the inability of our customers to secure credit or funding, rest rictions in capital expenditures, general economic conditions, cuts in government funding, deficit reduction efforts or other actions that reduce or freeze the availability of government funding for healthcare and research or unfavorable changes in government regulations would likely result in a reduction in demand for our products and services and additional pricing pressures, as well as create potential collection risk associated with those sales. In addition, government funding is subject to economic conditions and the political process, which is inherently fluid and unpredictable. Recently announced and proposed changes in U.S. funding and regulation has created a more cautious spending environment for our customers and could cause them to become more conservative with both instrumentation and consumable purchases due to funding and regulatory uncertainty. Our revenues may be adversely affected if our customers delay or reduce purchases as a result of uncertainties surrounding the approval of government or industrial funding proposals or reductions in government funding. Such declines could harm our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and trading price of our common stock, and could limit our ability to sustain profitability.

Previous wording
Our business is affected by global economic and political conditions as well as the state of the financial markets, particularly as the United States and other countries balance concerns around debt, inflation, trade protectionism, growth and budget allocations in their policy initiatives. There can be no assurance that global economic conditions and financial markets will not worsen and that we will not experience any adverse effects that may be material to our consolidated cash flows, results of operations, financial position or our ability to access capital, such as the adverse effects resulting from a prolonged shutdown in government operations both in the United States and internationally. Our business is also affected by local economic environments, including inflation, recession, financial liquidity, interest rates and currency volatility or devaluation. Environmental events and political changes, including trade barriers and tariffs, such as the recent tariffs announced or imposed on U.S. trading partners and retaliatory measures threatened or imposed in response, and war or other conflicts, such as the current conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, some of which may be disruptive, could interfere with our supply chain, our customers and all of our activities in a particular location.

As of September 28, 2025, our total assets included $9.0 billion of net intangible assets. Net intangible assets consist principally of goodwill associated with acquisitions and costs associated with securing patent rights, trademark rights, customer relationships, core technology and technology licenses, net of accumulated amortization. We test goodwill at least annually for potential impairment by comparing the carrying value to the fair value of the reporting unit to which it is assigned. All of our amort izing intangible assets are also evaluated for impairment should events occur that call into question the value of the intangible assets.
Current wording
As of April 5, 2026, our total assets included $8.9 billion of net intangible assets. Net intangible assets consist principally of goodwill associated with acquisitions and costs associated with securing patent rights, trademark rights, customer relationships, core technology and technology licenses, net of accumulated amortization. We test goodwill at least annually for potential impairment by comparing the carrying value to the fair value of the reporting unit to which it is assigned. All of our amortizing intangible assets are also evaluated for impairment should events occur that call into question the value of the intangible assets.
Previous wording
Our next annual goodwill impairment measurement date is November 3, 2025. While there has been no triggering event requiring an interim impairment assessment through September 28, 2025, adverse changes in our business, adverse changes in the key valuation assumptions used to determine the fair value of our reporting units, or the failure to grow our Life Sciences and Diagnostics segments, could result in an impairment of our intangible assets, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

Patent and trade secret protection is important to us because developing new products, processes and technologies gives us a competitive advantage, although it is time-consuming and expensive. We own many United States and foreign patents and intend to apply for additional patents. Patent applications we file, however, may not result in issued patents or, if they do, the claims allowed in the patents may be narrower than what is needed to protect fully our products, processes and technologies. The expiration of our previously issued patents may cause us to lose a competitive advantage in certain of the products and services we provide. Similarly, applications to register our trademarks may not be granted in all countries in which they are filed. For our intellectual property that is protected by keeping it secret, such as trade secrets and know-how, we may not use adequate measures to protect this intellectual property.
